Matthai 12
1 Te vaeng tue kah Sabbath ah Jesuh tah lohma longah cet. A hnukbang rhoek tah a bungpong uh tih cangvuei a yun uh tih koe a kueh a uh.
At that time Jeshu was walking on the sabbath among the grain; and his disciples hungered, and began to pluck the ears and to eat.
2 Tedae Pharisee rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah Jesuh te, “Sabbath ah saii ham a paek pawt te na hnukbang rhoek loh a saii uh ke,” a ti nah.
But when the Pharishee saw them, they say to him, Look, thy disciples do something which is not lawful to be done on the sabbath.
3 Tedae Jesuh loh, “David neh a taengkah rhoek loh a bung a pong vaengah balae a saii, na tae uh moenih a?
But he said to them, Have you not read what David did when he hungered, and they who were with him?
4 Pathen im khuila kun tih a hmai kah buh a caak te ta. Te te anih kah a caak tueng la a om moenih, khosoih rhoek bueng pawt atah a taengkah rhoek ham khaw a om moenih.
how he went to the house of Aloha, and the bread of the table of the Lord did he eat, -that which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for them who were with him, but for the priests only?
5 Sabbath ah bawkim kah khosoih rhoek loh Sabbath te a poeih dae ommongsitoe la a om uh te olkhueng khuiah na tae uh moenih a?
Or have you not read in the law that the priests in the temple profane the sabbath in it, and are without blame?
6 Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui, bawkim lakah aka tanglue ngai tah he ah om ta.
But I say to you, that (one) greater than the temple is here.
7 Tedae metla a om khaw na ming uh koinih, rhennah ni ka ngaih hmueih moenih,’ a ti dongah ommongsitoe te na boe sak uh pawt sue.
Moreover, if you knew what that (meaneth), " I desire mercy and not a sacrifice," you would not have condemned them who are not faulty.
8 Hlang capa tah Sabbath boeipa la om,” a ti.
For the Lord of the sabbath is the Son of man.
9 Te lamloh thoeih tih amamih kah tunim la pawk.
AND Jeshu passed thence, and came into their synagogue.
10 Te vaengah kut khaem hlang pakhat khoem om. Te dongah anih a paelnaeh ham te a dawt uh tih, “Sabbath ah hoeih sak ham tueng a?” a ti nah.
And a certain man was there whose hand was withered. And they questioned him, saying, Is it lawful on the sabbath to heal? that they might accuse him.
11 Tedae amih te, “Nangmih khuikah tu pakhat mai khaw aka khueh hlang om a te? Te te Sabbath ah rhom khuila cungku koinih lo pawt vetih doek mahpawt a?
But he said to them, What man is there among you that hath one sheep, (who), if it fall into a pit on the sabbath-day, doth not take and lift it up?
12 Hlang he tu lakah muep tanglue ta. Te dongah Sabbath ah a then saii he tueng ta,” a ti nah.
How much more precious is a child of man than a sheep! Wherefore it is lawful on the sabbath-day to do that which is good.
13 Te phoeiah tekah hlang te, “Na kut te yueng lah,” a ti nah tih koe a yueng. Te vaengah khat ben kah bangla a then la a hoeih pah.
Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand! and he stretched forth his hand, and it was restored like the other its fellow.
14 Tedae Pharisee rhoek tah cet uh tih anih te poci sak hamla dawtletnah a khueh uh.
And the Pharishee went forth and took counsel against him, how they might destroy him.
15 Jesuh loh a ming vaengah te lamloh khoe uh. Te vaengah anih te hlangping loh muep a vai. Te dongah amih te boeih a hoeih sak.
But Jeshu knew, and passed from thence; and great crowds went after him, and he healed them all.
16 Tedae amah te mingpha la saii pawt ham amih te a uen.
And he forbad that they should make him known.
17 Te daengah ni tonghma Isaiah loh a thui tih,
That what was spoken by the prophet Eshaia might be fulfilled, who said,
18 Ka sal he ne, anih ni ka coelh. Anih soah ka thintlo ka hinglu loh a lungtlun. A pum dongah ka mueihla ka khueh vetih, namtom taengah tiktamnah a thui ni.
Behold my servant, in whom is my pleasure: My beloved, in whom my soul delighteth. My Spirit will I put upon him, And judgment to the peoples shall he preach.
19 Anih long tah oelhtaih mahpawh, hohaem mahpawh. A ol te toltung ah pakhat long khaw ya mahpawh.
He shall not contend nor cry, And no man shall hear his voice in the street.
20 Tiktamnah te voelphoengnah la a khuen hlan atah capu aka paep te khaem pawt vetih thut aka nap khaw thih mahpawh.
A bruised reed he will not break, And a flickering lamp he will not extinguish, Until he bring forth judgment unto victory.
21 A ming te khaw namtom rhoek loh a ngaiuep ni,” a ti te a soep eh.
And in his name shall the gentiles hope.
22 Te phoeiah rhaithae a kaem olmueh mikdael te a taengla a khuen uh tih anih te a hoeih sak. Te daengah olmueh te cal thai tih kho a hmuh thai.
THEN they brought to him a certain demoniac who was dumb and blind; and he healed him, so that the dumb and blind could speak and see.
23 Te vaengah hlangping khaw boeih limlum uh tih, “Anih he David capa la om mai khaming,” a ti uh.
And all the multitude were amazed, and said, Is not this the Son of David?
24 Tedae Pharisee rhoek loh a yaak uh vaengah, “Anih tah rhaithae rhoek kah boei Belzebul nen pawt koinih rhaithae he haek mahpawh,” a ti uh.
But the Pharishee, when they heard, said, This (man) doth not cast forth demons unless by Beelzebub, the prince of the devils.
25 Amih kah poeknah te a hmuh vaengah, “Amamih aka paekboe ram tah boeih poci tih, amamih aka paekboe khopuei neh im boeih tah cak mahpawh.
But Jeshu knew their reasonings, and said to them, Every kingdom that is divided against itself is destroyed; and every city which is divided against itself shall not stand.
26 Satan loh Satan te haek koinih amah neh amamih paekboe uh ni ta. Te vaengah a ram loh metlam a pai eh?
And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then standeth his kingdom?
27 Kai loh Beezebul rhangneh rhaithae ka haek koinih, na ca rhoek tah u rhangnen lae a haek uh. He dongah amih tah nangmih kah laitloekkung la om uh ni.
And if I by Beelzebub cast forth demons, your sons, by whom do they cast them forth? On this account they shall be your judges.
28 Tedae Pathen Mueihla rhangneh kai loh rhaithae ka haek atah nangmih taengah Pathen kah ram ha pai coeng dongah ni.
But if I by the Spirit of Aloha cast forth demons, the kingdom of Aloha hath come nigh upon you.
29 Aka tlung te lamhma la a pin pawt atah metlam lae aka tlung kah im khuila a kun vetih hnopai te a poelyoe pah thai eh? a pin phoei daengah ni im te a muk eh.
Or, how can one enter the strong one's house, and spoil his goods, unless he first bind the strong one? and then can he spoil his house.
30 Kai taengah aka om pawt tah kai neh hlihloeh la om tih, kai taengah aka cut pawt loh a thaek.
He who is not with me is against me; and he who gathereth not with me, in scattering scattereth.
31 He dongah nangmih taengah kan thui, tholhnah neh soehsalnah cungkuem dongah hlang he dongah hlah pah ni, tedae, Mueihla ben kah soehsalnah tah tholh hlah mahpawh.
Wherefore, this I say to you: That all sins and blasphemies shall be forgiven unto the sons of men; but the blasphemy which is against the Spirit shall not be forgiven to the sons of men.
32 Hlang capa te ol aka tha thil te khaw dongah hlah pueng ni. Tedae Mueihla Cim te aka cal thil te tah tahae tue neh aka lo ham dongah khaw anih te tholh hlah pah mahpawh. (aiōn g165)
And every one who shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him; but every one who against the Spirit of Holiness shall speak, it shall not be forgiven to him, neither in this world nor in the world to come. (aiōn g165)
33 Thing then loh a thaih a then sak tih thing thae loh a thaih a thae sak. Te dongah thing he a thaih loh a mingpha sak.
Or make the tree good, and the fruits (will be) good; or make the tree evil, and the fruits (will be) evil: for by the fruits the tree is known.
34 Rhulthae rhoek kah casak rhoek, a thae la na om uh lalah metlamlae a then te na thui uh thai eh. Thinko kah a baecoih te na ka loh a thui.
Brood of vipers! how can you speak good who are evil? For from the abundancies of the heart the mouth speaketh.
35 Hlang then loh khohrhang then khuikah a then a sat tih, hlang thae loh khohrhang thae khuikah a thae a sat.
A good man from the good treasuries bringeth forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasuries bringeth forth evil (things).
36 Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui, palyal olka aka thui rhoek boeih te laitloeknah khohnin ah hlang loh te ham te olka a thuung uh ni.
But I tell you, that for every useless word which the sons of men shall speak, they must give the answer for it in the day of judgment.
37 Na ol loh n'tang sak vetih na ol loh n'boe sak ni,” a ti nah.
For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
38 Te phoeiah cadaek rhoek hlangvang neh Pharisee rhoek loh Jesuh te a doo uh tih, “Saya nang taengkah miknoek hmuh ham ka ngaih uh,” a ti na uh.
THEN answered certain from the scribes and Pharishee, and said to him, Teacher, we would wish to see a sign from thee.
39 Tedae amih te a doo tih, “Boethae neh samphaih cadil rhoek loh miknoek tlap cakhaw, tonghma Jonah kah miknoek pawt atah miknoek m'pae mahpawh.
But he answered them and said, A generation depraved and adulterous requireth a sign; but a sign shall not be given to it, but the sign of Jaunon the prophet;
40 Jonah tah nga bung khuiah khothaih hnin thum neh khoyin hnin thum a om bangla hlang capa tah diklai ko khuiah khothaih hnin thum neh khoyin hnin thum om van ni.
for as Jaunon was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights, so the Son of man shall be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.
41 Laitloeknah hnin ah Nineveh hlang rhoek tah hekah cadil taengah pai uh vetih a boe sak ni. Jonah kah olhoe dongah amih yut uh. Tedae hekah aka om he Jonah lakah len dae ta he.
The men of Ninevoë. shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jaunon; and, behold, a greater than Jaunon (is) here.
42 Tuithim boeinu tah Solomon kah cueihnah hnatun hamla diklai bawt lamkah loh ha pawk dongah tahae kah cadil he laitloeknah ah a pai thil vetih a boe sak ni. Tedae heah he Solomon lakah aka len om dae ta he.
The queen of the south shall arise in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it; for she came from the confines of the earth that she might hear the wisdom of Shelemun; but one more excellent than Shelemun is here.
43 Mueihla thae loh hlang lamkah a coe phoeiah tuihang hmuen boeih ah cet tih duemnah a toem dae hmu pawh.
When the unclean spirit shall have gone forth from a child of man, he wandereth through places that have no waters in them, and seeketh repose, but findeth (it) not.
44 Te vaengah ka caeh tangtae te ka im la ka bal ni a ti. Te dongah, a pawk vaengah hoeng, nawt tangtae neh, khoem tangtae, la a hmuh.
Then he saith, I will return unto the house from whence I came forth; and coming, he findeth it untenanted, cleansed, and decorated.
45 Te phoeiah cet tih amah lakah aka thae mueihla a tloe parhih te amah taengla a khuen. Te phoeiah te rhoek ah kun uh tih kho a sak. Te dongah te hlang te lamhma kah lakah a hnukkhueng kah a om te thae. Tahae kah cadil he khaw rhaithae lam ni a om tangkhuet eh,” a ti. p
Then he goeth and taketh with him seven other spirits, than himself more wicked, and they enter and dwell in him. And the end of that man is worse than his beginning. So shall it be with this wicked race!
46 Hlangping te a voek li vaengah a manu neh a mana rhoek loh anih te voek ham a toem uh tih poeng ah pakcak pai uh.
While he spake to the assembly, his mother and his brethren came, standing without, and seeking to speak with him.
47 Te dongah pakhat loh, “Na nu neh na mana rhoek loh nang voek ham n'toem tih poeng ah pai uh ke,” a ti nah.
And a man said to him, Thy mother and thy brethren are standing without, and are requesting to speak with thee.
48 Te dongah amah aka voek te, “Unim kai manu? U rhoek nim kai mana rhoek?” a ti nah.
But he answered and said to him who spake to him, Who is my mother, and who are my brethren?
49 Te phoeiah a hnukbang rhoek taengla a kut a yueng tih, “Kai manu neh kai mana rhoek la he.
And he stretched forth his hand towards his disciples, and said, Behold my mother, and behold my brethren!
50 Vaan kah a Pa kongaih aka saii te tah ka manuca neh ngannu nganca neh manu la om,” a ti nah.
For every one who doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother, and my sister, and my mother.
