¹Huan, mite jaka a thu gen tengteng a khitin Kapernaum khuaah a luta,

¹After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.

²Huan, sepaih zaheutu kuahiam a sikha deihtak a chi a na a, a si dekdeka.

²A certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.

³Huchiin, Jesu tanchin a jak takin a sikha honghihdam dinga ngen dingin a kiangah Juda upate a sawla.

³When he heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and save his servant.

⁴Huan, amau tuh Jesu kiang a vatung ua, limtakin a ngen ua,

⁴When they came to Jesus, they begged him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy for you to do this for him,

⁵Amah jaw hiai na hihsak tak ahi; ka nam uh a it a, ka kikhopna in uh leng amah honlamsak ahi, a chi ua.

⁵for he loves our nation, and he built our synagogue for us.”

⁶Huchiin, Jesu tuh amau toh a hongpai a. Huan, in a tun dekdekin sepaih zaheutun a kiangah, a lawmte a sawla, ka in sung na lutna tak ahi kei,

⁶Jesus went with them. When he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for you to come under my roof.

⁷Huaijiakin na kianga hong tak hiin leng ka kisimkei, thu leltak gen lechin, ka naupang a dam mai ding.

⁷Therefore I didn’t even think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant will be healed.

⁸Kei leng mi thua om ka hi a, ka nuaiah sepaihte a om ua; huai mipa, hiai mipa, Pai in, ka chih leh a paia, mi dang kiangah leng, hongpai in, ka chih leh, a hongpai a; ka sikha kiangah leng, Hiai hih in, ka chih leh a hih jel, a chi a.

⁸For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”

⁹Huan, Jesun huai thu a jakin amah tuh lamdang a sa mahmah a, a kihei a, mipi amah juite kiangah, Ka honhilh ahi, Israelte lakah leng hichi tela ginna thupi ka mu kha mahmah kei, a chi a.

⁹When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude who followed him, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel.”

¹⁰Huan, a misawlte in ah a painawn ua, sikha tuh damin a muta uh.

¹⁰Those who were sent, returning to the house, found that the servant who had been sick was well.

¹¹Huan, sawtlou chikin khua khat Nain kichi ah a hoha; a nungjuite leh mipi tampitak a kiang ah a hoh sam ua.

¹¹It happened soon afterwards, that he went to a city called Nain. Many of his disciples, along with a great multitude, went with him.

¹²Huan, khopi kongkhak kiang a tunin, ngai in, misi a honjawng khia ua, a nu tapa neihsun ahi a, amah lah meithai ahi ngala; a khuate tampi a kiangah a om uh.

¹²Now when he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, one who was dead was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. Many people of the city were with her.

¹³Huan, Toupan meithainu a muh takin, a hehpih mahmaha, Kap ken, a chi a.

¹³When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, “Don’t cry.”

¹⁴Huan, a vanaiha, lang a khoiha; huchiin, a jawngte a khawlta ua. Huan, Tangval, thou in, ka honchi, a chi a.

¹⁴He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!”

¹⁵Huan, misi tuh a tu khia a, a hongpauta a. Huan, Jesun a nu kiangah a peta.

¹⁵He who was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.

¹⁶Huan, mi tengtengin a lau ua, Pathian a phat ua, I lak ah jawlnei thupi tak a hongsuakta, a chi ua, Pathianin a mite hongvehta ahi, a chi uh.

¹⁶Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and, “God has visited his people!”

¹⁷Huan, huai mi tungtang thu tuh Judia gam tengtengah leh a kiang vel gam tengah a thang kheta a.

¹⁷This report went out concerning him in the whole of Judea, and in all the surrounding region.

¹⁸Huan, Johan nungjuiten huai thu tengteng Johan a hilh ua.

¹⁸The disciples of John told him about all these things.

¹⁹Huchiin, Johanin a nungjuite nih a sama, Toupa kiangah a sawla, Hongpai dingpa na hi hia, mi dang hungaih lailai ding ka hi uhia? chiin.

¹⁹John, calling to himself two of his disciples, sent them to Jesus, saying, “Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for another?”

²⁰Huan, mite tuh a kiang a hongtun un, Baptispa Johanin, Hongpai dingpa na hi hia, mi dang hungaihlailai ding ka hi uhia? chiin, na kiangah kou a honsawl, a chi ua.

²⁰When the men had come to him, they said, “John the Baptizer has sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?’”

²¹Huan, huailai takin Jesun chinate, hipi veite, dawi matte tampi a hihdama, mittaw tampite leng a mit uh a hihvaka.

²¹In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight.

²²Huan, a kiang uah, Pai nawnta unla, thil na muh uleh na jak uh Johan vahilh un; mittawte a mit uh a hongvakta, khebaite khein a hongpaita ua, phakte a hongsiangthouta uh, bengngongte leng a bil uh a hongvakta, misite kaihthohin a omta uh, ajawngten Tanchin Hoih hilh a tangta uh.

²²Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.

²³Huan, kuapeuh ka tunga lunghihlouhna mu loutuh a hampha hi, a chi a, a dawnga.

²³ Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”

²⁴Huan, Johan sawltakte a pai nung un Jesun mipite kiangah Johan thu a genta a, Bang en dinga gamdaia pai khia neita ua? Sialluang huih mut ling maw?

²⁴When John’s messengers had departed, he began to tell the multitudes about John, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

²⁵A hihkeileh, bang en dingpena pai khia neita ua? Puan nem silhmi maw? Ngai un, puan thupi silh leh mi nuamsate kumpipate in khawngah eive a om uh.

²⁵ But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Behold, those who are gorgeously dressed, and live delicately, are in kings’ courts.

²⁶Ahihkeileh, bang en ding penin ahia na pai khiak uh? Jawlnei maw? A hi tawk vo oi, ka honchi ahi, jawlnei sanga leng thupijaw.

²⁶ But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.

²⁷En dih, ka thangkou na ma ah ka sawl ahi, aman na ma ah na lam a bawl ding, chi-a, a tanchin kigelh, hiai mipa ahi.

²⁷ This is he of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’ Malachi 3:1

²⁸Numei suan lakah Johan sanga thupi jaw a om kei; himahleh, Pathian gama mi neu pen leng amah sangin a thupi jaw, ka honchi a chi a.

²⁸ “For I tell you, among those who are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptizer, yet he who is least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he.”

²⁹Huan, mi tengtengin a jak un, siahkhonmite toh, Johan baptisma natangsa ahi ua, Pathian siam a tangsak uhi.

²⁹When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptized with John’s baptism.

³⁰Pharisaite leh dan theimiten bel a kianga baptisma natangsa ahi kei ua, amaua dinga Pathianin a hoih dia a sehsak tuh a deih kei uh.

³⁰But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God, not being baptized by him themselves.

³¹Huchiin Jesu mahin, Tulai khangthakte bang toh ka teh de aw? bangtobang ahi ua?

³¹ TR adds “But the Lord said,” “To what then will I liken the people of this generation? What are they like?

³²Naupang dawlmuna tua, Tamngai hon tumsak unga, lam lou uchina; kap huphup unga, nou lah kaptuan lou uchina, chia, kichi tuah bang ahi uh.

³² They are like children who sit in the marketplace, and call one to another, saying, ‘We piped to you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned, and you didn’t weep.’

³³Baptispa Johan a hongpaia, tanghou a ne keia, uain leng a dawn kei a, nou ten, Dawi jawl ei ve, na chi ua.

³³ For John the Baptizer came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’

³⁴Mihing Tapa a hongpaia, a nein a dawna, nouten, En dih uh, anhaipa, uain haipa, siahkhonmite leh mi khialte lawm: na chi ngal ua.

³⁴ The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold, a gluttonous man, and a drunkard; a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’

³⁵Himahleh, pilna tuh a ta tengtengin siam a tan uh.

³⁵ Wisdom is justified by all her children.”

³⁶Huan, Pharisaite laka mi khatin a kianga an ne din a deih a. Huan, huai Pharisai in ah a luta, an a um a.

³⁶One of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. He entered into the Pharisee’s house, and sat at the table.

³⁷Huan, ngai dih, huai khuaa numei khat omin Pharisai in ah an umin a tu chih a theih takin alabasta bawmin thau namtui a hontawi a,

³⁷Behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that he was reclining in the Pharisee’s house, she brought an alabaster jar of ointment.

³⁸A nungah a khepek bul ah kap kawmin a dinga, a khituiin a khepek a sukawt a, a samin a nula, a khepek tuh a tawp a, thau namtuiin a nuh.

³⁸Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

³⁹Huan, a sampa Pharisaiin huai a muhin, a lungsimin, Hiai mi jawlnei a hih leh akhoihnu numei kua ahia, mi bangchi ahia, theih tuaktak hi a, mi khial ahi ngala, a chi a.

³⁹Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”

⁴⁰Huan, Jesun, a kiangah, Simon, na kiangah thu kamkhat gen ding ka nei, a chi a, a dawnga, Huan, aman, Bang ahia, Sinsakpa? a chi a.

⁴⁰Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”

⁴¹Huan, Jesun, Dangka leitawi sak kuahiamin leibami nih a neia: khatin makhai za nga a ba a, khatin sawm nga.

⁴¹ “A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

⁴²Huan, a ditna ding a neikei a, a ngaidam tuaktuak ta. Huchiin, huai mite a kuain ahia amah it zo ding? a chi a.

⁴² When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?”

⁴³Simonin, A ngaihdam diak penin hiin ka gingta, a chi a, a dawnga. Huan, aman, a kiangah, Na chi dik, a chi a.

⁴³Simon answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”

⁴⁴Huan, numei lam a nga a, Simon kiangah, Hiai numei na mu hia? Na in ah ka honglutta, nang ka khepek silna ding tui nahon pe keia, aman tuh a khituiin ka khepek a sukawta, a samin a nula.

⁴⁴Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.

⁴⁵Nang tawp himhim non tawp kei; aman tuh ka honglut nungsiah ka khepek tawp a tawlnga kei.

⁴⁵ You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.

⁴⁶Nang ka lutang ah thau non nilh kei; aman tuh ka khepek thau namtui a nilh.

⁴⁶ You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.

⁴⁷Huaijiakin ka honchi ahi, A khelhna tampi ngaihdamin a omta; aman nakpitakin a it hi; a hihhangin, ngaihdam tawmin, neuchikin a it nak, a chi a.

⁴⁷ Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”

⁴⁸Huan, numei kiangah, Na khelhnate ngaihdam ahi ta, a chi a.

⁴⁸He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

⁴⁹Huan, a an umpihten, Mi khialte nangawn ngaidam kua ahia eita? a kichi ua.Huan, aman, numei kiangah, Na ginna hotdam na hih loh ahi, khamuang takin pai in, a chi hi.

⁴⁹Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

⁵⁰Huan, aman, numei kiangah, Na ginna hotdam na hih loh ahi, khamuang takin pai in, a chi hi.

⁵⁰He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
