Matthew 13
1 On that day Jesus went out of the house and was seated by the seaside.
Ce nyn awh Jesu taw im awhkawng cet nawh tuili kengawh ngawi hy.
2 And great numbers of people came together to him, so that he got into a boat; and the people took up their position by the sea.
Cawh thlang khawzah a venawh cun uhy, cedawngawh lawng khuina cet nawh ngawi hy, thlang kqeng taw tuili kengawh dyi uhy.
3 And he gave them teaching in the form of a story, saying, A man went out to put seed in the earth;
A mingmih a venawh nyttahawi ing awi khawzah kqawn pek khqi hy; “Lo toenkung pynoet taw camci ak theh na cet hy.
4 And while he did so, some seeds were dropped by the wayside, and the birds came and took them for food:
Camci ce ak theh awh a vang taw lam awh tla nawh, phakhqi ing cung boeih uhy.
5 And some of the seed went among the stones, where it had not much earth, and straight away it came up because the earth was not deep:
A vang taw lungpeei ak khan awh tla hy; dek a pam a dawngawh cawt pahoei hy.
6 And when the sun was high, it was burned; and because it had no root it became dry and dead.
Cehlai khawling a hlawk law awhtaw, ak kqa ama cak a dawngawh khawk hlawk ing a hut awh qeu pahoei hy.
7 And some seeds went among thorns, and the thorns came up and they had no room for growth:
A vang taw hlik plup awh tla hy, hling ce saang law nawh caang ce eek hy.
8 And some, falling on good earth, gave fruit, some a hundred, some sixty, some thirty times as much.
Camci a vang taw laitak awh tla nawh, vui hy - zakhat, khqukkip ingkaw thumkip dy na pung hy.
9 He who has ears, let him give ear.
Haa ak ta ingtaw za seh,” tinak khqi hy.
10 And the disciples came and said to him, Why do you say things to them in the form of stories?
A hubatkhqi venawh law unawh, “kawtih thlang kqeng a venawh nyttahawi ing awi nak kqawn peek khqi? tinawh doet uhy.
11 And he said to them in answer, To you is given the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
A mingmih a venawh, “Khan qam awihyp sim thainaak cyihnaak ce nangmih a venawh peek na awm hawh hy, cehlai a mingmih a ven awhtaw am pe hy.
12 Because whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have more; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.
U awm khan qam awihyp cyihnaak ak ta taw sap pe tanoel kawmsaw khawzah papa ta kaw. Cehlai u awm amak ta taw ataak chyn awm lawh pekawng.
13 For this reason I put things into the form of stories; because they see without seeing, and give ear without hearing, and the sense is not clear to them.
Cawhmaw a mingmih a venawh taw nyttahawi awi ing kak kqawn peek khqi: “Hu hlai uhy, am hat uhy; za hlai uhy, am za thai unawh ang zaak na awm am zasim uhy.
14 And for them the words of Isaiah have come true, Though you give ear, you will not get knowledge; and seeing, you will see, but the sense will not be clear to you:
A mingmih a dawngawh tawngha Isaiah ing: “Ang zaak nataw za hlai voei uk ti, am zasim kawm uk ti; hu taw hu hlai voei uk ti, am hat kawm uk ti.
15 For the heart of this people has become fat and their ears are slow in hearing and their eyes are shut; for fear that they might see with their eyes and give hearing with their ears and become wise in their hearts and be turned again to me, so that I might make them well.
Ikawtih ve ak thlangkhqi kawlung ve mawh hqoeng hy; a ming haakhqi ing za kaa hlai uhy, ami mik ce hiim uhy. Ce ap kaa mantaw ami mik ing hu kawm usaw, a ming haa ing za hau kawm uh, kawlung ing zasim kawm usaw huna a ming voei coengawh, qoei sak khqi hau kawng, tinawh anak kqawn ceni.
16 But a blessing be on your eyes, because they see; and on your ears, because they are open.
Cehlai nangmih a mik taw ami huh thai a dawngawh a zoseen hy.
17 For truly, I say to you that prophets and upright men had a desire to see the things which you see, and saw them not; and to have knowledge of the words which have come to your ears, and they had it not.
Awitak ka nik kqawn peek khqi, nangmih ing nami huh ve tawngha khawzah ingkaw thlak dyng khawzah ing huh aham ana ngaih hlai uhy, naming zaak ve zaak ana ngaih hlai uhy, am za uhy.
18 Give ear, then, to the story of the man who put the seed in the earth.
“Cawhtaw camci theh nyttahawi ing ak kqawn ngaihnaak awi ve ngai lah uh:
19 When the word of the kingdom comes to anyone, and the sense of it is not clear to him, then the Evil One comes, and quickly takes away that which was put in his heart. He is the seed dropped by the wayside.
U ingawm khawk khan awithang ce za hlai uhy am zasim uhy, cawh ak kawlung khuiawh theh na ak awm awithang leek ce qaai ing qawt pe valh hy. Vetaw lam awh ak tla camci ing myih hy.
20 And that which went on the stones, this is he who, hearing the word, straight away takes it with joy;
Lungpeei awh ak tla camci taw, thlang ing awi ce ang zaak awh zeel doena do pahoei hy.
21 But having no root in himself, he goes on for a time; and when trouble comes or pain, because of the word, he quickly becomes full of doubts.
Cehlai ak kqa ama taak a dawngawh, kawlhkalh ca doeng awm hy. Ce ak awi dawngawh kyinaak ingkaw thekhanaakkhqi a pha law awh ce tlu pahoei hy.
22 And that which was dropped among the thorns, this is he who has the word; and the cares of this life, and the deceits of wealth, put a stop to the growth of the word and it gives no fruit. (aiōn g165)
Hlik plup awhkaw ak tla camci taw, awi ce za hlai hy, ve khawmdek khan hqingnaak awh mawn atang nawh qaai kqawnnaak ingkaw boei a mangnaak ing awi ce a eek a dawngawh thaih am qah thai hy. (aiōn g165)
23 And the seed which was put in good earth, this is he who gives ear to the word, and gets the sense of it; who gives fruit, some a hundred, some sixty, some thirty times as much.
Laitak awhkaw ak tla camci taw awi ce ang zaak awhkawng ak zasim ak thlang na awm hy; ak thaih qah nawh a vang taw a let zakhat, a vang khqukkip, a vang taw thumkip dyna pung hy,” tina hy.
24 And he gave them another story, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like a man who put good seed in his field:
Jesu ing ak chang nyhtahnaak awi ce a mingmih a venawh kqawn bai hy: “Khawk khan taw thlang pynoet ing a lo awh camci a saw ing myih hy.
25 But while men were sleeping, one who had hate for him came and put evil seeds among the grain, and went away.
Cehlai a mi ih tloek awh ami qaal ce law nawh cang anglakawh beei ak ui ce theh awh cehtaak hy.
26 But when the green stem came up and gave fruit, the evil plants were seen at the same time.
Caang ce cawt nawh a vui ak thaih law awhtaw, beei awm cawt law lawt hy.
27 And the servants of the master of the house came and said to him, Sir, did you not put good seed in your field? how then has it evil plants?
Cawh lokung a tyihzawihkhqi ce a venawh law unawh, 'Bawipa, ak leek ni na lo awh nak theh hlai. Hanakaw beeikhqi nu ak cawt hy voei?' tina uhy.
28 And he said, Someone has done this in hate. And the servants say to him, Is it your pleasure that we go and take them up?
“A mingmih a venawh, 'Qaal ing ni a sai hawh hy ce,' tina hy. A tyihzawihkhqi ing, 'cawhtaw cet unyng seitaw phu mai vang unyng aw? tina uhy.
29 But he says, No, for fear that by chance while you take up the evil plants, you may be rooting up the grain with them.
Cehlai lokung ing, “amni, beei ce nami phuk mantaw cang awm phuk sih hau kawm uk ti.
30 Let them come up together till the getting in of the grain; and then I will say to the workers, Take up first the evil plants, and put them together for burning: but put the grain into my store-house.
Caang ah hlan dy taw cawt haih mai cang seh. Cang ah awhtaw cang aatkhqi venawh, 'Beeikhqi ce phu ma unawh, mai awh phum aham ak nep na tum uh, cang taw teep ak khuiawh chan uh, tina bit kawng,” tinak khqi hy.
31 He put another story before them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and put in his field:
Cekcoengawh a mingmih a venawh nyhtahnaak awi ak chang ce kqawn pek khqi bai hy: “Khan qam taw antlam cii ce thlang ing lo nawh a lo awh ak theh ing myih hy.
32 Which is smaller than all seeds; but when it has come up it is greater than the plants, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of heaven come and make their resting-places in its branches.
Ce antlam cii taw ak ui boeih boeih anglakawh ak zawi soeih na awm hlai hy, a cawt law awhtaw beei ak chang boeihkhqi anglakawh ak bau soeih na awm hy, khan nakaw phakhqi ce law unawh a paangkhqi awh cu uhy,” tinak khqi hy.
33 Another story he gave to them: The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took, and put in three measures of meal, till it was all leavened.
A mingmih a venawh nyhtahnaak awi ak chang kqawn pe bai hy: “Khan qam taw nu pynoet ing hen lo nawh vaidam dawn khui thum a zamnaak boeih aham vaidam awh a phul ing myih hy,” tinak khqi hy.
34 All these things Jesus said to the people in the form of stories; and without a story he said nothing to them:
Vawhkaw ik-oeihkhqi boeih ve Jesu ing nyhtahnaak awi ing thlang kqeng a venawh kqawn pehy; nyhtahnaak awi kaana a mingmih a venawh ikaw pynoet awm ap kqawn pehy.
35 That it might come true which was said by the prophet, Opening my mouth, I will give out stories; I will give knowledge of things kept secret from before all time.
Cedawngawh tawngha ing: “Nyhtahnaak awikhqi ing, khawmdek a syn cyk awhkawng thuh na ak awmkhqi ce kqawn kawng,” tinawh anak kqawn ce cup sak hy.
36 Then he went away from the people, and went into the house; and his disciples came to him, saying, Make clear to us the story of the evil plants in the field.
Cekcoengawh thlang kqeng ce cehta nawh ipkhui na lut hy. Cawh a hubatkhqi ce a venna law unawh, “Lo awhkaw beei nyhtahnaak awi nak kqawn ce kaimih aham kqawn caih lah,” tina uhy.
37 And he made answer and said, He who puts the good seed in the earth is the Son of man;
A mingmih a venawh, “Camcik leek ak thehkung taw thlanghqing Capa ni.
38 And the field is the world; and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom; and the evil seeds are the sons of the Evil One;
Lo taw ve khawmdek ni, camcik leek taw a qam cakhqi ak kqawnnaak ni. Beeikhqi taw thlak thawlh a cakhqi ni,
39 And he who put them in the earth is Satan; and the getting in of the grain is the end of the world; and those who get it in are the angels. (aiōn g165)
a mingmih ak thehkung cetaw qaai ni. Cang ah cetaw khawmdek a dytnaak, cang ak aatkungkhqi cetaw khan ceityihkhqi ni. (aiōn g165)
40 As then the evil plants are got together and burned with fire, so will it be in the end of the world. (aiōn g165)
“Beeikhqi ce phu boeih nawh mai awh amik phum amyihna khawmdek a dyt awh ce amyihna ce awm lawt kaw. (aiōn g165)
41 The Son of man will send out his angels, and they will take out of his kingdom everything which is a cause of error, and all those who do wrong,
Thlanghqing Capa ing ak khan ceityihkhqi ce tyi kawmsaw, thawlhnaak ak saikhqi ingkaw ik-oeih amak leek ak saikhqi ce a qam khui awhkawng caawi kaw.
42 And will put them into the fire; there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.
Thii a tui na ami hloeinaak mai khuiawh a mingmih ce khaawng khqi kaw, cawh ce kqangnaak ingkaw hatahnaak ce awm kaw.
43 Then will the upright be shining as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him give ear.
Cekcoengawh thlak dyngkhqi taw a mi pa a qam awh khawmik amyihna vang hawh kawm uh. Haa ak takhqi ingtaw za seh nyng.
44 The kingdom of heaven is like a secret store of wealth in a field, which a man came across and put back again; and in his joy he goes and gives all he has, to get that field.
Khan qam taw lo awhkaw qo thuh ing myih hy. Cawhkaw qo ce thlang pynoet ing a huh awh thuh tlaih nawh, cekcoengawh zeel doena cet nawh a taak ik-oeihkhqi boeih ce zawi nawh cawhkaw lo ce thlai hy.
45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a trader searching for beautiful jewels.
Cekcoeng baiawh, khan qam taw phuk tlo pale ak suikung them ak zaawi ing myih hy.
46 And having come across one jewel of great price, he went and gave all he had in exchange for it.
Anih ing pale lung phu ak tlo soeih ce a huh awh, cet nawh a taakkhqi boeih ce zawi nawh thlai hy.
47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net, which was put into the sea and took in every sort of fish:
“Cek coeng bai awh, khan qam taw tuili awh lawk khawng nawh nga soepkep ak kaawi ing myih hy.
48 When it was full, they took it up on the sands; and seated there they put the good into vessels, but the bad they put away.
Lawk awh nga a be awh ce peem awh chan unawh nga ak che taw khaawng uhy.
49 So will it be in the end of the world: the angels will come and take out the bad from the good, (aiōn g165)
Khawmdek a dyt awhtaw ce amyihna ce awm lawt kaw. Khan ceityihkhqi law kawm usaw thlak dyngkhqi anglakawhkawng thlak thawlhkhqi ce hoep khqi kaw; (aiōn g165)
50 And will put them into the fire: there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.
cekkhqi ce a tui hloeinaak maih khuina khaawng kaw, ce a hyn awh kqangnaak ingkaw haatahnaak ce awm kaw,” tina hy.
51 Are all these things now clear to you? They say to him, Yes.
Jesu ing a mingmih a venawh, “Vawhkaw ik-oeihkhqi boeih ve namik zasim nu?” tinawh doet khqi hy. Cekkhqi ing, “Oeih, Bawipa,” tina uhy.
52 And he said to them, For this reason every scribe who has become a disciple of the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of a house, who gives out from his store things new and old.
A mingmih a venawh, “Cedawngawh khan qam akawng kqawn peek na ak awm cawng saknaak awi ak qeekungkhqi boeih taw iptakung ing a ipkhui awhkawng a khawhthem ak khqym ak thai ak chet pheng ing myih hy,” tina hy.
53 And when Jesus had come to the end of these stories he went away from there.
Jesu ing vawhkaw nyhtahnaak awikhqi ak kqawn boeih coengawh, ce a hyn ce cehta hy.
54 And coming into his country, he gave them teaching in their Synagogue, so that they were greatly surprised and said, Where did this man get this wisdom and these works of power?
Amah a khaw na ce law nawh Sinakawk awh ce thlang cawngpyi hy, cawh a mingmih ce a ming ngaih kyi hy.” Ve ak thlang ing hana kaw vemyih cyihnaak ingkaw kawpoek kyi ik-oeih saithainaakkhqi a taak hy voei?” ti uhy.
55 Is not this the woodworker's son? is not his mother named Mary? and his brothers James and Joseph and Simon and Judas?
“Anih ve thing aatkung a capa am nu? Anu awm Meri am nu ve, a koeinaakhqi Jakop, Joseph, Simon ingkaw Juda am nu ve?
56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? from where, then, has he all these things?
A koeinukhqi awm ningnih a venawh amik awm haih lawt am nu ve? Ve ak thlang ing vawhkaw ik-oeihkhqi hana kaw a huh hy voei?” ti uhy.
57 And they were bitter against him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is nowhere without honour but in his country and among his family.
Ak khan awh amik kaw am zeel hy. Cehlai Jesu ing cekkhqi venawh, “Tawngha taw amah a khaw ingkaw amah a im am awhtaw zoeksangna am awm man hy,” tina hy.
58 And the works of power which he did there were small in number because they had no faith.
Cangnaak a mami taak a dawngawh ce a hyn awh kawpoek kyi ik-oeih khawzah am sai hy.
