Luk 12
1 Hatnavah, taminaw touklek thai hoeh lah a kamkhueng awh teh, a kâ katin kâ ka awi awh. Jisuh ni a hnukkâbangnaw koe a dei pouh e teh tami kahawi lah kâsaknae Farasinaw e ton hmaloe pasuek lah roun awh.
Meanwhile, when a crowd 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 Ramuk lah kaawm e naw pueng a kamawng han. Hro lah kaawm e naw pueng a kamphawng han.
But there is nothing covered up, that will not be revealed, nor hidden, that will not be known.
3 A hmonae koe nangmouh ni na dei e naw pueng angnae dawk a thai awh han. Nangmouh ni cawngket vah arulahoi hnâ koe lawknaw na dei e pueng lemphu hoi pathang lah o han.
Therefore whatever you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light. What you have spoken in the ear in the inner chambers will be proclaimed on the housetops.
4 Ka huinaw, nangmouh koe ka dei e teh, tak ka thet ni teh alouke hno bout ka thet thai hoeh e taket awh hanh.
"I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
5 Bangpatet e tami maw na taki han tetpawiteh tak ka thet thai ni teh hell dawk ka tâkhawng thai e hah taket awh. Atangcalah na dei pouh awh. Hote tami hah taket awh. (Geenna g1067)
But I will warn you whom you should fear. Fear him, who after he has killed, has power to cast into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him. (Geenna g1067)
6 Pusu panga touh e hah tangka kahni touh hoi na ran awh nahoehmaw. Hote pusu buet touh boehai Cathut ni pahnim hoeh.
"Are not five sparrows sold for two assaria coins? Not one of them is forgotten by God.
7 Nangmae na sam hai abuemlahoi koung a touk. Hatdawkvah taket awh hanh. Nangmanaw teh pusunaw hlak aphu hoe na o awh.
But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Therefore do not be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
8 Kai ni na dei pouh e teh apihai thoseh, taminaw e hmalah kai na kampangkhai. Cathut e kalvantami e hmalah tami Capa ni hote tami teh ka kampangkhai van han.
"I tell you, everyone who confesses me before people, him will the Son of Man also confess before the angels of God;
9 Apihai thoseh, taminaw e hmalah kai na hnoun, Cathut e kalvantami e hmalah kai ni ka hnoun van han.
but the one who denies me in the presence of people will be denied in the presence of the angels of God.
10 Tami Capa pahni hoi ka dudam e tami teh ngaithoum lah ao thai rah. Kathoung Muitha ka dudam e tami teh nâtuek hai ngaithoumnae hmawt thai mahoeh toe.
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 Sinakok dawk hai thoseh, ka ukkungnaw hoi kâ katawnnaw koe hai thoseh, nangmanaw hah na hrawi awh navah, bangmaw ka dei han tie kângai awh hanh.
When they bring you before the synagogues, the rulers, and the authorities, do not be anxious how or what you will answer, or what you will say;
12 Bangkongtetpawiteh, bangtelamaw ka dei han tie hah atueng pha torei teh Kathoung Muitha ni na cangkhai han telah atipouh.
for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that same hour what you must say."
13 Tamimaya thung dawk e tami buet touh ni yah, Bawipa ka hmau ni râw kai hai na rei hanelah dei pouh haw telah atipouh navah,
And someone in the crowd said to him, "Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me."
14 Bawipa ni apinimaw nangmanaw râw rei hanelah kai na rawi a vaw telah a pacei.
But he said to him, "Man, who made me a judge or an arbitrator over you?"
15 Hathnukkhu hoi hounlounnae hah kâhruetcuet nateh roun awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hnopai tawn nakunghai hnopai dawk hringnae awmhoeh telah ti pouh.
He said to them, "Beware. Keep yourselves from all covetousness, for a man's life does not consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses."
16 Bangnuenae lahoi bout a dei pouh e teh, ka tangreng e tami buet touh ni a paw moikapap ka tâcawt e talai kahawi buet touh a tawn.
He spoke a parable to them, saying, "The ground of a certain rich man brought forth abundantly.
17 Hote tangreng ni, cakang ka ta nahan hmuen awmhoeh toe, bangtelamaw ka ti han toung telah a lung thung a pouk.
He reasoned within himself, saying, 'What will I do, because I do not have room to store my crops?'
18 Ka tâsongnaw ka raphoe vaiteh tâsong kalenpoung lah ka sak hnukkhu cakang hoi hno kahawinaw teh hote hmuen dawk ka pâtung han.
He said, 'This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods.
19 Ka muitha hanelah, nang ni kum moi kasawlah na hno hane hnopainaw koung ka pâtung toe. Duem kâhat lawih, cat net nateh nawm lawih telah ka ti pouh awh han.
I will tell my soul, "Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, be merry."'
20 Telah a pouk lahun navah Cathut ni tamipathu atu tangduem, nange muitha oun ka lat pawiteh, hnopai na kuem e naw apinimaw a pang han vaw telah tangreng koe atipouh.
"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 Hot patetvanlah ma hanelah hnopai ka pâtung ni teh Cathut hmalah ka mathoe e tami teh hote tangreng bawi hoi doeh a kâvan telah a ti.
So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God."
22 Hnukkâbangnaw koe bout a dei pouh e teh, hatdawkvah nangmouh ni bangtelamaw ka canei han telah hring nahanelah ngaihri awh hanh. Bangtelamaw ka khohna han telah na tak hanelah ngaihri awh hanh.
He said to his disciples, "Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious for your life, what you will eat, nor yet for your body, what you will wear.
23 Rawca hlak hringnae aphu awm hoeh na maw. Khohna hlak na tak heh phu awm hoeh na maw.
Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing.
24 Vonganaw khenhaw! Hote tavanaw ni cati hai patûe awh hoeh. Cang hai a awh hoeh. A pâtung nahane capainaw hai tawn awh hoeh. Hatei Cathut ni doeh koung a kawkhik. Nangmanaw teh hote tavanaw hlak aphu moi na o awh nahoehmaw.
Consider the ravens: they do not sow, they do not reap, they have no warehouse or barn, and God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than birds.
25 Apini maw a ngaihri laihoi amae hringnae dong touh a pasaw thai han maw.
Which of you by being anxious can add a cubit to his height?
26 Telah kathoengpounge hnoca pateng na sak thai awh hoehpawiteh alouke hnonaw dawk bangkongmaw na ngaihri
If then you are not able to do even the least things, why are you anxious about the rest?
27 Kahrawngum e apeikungnaw bangtelah hoi maw a roung awh, tie khenhaw. Thaw hai tawk awh hoeh, hnicu hai kawng awh hoeh. Hateiteh Solomon siangpahrang e bawilennae ni hote apeikung buet touh boehai phat hoeh.
Consider the lilies, how they grow. They do not toil, neither do they spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
28 Yuemnae koe lah tha kayounnaw atu kahring ni teh tangtho takhuen koe ka phat e kahrawng e pho pateng Cathut ni hottelah a khohnat sak pawiteh, hot hlak nangmanaw teh na khohnat sak mahoeh maw.
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 Hatdawkvah bangtelamaw ka canei awh han tie pouk awh hanh. Na lung hai puen sak awh hanh.
Do not seek what you will eat or what you will drink; neither be anxious.
30 Hote hnonaw teh talaivan miphun pueng ni ouk a tawng e doeh. Hote hnonaw, nangmouh ni na panki e hah nangmae na Pa ni a panue.
For the nations of the world seek after all of these things, but your Father knows that you need these things.
31 Nangmouh teh Cathut uknaeram ma hah tawng awh. Hahoi hote hnonaw teh na thap pouh awh han.
But seek his Kingdom, and these things will be added to you.
32 Tuhunaw, taket awh hanh. Nangmae na Pa ni nangmanaw koe ram na poe hane a ngai.
Do not be afraid, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom.
33 Nangmae hnopainaw yawt awh nateh mathoenaw hah poe awh. Ka pawn thai hoeh e yawngya namamouh hanelah sak awh. Tamru ni a paruhoehnae koe, ahri ni a raphoehoehnae koe kalvan kho vah, ka pout thai hoeh e râw kuem awh.
Sell that which you have, and give gifts to the needy. Make for yourselves purses which do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches, neither moth destroys.
34 Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmae râw onae koe nangmae lungthin pouknae hai poe ao han.
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
35 Taisawm kacaklah kâyeng nateh hmaiim sut paang awh.
"Let your waist be girded and your lamps burning.
36 Yuvâ kâpaluennae pawi koehoi a bawipa a tho toteh, tho takhawng navah tang paawng pouh thai nahanelah sut ka ring e san patetlah awm awh.
Be like people watching for their lord, when he returns from the marriage feast; that, when he comes and knocks, they may immediately open to him.
37 Bawipa bout a tho toteh, kâhruetcuet laihoi a ring tie bawipa ni a hmu e san teh a yawhawi. Kai ni lawkkatang na dei pouh e teh, a bawipa ni taisawm a kâyeng teh a sannaw a tahung sak teh, ama ni rawca a paca han.
Blessed are those servants, whom the lord will find watching when he comes. Truly I tell you, that he will dress himself, and make them recline, and will come and serve them.
38 Apâhni e tueng, hoi apâthum e tueng nah Bawipa a tho nah hottelah ka ring e sannaw hah hmawt pawiteh, ahnimouh teh a yawhawi awh.
And if he comes in the second watch, or even in the third, and finds them so, blessed are they.
39 Imkung ni tamru a tho nahane atueng panuek pawiteh ama im a muk thai hoeh na hanelah a ring han tie hah nangmouh ni na panue awh.
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 have allowed his house to be broken into.
40 Hatdawkvah nangmouh ni coungkacoe lah ring awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh nangmanaw ni na poukhoehnae atueng dawk tami Capa teh a tho han telah atipouh.
Therefore be ready also, for the Son of Man is coming in an hour that you do not expect him."
41 Piter ni Bawipa hete bangnuenae heh kaimouh hane dueng maw na dei, taminaw pueng hanelah maw na dei telah a pacei.
And Peter said, "Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everyone?"
42 Jisuh ni imkung ni a imthungnaw hanlah atueng pha toteh canei ka rei hanelah a rawi e tami yuemkamcu e hoi a lungkaang niteh, ka kuepcing e san teh apimaw.
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 time?
43 Bawipa bout a tho navah hottelah kaawm e san teh a yawhawi.
Blessed is that servant whom his lord will find doing so when he comes.
44 Lawkkatang na dei pouh e teh bawi ni amae hnopai a tawn e naw pueng a san koe a kuem sak han.
Truly I tell you, that he will set him over all that he has.
45 Hateiteh, hote san ni Bawipa tho hnai mahoeh telah a pouk teh amae a san huinaw napui tongpanaw hoi a kâhem awh teh a canei awh teh a parui awh.
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 drunk,
46 Hote san ni a poukhoehnae hnin, a panuehoehnae tueng dawk Bawipa tho pawiteh hote san teh puenghoi yonphu a khang vaiteh yuemkamcu hoeh e taminaw hoi cungtalah ao sak han.
then the lord of that servant will come in a day when he is not expecting him, and in an hour that he does not know, and will cut him in two, and place his portion with the unfaithful.
47 Ama e a bawipa ngainae a panue nahlangva vah, kâhruetcuet lah kaawm hoeh e san teh avai moikapap hem lah ao han.
That servant, who knew his lord's will, and did not prepare, nor do what he wanted, will be beaten with many stripes,
48 Hatei, ka panuek hoeh e teh younca doeh hem khai han. Moikapap poe e ni moikapap a patho han. Moikapap kuem sak e koe moikapap hei lah ao han.
but he who did not 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 Talai van hmai kak sak han doeh ka tho. Hmai ka kang tangcoung e lah o han ka ngainae hoe ao.
"I came to throw fire on the earth. I wish it were already kindled.
50 Hatei, ka coe hane baptisma buet touh ao rah. Hote Baptisma ka hmu hoehroukrak banghloimaw ka lungrei a thai.
But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished.
51 Talai dawk roumnae poe hanelah kai teh ka tho telah na pouk awh maw. Hottelah nahoeh. Buet touh hoi buet touh kâkapek sak hanelah doeh ka tho telah a ti.
Do you think that I have come to give peace in the earth? I tell you, no, but rather division.
52 Bangtelamaw tetpawiteh, atu hoi teh tami panga touh kaawm e im dawkvah, kathum touh ni kahni touh e a taran vaiteh, kahni touh ni kathum touh e hah a taran han.
For from now on, there will be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.
53 A na pa ni a capa, a capa ni a napa, a manu ni a canu, a canu ni a manu, a mani ni a langa, a langa ni a mani a taran vaiteh a kâkapek awh han.
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 Tamimaya koe bout a dei pouh e teh nangmouh ni kanîloum lah tâmai a tho e na hmu awh navah khorak han doeh telah na ti awh. Na dei awh e patetlah a rak.
He said to the crowds also, "When you see a cloud rising from the west, immediately you say, 'A shower is coming,' and so it happens.
55 Aka lahoi kahlî tho e na hmu navah khumbei a thoe han doeh na ti awh. Na dei awh e patetlah bokheiyah.
When a south wind blows, you say, 'There will be a scorching heat,' and it happens.
56 Tamikahawi lah ka kâsaknaw nangmouh ni talai hoi kalvanlae mitnoutnae na kapek awh teh na panue thai awh. Bangkongmaw a tue na kapekkaboe thai awh hoeh vaw.
Hypocrites. You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky, but why do you not know how to interpret this time?
57 Hothloilah bangkongmaw katang e hno hah namamouh lungpouk na panue thai awh hoeh vaw.
Why do you not judge for yourselves what is right?
58 Nang na ka toe e hoi lawkcengkung koe reirei na cei navah, lam vah ahni hoi hnâbonae na sak thai nahanelah panki awh. Telah na sak hoehpawiteh ahni ni nang teh lawkcengkung bawi koe na hrawi vaiteh lawkcengkung ni karingkungnaw kut dawk na poe vaiteh karingkungnaw ni thongim na pabo han.
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 Tangka pueng koung na patho hoehroukrak thongim thung hoi na tâcawt mahoeh telah kai ni ka dei.
I tell you, you will by no means get out of there, until you have paid the very last penny."
