Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
World English Bible
1Toah amkhueng paroeai kaminawk loe angthawk o moe, anih to Pilat khaeah caeh o haih.
1The whole company of them rose up and brought him before 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.
2They began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man perverting the nation, forbidding paying taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is 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.
3Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered him, “So you say.”
4Pilat mah kalen koek qaima hoi rangpuinawk khaeah, Hae kami zaehaih ka hnu ai, tiah a naa.
4Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, “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 insisted, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.”
6Pilat mah Kalili, tih ih lok to thaih naah, anih loe Kalili kami maw, tiah a dueng.
6But when Pilate heard Galilee mentioned, 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.
7When he found out that he was in Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem during those days.
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.
8Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad, for he had wanted to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things about him. He hoped to see some miracle done by him.
9Anih mah pop parai ah lok to dueng; toe Jesu mah anih han tidoeh pathim pae ai.
9He questioned him with many words, but he gave no answers.
10Qaima hoi ca tarik kaminawk to ahmuen ah angdoet o moe, anih to zaehaih net o.
10The chief priests and the scribes stood, 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.
11Herod with his soldiers humiliated him and mocked him. Dressing him in luxurious clothing, 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.
12Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before that they were enemies with each other.
13Pilat loe kalen koek qaima, ukkungnawk hoi kaminawk to nawnto kawk moe, nihcae khaeah,
13Pilate 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 this man to me as one that perverts the people, and behold, having examined him before you, I found no basis for a charge against this man concerning those things of which you accuse 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 I sent you to him, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.
16To pongah anih to ka thuitaek moe, ka prawt han, tiah a naa.
16I will therefore chastise him and release him.”
17(To poih thungah anih mah kami maeto rangpuinawk khaeah prawt pae han angaih).
17Now he had to release one prisoner to them at the feast.
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 together, saying, “Away with this man! Release to us Barabbas!”—
19(Barabba loe vangpui thungah misa angthawk kami ah oh moe, kami hum pongah thongim ah pakhrak o).
19one who was thrown into prison for a certain revolt in the city, and for murder.
20Pilat mah Jesu to prawt han koeh pongah, nihcae khaeah lokthuih let.
20Then Pilate spoke to them again, wanting to release Jesus,
21Toe nihcae mah, Thinglam pong takhing ah, thinglam pong takhing ah, tiah hangh o.
21but they shouted, saying, “Crucify! 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.
22He said to them the third time, “Why? What evil has this man done? I have found no capital crime in him. I will therefore chastise him and 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 urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. Their voices and the voices of the chief priests prevailed.
24Nihcae mah hnik o ih baktih toengah Pilat mah paroi pae.
24Pilate decreed that what they asked for should be done.
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.
25He released him who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, for whom they asked, but he delivered Jesus up 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.
26When they led him away, they grabbed one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and laid the cross on him to carry it after Jesus.
27Paroeai kaminawk anih hnukah bang o, palungset hoiah kaqah nongpatanawk doeh anih hnukah bang o toeng.
27A great multitude of the people followed him, including women who also mourned and lamented 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, turning to them, said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, don’t 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.
29For behold, the days are coming in which they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the 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.
30Then they will begin to tell the mountains, ‘Fall on us!’ and tell 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 they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?”
32Kami kazae hnik doeh thinglam pong takhing hanah anih hoi nawnto caeh o haih.
32There were also others, two criminals, led with him to be put to death.
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 that is called “The Skull”, they crucified him there with the criminals, one on the right and the other on the 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.
34Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” Dividing his garments among them, they cast 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. The rulers with them also scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others. Let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his 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, coming to him and offering him vinegar,
37Judah Siangpahrang ah na oh nahaeloe, nangmah hoi nangmah to amhlong ah, tiah a naa o.
37and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!”
38HAE LOE JUDAHNAWK IH SIANGPAHRANG, tiah Grik ca, Latin ca, Hebru ca hoiah a lu nuiah tarik pae o.
38An inscription was also written over him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew: “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 was hanged insulted him, saying, “If you are the Christ, 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 answered, and rebuking him said, “Don’t you even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?
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.
41And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds, 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.
42He said to Jesus, “Lord, 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.
43Jesus said to him, “Assuredly 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 the whole 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 in two.
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.
46Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” Having 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 was done, he glorified God, saying, “Certainly 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.
48All the multitudes that came together to see this, when they saw the things that were done, returned home beating their chests.
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.
49All his acquaintances and the women who followed with 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:
50Behold, there was a man named Joseph, who was a member of the council, 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.
51(he had not consented to their counsel and deed), from Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who was also waiting for God’s Kingdom.
52Anih loe Pilat khaeah caeh moe, Jesu ih qok to hnik.
52This man went to Pilate, and asked for Jesus’ body.
53Qok to a lak moe, puu kahni hoiah ayaw pacoengah, mi doeh aphum vai ai ih, thlung hoiah thuk ih taprong thungah pasong.
53He took it down and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no one had ever been laid.
54To ni loe amprikcaihaih niah oh moe, Sabbath ni to anghnai boeh.
54It was the day of the Preparation, and the Sabbath was drawing near.
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 him out of Galilee followed after, and saw the tomb and how his body was laid.

56They returned and prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
