Matthai 6
1 Te dongah nangmih kah duengnah te ngaithuen uh. Te hmuh sak ham hlang hmai ah saii boeh. Te pawt koinih vaan ah na pa taengkah thapang na dang uh mahpawh.
“Be careful not to give to the needy in front of others to be seen by them, otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven.
2 Te dongah doedannah na khueh vaengah, hlang loh a thangpom ham hlangthai palat rhoek lohtunim neh imhlai laklo ah a saii bangla na hmaiah ueng boeh. Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, a thapang vik a bawt uh coeng.
So when yoʋ give to the needy, do not sound a trumpet before yoʋ, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be praised by others. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward.
3 Tedae doedannah na khueh khaw, na bantang kah a saii te na banvoei loh ming boel saeh.
But when yoʋ give to the needy, do not let yoʋr left hand know what yoʋr right hand is doing,
4 Te dongah na doedannah te a huep la om mai saeh. Te daengah ni a huep a hael kah aka hmu na Pa loh nangmih te n'thuung eh.
so that yoʋr giving may be in secret. Then yoʋr Father who sees in secret will himself reward yoʋ openly.
5 Na thangthui uh vaengah hlangthaipalat la om uh boeh. Hlang kah a hmuh ah thangthui ham tunim neh toltung kah a kil ah a pai te a lungnah uh. Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, a thapang te vik a bawt uh coeng.
“When yoʋ pray, do not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and at the street corners so that they may be seen by others. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward.
6 Na thangthui vaengah na imkhui la kun lamtah na thohka te na khaih phoeiah a huep kah aka om na Pa taengah thangthui. Te daengah ni a huep kah aka hmu na Pa loh nang n'thuung eh.
But when yoʋ pray, go into yoʋr inner room, shut yoʋr door, and pray to yoʋr Father who is in secret. Then yoʋr Father who sees in secret will reward yoʋ openly.
7 Thangthui vaengah namtom rhoek bangla tlawk boeh. A caitawtnah te a hnatun ni tila a poek uh.
“And when you pray, do not babble on repetitiously like the Gentiles do, for they think they will be heard because of their use of many words.
8 Te dongah amih neh na vai uh moenih. Na pa loh na bih hlanah na ngoe te a ming coeng.
Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
9 Te dongah nangmih tah he tlamhe thangthui uh. Vaan kah kaimih napa namah ming tah ciim rhoe pai.
Pray then like this: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be yoʋr name.
10 Na ram tah ha pai saeh. Na kongaih tah vaan kah bangla diklai ah khaw soep saeh.
Yoʋr kingdom come. Yoʋr will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Khohnin rhamhnin kah ham kaimih kah buh he tihnin ah kaimih m'pae lah.
Give us this day our daily bread.
12 Kaimih sokah laikung rhoek te ka hlah uh bangla, kaimih kah laiba dongah kaimih n'hlah lah.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13 Cuekhalhnah khuila kaimih ng'khuen boel lamtah, a thae khui lamkah loh kaimih n'hlawt lah.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For yoʋrs is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
14 Hlang te a tholhdalhnah na hlah pah atah, vaan kah na Pa loh nang khaw n'hlah ni.
For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
15 Hlang te tholh na hlah pah pawt atah na pa loh nangmih kah tholhdalhnah te han hlah mahpawh.
But if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
16 Na yaeh uh vaengah hlangthai palat, hmueprhutla rhoek bangla om uh boeh. A yaeh uh te hlang taengah phoe sak ham a maelhmai te a buenglueng uh. Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, a thapang te vik a bawt uh coeng.
“When you fast, do not be gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces so that others will see that they are fasting. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward.
17 Tedae na yaeh vaengah na maelhmai te sil lamtah, na lu khaw hluk.
But when yoʋ fast, anoint yoʋr head and wash yoʋr face,
18 N'yaeh he hlang taengah pawt tih a huep ah aka om na Pa taengah lat tueng sak. Te daengah ni a huep ah aka hmu na Pa loh nang n'thuung eh.
so that no one will see that yoʋ are fasting except yoʋr Father who is in secret. Then yoʋr Father who sees in secret will reward yoʋ.
19 Diklai hmanah namamih ham khohrhang khoem uh boeh. Te ah te keet neh thi-aek loh a caak, hlanghuen loh a muk tih a huen.
“Do not store up treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
20 Vaan ah na khohrhang te khoem uh. Te ah te keet om pawh thi-aek long khaw a caak moenih, hlanghuen long khaw muk pawt tih huen pawh.
But store up treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in and steal.
21 Na khohrhang a om nah ah ni na thinko khaw a om eh.
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
22 Mik he pum kah hmaiim la om. Te dongah na mik loh cilrhik la a om atah na pum boeih cilping la om ni.
“The lamp of the body is the eye. If then yoʋr eye is clear, yoʋr whole body will be full of light.
23 Tedae na mik te a thae la aom atah na pum tom ah a hmuep la om ni. Te dongah nang kah vangnah te yinnah la a poeh atah te yinnah te nah coeng.
But if yoʋr eye is bad, yoʋr whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within yoʋ is darkness, how great is the darkness!
24 Boei panit taengah sal a bi thai moenih. Te dongah Pakhat te a hmuhuet vetih a tloe te a lungnah ni. Pakhat te a talong vetih a tloe te a hnoel ni. Pathen neh laikhuehtawn taengah sal na bi rhenten thai moenih.
“No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.
25 Nangmih taengah kan thui, mebang khaw na caak vetih, mebang na ok ham akhaw, na pum te mebang na bai sak pawt akhaw na hinglu te mawn sak boeh. Hinglu tah buh lakah, pum he khaw himbai lakah olpuei la om pawt nim?
“Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat and what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
26 Vaan kah vaa rhoek ke so uh lah. Amih loh tuh uh pawt tih at uh pawh, khai ah khaw a sang uh moenih. Tedae vaan kah na pa loh amih te a khut. Amih lakah na tanglue uh moenih a?
Look at the birds of the sky: They do not sow or reap or gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
27 Te dongah nangmih khuikah unim aka mawn tih a hinglung te dong khat ham a tom thai?
Which of you by being anxious can add a single moment to yoʋr span of life?
28 Balae tih himbai ham te na mawn uh? Lohma kah rhaipai ke metla a rhoeng khaw poek lah. Thakthae uh pawh, cunghmui khaw hnuk uh pawh.
And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: They do not toil or spin,
29 Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui, Solomon pataeng a thangpomnah boeih neh he kah rhaipai pakhat bangla a bai sak moenih.
yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these.
30 Tihnin ah om tih thangvuen ah hmailing dongla phum hamkoi lohma kah khopol pataeng khaw Pathen loh a phuekhlaak tangloeng atah uepvawt rhoek aw nangmih te muep n'thoeihcam ngai mahpawt nim?
Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
31 Te dongah, banim ka caak uh vetih banim ka ok uh ve? Banim ka bai uh ve? ti nen khaw mawn uh boeh.
Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or, ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘What will we wear?’
32 He rhoek boeih he namtom rhoek long ni a vawtthaih uh. Vaan kah na pa loh na kuek uh boeih te a ming.
For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.
33 Tedae Pathen kah ram neh a duengnah te lamhma la toem uh lah. Te daengah ni he rhoek boeih he nangmih taengah han thap eh.
But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
34 Te dongah thangvuen ham mawn uh boeh. Thangvuen amah te mawn bitni. Hnin at kah a phayoenah he amah ah rhoeh coeng.
“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious about its own matters. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
