Luke 20
1 Nikhat Yeshuan mipi thu ahil'a Kipana Thupha houin'a aseiphong laiyin, thempu pipui ho, hou danthu hil ho, chule upa ho cheng ahengah ahungun.
AND it came to pass, on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and scribes with the elders came upon him,
2 “Ipi thuneina noiya nangman hiche hohi nabol ham? Kon thaneina napeh ham?” tin ahung dong uve.
and spake to him, saying, Tell us by what authority thou doest these things or who is he that giveth thee this authority?
3 “Ken thudoh khat nanei masauvinge” tin adonbut in,
Then he answering said to them, I also will ask you one question; and resolve me:
4 “Twilutsah John thaneina chu van'a kon ham ahilouleh mihem a kon ham?” tin adongtai.
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?
5 Amaho akihouvun, “Van'a kon ahi tileu hen, ibol'a John natahsan lou u ham eiti kit diu.
And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we reply, From heaven; he will say, Wherefore then did ye not believe him?
6 Ahin iham tin mihem a kon ahi tileu hen, mipin songa eise kit diu, ajehchu John chu themgao ahi tia apom'u ahi” akitiuvin ahi.
But if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us: for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
7 Hijeh chun achainakeiyin kahepouve tin ahin donbut tauve.
And they answered, We know not from whence.
8 Chuin Yeshuan adonbut in, “Achutileh kenjong ipi thuneina noiya kabol ham ti naseipeh pouvinge,” ati. Lengpi-Lei Le Alei Lhouho Thulem
And Jesus said to them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
9 Tun Yeshuan mipi lam angakit in hiche thusim hi aseipeh e: Mikhat hin lengpilei abol in, aloulhou miho komah apedoh in, gamdang khat ah kumsottah tham dingin achetai.
Then he began to speak to the people this parable: A certain man planted a vineyard, and delivered it to husbandmen, and went abroad for a long while.
10 Lengpi ga khoptup phat alhin in, asohte khat ama chanding lan asol'e. Ahin loulhou ho chun sohpa chu ahin bolseuvin, avouvin, khutgoh keovin ahin lesol tauve.
And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that they might give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat, and sent him away empty.
11 Hijeh chun lou neipan soh dang khat asol kit in, ahivangin amahon ahinsujum kit un, avouvin, khutgoh keovin ahin lesol kit tauve.
And he again sent another servant: and him also they beat, and treating him with indignity, sent him away empty.
12 Athumna pa asolkit in, chule ama jong chu ahin mavouvin adelmang tauve.
And he sent yet a third: and him they also wounded, and cast out.
13 “Ipi kabol ding hitam?” tin louneipa akihoulim in ahi. “Kahetai! Keiman kachapa kasahlut tah hi sol'inge. Tahbeh in jana hinpe nauvinte” ati.
Then said the master of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: probably when they see him, they will shew him respect.
14 Ahinlah, aloulhou hon achapa amu phat un, amaho akihou som'un, “Agoulo ding pa ahunge, thatdoh utin agoulo ding hi eiho chang tauhite!” akitiuve.
But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be our own.
15 Hijeh chun ama chu lengpilei pam langah akaidoh un athat tauve. “Lengpilei neipa chun amaho chungah ipi bol'in te tia nangaitouvam?” tin Yeshuan ahin dongin,
So casting him out of the vineyard, they slew him. What then will the master of the vineyard do with these men?
16 “Naseipeh unge–ama hungin tin loulhou ho chu athadoh a lengpilei chu midang asan sah ding ahitai” ati. “Iti khoh hitam chutobang thil aso jeng ding chu,” atiuvin athusei jaho chun ahin donbut uve.
He will come and destroy these husbandmen, and give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said God forbid.
17 Yeshuan amaho chu aven aseitai, “Achutileh, Pathen Lekhabun ipi ati naham? Insa hon apaidoh u song chu Inning songpin apangtai,”
Then he looked on them, and said, What is this then which is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
18 “Hiche songpia kipal jouse chu ahal hal'a keh ding, chule achunga lhu chu ipi hijong leh chip ding ahi” ati.
Every one who falleth upon this stone shall be broken to pieces; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
19 Hou danthuhil ho le thempu pipuihon Yeshua chu kintah a matding adeilheh un ahi ajeh chu athusim seichu amaho kiseina ahi ahin kihetdoh u ahitai–amaho chu loulhou agilou hochu hiuvah ahi. Ahivangin mipi ho lethuh na chu akichauvin ahi.
And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him at that time; and were afraid of the people: for they knew that he had spoken this parable against them.
20 Phat kilemchang vepum'in, alamkai houvin avelhi le ding miphalhem asol uve. Yeshuan seikhel khat neihen Rome gamvaipo komah amat nadingin kipedoh le ti agon u ahi.
And watching him, they sent men they had suborned, who pretended that they were righteous persons, in order to lay hold of some word of his, that they might deliver him to the power and authority of the governor.
21 Amahon “Houhil, Nangman adih chu nahil'a nasei ahi chule midang lunggel in nasuhboi joulou ahi keihon kaheuve.”
And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou speakest and teachest rightly, and respectest no man’s person, but teachest the way of God in truth:
22 “Tun neiseipeh un–Caesar henga kai pehding hi dih hai dihlou ham?” tin adong tauve.
Is it lawful for us to pay tribute to Caesar, or not?
23 Aman alungthim bol'u ahichu ahen aseitai,
Then he, aware of their crafty design, said unto them, Why tempt ye me?
24 “Rome te sumpum khat neivetsah'un. Koi lim le thucheng kijih ham achunga chu?” tin adongtai. Amahon adonbut un, “Caesar a ahi,” atiuve.
Shew me a denarius. Whose image and inscription hath it? And they answering said, Caesar’s.
25 Aman asei kit in, “Aphai ahileh, Caesar a chu Caesar peuvin lang Pathen a chu Pathen peuvin,” ati.
Then said he to them, Pay therefore to Caesar the things which are Caesar’s, and to God the things which are God’s.
26 Chuti chun amahon mipi masanga athu seikhel'a kipal sah ding atiu chu ajou tapouve. Chusang chun, amahon athu donbut hochu kidang asauvin, athipchet tauve.
And they were unable to lay hold of a single expression of his before the people: and marvelling at his answer, they were silenced.
27 Chuin Yeshua chu Sadducee–hou lamkai, thokitna aumpoi tihon kimupi din ahin naiyun ahi.
Then certain of the Sadducees, who contend that there is no resurrection, asked him,
28 Hiche thudoh hi adongun ahi: “Houhil, Mosen dan khat eipeuvin, mikhat chu athia ajinu adalhah'a chaneilou ahileh, asopipan hiche meithai chu akichenpi ding, cha aneipi ding hichun asopipa min apoh ding ahi.
saying, Master, Moses wrote for us, If a man’s brother die, having a wife, and he die childless, that his brother should take the wife, and raise up seed for his brother.
29 Aphai, tun tekahnan ucha pasal sagi aume. A'upen ajineiyin cha neilouvin athitai.
Now there were seven brothers: and the first taking a wife, died childless.
30 Hijeh chun ani napan akichenpin, ama jong athitai.
And the second taking the wife, he also died childless.
31 Chuin athumna pan akichenpi kit in ahi. Hiti hin asagiuvin achelhan abon'uva chaneilou ahitauve.
Then the third took her; and also all the seven in like manner: and left no children, and died.
32 Achainan numeinu jong athi tai.
And last of all died also the woman.
33 Hijeh chun neiseipeh un, thokitna'a chu koi ji a pang ding ham? Ajeh chu asagiuva chu akichenpi cheh u anahi!”
In the resurrection therefore whose wife of them shall she be? for the seven had her to wife.
And Jesus in reply said to them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: (aiōn g165)
35 Ahin, ahung lhung ding khang'ah, athilah a kona thoudoh dinga lom ho chu akicheng tapouvin chule chen jong akichensah tapouve. (aiōn g165)
but they who are counted worthy to attain to that world, and the resurrection of the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: (aiōn g165)
36 Chule amaho thikit talou diu, hitia chu amaho van'a Vantilte tobang hidiu ahitai. Amaho Pathen chate ahitauvin chule thoukit chate ahitauve.
neither can they die any more: for they are like the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
37 “Ahin tun, mithi thoukit mong ding hinam ti thudol ah”—Mose jengin jong nanglah meikong thudol asut chun avetsah in ahi. Abraham, Isaac, le Jacob thijou phat sottah jou nungin, Pakai chu Abraham Pathen, Isaac Pathen, Jacob Pathen tia akou ahi.
Now that the dead are raised, even Moses intimated at the bush, when he called the Lord, “the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.”
38 “Hijeh a chu ama chu ahingho Pathen ahin, athiho a hilou ahi, ajeh chu amaho abonchauva ama'a hingah ahitauve.”
Now God is not the God of the dead, but of the living: for all live with him.
39 Chukom mun'a ding, hou danthu hil ho phabep khat chun, “Nasei hoiye, houhil” atiuve.
Then some of the scribes addressing him said, Master, admirably hast thou spoken!
40 Chule koiman thudoh adong ngam tapouvin ahi.
And after that they durst not put another question to him.
41 Chuin Yeshuan thudoh toh thon hiche hi aseipeh kit e, “Ipi jeh a Messiah chu David chapa kiti ding ham?”
Then he spake to them: How say they that the Messiah is the son of David?
42 Ajeh chu David amatah in jong Labu'a anajihlut ahi: “Pakai in ka Pakai jah'a, Kajet lam'a kijana mun'ah touvin,”
Yet David himself, in the book of Psalms, saith, “The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit down at my right hand,
43 Namelmate kasuh nem a, Nakengto chotpha'a kakoi masang sen, ati.
until I put thine enemies for a footstool of thy feet.”
44 “David in Messiah chu Pakai, tia akou leh, Messiah chu iti David chapa hithei ding ham?” ati.
David then calleth him Lord, and how then is he his son?
45 Chuin mihonpi jah dingin, aseijuite kom langah akiheiyin aseitai,
And whilst all the people were hearkening, he said to his disciples,
46 “Hiche hou danthu hil hoa kon hin kichih theiyun! Ajeh chu amahon vonhoi tahtah kivon a kailhang lah dunga min chibai aboh diu adeiyun, chule kikhopna in le golvah na mun ho ah touna mun thupi lai lai aholjiuve.
Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk about in trailing robes, and love salutations in the public places, and the principal seats in the synagogues, and the most honourable couch at suppers;
47 Ahin, amahon jahcha louhel in meithai ho anei agou uva kona lheplhah ding agel uvin, chule kilhagao misah tah bangin taona sottah tah japi lah'a amang jiuvin ahi; hiche jeh'a hi amaho hatah a bolgimna changding ahiuve,” ati. Meithainu Sumto
who devour the houses of widows, and for a pretext make long prayers: these shall receive a more abundant punishment.
