Mark 5 (CFM) · Opened

1Cun Jesuh le a dungthluntu pawl cu Galilee tili khatla ral ih Gerasenes ram an va ban.On the other side of the sea, they arrived in the region of the Gerasenes.

2Cun Jesuh cu lawng sung in a ṭum ih, thlarau sia ih molhmi pa pakhat cu thlan sung in suak pit in Jesuh sinah a tiang lohli.As soon as Jesus got out of the boat, He was met by a man with an unclean spirit, who was coming from the tombs.

3Cuvai pa cu thlan lakih ummi a i. Hutu khaw nih thirhri hman in an khih thei lomi pa a si.This man had been living in the tombs and could no longer be restrained, even with chains.

4Ke khihnak hri le thirhri pawl thawn hma tamngai an khit na in cuvai hri pawl cu a catter hnei colh ih hutu khaw cuvai pa neh thei dingin an tha a ṭha lo.Though he was often bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and shattered the shackles. Now there was no one with the strength to subdue him.

5Sun zan in thlan lak le tlang lakah a hek ih ama le ma khaw lung thawn a at fa.Night and day in the tombs and in the mountains he kept crying out and cutting himself with stones.

6Cun lam hla in Jesuh a hei hmuh tikah, a va zuang ih Jesuh ih hmai ah cun a khuk a bil.When the man saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees before Him.

7Cun a aw neih patawp in a hek ih, “Cungnungbik Pathian ih Fapa, Jesuh! Nang le kei cu zangtu kan pehtlai fa? Pathian hmin in ta ka dil, ka hrem hram hlah!” tiah a ti.And he shouted in a loud voice, “What do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You before God not to torture me!”

8(Zangahtihle Jesuh nih a sinah, “Nang thlarau sia, hi pa ih sung in suak!” tiah a tih takdah ruangah a si.)For Jesus had already declared, “Come out of this man, you unclean spirit!”

9Cun Jesuh nih, “Na hmin hu a si?” tiah a sut. Cuvai pa nih, “Ka hmin cu ‘Burpi’ a si — zangahtihle kan tam setak!” tiah a sawn.“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “My name is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.”

10Cun cuvai pa nih thlarau thianglo pawl cuvai ram in dawi hnei colh lo dingah Jesuh cu thungai thlak in a dil.And he begged Jesus repeatedly not to send them out of that region.

11Culaifangah cuvai kiangkap tlanghmual hrial ah vok rual tampi an tlang deido.There on the nearby hillside a large herd of pigs was feeding.

12Cun thlarau thianglo pawl nih Jesuh sinah, “Vok rual sinah kan hei thlah, an sungah kan lut ter,” tiah an hler.So the demons begged Jesus, “Send us to the pigs, so that we may enter them.”

13An hlerh mangin Jesuh nih a sian hnei. Thlarau thianglo pawl cu cuvai pa ih sungin an suak ih vok rual sungah an lut. Cun vok rual pawl — an zatein 2,000 hrawng — cu kak lakah an dawp ih tili sungah ṭil pit in an thi.He gave them permission, and the unclean spirits came out and went into the pigs, and the herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the water.

14Vok kiltu pawl cu an va zuang ih, cuvai thuhla cu khawpi sung le ram sungah an than ciamco. Cun mipi pawl cu thil cangmi zoh dingah an va feh.Those tending the pigs ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.

15Mipi pawl cu Jesuh sin an va tiang. Thlarau sia “Burpi” ih molhmi pa cu hnipuan a hru ih a lungfim te in an va hmu, cule an ṭih.When they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons sitting there, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

16Thlarau sia ih molhmi pa tlun ih thil cangmi le vok rual tlun ih thil cangmi a hmutu pawl nih cuvai thu cu mi an sim.Those who had seen it described what had happened to the demon-possessed man and also to the pigs.

17Cun mipi pawl nih Jesuh cu an ram in suak dingah an hler.And the people began to beg Jesus to leave their region.

18Cule Jesuh cu lawng sungih a luh tikah, thlarau sia ih luhhnawh dah mi pa nih a sinah um dingin a hler.As He was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed by the demons begged to go with Him.

19Asinain Jesuh nih a sian lo ih a sinah, “Inn ah va ṭin pit in na sungkua pawl sinah, Bawipa nih na hrangah zangtluk thil maksak a tuah tihle zangtluk in na tlun ah thinfahnak a nei tih khi va sim hnei sawn,” tiah a forh.But Jesus would not allow him. “Go home to your own people,” He said, “and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and what mercy He has shown you.”

20Cun cuvai pa cu a va feh ih Jesuh nih a hrangih a tuahsak mi thuhla cu Dekhapolis ram sungah a sim. Cun mi hmahhmah an mang a bang.So the man went away and began to proclaim throughout the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And everyone was amazed.

21Cun Jesuh cu tili khatla ral ah lawng thawn a feh sal. Jesuh ih hram ah minung tamngai an hmuakkhawm fa, cule Jesuh cu tili kam ah a si.When Jesus had again crossed by boat to the other side, a large crowd gathered around Him beside the sea.

22Cun sinakok uktu pawl lakih pakhat, a hmin ah Jairas tihmi pa a tiangih Jesuh a hmuh tikah a ke hram ah a bok ih,A synagogue leader named Jairus arrived, and seeing Jesus, he fell at His feet

23thungai thlakin thinfak a dil, “Ka fanu te a thi i ngaingai thok. A dam ih a nun theinak dingah kan sinah tiangin ka fanu ih tlun ah na kut suang hram,” tiah a ti.and pleaded with Him urgently, “My little daughter is near death. Please come and place Your hands on her, so that she will be healed and live.”

24Cun Jesuh cu cuvai pa thawn an feh. Mipi tamngai nih an thlun ih Jesuh cu an pah pah deido.So Jesus went with him, and a large crowd followed and pressed around Him.

25Cuvai hmun ah kum hleinih sung thi-dok fahnak ih a faktu numi pakhat a um.And a woman was there who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years.

26A neihmi hmahhmah ne kau in sibawi tamngai sinah a tuamhlawm fa cem naʼn dam hoi loʼn a bese deuhdeuh.She had borne much agony under the care of many physicians and had spent all she had, but to no avail. Instead, her condition had only grown worse.

27Cuvai nu cu Jesuh ih thuhla a thei ih mipi pawl lakin Jesuh cu a dung laʼn a thlun, cule Jesuh ih puan cu a tham.When the woman heard about Jesus, she came up through the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak.

28Zangahtihle, “A puan tal ka tham ngah ahcun ka dam kau thok,” tiah a ti.For she kept saying, “If only I touch His garments, I will be healed.”

29Hmakhatte ah a thi dokmi cu a dam ih a fahnak in damter a i cem tih khaw a taksa nih a fiah.Immediately her bleeding stopped, and she sensed in her body that she was healed of her affliction.

30Jesuh cu a sung in a huham a suak tih a fiahfa lohli, cule mipi la ah a herfa ih, “Hutu nih ka puan nan tham?” tiah a sut hnei.At once Jesus was aware that power had gone out from Him. Turning to the crowd, He asked, “Who touched My garments?”

31Cun a dungthluntu pawl nih a sinah, “Mipi pawl nih ta pah eng deido cu na hmu kau, zangtin ‘Hutu nih ka puan nan tham?’ na ti thiam,” tiah an let.His disciples answered, “You can see the crowd pressing in on You, and yet You ask, ‘Who touched Me?’”

32A puan thamtu fiah duh ah kiangkap pawl cu a zoh.But He kept looking around to see who had done this.

33Asinain numi nu cu, a cung ih thil cangmi cu a fiah ih, ṭih le ṭhia pah in Jesuh ih ke hram ah a bok. Cule Jesuh sinah thudik zaten a sim colh.Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him trembling in fear, and she told Him the whole truth.

34Cun Jesuh nih a sinah, “Ka fanu, na zupnak nih ta damter cem, hnangamten va feh la na fahnak in dam dah hram law,” tiah a ti.“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be free of your affliction.”

35Jesuh cu a ṭon ngelngo lai ah, sinakok uktu pa ih inn in mi an tiang ih, “Na fanu cu a thi cem. Zangruangah Sayapa cu na hnaihnok rih ngelngo?” tiah an ti.While He was still speaking, messengers from the house of Jairus arrived and said, “Your daughter is dead; why bother the Teacher anymore?”

36Asinain Jesuh nih an ṭonmi cu zanghrel lo in sinakok uktu pa sinah, “Ṭih vai hlah, zum kau lai ci,” tiah a ti.But Jesus overheard their conversation and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe.”

37Jesuh nih Peter, James, le James ih naupa Johan hrello hutukhaw a dung thlun a sian hnei lo.And He did not allow anyone to accompany Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.

38Sinakok uktu pa ih inn an va bat tikah, mipi pawl ṭap le aihram in an buai deido cu a va hmu hnei.When they arrived at the house of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw the commotion and the people weeping and wailing loudly.

39Cun inn songah a lut ih an sinah, “Zangruangah ṭap le aihram in nan buai deido? Hi nappang nute hi a thi lo pi — a ihhmul mi a i!” tiah a ti hnei.He went inside and asked, “Why all this commotion and weeping? The child is not dead, but asleep.”

40Cun mipi pawl nih Jesuh cu an hnihsan. Cun Jesuh nih an zaten lengah a suak ter hnei colh. Nappang nu ih nu le pa le a ṭhit tak hneimi pawl thawn nappang nu ih umnak ah cun an lut.And they laughed at Him. After He had put them all outside, He took the child’s father and mother and His own companions, and went in to see the child.

41Cun a kut in nappang nu cu a tlai ih, “Talitha, koum!” tiah a ti. A sullam cu “Nute, hang tho ta ti!” tinak a i.Taking her by the hand, Jesus said, “Talitha koum!” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”

42Hmakhatte ah nappang nu a hang tho lohli ih a feh. (Zangahtihle cuvai nu cu kum hleinih mi a i.) Cucu an mang a bang taktak.Immediately the girl got up and began to walk around (she was twelve years old). And at once they were utterly astounded.

43Cun Jesuh nih hi thu hi hukhaw fiah ter lo dingin khoh ngaiin thu a pe hnei ih cuvai nu ih ei dingah thil pakhat khat pek a forh hnei.Then Jesus gave strict orders that no one should know about this, and He told them to give her something to eat.
