Luke 16
1 He also said to his disciples, "There was a certain rich man who had a manager. An accusation was made to him that this man was wasting his possessions.
Jesus in a nungzui te tung ah, Mihau khat om a, neisa keam tu khat nei hi; tua pa in na neisa teng bo thongsak siat hi, ci in a topa tung ah ki mawsiat hi.
2 He called him, and said to him, 'What is this that I hear about you? Give an accounting of your management, for you can no longer be manager.'
Taciang a topa in sam a ama tung ah, na thu ka zak te bangbang ziam? ka van na kep teng sazian hong pia tan; banghangziam cile ka neisa keam hi nawn ngawl tu ni hi, ci hi.
3 "The manager said within himself, 'What will I do, seeing that my lord is taking away the management position from me? I do not have strength to dig. I am ashamed to beg.
Tasiaciang in neisa keam pa in, ka topa in ka nasep pan hong tawlngasak tu a hi ciang in, bang vawt tu khi ziam? lo le ka tho thei bua a; khutdaw ngen tu le ka maizum hi.
4 I know what I will do, so that when I am removed from management, they may receive me into their houses.'
Neisa keam dinmun pan hong tawlngaksak ciang in, amate inn ah hong san thei natu in ka vawt tu ka he hi, ci hi.
5 Calling each one of his lord's debtors to him, he said to the first, 'How much do you owe to my lord?'
Tua ahikom a topa kung ah leiba nei te theampo sam a, a masabel pa kung ah, ka topa tung bangza ba ni ziam? ci hi.
6 He said, 'A hundred batos of oil.' He said to him, 'Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.'
Tua pa in, sathau pheal zakhat, ci hi. Taciang neisa keam pa in, na sazian la tan a, a manlang in to in, taciang pheal sawm nga ci at in, ci hi.
7 Then he said to another, 'How much do you owe?' He said, 'A hundred cors of wheat.' He said to him, 'Take your bill, and write eighty.'
A dang khat kung ah, nang e, bangza ba ni ziam? ci hi. Ama in, zungtang hui ip zakhat, ci hi. Taciang neisa keam pa in, na sazian la tan a, ip sawm liat ci at in, ci hi.
8 "His lord commended the dishonest manager for his shrewdness, for the people of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than the people of light. (aiōn g165)
Hi a thuman ngawl neisa keampa in thimtheltak in a vawt nate a topa in pok hi: banghangziam cile, leitung mihing te sia amate hun sung, khuavak tate sang in lupil zaw uh hi. (aiōn g165)
9 And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous mammon, so that when it is gone they may welcome you into the everlasting dwellings. (aiōnios g166)
Keima in kong ci hi, note hileitung pan na pusua uh ciang in tawntung omna biakbuk sung ah hong sang tu na nei thei natu uh in, leitung sum le pai taw ngualtam vawt vun. (aiōnios g166)
10 He who is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much. He who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much.
A tawmno ah a thuman peuma a tampi ah zong thuman hi: A tawmno ah a thuman ngawl peuma a tampi tung ah zong thuman ngawl hi.
11 If therefore you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
Tua ahikom a kip ngawl neisa tung ah thuman ngawl na hi uh le, a kua in hauna tatak hong ap ngam tu ziam?
12 If you have not been faithful in that which is another's, who will give you that which is your own?
Ngual dang neisa tung nangawn ah thuman ngawl na hi uh le, noma nei tu in a kua in hong pia ngam tu ziam?
13 No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. You are not able to serve God and wealth."
Mihing khat in to ni na seam thei ngawl tu hi: banghangziam cile khat ensan tu a, a dang khat it tu hi; khat beal tu a, a dang khat ngaingon tu hi. Note in Pathian le nei le lam naseam hi khawm thei ngawl tu nu hi, ci hi.
14 The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these things, and they scoffed at him.
A duhop Pharisee te in hi thu te theampo a zak uh ciang in, Jesus selno in nui uh hi.
15 He said to them, "You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of people, but God knows your hearts. For that which is exalted among people is an abomination in the sight of God.
Tasiaciang in Jesus in amate tung ah hibang in ci hi, Note in mihing te mai ah noma le noma ki thutangsak nu hi; ahihang Pathian in na thinsung uh hong he hi: banghangziam cile mihing te sung ah a sang mama in a ki ngaisun te, Pathian mai ah lipkhap huai mama hi.
16 The Law and the Prophets were until John. From that time the Good News of the Kingdom of God is preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.
John hong thet dong thukham le kamsang thu te om hi: tua hun pan kipan Pathian kumpingam thu pualak uh a, mi theampo phul in tum uh hi.
17 But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tiny stroke of a pen in the Law to become void.
Thukham sung ah a nobel a bawk no khat sang in, van le lei a bo tu ol zaw lai hi.
18 Everyone who divorces his wife, and marries another, commits adultery. He who marries one who is divorced from a husband commits adultery.
A kuamapo a zi khul a, zi dang a nei sia, palngul mawna vawt a hihi: taciang a pasal in a khul numei a tenpui sia zong palngul mawna vawt ma a hihi.
19 "Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, living in luxury every day.
Mi hau khat om a, puan sannum le puan neamno a pha mama sil in, nisim nuamsa in nungta hi:
20 A certain beggar, named Lazarus, was placed at his gate, full of sores,
Taciang a pumpi tung theampo meima taw a dim, Lazarus a kici khutdaw ngen khat om a, mi hau pa kongbiang ah ngual in koi hi.
21 and desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table. Yes, even the dogs came and licked his sores.
Mihaupa sabuai pan a tak anneng te ne nuam in om a, ui hongpai in a meima te liasak hi.
22 It happened that the beggar died, and that he was carried away by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died, and was buried.
Khutdaw ngen pa thi a, vantung mite in Abraham kang sung ah paipui hi: taciang, mihaupa zong thi a, phum hi;
23 In hell, he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far off, and Lazarus at his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
Taciang a ngim thuak na hell sung pan a tungsang a et ciang in, a khuala mama na ah Abraham mu hi, taciang a kangsung ah Lazarus om hi. (Hadēs g86)
24 He called out and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue. For I am in anguish in this flame.'
Mihaupa au in, ka pa Abraham awng, hong hesuak kapo in, hi meikuang sung ah ngim na thuak kahikom Lazarus in a khutzung dawn tuisung ah papsuk in, ka lei hong votsak natu in sawl in, ci hi.
25 "But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that you, in your lifetime, received your good things, and Lazarus, in like manner, bad things. But now here he is comforted and you are in anguish.
Ahihang Abraham in, ka tapa awng, na nuntaksung a pha theampo sang zo ni hi, tabangma in Lazarus sia a pha ngawl teng sang hi: ahizong tu in ama sia henepna nga zo a, nang na hile ngimna na thuak hi, ci phawk in.
26 Besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, that those who want to pass from here to you are not able, and that none may cross over from there to us.'
Hiteng theampo bek domngawl, kote le nangma ki laklaw ah luamthukpi om hi: tua ahikom hi mun pan in na kung ah ki pai thei ngawl a, nangma kung pan zong ko kung ki pai thei ngawl hi, ci hi.
27 "He said, 'I ask you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house;
Tasiaciang in mihaupa in, tua a hi ciang, ka pa Abraham awng, Lazarus sia ka pa inn ah paisak tu in hong ngen khi hi:
28 for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, so they won't also come into this place of torment.'
Banghangziam cile, suapui nga nei lai khi hi; hi ngimna sung ah hong thet ngawl natu uh in Lazarus in amate tung ah tettipang tahen, ci hi.
29 "But Abraham said to him, 'They have Moses and the Prophets. Let them listen to them.'
Abraham in, amate in Moses le kamsang te nei hi; tuate thu ngai tahen, ci hi.
30 "He said, 'No, father Abraham, but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.'
Taciang in mihaupa in, hi ngawl hi, ka pa Abraham awng: mithi te sung pan in khat amate kung ah pai a hile, amate ki sikkik tu uh hi, ci hi.
31 "He said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded if one rises from the dead.'"
Abraham in ama kung ah, Moses le kamsang te thu a ngai nuam bua a hile, khatpo thina pan a thokik hial zong in ngai nuam tuan ngawl tu uh hi, ci hi.
