Mark 12
1 And He began to speak to them in allegories: “A man planted a vineyard, and put a hedge around, and dug a wine vat, and built a tower, and gave it out to farmers, and went abroad;
Acunüng Jesuh naw msuimcäpnak am ami veia ngthu pyen lü, “Khyang mat naw capyit nglin lü, ngvawng lü, capyittui msawihnak vai khui co lü, ngängnak vaia im sa lü, lokbi he üng jah khah lü, a im ceh ta lü kdunglawngki.
2 and he sent to the farmers at the due time a servant, that from the farmers he may receive from the fruit of the vineyard,
Capyit kbih kcün üng capyit ngvawng ngängki hea veia a m'ya mat capyitkthei a yah vai la khaia a tüih.
3 and they, having taken him, severely beat [him], and sent him away empty.
Capyit ngängki he naw m'ya cun man u lü kpaiki he naw a jünga ami tüih be.
4 And again he sent to them another servant, and having cast stones at that one, they wounded [him] in the head, and sent [him] away—dishonored.
Acunüng capyit ngvawng mah naw a m'ya akce ami veia a tüih be; acun pi a lu kpai u lü, am hmuhtheh phyakia pawh u lü, ami tüih be.
5 And again he sent another, and that one they killed; and many others, some beating, and some killing.
Acunüng ngvawng mah naw akce ami veia tüih be tü se, ani cun hnim u lü, acunkba bäa akce he pi avang jah kpai u lü, avang ami jah hnim.
6 Having yet therefore one son—his beloved—he also sent him to them last, saying, They will respect my son;
A tüih vai mat däng awmki cun amäta jawngnak leng lenga a capa mat dänga kyaki. Anghnua a capa cun ngvawng kngängea veia a tüih. ‘Hina ka capa ta leisawng khai hea ngsingki ni’ a ti.
7 and those farmers said among themselves, This is the heir, come, we may kill him, and the inheritance will be ours;
Cunsepi capyit ngvawng ngängki he naw, ‘Hin hin ngvawng maha capa va ni kbak. Law ua, mi hnim u lü, a khawh mi ka na vai’ tia pyen u lü,
8 and having taken him, they killed, and cast [him] forth outside the vineyard.
acunkba manki he naw hnim u lü capyit ngvawng kpunga ami tawnin.
9 What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.
Acunüng capyit ngvawng mah naw i ti law khai? Ngvawng mah law lü ngvawng ngängki he jah hnim lü capyit ngvawng cun akce he üng jah pe khai.
10 And this Writing you did not read: A stone that the builders rejected, it became the head of a corner;
‘Sawngsaki he naw ami yawka lung cun, avana kthaka kyäp law be säihki ni.
11 this was from the LORD, and it is wonderful in our eyes.”
Ahin cun Bawipa pawha kyaki; ihlawka mi ma kyühkse vaia kyaki ni’ ti hin cangcim üng am nami kheh khawiki aw?” a ti.
12 And they were seeking to lay hold on Him, and they feared the multitude, for they knew that He spoke the allegory against them, and having left Him, they went away;
Acunüng Judah mkhawng he naw amimi a jah pyennaka msuimcäpnak ni ti ksing u lü man khai hea ami bü. Cunsepi khyang he jah kyüh u lü yawk u lü ami cehtak.
13 and they send to Him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, that they may ensnare Him in discourse,
Pharise avang he la Heroda khyang üngka he ngthähnak am Jesuh man khai hea Jesuha veia ami jah tüih.
14 and they having come, say to Him, “Teacher, we have known that You are true, and You are not caring for anyone, for You do not look to the face of men, but in truth teach the way of God; is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar or not? May we give, or may we not give?”
A veia law u lü, “Saja aw, nang cun u pi am na cäinaki, khyang naw hawkba a ning ngaih pi am cäi na lü, khyanga hmai am teng lü, nghnicima phäha Pamhnama ngthungtak ngjak hlü na jah mtheiki ti kami ksingki. Romah Sangpuxang üng ngcawn pet vai hin mi thum üng nglawiki aw? Pet vai aw am pet vai aw?” jah mtheha ami ti.
15 And He, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you tempt Me? Bring Me a denarius, that I may see”;
Jesuh naw ami hleihlaknak jah ksing lü, “Ivaia nami na mhnüteiki he ni? Denarih ngui na pe law ua, teng vang,” a ti.
16 and they brought, and He says to them, “Whose [is] this image, and the inscription?” And they said to Him, “Caesar’s”;
Denarih ngui mat a veia lawpüi u se Jesuh naw, “Hin hin ua müihmai la ua ngming ni?” ti se amimi naw, “Empero” ami ti.
17 and Jesus answering said to them, “Give back the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God”; and they wondered at Him.
Acunüng Jesuh naw jah msang lü, “Emperoa ka Empero üng pe u lü, Mhnama ka Mhnam üng pe ua,” ti se, Ami van cäi lawki he.
18 And the Sadducees come to Him, who say there is not a resurrection, and they questioned Him, saying,
Acunüng Saduke he avang thihnak üngka naw thawhnak be am ve tikie Jesuha veia law u lü,
19 “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if anyone’s brother may die, and may leave a wife, and may leave no children, that his brother may take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.
“Saja aw, Mosi naw mi phäha thum a yuknak üng, ‘Khyang naw am ca lü a khyu a thih tak üng a na naw a ktaia cangsawn am düt khaia, acuna hmeinu cun a khäm be vai a ti.’
20 There were then seven brothers, and the first took a wife, and dying, he left no seed;
Bena khyüh awmki he; axüngvai he säih khyumahki am ca mah lü thiki.
21 and the second took her, and died, not having left seed, and the third in like manner,
Acunüng anghngihnak naw nghnumi a khäm be ani pi am ca lü thiki. Akthumnak naw acunkba bäa khämki naw am ca lü a thihtak.
22 and the seven took her, and left no seed, last of all the woman also died;
Acukba ami van naw ami khäm be; ami khyüh am ca u lü thiki he. Anghnua nghnumi pi thiki.
23 in the resurrection, then, whenever they may rise, of which of them will she be wife—for the seven had her as wife?”
Thikie thawhnak bea mhmüp üng ami thawh law be üng nghnumi cun ua khyua kya khai ni, ami khyüh naw ami khyunaka kyaki,” ami ti.
24 And Jesus answering said to them, “Do you not go astray because of this, not knowing the Writings, nor the power of God?
Jesuh naw jah msang lü, “Ihlawka nami hmaki he! Ise am nami ksing ni tia kyaküng, Mhnama johit la cangcim am nami ksinga phäha kyaki.
25 For when they may rise out of the dead, they neither marry nor are they given in marriage, but are as messengers who are in the heavens.
Akthi he ami thawh law be üng khankhawngsä hea kba law khai he, ngkhyunglanak am ve be ti khai.
26 And concerning the dead, that they rise: have you not read in the Scroll of Moses (at the bush), how God spoke to him, saying, I [am] the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;
Thihnak üngka naw thawh bea mawnglam: Pamhnam naw Mosi üng, ‘Kei Abrahama Mhnam, Isaka Mhnam, Jakopa Mhnama ka kyaki’ tia a mtheh cen, Mosia cauk üng kpyap meiha a däinaka manwg ng’yuki am nami khe khawiki he aw?
27 He is not the God of dead men, but a God of living men; you then go greatly astray.”
Mhnam cun akthi hea Mhnama am kya, akxüng hea Mhnama kyaki. Aktäa am ngtäikia ngai kyu ve uki,” a ti.
28 And one of the scribes having come near, having heard them disputing, knowing that He answered them well, questioned Him, “Which is the first command of all?”
Ami ngcuhnak ngjaki thum jah mtheiki mat awmki. Jesuh naw Saduke he akdawa jah msangki ti hmu lü ngthäh khaia a veia lawki naw, “Ia ngthupet ni aktung säih?” tia a kthäh law.
29 And Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commands—Hear, O Israel: The LORD is our God, the LORD is one;
Jesuh naw msang lü, “Ngthupet he üngka aktung säih cun, ‘Aw Isarel ngaia! Bawipa mi Pamhnam mat däng ni mi Bawipaakya ve.
30 and you will love the LORD your God out of all your heart, and out of all your soul, and out of all your understanding, and out of all your strength—this [is] the first command;
Bawipa na Pamhnam cun na mlungmthin, na xünnak, na ksingnak la na kyannak avan am na jawngnak vai’ tia kyaki.
31 and the second [is] like [it], this, You will love your neighbor as yourself—there is no other command greater than these.”
Anghngihnak cun: ‘Na impeiloceng namät na jawngnaka kba na jawngnak vai’ tia kyaki. Ahina thea kyäp bawkia ngthupet akce i am ve ti,” a ti.
32 And the scribe said to Him, “Well, Teacher, in truth You have spoken that there is one God, and there is none other but He;
Acunüng thum jah mtheiki naw, “Saja aw, pyen thei veki! na kcang pyen veki, Bawipa däng ni Mhnama akya ve, Ania thea Mhnam akce am ve.
33 and to love Him out of all the heart, and out of all the understanding, and out of all the soul, and out of all the strength, and to love one’s neighbor as one’s self, is more than all the whole burnt-offerings and the sacrifices.”
Nghngicim naw a mlungmthin, a ksingnak la a kyannak avan am Mhnam a jawngnak vaia kyaki; acunüng a impeiloceng, amät a jawngnaka kba a jawngnak vai. Xüngkseie la akce he am Mhnama veia ngkengnak pawha kthaka a mtheh ngjak hin daw bawki ni,” ti lü a pyen.
34 And Jesus, having seen him that he answered with understanding, said to him, “You are not far from the Kingdom of God”; and no one dared question Him anymore.
Thum jah mtheiki naw mcei ye lü msang beki ti Jesuh naw ksing lü, “Nang naw Pamhnama khaw am thuk na veki,” a ti. Acun käna u naw i pi am kthäh dat u.
35 And Jesus answering said, teaching in the temple, “How do the scribes say that the Christ is son of David?
Jesuh naw temple k’uma a jah mthei k’um üng jah kthäh lü, “Mesijah cun Davita mjükphyüi ni tia thum jah mtheiki he naw ihawkba ami ti thei ni?
36 For David himself said in the Holy Spirit, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit on My right hand, Until I place Your enemies—Your footstool;
Ngmüimkhya Ngcim naw pyensak se, Davit amät naw pi pyen lü: ‘Bawipa naw ka Bawipa veia: Na ye he na khawkunga ka jah tak law vei däa, ka kpat da ngawa’ a ti ni?
37 therefore David himself calls Him Lord, and from where is He his son?” And the great multitude were hearing Him gladly,
Davit amät ye naw, ‘Bawipa’; tia a khü hin ihawkba a mjükphyüia kya khai ni?” a ti. Acunüng khyang khawjah naw jekyai u lü ami ngaih.
38 and He was saying to them in His teaching, “Beware of the scribes who will to walk in long robes, and love salutations in the marketplaces,
Acukba a jah mthei k’um üng Jesuh naw, “Thum jah mtheiki he jah cäiei na ua, suisak akkyu suisa u lü ami ngtaw hü vai jawngnaki he, jawituknaka khyang hea jah mhlünmtai vai ngaihki he.
39 and first seats in the synagogues, and first couches at the banquets,
Sinakoka ngawhnak akdaw säih ja buh pawhnaka hmün akdaw säih ngjahlüki he.
40 who are devouring the widows’ houses, and for a pretense are making long prayers; these will receive more abundant judgment.”
Hmeinu hea khawhthem ei aw u lü, khyang hleihlaknak vaia aksoa ktaiyüki he. Ahin he naw mkhuimkhanak khamei däm khai he,” a ti.
41 And Jesus having sat down opposite the treasury, was beholding how the multitude puts brass into the treasury, and many rich were putting in much,
Jesuh cun khawhthem ami petnaka peia ngaw lü, khyang he naw ihawkba khawhthem pung k’uma ami ktawk jah tengki. Aktäa bawimangki he naw ngui khawjah ktawki he.
42 and having come, a poor widow put in two mites, which are a penny.
Acunüng hmeinu m'yenkse mat naw law lü, tangka ajawca nghngih a ktawk law.
43 And having called near His disciples, He says to them, “Truly I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all those putting into the treasury;
Acunüng Jesuh naw axüisaw he atänga jah khü lü, “Akcanga ka ning jah mthehki, hina hmeinu m'yenkse naw pung üng akdäm bawk pe ve.
44 for all, out of their abundance, put in, but she, out of her want, put in all that she had—all her living.”
Peki he ami van naw ami taka ngui kpawih üngka va peki he; Cunsepi hina hmeinu naw a m'yenksenak üngka a xünnak vaia a takca avan pe ve,” a ti.
