Matthew 6
1 Make sure not to do your good deeds in front of people, just so they can be seen. Otherwise you won't have any reward from your Father in heaven.
Khyang hea maa, khyang he hmuha käh nami petmsawt vai. Khyanga hmuha nami bilawh üng ta khana ka nami pa naw aphu ning jah pe khaia am kya.
2 When you give to the poor, don't be like the hypocrites who blow their own trumpets to announce what they're doing in the synagogues and in the streets so that people will praise them. I tell you the truth: they already have their reward.
Acunakyase msih mpyaki he üng nami jah petmsawt üng angdang käh nami pet vai. Ngpumim ja lama khyanga jah hmuh hmuha khyanga jah mhlünmtai vai hlawheikie hypocrite kba käh nami pawh vai. Ka ning jah mthehki, acun he cun ami ngkhengnak yah pängki he ni.
3 When you give to the poor, don't let your left hand know what your right hand's doing.
Cunüngpi na petmsawt üng na kut vang naw a pet cen na kut vang naw käh ksing se.
4 That way what you give will be in secret, and your Father who sees what happens in secret will reward you.
Na petmsawt üng anghmüa nami petmsawt vai. Acunüng, angthupa ka pi hmuh theiki nami pa naw angdanga ning jah kheng khai.
5 When you pray, don't be like the hypocrites, for they love to stand up and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners so that people can see them. I promise you, they already have their reward.
“Nami ktaiyü üng hypocritea kba käh ktaiyü ua! Amimi cun naw Sinakok ja lam kyuma khyanga hmuh vaia ngdüi hü u lü ktaiyüki he ni. Ka ning jah mthehki, acun he cun naw ngkhengnak yah pängki he ni.
6 But you, when you pray, go indoors and close the door, and pray to your Father in private, and your Father who sees what happens in private will reward you.
Acunüngpi, na ktaiyü üng na im k'um ahinaka lut lü ksawh na khaih käna, ahawia pi ve lü am hmuh theia na Pamhnama veia na ktaiyü üng ning pe khai.
7 When you pray, don't babble on meaninglessly like the foreigners do, who think they will be heard because of all the words they repeat.
Nami ktaiyü üng am jumeikia khyang he naw ami pyen kce ami pyen be bea kba käh nami ktaiyü vai. Ami ktaiyü a saüa phäh ami mhname naw jah ngjak khaia ngaieikie.
8 Don't be like them, for your Father knows what you need even before you ask him.
Acun he mäiha käh nami ve vai. Isetiüng ta i nami hlüki ti cun nami pa naw am nami tä ham üng a ksing päng ni.
9 So pray like this:
Acunakyase, hikba nami ktaiyü vai: Khana vekia kami pa, na ngming ngcim naw leisawngnak yah se.
10 Our heavenly Father, may your name be honored. May your kingdom come! May your will be carried out in earth as it is in heaven.
Na khaw pha law se; Na hlüei khankhawa ami pawha kba khawmdeka pi pawh u se.
11 Please give to us today the food we need.
Tuhngawi kami ei khyawh vai ei jah pe bä.
12 Forgive our sins, just as we have forgiven those who have sinned against us.
Kami khana mkhyekatki he kami jah mhläta kba, kami mkhyekatnak pi jah mhlät bä.
13 Don't let us be tempted to do wrong, and save us from the evil one.
Mkhyekat vaia hlawhlepnaka käh jah cehpüi lü, Khawyaipaa kut üngkhyüh pi jah yung kawpi. Khaw ni, johit ja hlüngtainak he cun na kaa kya se. Amen.
14 For if you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
Khyang hea ami ning jah mkhyekatnak nami jah mhlät üng khankhawa ka nami pa naw pi nangmia mkhyekatnak pi ning jah mhlät khai.
15 But if you don't forgive those who sin against you, then your heavenly Father won't forgive your sins.
Acunüng pi khyang hea ami mkhyekatnak am nami jah mhlät üng, khana ka nami pa naw pi nami mkhyenak am ning jah mhlät khaia kyaki.
16 When you fast, don't be like the hypocrites who put on sad faces and make themselves look terrible so that everyone can see they're fasting. I tell you the truth, they already have their reward.
Ei nami jeih üng hypocrit hea kba pukseki hea mäiha nami hmai käh nami tak vai. Khyang he naw ei jeihki he ti ami jah ksing vaia ami hmai hngasaki he ni. Akcanga ka ning jah mtheh hlüki. Acun he cun ami ngkhengnak yah pängki he ni.
17 Instead, when you fast, wash your face and look smart,
Ei nami jeih üng nami lu ksi am hluk u lü mthik lü nami hmaiei vai.
18 so that people won't see you're fasting, and your unseen Father who sees what happens in private will reward you.
Acunüng, khyang he naw ei nami jeih am ksing u. Nami pa angthupnaka ve lü angthup hmuh theiki däk naw angdanga ning jah khyeng khai.
19 Don't pile up wealth here on earth where moths and rust ruin it, and where thieves break in and steal it.
Mthiek ja mkhyaa ei thei ja, mpyukei hea kpyeh thei, khawmdek khana khawhthem käh mcun ua.
20 Instead, you should store up your wealth in heaven, where moths and rust don't ruin it, and where thieves don't break in and steal it.
Mthiek ja mkhyaa am a ei thei ja mpyukei hea am ami kpyeh thei khankhaw khawh mcun ua.
21 For what you value the most shows who you really are.
Isetiüng ta, khawhthem nami taknaka nami mlungmthin, nami ngainak ve khaia kyaki.
22 The eye is like a lamp that lights the body. So if your eye is healthy, then your whole body will have light.
Mik cun pumsa akvai ni. Acunakyase na mik a daw üng, na pumsa avan vai khai.
23 But if your eye is evil, then your whole body will be in the dark. If the light in you is darkness, how dark is that!
Acunüng pi, na mik a mü üng ta na pumsa avan nghmüp päihki ni. Acunakyase, na pumsa k'uma veki akvai hin anghmüp ani üng ihlawka kyühkse khai aw?
24 No one can serve two masters. Either you'll hate one and love the other, or you'll be devoted to one and despise the other. You can't serve both God and Money.
U naw pi bawi nghngiha khut am pawh khawh. Bawi mat kphya na lü; bawi mat hneng khai. Am ani üng mata pyen ngai lü, mat ksekha na khai. Nangmi pi Pamhnam ja ngui xüi ani nghngiha khut am jah mkhyawp khawh uki.
25 That's why I'm telling you not to worry about your life. Don't worry about what to eat, or what to drink, or what clothes to put on. Isn't life more than food, and the body more than clothes?
Acunakyase, ka ning jah mtheh hlü ta, i ka ei khai, i ka aw khai, i ka suisak khai ti lü nami pumsaa phäh käh cäicing ua. Sak hin eiawka kthaka am phumah bawki aw? Pumsa hin suisaka kthaka am phumah bawki aw?
26 Look at the birds—they don't sow or reap or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren't you worth more than they are?
Khana kha he jah teng ua: mci am saw u, cang am at u, kheia pi am mcunei u. Cunüngpi nami pa khana ka naw jah mcahki ni! Kha hea kthak nami phumah bawkie am niki aw?
27 Who of you by worrying can add a minute to your life?
Acun he nami cäicingnaka phäh a khawkum apica saülawki veki aw?
28 And why are you worried about clothes? Look at the beautiful flowers in the field. See how they grow: they don't work hard, they don't spin thread.
Acunakyase, ivaia suisaka phäha nami cäicingki he ni? Mawkpyawnga ka he lili khyeipai he cen jah teng süm ua, ami suisak vai am khüi na u, nghmüi pi am bi u.
29 But I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory was dressed like one of these flowers.
Ka ning jah mthehki, Sangpuxang Solamona a khawhkhyam naküt naw khyeipai matcaa ngtongtai pi am kpha.
30 So if God decorates the fields like this, grass which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, won't he do much more for you, you people who trust so little?
Nami jumnak ngceki he aw, tuhngawi xüng lü angawi üng thikia khyeipai he pi Pamhnam naw a jah ngtongtaisak üng ta, acuna kthaka daw bawkia ning jah msuimsak khai ni.
31 So don't worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’
Acunakyase, i kami ei khai, i kami aw khai, i kami suisak khai? ti lü ä cäicing ua.
32 These are all the things that the heathen chase after, but your heavenly Father knows everything you need.
(Ahin he cun Pamhnam am ksingki he naw ni ami suihjap khawi.) Nangmi cun khana ka nami pa naw nami hlükaw naküt cun ksingki.
33 Seek his kingdom first, and his way of living right, and everything will be given to you.
Akcüka Pamhnama khaw ja a hlüei sui ma ua, acun käna ahin he avan ning jah pe khai.
34 So don't worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow can worry about itself. There's already enough evil in every day.
Acunakyase, khawngawia phäha käh cäicing ua, khawngawi amäta phäh cäicingei khai ni. Tuhngawi na cäicingnak hin tuhngawia phäha khäk ve.
