1After six days Jesus took with Him Peter, James, and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves.
1Ni tarukto oh pacoengah Jesu loe Piter, Jakob hoi amnawk Johan to kawk moe, nihcae to maesang ah dawh haih tahang,
2There He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.
2to naah anih loe nihcae hma ah krang amkhraih pae: anih ih mikhmai loe ni aengh baktiah aang, anih ih kahni loe ni aengh baktiah anglung.
3Suddenly Moses and Elijah appeared before them, talking with Jesus.
3Khenah, nihcae hma ah Mosi hoi Elijah to amtueng pae moe, anih hoiah lok apaeh hoi.
4Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If You wish, I will put up three shelters —one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
4Piter mah Jesu khaeah, Angraeng, aicae haeah oh han hoih: na koeh nahaeloe, hae ah kahni im thumto sah si; nang hanah maeto, Mosi hanah maeto, Elijah hanah maeto, tiah a naa.
5While Peter was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to Him!”
5To tiah anih lokthuih li naah, khenah, nihcae loe ka-aang tamai mah khuk hmoek: khenah tamai thung ih lok mah, Hae loe ka koeh moe, ka palung duek ih ka Capa ah oh, a lok to tahngai pae oh, tiah thuih.
6When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown in terror.
6A hnukbang kaminawk mah to lok to thaih o naah, paroeai zit o moe, lu takhum hoiah tabok o.
7Then Jesus came over and touched them. “Get up,” He said. “Do not be afraid.”
7Jesu angzoh moe nihcae to sui, Zii o hmah, angthawk o lai ah, tiah a naa.
8And when they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus.
8A khet o tahang naah, Jesu khue ai ah loe, mi doeh hnu o ai.
9As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus commanded them, “Do not tell anyone about this vision until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.”
9Mae nui hoi anghum o tathuk naah, Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Kami Capa duekhaih thung hoi angthawk let ai karoek to, na hnuk o ih hmuen hae mi khaeah doeh thui o hmah, tiah a naa.
10The disciples asked Him, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
10To naah a hnukbang kaminawk mah, Tikhoe ca tarik kaminawk mah loe Elijah angzo hmaloe tih, tiah thuih o loe? tiah a dueng o.
11Jesus replied, “Elijah does indeed come, and he will restore all things.
11Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Elijah to angzo hmaloe tangtang ueloe, hmuennawk to sak pakhrai boih tih.
12But I tell you that Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but have done to him whatever they wished. In the same way, the Son of Man will suffer at their hands.”
12Toe kang thuih o, Elijah loe angzoh boeh, nihcae mah anih to panoek o ai, nihcae loe anih nuiah koeh baktiah toksak o. To baktih toengah kami Capa doeh nihcae ban thungah patangkhang tih.
13Then the disciples understood that He was speaking to them about John the Baptist.
13Nihcae khaeah a thuih pae ih lok loe tuinuemhaih paekkung Johan kawng ni, tito a hnukbang kaminawk mah panoek o.
14When they came to the crowd, a man came up to Jesus and knelt before Him.
14Paroeai angpop kaminawk khaeah a caeh o naah, kami maeto anih khaeah angzoh moe, khok cangkrawn hoiah,
15“Lord, have mercy on my son,” he said. “He has seizures and is suffering terribly. He often falls into the fire or into the water.
15Angraeng, ka capa nuiah palungnathaih tawn raeh: anih loe amthu moe, patangkhang parai boeh: hmai hoi tui thungah doeh vaihi hoi vaihi amtimh, tiah a naa.
16I brought him to Your disciples, but they could not heal him.”
16Nang hnukbang kaminawk khaeah ka caeh haih, toe nihcae mah ngantui o sak thai ai, tiah a naa.
17“O unbelieving and perverse generation!” Jesus replied. “How long must I remain with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy here to Me.”
17Jesu mah, Aw tanghaih tawn ai kami hoi palung thah caanawk, nasetto maw kang oh haih han vop? Nasetto maw kang pauep haih han vop? Anih to haeah kai khaeah na hoi ah, tiah a naa.
18Then Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of the boy, and he was healed from that moment.
18Jesu mah taqawk to zoeh pae; to naah anih ih takoh thung hoiah taqawk to tacawt: to nathuem hoiah nawkta loe ngantui roep.
19Afterward the disciples came to Jesus privately and asked, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”
19To naah a hnukbang kaminawk Jesu khaeah tamquta hoi angzoh o moe, tipongah kaicae mah loe ka haek o thai ai loe? tiah a dueng o.
20“Because you have so little faith,” He answered. “For truly I tell you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”
20Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Tanghaih na tawn o ai pongah ni: loktang kang thuih o, antam mu tet to mah tanghaih na tawnh o nahaeloe, hae mae khaeah hae ahmuen hoiah ho ahmuen ah angthui ah, tiah na naa o nahaeloe, angthui tih; nangcae hanah angcoeng thai ai hmuen tidoeh om mak ai.

22When they gathered together in Galilee, Jesus told them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men.
22Nihcae Kalili prae ah oh o naah, Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Kami Capa loe minawk ban ah paek o tih:
23They will kill Him, and on the third day He will be raised to life.” And the disciples were deeply grieved.
23nihcae mah anih to hum o tih, anih loe ni thumto naah angthawk let tih, tiah a naa. To naah nihcae loe paroeai palungset o.
24After they had arrived in Capernaum, the collectors of the two-drachma tax came to Peter and asked, “Does your Teacher pay the two drachmas?”
24Nihcae Kapernuam vangpui ah angzoh o naah, tamut cong kaminawk Piter khaeah angzoh o moe, Nangcae patukkung loe tamut paek ai maw? tiah a dueng o.
25“Yes,” he answered. When Peter entered the house, Jesus preempted him. “What do you think, Simon?” He asked. “From whom do the kings of the earth collect customs and taxes: from their own sons, or from others?”
25Anih mah, a paek bae, tiah a naa. Anih imthungah akun naah Jesu mah, Simon, kawbangmaw na poek? Long nui siangpahrangnawk mah mi khaeah maw tamut a cong o? angmacae ih caanawk khaeah maw, to tih ai boeh loe minawk kalah khaeah? tiah a naa.
26“From others,” Peter answered. “Then the sons are exempt,” Jesus declared.
26Piter mah anih khaeah, Minawk kalah khaeah, tiah a thuih pae. Jesu mah anih khaeah, to tih nahaeloe a caanawk loe loih o takhae, tiah a naa.
27“But so that we may not offend them, go to the sea, cast a hook, and take the first fish you catch. When you open its mouth, you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for My tax and yours.”
27Toe nihcae palungphuisak han ai ah, tuipui ah caeh ah, cakoih to va ah loe, tathok hmaloe ih tanga to la ah; tanga pakha angh naah, phoisa maeto na hnu tih: to phoisa to la ah loe, nang hoi kai hanah tamut ah paek ah, tiah a naa.
