Mark 4
1 And again he began to teach by the lake. And a large crowd was gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat on the lake, and sat down. And the whole crowd was on the land by the lake.
Cekcoengawh Jesu ing tuili kengawh thlang cawngpyi tlaih bai hy. A venawh ak cun thlang kqeng ce a kqeng soeih a dawngawh lawng khuina kun nawh ngawi hy, cawh thlangkqeng taw tuili kengawh awm uhy.
2 And then he taught them many things in parables, and told them in his teaching,
Nyhtahnaak awi ing cekkhqi ce ik-oeih khawzah cawngpyi khqi hy, a cawngpyinaak awh ce a mingmih a venawh:
3 "Listen. Look, the sower who went out to sow.
“Ngai lah uh! lo ak toenkung thlang pynoet taw camci ak saw na cet hy.
4 And it happened, as he sowed, some seed fell by the road, and the birds came and devoured it.
Camci ce a saw awh a vang taw lam awh tla nawh phakhqi ing cung hloep uhy.
5 And others fell on the rocky ground, where it had little soil, and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of soil.
A vang taw deklai khawzah ama awmnaak lung ak khan awh tla hy. Deklai a pam a dawngawh, kawlhkalh awh cawt tlang hy.
6 And when the sun came up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
Cehlai khaw a thoeng law awhtaw ak kqa ama cak a dawngawh khawkbe ing tau nawh reu hy.
7 And others fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
Camci a vang taw hling anglakawh tla nawh, hling a thing ce a bau law awhtaw cang ce zawl malh hy, cedawngawh am vui thai hy.
8 And others fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing; and brought forth thirty times, and sixty times, and one hundred times."
Camci a vang taw deklai ak leek awh tla hy. Cawt law, taai law nawh, vui hy, a pyh thumkip, kqukkip, zakhat dyna ak thaih vui hy,” tinak khqi hy.
9 And he said, "Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear."
Cekcoengawh Jesu ing, “Zaaknaak haa ak ta ingtaw za seh nyng,” tinak khqi hy.
10 And when he was alone, those who were around him with the twelve asked him about the parables.
Amah doeng a awm awh, thlanghqa hlaihih tloek ingkaw thlak changkhqi ce a venna law unawh nyhtahnaak awi ce doet uhy.
11 And he said to them, "To you has been given the mystery of the Kingdom of God, but to those who are outside, all things are done in parables,
A mingmih a venawh, “Khawk khan nakaw awihyp ce nangmih a venawh ni pek khqi hawh hy. Cehlai a ceng na ak awmkhqi aham ik-oeih soepkep ce nyhtahnaak awi ing kqawn pe nyng,
12 that 'seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest perhaps they should turn and be forgiven.'"
cawh ni, “'hu taw hu hlai kawm uh, am toek thai ti kawm uh, za taw za hlai kawm uh, am zasim thai qoe kawm uh, cemih am mantaw hlat tlaih kawm usaw, qeenkhaw ngai na awm hau kawm uh!' a ti myihna,” tinak khqi hy.
13 And he said to them, "Do you not understand this parable? And how will you understand all of the parables?
Cekcoengawh Jesu ing a mingmih a venawh, “Vawhkaw nyhtahnaak awi ve amna ming zasim nawh nu? Cawhtaw ikawmyihna nyhtahnaak awikhqi boeih ce naming zaak sim hly pai?
14 The farmer sows the word.
Lo ak takung ing awi ce theh hy.
15 And these are the ones by the road where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan comes, and takes away the word which has been sown in them.
Thlang vang taw awi ce ak theh awh, camci ang tlaaknaak lam amyihna awm uhy. Awi ce aming zaak awh Setan ce law nawh a mingmih ak khuiawh theh na ak awm awi ce lo valh hy.
16 And these in a similar way are those who are sown on the rocky places, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy.
Ak changkhqi bai taw, lunghqawng awh ak tla camci amyihna awm bai hy, awi ce aming zaak awh zeel doena do pahoei uhy.
17 And they have no root in themselves, but are short-lived. Then, when oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble.
Cehlai ak kqa ama cak a dawngawh, kawlhkalh ca doeng awm hy. Awi awh kyinaak ingkaw thekhanaakkhqi a law awh, ang tawnna tluk tlang uhy.
18 And others are those who are sown among the thorns; these are the ones who have heard the word,
Ak changkhqi bai taw hling anglakawhkaw ak tla camci ing myih uhy, awi ce za hy;
19 and the cares of the age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
cehlai ve khawmdek hqing khawsaknaak awh lynaakkhqi, boeinaak, qaai kqawnnaak khqi ingkaw ak chang ik-oeih ngaihnaakkhqi law nawh awi ce zawl malh uhy, cedawngawh a vui am qah thai hy. (aiōn g165)
20 And those which were sown on the good ground are those who hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times."
Ak chang bai taw, laitak awh ak tla camci ing myih hy, awi ce ang zaak awh, do hy, a vui qah nawh - a pyh thumkip, kqukkip ingkaw zakhat dyna ak thaih vui hy,” tinak khqi hy.
21 And he said to them, "Is the lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Is it not put on a stand?
A mingmih a venawh, “Maiim ce dawn ing myk unawh, am awhtaw caboei ak kaina ta khawi unawh nu? Maiim amim hawihnaak khawi awh ni amim hawih ka ti my?
22 For there is nothing hidden, except that it should be made known; neither was anything made secret, but that it should come to light.
Cawh ni amak dangkhqi boeih awm dang kawmsaw ang hyp na ak awmkhqi awm aming dang hly boeih hy.
23 If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear."
Zaaknaak haa ak ta ingtaw za seh.
24 And he said to them, "Consider carefully what you hear. With whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you, and more will be given to you.
Na ming zaak ve ak leek na poek lah uh. Thlang aham na loeknaak awh ce nang aham awm loek law lawt kaw.
25 For whoever has, more will be given, and he who does not have, even that which he has will be taken away from him."
U awm ak ta ce sap pek khqoet kawmsaw; u awm amak ta cetaw, a taak ang cang awm lawh pe kaw,” tinak khqi hy.
26 And he said, "The Kingdom of God is like someone who scatters seed on the earth,
A mingmih a venawh, “Khawsa qam taw vemyihna awm hy. Thlang pynoet ing camci ce a lo awh theh hy.
27 and he sleeps and rises night and day, and the seed springs up and grows; he doesn't know how.
Khawmthan ingkaw khawkdai ip nawh hang tho law seiawm camci ce pawk nawh cawt law hy. Ikawmyihna a hang cawt law tice am sim hy.
28 The earth bears fruit, first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
Amah poek awh deklai ing vui a qah sak hy - a kung hak cawt law hy, cekcoengawh vui nawh ak thaih qah law hy.
29 But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he puts forth the sickle, because the harvest has come."
Cang ce a hin awhtaw, cang ah aham a khoek hawh a dawngawh, vin ce lo nawh aat hy,” tinak khqi hy.
30 And he said, "To what will we liken the Kingdom of God? Or with what parable will we use for it?
Cawhtaw, “Khawk khan qam ve kaw ing nu ka nyhtah lah voei, am awhtaw i ikawmyih nyhtahnaak awi nu ka hawnaak lah voei?
31 It's like a mustard seed, which, when it is sown upon the soil, though it is less than all the seeds that are upon the soil,
Khan qam taw khawmdek awh ak zawi soeih antlam cii ing myih hy.
32 And when it is sown, grows up, and becomes greater than all the garden plants, and puts out large branches, so that the birds of the sky can lodge under its shadow."
Cehlai antlam cii ce cawt nawh a hang taai law awhtaw dum khui awhkaw a thing boeih boeih anglakawh bau khqoet hy, a baai ak bau na cawn nawh khan nakaw phakhqi ing a hlip awh cu uhy,” tinak khqi hy.
33 And with many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it.
A mingmih ing aming zaak simnaak thai aham, cemyih nyhtahnaak awikhqi ing awi kqawn pek khqi hy.
34 And he did not speak to them without a parable; but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.
Nyhtahnaak awi hawnaak kaana ikawmyih awi awm ap kqawn pek khqi hy. Cehlai a hubatkhqi mi amah doeng ami awm awh, cawhkaw ik-oeihkhqi ce kqawncaih pek khqi hy.
35 And on that day, when evening had come, he said to them, "Let us go over to the other side."
Amah ce nyn khawmy ben awh a hubatkhqi venawh, “Vang ben caqai na cet usih,” tinak khqi hy.
36 And leaving the crowd, they took him with them, even as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.
Thlang kqeng ce cehta unawh, anih ce lawng khuiawh a awmnaak man na ceh pyi pahoei uhy.
37 And a big wind storm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so much that the boat was already filled.
Cawh khaw hli khung nawh tuibak ce lawng khuina kun saw lawng ce cum hlo hlo hy.
38 And he himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion, and they woke him up, and told him, "Teacher, do you not care that we are dying?"
Jesu taw lawng ang mai benna a lu doelh nawh ip hy. A hubatkhqi ing thawh unawh, a venawh, “Cawngpyikung kaimih tui awh ka ming cum hly ve kawna am nak poek nawh nu?” tina uhy.
39 And he awoke, and rebuked the wind, and said to the lake, "Peace. Be still." And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
Tho nawh, khawhli ce, “Sit nawh dym hlah!” tina hy. Cawh khawhli ce sit nawh a sitdik na awm boeih hy.
40 And he said to them, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?"
A hubatkhqi venawh, “Ikawtih vemyihna namik kqih lawnha aih? Cangnaak am nami ta hlan nawh nu?” tinak khqi hy.
41 And they were greatly afraid, and said to one another, "Who then is this, that even the wind and the lake obey him?"
Cawh kqih unawh, “Ve ve a u nu ti ve? Khawhli ingkaw tuibak ingawm ak awi ngai pe zap hy!” ti uhy.
