Matthew 12
1 At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.
Jesuh sabbath mhnüp üng loma lama cit se, axüisaw he ami ei ngaih u lü lomaa cangvüi kpyat lü eikie.
2 But when the Pharisees saw [it], they said unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.
Pharise he naw ami jah hmuh üng, Jesuh üng, “Tenga, sabbath mhnüp üng jeih vai sü, am pawh vai na xüisawe naw pawh ve u” ti lü ami pyen.
3 But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hungred, and they that were with him;
Jesuh naw, “Davit a ei ngaih lü a khyang he am i pawhkie ti cangcim üng am nami kheh khawiki aw?
4 How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests?
Pamhnama ima lut u lü Pamhnam üng peta muk, ktaiyü he däk naw va eia nglawiki. Amimia eia am nglawiki a khyang he am eikie.
5 Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
Am ani üng, ktaiyü he sabbath mhnüp üng khut ami pawh msawk üng pi mkhyekiea am jah ngaih, ti cangcim üng am nami khe khawiki aw?
6 But I say unto you, That in this place is [one] greater than the temple.
Acunsepi ka ning jah mthehki, ngpumima kthaka daw bawki hia ve ve,
7 But if ye had known what [this] meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
“Ngkengtaihnaka kdama mpyeneinak ngaih veng” ti nami ksinga ta ngsungpyunkie am nami jah mkatei khai sü.
8 For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.
Isetiüng ta, “Khyanga capa cun sabbatha Bawi ni” a ti.
9 And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:
Jesuh acun üngka naw cit lü, ami sinakoka lutki.
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.
Acuia akutxo a na veki. Ami mkatei vaia phäha, “Sabbath mhnüp üng mdawnak bea khut pawh nglawiki aw?” ti lü ami kthäh.
11 And he said unto 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?
Jesuh naw, “Nangmi üngka mata toca mat däk a tak sabbath mhnüp üng khuia k’uma kya se am na lo be khai aw, na hawihin khai aw.
12 How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.
To mata kthaka khyang mat sabbath mhnüp üng mdaw be vai cun daw bawki. Acunakyase, mi Thum üng pi sabbath mhnüp üng khyang mat kuei vai hin nglawiki ni” a ti.
13 Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched [it] forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.
Acunkäna Jesuh naw akutxo üng, “Na kut sänga” ti se, a kut a säng ja a kut akce mäiha daw law beki.
14 Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.
Acunüng Pharise he akcea cit u lü Jesuh ami mkhyüh vaia cengkie.
15 But when Jesus knew [it], he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;
Jesuh naw ami hnim hlü cun a ksingei üng, akcea jah ceh ta se khyangpä naw läki he. Mhnatei nakütki a jah mdaw be.
16 And charged them that they should not make him known:
Jesuh naw ania mawng i käh ami kcüinak vaia a jah mtheh.
17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,
Acun cun Pamhnam naw a pyensak sahma Hesajah naw a na pyen a kümceinak vaia kyaki.
18 Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles.
“Tenga, ka mpya, ka xü cen, ka kphyanak ja ka mlunga jenak. Ka ngmüimkhya a khana ka tüih khai, ani naw ngthumkhyahnak cun khyangmjüe üng jah mtheh khai.
19 He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.
Ngpyang lü ngcuhpüi am ve, u naw a kthai lama käh ngja khai.
20 A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.
Ngkunkia kyaicung käh k’ekbät lü, meisui mkhu pi käh mthih khai. Ngpyunnak a ngnäng veia,
21 And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
A ngming üng khyang he naw äpeinak ta khaie.
22 Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.
Acunüng khawyaia venak a mik mü lü am ngthuhei theiki khyang mat ami lawpüi Jesuh naw mdaw be se, ngthuhei lü hmuh law be theiki.
23 And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?
Khyangpäe naw Jesuha pawh cun hmu lü müncan law u lü, “Hina khyang hin Davita capa ni khawh khai aw?”
24 But when the Pharisees heard [it], they said, This [fellow] doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.
Pharise he naw acun ami ngjak üng, “Hina khyang naw Beelzebul yaiea mkhawnga pet johit am yaie jah ksät ve” ami ti.
25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
Jesuh naw ami cungaih jah ksing lü, “Aia pe pi animäte ngcawhkie cun khawvei am kham lü ngtai khawikie. Aia mlüh pi imbung üng pi, animäte ngcawhkie cun am ngsawn khawi u.”
26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?
Acunüng khawyai naw khawyai a ksät üng, amät naw amät mtaikia kya se, ikba a khaw ngsawng khawh khai ni?
27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast [them] out? therefore they shall be your judges.
Nangmi naw Beelzebul yai mkhawnga na pet johit am yaie ka jah ksät vaia nami pyenki. Acun a ni üng, u naw nami hnukläke üng jah ksätnaka johit jah peki ni? Nami hnukläke naw nami mkhye ngdangsak ve u, a ti.
28 But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.
Am ni, Beelzebula johit am ni. Mhnama ngmüimkhyaa johit am ka jah ksät üng va Pamhnama Khaw nami khana pha lawki.
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.
Am ani üng u naw khyang kyan yüi üng am pin ma lü, a ima ka khawhkhyame jah loei thei khai ni?
30 He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.
Au pi, kei da am veki cun kei na hnengki ni. Kei am alanga am na mcunpüiki cun ngphyüingphyakia kyaki ni.
31 Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy [against] the [Holy] Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.
Acunakyase ka ning jah mthehki, mkhyekatnak naküt ja, Pamhnam ksekha nakie cun jah mhläta kya khai. Cunsepi Ngmüimkhya Ngcim ksekhanaki cun mhlät theia am kya.
32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the [world] to come. (aiōn g165)
Aupi Khyanga Capa mkhyekat na lü ksekhanaki cun mhläta kya khai. Cunsepi Ngmüimkhya Ngcim ksekhanaki cun tuh pi ngawia pi mhlät theia am kya. (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.
Akthei üng a thing ksing theia kya se, akthei a daw üng a thing daw lü, akthei a set üng a thing seki ti nami ksing vai.
34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
Kphyuksee aw, ihawkba se u lü akdaw nami pyen thei khai ni? Mlung üng veki va mpyawng üng lut law khawiki.
35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
Khyang kdaw naw a mlung kdaw üngka akdawe jah pyen khawi lü, khyang kse naw a mlung kse üngka aksee jah pyen khawiki.
36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
Ka ning jah mthehki, akse pyenkia khyang naküt a pyena phu cun ngthumkhyahnaka mhnüp üng thung be khai.
37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
Na ngthu naw ning lätsak lü na ngthu bä naw ning mkat khai” a ti.
38 Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee.
Acunüng thum mthei he avang ja Pharise he naw Jesuh üng, “Saja aw, müncankse mat na pawh kami hmuh hlüki” ti lü tä u se,
39 But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:
Jesuh naw, “Tuh kän khyang he ihlawka se lü mtuihmlehkie ni. Nangmi naw müncankse nami täkie aw? Jonaha müncanksea thea i käh ning jah mhnuh vai” a ti.
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 nganua k’uma mhnüp kthum ja mthan kthum a vea mäiha khyanga capa pi mdek k’uma mhnüp kthum ja mthan kthum ve khai.
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.
Ninevih mlüha khyang he naw ngthumkhyahnaka mhnüp üng ngdüi u lü ning jah mtai law khaie. Isetiüng Jonaha ngthu pyena phäh ami mkhyenak üngka naw ngjutkie. Teng u, Jonaha kthaka kyäp bawkie ve ve u.
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.
Ngthumkhyahnaka mhnüp üng Sheba Sangpuxangnu naw ngdüi lü ning jah cijang law khai. Ani cun Solamona themngvainak ngai khaia athuknak a khaw üngka naw lawki. Teng ua, Solamona kthaka kyäp bawki hia ve khü.
43 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.
Ngmüimkhyakse khyang üngka naw a lut law üng, mkyanga a hüieinak vai hnün sui hü lü am hmu lü,
44 Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth [it] empty, swept, and garnished.
“ka venak kphyüm ima ka cit be khai” ti lü a ceh be üng, a na ngcim lü a na phephaih, a na ngkhämtawng se a hmuh.
45 Then goeth he, and taketh 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 unto this wicked generation.
Cit be lü amäta kthaka se bawkia ngmüimkhya ksee khyüh jah khü law se lut u lü, acuia awmki he. Acunüng, acuna khyang üng kya law khai cun akma kaa kthaka kyühkse bawki ni. Acukba tukbäih hina khyang ksee üng pi thawn law hnga khai” a ti.
46 While he yet talked to the people, behold, [his] mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him.
Acukba khyang khawhahea veia a ngthuei k'um üng a nu ja a benae naw ami ngthuheipüi vaia sui hü u lü kpunga ngdüikie.
47 Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee.
Acunüng mat naw, “Tenga na nu ja na benae naw ning ngthuei hlüpüi lü kpunga ngdüi ve u” ti lü a mtheh.
48 But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?
Jesuh naw, “U ni ka nu, ue ni ka benae cun” a ti.
49 And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!
Acunüng Jesuh naw axüisaw he maa a kut säng lü, “Hine hin ka nu ja ka benae ni.”
50 For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
Au pi, ka pa khankhawa kaa ngjak hlü pawhki naküt cun ka benae, ka cinae ja ka nua kyaki he ni” a ti.
