Matthai 15
1 Te phoeiah Pharisee rhoek neh cadaek rhoek tah Jerusalem lamloh Jesuh te a paan uh tih,
Then there came to Jesus from Jerusalem Pharisees and scribes, saying,
2 “Balae tih na hnukbang rhoek loh a ham rhoek kah singyoe te a aek uh? Buh a caak uh vaengah a kut sil uh pawh,” a ti na uh.
Why do your disciples go against the teaching of the fathers? for they take food with unwashed hands.
3 Tedae amih te a doo tih, “Namamih kah singyoe kongah Pathen kah olpaek te balae tih na aek uh van?
And in answer he said to them, Why do you, yourselves, go against the word of God on account of the teaching which has been handed down to you?
4 Pathen loh, ‘Na nu neh na pa te hinyah lah. Tedae manu napa aka thet tah dueknah neh duek saeh,’ a ti.
For God said, Give honour to your father and mother: and, He who says evil of father or mother will be put to death.
5 Tedae nangmih loh, 'Hoeikhang vaengah tah, 'Manu napa khaw, te te kamah lamkah hmueih ni,’ a ti coeng atah,
But you say, If a man says to his father or his mother, That by which you might have had profit from me is given to God;
6 A napa a hinyah pawt moenih,” na ti uh. Te dongah Pathen kah ol te namamih kah singyoe neh na hmil uh.
There is no need for him to give honour to his father. And you have made the word of God without effect because of your teaching.
7 Hlangthai palat rhoek, Isaiah loh nangmih kawng te phek a phong tih,
You false ones, well did Isaiah say of you,
8 Pilnam long he a hmui neh kan n'hinyah uh. Tedae a thinko tah kai lamloh voelh hla coeng.
These people give me honour with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
9 A poeyoek la kai m'bawk uh tih hlang kah olpaek lamkah thuituennah neh a thuituen uh,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
But their worship is to no purpose, while they give as their teaching the rules of men.
10 Te phoeiah hlangping te a khue tih, “Hnatun lamtah hmuhming uh lah.
And he got the people together and said to them, Give ear, and let my words be clear to you:
11 Ka khuila aka kun loh hlang a poeih moenih. Tedae ka lamkah aka thoeng loh hlang a poeih,” a ti nah.
Not that which goes into the mouth makes a man unclean, but that which comes out of the mouth.
12 Te vaengah hnukbang rhoek loh amah a paan uh tih, “Ol he a yaak vaengah Pharisee rhoek a khah te na ming nama?” a ti nah.
Then the disciples came and said to him, Did you see that the Pharisees were troubled when these words came to their ears?
13 Tedae amah loh a doo tih, “A pa loh a ling mueh thingling boeih te vaan loh a phuk ni.
But he said in answer, Every plant which my Father in heaven has not put in the earth, will be taken up by the roots.
14 Amih te hlah uh, mikdael rhoek tah mikdael rhoek kah longtuengkung ni. Mikdael loh mikdael te longtueng koinih rhom ah bok cungku ni,” a ti nah.
Let them be: they are blind guides. And if a blind man is guiding a blind man, the two will go falling into a hole together.
15 Peter loh a doo tih, “Kekah nuettahnah he kaimih ham thuicaih lah,” a ti nah.
Then Peter said to him, Make the story clear to us.
16 Tedae Jesuh loh, “Nangmih khaw lungmong kotalh la na om uh pueng a?
And he said, Are you, like them, still without wisdom?
17 Ka khuila aka kun boeih te bungpuei la cet tih naat la a pha te na yakming uh pawt nim?
Do you not see that whatever goes into the mouth goes on into the stomach, and is sent out as waste?
18 Tedae ka lamkah aka thoeng tah thinko lamkah ha thoeng dongah hlang a poeih.
But the things which come out of the mouth come from the heart; and they make a man unclean.
19 Poeknah a thae, ngawnnah, samphaihnah, Cukhalnah, huencannah, a honghi neh soehsalnah he thinko lamkah ni ha thoeng.
For out of the heart come evil thoughts, the taking of life, broken faith between the married, unclean desires of the flesh, taking of property, false witness, bitter words:
20 Hekah rhoek long ni hlang a poeih. Tedae kut muen a la aka ca loh hlang a poeih moenih,” a ti nah.
These are the things which make a man unclean; but to take food with unwashed hands does not make a man unclean.
21 Te lamloh a caeh phoeiah Jesuh tah Tyre neh Sidon pingpang la khoe uh.
And Jesus went away from there into the country of Tyre and Sidon.
22 Te vaengah te rhoek vaang lamkah Kanaan nu pakcak ha thoeng tih a pang doela, “Kai he n'rhen lah, Boeipa, David capa, ka canu tah rhaithae a kaem khuengrhueng,” a ti nah.
And a woman of Canaan came out from those parts, crying and saying, Have pity on me, O Lord, Son of David; my daughter is greatly troubled with an unclean spirit.
23 Tedae anih te ol lan pawh. Te dongah a hnukbang rhoek loh a paan uh. Amah te a dawt uh tih, “Anih ke kaimih hnukah pang coeng tih tueih laeh,” a ti uh.
But he gave her no answer. And his disciples came and said to him, Send her away, for she is crying after us.
24 Tedae Jesuh loh a doo tih, “Israel imkhui kah tu aka poci ham pawt koinih n'tueih mahpawh,” a ti nah.
But he made answer and said, I was sent only to the wandering sheep of the house of Israel.
25 Huta te ha pawk vaengah anih te a bawk tih, “Boeipa, kai m'bom dae,” a ti nah.
But she came and gave him worship, saying, Help, Lord.
26 Tedae a doo vaengah tah, “Ca kah buh te rhawt tih ui ham a tloeng tah a then moenih,” a ti nah.
And he made answer and said, It is not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs.
27 Tedae te long khaw, “Ue ta, Boeipa, ui pataeng a boei rhoek kah caboei lamkah aka bo buhdik te a caak ta,” a ti nah.
But she said, Yes, Lord: but even the dogs take the bits from under their masters' table.
28 Te vaengah Jesuh loh a doo tih, “Aw huta, nang kah tangnah tah len pai, nang ham tah na ngaih bangla om pai saeh,” a ti nah. Tekah a tue lamloh a canu te hoeih.
Then Jesus, answering, said to her, O woman, great is your faith: let your desire be done. And her daughter was made well from that hour.
29 Te lamloh a thoeih vaengah Jesuh tah Galilee tuili la pawk. Te phoeiah tlang la luei tih pahoi ngol.
And Jesus went from there and came to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and took his seat there.
30 Te vaengah hlangping loh amah te muep a paan uh tih, aka khaem rhoek, mikdael rhoek, aka khawn rhoek, olmueh rhoek neh a tloe boeih te amamih neh a khuen uh. Amih te Jesuh kho kungla pak a voeih uh dongah amih te a hoeih sak.
And there came to him great numbers of people having with them those who were broken in body, or blind, or without voice, or wounded, or ill in any way, and a number of others; they put them down at his feet and he made them well:
31 Olmueh khaw cal, aka khawn khaw a sading, aka khaem khaw cet, mikdael loh a hmuh, te hlangping loh a hmuh vaengah a ngaihmang uh tih, Israel Pathen te a thangpom uh.
So that the people were full of wonder when they saw that those who had no voice were talking, the feeble were made strong, those whose bodies were broken had the power of walking, and the blind were able to see: and they gave glory to the God of Israel.
32 Jesuh loh a hnukbang rhoek te a khue tih, “Hlangping hamla ka thinphat, kai taengah hnin thum rhaeh uh coeng tih, a caak ham ba khaw khueh uh pawh. Te dongah amih he buhmueh rhathih la tueih ka ngaih pawh. Longpueng ah tawnba uh ve,” a ti nah.
And Jesus got his disciples together and said, I have pity for the people, because they have now been with me three days and have no food: and I will not send them away without food, or they will have no strength for the journey.
33 Tedae amah taengah hnukbang rhoek loh, “Vaidam heyet he kohong ah me lamkah nim mamih ham a om eh? Heyet hlangping a hah ham akhaw,” a ti uh.
And the disciples say to him, How may we get enough bread in a waste place, to give food to such a number of people?
34 Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te, “Vaidam meyet na khueh uh,” a ti nah. Te vaengah, “Vaidam parhih neh ngadik a yool ni,” a ti na uh.
And Jesus says to them, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes, and some small fishes.
35 Te phoeiah hlangping te lai ah ngol hamla ol a uen tih,
Then he gave an order to the people to be seated on the earth,
36 Vaidam hluem rhih neh nga te a loh tih, a uem, a aeh tih hnukbang rhoek te a paek tih hnukbang rhoek loh hlangping te a doe.
And he took the seven cakes of bread and the fishes; and having given praise, he gave the broken bread to the disciples, and the disciples gave it to the people.
37 Hlang boeih loh a caak uh tih hah uh. Te phoeiah a coih a nueipil te voh parhih a bae la a phueih uh.
And they all took food, and had enough; and they took up of the broken bits, seven baskets full.
38 Aka ca rhoek tah huta neh camoe tae kolla tongpa thawngli lo uh.
And there were four thousand men who took food, together with women and children.
39 Hlangping te a tueih phoeiah lawng khuila kun tih Magadan vaang la pawk.
And when he had sent the people away, he got into the boat, and came into the country of Magadan.
