Luke 5 (HLTTHB)

1Hypoet taw Bawipa Jesu ce thlang kqeng mi Genesaret tuili keng awh dyi hy, cawh thlang kqeng ing Khawsak awi ce ngai uhy,On one occasion, while Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret with the crowd pressing in on Him to hear the word of God,

2tui keng awh ngak hawikhqi ing a mi taak hyt lawng pakkhih ce hu hy, ngak hawikhqi taw a mi lawk chuk uhy.He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.

3Lawng pynoet ak khuiawh ce lut hy, cawhkaw lawng cetaw Simon a lawng na awm hy. Lawng ce tui benna tun bet aham Simon ce kqawn pehy. Cekcoengawh lawng awh ce ngawi nawh thlangkhqi ce cawngpyi hy.Jesus got into the boat belonging to Simon and asked him to put out a little from shore. And sitting down, He taught the people from the boat.

4Awi ak kqawn boeih coengawh, Simon venawh, “Tuili dung na thoeih nawh lawk ce khawng lah,” tina hy.When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”

5Simon ing, “Bawipa than oet pyt khawng hawh hlai u nyng ikawawm am hu u nyng. Cehlai nak awi awh khawng lah vang nyng,” tina hy.“Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”

6Lawk ce amik khawng awhtaw, nga khawzah tu unawh lawk ce teek pit pit hy.When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.

7Cedawngawh lawng ak chang nakaw a mi pyikhqi ce ak bawm aham a mi kut ing vaih uhy, cekkhqi ce law unawh lawng ang cum pit pit dyna nga ce ak be na tu uhy.So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

8Simon Piter ing a huh awh, Jesu a khawkung awh khuk sym doena, “Bawipa, ni cehtaak mai, thlak thawlh na awm nyng,” tina hy.When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”

9Nga a mim tu awh Piter ingkaw a pyikhqi ce a mik kawpoek kyi hy,For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,

10Simon a pyi, Zebedee a caqawi Jakob ingkaw Johan awm anik kawpoek kyi hy. Cekcoengawh Jesu ing Simon a venawh, “Koeh kqih; tuh awhkawng thlang ak tukung na awm hawh kawp ti,” tina hy.and so were his partners James and John, the sons of Zebedee. “Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to Simon. “From now on you will catch men.”

11Lawng ce kawngceng na amik dawh coengawh, ik-oeih boeih ce cehta unawh a hu awh bat uhy.And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.

12Khaw pynoet awh a awm awh, mynqai ak neh thlang pynoet ce law hy. Jesu ce a huh awh, dek na koep nawh qeennaak thoeh hy, “Bawipa, na ngaih awhtaw ni ciimcaih sak lah,” tina hy.While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he fell facedown and begged Him, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”

13Jesu ing a kut zyng nawh bi hy. “Ngaih nyng, qoei hlah!” tina hy. Cawh a mynqai ce caih pahoei hy.Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.

14Jesu ing a venawh, “U a venawh awm koeh kqawn, cet nawh khawsoeih a venna na pum ce nam huh coengawh, na qoeinaak a dawngawh Mosi ak awipeek a myihna, a mingmih ing a mi simnaak aham bulnaak ce sai lah,” tina hy.“Do not tell anyone,” Jesus instructed him. “But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”

15Cehlai anih akawng ce thang khqoet hy, cedawngawh ak awi ngai ham ingkaw tlawhnaak qoei sak aham thlangkhqi ce law uhy.But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear Him and to be healed of their sicknesses.

16Cehlai Jesu taw a dingnaak na amah doeng cet poepa nawh cykcah hy.Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.

17Hypoet taw thlang a cawngpyi awh, Kalili qam, Judah qam ingkaw Jerusalem khaw awhkaw Farasikhqi ingkaw anaa awi cawngpyikungkhqi ce amah cawh ngawi uhy. Cawh thlak tlo qoei sak aham Bawipa ak thaawmnaak ce a venawh awm hy.One day Jesus was teaching, and the Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. People had come from Jerusalem and from every village of Galilee and Judea, and the power of the Lord was present for Him to heal the sick.

18Thlang vang ing ak khawn thlang pynoet ce a hiphaih awh kawt law uhy, ipkhui na khyn phaat unawh a haiawh tloeng peek aham ngaih uhy.Just then some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to bring him inside to set him before Jesus,

19Cehlai thlang a be aih a dawngawh ipkhui na am khyn thai uhy, cedawngawh iptih na kaai unawh qui ing thlang anglak li awh, Jesu a haiawh hiphaih mah na nuk thlaak pe uhy.but they could not find a way through the crowd. So they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus.

20A mingmih ak cangnaak ce Jesu ing a huh awh, “Thlang pa aw, na thawlhnaak ce qeenna awm hawh hy,” tina hy.When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”

21Cawh Farasikhqi ingkaw anaa awi cawngpyikungkhqi ing, “U nu Khawsa ak the ak khanaak ve? Khawsa doeng am awhtaw u ing nu thawlh qeenkhaw ang ngai thai?” ti uhy.But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22A mingmih ak kawpoek ce Jesu ing sim pe khqi nawh, “Ikawtih cemyihna namik kawlung khuiawh namik poek uh?Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?

23Han nu ak zoei bet: 'Na thawlh qeenna awm hawh hy,' tive nu, am awhtaw 'Tho nawh cet hlah,' tive nu?Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?

24Cehlai thlanghqing Capa ing khawmdek awh thawlh qeennaak tahy, tice nami simnaak aham,” tinak khqi hy. Ak khawn na ce, “Ka nik kqawn peek, tho, na hiphaih ce lo nawh imna voei hlah,” tina hy.But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins…” He said to the paralytic, “I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”

25A mingmih haiawh ce dyi pahoei nawh, a hiphaih ce a lawh coengawh Khawsa kyihcah doena im na ce cet hy.And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.

26Thlang boeih a mik kawpoek kyi nawh Khawsa ce kyihcah uhy. Ngaih kyi doena, “Tuhngawi awh kawpoek kyi ik-oeih ni hu uhy,” ti uhy.Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”

27Cekcoengawh Jesu ce cet nawh mangmu cawinaak awh ak ngawi mangmu ak cawikung Levi ak mingnaak thlang pynoet ce hu hy. A venawh, “Ka hu awh bat lah,” tina hy.After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,

28Levi ce tho nawh ik-oeihkhqi ce a cehtaak coengawh a hu awh bat hy.and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.

29Cekcoengawh Levi ing amah a im awh Jesu aham buh veelnaak poei ak bau soeih sai pehy. Mangmu ak cawikungkhqi ingkaw thlak changkhqi thlang khawzah ce Jesu mi buh ai haih hy.Then Levi hosted a great banquet for Jesus at his house. A large crowd of tax collectors was there, along with others who were eating with them.

30Cehlai Farasikhqi ingkaw anaa awi cawngpyikungkhqi ing a mi huh awh ce a hubatkhqi venawh saai bi uhy, “Kawtih mangmu ak cawikung 'Thlak thawlhkhqi' mi buh a mi ai haih?” tinak khqi uhy.But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

31Jesu ing, “Sakdip thlang ing siboei am ngoe hy, cehlai thlak tlo ing ni a ngoe.Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

32Thlak dyng khy aham am law nyng, thlak thawlh a zutnaak aham ni ka law,” tinak khqi hy.I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

33A mingmih ing a venawh, “Johan a hubatkhqi ingtaw buh zeih poepa unawh cykcah uhy, Farasikhqi a hubatkhqi ingawm, cehlai nang a hubatkhqi ingtaw aw a ai uhy,” tina uhy.Then they said to Him, “John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees frequently fast and pray, but Yours keep on eating and drinking.”

34Jesu ing, “Zuk lokung a awm khuiawh ak khinkhqi buh namik zeih hly sak nu?Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?

35Cehlai zuk lokung lawh peek valhnaak a tym ce pha kaw; cawh buh zeih bit kawm uh,” tinak khqi hy.But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”

36A mingmih a venawh vawhkaw nyhtahnaak awi ve kqawn pehy: “U ingawm hi ak thai ce teek nawh hi ak kqym ap bu na khawi hy. Ak bunaak man, hi ak thai ce awm teek kaw, cekcoengawh hi ak kqym ingawm am qoep laklaw kaw.He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will tear the new garment as well, and the patch from the new will not match the old.

37U ingawm misur tui ak thai ce cikthlyng ak kqym awh am thun khawi hy. A thun mai mantaw, misur tui ak thai ing cikthlyng ak kqym ce hqe kawmsaw, misur tui ingkaw cikthlyng ce plawci bawk kaw.And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined.

38Cedawngawh misur tui ak thai taw cikthlyng ak thai awh thun aham awm hy.Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.

39Misur tui ak kqym ce tui khqoet hy a mi ti a dawngawh, u ingawm misur tui ak kqym a awk coengawh misur tui ak thai ce am ngaih khawi hy,” tinak khqi hy.And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
