Luke 16
1 And he said also to his disciples: There was a certain rich man who had a steward: and the same was accused unto him, that he had wasted his goods.
A hnukbang rhoek te khaw, “Hlang pakhat tah kuirhang la om tih hnokhoem a khueh. Te long te a khuehtawn a haeh pah dongah amah a khotoh nah.
2 And he called him, and said to him: How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship: for now thou canst be steward no longer.
Te dongah anih te a khue tih, “Nang kawng ka yaak he me tlam lae? Na hnokhoemnah dongkah olka te thuung laeh, na khoom ham na coeng voel moenih,’ a ti nah.
3 And the steward said within himself: What shall I do, because my lord taketh away from me the stewardship? To dig I am not able; to beg I am ashamed.
Te vaengah hnokhoem amah te, 'Balae ka saii lah eh? Ka boeipa loh hnokhoemnah he kai lamloh a lat coeng, diklai daeng ham khaw ka noeng pawh, bih ham khaw ka yak,
4 I know what I will do, that when I shall be removed from the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
Ka saii ham te ka ming coeng. Te daengah ni hnokhoemnah lamkah ka puen uh vaengah a im khuila kai n'doe uh eh,’ a ti.
5 Therefore calling together every one of his lord’s debtors, he said to the first: How much dost thou owe my lord?
Te dongah, a boeipa kah purhong rhoek te rhip a khue tih, lamhma taengah, 'Ka boeipa taengah meyet na ba?' a ti nah.
6 But he said: An hundred barrels of oil. And he said to him: Take thy bill and sit down quickly, and write fifty.
Te long te, 'Situi um yakhat,’ a ti nah. Te vaengah anih te, 'Na cabu na doe vaengah ngol pahoi lamtah sawmnga mah daek,’ a ti nah.
7 Then he said to another: And how much dost thou owe? Who said: An hundred quarters of wheat. He said to him: Take thy bill, and write eighty.
Pakhat te khaw, 'Nang tah meyet na ba,” a ti nah. Te long te, “Cang phueih yakhat,” a ti nah. Anih te, “Cabu na doe vaengah sawmrhet la daek,” a ti nah.
8 And the lord commended the unjust steward, forasmuch as he had done wisely: for the children of this world are wiser in their generation than the children of light. (aiōn g165)
A thai a lai neh a saii dongah boethae kah hnokhoem te boeipa loh a koeh. Ta kumhal kah ca rhoek he amah cadil khuiah tah vangnah kah a ca rhoek lakah cueih uh. (aiōn g165)
9 And I say to you: Make unto you friends of the mammon of iniquity; that when you shall fail, they may receive you into everlasting dwellings. (aiōnios g166)
Te dongah kai loh nangmih taengah ka thui, “Boethae laikhuehtawn te khaw na paya la khuehuh. Te daengah ni dungyan dap khuila na khum vaengah n'doe uh eh. (aiōnios g166)
10 He that is faithful in that which is least, is faithful also in that which is greater: and he that is unjust in that which is little, is unjust also in that which is greater.
A yit dongah uepom la aka om tah a len dongah khaw uepom la om tih, a yit dongah aka halang tah a len dongah khaw halang.
11 If then you have not been faithful in the unjust mammon; who will trust you with that which is the true?
Halang, laikhuehtawn neh uepom la na om uh pawt bal atah unim nangmih rhep aka tangnah te?
12 And if you have not been faithful in that which is another’s; who will give you that which is your own?
Te dongah na hlanglang tih uepom la na om pawt atah na koe te u long nangmih m'paek eh.
13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
Imkhut pakhat loh boei panit kah sal a bi thai moenih, pakhat te a toeng vetih pakhat te a lungnah ni, pakhat te a talong vetih pakhat te a hnoel ni. Pathen neh laikhuehtawn kah sal na bi rhenthen thai moenih,” a ti nah.
14 Now the Pharisees, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
Te te naivoei la aka om Pharisee rhoek loh boeih a yaak uh vaengah amah te a nueih thiluh.
15 And he said to them: You are they who justify yourselves before men, but God knoweth your hearts; for that which is high to men, is an abomination before God.
Te dongah amih te, “Nangmih loh hlang hmaiah aka tang la na omuh. Tedae Pathen loh nangmih thinko te a ming. Hlang soah aka sang te Pathen hmaiah tueilaehnah la om.
16 The law and the prophets were until John; from that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every one useth violence towards it.
Olkhueng neh tonghma rhoek loh Johan hil, te lamkah loh Pathen kah ram tah ana phong coeng tih a khuila la boeih ana ael uh.
17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fall.
Olkhueng te a dek pakhat a rhul lakah vaan neh diklai a khum te a phoeng la om pueng.
18 Every one that putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth her that is put away from her husband, committeth adultery.
A yuu te a tueih tih a tloe aka lo boeih tah samphaih coeng. Te phoeiah va aka ma aka yunah te khaw samphaih.
19 There was a certain rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen; and feasted sumptuously every day.
Hlang pakhat tah kuirhang la om. Te dongah daidi, hnithen neh khuk uh tih hnin takuem thayoei tuipan la a uum.
20 And there was a certain beggar, named Lazarus, who lay at his gate, full of sores,
Te vaengah khodaeng pakhat, a ming ah Lazarus tah buhlut neh a vongka ah a yalh pah.
21 Desiring to be filled with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table, and no one did give him; moreover the dogs came, and licked his sores.
Te dongah kuirhang caboei lamkah aka bo nen te bunghah khaw a nai. Tedae ui rhoek long pataeng ha pawk uh vaengah a buhlut te a laeh pa uh.
22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom. And the rich man also died: and he was buried,
Tedae khodaeng te a duek vaengah puencawn rhoek loh Abraham rhang dongla a khuen. Te phoeiah kuirhang te khaw duek tih a up uh.
23 in hell. And lifting up his eyes when he was in torments, he saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom: (Hadēs g86)
Tedae saelkhui ah a mik a hoh tih nganboh neh kho a sak vaengah tah Abraham neh a rhang dongkah Lazarus te a hla lamkah a hmuh. (Hadēs g86)
24 And he cried, and said: Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, to cool my tongue: for I am tormented in this flame.
Te dongah a pang neh, 'A pa Abraham, kai he n'rhen lamtah Lazarus te han tueih mai. A kutdawn kah a hmoicue te tui dongah naek saeh lamtah ka lai he sul sak saeh, hmaitak khuiah mat n'yuek coeng he,’ a ti nah.
25 And Abraham said to him: Son, remember that thou didst receive good things in thy lifetime, and likewise Lazareth evil things, but now he is comforted; and thou art tormented.
Tedae Abraham loh, 'Camoe, na hingnah dongkah na hnothen na dang te poek. Te vaengah Lazarus tah yoethae bangla om. Tedae anih a mong vaengah he nang tah patang loh n'yuek coeng.
26 And besides all this, between us and you, there is fixed a great chaos: so that they who would pass from hence to you, cannot, nor from thence come hither.
He rhoek boeih khuiah khaw kaimih neh nangmih laklo kah longhoi tah muep n'lak coeng. Te dongah nangmih taengla hlaikan dingdoeng aka ngaih long khaw coeng pawh, kaimih taengla hlaikan dingdoeng ham khaw coeng pawh,’ a ti nah.
27 And he said: Then, father, I beseech thee, that thou wouldst send him to my father’s house, for I have five brethren,
Te phoeiah, 'A pa namah ni kan hloep. Te dongah anih te a pa im la tueih mai.
28 That he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torments.
Manuca panga ka khueh dongah amih te uen mai saeh. Te daengah ni amih khaw hekah nganboh hmuen la ha pawk uh pawt eh?,’ a ti nah.
29 And Abraham said to him: They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
Tedae Abraham loh, 'Moses neh tonghma te a khueh uh ta, amih taengah hnatun uh saeh,’ a ti nah.
30 But he said: No, father Abraham: but if one went to them from the dead, they will do penance.
Tedae te long te, 'Moenih, a pa Abraham, aka duek tangtae pakhat loh amih te paan koinih yut uh ni,’ a ti nah.
31 And he said to him: If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they believe, if one rise again from the dead.
Tedae anih te, 'Moses neh tonghma rhoek kah olthui te a hnatun uh pawt atah, duek khui lamkah khat khat thoo cakhaw ngaitang mahpawh,’ a ti nah,” a ti.
