John 10
1 “Most certainly, I tell you, one who doesn’t enter by the door into the sheep fold, but climbs up some other way, is a thief and a robber.
Jesu ing, “Awitak ka nik kqawn peek khqi, tuu chawmkeng awh lut kaana, ak chang benna kawng ak kai thlang taw, quk-ai ingkaw damiah na awm hy.
2 But one who enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
Tuu chawmkeng khuiawh kawng ak lut thlang taw tuukhaikung na awm hy.
3 The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
Vawng chawmkeng ak qehkung ing anih aham chawh ce awng pehy, tuukhqi ingawm ak awi ce ngai pe uhy. A tuukhqi ce aming ming ing khy khqi qip nawh ceh pyi hy.
4 Whenever he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.
A tuukhqi boeih ce a ceh pyi coengawh, ami hai na maa pek khqi hy, a tuukhqi ing ak awi ce hat unawh a hu awh hqut uhy.
5 They will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him; for they don’t know the voice of strangers.”
Thlakchang a hu awh ityk awh awm am bat hly uhy; ak awi ce a mami hat dawngawh, cen taak lat kawm uh,” tinak khqi hy.
6 Jesus spoke this parable to them, but they didn’t understand what he was telling them.
Jesu ing vawhkaw nyhtahnaak awi ve kqawn pe hlai hy, ak kqawn peek khqi awi ce am zasim thai uhy.
7 Jesus therefore said to them again, “Most certainly, I tell you, I am the sheep’s door.
Cedawngawh Jesu ing cekkhqi venawh, “Awitak kanik kqawn peek khqi, kai taw tuu chawmkeng na awm nyng.
8 All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep didn’t listen to them.
Kai hlanawh ak lawkhqi boeih taw quk-ai ingkaw damiah na awm uhy, cekkhqi ak awi ce tuukhqi ing am ngai pe uhy.
9 I am the door. If anyone enters in by me, he will be saved, and will go in and go out and will find pasture.
Kai taw chawmkeng na awm nyng; a u awm kai awh ak lut taw thaawngnaak hu kaw. Lut nawh cawn kaw, qam saihim awm hu kaw.
10 The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.
Quk-ai ingtaw quuk aham, him aham ingkaw hqe aham doeng nani a law hy; kai taw a mingmih ing hqingnaak ami taaknaak aham, khawzah na ami taaknaak aham law nyng.
11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
Kai taw tuukhaileek na awm nyng. Tuukhaileek ing a tuukhqi aham a hqingnaak ce pehy.
12 He who is a hired hand, and not a shepherd, who doesn’t own the sheep, sees the wolf coming, leaves the sheep, and flees. The wolf snatches the sheep and scatters them.
Thlangvat taw tuu ak takung amni. Cedawngawh ngentang a law awh, tuukhqi ce hlah hyt nawh cen taak khqi hy. Ngentang ing tuukhqi ce cui nawh a thek a zak na tahy.
13 The hired hand flees because he is a hired hand and doesn’t care for the sheep.
Thlangvat taw thlangvat na a awm dawngawh tuukhqi ce centa hy, tuukhqi ce ak leek na am khai hy.
14 I am the good shepherd. I know my own, and I’m known by my own;
Kai taw tuukhai leek na awm nyng; ka tuukhqi ce sim nyng saw ka tuukhqi ingawm kai ce ni sim uhy –
15 even as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. I lay down my life for the sheep.
Pa ing kai ni sim nawh kai ingawm Pa ce ka sim lawt amyihna, kai ing ka tuukhqi aham ka hqingnaak ce pe nyng.
16 I have other sheep which are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will hear my voice. They will become one flock with one shepherd.
Vawhkaw tuu ak khuiawh amak pa tuu ak chang awm ta hyn nyng. Cekkhqi awm haw law haih kawng. Cekkhqi ingawm kak awi ce ngai kawm usaw, tuu qui oet, tuukhaikung pynoet doeng awm kaw.
17 Therefore the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
Ka hqingnaak ka peek ak camawh ka Pa ing kai ni lungna hy, lawh tlaih hamna ka hqingnaak ka pek hly ak camawh.
18 No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down by myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. I received this commandment from my Father.”
U ingawm am ni qawt thai kaw, kamah a ngaih awh ni ka hqingnaak ce ka peek. Peek thainaak ce ta nyng saw lawh thainaak awm ta bai nyng. Vawhkaw awipeek ve Ka pa venawh kawng ni ka huh hy,” tinak khqi hy.
19 Therefore a division arose again among the Jews because of these words.
Ve ak awi awh ve Judahkhqi ce pek qu tlaih bai uhy.
20 Many of them said, “He has a demon and is insane! Why do you listen to him?”
Thlang khawzah ing, “qaai ta nawh qaw hawh saw na huh. Ikaw ham ak awi naming ngai peek?” ti uhy.
21 Others said, “These are not the sayings of one possessed by a demon. It isn’t possible for a demon to open the eyes of the blind, is it?”
Cehlai thlakchangkhqi bai ingtaw, “Ve ak awikhqi ve qaai ak ta ak awi amni. Qaai ing thlang a mik dai hly sak nawh nu?” ti uhy.
22 It was the Feast of the Dedication at Jerusalem.
Jerusalem khaw awh Pumpeek Poei khawnghi ce pha nawh cetaw chikca tym na awm hy.
23 It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in Solomon’s porch.
Jesu ce bawkim awh, Solomon a im hlip awh thoek ang qoe hy.
24 The Jews therefore came around him and said to him, “How long will you hold us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.”
Cawh Judahkhqi ing a venna cun unawh, “Kaimih ve iqyt dy nu ngaihang tumna na ni taak khqi kaw? Khrih na na awm awhtaw ak leek na nik kqawn pek khqi,” tina uhy.
25 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you don’t believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name, these testify about me.
Jesu ing, “Nik kqawn pek khqi nyng, cehlai ap cangna uhyk ti. Ka Pa ming ing kawpoek them ka saikhqi ing ka kawnglam ni sim sak khqi hawh hy.
26 But you don’t believe, because you are not of my sheep, as I told you.
Cehlai ka tuu na am awm unawh, ap cangna uhyk ti.
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
Ka tuukhqi ingtaw kak awi ce ngai uhy; cekkhqi ce sim nyng saw, ka hu awh bat uhy.
29 My Father who has given them to me is greater than all. No one is able to snatch them out of my Father’s hand.
Cekkhqi ce ka kut awh anik pekung ka Pa taw, ik-oeih boeih boeih anglakawh bau ngai hy; ka Pa a kut khuiawh kawng cekkhqi ce u ingawm am ni qawt kaw.
30 I and the Father are one.”
Kai ingkaw ka Pa taw pynoet ni,” tinak khqi hy.
31 Therefore the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
Cawh Judahkhqi ing amik khawngnaak ham lung ce cung tlaih uhy.
32 Jesus answered them, “I have shown you many good works from my Father. For which of those works do you stone me?”
Cehlai Jesu ing cekkhqi venawh, “Pa a venawh kawng kawpoek kyi ik-oeih khawzah dang sak hawh nyng. Cek khui awhkaw ikawmyih khawboe ing nu nik khawng ham naming cai?” tinak khqi hy.
33 The Jews answered him, “We don’t stone you for a good work, but for blasphemy, because you, being a man, make yourself God.”
Cawhkaw kawpoek kyi them na sai ak camawh nik khawng usih am ti unyng, cehlai Khawsa na thekhanaak camawh ni, thlanghqingna na awm loei awh Khawsa-na nang saa qu camawh,” tina uhy.
34 Jesus answered them, “Isn’t it written in your law, ‘I said, you are gods’?
Jesu ing, “Na mimah a anaa awi ak khuiawh, ‘Nangmih ve khawsakhqi na awm uhyk ti,’ ti nawh am qee qu nawh aw?
35 If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture can’t be broken),
Cekkhqi ce ‘Khawsakhqi’ tinawh ak khy awhtaw, a u a venawh aw Khawsa awi ce a law, Cakciim awi ce hqe aham ama awm dawngawh,
36 do you say of him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, ‘You blaspheme,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’?
Pa ing amah aham qoe qoe na hoep nawh khawmdek awh a tyih law ce ikawmyihna aw namik poek? Cawhtaw Ikawtih kai ing, ‘Kai Khawsa Capa ni,’ ka ti awh Khawsa ak kqawnseet ni nami ti?
37 If I don’t do the works of my Father, don’t believe me.
Ka Pa a bi ce am ka bi awhtaw koeh nik cangna uh.
38 But if I do them, though you don’t believe me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.”
Cehlai Ka Pa a bi ce ka bi awhtaw, nangmih ing amnik cangna u tik seiawm Pa ak khuiawh kai awm nyng saw, kai ak khuiawh Pa awm hy, tice naming zaksim thainaak aham, kawpoek kyi ik-oeihkhqi vetaw cangna lah uh,” tinak khqi hy.
39 They sought again to seize him, and he went out of their hand.
Cawh amah ce tu aham cai uhy, cehlai cekkhqi a kut khui awhkawng loet hy.
40 He went away again beyond the Jordan into the place where John was baptizing at first, and he stayed there.
Cekcoengawh Johan ing maa na baptisma a peeknaak Jordan tui caqai na Jesu taw cet tliah hy. Ce a hun awh ce awm nawh
41 Many came to him. They said, “John indeed did no sign, but everything that John said about this man is true.”
a venawh thlang khawzah cun law uhy. Cekkhqi ing, “Johan ing kawpoek kyi them am sai man hlai hy, Johan ing anih akawng anak kqawnkhqi boeih ve thym hy,” ti uhy.
42 Many believed in him there.
Ce a hun awh thlang khawzah ing Jesu ce cangna uhy.
