Matthew 16
1 And the Pharisees and Sadducees came to tempt him, and asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
Pharise avang ja Sadukee law u lü Jesuh ami mhnütnak vaia Pamhnam naw ning ksingki ti a ngsingnak vaia, müncankse jah mhnuha” ti lü täkie.
2 But he answered and said to them: When it is evening, you say, Fair weather; for the sky is red.
Jesuh naw jah msang lü, “Khaw kyak law hlü üng, ‘Khankhaw mliki khawngawi ta khaw sen hlü ve’ nami ti khawiki.”
3 And in the morning, A storm to-day; for the sky is red and lowering. Hypocrites! you know how to judge of the face of the sky; but you can not judge of the signs of the times.
Ngawilama, “Khaw ngmei lü anghmüp law üng, tuhngawi ta khaw ah hlü ve,” nami ti khawiki. Khawa sen vai ja a ak vai cun khankhaw teng lü nami ksing kyawkie. Cunüngpi akcünmka üng sängeikia müncanksee ta am ksing khawh uki.
4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeks for a sign: and no sign shall be given it but the sign of Jonah the prophet. And he left them and departed.
“Tuh kän khyang he ihlawka se lü mtuihmlehkie ni. Nangmi naw müncankse nami täkie aw? Jonaha müncanksea thea i käh ning jah mhnuh vai” ti lü a jah ceh tak.
5 And his disciples came to the other side, and had forgotten to take bread.
Acunüng, axüisaw he tuilia cayea ami law üng, muk law vai ami mhnih.
6 And Jesus said to them: Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Jesuh naw, “Pharise he ja Sadukeea nghngen nami jah cäieinak vai,” a ti.
7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying: It is because we took no bread.
Animäte naw ngai u lü, “Ahin hin muk am mi lawpüia phäha kya ngaiki,” ami ti.
8 And Jesus perceiving it, said to them: O you of little faith! why are you reasoning among yourselves because you took no bread?
Jesuh naw ami pyen ksing lü, “Jumeinak ngcekia khyang he aw, i nami sumkyamkie ni. Ise muk am nami taka phäh vaia nami ngaikie ni?
9 Do you not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
Muk mhma pacawng thawng mhmaa phäh ka bo cen am nami sümkie aw? Cä ikän ja nami msap law? Am nami ksing hamkie aw?
10 Nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
Muk khyüh khyang thawng kphyü naw ei u se, cä ikän hläiki ti am nami sümkie aw?
11 How is it that you do not understand, that I did not speak of bread when I commanded you to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
“Eia mawng ka ning jah mthehki am ni, ise am nami ksing u ni? Pharise he ja Sadukeea ngneikse nami cäieinak vaia ka ning jah mthehki ni,” a ti.
12 Then they understood that he did not bid them beware of the leaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
Acunüng muk üng ami kcaw nghngen a pyen am ni, Pharise he ja Sadukeea jah mtheimthangnak ami cäieinak vaia a jah mtheh tia ami ksing.
13 When Jesus came into the regions of Cæsarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying: Who do men say that I, the Son of man, am?
Jesuh Kesari Philipih mlüh pei cit lü acuia axüisaw he üng, “Khyang he naw Khyanga Capa hin u ami pyen ni,” ti lü a jah kthäh.
14 They replied: Some say that thou art John the Immerser; others, Elijah; others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.
“Amsah naw Baptican Johan, amsah naw Elijah, amsah naw Jeramih, am ani üng sahma mat mat va ni khai ti ve u,” ami ti.
15 He said to them: But who say you that I am?
Jesuh naw, “Nangmi naw mä ua jah nami na ngaih?” a ti.
16 Simon Peter answered and said: Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
Sihmon Pita naw, “Nang cun Khritaw, xüngseiki Pamhnama Capa ni,” a ti.
17 And Jesus answered and said to him: Blessed are you, Simon, son of Jonah; for flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
Jesuh naw msang lü“Johana ca Sihmon, na jo daw ve. Isetiüng ta, ahin hin khyanga ning mtheh am ni, khana ka Pa naw a ning mtheh ni.”
18 And I say to you, That you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church: and the gates of hades shall not prevail against it. (Hadēs g86)
Ka ning mthehki, Pita aw nang lung ni, ahina lunga khana ka sangcim ka mdüih khai, thihnak naw pi käh näng khai ni. (Hadēs g86)
19 And I will give to you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you shall bind on earth, shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you shall loose on earth, shall be loosed in heaven.
Khankhaw Pe tawhe ka ning pe khai, aipi khawmdek khana am na mhlät naküt cun khankhawa pi mhläta am kya, ai naküt pi khawmdek khana na mhlät cun khankhawa pi mhläta kya khai,” a ti.
20 Then he charged his disciples to tell no one that he was the Christ.
Acunüng axüisaw he üng Khritaw a ninak u üng pi käh ami mtheh vaia a jah mtheh.
21 From that time Jesus began to tell his disciples plainly, that he must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders, and the chief priests, and the scribes, and be put to death, and be raised again the third day.
Acunüng tünei lü Jesuh naw “Jerusalema ka cit khai, axüe, ktaiyü he ja thumksingea mkhuimkhanak ka khamei khai. Na hnim khaie, cunüngpi amhnüp kthum üng ka tho be khai” ti lü axüisaw he üng a jah mtheh.
22 And Peter took him and began to rebuke him, saying: Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be to thee.
Pita naw akcea khü lü, “Bawipa aw, acukba käh kya khai, na khana acukba käh thawn yah khai,” ti lü Jesuh a pyen.
23 But he turned and said to Peter: Get behind me, adversary; you are a snare to me: for you are not thinking of the things of God; but of the things of men.
Jesuh naw nghlat law lü Pita üng, “Khawyam aw, ka peia käh vea, nang hin ka kyukngtängnak vaia na kyaki ni. Isetiakyaküng, na ngaihnak hin Mhnam üngka naw lawki am ni, khyang üngka naw lawki ni,” a ti.
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples: If any one determines to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Jesuh naw axüisaw he üng, “Nangmi üngka mat naw ka hnu läk khaia a bü üng a hlükaw naküt hawih lü, amäta kutlamktung kawt lü na läk law se.”
25 For whoever will save his life, shall lose it. But whoever will lose his life for my sake, shall find it.
Na sak küinak khaia na bü üng sak am yahki, cunüngpi keia phäha na sak tawn khaia na bü üng ta angsäi xünnak na yah khai,” a ti.
26 For what is a man profited, if he gain the whole world, but lose his own life? Or, what will a man give as the ransom of his life?
Khyang naw khawmdeknu avan ka na lü, a ngmüimkhya xünnak am a yah üng i am ni a thawnei be thei kawm?
27 For the Son of man will come in the glory of his Father, with his angels; and then he will reward every one according to his deeds.
Khyanga Capa, a pa hlüngtainak ja a khankhawngsä he am law be hnühki, khyang naküt cun khut a pawha kba jah kheng khai.
28 Verily I say to you, There are some standing here that shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
Akcanga ka ning jah mthehki, “Ahin üng awmki he avang naw am thih ham u lü, Khyanga Capa Sangpuxanga kba law be se hmuh khaie,” a ti.
