Luke 4
1 As Jesus left the Jordan [River valley], the Holy Spirit was completely controlling him.
Chuin Yeshua, Lhagao Theng dimset pumin, Jordan vadunga kon in akile tan ahi. Ama chu gamthip'a din Lhagao puidoh in aumin,
2 For 40 days the Spirit led him around in the desolate area. During that time Jesus was being tempted by the devil {the devil was tempting him}, and Jesus did not eat anything. When that time ended, he was [very] hungry.
hichea chun diabol lhep patep'in ni somli sung aume. Yeshuan hiche phatsungse chun ima anepon chule gilkel lheh jengah ahitai.
3 Then the devil said to Jesus, “Because you [claim that you] ([have a relationship with] God as a son [has with his father] [MET]/are the man who is both God and man), [prove it by] telling these stones to become bread [so that you can eat them]!”
Chuin diabol chun ahengah ahinseiyin, “Nangma Pathen chapa nahile hiche songhi changlhah pheng akiso nadin seiyin,” ati.
4 Jesus replied, “[No, I will not change stones into bread, because it is written] {[Moses] wrote} [in the Scriptures] that [eating] food sustains people physically, but it does not [sustain them spiritually. They also need food for their spirits].”
Ahin Yeshuan aseipeh in, “Ahipoi! Pathen Lekhabun mihem changlhah bouseh'a hinglou ding ahi” ati.
5 Then the devil took him on top of [a high mountain] and showed him in an instant all the nations in the world.
Chuin diabol chun apuitouvin, phat chomkhat kah sung in vannoiya lenggam ho avetsah soh keiyin ahi.
6 Then he said to [Jesus], “I will give you the authority [to rule] all these areas and will make you famous. [I can do this] because [God] has permitted me [to control these areas], and I can allow anyone I desire to rule them!
“Hiche lenggam ho loupina le achunguva thuneina nangma kapeh ding nahi,” tin diabol chun aseiyin, “Ajehchu aboncha keiya ahin kapeh nom nom kapeh thei ahi.
7 So if you worship me, I will [let] you [rule] them all!”
Aboncha nangma kapeh ding nahi nangman keima nei hou leh,” tin aseitai.
8 But Jesus replied, “[No, I] will not [worship you, because] it is written {[the Psalmist] wrote} [in the Scriptures], ‘It is the Lord, your God, whom you must worship, and you must serve only him!’”
Yeshuan adonbut in, “Pathen Lekhabun hitin aseiye, ‘Nangman Pakai na Pathen bouseh nahou ding, ama kin jeng bou nabol ding ahi’” atipeh tai.
9 Then the devil took [Jesus] to Jerusalem. He set him on the highest part of the Temple and said to him, “Because you [claim that you] ([have a relationship with God as a son has with his father] [MET]/are the man who is both God and man), [prove it by] jumping down from here.
Chuin diabol chun Jerusalem houin tingvum ah apuiyin chule aseitai, “Pathen Chapa nahile chomlhan!
10 [You will not be hurt], because it is written {the [Psalmist] wrote} [in the Scriptures], ‘God will command his angels to protect you [(sg)].
Ajehchu Pathen Lekhabun hitin aseiye, Aman avantilte navengtup ding le nahoidam dingin thupeh hin neiyin te.
11 They will lift you up with their hands [when you are falling], so that [you will not get hurt]. You will not [even] strike your foot on a stone.’”
Chule amahon akhut uvin natuh intin, chutia chu nangman nakengpah jengjong song chunga naki suhkhah lou ding ahi,” ati.
12 But Jesus replied, “[No, I] will not [do that, because] it is written {[Moses] wrote} [in the Scriptures]: ‘Do not try to test the Lord your God [to see if he will prevent something bad from happening to you when you do something foolish]’.”
Yeshuan adonbut in, “Pathen Lekhabun hitin jong aseikit'e, Nangman Pakai na Pathen napatep lou ding ahi” ati.
13 Then, after the devil had finished trying to tempt [Jesus] in many ways, he left him. He wanted to try to tempt him later at an appropriate time.
Diabol chun Yeshua alhep patep jou phat in, phat gomkom umkit kah a din adalhatai.
14 As the Spirit empowered him, Jesus returned to Galilee [district. People] throughout all that region heard about what he [was doing].
Chuin Yeshua Galilee langah Lhagao Theng thahatna dimset pumin akiletai. Ama chungchang thulhut ho agamkai pumpi ah gangtah'in akithejal soh tai.
15 He taught [people] in their (synagogues/meeting places). [As a result], he was praised by everyone {everyone praised him}.
Akikhopnau in tin'ah thu ahil jin mijousen apahcha lheh'e.
16 Then [Jesus] went to Nazareth, [the town] where he grew up. (On the Sabbath/On the Jewish rest day) he went (to the synagogue/to the Jewish meeting place), as he usually did. He stood up [to indicate that he wanted] to read [Scriptures] to them.
Ama Narareth kho, ahung seilet na khoa ahung chun, abolngai jing bangin Sabbath nin akikhopnau in'ah alut in Pathen Lekhabu sim dingin adingdoh in ahi.
17 A scroll containing [the words] that the prophet Isaiah [had written] was given to him {[Someone] gave to him a scroll containing [the words] that the prophet Isaiah [had written]}. He opened the scroll and found the place from which he [wanted to] read. [He read these words]:
Isaiah themgao lekhajol chu apeuvin ahi. Aman lekhajol chu alhamlhan hitia kijihna mun chu amudoh tai:
18 The Spirit (of the Lord/of God) is upon me. He has appointed [MTY] me to declare God’s good news to the poor. He has sent me [here] to proclaim that God will deliver those whom [Satan] has captured, and he will [enable me to] enable those who are blind to see. He will enable me to free people who have been oppressed {whom [others] have oppressed}.
“Pakai Lhagao kachungah aume, ajehchu mivaicha ho dinga kipana thupha podingin thao einui, Aman sohchang ho akilhadoh diu thu phongjal din eisol'e—mitchon kho amuding, Suhnem a umho kijalen sah ding ahiuve.
19 And he sent me to declare that now is the time when (the Lord/God) will [act] favorably [toward people].
Chuleh Pakai khotona phat ahunglhung tai,” kiti lai chu asimdoh tai.
20 Then he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant, and sat down [to teach the people]. Everyone in the synagogue was looking intently [MTY] at him.
Lekhajol chu anungjel in, lhachale pa khut'ah anungpeh in, atoutai. Kikhopna in'a mijousen ama chu mit-lhalouvin aveuvin,
21 He said to them, “Today as you have been hearing [MTY] [me speak], [I am beginning] to fulfill this Scripture passage.”
chuin aman amaho jah'a thu aseipan tai. “Pathen Lekhabua kisun tua najah'u chu tuni tah hin aguilhung tai!” ati.
22 [At first] everyone there spoke well about him, and they were amazed at the charming words that he spoke. [But then some of] them said, “(He is [only] Joseph’s son!/Isn’t he [only] Joseph’s son?) [RHQ] [So] ([it is useless for us(exc) to listen to what he says!/why should we(exc) listen to what he says]?) [RHQ]”
Mijousen aseiphalheh jengun chule akamsunga kona aphondoh lungsetna thuho chu kidang asauvin ahi. “Hiche hi iti ham?” tin amahon adongun, “Hiche hi Joseph chapa hilou ham?” atiuve.
23 He said to them, “Surely [some of] you will quote to me the proverb that says, ‘Doctor, heal yourself!’ [What you will mean is], ‘People told us that you did miracles in Capernaum [town, but we(exc) do not know if those reports are true. So] do miracles here in your own hometown, too!’”
Chuin aman aseiyin, “Nanghon lung opkai loubeh'a hiche thuchih hi nei seikhum teidiu ahi: Louthem, nangma kisudam in–aledohna, ‘Capernaum a nabol tobang thil kidang ho chu hilai nakhomun'a jong bol'in’” tiuvin nate.
24 Then he said, “It is certainly true that [people] do not accept [the message of] a prophet when he speaks in his hometown, [just like you(pl) are not accepting my message now].
Ahivanga thutah chu kaseipeh nahiuve, themgao koima ama gamsungah min apom ngaipoi.
25 But think about this: There were many widows in Israel during the time when [the prophet] Elijah [lived. During that time], because of there being no rain [MTY] for three years and six months, there was a great famine throughout the country.
“Tahbeh in Elijah phat laiyin Israel gamsungah ngaichat khohtah nei meithai tamtah anaume, vankot kum thumle akeh akikha'a gamsunga kel nasatah analhun chun.
26 But [God] did not send Elijah to [help] any of those [Jewish] widows. [God sent him] to Zarepath [town] near Sidon [city], to [help] a [non-Jewish] widow.
Ahivangin Elijah chu koima komah ana kisol poi. Gamchom mi kom joh'a sol anahi–Sidon gam'a Zarephath khoa meithai nu kom.
27 There were also many [Jewish] lepers in Israel during the time when the prophet Elisha [lived]. But [Elisha] did not heal any of them. He healed only Naaman, a [non-Jewish] man from Syria.”
Chule themgao Elisha phat laiyin jong Israel gamsungah miphah tampi ana um'in, ahivangin Syria mi Naaman bouseh suhdamin anaume,” ati.
28 When all the people in the synagogue heard him say that, they were very angry, [because they realized that he was inferring that he similarly would help non-Jewish people instead of helping Jews] (OR, [that they also were not worthy of receiving God’s help]).
Hiche thu ajah phat un, kikhopna in'a umho chu alunghang tauvin ahi.
29 So they all got up and shoved him out of the town. They took him to the top of the hill outside their town in order to throw him off the cliff [and kill him].
Achomdoh un, aman'un akhochen nau kol mong lama chun apui tauve. Hiche kol'a chu sotlhah ding atiu ahi,
30 But he [simply] walked through their midst and went away.
ahivangin akikah lah uva akihehdoh in akiva mang tai.
31 [One day] Jesus went [with his disciples] down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee [district]. On the next (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest) (OR, Each (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest)), he taught the people ([in the synagogue/in the Jewish meeting place]).
Chuin Yeshua Capernaum kiti Galilee gam kho khat'ah achen, chukom mun'a chun choldo nikho seh le akikhopnau in'a chun thu ahil ji'e.
32 They were continually amazed at what he was teaching, because [he spoke] ([with authority/as people speak who have] the right to command others what to do).
Hikom'a jong chun mihon athuhil chu kidang asalheh'un ahi, ajeh chu aman thuneitah'a aseijeh ahi.
33 [That day], (OR, On one of those Jewish days of rest, ) there was a man in the synagogue who was controlled by an evil spirit. That man shouted very loudly,
Khatvei akikhopnau in'a aumpet in, thilhavop khat–lhagao boh'in avop khat–Yeshua henga chun ahung pengjah jengin,
34 “Hey! Jesus, from Nazareth! [We(exc) evil spirits] have nothing in common with you, so ([do not interfere with us now!/why should you interfere with us now]?) [RHQ] (Do not destroy us [now!]/Have you come to destroy us [now]?) [RHQ] I know who you are. You are the Holy One [who has come] from God!”
“Che mangin! Ipijeh'a kalah'uva hung kikumlut nahim, Nazereth Yeshua? Keiho sumang dinga hung'ah nahim? Keiman nangma koi nahi kahenai–Pathen Mithengpa!” atin ahi.
35 Jesus rebuked [the evil spirit], saying, “Be quiet! And come out [of the man]!” The demon threw the man down on the ground in the midst of the people. But without harming the man, the demon left him.
Yeshuan athusei alatan in, “Thip'in! hiche mipa'a kon chun hung potdoh'in,” tin thupeh aneitan ahi. Chutah chun thilha chun mipa chu lhonglaiyah ahin seplhun, mihonpin avetjing laichun; chuin ama'a kon chun ima bolsebe talouvin ahung potdoh tan ahi.
36 The people were all amazed. They said to each other, “(What he says to the demons [has great power!/] [kind of] teaching is this?) [RHQ] He speaks to them like he knows that they must obey him, and as a result they leave people!”
Kidang san mipi ho chun aphongdoh un, “Ipi thuneina le thilboltheina hiche mipa hin anei hitam! Lhagao boh jeng jong athun anungin, athupeh'a kon in ajam uve!” atiuvin ahi.
37 The people were telling everyone in [every village] in the surrounding region what Jesus [had done].
Chuche gamkai pumpi a chun Yeshua thu chu khotin'ah akithang tan ahi.
38 Jesus [and his disciples] left (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place) and entered Simon’s house. Simon’s mother-in-law was sick and had a high fever. So [others in Simon’s family] (OR, [the disciples]) asked Jesus to [heal] her.
Chuche nikhoa akikhopnau in adalhah jouvin, Yeshua Simon in'ah achen, hikom'a chun Simon nupanu khosihpi jeh'a nasatah a dammo agatoh khan ahi. “Lungset'in sudam teiyin,” tin mijousen athum tauve.
39 So he bent over her and commanded the fever to leave her. At once she became well! She got up and served them [some food].
A-jalkhun komah adingin, akhosih chu aphoh thip tan ahileh akhosih chun amanu adalhatai. Chuin amanu athoudoh pai ngallin amaho ding anneh sem in apangtai.
40 When the sun was setting [that day, and the restriction about not traveling] (on [the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]) [was ended], many people [HYP] whose [friends or relatives] were sick or who had various diseases brought them to Jesus. He put his hands on them and healed [all of] them.
Nisa alhum toh lhon'in, chuche nilhah chun, khosung pumpia a-insungmi damlou neiho sen Yeshua hengah ahin puiyun ahi. Itobang natna hijong leh akhut'in atohkhah chan chu suhdamin aum tauve.
41 He also was [expelling demons] from many people. As the demons left those people, they shouted to Jesus, “You are (the Son of God/the one who is God and man)!” But he rebuked those demons and would not allow them to tell [people about him], because they knew that he was the Messiah, and [for various reasons he did not want everyone to know that yet].
Mi tamtah chu thilhavop ahiuvin; chule thilha ho chu athupeh'a kon in ahung potdoh'un, apengjah un, “Nangma Pathen Chapa nahi,” atiuvin ahi. Ahivangin ama Messiah ahi ahetjeh'u chun, aman amaho chu aphohthip in thu aseidoh sah tapoi.
42 [Early] the next morning [Jesus] left that house and went to an uninhabited place [to pray]. Many people searched for him, and when they found him they kept urging him not to leave them.
Ajing jingkah matah in Yeshua munthip lah khat ah achedoh tan ahi. Mihonpi chun amachu muntin aholle un, achaina kheh a amu phat uvin, aman amaho adalhah nalou diuvin atao tauve.
43 But he said to them, “I must tell [people] in other towns also the good message about how God wants to rule [MET] their lives, because that is what I was sent {[God] sent me} to do.”
Ahivangin aman adonbut in, “Keiman Pathen Lenggam Kipana Thuphahi khodang'a jong kaseiphong ding ahi, ajeh chu hiche dinga chu eikisol ahi,” ati.
44 So he kept preaching in (the synagogues/Jewish worship places) [in various towns] in Judea [province].
Chuti chun akholjin abanjop'in, Judea gam pumpia akikhopnau in tin'ah thu ahillhang len ahi.
