Luk 20
1 Hahoi, hnin touh hnin teh Jisuh ni bawkim vah tami moikapap a cangkhai teh kamthang kahawi a dei lahun nah vaihma bawinaw, cakathutkungnaw hoi kacuenaw a tho awh teh,
One of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and publishing the good tidings, the chief priests, and the scribes, with the elders, came upon him,
2 hete hnosakthai nahanelah bangpatet e kâtawnnae maw na tawn. Apini maw kâtawnnae na poe dei haw, telah a ti awh.
saying, Tell us by what authority you do these things; or who is he that empowered you?
3 Jisuh ni a dei pouh e teh, lawk buet touh na pacei awh vai, nangmouh ni dei awh haw.
He answering, said to them, I also have a question to put to you. Tell me, then,
4 Jawhan ni baptisma poe thainae kâ a tawn e hah kalvan hoi e maw, tami koehoi e maw, dei awh haw, telah a pacei.
Was the commission which John had to immerse, from heaven, or from men?
5 Ahnimouh ni buet touh hoi buet touh a kâpan awh teh, bangtelamaw ti han. Kalvan hoi e tetpawiteh, hat boipawiteh bangkongmaw Jawhan na yuem awh hoeh telah a dei han. Tami koehoi e doeh telah tet pawiteh,
But they reasoned thus among themselves, If we say, From heaven, he will reply, Why, then, did you not believe him?
6 hivah kaawm e taminaw pueng ni Jawhan teh profet roeroe doeh telah a yuem awh dawkvah, ahnimouh ni maimanaw teh talung hoi na dêi awh han, telah ati awh.
And if we say, From men, all the people will stone us; for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
7 Hatdawkvah ahnimanaw ni, nâ hoi e maw tie ka panuek awh hoeh, telah a dei awh.
They therefore answered, that they could not tell whence.
8 Hahoi Jisuh ni, hat pawiteh kai ni hai bangpatetlae kâtawnnae hoi maw hete hno heh ka sak tie hah ka dei van mahoeh, telah atipouh.
Jesus replied, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
9 Hatnavah Jisuh ni taminaw koe bangnuenae lawk a dei pouh. Tami buet touh ni misur takha buet touh a tawn. Takhakatawkkungnaw koe a hlai sak teh, kahlong lah atueng moikasawlah a cei.
Then he spoke to the people this parable: A man planted a vineyard, and farmed it out, and having traveled, continued long abroad.
10 Misur paw khi tue a pha toteh, a hlai sak e naw koehoi misurpaw la hanelah, takhakatawkkungnaw koe a san buet touh a patoun. Hatei takhakatawkkungnaw ni a san hah a hem awh teh, kuthrawng lah a pâban awh.
The season being come, he sent a servant to the husbandmen, to receive of the produce of the vineyard; but they beat him, and sent him back empty.
11 Hahoi alouke a san buet touh bout a patoun navah, a hem awh teh, yeiraipo sak awh teh, kuthrawng lah bout a pâban awh.
Afterward, he sent another servant, whom they, having beaten, and used shamefully, also sent away empty.
12 Alouke a san hah bout a patoun navah, ka patawpoung lah a hem awh teh a pâlei awh.
He afterward dispatched a third to them. Him, likewise, they wounded and drove away.
13 Hatnavah takha katawnkung ni, bangtelamaw ka sak han. Ka pahren poung e ka capa ka patoun han, ahni teh a bari awh han doeh, telah a ti.
Then the proprietor of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; they will surely reverence him, when they see him.
14 Hatei, takhakatawkkungnaw niyah, a capa a hmu navah ahni teh râw ka coe hane nahoehmaw, tho awh, thet awh sei. Hat pawiteh doeh ahnie râw hah maimouh ni coe awh ti ati awh.
But when then husbandmen saw him, they reasoned thus among themselves, This is the heir, come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be our own.
15 Hatdawkvah takha katawnkung e capa hah a man awh, takha alawilah a pâlei awh teh a thei awh. Hottelah pawiteh, takha katawnkung ni bangtelamaw ati han.
And having thrust him out of the vineyard, they killed him. What, therefore, will the proprietor of the vineyard do to them?
16 Takhakatawnkung hah koung thet vaiteh, hote takha hah alouke takhakatawkkungnaw koe a poe han telah atipouh. Hote hah taminaw ni a thai navah, hottelah awm hanh naseh, ati awh.
He will come and destroy those husbandmen, and give the vineyard to others. And some of his hearers said, God forbid.
17 Jisuh ni ahnimanaw a khet teh, im kasakkung ni, a pahnawt e talung hah a takinlung lah bout ao tie Cakathoung dawk kaawm e lawk hah bangmaw a dei ngai, telah a pacei awh.
Jesus, looking on them, said, What, then, means that expression of scripture, "A stone which the builders rejected, is made the head of the corner.
18 Hote talung dawk ka bawt e pueng teh rekrek a kâbawng vaiteh hote talung ni a bosin e pueng teh vitpatit lah ao han, telah atipouh.
Whosoever shall fall upon that stone, shall be bruised; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will crush him to pieces"?
19 Hahoi teh vaihma bawinaw, cakathutkungnaw ni hote bangnuenae teh maimouh doeh na dei ngai nah tie a panue awh toteh, Jisuh man nahanelah kho a pouk awh. Hatei kamkhueng e tamihupui hah a taki awh.
At that time, the chief priests and the scribes, knowing that he had spoken this parable against them, would have laid hands on him, but feared the people.
20 Hatnavah Farasinaw ni Jisuh e lawk man pouh hanelah a tawng teh kho kaukkung kâtawnnae katawnnaw e kut dawk poe thai nahanelah, tamikalan lah kâsak e katuetnaw a patoun awh.
And they watched him, and set spies upon him, instructing them to personate conscientious men, and surprise him in his words, that they might deliver him to the power and authority of the procurator.
21 Hahoi, Jisuh hanlah, saya, atangcalah na cangkhai teh na dei tie ka panue awh. Hahoi apie minhmai hai na khen hoeh, hatei Cathut e lamthung lawkkatang hah na cangkhai toe.
These accosted him with this question, Rabbi, we know that you speak and teach uprightly, and that, without respect of persons, you faithfully recommend the way of God.
22 Hatdawkvah na dei pouh haw, Sizar koe tamuk poe e hah kaimae phung hoi a kâtaran ou, kâtaran hoeh ou telah a pacei awh.
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Cesar, or not?
23 Jisuh ni ahnimae huenghaionae hah a panue dawkvah nangmouh ni bangkongmaw kai na tanouk awh.
He perceiving their subtlety, answered,
24 Phoisa phek touh na patue haw, apie mei hoi min maw ka kamnuek telah a pacei navah, ahnimouh ni Rom siangpahrang e mei hoi min doeh atipouh awh.
Why would you entangle me? Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription has it? They answered, Cesar's.
25 Jisuh ni Rom siangpahrang e hno teh Rom siangpahrang poe awh. Cathut e hno teh Cathut poe awh, telah atipouh.
He replied, Render, therefore, to Cesar, that which is Cesar's, and to God, that which is God's.
26 Hottelah ahnimouh ni taminaw e hma lah a lawk yon a hmu thai awh hoeh dawkvah, kângairu lahoi lawkkamuem lah ao awh.
Thus they could not surprise him in his discourses before the people; wherefore, admiring his answer, they kept silence.
27 Duenae koehoi boutthawnae awm hoeh ka tet e Sadusinaw ni Jisuh koe a tho awh teh,
Afterward, some of the Sadducees, who deny a future state, came to him
28 Bawipa, tami buetbuet touh niyah ca tawn laipalah, a yu dout takhai pawiteh, a tami a thup hoeh nahanelah, a nawngha ni let awmkhai seh titeh Mosi ni a thut.
with this question: Rabbi, Moses has enjoined in his writings, that a man whose brother dies childless, outlived by his wife, shall marry the widow, and raise issue to his brother.
29 A hmaunawngha sari touh ao awh. A camin ni hmaloe a yu lah a la teh, Ca sak laipalah a due takhai.
Now there were seven brothers; the first of whom, having taken a wife, died childless;
30 A nawngha ni patuen a okhai teh ca sak laipalah bout a due takhai.
the second married the widow, and also died childless;
31 Hottelah, buet touh hnukkhu buet touh a due takhai awh teh, hmaunawngha sari touh ni ca sak awh laipalah, hote napui hah be a due takhai awh.
the third married her, as did likewise the rest; and all seven died, leaving no children.
32 A hnukteng vah hote napui hai a due van.
Last of all, the woman also died.
33 Hatdawkvah, boutthawnae tue a pha toteh, hote napui hah apie yu lah maw ao han. Hmaunawngha sari touh ni hote napui hah a yu lah a okhai awh toe telah a ti.
To which of them, therefore, will she be wife, at the resurrection; for she had been married to all the seven?
Jesus answering, said to them, The people of this world marry, and are given in marriage; (aiōn g165)
35 Hatei, a yungyoe e pang hane hoi duenae koehoi bout thawnae dawk kamcu e taminaw teh kâpaluen awh hoeh, kâhâ awh hoeh toe. (aiōn g165)
but, among them who shall be honored to share in the resurrection, and the other world, there will be neither marrying nor giving in marriage; (aiōn g165)
36 Ahnimouh teh kalvantaminaw patetlah ao awh teh dout thai awh hoeh toe. Ahnimouh teh duenae koehoi bout thaw lah ao toung dawkvah Cathut e ca lah ao awh.
for they can not die any more; because, like the angels, they are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
37 Hothloilah Mosi ni kadout tangcoung e taminaw hringnae dawk bout a thaw awh tie kacaicalah a dei. Hmai ka kang e buruk kong a dei nah Bawipa teh Abraham Cathut, Isak Cathut, Jakop Cathut lah ao a ti.
But that the dead are raised, even Moses has suggested, calling the Lord who appeared in the bush, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
38 Cathut teh kadoutnaw e Cathut na hoeh. Kahringnaw e Cathut doeh. Hote taminaw pueng ni Cathut dawk kahring awh telah atipouh.
Now he is not a God of the dead, but of the living; for they are all alive to him.
39 Cakathutkungnaw tami tangawn ni, Bawipa, nange na dei e lawk teh atang doeh telah a ti.
Then some of the scribes said to him, Rabbi, you have spoken well.
40 Hahoi ahni teh lawk bout pacei ngam awh hoeh.
After that, they did not venture to ask him any more questions.
41 Jisuh ni a thaw teh, bangtelamaw Messiah teh Devit capa lah ao han, telah na ti awh.
And he said to them, Why is it affirmed that the Messiah must be a son of David?
42 Bangkongtetpawiteh Devit roeroe ni Cathut ni ka Bawipa teh, Na tarannaw hah na khok toungnae lah ka ta hoehroukrak kaie aranglah tahung telah,
Yet David himself says, in the book of the Psalms, "The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand,
43 ka Bawipa ni Sam cauk dawkvah ati na nahoehmaw.
till I make thy foes thy footstool."
44 Hottelah Devit ni Khrih hah Bawipa telah kaw pawiteh bangtelamaw Khrih teh ahnie a capa lah ao thai han, telah a pacei awh.
As David thus calls him his Lord, how can he be David's son?
45 Rangpui ni a thai navah Bawipa ni a hnukkâbangnaw koe bout a dei pouh e teh,
Then, in the audience of all the people, he said to his disciples,
46 Cakathutkungnaw heh roun awh. Ahnimouh teh angkidung kho hoi kâhlai hane a ngai awh. Hnopai yonae hmuen koe tami pueng ni bari e hah a ngai awh. Sinakok dawk tahungnae a rasangnae hah a lungpataw awh teh, pawitonae koevah bari kaawm e hmuen kahawi a ngai awh.
Beware of the scribes, who love to walk in robes, and affect salutations in public places, and the principal seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost places at feasts;
47 Lahmainunaw e im hah a lawp awh teh, a yon kamnuek vaih titeh, kasawpoung lah a ratoum awh. Ahnimouh teh hoe kalen e yonphukhangnae a kâhmo awh han atipouh.
who devour the families of widows, and make long prayers for a disguise. These shall suffer the severest punishment.
