Matthew 11
1 And it came to pass, when Jesus finished directing His twelve disciples, He departed from there to teach and to preach in their cities.
Jesuh loh a hnukbang rhoek hlainit a uen te a khah vaengah, amamih kah khopuei rhoek ah thuituen ham neh hoe ham te te lamloh thoeih.
2 And John having heard in the prison the works of the Christ, having sent two of his disciples,
Te vaengah Khrih kah bibi boeih te Johan loh thongim khui ah a yaak tih a hnukbang rhoek te a tueih.
3 said to Him, “Are You He who is coming, or do we look for another?”
Te vaengah, “Namah ah naka pawk, a tloe a ka lamso eh?,” patoeng a ti nah.
4 And Jesus answering said to them, “Having gone, declare to John the things that you hear and see,
Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Cet uh lamtah na hmuh neh na yaak te Johan taengla puen pa uh.
5 blind receive sight, and lame walk, lepers are cleansed, and deaf hear, dead are raised, and poor have good news proclaimed,
Mikdael loh a hmuh tih aka khaem loh cet coeng. Hmaibae loh cing coeng, hnapang hnalol loh a yaak coeng. Aka duek khaw thoo tih khodaeng taengah olthangthen a phong coeng.
6 and blessed is he who may not be stumbled in Me.”
U khaw kai kongah a khah pawt atah yoethen la om,” a ti nah.
7 And as they are going, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, “What did you go out to the wilderness to view? A reed shaken by the wind?
Amih boeih a caeh uh phoeiah Jesuh loh hlangping taengah Johan kawng te a tong tih, “Ba sawt ham nim khosoek khuila na caeh uh? Yilh loh a hlinghloek capu a?
8 But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Behold, those wearing the soft things are in the kings’ houses.
Tedae ba sawt ham nim na caeh uh? a hnal la aka phuekhlaak hlang te nim? Himbai hnal aka bai ke manghai im ah om uh ke.
9 But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet,
Ba sawt ham nim na caeh uh? Tonghma a? Thuem, nangmih taengah kan thui, anih tah tonghma lakah olpuei ngai ta.
10 for this is he of whom it has been written: Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, who will prepare Your way before You.
‘Nangmih hmai ah kamah kah puencawn ka tueih ke. Anih loh nangmih hmaiah na longpuei a rhoekbah ni,’ tila anih kawng ni ana daek.
11 Truly I say to you, there has not risen, among those born of women, [one] greater than John the Immerser, but he who is least in the kingdom of the heavens is greater than he.
Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui. Huta kah a cun khuiah tuinuem Johan lakah aka tanglue phoe pawh, tedae vaan ram kah a yit koek pataeng anih lakah a tanglue la om.
12 And from the days of John the Immerser until now, the kingdom of the heavens suffers violence, and violent men seize it by force,
Tuinuem Johan tue lamloh tahae duela vaan ram te a ael thil tih, aka aelkung rhoek loh a poelyoe uh.
13 for all the Prophets and the Law prophesied until John,
Johan duela tonghma rhoek neh olkhueng loh boeih a phong coeng.
14 and if you are willing to receive [it], he is Elijah who was about to come;
Tedae doe hamla na ngaih uh koinih, halo hamla aka cai Elijah tah Johan coeng ni.
15 he who is having ears to hear—let him hear.
Hna aka khueh loh ya saeh.
16 And to what will I liken this generation? It is like little children in marketplaces, sitting and calling to others,
Tedae hekah cadil he ba nen lae ka thuidoek lah eh? Hnoyoih hmuen ah ngol uh tih hlang tloe aka khue, aka thui camoe rhoek phek la om.
17 and saying, We piped to you, and you did not dance, we lamented to you, and you did not strike the breast.
Nangmih hamla phavi ka tum uh akhaw na lam uh pawh. Hlo ka hlai akhaw na rhaengsae uh pawh.
18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He has a demon;
Johan ha pawk tih a caak a ok pawt hatah, ‘Rhaithae a kaem a ti uh.
19 the Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold, a man, a glutton, and a wine-drinker, a friend of tax collectors and sinners; and wisdom was justified of her children.”
Hlang capa ha pawk tih a caak a ok hatah, 'Carhut neh yumi hlang la ke, mangmucoi rhoek neh hlangtholh rhoek kah a puei a po,’ a ti uh. Tedae cueihnah khaw a khoboe long ni a tang sak,” a ti nah.
20 Then He began to reproach the cities in which were done most of His mighty works, because they did not convert.
Te phoeiah a thaomnah a kumngai a tueng sak kho rhoek te a yut uh pawt dongah ol a tong tih,
21 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! Because, if in Tyre and Sidon had been done the mighty works that were done in you, long ago in sackcloth and ashes they had converted;
Anunae Khorazim nang te. Anunae Bethsaida nang te, Nangmih taeng ah ka thaomnah ka tueng sak he Tyre neh Sidon ah ka tueng sak koinih tlamhni, hmaiphu neh yut uh dingrhae pawn ni.
22 but I say to you, to Tyre and Sidon it will be more tolerable in [the] day of judgment than for you.
Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui. Laitloeknah khohnin ah Tyre neh Sidon tah nangmih lakah a phoeng la om ni.
23 And you, Capernaum, which were exalted to Heaven, will be brought down to Hades, because if the mighty works that were done in you had been done in Sodom, it had remained to this day; (Hadēs g86)
Kapernaum nang khaw, vaan duela na pomsang uh pawt nim? Saelkhui duela na suntla bitni. Nangmih taengah ka thaomnah ka tueng sak he Sodom ah tueng sak koinih, tihnin duela te om suidae. (Hadēs g86)
24 but I say to you, to the land of Sodom it will be more tolerable in [the] day of judgment than to you.”
Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui. Laitloeknah khohnin ah Sodom kho tah nang lakah a phoeng la om ni,” tila a toel.
25 At that time Jesus answering said, “I confess to You, Father, Lord of the heavens and of the earth, that You hid these things from wise and understanding ones, and revealed them to babies.
Tevaeng tue ah Jesuh loh a doo tih, “A pa, vaan neh diklai kah Boeipa nang kan uem tangkik, he rhoek he hlangcueih neh lungming taeng lamkah loh na thuh tih cahmang rhoek taengah na pumphoe coeng.
26 Yes, Father, because so it was good pleasure before You.
Ue apa na hmaiah kolonah la a om tangloeng dongah ni.
27 All things were delivered to Me by My Father, and none know the Son, except the Father, nor does any know the Father, except the Son, and he to whom the Son may resolve to reveal [Him].
A pa loh kai he a cungkuem la m'paek coeng. Te dongah pa pawt koinih capa te a ming moenih. Capa pawt koinih pakhat long khaw pa te a ming moenih. Tedae u khaw a ngaih atah capa loh a pumphoe pah coeng.
28 Come to Me, all you laboring and burdened ones, and I will give you rest;
Hnorhih rhoek neh thakthae rhoek boeih te kai taengla halo lah, kai loh nangmih te kan duem sak ni.
29 take up My yoke on you, and learn from Me, because I am meek and humble in heart, and you will find rest to your souls,
Ka hnamkun he na pum dongah phuei uh lamtah kamah taeng lamkah he cang uh. Muelhtuet neh thinko tlayae la ka om dongah na hinglu ham duemnah na hmuh uh ni.
30 for My yoke [is] easy, and My burden is light.”
Kai kah hnamkun tah kodam coeng tih ka hnophueih loh a yanghoep la om,” a ti.
