¹And it came to pass soon afterwards, that he went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good tidings of the kingdom of God, and with him the twelve,

¹Anungin Jesu a paipaha, thu hilh leh Pathian gam Tanchin Hoih tun kawmin kho lian leh kho neute a tawn vialviala; a kiangah sawm leh nihte a om ua,

²and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary that was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,

²Numei kuate hiam dawi jawl dam nawnte leh china dam nawnte toh. Huai numeite tuh Mari a sunga pat dawi sagih pawtna Magdalini a chih uh,

³and Joanna the wife of Chuzas Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered unto them of their substance.

³Herod sumkempa Chuza ji Jonna, Sussana leh mi dang tampite toh ahi uh; huaiten amau neihsain amah a khotuah jel uh.

⁴And when a great multitude came together, and they of every city resorted unto him, he spake by a parable:

⁴Huan, mipi tampitak a hongkikhawm ua, kho chiha mi a kianga a hong un, gentehnain thu a gena:

⁵The sower went forth to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden under foot, and the birds of the heaven devoured it.

⁵Buhchithehpa a buh chi theh din a kuana; huan, a theh lain a khen lampi sikah a kia a, min a sik ua, tungleng vasaten a ne zouta uh.

⁶And other fell on the rock; and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.

⁶Huan, a khen suang tungah a kia a; huan a pout akin a kawt louh jiakin a vuai pah a.

⁷And other fell amidst the thorns; and the thorns grew with it, and choked it.

⁷Huan, a khen loulingnei lakah a kia a, louin a pou tonpiha, a dep mangta.

⁸And other fell into the good ground, and grew, and brought forth fruit a hundredfold. As he said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

⁸Huan, a khen lei hoih ah a kia a, a hongpou a, a leh jain a gahta a, a chi a. Huan, huai thu a gen lain a kikou a, Kuapeuh jakna dinga bilneiin ja uheh, a chi hi.

⁹And his disciples asked him what this parable might be.

⁹Huan, a nungjuiten a kiang ah, Hiai gentehna thu bang chihna ahia? chiin, a dong ua.

¹⁰And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to the rest in parables; that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.

¹⁰Huan, Pathian gam thugukte nou theih dia piak ahia, mi dang kiangah bel gentehna kiaa gen ahi; mu napia a muh theihlouhna ding uleh za napi-a a theihsiam louhna ding un.

¹¹Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

¹¹Huai gentehna thu hiai ahi: Buh chi tuh Pathian thu ahi.

¹²And those by the way side are they that have heard; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.

¹²Huan, lampi sika te tuh thu zasate ahi uh; huan, diabol a hongpaia, a gin louh ua, hotdam a hih theih louhna ding un a lungtang ua kipan thu tuh a lak mangsak jel.

¹³And those on the rock [are] they who, when they have heard, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

¹³Huan, suang tunga te tuh a jak tak ua thu kipak taka pom pahte ahi ua; himahleh zung himhim a neikei ua, sawtlou chik kia a ging ua, khem hunin a tawp san nak uh.

¹⁴And that which fell among the thorns, these are they that have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of [this] life, and bring no fruit to perfection.

¹⁴Huan, loulingnei laka kiate tuh thu zate ahi ua; himahleh a khosak jelna uah damsung khosak ngaihtuahnate, hauhsaknate, nuamsaknaten a depa, a gah piching kei nak uh.

¹⁵And that in the good ground, these are such as in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it fast, and bring forth fruit with patience.

¹⁵Lei hoih ate bel thu jaa lungtang kizen leh hoih a kem kinken a, kuhkaltaka gah suahte ahi uh.

¹⁶And no man, when he hath lighted a lamp, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but putteth it on a stand, that they that enter in may see the light.

¹⁶Kuamahin khawnvak dein belin a khuh kei uh, lupna nuaiah leng a koih kei uh; a lut peuhmahin a vak a muh theihna dingun a koihna ah a koih jaw uh.

¹⁷For nothing is hid, that shall not be made manifest; nor [anything] secret, that shall not be known and come to light.

¹⁷Thang lou ding a im bangmah a om ngal kei a, theih louh ding leh lang lou dinga selguk bangmah a om sam kei.

¹⁸Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that which he thinketh he hath.

¹⁸Huchiin, bangchibangin ahia na jak uh pilvang un; kuapeuh a nei tuh piak behlap ahi ding a, kuapeuh a neilou tuh, nei a kichih sun leng lak sak ahi ding, a chi hi.

¹⁹And there came to him his mother and brethren, and they could not come at him for the crowd.

¹⁹Huan, a nu leh a unauten Jesu lam a honnaih ua, himahleh mipi jiakin a kiang a hongtung theikei ua.

²⁰And it was told him, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee.

²⁰Huan, Na nu leh na unaute nangmah muh tumin inpua ah ding nilouh ve uh, chiin, a hilh ua.

²¹But he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these that hear the word of God, and do it.

²¹Huan, aman a kiang uah, Hiai Pathian thu jaa gingtate ka nu leh ka unaute ahi uh, a chi a, a dawnga.

²²Now it came to pass on one of those days, that he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples; and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the lake: and they launched forth.

²²Huan, hichi ahi a, huailaiin ni khat tuh longah a tuanga, a nungjuite toh; huan, a kiang uah, Dil gal khat lamah I kai ding, a chi a. Huchiin long a phel ua, a paita ua.

²³But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filling [with water], and were in jeopardy.

²³Huan, a pai lai un Jesu a ihmutaa; huan, dilah huihpi a hongnung suka, a long uh tuiin a dim dekdeka, lauhuai piin a omta uh.

²⁴And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. And he awoke, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.

²⁴Huan, a kiangah a vahoh ua, a phawng ua, Heutupa, Heutupa, mangthang ding ka kei umaw, a chi ua. Huan amah a khanglou-a huih leh tuikihot a taita a; huan, a tawp ua, a daita mai uhi.

²⁵And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And being afraid they marvelled, saying one to another, Who then is this, that he commandeth even the winds and the water, and they obey him?

²⁵Huan, a kiang uah, Na ginna uh kaw om ahia? a chi a. Huan, a lau ua, lamdang a sa mahmah ua, Hiai mi kua ahia leh? huih leh tui nangawn thu a piaka, a thu a man uh? a kichi uhi.

²⁶And they arrived at the country of the Gerasenes, which is over against Galilee.

²⁶Huan, Gaili gam jawn Gerasinte gam a tung ua.

²⁷And when he was come forth upon the land, there met him a certain man out of the city, who had demons; and for a long time he had worn no clothes, and abode not in [any] house, but in the tombs.

²⁷Huan, gama a pai khiakin, khuaa mi dawi mat kuahiamin a nadawna; huai mi tuh sawtpi puan himhim silh louin a oma, in himhim ah leng a om keia, han khawng ngen ah a om jaw a.

²⁸And when he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the Most High God? I beseech thee, torment me not.

²⁸Huan, Jesu a muh takin a kikou a, a maah a khupboha, aw ngaih piin, Jesu, Pathian Tungnungpen Tapa, kei leh nang bang i kizolhna a om a? honhihgim mahmah lou dingin ka honngen ahi, a chi a.

²⁹For he was commanding the unclean spirit to come out from the man. For oftentimes it had seized him: and he was kept under guard, and bound with chains and fetters; and breaking the bands asunder, he was driven of the demon into the deserts.

²⁹Jesun dawi nin tuh huai mi sunga kipana pawt dingin thu a nape khin ngala. Huai mi tuh dawiin a man gige ahi; min khainiang leh kol a bun sak ua, a ching ngitnget ua; himahleh a gakna uh a hihtata, dawiin gamkeu khawngah a delhkhe jel hi.

³⁰And Jesus asked him, What is thy name? And he said, Legion; for many demons were entered into him.

³⁰Huan, Jesun, Na min bang ahia? chiin, a donga. Huan, aman, Nuai, a chi a, a sunga dawi tampi a lut jiakin.

³¹And they entreated him that he would not command them to depart into the abyss.

³¹Huan, kokhuk toneiloua pai thu a kiang ua pe lou dingin Jesu kiangah a ngen uh.

³²Now there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they entreated him that he would give them leave to enter into them. And he gave them leave.

³²Huan, huailaiah tangah vok hon tampi a ta ua; huan, vok sunga lut theihna thu a kiangah a ngen ua. Huan, aman thu a pia a.

³³And the demons came out from the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd rushed down the steep into the lake, and were drowned.

³³Huan, Dawite tuh huai mi sung akipan a pawt ua, vok sungah a lut ua; huan, vok hon tuh tuigei ken ah a tai suk duamduam ua, dil ah a tai lut ua, tuihakin a sita uh.

³⁴And when they that fed them saw what had come to pass, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country.

³⁴Huan, a vulten huai thil omdan a mu ua, a tai ua, khuaah leh gamahte khawng a gen ua.

³⁵And they went out to see what had come to pass; and they came to Jesus, and found the man, from whom the demons were gone out, sitting, clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus: and they were afraid.

³⁵Huan, Bang a hita a? chia, en dingin a pawt chiat ua; huan, Jesu kiang a hongtun un, dawi pawtsan nung puan silha, lungsim ngeingei puin, Jesu khe bula tu a hongmu ua, huchiin a lauta ua.

³⁶And they that saw it told them how he that was possessed with demons was made whole.

³⁶Huan, a theiten dawi mat a hihdamdan thu a maute a na hilh ua.

³⁷And all the people of the country of the Gerasenes round about asked him to depart from them, for they were holden with great fear: and he entered into a boat, and returned.

³⁷Huan a kim Gerasinte gama mi tengtengin, a lau mahmah jiak un, amah tuh a kiang ua kipan pai mang dingin a ngen ua; huan, longah a tuanga, a kik nawnta.

³⁸But the man from whom the demons were gone out prayed him that he might be with him: but he sent him away, saying,

³⁸Huan, dawi pawtsan miin Jesu kianga om den a ngena.

³⁹Return to thy house, and declare how great things God hath done for thee. And he went his way, publishing throughout the whole city how great things Jesus had done for him.

³⁹Himahleh, Jesun, Na in ah pai inla, Pathianin nang dia thil a honhihsak a thupidan vahilh in, chiin a sawl khia hi. Huchiin, a paia, khopi sung tengteng ah Jesun amah adia thil a hihsak thupidan a tangkou pihta hi.

⁴⁰And as Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed him; for they were all waiting for him.

⁴⁰Huan, Jesu a hongkik nawnin Mipiin amah a kipahpih ua; amah a nangak nilouh ngal ua.

⁴¹And behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and he fell down at Jesus' feet, and besought him to come into his house;

⁴¹Huan, ngai dih, mi khat a min Jaira kikhopna in vaihawmpa a hongpaia, Jesu khebul ah a khupboha, a ina hoh dingin a ngen ngutnguta.

⁴²for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went the multitudes thronged him.

⁴²Tanu tangkhat kum sawm leh kum nih hiam phial ding a neia, huai tuh laitatin a lum ngala. Huan Jesu a pai laiin mipi honin a boh lutlut ua.

⁴³And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, who had spent all her living upon physicians, and could not be healed of any,

⁴³Huan, numei khat kum sawm leh kum nih si pawt a china a sum neih tengteng daktorte lakah zang khintaa, kuamahin a hihdam theih tuan;

⁴⁴came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately the issue of her blood stanched.

⁴⁴louh uh a nungah a hongpaia, a puan mong a khoiha; thakhatin a si pawt tuh a hongkam guiha.

⁴⁵And Jesus said, Who is it that touched me? And when all denied, Peter said, and they that were with him, Master, the multitudes press thee and crush [thee].

⁴⁵Huan, Jesun, Honkhoih kua ahia? a chi a. Huan, Kei jaw ka hi kei, a nachi chiat ua. Peter leh a lawmten, Heutupa, mipi honin a honboh lutlut ua, honvel vengvung ve ua oi, a chi ua.

⁴⁶But Jesus said, Some one did touch me; for I perceived that power had gone forth from me.

⁴⁶Himahleh, Jesun, Kua hiam in jaw honkhoih ve aw, thilhihtheihna ka sung akipan a pawt chih ka theih jiakin, a chi a.

⁴⁷And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him declared in the presence of all the people for what cause she touched him, and how she was healed immediately.

⁴⁷Huan, numeiin a kisel theih louh a theihin, ling kawmin a hongpaia, a maah khupbohin a khoih san leh thakhata a damtak dan mi tengteng maah a genkhe ta.

⁴⁸And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.

⁴⁸Huan, aman, a kiangah, Tanu, na ginna dampih hi chia, khamuangtakin pai in, a chi a.

⁴⁹While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's [house], saying, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher.

⁴⁹A pau laitakin kikhopna in vaihawmpa in akipan mi khat a hongpaia, Na tanu a sita, Heutupa hihgim nuamdahin, a chi a.

⁵⁰But Jesus hearing it, answered him, Fear not: only believe, and she shall be made whole.

⁵⁰Jesun huai thu a jakin, Lau ken, gingta mai in, huchiin a dam nawn ding, a chi a, a dawnga.

⁵¹And when he came to the house, he suffered not any man to enter in with him, save Peter, and John, and James, and the father of the maiden and her mother.

⁵¹Huan, in a vatunin, Peter, Johan, Jakob leh naupang nu leh pate kia chih louhngal kuamah lut a phal keia.

⁵²And all were weeping, and bewailing her: but he said, Weep not; for she is not dead, but sleepeth.

⁵²Huan, a vek un a nakap kheukhou ua, a kah vengvung ua, himahleh, aman, kap kei un, a si kei, a ihmu ahi jaw, a chi a.

⁵³And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.

⁵³Huan, sikhina a theih jiak un a nuihsan maimah ua.

⁵⁴But he, taking her by the hand, called, saying, Maiden, arise.

⁵⁴Jesun bel a khut a lena, Nungak, thou ve, a chi a, a sam a.

⁵⁵And her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately: and he commanded that [something] be given her to eat.

⁵⁵Huan, a kha tuh a hongkik nawna, a thou paha.Huan, Banghiam nek ding piak ding thu a piaa. Huan, a nu leh a pan lamdang a sa mahmah ua. Himahleh, aman a thilhih tuh kuamah hilh lou dingin a chi bikbek hi.

⁵⁶And her parents were amazed: but he charged them to tell no man what had been done.

⁵⁶Huan, Banghiam nek ding piak ding thu a piaa. Huan, a nu leh a pan lamdang a sa mahmah ua. Himahleh, aman a thilhih tuh kuamah hilh lou dingin a chi bikbek hi.
