Matthai 24
1 Jesuh tah bawkim lamloh khoe uh tih Cet. Te vaengah bawkim kah hlinsainah te tueng ham a hnukbang rhoek loh a paan uh.
As Jesus walked out of the temple, his disciples came, and caused him to observe the buildings of it.
2 Tedae amih te a doo tih, “Boeih na hmuh uh moenih a he? Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, phil ham pawt koi lungto sokah lungto pataeng hmaai loeng loeng mahpawh he,” a ti nah.
Jesus said to them, All this you see; indeed I say to you, one stone shall not be left here upon another. All shall be razed.
3 Olives tlang ah Jesuh amah bueng a ngol vaengah hnukbang rhoek loh a paan uh tih, “Na lonah neh kumhal kah a bawtnah miknoek tah metlam lae? He rhoek he me vaengah lae a om eh? Kaimih taengah thui lah?” a ti na uh. (aiōn g165)
As he sat upon the Mount of Olives his disciples addressed him privately, saying, Tell us, when will this happen; and what will be the sign of your coming, and of the conclusion of this state? (aiōn g165)
4 Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Khat khat loh nangmih te n'rhaithi pawt ham dawn uh.
Jesus answering, said to them, Take heed that no man seduce you:
5 Kai ming neh muep ha pawk uh ni. 'Kai tah Khrih ni,’ a ti uh vetih muep a rhaithi uh ni.
for many will assume my character, saying, I am the Messiah, and will seduce many.
6 Tedae caem neh caem kah puenpa na yaak uh tom coeng. Na hmuh uh vaengah let uh boeh. Te khaw a om ham a kuek ngawn dae a bawtnah tah om hlan.
Nay, you shall hear of wars, and rumors of wars; but take care that you be not alarmed: for all these things must happen; but the end is not yet.
7 Namtom loh namtom, ram loh ram a tlai thil ni. Te phoeiah khokha om vetih hmuen tom ah lingluei hinghuen ni.
For nation will arise against nation; and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be famines and pestilences, and earthquakes in sundry places.
8 Tedae he rhoek boeih he bungtloh a tongnah ni.
Yet these are but the prelude of woes.
9 Te phoeiah nangmih te phacipphabaem dongah m'voeih uh vetih nangmih te n'ngawn uh ni. Kai ming kongah namtom boeih kah a hmuhuet la na om uh ni.
For they will deliver you to torments and to death, and you shall be hated by all nations on my account.
10 Te vaengah a cungkuem te a khah uh vetih pakhat te a voeih uh phoeiah pakhat te a thiinah uh ni.
Then many will be ensnared, and will betray their fellows, and hate them.
11 Te phoeiah laithae tonghma muep thoo vetih hlang muep a rhaithi uh ni.
And many false prophets will arise, who will seduce many.
12 Olaeknah te ping vetih lungnah te muep daeh ni.
And because vice will abound, the love of the greater number will cool.
13 Tedae a bawt duela aka ueh te tah daem ni.
But the man who perseveres to the end shall be saved.
14 Te phoeiah ram kah olthangthen he namtom boeih taengah laipai la om sak ham lunglai pum boeih ah a hoe ni. Te daengah ni a bawtnah te ha pawk pueng eh.
And this gospel of the Reign shall be published through all the world, for the information of all nations. And then shall come the end.
15 Te dongah tonghma Daniel loh hmuen cim ah pai tih mitmoengnah neh tueilaehnah a thui te na hmuh uh, aka tae loh yakming saeh.
When, therefore, you shall see, on holy ground, the desolating abomination foretold by the Prophet Daniel, (reader, attend!)
16 Te vaengah Judah kah rhoek loh tlang la rhaelrham uh saeh.
then let those in Judea flee to the mountains:
17 Imphu sokah loh a im kah te puen hamla suntla boel saeh.
let not him, who shall be upon the housetop, come down to carry things out of his house;
18 Lohma kah loh a himbai khuen ham a hnukla bal boel saeh.
and let not him, who shall be in the field, return to take his mantle.
19 Tedae te khohnin ah bungvawn neh cacun la aka om rhoek tah lungma.
But alas for the women with child, and for them that give suck in those days!
20 Tedae Nangmih kah rhaelrhamnah tah sikca neh Sabbath ah a om pawt ham thangthui uh.
Pray, therefore, that your flight happen not in the winter, nor on a Sabbath;
21 Te vaengah phacipphabaem muep om ni. Te bang te Diklai tongcuek lamkah loh tahae duela om noek pawt tih ka om bal eh a ti tlaih voel moenih.
because there shall be then so great tribulation, as has not been since the beginning of the world until now, nor shall be ever after.
22 Te khohnin te boem pawt koinih pumsa boeih tah daem mai mahpawh. Tedae a coelh rhoek ham te khohnin a boem pah ni.
For, if the time were protracted, no soul could survive; but for the sake of the elect, the time will be short.
23 Te vaengah pakhat loh nangmih taengah, 'Hela khrih he, kela ke,’ a ti atah tangnah boeh.
If any man shall say to you then, Lo! the Messiah is here, or he is there, believe it not:
24 Laithae khrih neh laithae tonghma rhoek tah thoo uh ni. Coengthai koinih a coelh rhoek pataeng rhaithi ham miknoek a len neh khobae rhambae te a khueh uh ni.
for false Messiahs and false prophets will arise, who will perform great wonders and prodigies, so as to seduce, if possible, the elect themselves.
25 Nangmih taengah kan thui coeng he ne.
Remember, I have warned you.
26 Te dongah nangmih te, 'Khosoek ah om ke,’ a ti uh atah cet uh boeh. 'Imkhui ah la ke,’ a ti uh akhaw tangnah uh boeh.
Wherefore, if they say, He is in the desert, go not out. He is in the closet, believe it not.
27 Khophaa loh khothoeng lamkah cet tih khotlak due a phaa bangla hlang capa kah a lonah khaw om van ni.
For the coming of the Son of Man shall be like lightning, which breaking forth from the east, shines even to the west.
28 Rhok loh a om nah te langta loh hnap a boo ni.
For wheresoever the carcass is, the eagles will be gathered together.
29 Tekah phacipphabaem khohnin phoeiah khomik loh tlek hmuep vetih hla loh a aa pae mahpawh. Aisi tah vaan lamkah loh cuhu vetih vaan kah thaomnah loh hinghoek uh ni.
Immediately after those days of affliction, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall withhold her light; and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the heavenly powers shall be shaken.
30 Te vaengah Hlang Capa kah miknoek tah vaan ah tueng ni. Diklai koca boeih loh a rhaengae uh vetih, hlang capa loh vaan kah khomai dongah thaomnah, a len la thangpomnah neh ha pawk te a hmuh uh ni.
Then shall appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven, and all the tribes of the land shall mourn, when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with great majesty and power.
31 Amah kah puencawn rhoek te olueng ol aka cai neh a tueih vetih a coelh hlang rhoek te dilaikil pali lamkah, vaan ak a soi lamloh a soi duela tingtun uh ni.
And he will send his messengers with a loud sounding trumpet, who shall assemble his elect from the four quarters of the earth, from one extremity of the world to the other.
32 Thaibu lamkah nuettahnah te ming uh. A hlaeng loh suepluep la om tih a hnah a boe vaengah khohal tom coeng tila na ming uh.
Learn now a similitude from the fig tree. When its branches become tender and put forth leaves, you know that summer is nigh.
33 Nangmih khaw he rhoek he boeih na hmuh uh vaengah tah thohka ah ha pawk tom coeng tila ming uh.
In like manner, when you shall see all these things, know that he is near, even at the door.
34 Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, he rhoek boeih loh a thoeng hlan atah he cadil he khum loeng loeng mahpawh.
Indeed, I say to you, this race shall not pass, until all these things happen.
35 Vaan neh diklai tah khumpael ni tedae ka ol he ta khumpael rhoerhoe mahpawh.
Heaven and earth shall fail; but my words shall never fail.
36 Tekah a tue neh khohnin te a Pa bueng pawt atah Capa long khaw, vaan kah puencawn rhoek long khaw ming pawh.
But of that day, and that hour, know none, but the Father; no, not the angels.
37 Noah tue kah bangla Hlang Capa kah ha lonah khaw om tangloeng van ni.
Now that which happened in Noah's time, will also happen at the coming of the Son of Man.
38 Tevaeng tue kah rhoek tah tuilii hlan lamkah loh Noah lawng khuila a kun khohnin duela a caak uh, a ok uh, yuuloh vasak, rhaihlan neh om uh.
For as in the days before the flood, even to that day that Noah entered the ark, they were eating and drinking, and marrying,
39 Tuilii lo tih boeih a khuen duela ming uh pawh. Hlang Capa kah a lonah khaw om van tangloeng ni.
and suspected nothing, until the flood came and swept them all away: so shall it also be at the coming of the Son of Man.
40 Te vaengah lohma ah hlang panit om ni. Pakhat te a khuen vetih pakhat a hlah ni.
Two men shall be in the field; one shall be taken, and one shall be left.
41 Phaklung neh aka kuelh rhoi te pakhat a khuen vetih pakhat a paih ni.
Two women shall be grinding at the mill; one shall be taken, and one shall be left.
42 Te dongah hak uh laeh, na Boeipa ha pawk tue te na ming uh moenih.
Watch, therefore, since you know not at what hour your master will come.
43 Imkung loh hlanghuen ha pawk tue te ming koinih hak vetih a im te muk sak mahpawh tite na ming uh.
You are sure, that if the householder knew at what time of the night the thief would come, he would watch, and not suffer him to break into his house.
44 Te dongah nangmih khaw sikim la om uh. Hlang capa tah na poek uh pawt tue vaengah ha pawk ni.
Be you, therefore, always prepared; because the Son of Man will come at an hour, when you are not expecting him.
45 Te koinih uepom neh sal cueih la unim aka om? Anih te boeipa loh a imkhuikho ah a tuetang vaengah amih ham buh aka poep la a khueh.
Who, now, is the discreet and faithful servant, whom his master has set over his household, to dispense to them regularly their allowance?
46 A boei loh ha pawk vaengah a saii te a hmuh tangloeng atah sal te khaw a yoethen.
Happy that servant, if his master, at his return, find him so employed.
47 Nangmih taengah rhep ka thui, amah kah khuehtawn boeih soah anih te a om sak ni.
Indeed, I say to you, he will intrust him with the management of all his estate.
48 Tedae sal thae long tah a thinko khuiah, 'Ka boeipa tah di coeng,’ a ti.
But as to the vicious servant, who shall say within himself, My master defers his return,
49 Te dongah a sal puei rhoek te koe a boh. Aka rhui rhoek taengah a caak tih a ok van.
and shall beat his fellow-servants, and feast and carouse with drunkards;
50 A lamso pawh khohnin neh a ming pawt tue vaengah ni boeipa loh sal te a paan eh.
the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not expecting him, and at an hour of which he is not apprised,
51 Te vaengah anih te a tloek vetih a paihmuen te hlangthai palat rhoek taengla a khueh pah ni. Te rhoek ah rhah neh no rhuengnah ni a om eh.
and having discarded him, will assign him his portion among the perfidious. Weeping and gnashing of teeth shall be there.
