Mark 4
1 Jisuh ni tuipui kongteng vah bout a cangkhai nah, tamihupui teh king a kamkhueng awh dawkvah, Jisuh teh long dawk a luen teh a tahung. Tamihupui teh a oung lah ao awh.
And again he began to teach by the seaside. And a large crowd was gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat in the sea, and sat down. And the whole crowd was on the land by the sea.
2 Hatnavah bangnuenae lahoi moi a cangkhai e teh,
And then he taught them many things in parables, and told them in his teaching,
3 Thai awh haw, cati kaheikung ni cati kahei hanlah a kamthaw.
"Listen. Look, the sower who went out to sow.
4 Cati a kahei navah, a tangawn teh lam dawkvah a bo dawkvah tavanaw ni koung a pâtu.
And it happened, as he sowed, some seed fell by the road, and the birds came and devoured it.
5 A tangawn teh talai a rapamnae koe lungcarawk um a bo dawkvah tang a paw eiteh,
And others fell on the rocky ground, where it had little soil, and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of soil.
6 A khongyang a payang hoeh dawkvah, kanî a tâco, khumbei a thoe toteh, a kamyai teh a ke.
And when the sun came up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
7 A tangawn teh pâkhing um a bo dawkvah, pâkhing ni a lawnglei teh a paw paw thai hoeh.
And others fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
8 A tangawn teh talai kahawi dawk a bo dawkvah, a paw teh, a roung dawkvah, alet 30, 60,100 totouh a pung.
And others fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing; and brought forth thirty times, and sixty times, and one hundred times."
9 Thainae hnâ ka tawn pueng ni thai naseh, telah a ti.
And he said, "Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear."
10 Jisuh ama dueng ao navah, a hnukkâbangnaw hlaikahni touh hoi alouke taminaw ni bangnuenae deingainae hah a pacei awh.
And when he was alone, those who were around him with the twelve asked him about the parables.
11 Jisuh ni nangmouh teh Cathut uknaeram hrolawk hah panuethainae na poe awh. Alawilae taminaw hane teh bangpueng hai bangnuenae lahoi a pâpho pouh.
And he said to them, "To you has been given the mystery of the Kingdom of God, but to those who are outside, all things are done in parables,
12 A lungkâthung awh teh yon ngaithoum lah ao awh hoeh nahanlah a hmu a ei nout awh hoeh, a thai a ei panuek awh hoeh.
that 'seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest perhaps they should turn and be forgiven.'"
13 Nangmouh ni hete bangnuenae patenghai na thai panuek awh hoehpawiteh, bangtelamaw bangnuenae pueng na thai panuek awh han.
And he said to them, "Do you not understand this parable? And how will you understand all of the parables?
14 Cati ka hei e tami ni Cathut lawk hah a kahei.
The farmer sows the word.
15 Cathut lawk lam dawk kabawt e tinae teh, a lawk a thai ei, Setan ni a tho teh a lungthung kahei pouh e Cathut lawk hah, tang a lawp ti a dei ngainae doeh.
And these are the ones by the road where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan comes, and takes away the word which has been sown in them.
16 Lungcarawk um kahei ti deingainae teh a lawk a thai navah, lunghawinae lahoi tang a dâw ei,
And these in a similar way are those who are sown on the rocky places, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy.
17 A lungthung a khongyang a payang hoeh dawkvah, Cathut lawk kecu dawk runae hoi rektapnae a kâhmo toteh a lung tang apout awh, tingainae doeh.
And they have no root in themselves, but are short-lived. Then, when oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble.
18 Pâkhing um cati kahei tie a deingainae teh Cathut lawk a thai eiteh,
And others are those who are sown among the thorns; these are the ones who have heard the word,
19 talaivan hno dawk lungpuennae, hnopai ni dumyennae hoi, alouke hnonaw noenae lungthin ni a ramuk dawkvah a paw paw thai awh hoeh tingainae doeh. (aiōn g165)
and the cares of the age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
20 Talai kahawi dawk cati kahei ti deingainae teh Cathut lawk a thai teh a dâw dawkvah, alet 30, 60, 100 totouh apung teh a paw a paw thai ti ngainae doeh.
And those which were sown on the good ground are those who hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times."
21 Hat hoiyah, hmaiim hah apinimaw tangthung hoi a ramuk boimaw. Ikhun rahim ouk a ta boimaw. Hmaiimkhok dawk hoi ouk paang nahoehmaw.
And he said to them, "Is the lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Is it not put on a stand?
22 A hmonae koe kaawm e pueng koung a kamnue han, ramuk lah kaawm e naw pueng koung kamawng han.
For there is nothing hidden, except that it should be made known; neither was anything made secret, but that it should come to light.
23 Thainae hnâ katawnnaw ni thai naseh.
If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear."
24 Hathnukkhu hoi Jisuh ni na thai e lawknaw kahawicalah kâhruetcuet awh. Ayâ na poe e patetlah nama ni bout na hmu awh han.
And he said to them, "Consider carefully what you hear. With whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you, and more will be given to you.
25 Ka tawn e tami teh bout poe sin lah ao han. Ka mathoe e tami teh a tawn e ca patenghai la pouh lah ao han telah a ti.
For whoever has, more will be given, and he who does not have, even that which he has will be taken away from him."
26 Jisuh ni Cathut uknaeram teh tami buet touh ni law dawk cati a kahei e hoi a kâvan.
And he said, "The Kingdom of God is like someone who scatters seed on the earth,
27 Ahni ni cati kahei hnukkhu karum khodai a i ao ei teh a kung a pâw teh a roung, hatei bangtelah hoi maw a roung tie teh panuek hoeh.
and he sleeps and rises night and day, and the seed springs up and grows; he doesn't know how.
28 Talai ni cati kapâw e a roung sak teh a paw a paw sak. Hmaloe vah akung, hahoi a vui, hahoi cakang a tâco sak.
The earth bears fruit, first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
29 Cang a hmin teh canga tue a pha toteh imkung ni uet laipalah karang poung lah tangkoun hoi ouk a a telah a dei.
But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he puts forth the sickle, because the harvest has come."
30 Jisuh ni Cathut uknaeram teh bangtelamaw ka kamnue sak han vai, bangpatet e bangnuenae hoi maw ka bangnue han vai.
And he said, "To what will we liken the Kingdom of God? Or with what parable will we use for it?
31 Hot teh antam mu hoi doeh a kâvan. Antam mu teh anhla munaw hlak kathounghnawn e lah ao ei, patue toteh,
It's like a mustard seed, which, when it is sown upon the soil, though it is less than all the seeds that are upon the soil,
32 Anhlakungnaw hlak a roung teh tavanaw ni a kang dawk tabu a tuk awh teh a tâhlip dawk a kâhat nahane totouh akangnaw kalen lah a cawn awh.
And when it is sown, grows up, and becomes greater than all the garden plants, and puts out large branches, so that the birds of the sky can lodge under its shadow."
33 Hot patet e bangnuenae hoi taminaw ni a thai panuek nahanelah, a cangkhai.
And with many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it.
34 Bangnuenae hno laipalah ahnimouh koevah cangkhai hoeh. Amamouh dueng ao awh navah a hnukkâbangnaw koe bangpuengpa a pâpho pouh.
And he did not speak to them without a parable; but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.
35 Hat hnin tangmin vah Jisuh ni namran lah cet a sei telah a hnukkâbangnaw koe atipouh.
And on that day, when evening had come, he said to them, "Let us go over to the other side."
36 Hatdawkvah a hnukkâbangnaw ni tamimaya a ceitakhai teh long thung sut kaawm e Jisuh hoi namran lah a cei awh. Alouke longnaw hai a kâbang awh.
And leaving the crowd, they took him with them, even as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.
37 Hatnavah tûilî a tho teh, tuicapa a thaw dawkvah long dawk tui muen akawi.
And a big wind storm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so much that the boat was already filled.
38 Jisuh teh long a mai koe lah, lahoung a lahoung teh muet a i. A hnukkâbangnaw ni a pâhlaw awh teh, saya maimouh due awh han toe hei, banglahai na pouk hoeh bo aw! atipouh awh.
And he himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion, and they woke him up, and told him, "Teacher, do you not care that we are dying?"
39 Hatnavah Jisuh ni a thaw teh, tûilî hoi tuicapa a yue, hatdawkvah tûilî hoi tuicapa teh a roum.
And he awoke, and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace. Be still." And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
40 Hat hnukkhu Bawipa ni bangkongmaw telah totouh na taki thai awh vaw. Bangkongmaw yuemnae na tawn awh hoeh vaw atipouh.
And he said to them, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?"
41 Ahnimouh ni thouk a taki awh teh, hete tami teh bangpatet e tami na mah aw, tûilî hoi tuipui ni hai a lawk a ngai pouh bo aw telah buet touh hoi buet touh a kâdei awh.
And they were greatly afraid, and said to one another, "Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?"
