1Now the publicans and sinners drew near unto him to hear him.
1Tamut cong kaminawk hoi kazae kaminawk loe a lok tahngai hanah anih khaeah angzoh o.
2And the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying: This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.
2To naah Farasinawk hoi ca tarik kaminawk mah, Hae kami loe kami zaenawk to kawk moe, nihcae hoi nawnto buh a caak, tiah laisaep o thuih.
3And he spoke to them this parable, saying:
3To naah anih mah nihcae khaeah, hae patahhaih lok hae thuih pae,
4What man of you that hath an hundred sheep: and if he shall lose one of them, doth he not leave the ninety-nine in the desert, and go after that which was lost, until he find it?
4nangcae thung ih kami maeto mah tuu cumvaito tawnh, to thungah maeto anghmaa ving nahaeloe, qui takawt, takawtto tuunawk to praezaek ah caehtaak ueloe, kanghmaa maeto hnu ai karoek to pakrong mak ai maw?
5And when he hath found it, lay it upon his shoulders, rejoicing:
5A hnuk let naah loe, anghoehaih hoiah angmah ih palaeng nuiah a koeng.
6And coming home, call together his friends and neighbours, saying to them: Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost?
6Im ah a phak naah, ampuinawk hoi imtaeng kaminawk to nawnto a kawk moe, nihcae khaeah, Kanghmaa kaimah ih tuu to ka hnuk let boeh, anghoe o haih ah, tiah a naa.
7I say to you, that even so there shall be joy in heaven upon one sinner that doth penance, more than upon ninety-nine just who need not penance.
7Kang thuih o, to baktih toengah dawnpakhuem kangaih ai kami qui takawt, takawtto pongah loe, dawnpakhuem kami zae maeto nuiah van ah anghoe o kue tih.
8Or what woman having ten groats; if she lose one groat, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently until she find it?
8To tih ai boeh loe nongpata mah a tawnh ih phoisa dip hato thungah maeto tahmat ving nahaeloe, anih mah hmai paang ueloe, im to pahuih pacoengah, phoisa dip hnu ai karoek to kahoihah pakrong mak ai maw?
9And when she hath found it, call together her friends and neighbours, saying: Rejoice with me, because I have found the groat which I had lost.
9Anih mah phoisa to hnuk naah, angmah ih ampuinawk hoi imtaeng kaminawk to nawnto kawk moe, ka tahmat ih phoisa to ka hnuk boeh, anghoe o haih ah, tiah a naa.
10So I say to you, there shall be joy before the angels of God upon one sinner doing penance.
10To baktih toengah, Kang thuih o, Sithaw ih van kaminawk hmaa ah dawnpakhuem kazae kami maeto nuiah anghoehaih to oh, tiah a naa.
11And he said: A certain man had two sons:
11Anih mah, Kami maeto mah capa hnetto tawnh:
12And the younger of them said to his father: Father, give me the portion of substance that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his substance.
12capa kanawk mah ampa khaeah, Pa, ka toep han koi qawk to na paek ah, tiah a naa. To pongah ampa mah nihnik hanah qawk to pazet pae.
13And not many days after, the younger son, gathering all together, went abroad into a far country: and there wasted his substance, living riotously.
13Akra ai ah a capa kanawk loe hmuennawk to lak boih moe, prae kangthla ah caeh; to prae ah a tawnh ih hmuennawk to kanawm acaeng haih boih.
14And after he had spent all, there came a mighty famine in that country; and he began to be in want.
14A tawnh ih hmuennawk to patoh boih pacoengah loe, to prae ah kanung parai takang to thoh; to naah anih loe amtanghaih mah kae.
15And he went and cleaved to one of the citizens of that country. And he sent him into his farm to feed swine.
15Anih loe toksak hanah to ih prae kami maeto khaeah caeh; to kami mah anih to ok pacah hanah angmah ih lawk ah patoeh.
16And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks the swine did eat; and no man gave unto him.
16Anih loe zok amthlam loiah ok mah caak ih canghum mataeng doeh caak han a khit: toe mi mah doeh buh to paek o ai.
17And returning to himself, he said: How many hired servants in my father’s house abound with bread, and I here perish with hunger?
17To naah anih mah, Kam pa mah patoeh hanah pacae ih tamnanawk mah mataeng doeh nae laek caa laek ai ah caaknaek a tawnh o, kai loe zok kamthlam ah ka paqam tom boeh!
18I will arise, and will go to my father, and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee:
18Kang thawk moe, kam pa khaeah ka caeh han, anih khaeah, Pa, van hoi na hmaa ah ka zae boeh,
19I am not worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
19na capa, tiah kawk han doeh kam cuk ai boeh: patoeh han na thlai ih tamna maeto baktiah na omsak ah, tiah ka naa han, tiah a poek.
20And rising up he came to his father. And when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and running to him fell upon his neck, and kissed him.
20Anih loe angthawk moe, ampa khaeah caeh. Toe anih loklam kangthla ah oh naah, ampa mah anih to hnuk, to naah tahmenhaih tawnh pongah cawnh moe, anih to takop pacoengah, a mok.
21And the son said to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, I am not now worthy to be called thy son.
21Capa mah ampa khaeah, Pa, van hoi na mikhnuk ah ka zae boeh, na capa ah kawk han doeh kam cuk ai boeh, tiah a naa.
22And the father said to his servants: Bring forth quickly the first robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:
22Toe ampa mah a tamnanawk khaeah, Kahoih koek khukbuen to sin oh loe, anih to angkhuk o sak ah; a banpazung ah bantuek to abuen o sak ah loe, a khok ah khokpanai bum to abuen o sak ah:
23And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it, and let us eat and make merry:
23kathawk maitaw to haeah hoi oh loe, bop oh; caa o si loe, nawm o si:
24Because this my son was dead, and is come to life again: was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
24hae ka capa loe duek boeh, toe a hing let; anih loe anghmat boeh, toe hnuk let boeh, tiah a naa. Nihcae mah nawmhaih poih to sak o.
25Now his elder son was in the field, and when he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing:
25To naah a capa kacoeh loe lawk ah oh: anih loe angzoh, im phak tom naah loe, katoeng tamoi tuen hoiah hnawhhaih loknawk to a thaih.
26And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
26Anih mah a tamna maeto kawk moe, haeah timaw sak o? tiah dueng.
27And he said to him: Thy brother is come, and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe.
27Tamna mah anih khaeah, Nam nawk amlaem let boeh, ngantui ta hoi ngancuem ah phak let boeh pongah, nam pa mah kathawk maitaw to boh pae, tiah a naa.
28And he was angry, and would not go in. His father therefore coming out began to entreat him.
28A capa kacoeh loe palungphui pongah, imthung ah akun ai: to pongah ampa mah caeh moe, anih to pathloep.
29And he answering, said to his father: Behold, for so many years do I serve thee, and I have never transgressed thy commandment, and yet thou hast never given me a kid to make merry with my friends:
29Anih mah ampa khaeah, Khenah, saning hae zetto thung na tok kang sak pae, natuek naah doeh na thuih ih lok to ka aek vai ai to mah, kam puinawk hoi kanawm poihsak hanah maeh caa maeto mataeng doeh nang paek ai:
30But as soon as this thy son is come, who hath devoured his substance with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
30toe tangzat zaw kami hoiah nang ih hmuenmaenawk pasaeng boih, hae na capa angzoh naah loe, kathawk maitaw to na boh pae, tiah a naa.
31But he said to him: Son, thou art always with me, and all I have is thine.
31To naah ampa mah anih khaeah, Ka capa, nang loe kai khaeah na oh poe, ka tawnh ih hmuenmaenawk boih loe nang ih ni.
32But it was fit that we should make merry and be glad, for this thy brother was dead and is come to life again; he was lost, and is found.
32Hae nam nawk loe duek boeh, toe a hing let; anih loe anghmat boeh, toe hnuk let boeh pongah, oephaih poih a sak o han oh, tiah a naa.
