Luke 23 (TCZCHONG)

1Chuin mipi kikhom chengse chun Jesu chu Rome Gamvaipo, Pilate hengah ahinpui tauve.Then the whole council rose and led Jesus away to Pilate.

2ama hon apansat nau thu chu aseipan un: “Hiche mipa hin kamiteu apuileng'in, Rome solkal kom'a kai pehlou ding tin aseijin chule ama tah jong Messiah, Leng akihisah e,” atiuve.And they began to accuse Him, saying, “We found this man subverting our nation, forbidding payment of taxes to Caesar, and proclaiming Himself to be Christ, a King.”

3Hijeh chun Pilate in ama chu adongin, “Nangma Judah te Lengpa nahim?” ati. Jesun adonbut in, “Kahi chu nasei khai” ati.So Pilate asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.

4Pilate chu thempu pipuiho leh mihonpi hengah ahung kiheiyin chule aseitai, “Hiche mipa chunga hin ima adihlou kamupoi!” ati.Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”

5Chuin ama hon asei tei-tei jengun, “Ahivanga, ama hin achena chan'a athuhil a konna boina asem jing jeng ahi–Judea pumpia, Galilee a pat Jerusalem geiya!” atiuve.But they kept insisting, “He stirs up the people all over Judea with His teaching. He began in Galilee and has come all the way here.”

6“Oh, Galilee gammi ham?” tin Pilate in ahin dong'e.When Pilate heard this, he asked if the man was a Galilean.

7ama hon ahi atipeh phat un, Pilate in Herod Antipas kom'a dingin asol tai, ajeh chu Galilee chu Herod vaipohna noi anahi, chule Herod jong chu Jerusalem a aumpet anahi khan ahi.And learning that Jesus was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself was in Jerusalem at that time.

8Herod in Jesu mu na dinga phat hoitah amujeh chun akitai lheh jengin ahi, ajeh chu ama chung chang thudol anajah a chule sot apat a thil kidang abol ho ana munom ten ahi.When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased. He had wanted to see Him for a long time, because he had heard about Him and was hoping to see Him perform a miracle.

9Aman Jesu chu thudoh tamtah adongin, ahivangin Jesun adonbut nom poi.Herod questioned Jesus at great length, but He gave no answer.

10Hiche lai chun thempu pipuiho leh houdan thuhil ho chua chun adingun ahehsetna thu u chu asam un ahi.Meanwhile, the chief priests and scribes stood there, vehemently accusing Him.

11Chuin Herod le asepai ten Jesu chu totnopnan aneiyun adai chavai pan tauve. Achainan, ama hon leng ponsil asilpeh un Pilate hengah ahin lesol tauve.And even Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked Him. Dressing Him in a fine robe, they sent Him back to Pilate.

12(Herod le Pilate, masanga kimelmah teni chu, hiche ni chun jol le gol ahung hilhon'e).That day Herod and Pilate became friends; before this time they had been enemies.

13Chuin Pilate in thempu pipuiho leh hou lamkai adang ho, mipi ho jaonan, akoukhom in,Then Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,

14chule athulhuh sem aphongdoh in ahi. “Nanghon hiche mipa hi kakom'a nahin puiyun, doudal natoh atonge tia ngohna naneiyu ahi. Keiman hiche thudol'a hin phatah in nangho mitmun kavelhan chule bolset neilou ahi kamudoh e.and said to them, “You brought me this man as one who was inciting the people to rebellion. I have examined Him here in your presence and found Him not guilty of your charges against Him.

15Herod in jong themmona amulou jeh a eiho kom'a ahin lesol ahi. Thina thei chan gotna pehna ding natoh hiche mipan abolpoi.Neither has Herod, for he sent Him back to us. As you can see, He has done nothing deserving of death.

16Hijeh chun keiman gimbolna peing ting, hin lhadoh tange,” ahinti.Therefore I will punish Him and release Him.”

17Ajeh chu kut sunga chu ama hon mikhat alhadoh jing'u ahi.Not in the BSB

18Chutah chun mihonpi lah a kon chun awgin sangtah ahung gingin, thakhat tah in ahin sam'un, “Ama hi thatdoh in, chule Barabbas chu nei lhadoh peh un!” atiuve.But they all cried out in unison: “Away with this man! Release Barabbas to us!”

19(Barabbas chu agam solkal douna natoh jeh le toltha jeh a songkul'a kikhum anahi.)(Barabbas had been imprisoned for an insurrection in the city, and for murder.)

20Pilate in amaho anelkal'in ahi, ajeh chu aman Jesu alhadoh nom jeh ahi.Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate addressed them again,

21Ahivangin ama hon asam sam jengun, “Thingpel'a khenbeh in! thingpel'a khenbeh in!” atiuve.but they kept shouting, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!”

22Athumvei channa din aman adongin, “Ipi bol'in em? Ipi themmona aneiyem? Keiman thina chan'a gotna pehna ding thu ima kamupoi. Hijeh chun hin vogim ingting hin lhadoh tange,” ati.A third time he said to them, “What evil has this man done? I have found in Him no offense worthy of death. So after I punish Him, I will release Him.”

23Ahivangin mihonpi chun awsang jep in ahasap cheh un, Jesu chu thingpel'a khetbeh ahina din athum'un, chule a-awgin u chun ajoujo tai.But they were insistent, demanding with loud voices for Jesus to be crucified. And their clamor prevailed.

24Hijeh chun Pilate in Jesu chu angeh dungjuiyun athi dingin atanlhah peh tai.So Pilate sentenced that their demand be met.

25ama hon athum dungjuiyun Barabbas, michohnoh le toltha jeh a songkul'a umpa, alhadoh peh in ahi. Ahin Jesu vang chu amaho khut ah anop nop alo diuvin apedoh tai.As they had requested, he released the one imprisoned for insurrection and murder, and he handed Jesus over to their will.

26Chutia Jesu ahin puidoh uchun, Simon kiti Cyrene gam mi khat thinglhang langa pat a ahung pettah anahi. Sepai ho chun aman un thingpel chu achungah akoiyun Jesu nunga chun apohsah tauve.As the soldiers led Him away, they seized Simon of Cyrene on his way in from the country, and they put the cross on him to carry behind Jesus.

27Mihonpi tamtah in anung ahinjuiyun, a-op chum'a kap nupiho jong ahiuve.A great number of people followed Him, including women who kept mourning and wailing for Him.

28Ahivangin Jesu amaho langah akiheiyin aseitai, “Jerusalem chanute, keiya dingin kap hih un, amavang nangho le nachateu dingin kap jouvin.But Jesus turned to them and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

29Ijeh inem itile ama hon hitia aseina diu nikho hunglhung ding ahi. 'Cha neilou numeiho, naovop khalou naobu, chule nao noichepsah khalou ho anunnom uve,' kiti ding ahi.Look, the days are coming when people will say, ‘Blessed are the barren women, the wombs that never bore, and breasts that never nursed!’

30Mihon mol ho jah a ‘Neilhuh khum'un’ tia athum dingu, lhang jah a ‘neikhu khum'un’ atidiu ahi.At that time ‘they will say to the mountains, “Fall on us!” and to the hills, “Cover us!”’

31Ajeh chu thingphung ahinlai'a bon hitia hi abol ule, iti da ding ham agot teng?” ati.For if men do these things while the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”

32Adang mini, anilhona miphalou, teni jong chu ama toh tha tha dingin ahin puidoh uve.Two others, who were criminals, were also led away to be executed with Jesus.

33Lugu mun atinau mun ahung lhun phat un, ama hon thingpel ah thingkil'in akilbeh un ahi. Chuleh miphalou teni jong chu akhetbeh tauve–khat ajet ah chule khat aveiyah.When they came to the place called The Skull, they crucified Him there, along with the criminals, one on His right and the other on His left.

34Jesun aseitai, “Hepa, ngaidam in, ajeh chu ipi abol'u ahepouve,” ati. Chule sepai hon aponsil chu vang asang'un achang ding akive lhauve.Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up His garments by casting lots.

35Mihonpi chun aveuvin chule alamkai hon ajontai'un. “Aman midang ho ahuhhingin” tin ama hon aseiyun, “Ama le ama kihuhhing tahta Pathen thaonu, Akilhengdoh pa chu ahi mong-mong leh,” atiuvin ahi.The people stood watching, and the rulers sneered at Him, saying, “He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is the Christ of God, the Chosen One.”

36Sepai hon jong adai chavaiyun, don ding juthuh apeuvin ahi.The soldiers also mocked Him and came up to offer Him sour wine.

37Ama ahin kou uvin, “Nangma Judah te lengpa nahileh, kihuhhing in!” atiuve.“If You are the King of the Jews,” they said, “save Yourself!”

38Achungah chun melchihna khat atah uvin, “Hiche hi Judah te lengpa ahi” tin asun uve.Above Him was posted an inscription: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

39Miphalou akikhetbehpi teni khatpa chun ahin jontaiyin, “Nang, Messiah nahi hilou ham?” Nahi vetsahnan nang le nang kihuhhing in lang chule keini jong neihuhdoh lhon tang'em, hitia na thohgim laihin! ati.One of the criminals who hung there heaped abuse on Him. “Are You not the Christ?” he said. “Save Yourself and us!”

40Ahivangin miphalou khatpa chun ahin phohsal in, “Pathen nagin lou ham athi dinga naum kisan'a?But the other one rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same judgment?

41Eini hi athi dinga lom ihi ithil bolkhel jeh a, ahin hiche pa hin imacha bolkhel aneipoi,” ati.We are punished justly, for we are receiving what our actions deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”

42Chuin aman aseitai, “Jesu, nei geldoh in na lenggam'a nahung teng,” ati.Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom!”

43Jesun adonbut in, “Tahbeh a ka seipeh nahi, tunia Paradise a iumkhom ding ahi,” ati.And Jesus said to him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”

44Hiche phat hi sunkim dontah ahin, chule nidan thum chan in gamsung pumpi muthim ahung jingin ahi.It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour.

45Nisa a kon vah achemang in, chule kinloitah in Hou-In muntheng'a pondal chu akimlai tah a akehlhasuh in ahi.The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn down the middle.

46Chutah chun Jesu ahung peng in, “Pa, nakhut ah kalhagao kapedoh e” ati. Chule chuche thucheng asei toh kilhon'in ahinna alhatai.Then Jesus called out in a loud voice, “Father, into Your hands I commit My Spirit.” And when He had said this, He breathed His last.

47Rome sepai jalamkaipa, kithana velhalea pang pan thilsoh umchan chu amun, Pathen chibai aboh in aseitai, “Hiche mipa vang michonpha ahi,” ati.When the centurion saw what had happened, he gave glory to God, saying, “Surely this was a righteous man.”

48Chuleh mihonpi akikhetbeh ve'a hung se-sen jong thilsoh umchan chu amu uvin, amaho lungkham tah in inlam ache tauve.And when all the people who had gathered for this spectacle saw what had happened, they returned home beating their breasts.

49Ahivangin Jesu jol le golte, Galilee gam'a pat a hinjui numeiho chengtoh, amaho chu gamla thimtah in adingun ahin galvet uve.But all those who knew Jesus, including the women who had followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance watching these things.

50Tun Joseph kiti mipha le chondih tah khat aum'e. Ama chu Judah te vaipoloi lah a khat ahi.Now there was a Council member named Joseph, a good and righteous man,

51Ahin aman houlamkai dang ho thulhuh sem le natoh chu ana noppeh lou ahi. Ama chu Judea gam'a Arimathea khoa kon ahi, chule Pathen Lenggam hung ding chu anga jing ahi.who had not consented to their decision or action. He was from the Judean town of Arimathea and was waiting for the kingdom of God.

52Ama Pilate kom'a achen Jesu long chu athum'in ahi.He went to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus.

53Chuin aman atahsa chu thingpel a pat in alalhan, tupat ponnem ajolsao thimtah khat in atom in, chule song kilai lhanthah khat ah alupsah tai.Then he took it down, wrapped it in a linen cloth, and placed it in a tomb cut into the rock, where no one had yet been laid.

54Hiche chu kigotni nilhangkai don a vaigei thimtah a kibol ahi, ajeh chu Cholngahni kipat ding kon cha ahitai.It was Preparation Day, and the Sabbath was beginning.

55Atahsa akilah mang phat chun, Galilee apat a hung numei ho chun ahin juiyun, atahsa kikoina lhan chu agamu uvin ahi.The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee followed, and they saw the tomb and how His body was placed.

56Chuin inlam acheuvin chule thil namtui le atahsa a nuding nuthei akisem uvin ahi. Ahin athilsem u ajo phat un Cholngahni anakipan tai, hijeh chun dan thun angeh dungjuijin akichol tauve.Then they returned to prepare spices and perfumes. And they rested on the Sabbath, according to the commandment.
