Matthew 12
1 At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungered, and began to pluck the ears of corn and to eat.
Te vaeng tue kah Sabbath ah Jesuh tah lohma longah cet. A hnukbang rhoek tah a bungpong uh tih cangvuei a yun uh tih koe a kueh a uh.
2 But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, Behold, your disciples do that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath day.
Tedae Pharisee rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah Jesuh te, “Sabbath ah saii ham a paek pawt te na hnukbang rhoek loh a saii uh ke,” a ti nah.
3 But he said to them, Have you not read what David did, when he was an hungered, and they that were with him;
Tedae Jesuh loh, “David neh a taengkah rhoek loh a bung a pong vaengah balae a saii, na tae uh moenih a?
4 How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests?
Pathen im khuila kun tih a hmai kah buh a caak te ta. Te te anih kah a caak tueng la a om moenih, khosoih rhoek bueng pawt atah a taengkah rhoek ham khaw a om moenih.
5 Or have you not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
Sabbath ah bawkim kah khosoih rhoek loh Sabbath te a poeih dae ommongsitoe la a om uh te olkhueng khuiah na tae uh moenih a?
6 But I say to you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.
Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui, bawkim lakah aka tanglue ngai tah he ah om ta.
7 But if you had known what this means, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, you would not have condemned the guiltless.
Tedae metla a om khaw na ming uh koinih, rhennah ni ka ngaih hmueih moenih,’ a ti dongah ommongsitoe te na boe sak uh pawt sue.
8 For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.
Hlang capa tah Sabbath boeipa la om,” a ti.
9 And when he was departed there, he went into their synagogue:
Te lamloh thoeih tih amamih kah tunim la pawk.
10 And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they might accuse him.
Te vaengah kut khaem hlang pakhat khoem om. Te dongah anih a paelnaeh ham te a dawt uh tih, “Sabbath ah hoeih sak ham tueng a?” a ti nah.
11 And he said to them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?
Tedae amih te, “Nangmih khuikah tu pakhat mai khaw aka khueh hlang om a te? Te te Sabbath ah rhom khuila cungku koinih lo pawt vetih doek mahpawt a?
12 How much then is a man better than a sheep? Why it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.
Hlang he tu lakah muep tanglue ta. Te dongah Sabbath ah a then saii he tueng ta,” a ti nah.
13 Then says he to the man, Stretch forth your hand. And he stretched it forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.
Te phoeiah tekah hlang te, “Na kut te yueng lah,” a ti nah tih koe a yueng. Te vaengah khat ben kah bangla a then la a hoeih pah.
14 Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.
Tedae Pharisee rhoek tah cet uh tih anih te poci sak hamla dawtletnah a khueh uh.
15 But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from there: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;
Jesuh loh a ming vaengah te lamloh khoe uh. Te vaengah anih te hlangping loh muep a vai. Te dongah amih te boeih a hoeih sak.
16 And charged them that they should not make him known:
Tedae amah te mingpha la saii pawt ham amih te a uen.
17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying,
Te daengah ni tonghma Isaiah loh a thui tih,
18 Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit on him, and he shall show judgment to the Gentiles.
Ka sal he ne, anih ni ka coelh. Anih soah ka thintlo ka hinglu loh a lungtlun. A pum dongah ka mueihla ka khueh vetih, namtom taengah tiktamnah a thui ni.
19 He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.
Anih long tah oelhtaih mahpawh, hohaem mahpawh. A ol te toltung ah pakhat long khaw ya mahpawh.
20 A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment to victory.
Tiktamnah te voelphoengnah la a khuen hlan atah capu aka paep te khaem pawt vetih thut aka nap khaw thih mahpawh.
21 And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
A ming te khaw namtom rhoek loh a ngaiuep ni,” a ti te a soep eh.
22 Then was brought to him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, so that the blind and dumb both spoke and saw.
Te phoeiah rhaithae a kaem olmueh mikdael te a taengla a khuen uh tih anih te a hoeih sak. Te daengah olmueh te cal thai tih kho a hmuh thai.
23 And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?
Te vaengah hlangping khaw boeih limlum uh tih, “Anih he David capa la om mai khaming,” a ti uh.
24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow does not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.
Tedae Pharisee rhoek loh a yaak uh vaengah, “Anih tah rhaithae rhoek kah boei Belzebul nen pawt koinih rhaithae he haek mahpawh,” a ti uh.
25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
Amih kah poeknah te a hmuh vaengah, “Amamih aka paekboe ram tah boeih poci tih, amamih aka paekboe khopuei neh im boeih tah cak mahpawh.
26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?
Satan loh Satan te haek koinih amah neh amamih paekboe uh ni ta. Te vaengah a ram loh metlam a pai eh?
27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges.
Kai loh Beezebul rhangneh rhaithae ka haek koinih, na ca rhoek tah u rhangnen lae a haek uh. He dongah amih tah nangmih kah laitloekkung la om uh ni.
28 But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come to you.
Tedae Pathen Mueihla rhangneh kai loh rhaithae ka haek atah nangmih taengah Pathen kah ram ha pai coeng dongah ni.
29 Or else how can one enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house.
Aka tlung te lamhma la a pin pawt atah metlam lae aka tlung kah im khuila a kun vetih hnopai te a poelyoe pah thai eh? a pin phoei daengah ni im te a muk eh.
30 He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathers not with me scatters abroad.
Kai taengah aka om pawt tah kai neh hlihloeh la om tih, kai taengah aka cut pawt loh a thaek.
31 Why I say to you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven to men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven to men.
He dongah nangmih taengah kan thui, tholhnah neh soehsalnah cungkuem dongah hlang he dongah hlah pah ni, tedae, Mueihla ben kah soehsalnah tah tholh hlah mahpawh.
32 And whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whoever speaks against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come. (aiōn g165)
Hlang capa te ol aka tha thil te khaw dongah hlah pueng ni. Tedae Mueihla Cim te aka cal thil te tah tahae tue neh aka lo ham dongah khaw anih te tholh hlah pah mahpawh. (aiōn g165)
33 Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.
Thing then loh a thaih a then sak tih thing thae loh a thaih a thae sak. Te dongah thing he a thaih loh a mingpha sak.
34 O generation of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
Rhulthae rhoek kah casak rhoek, a thae la na om uh lalah metlamlae a then te na thui uh thai eh. Thinko kah a baecoih te na ka loh a thui.
35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart brings forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things.
Hlang then loh khohrhang then khuikah a then a sat tih, hlang thae loh khohrhang thae khuikah a thae a sat.
36 But I say to you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui, palyal olka aka thui rhoek boeih te laitloeknah khohnin ah hlang loh te ham te olka a thuung uh ni.
37 For by your words you shall be justified, and by your words you shall be condemned.
Na ol loh n'tang sak vetih na ol loh n'boe sak ni,” a ti nah.
38 Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from you.
Te phoeiah cadaek rhoek hlangvang neh Pharisee rhoek loh Jesuh te a doo uh tih, “Saya nang taengkah miknoek hmuh ham ka ngaih uh,” a ti na uh.
39 But he answered and said to them, An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:
Tedae amih te a doo tih, “Boethae neh samphaih cadil rhoek loh miknoek tlap cakhaw, tonghma Jonah kah miknoek pawt atah miknoek m'pae mahpawh.
40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Jonah tah nga bung khuiah khothaih hnin thum neh khoyin hnin thum a om bangla hlang capa tah diklai ko khuiah khothaih hnin thum neh khoyin hnin thum om van ni.
41 The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.
Laitloeknah hnin ah Nineveh hlang rhoek tah hekah cadil taengah pai uh vetih a boe sak ni. Jonah kah olhoe dongah amih yut uh. Tedae hekah aka om he Jonah lakah len dae ta he.
42 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
Tuithim boeinu tah Solomon kah cueihnah hnatun hamla diklai bawt lamkah loh ha pawk dongah tahae kah cadil he laitloeknah ah a pai thil vetih a boe sak ni. Tedae heah he Solomon lakah aka len om dae ta he.
43 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walks through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none.
Mueihla thae loh hlang lamkah a coe phoeiah tuihang hmuen boeih ah cet tih duemnah a toem dae hmu pawh.
44 Then he says, I will return into my house from where I came out; and when he is come, he finds it empty, swept, and garnished.
Te vaengah ka caeh tangtae te ka im la ka bal ni a ti. Te dongah, a pawk vaengah hoeng, nawt tangtae neh, khoem tangtae, la a hmuh.
45 Then goes he, and takes with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also to this wicked generation.
Te phoeiah cet tih amah lakah aka thae mueihla a tloe parhih te amah taengla a khuen. Te phoeiah te rhoek ah kun uh tih kho a sak. Te dongah te hlang te lamhma kah lakah a hnukkhueng kah a om te thae. Tahae kah cadil he khaw rhaithae lam ni a om tangkhuet eh,” a ti. p
46 While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brothers stood without, desiring to speak with him.
Hlangping te a voek li vaengah a manu neh a mana rhoek loh anih te voek ham a toem uh tih poeng ah pakcak pai uh.
47 Then one said to him, Behold, your mother and your brothers stand without, desiring to speak with you.
Te dongah pakhat loh, “Na nu neh na mana rhoek loh nang voek ham n'toem tih poeng ah pai uh ke,” a ti nah.
48 But he answered and said to him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brothers?
Te dongah amah aka voek te, “Unim kai manu? U rhoek nim kai mana rhoek?” a ti nah.
49 And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brothers!
Te phoeiah a hnukbang rhoek taengla a kut a yueng tih, “Kai manu neh kai mana rhoek la he.
50 For whoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
Vaan kah a Pa kongaih aka saii te tah ka manuca neh ngannu nganca neh manu la om,” a ti nah.
