Matthew 11
1 And it came to pass when Jesus had finished commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and preach in their cities.
Jesus in a nungzui sawmleni te thu a hil zawkciang, tua mun pan pusuak in, amate khuapi sungteng ah hilna pia tu le thuhil tu in pai hi.
2 But John, having heard in the prison the works of the Christ, sent by his disciples,
Thonginn sung pan in tuiphumpa John in Christ nasep nate a zak ciang in, a nungzui ni te sawl a,
3 and said to him, Art thou the coming [one]? or are we to wait for another?
Jesus kung ah, Nangma sia hongpai tu pa na hi ziam, a hibale a dang ngak laitu khu ziam, ci in dong hi.
4 And Jesus answering said to them, Go, report to John what ye hear and see.
Jesus in, Heakkik tavun a, na zak le na mu uh teng John tung ah sonkik vun;
5 Blind [men] see and lame walk; lepers are cleansed, and deaf hear; and dead are raised, and poor have glad tidings preached to them:
Mittaw te khuamu in, peangbai te lampai thei a, miphak te thiangsak in, nangong te khuaza thei a, mithi te thosak in, mizawng te tung ah lungdamna thu ki tangko zo hi.
6 and blessed is whosoever shall not be offended in me.
Akua mapo kei hang in muanlakna a nei ngawl te thuphatoai a hihi, ci in zo kik hi.
7 But as they went [away], Jesus began to say to the crowds concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? a reed moved about by the wind?
Amate a heakkik zawkciang Jesus in mipi te tung ah John thu son kipan a, Duisung ah bang en tu in pai nu ziam? Hui i seam phaikung ngawk ziam?
8 But what went ye out to see? a man clothed in delicate raiment? behold, those who wear delicate things are in the houses of kings.
Bang en tu in pai nu ziam? Puanneam hoi nano sil mu nuam nu ziam? en vun, puanneam nano sil te kumpi innsung ah a om te a hihi.
9 But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet:
Bang en tu in pai nu ziam? Kamsang ziam? hi hi, kamsang bek domngawl hi, kong ci hi.
10 this is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
Banghangziam cile, en in, na mai ah na lampi puakhol tu in ka thupuak sawl khi hi, ci a ki atkholsa thu sia, John thu a hihi.
11 Verily I say to you, that there is not arisen among [the] born of women a greater than John the baptist. But he who is a little one in the kingdom of the heavens is greater than he.
A tatak ka ci ciang, numei sung pan a piang teng sungpan tuiphumpa John sang in a lianzaw kuama om ngawl hi: ahihang vantung kumpingam sung ah a nobel sia nangawn John sang in lianzaw lai hi.
12 But from the days of John the baptist until now, the kingdom of the heavens is taken by violence, and [the] violent seize on it.
Tuiphumpa John hunlai pan in tuni dong vantung kumpingam sia zawthawkthu taw ki suttol in, a ngoltol te in sut in la hi.
13 For all the prophets and the law have prophesied unto John.
Banghangziam cile, kamsang theampo le Moses thukham te in John hundong maisang thu sonkhol zo uh hi.
14 And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, who is to come.
Hi thu te na sangthei uh le, Elijah hongpai tu hi, a ci sia a ma John hi zo hi.
15 He that has ears to hear, let him hear.
Zak natu bil nei theampo in za tahen.
16 But to whom shall I liken this generation? It is like children sitting in the markets, which, calling to their companions,
Tu hun mihing te sia bang taw sonte tu khi ziam? Amate sia sumbuk te ah to in, a lawmte a biakpui patang te taw kibang hi.
17 say, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced: we have mourned to you, and ye have not wailed.
Tamngai kong tum uh hang lam nuam ngawl nu hi; katap kong law uh hang zong kap tuan ngawl nu hi, ci uh hi.
18 For John has come neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He has a demon.
Banghangziam cile John sia ne ngawl dawn ngawl in hongpai ciang, amate in doai vei hi, ci uh hi.
19 The Son of man has come eating and drinking, and they say, Behold, a man [that is] eating and wine-drinking, a friend of tax-gatherers, and of sinners: — and wisdom has been justified by her children.
Mihing Tapa sia ne le dawn in hongpai ciang, amate in, en vun, an tuang pa, sapittui tuang pa, siadong te le mawnei te i lawmpa, ci uh hi. Ahihang ciimna in a tate mawsiatna pan suatak hi. ci hi.
20 Then began he to reproach the cities in which most of his works of power had taken place, because they had not repented.
Jesus in nalamdang a tamzaw a vawtna khuapi te a ki sikkik nop ngawl hang in mawsiat a:
21 Woe to thee, Chorazin! woe to thee Bethsaida! for if the works of power which have taken place in you, had taken place in Tyre and Sidon, they had long ago repented in sackcloth and ashes.
Chorazin awng! na mailam bing hi! Bethsaida awng! na mailam bing hi! banghangziam cile na sung ah a ki vawt nalamdang te, Tyre le Sidon khua sung ah ki vawt hile, khau-ip le vut taw a ki sikkik uh ngei zo tu hi.
22 But I say to you, that it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in judgment-day than for you.
Ahizong kei kong ci na pan, thukhenna ni ciang Tyre le Sidon te nang sang in thuak nop zawlai tu hi.
23 And thou, Capernaum, who hast been raised up to heaven, shalt be brought down even to hades. For if the works of power which have taken place in thee, had taken place in Sodom, it had remained until this day. (Hadēs g86)
Nang Capernaum awng! van dong in lapsang hi napi, hell sung dong khiaksuk na hi tu hi: banghangziam cile na sung ah a ki vawt nalamdang te Sodom ah ki vawt hile, tuni dong taang lai tu hi. (Hadēs g86)
24 But I say to you, that it shall be more tolerable for [the] land of Sodom in judgment-day than for thee.
Ahihang, kei kong ci na pan, thukhenna ni ciang nang sang in Sodom leitang i thuakna sia thuaknop zawlai tu hi, ci hi.
25 At that time, Jesus answering said, I praise thee, Father, Lord of the heaven and of the earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to babes.
Tua hun laitakin Jesus in, Simlei le vantung i Pa, Ka Topa awng, mipil mithiam te kung pan in na sealcip thu te, hi patangno te tung ah pualak na hi man in ka lungdam hi.
26 Yea, Father, for thus has it been well-pleasing in thy sight.
Hi tahen, Pa awng: hibang teng a piang tu na dei na a hihi.
27 All things have been delivered to me by my Father, and no one knows the Son but the Father, nor does any one know the Father, but the Son, and he to whom the Son may be pleased to reveal [him].
Ka Pa in na theampo hong pia zo hi: Pa simngawl kuama in Tapa a he bua uh hi; Tapa le Tapa in a telsak nop te simngawl kuama in Pa a he bua uh hi.
28 Come to me, all ye who labour and are burdened, and I will give you rest.
Van ngit pua in a toite theampo, ka kung ah hongpai tavun, tawlngakna kong pia tu hi.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest to your souls;
Ka hakkol la in ki suan vun; keima tung pan ki sin vun; banghangziam cile keima in cingh in thinsung ki niamkhiakna nei ka hi kom: na thaa atu in tawlngakna na mu tu uh hi.
30 for my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Banghangziam cile, ka hakkol puak nop a, ka van a zaang hi.,
