Luke 20
1 It happened on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, that the chief priests and scribes came to him with the elders.
Hypoet taw bawkim awh thlang cawngpyi nawh awithang leek ak khypyi li awh, khawsoeih boeikhqi ingkaw anaa awi cawngpyikungkhqi ce a hqamcakhqi mi a venawh law uhy.
2 They asked him, "Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?"
Hana kaw saithainaak ing nu vawhkaw ik-oeihkhqi ve na sai? Anik pekung u aw? kqawn lah,” tina uhy.
3 He answered them, "I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
Anih ing, “Cawhtaw awi pynoet awh ni doet khqi lah vang nyng; kqawn law lah uh,
4 the baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from man?"
Johan a baptisma ve khan ben na kaw nu, am awhtaw thlanghqing ben awhkaw nu?” tinak khqi hy.
5 They reasoned with themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Why did you not believe him?'
Cawh a mimah ce doet qu uhy, Khan benna kaw,” ni ti man, ‘cawhtaw kawtih amna mik cangnaak,’ tina hlyk khqi vik.
6 But if we say, 'From man,' all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet."
Thlanghqing benna kaw ni,’ ni tinaak bai mantaw, Johan ve tawngha ni tinawh thlangkhqi ing ami sim hawh dawngawh, lung ing nik khawng khqi kaw,” ti uhy.
7 They answered that they did not know where it was from.
Cedawngawh a mingmih ing, “Han benna kaw hy voei nu, am sim unyng,” tina uhy.
8 Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."
Jesu ing, “Cawhtaw hana kaw saithainaak ing vawhkaw ik-oeihkhqi ka sai tice ap kqawn hly lawt nyng,” tinak khqi hy.
9 He began to tell the people this parable. "A man planted a vineyard, and rented it out to some farmers, and went on a journey for a long time.
Cekcoengawh vawhkaw nyhtahnaak awi ve thlangkhqi venawh kqawn pek khqi poehoei hy. “Thlang pynoet ing misur dum tahy, a dum ce bibikung thlangkhqi venawh vat nawh amah taw khawk hla na cet valh hy.
10 At the proper season, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat him, and sent him away empty.
Misur bit tym a pha law awhtaw a tyihzawih thlang pynoet ce misur thaih bit aham dum bibikungkhqi venna tyi hy. Cehlai dum bibikungkhqi ing anih ce vyk unawh kut hqawng na tyi uhy.
11 He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
Cekcoengawh tyihzawih ak chang ce tyi bai hy, anih ce awm vyk bai unawh, chahqai phyihkawt na ami thekhanaak coengawh kut hqawng na tyi bai uhy.
12 He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him, and threw him out.
A tyizoeih a pakthumnaak ce tyi bai hy, anih ce awm a leem kqoengna khawng bai uhy.
13 The lord of the vineyard said, 'What am I to do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that they will respect him.'
Cawh misur dum ak ta kung ing, ‘Kaw ka sai lah voei? Kalung naak ka capa man ka tyih hawh kaw; anih taw kqihchah na kawm uh,’ ti hy.
14 "But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'
Cehlai dum bibikungkhqi ing ami huh awh, a mimah ingkaw a mimah ce kqawn uhy. ‘Anih ve qo ak pang hly kawi ni; him unawh taw a qo ce ningnih aham awm seh nyng,’ ti uhy.
15 They threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
Cedawngawh anih ce misur dum a ceng na sawi unawh him uhy. Cawhtaw misur dum ak takung ing a mingmih ce ikawmyihna a saikhqi kaw?
16 He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others." When they heard it, they said, "May it never be."
Dum bibikungkhqi boeih ce a him coengawh misur dum ce thlak chang a kut awh pe kaw,” tinak khqi hy. Ve ak awi ve thlangkhqi ing a ming zaak awh, “Ve myihna koeh awm seh,” ti uhy.
17 But he looked at them, and said, "Then what is this that is written, 'The stone which the builders rejected, the same was made the chief cornerstone?'
Jesu ing a mingmih ce toek khqi nawh, “Cawhtaw vawhkaw kqawn hyt awi: “Ip sakungkhqi ing ami hoet lung ce a kil awh lung ak leek soeih a khoengna awm hy,’ a tive kaw ak kqawn ngaihnaak hy voei aw?
18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will crush him."
U awm ce alung awh ak tlu taw kqek kawm saw, a namkhqi khqoet taw a dik a huina coeng kaw,” tinak khqi hy.
19 The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.
Vawhkaw nyhtahnaak awi ve a mingmih ni ak kqawn sih hy tice ami sim dawngawh, anaa awi cawngpyikung khqi ingkaw khawsoeih boeikhqi ing anih ce tu pahoei aham a lam ce sui uhy. Cehlai thlang kqeeng ce kqih uhy.
20 They watched him, and sent out spies, who pretended to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.
Ak zoei cana qym nawh a thawlhnaak tu peek thainaak aham, thlak leek na ak sa qu, qymkungkhqi ce a venawh tyi uhy. Jesu ak awi kqawnnaak awh a thawlhnaak tu pe nawh saithainaak ak ta qam ukkung a venawh peek thainaak aham teng uhy.
21 They asked him, "Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and are not partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.
Cedawngawh amah ak qymkungkhqi ing doet uhy: “Cawngpyikung, ak thym kqawn nawh thlang cawngpyi hyk ti, u a hai awm a toek kaana awitak ing Khawsa a lam cawngpyi hyk ti tice sim unyng.
22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?"
Kaisar a venawh mangmu peek ve ak thym nu, amak thym nu?” tina uhy.
23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them,
A mingmih a thainaak ce a sim oel oel a dawngawh,
24 "Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?" They answered, "Caesar's."
Ami venawh, “Tangka denari ce nim huh lah uh; uang myihlip ingkaw ming nu ak awm?” tinak khqi hy.
25 He said to them, "Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."
Cekkhqi ing, Karsar, tina uhy. Cekkhqi venawh, “Cawhtaw Kaisar a koe ce Kaisar a venawh pe unawh taw, Khawsa a koe ce Khawsa venawh pe uh,” tinak khqi hy.
26 They weren't able to trap him in his words before the people. And amazed at his answer, they fell silent.
Thlang kqeng a haiawh awi ak kqawnnaak awh a thawlhnaak am tu pe thai uhy. Cekkhqi awi am hlatnaak awh ce amik kawpoek kyi nawh, awm hqoeng uhy.
27 Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
Thawhtlaihnaak am awm hy amik ti Sadusi thlang vang tloek ing Jesu doet aham law uhy.
28 They asked him, "Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's brother dies having a wife, and he is childless, his brother should take the wife, and raise up children for his brother.
A venawh, “Cawngpyi kung, Mosi ing taw ve myihna ca qee hy, 'thlang ing cataak kaana a zu ce a thih taak mai mantaw ana ing anih ce lo kawmsaw ak taai aham ca taak pe kaw,' tihy.
29 There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
Cingnahqui thlang khqih awm uhy. Lamma cyk ing zu lo hlai hy, ca a taak kaana thih tahy.
30 The second and
A pakkhihnaak ing zuna tlaih nawh,
31 the third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
cekcoengawh a pakthumnaak ing zuna tlaih bai hy; ca pynoet awm a taak kaana ak khqihna ce thi boeih uhy.
32 Afterward the woman also died.
A hukhit nataw cawhkaw nu awm thi lawt hy.
33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife."
Cawhtaw, thawh tlaihnaak khawnghi awh cawhkaw nu ce a u mih a zuna nu a awm kaw, khqih ing zuna boeih u saw?” tina uhy.
Jesu ing, “Ve khawmdek thlangkhqi ing zu lo va ta uhy; (aiōn g165)
35 But those who are regarded as worthy of a place in that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given to someone to marry. (aiōn g165)
Cehlai ce a hun awh ak awm kawikhqi taw thlak thi thawh tlaihnaak khawnghi awh zu loh va taak, chungvaa am awm voel hawh kaw, (aiōn g165)
36 For they cannot die any more, for they are like the angels, and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
thi awm am thi voel kawm uh; khan ceityihkhqi amyihna awm kawm usaw; ak tho tlaih cakhqi na ami awm hawh dawngawh Khawsa cakhqi na awm hawh kawm uh.
37 But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord 'The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.'
Thlak thi thawhtlaihna a awmnaak hly Mosi ingawm, thingbup akawng lamawh ce, Bawipa ce, 'Abraham a Khawsa, Isak a Khawsa, Jakob a Khawsa,’ a tinaak awh dang sak hy.
38 Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him."
Anih taw thlak thi Khawsa na am awm nawh, thlak hqing a Khawsa nani a awm, amah awh thlang boeih ce hqing hy,” tinak khqi hy.
39 Some of the scribes answered, "Teacher, you speak well."
Anaa awi cawngpyikung thlang vang ing, “Cawngpyikung, nak kqawn ce thym hy,” tina uhy.
40 They did not dare to ask him any more questions.
Cekcoengawh kawng taw u ingawm awi am doet voel uhy.
41 He said to them, "Why do they say that the Messiah is David's son?
Cekcoengawh Jesu ing cekkhqi venawh, “Ikawmyihna a mingmih ing Khrih ve David Capa tinawh amik kqawn hy voei?
42 David himself says in the scroll of Psalms, 'The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand,
David amah ingtaw Saam cabu awh: Bawipa ing ka Bawipa a venawh:
43 until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet."'
Na qaalkhqi ce na khawtloeng na ka sai hlan dy taw, kak tang benawh ngawi lah,” tinawh kqawn hy.
44 "David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?"
David ing anih ce ‘Bawipa,’ tinawh khy hy. Cawhtaw ikawmyihna a capa na a awm hly thai?” tinak khqi hy.
45 In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
Thlangkhqi ing ak awih kqawn ce a ming ngai huiawh, Jesu ing a hubatkhqi venawh,
46 "Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;
