Luke 12
1 Hiche pet chun, mihonpi chu asang ajan ahung khang in akisucheh chuh un chule khat le khat kichonkha ton aumun, Yeshuan hichun aseijuite henglam ahin ngan agih sal in, “Pharisee ho chol a konin kihong phauvin”—aphat lhemnauva kon'in.
Then, as great crowds were standing so close that they were stepping on one another, he began to say to his disciples: “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
2 Phat ahung lhunge, thil akikhukhum jouse kiphongdoh ding ahi, chule aguh'a umjouse jong mijouse koma kihetsah ding ahi.
For there is nothing covered, which will not be revealed, nor anything hidden, which will not be known.
3 Muthim'a nasei jouseu chu khovah a kija ding ahi, chule kot kikhakhum na a olcha nakiseipeh toujong chu inchunga mijouse jah'a kisamphong ding ahi! Gin Ding Koipen Ham?
For the things that you have spoken in darkness will be declared in the light. And what you have said in the ear in bedrooms will be proclaimed from the housetops.
4 “Ngailut umtah jol le gol te, natahsa that thei hochu kicha hih'un.” Hiche jou le chun nachungah ima abolthei tapouve.
So I say to you, my friends: Do not be fearful of those who kill the body, and afterwards have no more that they can do.
5 Ahin kichat ding koi ham naseipeh unge. Pathen kichauvin, aman nangho tha nathei le damun'a lelut nathei thilboltheina tha anei ahi. Henge, ama ahi kichat ding. (Geenna g1067)
But I will reveal to you whom you should fear. Fear him who, after he will have killed, has the power to cast into Hell. So I say to you: Fear him. (Geenna g1067)
6 “Vasah nga man ijat ham–paisa ni man ham?” Ahin Pathen in khat jeng jong asumil pon ahi.
Are not five sparrows sold for two small coins? And yet not one of these is forgotten in the sight of God.
7 Chuleh nalu'a na samjang ho jengjong aboncha kisimtoh soh ahitai. Hijeh chun kicha hih'un; nangma vasah honpi jouse sanga manlujo nahi.
But even the very hairs of your head have all been numbered. Therefore, do not be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows.
8 Kaseipeh nahiuve, koi hileh hiche leiset'a lhangphonga keima eiseidoh chan chu, Mihem Chapan jong Pathen Vantilte jaona'a aseidoh ding ahi.
But I say to you: Everyone who will have confessed me before men, the Son of man will also confess him before the Angels of God.
9 Amavang koi hileh hiche leiset'a eiseilep chan chu Pathen Vantilte masanga kiseilep diu ahi.
But everyone who will have denied me before men, he will be denied before the Angels of God.
10 Koihileh Mihem Chapa douna thusei chan chu kingaidam ding ahi, amavang koi hileh Lhagao Theng taitom'ah vang chu kingaidam louding ahi.
And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of man, it will be forgiven of him. But of him who will have blasphemed against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven.
11 “Chuleh kikhopna in'a vaipo hole thuneiho anga athu tan dinga nahin kai teng uleh, iti nakiven ding ham ahiloule ipi nasei ding thu ah lunggim hih un.
And when they will lead you to the synagogues, and to magistrates and authorities, do not choose to be worried about how or what you will answer, or about what you might say.
12 Ajeh chu Lhagao Theng chun apettah a seiding napeh diu ahi,” ati.
For the Holy Spirit will teach you, in the same hour, what you must say.”
13 Chuin koiham khat'in mipi lah'a kon chun ahin kouvin, “Houhil, kasopipa jah'a kapa nei le gou eikihoppi nadingin seiyin,” ati.
And someone from the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to share the inheritance with me.”
14 Yeshuan adonbut'in, “Jol, kon nangni kah'a thutan'a eipansah'a, hiti khati iti kagel lhah ding ham?” ati.
But he said to him, “Man, who has appointed me as judge or arbitrator over you?”
15 Chuin aman aseiben, “Chingtheiyun! Neipap kiloset kiti jouseah kivengun. Hinkho hi naneijat a kisim ahipoi,” ati.
So he said to them: “Be cautious and wary of all avarice. For a person’s life is not found in the abundance of the things that he possesses.”
16 Chuin aman thusim khat aseipeh tai: “Mihao khat hin loumun khat, alei phatah, ga hoitah tah sodoh aneiyin ahi.
Then he spoke to them using a comparison, saying: “The fertile land of a certain wealthy man produced crops.
17 Amapa achangin akihoulim in, ‘Ipi kabol ding hitam? Ka lousoh ga jouse koina ding mun la kanei pon,’” ati.
And he thought within himself, saying: ‘What should I do? For I have nowhere to gather together my crops.’
18 Chuin aman aseiyin, Kahetai! Kachangsal jouse phelhangting asanga lenjo cheh thahsah inge. Chutileh keiman ka chang le mim jouse kholkhomna ding dan ninglhingset in nei tange.
And he said: ‘This is what I will do. I will tear down my barns and build larger ones. And into these, I will gather all the things that have been grown for me, as well as my goods.
19 Chutengleh keima nomtah'a katouva keima le keiman hitia hi kasei ding ahi, “Kajol, nangman kumsottah a ding ninglhing set'a kikhol khom naneiye. Tun lung olmo hih in! nen lang, don'in lang, chule kipah in!” tinge ati.
And I will say to my soul: Soul, you have many goods, stored up for many years. Relax, eat, drink, and be cheerful.’
20 Ahivangin Pathen in amapa jah'a chun, “Mingol! Tujan ma ma'a nathi ding ahitai. Chuteng leh nanatoh ga jouse hi koi chang tantem?” ati.
But God said to him: ‘Foolish one, this very night they require your soul of you. To whom, then, will those things belong, which you have prepared?’
21 “Henge, lei gouthil bouseh kholkhom'a Pathen toh haosatah'a kiguijopna neilou mi chu angol ahi” ati.
So it is with him who stores up for himself, and is not wealthy with God.”
22 Chuin, aseijuite kom lang ngan Yeshuan aseitai, “Hiche jeh'a hi keiman nitin hinkho a dingin lunggim hih'un kati ahi”—neh le chah ninglhing set'a chule sil le chen lhingset'a kanei ding hinam tin.
And he said to his disciples: “And so I say to you: Do not choose to be anxious about your life, as to what you may eat, nor about your body, as to what you will wear.
23 Ajeh chu hinkho hi anneh ding sanga lujo, chule natahsa jong sille chen sanga lujo ahi.
Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing.
24 Va-ah ho khu veuvin, amahon tula atu pouvin, at la a-at pouvin ahiloule khol la akholkhom pouvin, ajeh chu Pathen in avahnai. Chule nangho vacha ho sanga ama dinga loupijo nahiuve!
Consider the ravens. For they neither sow nor reap; there is no storehouse or barn for them. And yet God pastures them. How much more are you, compared to them?
25 Nalunggim nau jousen nahinkho phat bihkhat ajopbe theiyem?
But which of you, by thinking, is able to add one cubit to his stature?
26 Chule lunggim nan imacha chutobang thil neocha jong alolhin sah theilouleh, thil lentah chunga jong lunggim chu ipi phachom ding ham?
Therefore, if you are not capable, in what is so little, why be anxious about the rest?
27 “Lily pah ho le akhan doh dan khu veuvin. Amahon na jong atong pouvin chule avon hou jong akisem thei pouvin, ahin, Solomon jeng jong, aloupina jouse a akivon chun amaho tobang lom'in ahoijou poi.
Consider the lilies, how they grow. They neither work nor weave. But I say to you, not even Solomon, in all his glory, was clothed like one of these.
28 Chuleh Pathen in pahcha ho tunia uma jing a meilhum sunga selut ding bon kidangtah'a akhohsah'a ahileh, aman nangma thonlouva nakhohsah teitei ding ahi. Ipi bol'a hibanga tahsan na neo hi naneiyu ham?”
Therefore, if God so clothes the grass, which is in the field today and thrown into the furnace tomorrow, how much more you, O little in faith?
29 “Chuleh ipi kaneh ding ham ipi kadon ding ham tin lungboi hih'un. Hiche ho thil'a chun lunggim hih'un.
And so, do not choose to inquire as to what you will eat, or what you will drink. And do not choose to be lifted up on high.
30 Hiche thil hohin vannoi pumpia atahsanlou ho lungsung alodim'in ahi, ahivangin Napauvin nangaichat changseu chu ahemasa jitai.
For all these things are sought by the Gentiles of the world. And your Father knows that you have need of these things.
31 Pathen lenggam chu thil jouse sangin hol'un, chule aman nangaichat chan'u napeh diu ahi.”
Yet truly, seek first the kingdom of God, and his justice, and all these things shall be added to you.
32 “Hijeh chun kicha hih'un, hon lhom ho, ajeh chu nangho lenggam peh ding hi napau dinga kipana lentah ahi.”
Do not be afraid, little flock; for it has pleased your Father to give you the kingdom.
33 “Nanei nagou ho joh'un lang angaicha ho peuvin. Hichun van'a gou nakhol peh dingu ahi! Chule van-gam a sumdip hon chultih aneipouvin chule atovang aum khapoi. Nagou khol chu bitkeiya umding ahi; guchan jong aguhmang theilou ding ahi chule nget'in jong asuhset thei lou ding ahi.”
Sell what you possess, and give alms. Make for yourselves purses that will not wear out, a treasure that will not fall short, in heaven, where no thief approaches, and no moth corrupts.
34 Nanei nagou umna'a chu nalung ngaichat jong aum ding ahi. Hetman Louva Yeshua Hung Kit Ding
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
35 “Natohna dingin kivontup san umun chule nathaomei vahjing'un;
Let your waists be girded, and let lamps be burning in your hands.
36 Na Pakai pa moupui golvah na'a kon ahung kile ding nanga bangin. Chutileh ahung lhun'a kot ahinsuh teng leh kot nahonpeh a nalutsah thei nadia phasadema naum ding ahi.
And let you yourselves be like men awaiting their lord, when he will return from the wedding; so that, when he arrives and knocks, they may open to him promptly.
37 Soh ho kiging jinga umho le ahung kile ding ngah jing ho chu kipaman kipediu ahi. Thutah kaseipeh nahiuve, amatah in amaho chu atousah ding, atai akikhi ding, amaho chu atou uva aneh laiyuva chu ajen ding ahi.
Blessed are those servants whom the Lord, when he returns, will find being vigilant. Amen I say to you, that he will gird himself and have them sit down to eat, while he, continuing on, will minister to them.
38 Ama jankim lah ahilou le khovah kon'a hung maithei ahi. Ahin, ahung pet a kiging jinga um sohte chu kipaman apehding ahiuve.”
And if he will return in the second watch, or if in the third watch, and if he will find them to be so: then blessed are those servants.
39 “Hiche hi hethem in, in-neipan itih phatchet'a gucha hung ding ham ti heleh, aman a-in chu veihonga aumsah lou ding ahi.
But know this: that if the father of the family knew at what hour the thief would arrive, he would certainly stand watch, and he would not permit his house to be broken into.
40 Nangjong kiging jinga naum jing ding ahi ijeh inem itile Mihem Chapa chu naginchat lou pettah uva hung ding ahi,” ati.
You also must be prepared. For the Son of man will return at an hour that you will not realize.”
41 Peter in adong in, “Pakai hiche thutekah chu keihoa ding bou hai mijousea ding ham?” ati.
Then Peter said to him, “Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or also to everyone?”
42 Chuin Pakaiyin adonbut in, “Soh kitah le lung limgeh chu apakai pan insung pumpi le sohdang ho chunga jong mopohna apeh'a avahsah ho chu ahi.
So the Lord said: “Who do you think is the faithful and prudent steward, whom his Lord has appointed over his family, in order to give them their measure of wheat in due time?
43 Apakai pa ahung kile a asohpan na phatah'a atoh ahung mu leh, kipaman umding ahi.”
Blessed is that servant if, when his Lord will return, he will find him acting in this manner.
44 Thutah kaseipeh nahiuve, hitobang soh chu apakai pan anei jouse chunga mopohna apehding ahi.
Truly I say to you, that he will appoint him over all that he possesses.
45 Ahinlah, iti tantem asohpa chun, “Kapakai pa hi tem'in hung ponte” tin gelhen lang, asohdang ho vo hen, neh nom ne hen, ju kham kham jeng taleh?
But if that servant will have said in his heart, ‘My Lord has made a delay in his return,’ and if he has begun to strike the men and women servants, and to eat and drink, and to be inebriated,
46 Apakai pachu seiphong masa lou leh ginchat umlou pettah in hungin tin, chuteng aman asohpa chu asat goi goi ding mikitah louho toh asolmang tha ding ahitai.
then the Lord of that servant will return on a day which he hoped not, and at an hour which he knew not. And he will separate him, and he will place his portion with that of the unfaithful.
47 “Chule soh khat apakai pa dei he'a, ahivanga kigongtup lou chule akihilchah na ho tongdoh lou chu, nasatah a bolgimna ato ding ahi.
And that servant, who knew the will of his Lord, and who did not prepare and did not act according to his will, will be beaten many times over.
48 Ahivanga ahelou khattou chun thilse abol leh, ama chu gihsa louva kigimbol ding ahi. Koiham khat chu tamtah akipeh le, ama a kona chu tamtah kile ngeh ding ahi; chuleh khattou chu mopohna tamtah akipeh le, asanga tamjo chu kingeh ding ahi.”
Yet he who did not know, and who acted in a way that deserves a beating, will be beaten fewer times. So then, of all to whom much has been given, much will be required. And of those to whom much has been entrusted, even more will be asked.
49 “Keima vannoi hi meiya tih dinga kahung ahi, chule akoudoh hitaleh katilheh jenge!
I have come to cast a fire upon the earth. And what should I desire, except that it may be kindled?
50 Keiman thoh hahsa tah baptize chanding kamakho'ah kaneiye chule hichu akimolso kah a kalung khamna iti san tam!
And I have a baptism, with which I am to be baptized. And how I am constrained, even until it may be accomplished!
51 Leiset a chamna hinpo dinga hunga nei gel'um? Ahipoi, keima miho kibung khensah dia hung'ah kahi!
Do you think that I have come to give peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but division.
52 Tua pat'a insung ho kikhentel diu ahitai, thum'in eijop uva, nin eidoudal ding–ahiloule nin eijop'a thum'in eidou ding ahi.
For from this time on, there will be five in one house: divided as three against two, and as two against three.
53 Mipa chu chapa douna'a chule chapa chu mipa douna a kibungkhen ding ahi; chanu douna minu chule minu douna'a chanu; chuleh ateh in mou douna chule mouvin ateh douna'a kikhenna um ding ahi” ati. Phat Kihei-Dan Hetna
A father will be divided against a son, and a son against his father; a mother against a daughter and a daughter against a mother; a mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.”
54 Chuin Yeshuan mihonpi lam aven aseiye, “Nanghon meibol lhumlam langa ahung umdoh phat le, nasei jiuvin, ‘go hung juding ahi’ natiuve. Chuleh nangho nadih uve.
And he also said to the crowds: “When you see a cloud rising from the setting of the sun, immediately you say, ‘A rain cloud is coming.’ And so it does.
55 Lhanglam hui ahung nun teng leh, naseijiuvin, ‘Tuni chu salheh ding ahi’ natiuvin, chule achuti ji'e.
And when a south wind is blowing, you say, ‘It will be hot.’ And so it is.
56 Nangho mingolho! nanghon leiset chunga van umje nasuto theiyun, ahin nanghon tuphat umdan naledoh thei pouve.”
You hypocrites! You discern the face of the heavens, and of the earth, yet how is it that you do not discern this time?
57 “Ipi jeh'a nangho dinga adih chu naki gellhah thei lou u ham?”
And why do you not, even among yourselves, judge what is just?
58 “Nangho thukitanna muna nahehse hou toh nache teng uleh, amun nalhun masang in kihoutoh pi ding gon. Achuti louleh thutan vaihompa masanga nahehse pan nakai ding, aman vaipopa henga napehdoh a, aman songkul'a nakhum ding ahi.
So, when you are going with your adversary to the ruler, while you are on the way, make an effort to be freed from him, lest perhaps he may lead you to the judge, and the judge may deliver you to the officer, and the officer may cast you into prison.
59 Chule hichu aso leh nangman achainapen sum geiya napeh doh masang sea itinama jong leh nakilhadoh louhel ding ahi,” ati.
I tell you, you will not depart from there, until you have paid the very last coin.”
