Mahte 7
1 Pamhnama ngthumkhyahnak üngka naw nami lät vaia khyanga lei käh nami mtai vai.
"Do not judge, so that you won't be judged.
2 Khyang nami mtainak am khyang naw ning jah mtai be lü, khyang nami mcäpnak am khyang naw ning jah mcäp pet be khai.
For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you.
3 Ivaia na mik üng cungbäng veki am hmuhei lü, na püia mik üngka mikbengca na hmuh petki ni?
And why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?
4 Ihawkba na mik üng cungbäng am hmuhei lü, na püi üng “Na mik ek ning lawh pe vang” na tiki ni?
Or how will you tell your brother, 'Let me remove the speck from your eye;' and look, the log is in your own eye?
5 Hypocrite aw, akcüka na mik üngka cungbäng loei maki lü, acunkäna na püia mik ek na lawh pet vaia angtea na hmuh khai.
You hypocrite. First remove the log out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother's eye.
6 Ui am angcimcaih käh nami pet vai, nghlat lü ning jah cui khaie. Pale Lunge vawk üng käh nami jah pet vai, ami kainaka thea ning jah nghlatsih u lü ning jah cui khaie ni.
"Do not give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, or they will trample them under their feet and turn and tear you to pieces.
7 Tä ua nami yah khai; sui ua nami hmuh khai; ksawh khawk ua, ning jah nghmawn pet khai ni.
"Ask, and it will be given to you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.
8 Au pi täki naw yahki, suiki naw hmuki, ksawh khawki üng nghmawn pet khai ni.
For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
9 Nangmi üng a ca naw muk tä se lung pe khai u veki ni?
Or who is there among you, who, if his son will ask him for bread, will give him a stone?
10 Nami ca naw nga tä se kphyu pe khai u veki ni?
Or if he will ask for a fish, who will give him a serpent?
11 Nangmi khyang ksee naw pi nami ca üng akdaw pet vai nami ksing üng, nami pa khana ka naw täki üng nangmia kthaka dawki pe khai aw?
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him.
12 Namimäta khana khyang naw a pawh vai nami ngjak hlüa mäiha, namimät naw pi khyanga khana nami pawh vai. Acun cun Mosia thum ja sahma he naw jah mtheh pängki he ni.
Therefore whatever you desire for people to do to you, so also you should do to them; for this is the Law and the Prophets.
13 Mkawt kdik üng lut ua, isetiüng ta mulaia cehnak lam cun ngbaü lü ceh pi jäkia kyase khyang khawkäna cehnak lam ni.
"Enter in by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter in by it.
14 Mkawt kdik cun khak lü, xünnaka lama kya se, cetkia khyang ngcekie.
How narrow is the gate, and difficult is the way that leads to life. Few are those who find it.
15 Pamhnama sahma mäiha nghmüneikie nami jah yeteinak vai, toa vun büng u lü, nami veia law kyawkie, ak'uma mhngea kyaki he.
"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves.
16 Acun he cun ami ngtheipai am nami jah ksing khai. Nghling thing capyita ngthei khawiki aw? Nghling thing üng fik ngthei khawiki aw?
By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?
17 Acuna mäiha thing kdaw naküt naw kthei kdaw ktheih na lü, thing kse naküt naw kthei ksea ngtheiki.
Even so, every good tree produces good fruit; but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit.
18 Thing kdaw cun ktheih ksea am ngthei, thing kse naw pi ktheih kdaw am kthei na khawi.
A good tree cannot produce evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit.
19 Aktheih am dawki thing naküt cun khyu u lü, mei üng ami xawtin khawi.
Every tree that does not grow good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire.
20 Acunakyase, sahma ksee cun ami kthei am nami jah ksing khai.
Therefore, by their fruits you will know them.
21 Bawipa, Bawipa ti lü na khüki naküt khankhaw pha khaie am ni, ka pa khana kaa hlüei pawhki va khankhaw pha khai.
Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
22 Ngthumkhyahnaka mhnüp üng, “Bawipa, Bawipa, na ngming üng Pamhnam ngthu pyen lü, na ngming üng khawyame jah ksät lü, müncanksee kami jah pawhki am niki aw? ti law khaie.
Many will tell me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, did not we prophesy in your name, in your name cast out demons, and in your name do many mighty works?'
23 Acunüng kei naw, “Nangmi am ning jah ksing khawi nawng, khyang ksee, ka vei üngka naw cit ua” ka ti khai.
And then I will tell them, 'I never knew you. Depart from me, you who practice lawlessness.'
24 Acunakyase, au pi ka pyen ngja lü ka pyena mäiha veki cun lunga khana im saki khyang kthem üng tängki ni.
"Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them, will be compared to a wise man, who built his house on a rock.
25 Khaw a law lü tui däm law sepi, khawkhi naw buh law lü pi, isüm am kyu. Isetiüng ta lunga khana saka kyase am kyu thei.
And the rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
26 Cunüngpi ka jah pyene jah ngja lü ka pyena mäiha am veki cun mdiha khana im sakia khyang nghmawng üng tängki ni.
And everyone who hears these words of mine, and does not do them will be like a foolish man, who built his house on the sand.
27 Khaw ngkyawi law lü, tui kdäm naw ceh khai, khawkhi naw buk law se mdiha khana im cun kyu lü pyüpye theiki ni.
And the rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it fell—and great was its fall."
28 Jesuh naw acukba a pyen käna khyangpäe naw a jah mtheimthang cun müncan na lawki he.
And it happened, when Jesus had finished saying these things, that the crowds were astonished at his teaching,
29 Isetiüng ta, Jesuh cun thum mthei hea mäih am ni, khyaihbahnak takia mäiha a jah mtheimthanga phäha kyaki.
for he taught them with authority, and not like their scribes.
