Matthai 19
1 Jesuh loh he rhoek kah ol boeih he bawt a khah phoeiah Galilee lamloh nong tih Jordan rhalvangan Judea vaang la pawk.
And it came to pass, when Jesus ended these words, he removed from Galilee and came into the bounds of Judaea beyond the Jordan.
2 Te vaengah Jesuh te hlangping loh muep a vai uh tih amih rhoek te pahoi a hoeih sak.
And there followed him large multitudes, and he cured them there.
3 Te vaengah Pharisee rhoek loh Jesuh te a paan uh tih a noemcai uh. Te vaengah, “Paelnaehnah khat khat dongah a yuu hla koinih tongpa ham tueng aya? a ti na uh.
And there came unto him Pharisees, testing him, and saying, —Whether is it allowed a man to divorce his wife, for every cause?
4 Tedae Jesuh loh a doo tih, “A tongcuek lamkah aka suen loh amih rhoi tongpa neh huta bueng a saii te na tae uh moenih a?
And, he, answering, said—Did ye never read—He who created at the beginning, Male and female, made them, —
5 Tedae he kongah ni, 'tongpa loh a manu neh a napa te a imphael tak ni. Te vaengah a yuu taengah kap vetih panit te pumsa pakhat la om ni,’ a ti.
and said—For this cause, will a man leave his father and his mother, and be united to his wife, —and, the two, will become, one flesh;
6 Te dongah panit lo pawt tih pumsa khat coeng ni. Te dongah Pathen loh a yingyawn sak te hlang loh maa sak boel saeh,” a ti nah.
So that, the longer, are they, two, but, one flesh, What, therefore, God, hath yoked together, Let not, a man, put asunder.
7 Te phoeiah Jesuh te, “Balae tih yuuhlaknah cayol te paek tih tueih ham Moses loh a uen,” a ti na uh.
They say unto him—Why then did, Moses, command, to give a writing of repudiation and to divorce?
8 Amih te, “Nangmih kah thinthahnah kongah ni na yuu te hlak ham te Moses loh nangmih m'paek. Tedae a tongcuek lamloh te te a om moenih.
He saith unto them—Moses, in view of your hardness of heart, permitted you to divorce your wives; From the beginning however, hath it not been done, thus.
9 Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui, Cukhalnah kawng pawt ah a yuu a hlak tih a tloe aka lo te tah samphaih coeng,” a ti nah.
And I say unto you—Whosoever shall divorce his wife, saving for unfaithfulness, and shall marry another, committeth adultery.
10 A hnukbang rhoek loh amah taengah, “A yuu taengah a va kah paelnaehnah om tangloeng koinih vasak te rhoei mahpawh,” a ti na uh.
The disciples say unto him—If, so, is the cause of the husband with the wife, it is not expedient to marry.
11 Tedae Jesuh loh amih te, “Hekah ol he hlang boeih loh a khingmong thai moenih. Tedae a paek rhoek long ni a khingmong thai.
But, he, said unto them—Not all, find room for he word, save they to whom it hath been given;
12 Manu bung lamloh hlueikhu la aka thaang te khaw om van. Hlang lamloh a hlueikhu sak hlueikhu te om. Vaan ram kongah amah aka hlueikhu, hlueikhu te khaw om. Aka khingmong thai loh khingmong saeh,” a ti nah.
For there, are, eunuchs, who, from their mother’s womb, were born so, and there, are, eunuchs, who were made eunuchs, by men, —and there, are, eunuchs, who have made, themselves, eunuchs, for the sake the kingdom of the heavens: He that is able to find room, let him find room.
13 Te phoeiah amih kut tloeng tih thangthui sak ham camoe rhoek te a taengla a khuen uh. Tedae amih te hnukbang rhoek loh a ho uh.
Then, were brought unto him children, —that he might lay his hands upon them, and pray. And, the disciples, rebuked them.
14 Tedae Jesuh loh, “Camoe rhoek te hlah uh lamtah kai taengla ha pawk ham atah amih te kanghalh uh boeh, vaan ram tah amih ham ni a om,” a ti nah.
But, Jesus, said—Suffer the children—and do not hinder them—to come unto me, —for, of such, is the kingdom of the heavens.
15 Amih soah kut a tloeng tih te lamloh vik cet.
And, laying his hands upon them, he went his way from thence.
16 Te phoeiah hlang pakhat loh Jesuh taengla pakcak a paan tih, “Saya, dungyan hingnah ka khueh ham mebang hno then nim ka saii eh,” a ti nah. (aiōnios g166)
And lo! one coming near unto him, said, Teacher! what good thing shall I do, that I may have life age-abiding? (aiōnios g166)
17 Tedae Jesuh loh anih te, “Balae tih kai he a then kawng nan dawt? A then pakhat ni a om. Tedae hingnah khuila kun na ngaih atah olpaek te tuem,” a ti nah.
And, he, said unto him—Why dost thou question me concerning that which is good? There is, One, that is good! But, if thou desirest, into life, to enter, be keeping the commandments.
18 Jesuh te, “Mebang nim,” a ti nah. Te dongah Jesuh loh, “Hlang ngawn boeh, samphaih boeh, huencan boeh, laithae boeh
He saith unto him, Which? Jesus, said—These: Thou shalt not commit murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, —Thou shalt not bear false witness;
19 Na nu neh na pa hinyah lamtah na imben te namah bangla lungnah,” a ti nah.
Honour thy father and thy mother, —and—Thou shalt love thy neighbour as, thyself.
20 Cadong loh, “He rhoek he boeih ka tuem coeng, balae ka phavawt bal pueng?” a ti nah.
The young man saith unto him—These all, have I kept, —What, further, do I lack?
21 Jesuh loh anih te, “Lungcuei la om na ngaih atah cet lamtah na khuehtawn te yoi. Te phoeiah khodaeng te pae. Te daengah ni vaan ah khohrhang na khueh eh. Te phoeiah kai pahoi m'vai,” a ti nah.
Jesus said unto him—If thou desirest to be perfect, Withdraw! sell thy substance, and give to the destitute, —and thou shalt have treasure in the heavens; and come! be following me.
22 Tedae cadong tah hnopai muep aka khueh la a om dongah ol te a yaak vaengah kothae doeah cet.
And the young man, hearing, this word, went away sorrowing, —for he was holding large possessions.
23 Te vaengah Jesuh loh a hnukbang rhoek te, “Nangmih taengah rhep ka thui, kuirhang tah vaan ram ah kun tloel ni.
And, Jesus, said unto his disciples—Verily, I say unto you, A rich man, with difficulty, shall enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
24 Te phoeiah nangmih taengah koep kan thui, kuirhang te Pathen ram khuiah a kun lakah kalauk te phamet khui longah a ael ke yoeikoek la om,” a ti nah.
Again I say unto you—Easier, is it for, a camel, through the eye of a needle, to enter, than a rich man—into the kingdom of God.
25 Hnukbang rhoek loh a yaak uh vaengah let uh dahlawt tih, “Te koinih ulae khang la aka om eh?” a ti uh.
And, hearing it, the disciples were being struck with the greatest astonishment, saying—Who then can be saved?
26 Tedae Jesuh loh amih te a sawt tih, “He he hlang taengah a tloel la om, tedae Pathen taengah boeih coeng thai,” a ti nah.
And, looking intently, Jesus said unto them—With men, this is, impossible, but, with God, all things are possible.
27 Te vaengah Peter loh a doo tih, “Kaimih tah rhoepsaep boeih ka toeng uh tih, namah kam vai uh coeng he. Te koinih kaimih ham balae aka om eh?” a ti nah.
Then, making answer, Peter said unto him—Lo! we, have left all, and followed thee, —What then shall there be, for us?
28 Te dongah Jesuh loh, “Nangmih taengah rhep ka thui, nangmih loh kai nam vai uh coeng. Hlang capa tah koepcunnah dongah a thangpomnah ngolkhoel sola ngol ni. Nangmih khaw ngolkhoel hlainit soah na ngol uh vetih Israel koca hlainit te lai na tloek uh ni.
And, Jesus, said unto them—Verily, I say unto you, As for you who followed me in the regeneration, When the Son of Man shall take his seat on his throne of glory, ye also, shall be seated upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
29 Kai ming kongah a im a lo boeih, manuca rhoek, ngannu rhoek, a manu napa, a ca rhoek, aka toeng boeih te tah a pueh yakhat a dang vetih dungyan hingnah a pang ni. (aiōnios g166)
And, whosoever left houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or children, or lands, for sake of my name, manifold, shall receive, and life, age-abiding, shall inherit. (aiōnios g166)
30 Tedae lamhma khaw hnukkhueng la, hnukkhueng khaw lamhma la muep om uh ni.
But many shall be—first-last, and last-first.
