Luke 20
1 One of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and publishing the good tidings, the chief priests, and the scribes, with the elders, came upon him,
Hnin at ah bawkim khuikah pilnam te a thuituen tih olthangthen a phong vaengah khosoihham rhoek, cadaek rhoek neh patong rhoek loh a pai thiluh.
2 saying, Tell us by what authority you do these things; or who is he that empowered you?
Te vaengah anih te a voek uh tih, “Mebang saithainah nen lae na saii he kaimih taengah thui lah? He saithainah he nang aka paek om nim,” a ti nauh.
3 He answering, said to them, I also have a question to put to you. Tell me, then,
Te dongah amih te a doo tih, “Nangmih te ol pakhat kan dawt saeh lamtah kai n'doo uh.
4 Was the commission which John had to immerse, from heaven, or from men?
Johan kah baptisma tah vaan lamkah a, hlang lamkah a a om?” a ti nah.
5 But they reasoned thus among themselves, If we say, From heaven, he will reply, Why, then, did you not believe him?
Amih long khaw amamih te poek uh tih, “Vaan lamkah n'ti uh koinih, 'Balae tih anih te na tangnah uh pawh,’ a ti veh.
6 And if we say, From men, all the people will stone us; for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
'Hlang lamkah loh, ' n'ti bal nim te pilnam pum loh mamih he n'dae veh,” a ti uh. Johan te tonghma aka om la ana pang uh.
7 They therefore answered, that they could not tell whence.
Te dongah, “Me lamkah nim, ka ming pawh,” a ti uh.
8 Jesus replied, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te, “Kai loh mebang saithainah neh ka saii khaw nangmih taengah ka thui mahpawh,” a ti nah.
9 Then he spoke to the people this parable: A man planted a vineyard, and farmed it out, and having traveled, continued long abroad.
Te dongah pilnam taengah hekah nuettahnah he a tong tih, “Hlang pakhat loh dum a tue tih lotawn a phaam sak. Te phoeiah amah te kum a sen puet vik yiin.
10 The season being come, he sent a servant to the husbandmen, to receive of the produce of the vineyard; but they beat him, and sent him back empty.
A tue vaengah tah dum kah a thaih te amah taengah ham pae uh saeh tila sal pakhat te lotawn rhoek taengla a tueih. Tedae lotawn rhoek loh anih te a boh uh tih a tling la a tueih uh.
11 Afterward, he sent another servant, whom they, having beaten, and used shamefully, also sent away empty.
Te phoeiah sal a tloe a rhaep la a tueih bal. Tedae anih a boh uh tih yah a bai phoeiah a tling la a tueih uh.
12 He afterward dispatched a third to them. Him, likewise, they wounded and drove away.
A pathum nen khaw a rhaep tih a tueih dae te khaw hmalaem la a haek uh.
13 Then the proprietor of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; they will surely reverence him, when they see him.
Te dongah dum boei loh, 'Balae ka saii eh? Ka capa thintlo he ka tueih eh?, anih tah a yahnah uh kaming,’ a ti.
14 But when then husbandmen saw him, they reasoned thus among themselves, This is the heir, come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be our own.
Tedae anih te lotawn rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah khat neh khat dawtlet uh thae tih, 'Rhopangkung tah anih coeng ni, anih he ngawn uh sih, te vaengah rho te mamih ham om saeh,’ a ti uh.
15 And having thrust him out of the vineyard, they killed him. What, therefore, will the proprietor of the vineyard do to them?
Te dongah anih te a vai uh tih dum voelah a gawnuh. Te vaengah dum boei loh amih te metlam a saii eh?
16 He will come and destroy those husbandmen, and give the vineyard to others. And some of his hearers said, God forbid.
Tedae amih lotawn rhoek te a paan vetih a poci sak ni, dum te khaw a tloe taengla a paek ni,” a ti nah. A yaak uh vaengah, “A coeng moenih,” a ti uh.
17 Jesus, looking on them, said, What, then, means that expression of scripture, "A stone which the builders rejected, is made the head of the corner.
Tedae Jesuh loh amih te a sawt tih, “A daek tangtae he balae aka om bal pueng. Im aka sa rhoek loh a hnawt lungto te, imkil a soi la pawk ta.
18 Whosoever shall fall upon that stone, shall be bruised; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will crush him to pieces"?
Tekah lungto aka tlak thil boeih te tah tlawt uh vetih, amah a tlak thil atah amah te tip ni,” a ti nah.
19 At that time, the chief priests and the scribes, knowing that he had spoken this parable against them, would have laid hands on him, but feared the people.
Te dongah cadaek rhoek neh khosoihham rhoek long tah amah vaengah Jesuh te kut hlah thil ham a mae uh. He nuettahnah he amih a thui thil te a ming uh ngawn dae pilnam te khaw koek a rhih uh.
20 And they watched him, and set spies upon him, instructing them to personate conscientious men, and surprise him in his words, that they might deliver him to the power and authority of the procurator.
Anih aka dawn rhoek te a huep la a tueih uh tih amamih te a dueng la om ham sa uh. Te vaengah a ol tuuk pah ham, Jesuh te boeilu neh khoboei kah saithainah dongah voeih hamla caiuh.
21 These accosted him with this question, Rabbi, we know that you speak and teach uprightly, and that, without respect of persons, you faithfully recommend the way of God.
Te dongah Jesuh te a dawt uh tih, “Saya, nang loh buelh buelh na thui tih na thuituen dongah maelhmai na dan pawt te ka ming uh. Tedae Pathen kah oltak longpuei ah ni na thuituen.
22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Cesar, or not?
Kaisar taengah mangmu paek he mamih ham thuem a, thuem pawt a?” a ti nauh.
23 He perceiving their subtlety, answered,
Tedae amih kah rhaithinah te a hmat dongah amamih te,
24 Why would you entangle me? Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription has it? They answered, Cesar's.
“Denarii pakhat te kai n'tueng uh lah, u kah muei neh ming lae aka om,” a ti nah hatah, “Kaisar kah,” a ti uh.
25 He replied, Render, therefore, to Cesar, that which is Cesar's, and to God, that which is God's.
Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te, “Kaisar koe te Kaisar taengla, Pathen koe te Pathen taengla mael uh,” a ti nah.
26 Thus they could not surprise him in his discourses before the people; wherefore, admiring his answer, they kept silence.
Tedae pilnam hmaiah anih ol tuuk pah ham coeng uh voel pawh. A ollannah te khaw a ngaihmang uh tih a kam a khuem uh. Sadducees neh Thohkoepnah
27 Afterward, some of the Sadducees, who deny a future state, came to him
Thohkoepnah om pawh tila boe aka koek Sadducee hlangvang long khaw a paan uh tih a dawt uh.
28 with this question: Rabbi, Moses has enjoined in his writings, that a man whose brother dies childless, outlived by his wife, shall marry the widow, and raise issue to his brother.
Te vaengah, “Saya, Moses loh kaimih ham a daek coeng, pakhat te a maya loh yuu a khueh tih a duek vaengah cakol la a om atah a yuu te a mana loh lo saeh lamtah a mayaa ham a tiingan thoh pah saeh,’ a ti.
29 Now there were seven brothers; the first of whom, having taken a wife, died childless;
Te vaengah boeinaphung parhih lo uh tih, lamhma loh yuu a loh dae cakol la duek.
30 the second married the widow, and also died childless;
Te phoeiah a pabae loh a pathum loh huta te a loh.
31 the third married her, as did likewise the rest; and all seven died, leaving no children.
Te vanbangla a parhih long khaw camoe om mueh la a caehtak tih duek bal.
32 Last of all, the woman also died.
A hnukkhueng ah huta te khaw duek.
33 To which of them, therefore, will she be wife, at the resurrection; for she had been married to all the seven?
Thohkoepnah dongah huta te u kah yuu lam lae a om eh? Parhih loh anih te yuu la a khueh uh tih,” a ti nauh.
34 Jesus answering, said to them, The people of this world marry, and are given in marriage; (aiōn g165)
Te dongah amih te Jesuh loh, “Ta kumhal kah camoe rhoek loh yuloh rhaihlan neh om uh. (aiōn g165)
35 but, among them who shall be honored to share in the resurrection, and the other world, there will be neither marrying nor giving in marriage; (aiōn g165)
Kumhal kah te dang ham neh duek lamkah loh thohkoepnah dongkah aka tiing rhoek long tah yuu a loh, va a sak uh moenih. (aiōn g165)
36 for they can not die any more; because, like the angels, they are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
Vaanpuencawn la a om uh dongah koep duek ham khaw om pawh. Pathen kah a ca la om uh tih thohkoepnah kah a ca la poeh uh bal.
37 But that the dead are raised, even Moses has suggested, calling the Lord who appeared in the bush, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
Tedae aka duek rhoek a thoh te Moses loh tangpuem taengah ana phoe pataeng coeng. Te vanbangla Boeipa te Abraham Pathen, Isaak Pathen neh Jakob Pathen ana ti coeng.
38 Now he is not a God of the dead, but of the living; for they are all alive to him.
Tedae aka duek rhoek kah pawt tih aka hing rhoek kah Pathen ni, anih dongah ni boeih a hing uh,” a ti nah.
39 Then some of the scribes said to him, Rabbi, you have spoken well.
Cadaek hlangvang rhoek loh a doo tih, “Saya, buelh na thui coeng,” a ti nah.
40 After that, they did not venture to ask him any more questions.
Amah te dawt ham ngaingaih uh voel pawh.
41 And he said to them, Why is it affirmed that the Messiah must be a son of David?
Jesuh loh amih te, “Metlamlae Khrih te, 'David capa ni,’ a ti uh?
42 Yet David himself says, in the book of the Psalms, "The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand,
David amah loh Tingtoeng cabu dongah a thui tah, 'Boeipa loh ka boeipa taengah,
43 till I make thy foes thy footstool."
na rhal te na kho ham khotloeng la ka khueh hlan atah kai kah bantang ah ngol dae,’ a ti,'
44 As David thus calls him his Lord, how can he be David's son?
David loh anih te Boeipa la a khue atah metlamlae a capa la a om eh?” a ti nah.
45 Then, in the audience of all the people, he said to his disciples,
Pilnam boeih kah a yaak ah a hnukbang rhoek te,
46 Beware of the scribes, who love to walk in robes, and affect salutations in public places, and the principal seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost places at feasts;
“Cadaek rhoek te ngaithuen uh, hnikul neh pongpa aka ngaih uh tih hnoyoih hmuen kah toidalnah, tunim ah ngolhmuen then, buhkung kah hmuensang a lungnah uh.
47 who devour the families of widows, and make long prayers for a disguise. These shall suffer the severest punishment.
Amih loh nuhmai rhoek kah im te a yoop pa uh tih mueituengnah ham khing thangthuiuh. He rhoek long ni laitloeknah muep a yook eh?,” a ti nah.
