< Matthew 21 >
1 And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Yahushua two disciples,
Jesuh ja axüisaw he Jerusalema law u lü Olip mcung, Betphake ngnam ami pha law üng Jesuh naw, “Axüisaw xawi nghngih maa jah na tüih lü,
2 Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me.
nani maa vekia ngnama cit ni lü, sanghngaksaü mat ja, a ca ami jah kphung nani hmuh khai. Jah sut ni lü ka veia nani jah lawpüi vai.”
3 And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, My master hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
Khyang naw a ning jah kthäh üng, “Bawipanaw jah hlüei ve,” nani ti vai. Acunüng angxita ning jah tüih law khai ni,” a ti.
4 All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
Ahin avan cun sahma naw a na pyen law,
5 Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.
“Zion mlüh üng mtheh ua, Tenga, na Sangpuxang na veia law ve! Ani cun a mlung nem lü sanghngaksaü, ja sanghngaksaüca xawia khana ngcumki,” ti akümkawinak vaia kyaki.
6 And the disciples went, and did as Yahushua commanded them,
Acunüng, axüisaw xawi naw cit ni lü, Jesuh naw a jah mtheha mäiha ani va pawh.
7 And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon.
Sanghngaksaü ja a ca cun jah lawpüi u lü, ami suisake a khana jah mtaikie naw, Jesuh cun a khana ami ngawhsak.
8 And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.
Khyangpänu naw ami suisak lama ami jah phah üng, avang naw nghleng hnahe jah ksawm u lü jah phahkie.
9 And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of YHWH; Hosanna in the highest.
Khyangpä a ma a na citkie ja amät läki he naw, “Hosana Davita Capa, Bawipa ngming am lawki josennak be se! A hlüngnak säih khankhawa Hosana,” ti lü, ngpyangkie.
10 And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?
Jerusalem a pha law üng, mlüh üngka ami van üicai u lü, “Ani u ni?” ti lü pyenkie.
11 And the multitude said, This is Yahushua the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.
Khyangpänu naw, “Hin cun sahma Jesuh, Kalile hne, Nazaret mlüh üngka ni,” ami ti.
12 And Yahushua went into the temple of Elohim, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,
Jesuh Temple k'uma lut lü Temple k’uma jawitukie ja kheikie jah sät lü tangka mhlaikie ja müm jawikiea ngawhnake, avan a jah hukxänin.
13 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.
Acunüng Jesuh naw, “Cangcim üng, ‘Ka im cun ktaiyünak ima sui khaie’ ti lü ng’yuki, nangmi naw mpyukeiea ngthupnak ima pyang ve uki” a ti.
14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.
Amikmü ja akxoe, temple k'uma law u se Jesuh naw a jah mdaw be.
15 And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David; they were sore displeased,
Ktaiyü ngvaie ja Thum mtheie naw müncanksee a pawhmsah ja, hnasene naw, “Hosana Davita Capa,” ti lü, ami ngpyang hmuh u lü aktäa ami mlung soki.
16 And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Yahushua saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?
Jesuh üng, “Amimi naw i pyenkie ti na jah ngjaki aw?” ami ti. Jesuh naw, “Ä, hnasene ja cihtui k’aw naca hea mpyawng üng mhlünmtainak na yahki ni,” ti lü ng’yuki am nami khe khawiki aw?” a ti.
17 And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he lodged there.
Jesuh naw jah hawih hüt lü Bethanih mlüha cit lü acuna mthan cun acuia ipki.
18 Now in the morning as he returned into the city, he hungered.
Ngawilama mlüh da a nghlat law be üng, a ei ngaih lawki.
19 And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away. (aiōn )
Kthei thing lam peia hmu lü kthei thing da cit kyawki, am ngthei lü a hnah däk ve se a hmuh. “Käh ngthei ti sümsüm kawpi,” ti se, acunüng kthei thing cun ngjai lü thiei lawki. (aiōn )
20 And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away!
Axüisawe naw acun ami hmuh üng, “Ihawkba Fik dung akjangnua khyawngei lawki ni?” ti lü müncankie.
21 Yahushua answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.
Jesuh naw jah msang lü, “Akcanga ka ning jah mthehki, jumei kcang lü mlung hlawthlatnak am nami tak üng hina Fikdung däk am ni lü, hina mcung üng, ‘Hin üngka naw ngnawn lü mliktuia kya se’ nami ti üng nami tia mäiha kya khai.”
22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Nami jumei üng nami täsam naküt nami yah khai,” a ti.
23 And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?
Templea law be lü a jah mthei k'um üng, ktaiyü ngvaie ja a xüe a veia law u lü, “Ahin he jah pawh vaia ia ana ja na tak? U naw ahin he na jah pawhak vai ana a ning pet ja?” ti lü ami kthäh.
24 And Yahushua answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Jesuh naw jah msang lü, “Kei pi mat däk ka ning jah kthäh khai. Nami na msang üng, kei naw pi ahin he ka jah pawhnak vaia ia ana ka tak cun ka ning jah mtheh khai.”
25 The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why did ye not then believe him?
Johana a baptican hin hawia khyüh lawki ni? Pamhnam üngkhyüh mä. Khyang üngkhyüh mä” a ti. Amimäte naw ngcuh u lü, “I mi ti khai ni. Pamhnam üngka naw ni” mi ti üng mä, “Ise Johan am nami kcangnaki ni,” ti hlü kbak.
26 But if we shall say, Of men; we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet.
“Khyang üngka naw” mi ti üng pi khyang he naw i ami pawh vai ti kyühei phyaki. Isetiüng, khyang avan naw Johan cun sahma mat ti ksingki he,” ami ti.
27 And they answered Yahushua, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
Jesuh üng, “Am ksing ve u nawng,” ami ti. Jesuh naw, “Kei pi ia ana am ka pawh ti am ning jah mtheh hlü veng,” a ti.
28 But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard.
“Ihawkba nami ngaiki ni? Ahlana nghngih canaki khyang mat veki. Akdäma veia cit lü, “Ka ca aw, tuhngawi ngvawnga cit lü va khüia,” a ti.
29 He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went.
A ca naw, “Kaa! am cit hlü veng,” a ti kyaw, akäna a mlung nglat law be lü citki.
30 And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not.
Acunüng anghngihnaka veia cit lü acukba bäa a mtheh. Ani naw, “Ä ja, cit kawng,” ti lü am cit.
31 Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Yahushua saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of Elohim before you.
Ahin xawi üng u naw ni a paa ngjakhlü a pawh?” a ti. Amimi naw, “Akdäm ni,” ami ti. Acunüng Jesuh naw, “Akcanga ka ning jah mthehki, akhawnkawke ja nghnumi ksee nami maa Pamhnama Khawa lut ve u.”
32 For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.
Isetiüng ta Baptican Johan lam kdaw ning jah mhnuh khaia law se am jumei uki; cunsepi, akhawnkawke ja nghnumi ksee naw ani jumkie. Acun nami hmuh käna pi ngjut lü am jum uki,” a ti.
33 Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:
Jesuh naw, “Msuimcäpnak akce ngai betü ua: khyang mat ngvawngmah veki, acun naw capyit ngvawng pyang lü ngvawng lü capyittui suinak vai khui co lü, ngängnak vai kyäng a sak. Khüikie üng jah khah lü athuknaka khaw kcea kdungki.
34 And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.
Capyit angtheih lawa kcün üng, amäta hama capyit ngthei kbit khai hea a mpyae ngvawng ngängkiea veia a jah tüih.
35 And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
Ngvawng ngängkie naw ngvawngmaha a mpyae jah man u lü mat ami kpaih, mat ami hnim, mat lung am ami vawih.
36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.
Acunüng ngvawngmah naw akcüka kaa kthak nungkia, a mpya kce he a jah tüih betü. Acunsepi acukba kunga ami jah na pawh betü.
37 But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.
Akpäihnaka amäta ca, “Ahin ta leisawng khaie ni, am pawh hngaläk u” ti lü a tüih betü.
38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.
Cunsepi ngvawng ngänge naw ami hmuh üng, “Hin hin ngvawngmaha ca va ni kbak. Law ua mi hnim lü a khawh mi bi vai u,” ti u lü,
39 And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.
man lü ngvawng kpunga xawt lü ami hnimin u.
40 When the master therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
“Tuh ta ngvawngmah a law üng, ngvawng ngängkie cun ihawkba jah pawh khai ni?” a ti.
41 They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
Msang u lü, “Acuna khyang ksee cun jah hnim khaia ngsing ve. Ngvawng pi capyit angthei law kcün üng, tha law khai hea khyang kce he üng jah khah khai,” ami ti.
42 Yahushua saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is YHWH 's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
Jesuh naw “Cangcim naw a pyen am nami khe khawikie aw? “Imksae naw am daw se ami hawiha lung cen, akdaw säih lunga thawn law khawiki. Ahin cun Bawipa naw a pawha kyaki, ahin cun müncan vaia kyaki, ihlawka müncan phyaki ni!”
43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of Elohim shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
Acunakyase, ka ning jah mthehki, “Pamhnama Khaw ning jah hut lü ngtheisak pungpyahsak khaia khyang he üng jah pet vai.
44 And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
“Aupi, hina lung üng kyaki cun khuikhaiei khaia bo vai. Ahina lung naw a kyaknak cun mput khuia thawn khai,” a ti.
45 And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
Ktaiyü ngvaie ja Pharise he naw acuna msuimcäpnak cun ami ngjak üng, amimi a jah tinak ti ksingki he.
46 But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet.
Acunüng, man khai hea ami bü. Cunsepi Jesuh cun sahma tia jumeikia khyangpänu ami jah kyüh.
