Luke 12
1 In the meantime, a crowd of many thousands had gathered, so that they were trampling one another. Jesus began to speak first to His disciples: “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
Bijaat haajaat mina loong lomthok rum taha eno, ejap nakmui nep ih rumta, eno Jisu ih jaakhoh heliphante loong asuh liita, “Naririh et ban sok an Pharisi loong to ih naktoom thet haat han—ngah ih neng lonoi asuh liitang.
2 There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, and nothing hidden that will not be made known.
Tumjaat hoppat cho ah erah daapcho ih hoon ah, erah damdoh jaatrep husah tiit loong ah dongjat et ah.
3 What you have spoken in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the housetops.
Erah raangtaan ih marah sen ih laamang ni baat han erah rangwuung nah japchaat ah, erah damdoh marah sen ih ngiija nokmong ni hubaat han erah nok rangkhoh nawa ih riingbaat ah.
4 I tell you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more.
Ngah ih baat rumhala, nga joonte loong, sen marah ih hansi laklak tek haatte ra lacho theng jaat hoh ethih tumjih takah jen etka.
5 But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear the One who, after you have been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear Him! (Geenna g1067)
Ngah ih noisok rumha o ra choojih rah ah: Rangte ra cho an, etek lini, Heh di juuba soolam nah haat wan suh chaan jeela. Nga jeng ah tuungmaang an, esiit heh juuba sen choojih ah! (Geenna g1067)
6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God.
Wosiksak banga rah phaanyi di tanih kasangka? Wosiksak esiit taan uh Rangte ih tabeehaatka.
7 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
Sen khoroon ah botseh rookwet cho. Erah raangtaan ih nakcho an; sen ah wosiksak hantek thaknang ih uh thaangchaan!
8 I tell you, everyone who confesses Me before men, the Son of Man will also confess him before the angels of God.
“Ngah ih amiisak ih baat rumhala, o mina ih noksong dung nah neng ah nga mina et dokbaat rum ah, Mina Sah eh uh Rangte rangsah loong ngathong nah neng suh emamah ih reekoh rum ah.
9 But whoever denies Me before men will be denied before the angels of God.
Enoothong o mina ih nokwah dung nah thaaju hang, Mina Sah eh uh emamah Rangte rangsah loong ngathong nah thaaju rum ah.
10 And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
“O mina ih Mina Sah ah thetbaat abah ejen biin anaan et ah, enoothong marah ih Esa Chiiala tiit thetbaat ha abah biin anaan tachoka.
11 When you are brought before synagogues, rulers, and authorities, do not worry about how to defend yourselves or what to say.
“Neng ih Jehudi rangsoomnok nah adoleh kobonor nyi hadaang pante loong ngathong nah phate suh siitwan hanbah, sen lapaatja theng senteewah ah mamet pangjih ah adoleh sen tumjih jengjih asuh ah.
12 For at that time the Holy Spirit will teach you what you should say.”
Tumeah Esa Chiiala ih erah tokdoh an tumjih jengjih ah heh ih nyoot han.”
13 Someone in the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”
Midung ni mih wasiit ih Jisu suh baatta, “Nyootte, seng phoh suh baat uh seng wah ih thiinhaatta nyamka rah toom phe kohang.”
14 But Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed Me judge or executor between you?”
Jisu ih ngaakbaatta, “Nga joonwah, ngah suh mih rikri nyia setnyi suh soophoh nyamka ah pheekot theng ih chaan o ih kot kotahang koh?”
15 And He said to them, “Watch out! Guard yourselves against every form of greed, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”
Eno heh ih erah tiit ah loongtang suh wakbaat rumta, “Sen teeteewah ah naririh ih ban sok an sen ah jaatrep doh maamok nyamnyook jan oh; tumeah mina tumthan nyamte wah taat ang abah uh, ami roidong ah heh nyamka nawa ih tajen hoonka.”
16 Then He told them a parable: “The ground of a certain rich man produced an abundance.
Eno Jisu ih arah tiitthaak tiit ah baat rumta: “Ehak di changteng wah wasiit angta heh di cham seetheng phek hantek angta.
17 So he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, since I have nowhere to store my crops?’
Heh ih thunta, ‘Ngah di cham lomthiin theng tajeeka. Ngah ih tumjih et ang doh se ah?
18 Then he said, ‘This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and will build bigger ones, and there I will store up all my grain and my goods.
Ngah ih amet ang,’ heh teeteewah suh liita; ‘ngah ih nga pung ah thaak haat angno ena elong we et huk hoon ang, erah doh nga cham nyia jaat hoh hukkhaak loong anep jen lomthiin ang.
19 Then I will say to myself, “You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take it easy. Eat, drink, and be merry!”’
Eno ngah ih nga teewah suh li ang, Khangraangse wah! Andi jaatrep hukkhaak paang rookwih raangtaan ih jeela. Roidong amah ba hanih, jok oh, phak oh, eno roidong doh tenroon ih tong oh!’
20 But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be required of you. Then who will own what you have accumulated?’
Enoothong Rangte ih heh suh liita, ‘Thungko wah an! Niikja an roidong ah ethoon ete; eno nyamka nyi hukkhaak loong ah an raangtaan ih lomthiin hu loong ah o choh theng ah?”
21 This is how it will be for anyone who stores up treasure for himself but is not rich toward God.”
Eno Jisu ih thoonbaatta, “Marah ih heh nyamka loong taat lomthiin ha rah Rangte jiinko ni heh changteng tah angka.”
22 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat, or about your body, what you will wear.
Eno Jisu ih heliphante loong suh baatta, “Erah raangtaan ih ngah ih baat rumhala ethingtong raangtaan ih phaksat suh nak sootsaam an adoleh sen sak nah kap theng nyuh akhat suh nak sootsaam an.
23 For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes.
Roidong ah phaksat nang ih uh elongthoon, erah damdi sak ah nyuh akhat nang ih uh elongthoon.
24 Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storehouse or barn; yet God feeds them. How much more valuable you are than the birds!
Wokhah loong ah sokthaak an: neng ih cham uh tawenka adoleh cham uh takhanka; nengdi cham lomthiin theng pung uh tajeeka; neng ah Rangte ih dung ha! Sen ah tang woh nang ih thaangchaan!
25 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
Erah suh sootsaam anno amasah taan roiloh ejen tong tam ih an?
26 So if you cannot do such a small thing, why do you worry about the rest?
Sen ih erah likhiik ehinsah ah lajen phanlan kanbah, jaat hoh raangtaan ih tang tume thaam sootsaam lan?
27 Consider how the lilies grow: They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory was adorned like one of these.
Sok an woma popoong loong hakla rah ah; neng moot ni uh takaka adoleh neng ih neng raangtaan ih nyuh uh tawaatka. Enoothong ngah ih baat rumhala Solomon luungwang di heh nyamka erah than ang adi botseh uh arah woma popoong loong jaaseela likhiik henyuh hekhat ah tajaaseeka.
28 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith!
Erah woma naam suh nyuh akhat kotte rah ah Rangte, naam loong ah chiinyah bah eje enoothong rangkhah emat eah, we nah matkhaam ah. Erah ang abah heh ih sen suh nyuh akhat tanih jen koran? Sen laalom abah amasah boh ah!
29 And do not be concerned about what you will eat or drink. Do not worry about it.
“Erah raangtaan ih sen nak thungjoong an, ejok, ephak mamang ah eah.
30 For the Gentiles of the world strive after all these things, and your Father knows that you need them.
(Tumeah arah mongrep adi Rangte lajatte mina loong ih bah Saarookwih jok aphak ah raang ih ju sootsaamla.) Sen wah ih jat et ha sen suh erah loong ejamjih ih eah.
31 But seek His kingdom, and these things will be added unto you.
Erah nang ih bah, Rangte heh Hasong raangtaan ih thong sootsaam anbah, eno erah loong abah heh ih laajam kojan.
32 Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father is pleased to give you the kingdom.
“Echo nak ih an, sen saapsah loong ah, tumeah sen Wah eroon ela eno sen suh Hasong ah ekot ehan.
33 Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide yourselves with purses that will not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys.
Sen hukkhaak loong ah thoontang sang anno erah ngun ah changthih loong suh kokaat an. Sen ih lathet theng ngun khaak ah kap anno rangmong nah nyamte ang raangtaan ih lomthiin an, erah nah nyamka rah babah uh ene tah ih hoonka, tumeah erah ni ehuh tami nopka, erah damdoh ram eh uh taphakka.
34 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Sen tenthun ah marah di sen nyamka ah erah nah ang ah.
35 Be dressed for service and keep your lamps burning.
“Banthootho ih tong an tumjih thok ha bah uh, nyuh akhat ban kapcho nyia weetook ban took cho ah,
36 Then you will be like servants waiting for their master to return from the wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks, they can open the door for him at once.
laksuh ih neng changte wah kuhoon theng nawa ngaakwang eha ih kaban sok arah likhiik ah. Heh ah wang ano kaasak ah rengdok, erah damdam neng ih kaasak ah laanban daap ruh et ah.
37 Blessed are those servants whom the master finds on watch when he returns. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve and will have them recline at the table, and he himself will come and wait on them.
Tumthan tenroonjih ah erah laksuh loong ah neng changte wah ngaakwang tokdi motseng nyi banthootho ih japtup wang ano ah! Ngah ih baat rumhala, heh ih heh samsongnuh ah khookthiin ano, neng ah tongthuk rum ah, eno heh ih ban sok rum ah.
38 Even if he comes in the second or third watch of the night and finds them alert, those servants will be blessed.
Tumthan tenroonjih ah heh ih neng ah banthootho ih tong rum arah japtup ano ah, mottom di nyia mottom lini taat wang adi nep ah!
39 But understand this: If the homeowner had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into.
Sen ih jat ehan nok changte ih ehuh wang saapoot ah jatta bah, heh ih ehuh asuh heh nok tajap long thuk thengta.
40 You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you do not expect.”
Erah raang ih, sen uh, banthootho ih tong an, tumeah mina Sah rah uh sen reenah sen ih labantho kan pootdoh mok thok ha.”
41 “Lord,” said Peter, “are You addressing this parable to us, or to everyone else as well?”
Pitar ih liita, “Teesu, erah tiitthaak tiit ah seng raangtaan suh elang tam eah, tama warep mina raangtaan suh baat hu?”
42 And the Lord answered, “Who then is the faithful and wise manager, whom the master puts in charge of his servants to give them their portion at the proper time?
Teesu ih ngaakbaatta, “Erah ang abah, laksuh hanpiite nyia maakwah ah o ang ah? Heh changte wah ih mootkaat phanlansiitte o hoon ah erah wah ah laangja, heh nok nep heh suh phanlan siit thuk ah erah damdoh laksuh wahoh loong suh neng chotheng phak asat kot saapoot erah warah ih phanlan ah.
43 Blessed is that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns.
Tumthan tenroon ang ah erah laksuh rah ah, heh changte wah ih nok nah wang adoh heh pakna reeraang ah japtup wang aradoh ah!
44 Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.
Elang eah, ngah ih baat rumhala, changte wah ih heh laksuh asuh jaatrep nyamka ban sok baat ah.
45 But suppose that servant says in his heart, ‘My master will be a long time in coming,’ and he begins to beat the menservants and maidservants, and to eat and drink and get drunk.
Enoothong erah laksuh rah ih nga changte wah ngaakwang eliin ela ih li ano heh ih laksuh ehoh loong ah minuh miwah thoontang riimbuh, eno jokjok phakphak ih tong, kham adoh mok eabah,
46 The master of that servant will come on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not anticipate. Then he will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the unbelievers.
saasiit changte wah ah heh laksuh ih labansokka nyia lajatka sa doh ngaakwang ah. Eno changte wah ih heh ah jopjop ih dook ano heh jeng lachaatte loong chamtheng adoh cham thuk ah.
47 That servant who knows his master’s will but does not get ready or follow his instructions will be beaten with many blows.
“Marah laksuh ih heh changte wah ih heh suh tumjih reetheng baat ha ah jatcho di, laban re thang ih tong abah, erah laksuh ah rapne ih chamnaang thuk ah.
48 But the one who unknowingly does things worthy of punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and from him who has been entrusted with much, even more will be demanded.
Enoothong marah laksuh ih heh changte wah ih tumjih jamha erah lajat thang ih thet reela, erah mih asuh amasah ju chamthuk ah. Ehan o suh kota erah jiin nawa ehan ju jam ah; ehan tokkhodi ehan o suh kotta erah jiin nawa emamah et jam ah.
49 I have come to ignite a fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!
“Ngah ih hatoh ah we ih rook suh ra halang, eno erah ejen luung ela ih thunhang!
50 But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!
Ngah ih lakngah ni nga juungtemjih jeela, eno erah loong ah maang thoonthoon ngah mathan ih moongsaamte anglang!
51 Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but division.
Sen ih ngah suh hatoh nah semroongroong ang thuk raaha ih tammok thun tahe? Tah angka, semroongroong tah angka, epheehoom thong ang ah.
52 From now on, five in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three.
Aadowa ih changka siit ni mih banga angte ah ephe eah, ejom ah enyi damdoh miksuk mui ah enyi ah ejom damdoh ih miksuk mui ah.
53 They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.”
Hewah loong ah neng sah damdoh miksuh mui ah, heh sah loong ah neng wah damdoh; heh nuh loong ah neng sah minusah damdoh miksuk mui ah, neng sah ah neng nuh damdoh, henuh loong ah neng nyam damdoh miksuh mui ah, neng nyam ah neng hopnuh damdoh miksuk mui ah.”
54 Then Jesus said to the crowds, “As soon as you see a cloud rising in the west, you say, ‘A shower is coming,’ and that is what happens.
Jisu ih miloong asuh wakbaatta, “Sen ih jiingmuung ah saanop ko ih sok damdam laanjeng ruh elan rangphaatte angla eah eno amiimi ih phaat.
55 And when the south wind blows, you say, ‘It will be hot,’ and it is.
Erah damdi sen ih juungmeh ko nawa pong ih mot hanbah, sen ih liihan rangmi angte eno amiimiisak ih rang ah mi.
56 You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and sky. Why don’t you know how to interpret the present time?
Lonoite loong! Sen ih rang ahah ko ih sok anno rangmi rangphaat kemban jat han; erah ang abah, sen ih aahaangwa saapoot ah mamah ladan jat ehan?
57 And why don’t you judge for yourselves what is right?
“Sen ih sen teewah ah epun ih re suh mamah lami dande et han?
58 Make every effort to reconcile with your adversary while you are on your way to the magistrate. Otherwise, he may drag you off to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and the officer may throw you into prison.
O ih bah uh sen thet ah jat ano hootthe jun ih mat hoon nok nah siitwanjih mok ang abah, sen ih mat hoon nok maangjap doh changrook ah mathan jen ang ah, esemsiit raangtaan ih thuntheng.

59 I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the very last penny.”
Ngah ih baat rumhala, erah nah sen chang maang dokdok ih tongthuk han.”
