Luka 23
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Berean Standard Bible
1Toah amkhueng paroeai kaminawk loe angthawk o moe, anih to Pilat khaeah caeh o haih.
1Then the whole council rose and led Jesus away to Pilate.
2Nihcae mah anih to kasae net o, Hae kami mah kaminawk aling moe, Caesar khaeah tamut paek han ai ah lok a thuih, angmah hoi angmah to Kri, Siangpahrang ni, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa o.
2And 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.”
3Pilat mah anih to lokdueng, Nang loe Judahnawk ih Siangpahrang maw? tiah a naa. Anih mah, Na thuih ih baktiah ka oh, tiah a naa.
3So Pilate asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.
4Pilat mah kalen koek qaima hoi rangpuinawk khaeah, Hae kami zaehaih ka hnu ai, tiah a naa.
4Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”
5To naah nihcae mah tha hoi hangh o, Hae kami loe Kalili hoi kamtong hae ahmuen khoek to, Judah prae thung boih ah patukhaih sah kami, minawk ih palungthin pahruek kami ah oh, tiah a naa o.
5But 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.”
6Pilat mah Kalili, tih ih lok to thaih naah, anih loe Kalili kami maw, tiah a dueng.
6When Pilate heard this, he asked if the man was a Galilean.
7Akra ai ah Jesu loe Herod ukhaih thungah kaom kami ni, tito Pilat mah panoek naah, Anih to Herod khaeah patoeh, Herod loe to nathuem ah Jerusalem ah oh.
7And learning that Jesus was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself was in Jerusalem at that time.
8Herod mah Jesu to hnuk naah, paroeai oephaih to tawnh: anih khae hoi thaih ih paroeai hmuennawk oh pongah, anih hnuk han koehhaih loe sawk parai boeh; anih mah sak ih dawnrai hmuen to hnuk han a koeh.
8When 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.
9Anih mah pop parai ah lok to dueng; toe Jesu mah anih han tidoeh pathim pae ai.
9Herod questioned Jesus at great length, but He gave no answer.
10Qaima hoi ca tarik kaminawk to ahmuen ah angdoet o moe, anih to zaehaih net o.
10Meanwhile, the chief priests and scribes stood there, vehemently accusing Him.
11Herod hoi anih ih misatuh kaminawk mah Jesu to tiah doeh poek o ai, pahnui o thuih, anih hanah kahoih kahni to angkhuk o sak moe, Pilat khaeah patoeh o let.
11And even Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked Him. Dressing Him in a fine robe, they sent Him back to Pilate.
12To na ni roe ah Pilat hoi Herod loe ampui ah oh hoi: canghniah loe maeto hoi maeto misa ah ni oh hoi.
12That day Herod and Pilate became friends; before this time they had been enemies.
13Pilat loe kalen koek qaima, ukkungnawk hoi kaminawk to nawnto kawk moe, nihcae khaeah,
13Then Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,
14hae kami mah misa angthawk hanah kaminawk to pacuek, tiah na thuih o pongah kai khaeah nang hoih o: khenah, nangcae hma ah anih hae lok ka caek boeh, toe na net o ih zaehaih baktiah hae kami nuiah zaehaih tidoeh ka hnu ai.
14and 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 mah doeh a sakpazaehaih hnu ai: anih khaeah doeh kang patoeh o boeh, khenah, anih mah duek han kakrah sak ih zaehaih tidoeh om ai.
15Neither has Herod, for he sent Him back to us. As you can see, He has done nothing deserving of death.
16To pongah anih to ka thuitaek moe, ka prawt han, tiah a naa.
16Therefore I will punish Him and release Him.”
17(To poih thungah anih mah kami maeto rangpuinawk khaeah prawt pae han angaih).
no verse 17 in this text
18To naah nihcae boih mah, Hae kami hae hum ah loe, Barabba to kaicae khae prawt ah, tiah nawnto hang o:
18But they all cried out in unison: “Away with this man! Release Barabbas to us!”
19(Barabba loe vangpui thungah misa angthawk kami ah oh moe, kami hum pongah thongim ah pakhrak o).
19(Barabbas had been imprisoned for an insurrection in the city, and for murder.)
20Pilat mah Jesu to prawt han koeh pongah, nihcae khaeah lokthuih let.
20Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate addressed them again,
21Toe nihcae mah, Thinglam pong takhing ah, thinglam pong takhing ah, tiah hangh o.
21but they kept shouting, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!”
22Pilat mah nihcae khaeah vai thumto, Tipongah, hae kami mah tih zaehaih maw sak? Anih hum hanah zaehaih tidoeh ka hnu ai: to pongah anih to ka thuitaek moe, ka prawt han, tiah a naa o.
22A 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.”
23Toe anih to thinglam pong takhing ah, tiah kanung aep ah a hangh o. To naah rangpuinawk hoi kalen koek qaima ih lok mah pazawk.
23But they were insistent, demanding with loud voices for Jesus to be crucified. And their clamor prevailed.
24Nihcae mah hnik o ih baktih toengah Pilat mah paroi pae.
24So Pilate sentenced that their demand be met.
25Nihcae mah prawt han hnik o ih, misa angthawk moe, kami hum pongah, thongim ah pakhrak ih Barabba to nihcae khaeah a prawt pae; Jesu to angmacae koeh baktiah sak hanah nihcae khaeah a paek.
25As they had requested, he released the one imprisoned for insurrection and murder, and handed Jesus over to their will.
26Anih to loklam ah a acaeh o haih li naah, vangta bang hoiah angzo, Cyrene prae ah kaom, Simon to a naeh o moe, Jesu hnukah thinglam aput o sak.
26As the soldiers led Him away, they seized Simon of Cyrene on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him to carry behind Jesus.
27Paroeai kaminawk anih hnukah bang o, palungset hoiah kaqah nongpatanawk doeh anih hnukah bang o toeng.
27A great number of people followed Him, including women who kept mourning and wailing for Him.
28Jesu nihcae khaeah angqoi moe, Jerusalem canunawk, kai na qah o haih hmah, nangmacae hoi na caanawk to qah o haih ah.
28But Jesus turned to them and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
29Khenah, nihcae mah, Zokpom vai ai caa kak kaminawk hoi nawkta tahnu naesak vai ai nongpatanawk loe tahamhoih o, tiah thuih ih ninawk to pha tih.
29Look, the days are coming when people will say, ‘Blessed are the barren women, the wombs that never bore, and breasts that never nursed!’
30To naah nihcae mah, Maesangnawk khaeah, Kaicae hae tanim thui ah; maesomnawk khaeah, Kaicae hae taet ah, tiah naa o tih.
30At that time ‘they will say to the mountains, “Fall on us!” and to the hills, “Cover us!”’
31Nihcae mah kahing thing to hae tiah sah o nahaeloe, kangqo thing cae loe kawbangah maw sah o tih? tiah a naa.
31For if men do these things while the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”
32Kami kazae hnik doeh thinglam pong takhing hanah anih hoi nawnto caeh o haih.
32Two others, who were criminals, were also led away to be executed with Jesus.
33Kalvary, tiah kawk ih ahmuen to phak o naah loe, anih to thinglam pongah takhing o, kami zae hnik doeh bantang bangah maeto, banqoi bangah kalah maeto takhing o toeng.
33When 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.
34Jesu mah, Pa, nihcae to tahmen ah; nihcae loe a sak o ih hmuen to panoek o ai, tiah a naa. Taham khethaih phoisa to azuh o moe, anih ih kahni to amzet o.
34Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up His garments by casting lots.
35Kaminawk loe angdoet o moe, khet o. Ukkungnawk mah anih to pahnui o thuih, kalah kaminawk to a pahlong; Sithaw mah qoih ih, Kri ah om nahaeloe, angmah hoi angmah to amhlong nasoe, tiah a naa o.
35The 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.”
36Misatuh kaminawk doeh anih khaeah angzoh o, anih to pahnui o thuih moe, anih hanah kathaw tui to paek o,
36The soldiers also mocked Him and came up to offer Him sour wine.
37Judah Siangpahrang ah na oh nahaeloe, nangmah hoi nangmah to amhlong ah, tiah a naa o.
37“If You are the King of the Jews,” they said, “save Yourself!”
38HAE LOE JUDAHNAWK IH SIANGPAHRANG, tiah Grik ca, Latin ca, Hebru ca hoiah a lu nuiah tarik pae o.
38Above Him was posted an inscription: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
39Thinglam pong takhing ih kami zae maeto mah, Nang loe Kri ah na oh nahaeloe, nangmah hoi nangmah to amhlong ah loe, kaihnik doeh pahlong khae, tiah hang thuih.
39One of the criminals who hung there heaped abuse on Him. “Are You not the Christ?” he said. “Save Yourself and us!”
40Toe kalah kami zae maeto mah loe anih to zoeh, Sithaw to na zii ai maw, nang loe anih hoi kangvan ah na ai maw danpaekhaih to na tongh?
40But the other one rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same judgment?
41Aihnik loe katoeng lokcaekhaih ni a hak hoi; a sak hoi ih hmuen baktih toengah ni tangqum to a hnuk hoi: toe hae kami loe zaehaih tidoeh sah ai, tiah a naa.
41We are punished justly, for we are receiving what our actions deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”
42To pacoengah anih mah Jesu khaeah, Angraeng, siangpahrang ah na ukhaih prae ah phak naah kai na pahnet hmah, tiah a naa.
42Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom!”
43Jesu mah anih khaeah, Loktang kang thuih, Vaihniah kai hoi nawnto paradise ah na om tih, tiah a naa.
43And Jesus said to him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”
44Atue tarukto hoi kamtong takawtto karoek to long nui boih ah khoving.
44It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour.
45Ni aengh anghmat moe, tempul pakaa ih kahni to hnetto ah angsih.
45The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn down the middle.
46Jesu loe tha hoiah hangh moe, Pa, ka hinghaih Muithla na ban ah kang paek, tiah thuih: to tiah thuih pacoengah a hinghaih qui to apet.
46Then 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.
47Misatuh angraeng mah to tiah kaom hmuen to hnuk naah, Sithaw to pakoeh moe, Hae loe kami katoeng ni, tiah thuih.
47When the centurion saw what had happened, he gave glory to God, saying, “Surely this was a righteous man.”
48To ahmuen ah nawnto kaom kaminawk boih mah, to tiah kaom hmuennawk to hnuk o naah, angmacae ih saoek to atumh o moe, amlaem o.
48And when all the people who had gathered for this spectacle saw what had happened, they returned home beating their breasts.
49Anih panoek kaminawk boih hoi a hnukbang Kalili prae ih nongpatanawk loe, ahmuen kangthla ah angdoet o moe, to ah kaom hmuennawk to khet o.
49But all those who knew Jesus, including the women who had followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance watching these things.
50Khenah, Joseph, tiah ahmin kaom kami maeto oh, anih loe lok takroekkung maeto ah oh; anih loe kahoih kami, katoeng kami ah oh:
50Now there was a Council member named Joseph, a good and righteous man,
51(Nihcae lok takroekhaih hoi a sak o ih hmuennawk to anih mah naakrah haih ai:) anih loe Judahnawk ih vangpui, Arimathea ah kaom kami, Sithaw ukhaih prae zing kami ah oh.
51who had not consented to their decision or action. He was from the Judean town of Arimathea, and was waiting for the kingdom of God.
52Anih loe Pilat khaeah caeh moe, Jesu ih qok to hnik.
52He went to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus.
53Qok to a lak moe, puu kahni hoiah ayaw pacoengah, mi doeh aphum vai ai ih, thlung hoiah thuk ih taprong thungah pasong.
53Then 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.
54To ni loe amprikcaihaih niah oh moe, Sabbath ni to anghnai boeh.
54It was Preparation Day, and the Sabbath was beginning.
55Kalili prae hoiah Jesu hnukbang nongpatanawk loe, Joseph hnukah bang o moe, anih ih qok kawbangmaw pasong o, tito khet hanah, taprong ah caeh o.
55The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee followed, and they saw the tomb and how His body was placed.
56To pacoengah im ah amlaem o moe, hmuihoihtuinawk to a sak o: toe nihcae loe kaalok baktih toengah Sabbath niah loe anghak o.
56Then they returned to prepare spices and perfumes. And they rested on the Sabbath, according to the commandment.
