¹And he spake a parable unto them to the end that they ought always to pray, and not to faint;

¹Huan, lungke louin a thum gige ding uh ahi chih theihna dingin akiang uah gentehna a gen a:

²saying, There was in a city a judge, who feared not God, and regarded not man:

²Koilai khua hiamah thukhenmi khat a oma, huai min Pathian a lau keia, mihing leng a khawksa kei;

³and there was a widow in that city; and she came oft unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.

³huan, huai khuaah meithai khat a oma; aman, Ka lang tungah phu honlaksak in, chiin, a kiangah a hoh zihzeh a.

⁴And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

⁴Huan, amah tuh sawt khop a ut keia; himahleh, a nungin a lungsimin, Pathian lau louin mihing khawksa kei mah leng;

⁵yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest she wear me out by her continual coming.

⁵hiai meithaiin honhihbuai jiakin a phu ka lak sak mai ding, huchilouin jaw, a hong zihzeh leh a honhih gim ek kha ding, a chi a.

⁶And the Lord said, Hear what the unrighteous judge saith.

⁶Huan, Toupa mahin, Thukhenmi diktatlou thugen ja un.

⁷And shall not God avenge his elect, that cry to him day and night, and [yet] he is longsuffering over them?

⁷A tunguah dohzou tadih mahleh leng a mitel, a sun a jana amah samte phu tuh Pathianin a lak sak kei dia hia?

⁸I say unto you, that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

⁸Ka honhilh ahi, a phu uh a lak sak pah ding. Himahleh Mihing Tapa a hongpai hun chiangin leitungah tuabang ginna a honmu nadiam? a chi a.

⁹And he spake also this parable unto certain who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and set all others at nought:

⁹Huan, mi diktat hih kigingta a, mi dang tengteng musit kuate hiam kiangah hiai gentehna thu leng a gen a:

¹⁰Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.

¹⁰Mi nih Pathian biakin ah thum dingin a hoh tou ua; khat tuh Pharisai ahi a, khat tuh siahkhonmi ahi.

¹¹The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.

¹¹Pharisai tuh a dinga, amah kiain hichibangin a thum a: Pathian, mi dang, a negute, dikloute, angkawmte bang ka hih louh jiak leh, hiai siahkhonmi bang leng ka hih louh jiakin na tungah ka kipak hi.

¹²I fast twice in the week; I give tithes of all that I get.

¹²Nipikal khat tengin nihvei an ka ngawl jel; ka neih teng sawm ah khat ka pe jela, a chi a.

¹³But the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote his breast, saying, God, be thou merciful to me a sinner.

¹³Siahkhonmin bel gamla taka dingin, van lam leng a dak ngam keia, Pathian, kei mi khial, ka tungah zahngai in, chiin, a awm a kitum a.

¹⁴I say unto you, This man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be humbled; but he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

¹⁴Ka honhilh ahi, a masa sangin huai mipen tuh siam tangin a in ah a pai kheta. Kingaithupi peuh a niam ding ua, kingainiam tuh pahtawiin a om ding, a chi a.

¹⁵And they were bringing unto him also their babes, that he should touch them: but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.

¹⁵Huan, a khoih dingin a kiangah a naungekte uh a honpi ua; nungjuiten bel huai a muh tak un a natai ua.

¹⁶But Jesus called them unto him, saying, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for to such belongeth the kingdom of God.

¹⁶Himahleh, Jesun amau a sama, Naupang neute ka kiangah honpai sak unla, kham kei un, Pathian gam huchibang mite a ahi ngala.

¹⁷Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall in no wise enter therein.

¹⁷Chihtaktakin ka honhilh ahi, Kuapeuh Pathian gam naupang neuin a kipahpih banga kipahpih lou tuh a sungah alut keihial ding, a chi a.

¹⁸And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

¹⁸Huan, vaihawmmi kuahiamin, a kiangah, Sinsakpa hoih, khantawn hinna tanna dingin bang ka hih dia? chiin, a donga.

¹⁹And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, [even] God.

¹⁹Huan, Jesun a kiangah, Bangdia hoih honchi? mi khat kia ngallou kuamah hoih a om kei, huai tuh Pathian ahi.

²⁰Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honor thy father and mother.

²⁰Thupiakte na thei vo oi, Angkawm ken, Tualthat ken, Gu ken, Hek ken, Na nu leh pa pahtawi in, chihte, a chi a.

²¹And he said, All these things have I observed from my youth up.

²¹Huan, aman, Huai thu tengteng ka naupan chik a kipan ka jui jel, achia.

²²And when Jesus heard it, he said unto him, One thing thou lackest yet: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

²²Huan, Jesun huai a jakin a kiangah, Tuin leng thil khat na sam hi; na neih tengteng juak inla, tagahte kiangah hawm in, huchiin vanah gou na nei ding; huan, hongpai inla, honjui in, a chi a.

²³But when he heard these things, he became exceeding sorrowful; for he was very rich.

²³Aman bel, huai thute a jakin a lungkham mahmah a, a hauh mahmah jiakin.

²⁴And Jesus seeing him said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

²⁴Huchiin, Jesun amah tuh a ena, Sum haute Pathian gama lut haksa na e:

²⁵For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

²⁵Mi sumhau Pathian gama lut sangin sangawngsau phim bila lut suak a nuam jaw ahi, a chi a.

²⁶And they that heard it said, Then who can be saved?

²⁶Huan, huai thu zaten, Huchi a hihin kua hotdamin a om thei dia? a chi ua.

²⁷But he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.

²⁷Aman tuh, Mihing hih vual louh Pathian hih theih ahi, a chi a.

²⁸And Peter said, Lo, we have left our own, and followed thee.

²⁸Huan, Peterin, ngai in, kou ka in uh leh lou pai sanin kon jui ua, a chi a.

²⁹And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or wife, or brethren, or parents, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake,

²⁹Huan, aman, a kiang uah, Chih taktakin ka honhilh ahi, Kuapeuh Pathian gam jiaka, in hiam, ji hiam, unaute hiam, nu le pa hiam, tate hiam paisan photphot,

³⁰who shall not receive manifold more in this time, and in the world to come eternal life.

³⁰tu dam sung mahmahin a sanga tam jaw mu lou ding kuamah a om kei, hun hongtung lai dinga khantawna hinna toh, a chi a.

³¹And he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets shall be accomplished unto the Son of man.

³¹Huan, sawm leh nihte a kiangah api tuama, a kiang uah, Ngai un, Jerusalem khua a hoh tou ding i hi ua; jawlneite thu gelh tengteng Mihing Tapa tungah a tung ding.

³²For he shall be delivered up unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and shamefully treated, and spit upon:

³²Jentelte kiangah piakin a om ding a, nuihzabawlna din a zang ding uh, zumhuai takin a bawl ding ua, chil a siat ding uh;

³³and they shall scourge and kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.

³³Huan, a vo ding ua, a hihlum ding uh; huan, ni thum niin a thou nawn ding, a chi a.

³⁴And they understood none of these things; and this saying was hid from them, and they perceived not the things that were said.

³⁴Huan, huai thute himhim a theisiam kei ua, a thu gen tuh a lak uah selin a oma, bang gen ahia chih leng a theikei uh.

³⁵And it came to pass, as he drew nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging:

³⁵Huan, hichi ahi a, Jeriko khua a tun kuanin, mittaw kuahiam lam geiah khut dohin a na tu a;

³⁶and hearing a multitude going by, he inquired what this meant.

³⁶huai min tuh mipi pai ging a ja a, bangchi thu a hitaa chih a donga.

³⁷And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.

³⁷Huan amau, Nazaret Jesu a pai ahi chih a hilh ua.

³⁸And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.

³⁸Huchiin, aman, Jesu, David Tapa, ka tungah zahngai in, chiin, a kikou a.

³⁹And they that went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried out the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.

³⁹Huan, a masaten dai dingin a tai ua, himahleh, David Tapa, honhehpih in, chiin, a kinak kou semsem a.

⁴⁰And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him,

⁴⁰Huchiin, Jesu a dinga, a kianga honpi dingin thu a pia a;

⁴¹What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.

⁴¹huan, a kiang a hongtun in, Na tungah bangchia ka hih ahia na deih? a chi a, a na donga. Huan, aman, Toupa, muh theih ka ut, a chi a.

⁴²And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight; thy faith hath made thee whole.

⁴²Huan, Jesun a kiangah, Mu thei ta in, na ginna na dampih ahi, a chi a.Huan, thakhatin a mu thei pahtaa, Pathian phat kawm jelin amah a juita a; huan, mi tengtengin, huai a muh un, Pathian a phat uh.

⁴³And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.

⁴³Huan, thakhatin a mu thei pahtaa, Pathian phat kawm jelin amah a juita a; huan, mi tengtengin, huai a muh un, Pathian a phat uh.
