Matthai 15
1 Te phoeiah Pharisee rhoek neh cadaek rhoek tah Jerusalem lamloh Jesuh te a paan uh tih,
Then scholars and Pharisees from Jerusalem come to Jesus, 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 thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.
3 Tedae amih te a doo tih, “Namamih kah singyoe kongah Pathen kah olpaek te balae tih na aek uh van?
And having answered, he said to them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God, because of your tradition?
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 commanded, saying, Honor thy father and thy mother, and, He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him perish in death.
5 Tedae nangmih loh, 'Hoeikhang vaengah tah, 'Manu napa khaw, te te kamah lamkah hmueih ni,’ a ti coeng atah,
But ye say, Whoever may say to the father or the mother, Whatever thou might have benefited from me is an offering.
6 A napa a hinyah pawt moenih,” na ti uh. Te dongah Pathen kah ol te namamih kah singyoe neh na hmil uh.
And he will, no, not honor his father or mother. And ye have annulled the command of God because of your tradition.
7 Hlangthai palat rhoek, Isaiah loh nangmih kawng te phek a phong tih,
Ye hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying,
8 Pilnam long he a hmui neh kan n'hinyah uh. Tedae a thinko tah kai lamloh voelh hla coeng.
This people comes near me with their mouth, and honors me with their lips, but their heart is far distant 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.
And in vain they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.
10 Te phoeiah hlangping te a khue tih, “Hnatun lamtah hmuhming uh lah.
And having called in the multitude, he said to them, Hear and understand.
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 enters into the mouth defiles the man, but that which comes out of the mouth, this defiles the man.
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 having come near, his disciples said to him, Know thou that the Pharisees were offended when they heard the saying?
13 Tedae amah loh a doo tih, “A pa loh a ling mueh thingling boeih te vaan loh a phuk ni.
But having answered, he said, Every plant that my heavenly Father did not plant, will be uprooted.
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.
Leave them. They are blind leaders of blind men, and if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a ditch.
15 Peter loh a doo tih, “Kekah nuettahnah he kaimih ham thuicaih lah,” a ti nah.
And having answered, Peter said to him, Explain this parable to us.
16 Tedae Jesuh loh, “Nangmih khaw lungmong kotalh la na om uh pueng a?
And Jesus said, Are ye also still without understanding?
17 Ka khuila aka kun boeih te bungpuei la cet tih naat la a pha te na yakming uh pawt nim?
Do ye not yet understand, that everything entering into the mouth goes into the belly, and is cast out into a toilet?
18 Tedae ka lamkah aka thoeng tah thinko lamkah ha thoeng dongah hlang a poeih.
But the things coming out of the mouth come forth from the heart, and those things defile the man.
19 Poeknah a thae, ngawnnah, samphaihnah, Cukhalnah, huencannah, a honghi neh soehsalnah he thinko lamkah ni ha thoeng.
For from the heart comes forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witnessings, revilings.
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 things defiling the man. But to eat with unwashed hands does not defile the man.
21 Te lamloh a caeh phoeiah Jesuh tah Tyre neh Sidon pingpang la khoe uh.
And having gone out from there, Jesus departed into the regions 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 behold, a Canaanite woman having come out from those regions, cried out to him, saying, Be merciful to me, O Lord, thou son of David, my daughter is grievously demon-possessed.
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 answered her not a word. And his disciples having approached, they besought him, saying, Send her away, because she cries out behind us.
24 Tedae Jesuh loh a doo tih, “Israel imkhui kah tu aka poci ham pawt koinih n'tueih mahpawh,” a ti nah.
But having answered, he said, I was not sent except to the lost 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 having come, she worshiped him, saying, Lord, help me.
26 Tedae a doo vaengah tah, “Ca kah buh te rhawt tih ui ham a tloeng tah a then moenih,” a ti nah.
And having answered, he said, It is not right to take the children's bread and cast it to the house 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, for even the house dogs eat of the crumbs that fall from the table of their masters.
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 having answered, said to her, O woman, great is thy faith. Be it done for thee as thou desire. And her daughter was healed from that hour.
29 Te lamloh a thoeih vaengah Jesuh tah Galilee tuili la pawk. Te phoeiah tlang la luei tih pahoi ngol.
And having departed from there, Jesus came near the sea of Galilee. And having gone up onto the mountain, he sat 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 many multitudes came to him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, crippled, and many others. And they placed them beside Jesus' feet, and he healed them,
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 as for the multitudes to marvel seeing the mute speaking, the maimed healthy, and the lame walking, and the blind seeing. And they glorified 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 having summoned his disciples, he said, I feel compassion toward the multitude because they continue with me now three days and do not have what they might eat. And I do not want to dismiss them without food, lest they might faint on the way.
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 his disciples say to him, From where are so many loaves for us in a wilderness so as to feed so great a multitude?
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 many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few small fishes.
35 Te phoeiah hlangping te lai ah ngol hamla ol a uen tih,
And he commanded the multitudes to sit down on the ground.
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 after taking the seven loaves and the fishes, having expressed thanks, he broke in pieces, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.
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 ate and were filled. And they took up seven hampers full of the fragments that remained.
38 Aka ca rhoek tah huta neh camoe tae kolla tongpa thawngli lo uh.
And those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.
39 Hlangping te a tueih phoeiah lawng khuila kun tih Magadan vaang la pawk.
And having dismissed the multitudes, he entered into the boat, and came into the regions of Magdala.
