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.
Meanwhile, when a multitude of many thousands had gathered together, so much so that they trampled on each other, he began to tell his disciples first of all, “Beware of the yeast 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.
But there is nothing covered up that will not be revealed, nor hidden that 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?
Therefore whatever you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light. What you have spoken in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed on the housetops.
4 “Ngailut umtah jol le gol te, natahsa that thei hochu kicha hih'un.” Hiche jou le chun nachungah ima abolthei tapouve.
“I tell you, my friends, don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that 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 warn you whom you should fear. Fear him who after he has killed, has power to cast into Gehenna. Yes, I tell you, fear him. (Geenna g1067)
6 “Vasah nga man ijat ham–paisa ni man ham?” Ahin Pathen in khat jeng jong asumil pon ahi.
“Aren’t five sparrows sold for two assaria coins? Not one of them is forgotten by 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 the very hairs of your head are all counted. Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value 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.
“I tell you, everyone who confesses me before men, the Son of Man will also confess before the angels of God;
9 Amavang koi hileh hiche leiset'a eiseilep chan chu Pathen Vantilte masanga kiseilep diu ahi.
but he who denies me in the presence of men will be denied in the presence of God’s angels.
10 Koihileh Mihem Chapa douna thusei chan chu kingaidam ding ahi, amavang koi hileh Lhagao Theng taitom'ah vang chu kingaidam louding ahi.
Everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but those who blaspheme against the Holy Spirit 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.
When they bring you before the synagogues, the rulers, and the authorities, don’t be anxious how or what you will answer or what you will say;
12 Ajeh chu Lhagao Theng chun apettah a seiding napeh diu ahi,” ati.
for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that 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.
One of the multitude said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide 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 made me a judge or an arbitrator over you?”
15 Chuin aman aseiben, “Chingtheiyun! Neipap kiloset kiti jouseah kivengun. Hinkho hi naneijat a kisim ahipoi,” ati.
He said to them, “Beware! Keep yourselves from covetousness, for a man’s life doesn’t consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses.”
16 Chuin aman thusim khat aseipeh tai: “Mihao khat hin loumun khat, alei phatah, ga hoitah tah sodoh aneiyin ahi.
He spoke a parable to them, saying, “The ground of a certain rich man produced abundantly.
17 Amapa achangin akihoulim in, ‘Ipi kabol ding hitam? Ka lousoh ga jouse koina ding mun la kanei pon,’” ati.
He reasoned within himself, saying, ‘What will I do, because I don’t have room to store 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.
He said, ‘This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and 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.
I will tell my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, and be merry.”’
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, ‘You foolish one, tonight your soul is required of you. The things which you have prepared—whose will they be?’
21 “Henge, lei gouthil bouseh kholkhom'a Pathen toh haosatah'a kiguijopna neilou mi chu angol ahi” ati.
So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich towards 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.
He said to his disciples, “Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life, what you will eat, nor yet for your body, 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: they don’t sow, they don’t reap, they have no warehouse or barn, and God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than birds!
25 Nalunggim nau jousen nahinkho phat bihkhat ajopbe theiyem?
Which of you by being anxious can add a cubit to his height?
26 Chule lunggim nan imacha chutobang thil neocha jong alolhin sah theilouleh, thil lentah chunga jong lunggim chu ipi phachom ding ham?
If then you aren’t able to do even the least things, why are you 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 don’t toil, neither do they spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed 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?”
But if this is how God clothes the grass in the field, which today exists and tomorrow is cast into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith?
29 “Chuleh ipi kaneh ding ham ipi kadon ding ham tin lungboi hih'un. Hiche ho thil'a chun lunggim hih'un.
“Don’t seek what you will eat or what you will drink; neither be anxious.
30 Hiche thil hohin vannoi pumpia atahsanlou ho lungsung alodim'in ahi, ahivangin Napauvin nangaichat changseu chu ahemasa jitai.
For the nations of the world seek after all of these things, but your Father knows that you need these things.
31 Pathen lenggam chu thil jouse sangin hol'un, chule aman nangaichat chan'u napeh diu ahi.”
But seek God’s Kingdom, and all these things will 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.”
“Don’t be afraid, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure 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 have and give gifts to the needy. Make for yourselves purses which don’t grow old, a treasure in the heavens that doesn’t fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys.
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 waist be dressed and your lamps burning.
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.
Be like men watching for their lord when he returns from the wedding feast, that when he comes and knocks, they may immediately open to him.
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 will find watching when he comes. Most certainly I tell you that he will dress himself, make them recline, and will come and serve 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.”
They will be blessed if he comes in the second or third watch and finds them so.
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 master of the house had known in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched and not allowed 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.
Therefore be ready also, for the Son of Man is coming in an hour that you don’t expect him.”
41 Peter in adong in, “Pakai hiche thutekah chu keihoa ding bou hai mijousea ding ham?” ati.
Peter said to him, “Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everybody?”
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.
The Lord said, “Who then is the faithful and wise steward, whom his lord will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the right times?
43 Apakai pa ahung kile a asohpan na phatah'a atoh ahung mu leh, kipaman umding ahi.”
Blessed is that servant whom his lord will find doing so when he comes.
44 Thutah kaseipeh nahiuve, hitobang soh chu apakai pan anei jouse chunga mopohna apehding ahi.
Truly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.
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 says in his heart, ‘My lord delays his coming,’ and begins to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and drink and to be drunken,
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 come in a day when he isn’t expecting him and in an hour that he doesn’t know, and will cut him in two, and place his portion with 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.
That servant who knew his lord’s will, and didn’t prepare nor do what he wanted, will be beaten with many stripes,
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.”
but he who didn’t know, and did things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few stripes. To whomever much is given, of him will much be required; and to whom much was entrusted, of him more will be asked.
49 “Keima vannoi hi meiya tih dinga kahung ahi, chule akoudoh hitaleh katilheh jenge!
“I came to throw fire on the earth. I wish it were already kindled.
50 Keiman thoh hahsa tah baptize chanding kamakho'ah kaneiye chule hichu akimolso kah a kalung khamna iti san tam!
But I have a baptism to be baptised with, and how distressed I am until it is 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 in the earth? I tell you, no, but rather 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 now on, there will be five in one house divided, three against two, and 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
They will be divided, father against son, and son against father; mother against daughter, and daughter against her mother; mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and 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.
He said to the multitudes also, “When you see a cloud rising from the west, immediately you say, ‘A shower is coming,’ and so it happens.
55 Lhanglam hui ahung nun teng leh, naseijiuvin, ‘Tuni chu salheh ding ahi’ natiuvin, chule achuti ji'e.
When a south wind blows, you say, ‘There will be a scorching heat,’ and it happens.
56 Nangho mingolho! nanghon leiset chunga van umje nasuto theiyun, ahin nanghon tuphat umdan naledoh thei pouve.”
You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky, but how is it that you don’t interpret this time?
57 “Ipi jeh'a nangho dinga adih chu naki gellhah thei lou u ham?”
“Why don’t you judge for yourselves what is right?
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.
For when you are going with your adversary before the magistrate, try diligently on the way to be released from him, lest perhaps he drag you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer throw 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 by no means get out of there until you have paid the very last penny.”
