¹And he called the twelve together, and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.

¹Huan, Jesun sawm leh nihte a sam khawma, dawi tengteng tunga thilhihtheihna leh thuneihna leh natnate hihdam theihna a pia a.

²And he sent them forth to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

²Huchiin, Pathian gam thugen ding leh dam loute hihdam dingin a sawlkhetaa.

³And he said unto them, Take nothing for your journey, neither staff, nor wallet, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats.

³Huan, a kiang uah, Zinna adingin chiang khun hiam, kawljal hiam, tanghou hiam, dangka hiam, bangmah keng kei un; puannak nih leng neikei un.

⁴And into whatsoever house ye enter, there abide, and thence depart.

⁴Huan, na tunna in peuh uah tung kinken jel un, huai in akipanin paikhia un.

⁵And as many as receive you not, when ye depart from that city, shake off the dust from your feet for a testimony against them.

⁵Huan, a honkipahpih lou peuhmah tuh huai khua akipan na paikhiak chiang un amau mohpaihna dingin na khepek ua leivui tatkhia unla, a chi a.

⁶And they departed, and went throughout the villages, preaching the gospel, and healing everywhere.

⁶Huchiin, a kuanta ua, khua a tawn vialvial ua. Gam chihah Tanchiin Hoih a hilh ua, mi a hihdam jel uh.

⁷Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done: and he was much perplexed, because that it was said by some, that John was risen from the dead;

⁷Huan, kumpipa Herodin a thilhih tengteng uh a nazataa; khenkhatin Johan hing nawnta ei ve a chi ua, khenkhatin,

⁸and by some, that Elijah had appeared; and by others, that one of the old prophets was risen again.

⁸Elija hongkilakta ei ve a chi ua, khenkhatin, Nidang laia jawlnei kuahiam thou nawnta ei ve, a chih jiak un, a lungjingtaa.

⁹And Herod said, John I beheaded: but who is this, about whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.

⁹Huan, Herodin, Johan a lu ka tanta a; himahleh hichi lawmlawma a thu ka jakjak kua ahia? a chi a. Huan, amah tuh muh a tumta hi.

¹⁰And the apostles, when they were returned, declared unto him what things they had done. And he took them, and withdrew apart to a city called Bethsaida.

¹⁰Huan, sawltakte a hongkik nawn un, a kiangah a thilhihte uh a hilh ua. Huan, aman amau piin khopi Bethsaida kichi ah a pai tuamta a.

¹¹But the multitudes perceiving it followed him: and he welcomed them, and spake to them of the kingdom of God, and them that had need of healing he cured.

¹¹Himahleh mipin a thei ua, a jui jel uh; huan, aman amau a nakipahpiha, Pathian gam thu a hilha, hihdam kiphamoh peuhmah a hihdama.

¹²And the day began to wear away; and the twelve came, and said unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages and country round about, and lodge, and get provisions: for we are here in a desert place.

¹²Huan, nitaklam a honghi dektaa; huan, sawm leh nihte a hongpai ua, a kiangah, khuate leh a kim gam khawnga giahna leh annektuidawn zong dingin mipite paisak tanla; tua, gamkeu muna om hi ngal hang a, a chi ua.

¹³But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more than five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy food for all this people.

¹³Aman bel a kiang uah, Nou nek ding pia un, a chi a. Huan, amau, Mi hiai zahzah adia nek ding I valei sak keileh, tanghou phel nga leh nga nih kia loungal bangmah I neikei uh, a chi ua.

¹⁴For they were about five thousand men. And he said unto his disciples, Make them sit down in companies, about fifty each.

¹⁴Piching ngen leng sang nga hiam phial ahi ngal ua. Huan, a nungjuite kiangah, A pawlpawlin tu sak un, sawm nga khawng jelin, a chi a.

¹⁵And they did so, and made them all sit down.

¹⁵Huchiin a hih ua, a tu sak vekta ua.

¹⁶And he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and brake; and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude.

¹⁶Huan, tanghou phel nga leh ngasa nih tuh a laa, van lam enin vual a jawla a balkhama, mipi maa lui dingin a nungjuite kiang ah a piaa.

¹⁷And they ate, and were all filled: and there was taken up that which remained over to them of broken pieces, twelve baskets.

¹⁷Huan, a ne ua, a vah vekta ua, huan, a khamval nengte uh bawm sawm leh nih a luak dim uh.

¹⁸And it came to pass, as he was praying apart, the disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying, Who do the multitudes say that I am?

¹⁸Huan, hi chi ahi a, Jesu amah kiaa a thum lain a nungjuite a kiangah a om ua; a kiang uah, Mipiten kua ka hi a honchi ua? chiin a donga.

¹⁹And they answering said, John the Baptist; but others [say], Elijah; and others, that one of the old prophets is risen again.

¹⁹Huan, amau, Baptispa Johan ahi, honchi uh; himahleh khenkhatin, Nidang laia jawlnei kuahiam a thou nawnta ahi, a honchi uh, chiin, a dawng ua.

²⁰And he said unto them, But who say ye that I am? And Peter answering said, The Christ of God.

²⁰Huan, aman a kiang uah, Ahihleh, nou kua ka hi non chi ua? a chi a. Peterin, Pathian kris mah, chiin, a dawnga.

²¹But he charged them, and commanded [them] to tell this to no man;

²¹Huan, huai thu kuamah hilh louh ding chi bikbekin, thu a piaa:

²²saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.

²²Mihing Tapain thil tampi a thuak dia, upate, siampu liante, laigelhmite deih louhin a om dia, thahin a om dia, ni thum niin kaihthohin a om ding ahi, a chi a.

²³And he said unto all, If any man would come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

²³Huan, amahmahin, mi tengteng kiangah, kuapeuhin honzuih a ut leh, amah kingaihsak louin, niteng a kros puin honjui hen.

²⁴For whosoever would save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.

²⁴Kuapeuh a hin humbit utin a tan ding; kuapeuh keimah jiaka a hin tanin, huai mi mahin a humbit ding.

²⁵For what is a man profited, if he gain the whole world, and lose or forfeit his own self?

²⁵Min khovel a pumin nei henla, amah kimangsak hiam, ahihkeileh kimanloh leh, amah adingin bang a phatuam dia?

²⁶For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in his own glory, and [the glory] of the Father, and of the holy angels.

²⁶Kuapeuh keimah leh ka thu zahpih mi jaw Mihing Tapain, amah thupina toh, a Pa thupina toh, a angel siangthoute thupina toh a hongpai chiangin a honzahpih ding.

²⁷But I tell you of a truth, There are some of them that stand here, who shall in no wise taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.

²⁷Diktakin ka honhilh ahi, Hiaia dingte akhen, Pathian gam a muh masiah uh sihna chiam lou hial ding a om uh, a chi a.

²⁸And it came to pass about eight days after these sayings, that he took with him Peter and John and James, and went up into the mountain to pray.

²⁸Huan, hichi ahi a, huai thugen nung ni giat hiam khawngin, Jesun Peter, Johan leh Jakob a pi a, thum dingin tangah a hohtou a.

²⁹And as he was praying, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment [became] white [and] dazzling.

²⁹Huan, a thum laiin a mel omdan a honglamdanga, a puansilhte mi leng theiin a hongngoutaa.

³⁰And behold, there talked with him two men, who were Moses and Elijah;

³⁰Huan, ngai in, mi nih amah toh a kihou ua, huai mite tuh Mosi leh Elija ahi uh.

³¹who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.

³¹Thupinaa kithuamin a kilak ua, Jerusalem khuaa sihna a hihkim ding thu a gen uh.

³²Now Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: but when they were fully awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.

³²Peter leh a lawmte bel a ihmut uh a suaka, himahleh a hak teitei ua a thupina leh a kianga mi nih ding a mu uh.

³³And it came to pass, as they were parting from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah: not knowing what he said.

³³Huan, huai miten Jesu a paisan dek lai un, Peterin, Jesu kiangah, Heutupa, ei din hiaia om hoih veh, aidakbuk thum i khoh dia, nang din khat, Mosi din khat, Elija din khat, a chi a-a thugen lengthei louin.

³⁴And while he said these things, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.

³⁴Huan huai thute a gen laiin mei a hongkaia, amau tuh a liahta; mei laka a lut laiun a lau ua.

³⁵And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my Son, my chosen: hear ye him.

³⁵Huan mei akipan aw a hongsuaka, Hiai ka Tapa, ka tel ahi, amah thu ngai un, a chi a.

³⁶And when the voice came, Jesus was found alone. And they held their peace, and told no man in those days any of the things which they had seen.

³⁶Huan aw a daih takin Jesu amah kiain a muta uh. Huan, a dai dide ua, huailai khawngin a thil muh uh kuamah bangmah a hilh kei uh.

³⁷And it came to pass, on the next day, when they were come down from the mountain, a great multitude met him.

³⁷Huan, hichi ahi a, a jingin tang akipana a paisuk nung un, mipi thupi takin amah a nadawn ua.

³⁸And behold, a man from the multitude cried, saying, Teacher, I beseech thee to look upon my son; for he is mine only child:

³⁸Huan, ngaiin, mipi lakah mi khat a kikoua, Sinsakpa, ka tapa en dingin ka honngen ahi, ka tapa neihsun ahi ngala.

³⁹and behold, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that he foameth, and it hardly departeth from him, bruising him sorely.

³⁹Ngai in, dawiin a mana, a kikou khe guih jela; huchiin, a chilphuan bang ke hialin a gimbawla, nakpitaka hihsidupin a pai san phet jela.

⁴⁰And I besought thy disciples to cast it out; and they could not.

⁴⁰Huan na nungjuite kiangah delhkhe dingin ka ngena, a hih theikei uh, a chi a.

⁴¹And Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and bear with you? bring hither thy son.

⁴¹Huan, Jesun, Khangthak ginna neilou leh lampialte aw, bangtan ahia ka honthuak theih ding? Na tapa tuh hiaiah honpi in, a chi a, a dawng a.

⁴²And as he was yet a coming, the demon dashed him down, and tare [him] grievously. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.

⁴²Huan, a honglaiin dawiin a hihpuk eka, nakpitakin a gimbawltaa, himahleh, Jesun dawi nin tuh a taia, naupang tuh a hihdama, a pa kiangah a paisak nawnta.

⁴³And they were all astonished at the majesty of God. But while all were marvelling at all the things which he did, he said unto his disciples,

⁴³Huan, mi tengtengin Pathian thupidan lamdang a sa mahmah uh. Huchiin mi tengtengin a thilhih tengteng lamdang a sak lai un, Jesun a nungjuite kiangah,

⁴⁴Let these words sink into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered up into the hands of men.

⁴⁴Hiai thute na bil uah lut heh. Mihing Tapa mihingte khuta mat saka om ding ahi ngala, a chi a

⁴⁵But they understood not this saying, and it was concealed from them, that they should not perceive it; and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.

⁴⁵Himahleh, a thugen tuh a theisiam kei uh, a theihtheih louhna ding un a kisel ahi, huai thugen tanchin tuh amah a dong ngam ngal kei ua.

⁴⁶And there arose a reasoning among them, which of them was the greatest.

⁴⁶Huan, a lak uah kua a thupipen dia? Chih thuin a nakisel ua.

⁴⁷But when Jesus saw the reasoning of their heart, he took a little child, and set him by his side,

⁴⁷Huchiin, Jesun a lungtang ua a ngaihtuah uh a theia, naupang neu khat a kaia, a sik ah a omsaka, a kiang uah,

⁴⁸and said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this little child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same is great.

⁴⁸Kuapeuh ka min jiaka hiai naupang neu kipahpih tuh keimah honkipahpih ahi ding uh; na vek ua laka neupen ahi, a thupipen, a chi a.

⁴⁹And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out demons in thy name; and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us.

⁴⁹Huan, Johanin, Heutupa, kuahiam na mina dawite delkhia ka mu ua, kon zuihna ua a pan sam louh jiakin ka khamta ve ua, a chi a, dawnga.

⁵⁰But Jesus said unto him, Forbid [him] not: for he that is not against you is for you.

⁵⁰Jesun bel a kiang ah, Kham nawn kei un, kuapeuh nou hondal loutuh nou lama pang ahi uh, a chi a.

⁵¹And it came to pass, when the days were well-nigh come that he should be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,

⁵¹Huan, hichi ahi a, amah pi touh a hun dingin, Jerusalem khuaa hoh a tum chiltela, a maah mi a matai saka;

⁵²and sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.

⁵²Huan, a pai ua, amah adia nakimansak dingin Samari mite kho khatah a lut ua.

⁵³And they did not receive him, because his face was [as though he were] going to Jerusalem.

⁵³Huan, a mai tuh Jerusalem kho lam naiha a lat jiakin amah a nakipahpih kei uh.

⁵⁴And when his disciples James and John saw [this], they said, Lord, wilt thou that we bid fire to come down from heaven, and consume them?

⁵⁴Huchiin a nungjui Jakob leh Johanin huai a theih takun, Toupa, amaute kangmang dingin van akipan mei sam khe leng hoih na sa hia? a chi ua.

⁵⁵But he turned, and rebuked them.

⁵⁵Amah tuh a kiheia, amau a taitaa.

⁵⁶And they went to another village.

⁵⁶Huan, kho dangah a paita uh.

⁵⁷And as they went on the way, a certain man said unto him, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.

⁵⁷Huan, lampia a pai lai un, kuahiamin a kiangah, Na paina peuhah kon jui ding, a chi a.

⁵⁸And Jesus said unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the heaven [have] nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.

⁵⁸Huan, Jesun a kiangah, Sehalten kua a nei ua, tungleng vasaten leng bu a nei uh, ahihhangin Mihing Tapain jaw a lu ngakna ding mun a neikei, a chi a.

⁵⁹And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.

⁵⁹Huan, Jesun mi dang kiangah, Honjui in, a chi a. Himahleh aman, Toupa, ka pa honvui sak phot in, a chi a.

⁶⁰But he said unto him, Leave the dead to bury their own dead; but go thou and publish abroad the kingdom of God.

⁶⁰Jesun tuh a kiangah, Misiin a misi uh vui uheh; nang Pathian gam thu vahilh jak jaw in, a chi a.

⁶¹And another also said, I will follow thee, Lord; but first suffer me to bid farewell to them that are at my house.

⁶¹Huan, mi dangin leng, Toupa, kon jui ding, a hihhangin ka ina mite kamphain honkha sak photin, a chi a.Huan, Jesun a kiangah, Kuapeuh leilehna lena, nunglam nga tuh, Pathian gam mi hitak ahi kei, a chi.

⁶²But Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

⁶²Huan, Jesun a kiangah, Kuapeuh leilehna lena, nunglam nga tuh, Pathian gam mi hitak ahi kei, a chi.
