Mark 4
1 And again he began to teach by the sea; and a great multitude came together to him, so that he went into a ship, and sat in the sea: and the whole multitude was on the land near the sea.
Acunüng, Kalile tuili peia jah mthei be se, khyang khawjah a veia ngcun lawki he. Acunüng lawkia khyang he cun aktäa dämda u se, Jesuh mlawnga khana kai lü ngawki. Khyang avan tui kama tuinu ma na u lü, ngkhäm lawki he.
2 And he taught them many things in parables, and said to them in his teaching:
Jesuh naw msuimcäpnak he am hinkba khawjah a jah mthei,
3 Hear; Behold, the sower went forth to sow;
“Ngai ua, mhmüp mat üng khyang mat mci saw khaia citki.
4 and it came to pass, as he sowed, that some seed fell by the wayside, and the birds came and ate it up.
A saw k’um üng, mci avang lam khana kyakia kyase, kha he naw jawng law u lü, ami ei.
5 Other seed fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth: and it immediately sprung up, because it had no depth of earth.
Mci avang nglei am a danak bäk, lunga danaka kyaki. Nglei am thahkia kyase angxita pyo lawki.
6 And when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
Nghngi lut law lü, khaw ngling law se, a pya am saükia kyase, ng’yawngki.
7 And other seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it produced no fruit.
Mci avang nghling hmua kyaki, nghling saü law lü, yai se am vuipai thei.
8 And other seed fell in the good ground, and produced fruit that grew up and increased, and produced, one thirty, one sixty, and one a hundred.
Cunsepi, mci avang nglei kdaw üng kyaki, cawt law lü, saü law lü, avang thumkip, khyukip la aphyaa ngtheipai lawki,” a ti.
9 And he said: He that has ears to hear, let him hear.
Akbäihnaka Jesuh naw, “A ngjaknak vaia a nghnga taki naw ngja se,” a ti.
10 And when he was alone, those who were about him, with the twelve, asked him the meaning of the parable.
Jesuh amät a ve üng, xaleinghngih he la akce läk hngaki he naw a veia law u lü msuimcäpnaka suilam a jah mtheh vaia ami kthäh.
11 And he said to them: To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are without, all things are done in parables;
Jesuh naw, “Nangmia phäha ta, Pamhnama khawa mawng athukhlüng ksingnak vai ning jah peta kya ve, Cunsepi khyang kce hea phäha avan msuimcäpnak am pyena kyaki.
12 that they may surely see, and not perceive; and that they may surely hear, and not understand; lest they should turn to me, and their sins should be forgiven them.
Acunakyase, ‘Teng u lü pi, am hmu u, ngja u lü pi, am ksing u. Hmu ngja u lü Pamhnama veia ami nghlat be vai sü ta ani naw jah mhlät khai sü,” a ti.
13 And he said to them: Do you not understand this parable? And how then will you understand all parables?
Acunüng Jesuh naw, “Hina msuimcäpnak am nami ksingki aw? Acunüng ihawkba msuimcäpnak avan nami ksing thei kawm?
14 The sower sows the word.
Mciksaw naw Mhnama ngthu a saw.
15 These are they that received seed by the wayside, where the word is sown; and when they hear, Satan immediately comes and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts.
Acunüng, avang he cun lam kpema kyaki mci hea mäih lawki he, ngthu ami ngai la khawyam naw law lü ngthu cun a lawhei.
16 And these are they that, in like manner, received seed in stony places: who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy:
Khyang avang he cun lunga danaka kyaki mci hea mäih lawki he. Ngthu ami ngjak üng jekyainak am doeiki he.
17 and they have no root in themselves, but endure for a time; afterward, when affliction or persecution arises on account of the word, they immediately take offense.
Cunsepi, amimät üng apya am ve se, ivei am khäng. Acun käna thangkdaw phäha, mkhuimkhanaka pi kyase, khuikhanaka pi kyase, a pha law üng pyai beki he.
18 And these are they that received seed among thorns; who hear the word,
Khyang avang he cun nghling hmua sawa mci hea mäih lawki he. Acun he cun ngthu ngjaki he,
19 and the anxieties of this age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and desires for other things enter in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
cunsepi khawmdek cäicanak he, bawimangnak vai mnaiheinak la iyaw akce kce mnaiheinak he naw ngthu cun yai law u se, am vuipai thei. (aiōn g165)
20 And these are they that received seed on the good ground; who hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred.
Cunsepi khyang kce he cun nglei kdaw üng sawa mci hea mäih lawki he. Acun he cun ngthu ngja u lü doeiki he, acunüng avang thumkip, avang khyukip, avang aphya vuipai lawki he,” a ti.
21 And he said to them: Is a lamp brought in that it may be put under the measure, or under the divan? Is it not brought that it may be put on the lamp-stand?
Acuna thea Jesuh naw, “Mei kdäi u naw lawpüi lü kphya k’uma, am ani üng ihnaka kea thup khawiki aw? Angdangnaka vai khaia am ta khai aw?
22 For there is nothing hid that shall not be made known; nor has any thing been concealed, but that it may come into open view.
Ipi ä ngdang khaia thup cun mdana kya law lü, ipi ä ngphyäü khaia mjih cun phyeha kya law khai.
23 If any one has ears to hear, let him hear.
A ngjaknak vaia a nghnga awmki naw ngja se,” a ti.
24 And he said to them: Take heed how you hear; with what measure you measure, it shall be measured to you; and to you that hear, more shall be given;
Jesuh naw, “Nami ngjak cäi na ua! Khyang nami mtehnak am Mhnam naw ning jah mteh be khai, acuna kthaka pi ning jah mteh be khai.
25 for whoever has, to him shall be given; and whoever has not, even that which he has shall be taken from him.
Upi taki üng pet däm däma kya lü, upi am taki cun a takca pi yuh pet bea kya khai,” a ti.
26 And he said: So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should sow seed in the ground,
Jesuh naw, “Pamhnama khaw cun khyang mat mci a loa sawki am tängki.
27 and should sleep and rise, night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, he knows not how.
Mciksaw mthana ip lü mhmüpa tho lawki. Acun k’um üng mci cun pawk law lü ngbang lawki. Cunsepi ihawkba akya law am ksing.
28 For the earth, of its own accord, produces fruit, first the blade; then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
Nglei amät naw vuipaiei lawsak khawiki. Akcüka aphung, avui, acunüng avui üngka naw akcang ngdang law khawiki.
29 But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he sends forth the sickle, because the harvest is ready.
Avui a hmin law la, khyang naw cang ah kcünkia kyase, angxita ngvinca am atki,” a ti.
30 And he said: To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? Or, by what similitude shall we illustrate it?
Jesuh naw, “Pamhnama khaw cun i am mtäng vai? Msuimcäpnak i am mtumtäng vai?
31 It is like a grain of mustard, which, when it is sown in the ground, is less than all seeds that are in the ground;
Pamhnama khaw cun khyang mat naw khawmdek khana jaw säihki anca ui lo lü nglei üng a saw am tängki.
32 yet, when it is sown, it grows up, and becomes larger than all garden-plants, and sends out great branches, so that the birds of the air can roost under its shadow.
Cunsepi asäng ngsawk se, a cawt law üng loa sawngling avana kthaka ngbangbu law lü ngban mah law se kha he naw law u lü ami ngbu ami tuknak khawi,” a ti.
33 And with many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear.
Jesuh naw acunkba msuimcäpnak khawjah am ami ksing thei vaia ngthu a jah mtheh.
34 But without a parable he did not speak to them; but when alone, he explained all things to his disciples.
Msuimcäpnaka kaa khyang hea veia ngthu am pyen khawi. Cunsepi, axüisaw he amimät ami awmnaka avan a jah mtheh be khai.
35 And on the same day, when it was evening, he said to them: Let us go over to the opposite side.
Acuna mhmüp khaw a mü law üng, Jesuh naw axüisaw he üng, “Tuilia caye lama mi va pek vai u,” a ti.
36 And when they had sent the multitude away, they took him with them, as he was in the ship; and there were other little ships with him.
Acuna, khyang he akdäm jah yawk hüt u lü, Jesuh mlawng üng ngaw se ami cehpüi. Akce mlawngca he pi acunüng awmki he.
37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves dashed into the ship, so that it was now full.
Acunüng, khawkhi ksenu khi law se tuimvawn cun mlawng üng be law hlüki.
38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on the pillow. And they awoke him, and said to him: Teacher, carest thou not that we perish?
Jesuh cun ngkhumnak üng ngkhumei lü mlawnga hnu lama ip lü ve se axüisaw he naw, “Saja aw, mi thih vai hin am na cäinaki aw?” ti u lü ami mthawh.
39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea: Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
Jesuh naw tho law lü khawkhi kse üng, “Ngdüma!” ti lü a mtheh. Acunüng tuimvawn üng, “Pyaia” ti se avan ngdüm lawki he.
40 And he said to them: Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith?
Acunüng Jesuh naw axüisaw he a veia, “I vaia nami kyükyawk aihki ni? Ise jumnak am nami taki ni?” a ti.
41 And they were greatly afraid, and said one to another: Who, then, is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
Cunsepi kyü law ngen u lü, “Khawkhi la tuimvawn naw pi a mtheh ani ngjak hin ia khyang ni?” tia ngthehei kyuki he.
