< Matthew 13 >

1 The same day Jesus going out of the house, sat by the sea side.
Acuna mhnüp üng, Jesuh im üngkhyüh cit lü tuilia kama jah mthei khaia ngawki.
2 And great multitudes were gathered unto him, so that he went up into a boat and sat: and all the multitude stood on the shore.
Ani ngbum lawki khyangpäe nung u se ta Jesuh mlawnga khana kai lü a ngaw üng, khyangpäe cun tuili kama ngdüikie.
3 And he spoke to them many things in parables, saying: Behold the sower went forth to sow.
Jesuh naw msuimcäpnake am ngthu pyen lü, “Ahlana mci saw khaia khyang mat citki.”
4 And whilst he soweth some fell by the way side, and the birds of the air came and ate them up.
Acukba a phuh hü üng, mci avang lama kya se khae naw ami ei u.
5 And other some fell upon stony ground, where they had not much earth: and they sprung up immediately, because they had no deepness of earth.
Avang lunga danak, nglei a ngceknaka kya se akjanga cawt lawki.
6 And when the sun was up they were scorched: and because they had not root, they withered away.
Khaw so law lü ngling law se, apya am vekia kya lü ngjaiei päihki.
7 And others fell among thorns: and the thorns grew up and choked them.
Mci avang nghlinga ksunga kya se nghling naw saü law lü a jah yaiin.
8 And others fell upon good ground: and they brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, and some thirtyfold.
Cunsepi, mci avang ngleia dawnaka kya se daw lü, avang aphya, avang khyukip, avang thumkipa ngtheipai lawki.
9 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Aupi a ngjaknak vai a nghnga veki naw ngja se” a ti.
10 And his disciples came and said to him: Why speakest thou to them in parables?
Acunüng axüisaw he Jesuha veia law u lü, “Khyang he am na ngthuei üng ivaia msuimcäpnake na jah sumeiki ni?” ti lü ami kthäh u.
11 Who answered and said to them: Because to you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven: but to them it is not given.
Jesuh naw, “Nangmi cun Khankhaw Pea küia mawng ksingnak ka ning jah mtheh päng ni, amimi üng ta am jah mtheh nawng” a ti.
12 For he that hath, to him shall be given, and he shall abound: but he that hath not, from him shall be taken away that also which he hath.
Takia khyang üng a tak law dämdäm vaia petsih vai. I pi am taki üng a tak naküt pi hutei be vai.
13 Therefore do I speak to them in parables: because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
Ami veia msuimcäpnak am ngthu ka pyen hin teng kyaw u lü pi am hmu u, ngai kyaw u lü pi am ngjakya u.
14 And the prophecy of Isaias is fulfilled in them, who saith: By hearing you shall hear, and shall not understand: and seeing you shall see, and shall not perceive.
Acunakyase sahma Hesajah naw Hina khyang he naw ngai lü ngaikie, cunüngpi am ngjakya u; teng lü tengkie, cunüngpi am hmu u,
15 For the heart of this people is grown gross, and with their ears they have been dull of hearing, and their eyes they have shut: lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
Isetiüng ami mlung nghlangkia kyase, ami nghnga naw am ngja ti, ami mik naw am hmu ti. Ami mik naw hmu lü, ami nghnga naw a ngjak vai sü ta, ami mlung üng ngjakya khaie sü, acunüng ka veia nghlat law be u se, ka jah mdaw be vai sü” a pyen khawi.
16 But blessed are your eyes, because they see, and your ears, because they hear.
Nangmi ta nami mik naw hmuh lü nami nghnga naw ngja se nami kam daw ve.
17 For, amen, I say to you, many prophets and just men have desired to see the things that you see, and have not seen them, and to hear the things that you hear and have not heard them.
Akcanga ka ning jah mthehki, sahma khawkän ja Pamhnama khyang he naw nami hmuh hin hmuh hlü u lü pi am hmuh khawh u, nami ngjak hin ngja hlü u lü pi am ngja hüt u.
18 Hear you therefore the parable of the sower.
Acunakyase, mciksaw msuimcäpnak üng pyen hlü hin ngai lü ngthei ua.
19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, there cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart: this is he that received the seed by the way side.
Khankhaw Pea mawng ngthu ngja lü am ngjakyaki cun lama khana kyaki mci am tängki ni. Khawyaipa naw law lü a mlung k’uma sawnglin cun a lawheiin pet.
20 And he that received the seed upon stony ground, is he that heareth the word, and immediately receiveth it with joy.
Lunga khana kyaki mci cun ngthu ngja lü jekyainak am a ngjak ja dokhameiki.
21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but is only for a time: and when there ariseth tribulation and persecution because of the word, he is presently scandalized.
Acunüngpi am phungpya mahkia kyase khawvei am kham. Acun ngthua phäh khuikhatnak ja mkhuimkhanak apha law üng pyaiei beki.
22 And he that received the seed among thorns, is he that heareth the word, and the care of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choketh up the word, and he becometh fruitless. (aiōn g165)
Nghling hmua kyakia mci cun Mhnama ngthu ngja kyawki, khawmdeka cäicingnak ja bawimangnak naw a mhleia phäh a ngthu ngjak cun kpyeh se, am ngtheipai lü veeiki. (aiōn g165)
23 But he that received the seed upon good ground, is he that heareth the word, and understandeth, and beareth fruit, and yieldeth the one an hundredfold, and another sixty, and another thirty.
Ngleia dawnak üng kyakia mci cun ta ngthu ngja lü ngjakyaki: acunüng ngtheipaikie, avang aphya, akhäk khyukip ja amsah thumkipa ngtheipai bekie” a ti.
24 Another parable he proposed to them, saying: The kingdom of heaven is likened to a man that sowed good seeds in his field.
Msuimcäpnak akce a jah mtheh betü ta, “Khankhaw Pe cun a loa mci kdaw sawki khyang mat am tängki ni.
25 But while men were asleep, his enemy came and oversowed cockle among the wheat and went his way.
Khyang he ami ih k'um mthan mat üng, ye naw law lü mci kdawa ksunga mci kse saw lü akcea citinki.
26 And when the blade was sprung up, and had brought forth fruit, then appeared also the cockle.
Cang pyo law lü a vuipai law üng, mphyaw pi ngdang lawki.
27 And the servants of the goodman of the house coming said to him: Sir, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field? whence then hath it cockle?
A mpyae naw law u lü amahpaa veia, “Angvai aw, na lo üng mcikdaw va na saw am niki aw? Hawia khyüh hina mphyawe po lawki he ni? ti lü a kthäh.
28 And he said to them: An enemy hath done this. And the servants said to him: Wilt thou that we go and gather it up?
Lomah naw, “Yee naw ahikba ami pawh ni” a ti. A mpyae naw lomah üng cit lü kami jah phukin vai aw? ami ti.
29 And he said: No, lest perhaps gathering up the cockle, you root up the wheat also together with it.
Lomah naw, “Kaa, mphyaw nami phuk üng cangkdaw pi nami phuksih khai ni.”
30 Suffer both to grow until the harvest, and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers: Gather up first the cockle, and bind it into bundles to burn, but the wheat gather ye into my barn.
“Cang ah veia ani nghngih veei yüm ni se. Cang ah law üng mphyawe cun jah phu ma lü mei üng jah mkhih vai ja, cange cun jah at hnga u lü, ka kheia ami tak vaia cangk'at he üng ka jah mtheh khai,” ti lü a pyen.
31 Another parable he proposed unto them, saying: The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field.
Jesuh naw msuimcäpnak akce a jah mtheh betü cun, “Khankhaw Pe cun khyang naw anca ui cehpüi lü a loa a phuha mäi ni,”
32 Which is the least indeed of all seeds; but when it is grown up, it is greater than all herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come, and dwell in the branches thereof.
Anca ui cun mciui naküt üng akdik säiha kya lü pi a cawt law üng, kpue naküt kthaka ngbaü lawki. A thinga thawn law se khae naw pi law u lü, a kpyang üng ngbu tuhei law khawikie,” a ti.
33 Another parable he spoke to them: The kingdom of heaven is like to leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, until the whole was leavened.
Msuimcäpnak mat a jah mtheh betü cun, “Khankhaw Pe cun nghnumi mat naw nghngen lo lü khai tawng kthum üng kcaw se, khai kphawm lawki üng tängki ni,” a ti.
34 All these things Jesus spoke in parables to the multitudes: and without parables he did not speak to them.
Jesuh naw msuimcäpnak am khyangpäe üng ngthu jah mthehki; msuimcäpnaka kaa i am pyen.
35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying: I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world.
Sahma naw a pyen khawi, “Msuimcäpnak am amimia veia ngthu ka pyen khai; khawmdek mhnünmceng üngka naw khyüngthupe ka jah mtheh khai,” ti aküm lawnaka kyaki.
36 Then having sent away the multitudes, he came into the house, and his disciples came to him, saying: Expound to us the parable of the cockle of the field.
Jesuh naw khyangpä cun akcea jah ceh ta lü im k’uma lut se, axüisaw he a veia law u lü, “Loa mphyawa mawng msuimcäpnaka suilam i ni, jah mtheha” ami ti.
37 Who made answer and said to them: He that soweth the good seed, is the Son of man.
Jesuh naw, “Mcikdaw sawki cun Khyanga Capa ni.”
38 And the field, is the world. And the good seed are the children of the kingdom. And the cockle, are the children of the wicked one.
Lo cun khawmdek ni, mcikdawe cun Khankhaw Pea ca hea kya u lü, mphyawe cun Khawyama ca he ni.
39 And the enemy that sowed them, is the devil. But the harvest is the end of the world. And the reapers are the angels. (aiōn g165)
Mphyaw sawki ye cun Khawyam ni. Cang ah kcün cun khawmdeka päihnaka mhnüp ni, cang atkie cun khankhawngsä he ni. (aiōn g165)
40 Even as cockle therefore is gathered up, and burnt with fire: so shall it be at the end of the world. (aiōn g165)
Acukba mphyawe jah mcun lü mei üng ami jah mkhiha mäiha, akcün päih law üng thawn law khai. (aiōn g165)
41 The Son of man shall send his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all scandals, and them that work iniquity.
Khyanga Capa naw a khankhawngsä he jah tüih law se, acun he naw a Khankhaw Pe üng khyang he jah mkhyekatsakie ja akse pawhkie avan cun jah mkhäm khai,
42 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Kyap u lü ami mnicui hakyet khai hea mulai mei kdäi üng jah xawt law khaie.
43 Then shall the just shine as the sun, in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Acunüng Pamhnam ca he ta khawnghngia deikhanga mäiha ami Paa Khankhaw Pea kdeikhang khaie. Na nghnga a ve üng ngjaa!
44 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a treasure hidden in a field. Which a man having found, hid it, and for joy thereof goeth, and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
Khankhaw Pe cun loa thupa khawhthem üng tängki ni. Khyang mat naw acuna khawh cun hmu lü thup beki naw, jekyai lü a tak naküt va jawi lü a yah lawa ngui am acuna lo cun a khyäih.
45 Again the kingdom of heaven is like to a merchant seeking good pearls.
Acunkäna, Khankhaw Pe cun aphu küiki lungtaü kdaw sui hü lü kunpanki khyang mat veki.
46 Who when he had found one pearl of great price, went his way, and sold all that he had, and bought it.
Acuna lungtaü a hmuh üng a tak naküt jawi päih lü acuna lungtaü cun a khyäih am tängki ni.
47 Again the kingdom of heaven is like to a net cast into the sea, and gathering together of all kind of fishes.
Khankhaw Pe cun ngvai am pi tängki ni. Ngaksui avang naw tuia ami ngvai ami vawih üng nga amjüküm ng’awki.
48 Which, when it was filled, they drew out, and sitting by the shore, they chose out the good into vessels, but the bad they cast forth.
Ngvai cun nga beei se kawnga kaih u lü nga cun ami ngawh sawa phyäihkie: nga kdawe cun cä üng jah xawn u lü, am dawkia ngakse naküt cun ami jah xawtin.
49 So shall it be at the end of the world. The angels shall go out, and shall separate the wicked from among the just. (aiōn g165)
Acukba akcüna päih law üng thawn law khai: khankhawngsä he naw law u lü khyang ngsungpyunea ksunga khyangkae cun jah xü khai. (aiōn g165)
50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Kyap lü ami mnicui hakyet khai hea, mulai meikdäia jah xawtin vai” a ti.
51 Have ye understood all these things? They say to him: Yes.
Jesuh naw, “Ahin he hin nami jah ngjakyaki aw?” ti se, “Ä, kami ngjakyaki ni” ami ti.
52 He said unto them: Therefore every scribe instructed in the kingdom of heaven, is like to a man that is a householder, who bringeth forth out of his treasure new things and old.
Jesuh naw, “Acunakyase Khankhaw Pea mawng mtheiki thum mthei he naküt cun immahpa naw a im k’uma ka khawh akthai ja akphyüm a cümnak üngka naw loki am tängki ni,” a ti.
53 And it came to pass: when Jesus had finished these parables, he passed from thence.
Jesuh naw acuna msuimcäpnake a jah mtheh päng üng, acuna hnün hawih lü,
54 And coming into his own country, he taught them in their synagogues, so that they wondered and said: How came this man by this wisdom and miracles?
A hminak mlüha cit beki. Sinakoka k’uma jah mtheimthang se ngja lü müncan ngenkie. “Ahina themngvainak müncankse pawhnaka johit hin hawia a jah yah ni?” ami ti.
55 Is not this the carpenter’s son? Is not his mother called Mary, and his brethren James, and Joseph, and Simon, and Jude:
Imksaa ca am ni mä? A nu pi Marih, a benae pi Jakuk, Josep, Sihmon ja Judah ami ti am nikie mä?
56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence therefore hath he all these things?
A cinae am pi ahia awmki he am ni mä? Hawia ka hin naw ahikba johit hin a jah yah hü ni? ami ti.
57 And they were scandalized in his regard. But Jesus said to them: A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
Acukba Jesuh cun ami ma. Jesuh naw, “Sahma cun hnün naküt üng leisawngkie ni, a hminak a khaw ja a imbunga ni am leisawngnak a yah khawi,” a ti.
58 And he wrought not many miracles there, because of their unbelief.
Am jumkiea kyase acuia müncankse i am pawh.
