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,
On one of the days while he was teaching the people in the Temple and preaching the gospel, there came up the priest and the Scribes with the elders.
2 hete hnosakthai nahanelah bangpatet e kâtawnnae maw na tawn. Apini maw kâtawnnae na poe dei haw, telah a ti awh.
They spoke to him saying. "Tell us by what authority you are doing these things? Who is it that gave you this authority?"
3 Jisuh ni a dei pouh e teh, lawk buet touh na pacei awh vai, nangmouh ni dei awh haw.
"I will also ask you a question," he replied.
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 John’s baptism from heaven or from man?"
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,
So they reasoned among themselves. "If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask us, ‘Why did you not believe in 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 man,’ all the people will stone us, for they were persuaded that Johnwas a prophet."
7 Hatdawkvah ahnimanaw ni, nâ hoi e maw tie ka panuek awh hoeh, telah a dei awh.
So they answered that they did not know whence it was.
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.
"Nor will I tell you," Jesus answered, "by whose 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 began to tell the people this parable. "There was a man who planted a vineyard, and let it out to vine-dressers, and went to another country for a long time.
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.
"At harvest-time he sent a slave to the vine-dressers, to ask them to give him a share of the crop; but the vine-dresser beat him and sent him away empty-handed.
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.
"Then he sent another slave; and him also they flogged and handled shamefully and sent him away empty-handed.
12 Alouke a san hah bout a patoun navah, ka patawpoung lah a hem awh teh a pâlei awh.
"Then he sent yet a third, and him to they wounded and threw him out.
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 master of the vineyard said. "‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved Son; it may be that they will reverence 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 the vine-dressers saw him, they reasoned together, saying. ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him so that the inheritance may be ours.’
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.
"So they turned him out of the vineyard and killed him. "What will the master 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 vine-dressers, and will give the vineyard to others."
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.
He looked at them and said. "Then what does this scripture mean. "The stone which the builders rejected, the same was 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.
"Every one who falls on that stone will be broken in pieces; but whoever it falls upon will be scattered as dust."
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 this the Scribes and the high priests were seeking to arrest him; only they were afraid of the people. For they perceived that he had referred to them in this parable.
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.
So they watched him, and sent spies who pretended to be honest men, in order to seize on his speech, and to deliver him up to authority and jurisdiction of the governor.
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.
So they put a question to him saying. "Rabbi, we know that you speak and teach what is right, and that you do not regard any man’s person, but teach the way of God honestly.
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 tribute to Caesar or not?"
23 Jisuh ni ahnimae huenghaionae hah a panue dawkvah nangmouh ni bangkongmaw kai na tanouk awh.
But he perceived their knavery and 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.
"Show me a shilling. Whose image and superscription does it bear?" "Caesar’s," they replied.
25 Jisuh ni Rom siangpahrang e hno teh Rom siangpahrang poe awh. Cathut e hno teh Cathut poe awh, telah atipouh.
"Then give to Caesar what belongs to him," he said, "to God give what 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.
So they could not lay hold of his sayings before the people; and marveling at his answer, they held their peace.
27 Duenae koehoi boutthawnae awm hoeh ka tet e Sadusinaw ni Jisuh koe a tho awh teh,
Next came some of the Sadducees who deny that there is resurrection, and they asked 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.
"Teacher, Moses wrote a law for us that if a man’s brother should die, but leave no children, his brother should take up his wife and raise up his children for 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 took a wife and died childless,
30 A nawngha ni patuen a okhai teh ca sak laipalah bout a due takhai.
"and the second and third took her,
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.
"and likewise all the seven, but left no children when they died.
32 A hnukteng vah hote napui hai a due van.
"Last of all the woman died too.
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.
"In the resurrection whose wife shall she be? For they all seven had her as wife."
"People in this world marry and are given in marriage," said Jesus, (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 those who are counted worthy to reach that world and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given 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 indeed they cannot die any more; they are equal to the angels, and through being sons of the resurrection are sons of God.
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 clearly implied in the passage about the Bush, when he calls the Lord. "The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, 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 the God of the dead, but of the living; for to him all are alive.’
39 Cakathutkungnaw tami tangawn ni, Bawipa, nange na dei e lawk teh atang doeh telah a ti.
Then some of the Scribes said, "Teacher, that was nobly said,"
40 Hahoi ahni teh lawk bout pacei ngam awh hoeh.
for they no longer dared to ask him any questions.
41 Jisuh ni a thaw teh, bangtelamaw Messiah teh Devit capa lah ao han, telah na ti awh.
"How is it," he asked them, "that they say that Christ is David’s son?
42 Bangkongtetpawiteh Devit roeroe ni Cathut ni ka Bawipa teh, Na tarannaw hah na khok toungnae lah ka ta hoehroukrak kaie aranglah tahung telah,
"for David himself say’s 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.
Until I make thy enemies the footstool at thy feet.
44 Hottelah Devit ni Khrih hah Bawipa telah kaw pawiteh bangtelamaw Khrih teh ahnie a capa lah ao thai han, telah a pacei awh.
"David therefore himself calls him ‘Lord,’ and how can he be his son?"
45 Rangpui ni a thai navah Bawipa ni a hnukkâbangnaw koe bout a dei pouh e teh,
Then, in the hearing 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 like to walk about in long robes, and dote on salutations in the marketplaces, and on securing the front seats in the synagogues and the best places at banquets;
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.
"but they devour widows’ houses and for a pretense make long prayers. These shall receive severer condemnation."
