¹Huan, ni nih nungin Paikan Ankuangluina leh Tanghou silngou sohlouh Ankuangluina om ding ahi a; siampu liante leh laigelhmiten, amah zekhema, mana, a hihlup theihna dingdan a zongzong ua;

¹It was now two days before the feast of the Passover and the unleavened bread, and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might seize him by deception, and kill him.

²himahleh, Ankuanglui sungin hi keiheh, huchilouin jaw vantang lakah buaina a hongom kha ding, a chi ua.

²For they said, “Not during the feast, because there might be a riot of the people.”

³Huan, Bethani khuaa phak Simon ina a om laia, ankuang a um laiin numei khat, alabaster bawma spiknardi thau gimlim man tampi tawiin a honga, a bawm tuh a hihkhama, a lu ah a sungta a.

³While he was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster jar of ointment of pure nard—very costly. She broke the jar, and poured it over his head.

⁴Himahleh, khenkhat tuh a lunghita kei ua, Bang dinga thau gimlim hihmang mawkmawk ahia?

⁴But there were some who were indignant among themselves, saying, “Why has this ointment been wasted?

⁵Hiai thau makhai za thum sanga tamjawa juaka, mi gentheite kianga piak theih ahi ngala, a chi ua. Huchiin, a tungah a phunta uh.

⁵For this might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii, 300 denarii was about a years wages for an agricultural laborer. and given to the poor.” They grumbled against her.

⁶Jesun tuh, Hih hen aw; bangdia va hihbuai na hi ua? ka tungah thil hoihtak a hih ahi.

⁶But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for me.

⁷Mi gentheite chiklaipeuhin leng na kiang ua om ahi ua, na ut hun peuh un na hehpih thei ngal ua; kei bel chiklaipeuha na kiang ua om gige ding ka hi kei.

⁷ For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want to, you can do them good; but you will not always have me.

⁸A hihtheih khamkham a hih ahi; ka sapum vui dinga thau nuh khol ahi.

⁸ She has done what she could. She has anointed my body beforehand for the burying.

⁹Huchiin, chihtaktakin ka honhilh ahi, khovel tengteng koipeuhah leng Tanchin Hoih a kigenna ah hiai meithai thilhih leng amah theihgigena dingin a kigen jel ding hi, a chi hi.

⁹ Most certainly I tell you, wherever this Good News may be preached throughout the whole world, that which this woman has done will also be spoken of for a memorial of her.”

¹⁰Huan, Juda Iskariot, sawm leh nihte laka khatin, Jesu a kiang ua juausana a matsak theihna dingin siampu liante kiangah a vahoha.

¹⁰Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve, went away to the chief priests, that he might deliver him to them.

¹¹Huan, amau a jak tak un a kipak mahmah ua, a kiangah dangka piak achiamta uh. Huchiin, juausana matsakna dingdan lemtang a zongta hi.

¹¹They, when they heard it, were glad, and promised to give him money. He sought how he might conveniently deliver him.

¹²Huan, Tanghou Silngou-sohlouh ni, ni masapen, Paikan Ankuangluina belamnou a goh jelna ni uah, a nungjuiten a kiangah, Paikan Ankuanglui na nek theihna dingin koiah ahia vabawl le ung na ut? a chi ua.

¹²On the first day of unleavened bread, when they sacrificed the Passover, his disciples asked him, “Where do you want us to go and prepare that you may eat the Passover?”

¹³Huchiin, a nungjuite laka mi nih a sawla, a kiang uah Khopi ah valut unla, huai ah pasal bela tui pua in hontuak dia; amah jui un.

¹³He sent two of his disciples, and said to them, “Go into the city, and there you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water. Follow him,

¹⁴Huan, a lutna peuhah, huai intekpa kiangah, Sinsakpan, Ka nungjuite toh Paikan Ankuang ka nek na ding uh, ka mikhual indan koilai ahia? a chi, na chi ding uh.

¹⁴ and wherever he enters in, tell the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says, “Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’

¹⁵Huchiin, amahmahin dantan tungnung za tak, van omsa, mansa dimdiam a honensak dia; huai ah eia dingin bawl un, a chi a.

¹⁵ He will himself show you a large upper room furnished and ready. Get ready for us there.”

¹⁶Huan, nungjuite a pawtta ua, khopi ah a valut ua, a kiang ua a gen bang takin a vamu ua; huan, Paikan Ankuangluina a bawlta uh.

¹⁶His disciples went out, and came into the city, and found things as he had said to them, and they prepared the Passover.

¹⁷Huan, nitaklam a honghihin, amah tuh sawm leh nihte toh a vahoh-ta ua.

¹⁷When it was evening he came with the twelve.

¹⁸Huan, a um ua, a nek lai un, Jesun, Chihtaktakin ka honhilh ahi, na lak ua mi khat, ka kianga ne sam ngeiin, honjuausanin honmansak ding, a chi a.

¹⁸As they sat and were eating, Jesus said, “Most certainly I tell you, one of you will betray me—he who eats with me.”

¹⁹Huan, a lungkham panta ua, khatkhatin a kiangah, Keimah ka hi hia? a chi chiat ua.

¹⁹They began to be sorrowful, and to ask him one by one, “Surely not I?” And another said, “Surely not I?”

²⁰Huan, aman tuh a kiang uah, sawm leh nihte laka mi khat, ka kuanga tanghou hondiahpihpa ahi.

²⁰He answered them, “It is one of the twelve, he who dips with me in the dish.

²¹Mihing Tapa a tanchin a gelh bang tak un a pai ding: himahleh, Mihing Tapa mansak ding mipa tung a gik hi: Huai mihing jaw piang kei leh amah adin a hoihzo ding, a chi a.

²¹ For the Son of Man goes, even as it is written about him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would be better for that man if he had not been born.”

²²Huan, a nek lai un Jesun tanghou a la a, a vualjawl zohin a balkhama, a kiang uah a pia a, La un; hiai ka sapum ahi, a chi a.

²²As they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had blessed, he broke it, and gave to them, and said, “Take, eat. This is my body.”

²³Huan, nou a la a, kipah thu a gen zohin a kiang uah a pia a; huchiin, a vek un a dawn chiat ua.

²³He took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave to them. They all drank of it.

²⁴Huan, aman a kiang uah, Hiai ka sisan, mi tampi dia pawt ding, thukhunna ahi.

²⁴He said to them, “This is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many.

²⁵Chihtaktakin ka honhilh ahi, Pathian Gama a thak ka dawn ni a tun masiah grep gui gaha ka dawn nawnta kei ding, a chi hi.

²⁵ Most certainly I tell you, I will no more drink of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it anew in the Kingdom of God.”

²⁶Huan, la a sakzoh un, a pawt ua, Oliv tangah a hohta uh.

²⁶When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

²⁷Huan, Jesun a kiang uah, Na vek un lungkiain nontaisan ding uh, Belamchingpa ka khen dia, belamte a dalh ding uh, chih gelh ahi ngala.

²⁷Jesus said to them, “All of you will be made to stumble because of me tonight, for it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’ Zechariah 13:7

²⁸Himahleh, ka thohnawn nungin Galili gamah na ma uah ka pai ding, a chi a.

²⁸ However, after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee.”

²⁹Peterin bel a kiangah, A vek un lungkiain hontaisan mahle uh, ken jaw kontaisan kei ding, a chi a.

²⁹But Peter said to him, “Although all will be offended, yet I will not.”

³⁰Huan, Jesun a kiangah, Chihtaktakin ka honhilh ahi, Tu jan ngeingeiin, ak nih vei a khuan main, nang thumvei non kitheihmohbawl ding, a chi a.

³⁰Jesus said to him, “Most certainly I tell you, that you today, even this night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.”

³¹Aman bel khauhtakin, Na sihna ah si sam ding himahleng ka honkitheihmohbawl kei hial ding, a chi guapguap a. Huchimah bangin a chi chiat uh.

³¹But he spoke all the more, “If I must die with you, I will not deny you.” They all said the same thing.

³²Huan, Gethsemani a chih mun uh a tung ua; huan, aman tuh a nungjuite kiangah, Ka thum sung teng hiaiah na tu un, achia.

³²They came to a place which was named Gethsemane. He said to his disciples, “Sit here, while I pray.”

³³Huan, Peter, Jakob leh Johan a pi a, nak pitaka lungkhamin a mangbang mahmah a.

³³He took with him Peter, James, and John, and began to be greatly troubled and distressed.

³⁴Huchiin a kiang uah, Ka kha a lungkham mahmaha, sihna khop hial ahi; hiaiah om unla, kiging gige un, a chi a.

³⁴He said to them, “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here, and watch.”

³⁵Huan, neukhain ma lamah a vapai zeka, leiah a khupboh a, hih theih hi leh, huai hunin amah pel dingin a thuma.

³⁵He went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass away from him.

³⁶Abba, Pa, bangkim na hihtheia; hiai nou kei akipanin la mang in; himahleh, kei thu hilou in nangmah thuthu hijaw hen, a chi a.

³⁶He said, “Abba, Father, all things are possible to you. Please remove this cup from me. However, not what I desire, but what you desire.”

³⁷Huan, a hongpaia, amau tuh ihmuin a honmu a, huchiin, Peter kiangah, Simon, ihmu na hi maw? Dak kal khat leng kiging gigein na om theikei maw?

³⁷He came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, “Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn’t you watch one hour?

³⁸Khemnaa na lut louhna ding un kiging gigein thum un. Khain tuh a ngapa, sa jaw a hat kei, a chi a.

³⁸ Watch and pray, that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

³⁹Huan, a vahoh nawna, a thugen ngei genin a thum nawna.

³⁹Again he went away, and prayed, saying the same words.

⁴⁰Huan, a hongpai nawna amau tuh ihmuin a honmu nawna, a ihmut uh a suak mahmah ngala; dawn dan leng a theikei uh.

⁴⁰Again he returned, and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy, and they didn’t know what to answer him.

⁴¹Huan, a hongpai thum veina ah, a kiang uah, Na ihmu lailai umaw, na tawlnga lailai umaw? A hunta ve; a hun hongtungta; mihing Tapa mikhialte khuta juausana piak ahita.

⁴¹He came the third time, and said to them, “Sleep on now, and take your rest. It is enough. The hour has come. Behold, the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

⁴²Thou un, i pai ding uh; en un, hon juausanpa hongnai, a chi a.

⁴² Arise, let us be going. Behold, he who betrays me is at hand.”

⁴³Huan, a gen laitakin, Juda, sawm leh nihte laka mi khat tuh, a hongtungpahta ngala, siampu liante leh laigelhmite leh upate akipan mipi, temsau leh khetbuk tawite toh.

⁴³Immediately, while he was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, came—and with him a multitude with swords and clubs, from the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders.

⁴⁴Huan, juausanpan, Ka tawp peuhmah amah ahi ding; man unla, kizentakin na pi mang ding uh, chiin chiamtehna ding a na hilhkhol diamdiama.

⁴⁴Now he who betrayed him had given them a sign, saying, “Whomever I will kiss, that is he. Seize him, and lead him away safely.”

⁴⁵Huchiin, a tun takin amah a vanaih paha, Rabbi: chiin, a tawp tantan a.

⁴⁵When he had come, immediately he came to him, and said, “Rabbi! Rabbi!” and kissed him.

⁴⁶Huan, amah a lenta ua, a manta uh.

⁴⁶They laid their hands on him, and seized him.

⁴⁷Huan, a kianga dingte laka mi kua hiamin a temsaua doka, siampu lianpen sikha a sata, a bil a sat khiak sak.

⁴⁷But a certain one of those who stood by drew his sword, and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

⁴⁸Huan, Jesun amau a houpiha, a kiang uah, Temsaute, khetbukte tawiin suamhat man ding bang hialin, honman dingin nong kuan u maw?

⁴⁸Jesus answered them, “Have you come out, as against a robber, with swords and clubs to seize me?

⁴⁹Pathian biakin ah ni tenga thuhilhin na kiang uah ka om jela; non man ngal kei ua. Himahleh, Laisiangthou a hongtun theihna ding ei ve, a chi a.

⁴⁹ I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and you didn’t arrest me. But this is so that the Scriptures might be fulfilled.”

⁵⁰Huan, a vek un amah a nusia ua, a taimang vekta uh.

⁵⁰They all left him, and fled.

⁵¹Huan, tangval kuahiam, puan malngat kia batin, amah a juia; huan, amah a na man uh;

⁵¹A certain young man followed him, having a linen cloth thrown around himself, over his naked body. The young men grabbed him,

⁵²Himahleh, a puan malngat a taisana, vuaktangin a taimangta.

⁵²but he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.

⁵³Huan, Jesu tuh siampu lianpen kiangah a pi ua; huan, siampu liante, laigelhmite tengteng toh a hongton uh.

⁵³They led Jesus away to the high priest. All the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes came together with him.

⁵⁴Huan, Peterin gamla pia kipanin amah a juia, siampu lianpen inhuangsung konglai phain; huan, sikhate lakah mei lum awiin a tu sam a.

⁵⁴Peter had followed him from a distance, until he came into the court of the high priest. He was sitting with the officers, and warming himself in the light of the fire.

⁵⁵Huan, Jesu a hihlup theihna ding un siampu liante leh vaihawm mite tengtengin amah hekna a zong ua, a mu sam kei uh.

⁵⁵Now the chief priests and the whole council sought witnesses against Jesus to put him to death, and found none.

⁵⁶Mi tampiin juauin a hek ua, himahleh, a hekna thu uh a kituak sam kei.

⁵⁶For many gave false testimony against him, and their testimony didn’t agree with each other.

⁵⁷Huan, kuate hiam a ding ua, juauin a hek ua,

⁵⁷Some stood up, and gave false testimony against him, saying,

⁵⁸Hiai min, Hiai Pathian biakin khuta lam ka hihse dia, ni thum sungin biakin dang, khuta lam louh, ka lam ding, a chih, ka ja uh, a chi ua.

⁵⁸“We heard him say, ‘I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.’”

⁵⁹Himahleh huchiin leng a hekna thu uh a kituak thei samsam kei.

⁵⁹Even so, their testimony did not agree.

⁶⁰Huan, siampu lianpen a laiah a ding khia a. Jesu kiangah, Bangmaha dawnglou maw? Hiaite honhekna bangchidan ahia? chiin, a donga.

⁶⁰The high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, “Have you no answer? What is it which these testify against you?”

⁶¹Amah lah a dai dide a, bangmahin a dawng kei a. Siampu lianpenin a kiangah, Kris, Hampha Tapa, na hi hia? chiin, a dong nawna.

⁶¹But he stayed quiet, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?”

⁶²Huan, Jesun, Hi e; Mihing Tapa Thilhihtheihna taklama tu a, van mei laka hongpai na mu ding uh, a chi a.

⁶²Jesus said, “I am. You will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of the sky.”

⁶³Huan, siampu lianpenin a puansilh a botkeka, Theihpih dang bang din i deih dia?

⁶³The high priest tore his clothes, and said, “What further need have we of witnesses?

⁶⁴Pathian a gensiatdan na zata uh; bangchi na sa ua? achia. Huan, a vek un amah tuh si takin a sep chiat ua;

⁶⁴You have heard the blasphemy! What do you think?” They all condemned him to be worthy of death.

⁶⁵Huan, a khenin amah chil a siat pan pah ua, a kiangah, Gen in, a chi ua. Huan, vengtuten a let kawm un a beng ekek uh.

⁶⁵Some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to beat him with fists, and to tell him, “Prophesy!” The officers struck him with the palms of their hands.

⁶⁶Huan, Peter tuh nuai lama inhuang sung konglaia a om laiin siampu lianpen sikha nungakte laka khat a hong paia,

⁶⁶As Peter was in the courtyard below, one of the maids of the high priest came,

⁶⁷Peter meilum awi a mua, a en a, Nang leng Jesu Nazaret mi kianga om na hi ve, a chi a.

⁶⁷and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him, and said, “You were also with the Nazarene, Jesus!”

⁶⁸Aman tuh, Na thugen ka theikei, a ngaihna himhim leng ka theikei, chiin, a kitheihmohbawl a. Huan, inlim ah a vapawt khia a; huchiin, ak a khuangta hi.

⁶⁸But he denied it, saying, “I neither know, nor understand what you are saying.” He went out on the porch, and the rooster crowed.

⁶⁹Huan, nungakin a mu a, a kianga dingte kiangah, Hiai mi a lak ua mi ahi, a chi nawnta a.

⁶⁹The maid saw him, and began again to tell those who stood by, “This is one of them.”

⁷⁰Himahleh a kitheihmohbawl nawna. Huan, sawtlou nungin a kianga dingten, Peter kiangah, A lak ua mi hi tawk teh, Galili gam a mi na hi ngala, a chi ua.

⁷⁰But he again denied it. After a little while again those who stood by said to Peter, “You truly are one of them, for you are a Galilean, and your speech shows it.”

⁷¹Aman tuh, Huai na mihing gen uh ka theikei, chiin, hamsia kilohin a kichiamta a.Huan, akkhuan nihveina tuh a khuangpah ngal hi. Huan, Peterin, Jesun a kianga, Ak nihvei a khuan main nang thumvei non kitheihmohbawl ding, a chih thu a theikhe thak nawn a. Huan, huai tuh a ngaihtuaha a kapta.

⁷¹But he began to curse, and to swear, “I don’t know this man of whom you speak!”

⁷²Huan, akkhuan nihveina tuh a khuangpah ngal hi. Huan, Peterin, Jesun a kianga, Ak nihvei a khuan main nang thumvei non kitheihmohbawl ding, a chih thu a theikhe thak nawn a. Huan, huai tuh a ngaihtuaha a kapta.

⁷²The rooster crowed the second time. Peter remembered the word, how that Jesus said to him, “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.” When he thought about that, he wept.
