Matthew 13
1 On that day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.
Acuna mhnüp üng, Jesuh im üngkhyüh cit lü tuilia kama jah mthei khaia ngawki.
2 And there were gathered unto him great multitudes, so that he entered into a boat, and sat; and all the multitude stood on the beach.
Ani ngbum lawki khyangpäe nung u se ta Jesuh mlawnga khana kai lü a ngaw üng, khyangpäe cun tuili kama ngdüikie.
3 And he spake to them many things in parables, saying, Behold, the sower went forth to sow;
Jesuh naw msuimcäpnake am ngthu pyen lü, “Ahlana mci saw khaia khyang mat citki.”
4 and as he sowed, some [seeds] fell by the way side, and the birds came and devoured them:
Acukba a phuh hü üng, mci avang lama kya se khae naw ami ei u.
5 and others fell upon the rocky places, where they had not much earth: and straightway they sprang up, because they had no deepness of earth:
Avang lunga danak, nglei a ngceknaka kya se akjanga cawt lawki.
6 and when the sun was risen, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.
Khaw so law lü ngling law se, apya am vekia kya lü ngjaiei päihki.
7 And others fell upon the thorns; and the thorns grew up, and choked them:
Mci avang nghlinga ksunga kya se nghling naw saü law lü a jah yaiin.
8 and others fell upon the good ground, and yielded fruit, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
Cunsepi, mci avang ngleia dawnaka kya se daw lü, avang aphya, avang khyukip, avang thumkipa ngtheipai lawki.
9 He that hath ears, let him hear.
Aupi a ngjaknak vai a nghnga veki naw ngja se” a ti.
10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
Acunüng axüisaw he Jesuha veia law u lü, “Khyang he am na ngthuei üng ivaia msuimcäpnake na jah sumeiki ni?” ti lü ami kthäh u.
11 And he answered and said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
Jesuh naw, “Nangmi cun Khankhaw Pea küia mawng ksingnak ka ning jah mtheh päng ni, amimi üng ta am jah mtheh nawng” a ti.
12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that which he hath.
Takia khyang üng a tak law dämdäm vaia petsih vai. I pi am taki üng a tak naküt pi hutei be vai.
13 Therefore speak I to them in parables; because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
Ami veia msuimcäpnak am ngthu ka pyen hin teng kyaw u lü pi am hmu u, ngai kyaw u lü pi am ngjakya u.
14 And unto them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall in no wise understand; And seeing ye shall see, and shall in no wise perceive:
Acunakyase sahma Hesajah naw Hina khyang he naw ngai lü ngaikie, cunüngpi am ngjakya u; teng lü tengkie, cunüngpi am hmu u,
15 For this people’s heart is waxed gross, And their ears are dull of hearing, And their eyes they have closed; Lest haply they should perceive with their eyes, And hear with their ears, And understand with their heart, And should turn again, And I should heal them.
Isetiüng ami mlung nghlangkia kyase, ami nghnga naw am ngja ti, ami mik naw am hmu ti. Ami mik naw hmu lü, ami nghnga naw a ngjak vai sü ta, ami mlung üng ngjakya khaie sü, acunüng ka veia nghlat law be u se, ka jah mdaw be vai sü” a pyen khawi.
16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.
Nangmi ta nami mik naw hmuh lü nami nghnga naw ngja se nami kam daw ve.
17 For verily I say unto you, that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which ye see, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye hear, and heard them not.
Akcanga ka ning jah mthehki, sahma khawkän ja Pamhnama khyang he naw nami hmuh hin hmuh hlü u lü pi am hmuh khawh u, nami ngjak hin ngja hlü u lü pi am ngja hüt u.
18 Hear then ye the parable of the sower.
Acunakyase, mciksaw msuimcäpnak üng pyen hlü hin ngai lü ngthei ua.
19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, [then] cometh the evil [one], and snatcheth away that which hath been sown in his heart. This is he that was sown by the way side.
Khankhaw Pea mawng ngthu ngja lü am ngjakyaki cun lama khana kyaki mci am tängki ni. Khawyaipa naw law lü a mlung k’uma sawnglin cun a lawheiin pet.
20 And he that was sown upon the rocky places, this is he that heareth the word, and straightway with joy receiveth it;
Lunga khana kyaki mci cun ngthu ngja lü jekyainak am a ngjak ja dokhameiki.
21 yet hath he not root in himself, but endureth for a while; and when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, straightway he stumbleth.
Acunüngpi am phungpya mahkia kyase khawvei am kham. Acun ngthua phäh khuikhatnak ja mkhuimkhanak apha law üng pyaiei beki.
22 And he that was sown among the thorns, this is he that heareth the word; and the care of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
Nghling hmua kyakia mci cun Mhnama ngthu ngja kyawki, khawmdeka cäicingnak ja bawimangnak naw a mhleia phäh a ngthu ngjak cun kpyeh se, am ngtheipai lü veeiki. (aiōn g165)
23 And he that was sown upon the good ground, this is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; who verily beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
Ngleia dawnak üng kyakia mci cun ta ngthu ngja lü ngjakyaki: acunüng ngtheipaikie, avang aphya, akhäk khyukip ja amsah thumkipa ngtheipai bekie” a ti.
24 Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man that sowed good seed in his field:
Msuimcäpnak akce a jah mtheh betü ta, “Khankhaw Pe cun a loa mci kdaw sawki khyang mat am tängki ni.
25 but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares also among the wheat, and went away.
Khyang he ami ih k'um mthan mat üng, ye naw law lü mci kdawa ksunga mci kse saw lü akcea citinki.
26 But when the blade sprang up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
Cang pyo law lü a vuipai law üng, mphyaw pi ngdang lawki.
27 And the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field? whence then hath it tares?
A mpyae naw law u lü amahpaa veia, “Angvai aw, na lo üng mcikdaw va na saw am niki aw? Hawia khyüh hina mphyawe po lawki he ni? ti lü a kthäh.
28 And he said unto them, An enemy hath done this. And the servants say unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
Lomah naw, “Yee naw ahikba ami pawh ni” a ti. A mpyae naw lomah üng cit lü kami jah phukin vai aw? ami ti.
29 But he saith, Nay; lest haply while ye gather up the tares, ye root up the wheat with them.
Lomah naw, “Kaa, mphyaw nami phuk üng cangkdaw pi nami phuksih khai ni.”
30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather up first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
“Cang ah veia ani nghngih veei yüm ni se. Cang ah law üng mphyawe cun jah phu ma lü mei üng jah mkhih vai ja, cange cun jah at hnga u lü, ka kheia ami tak vaia cangk'at he üng ka jah mtheh khai,” ti lü a pyen.
31 Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like unto a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:
Jesuh naw msuimcäpnak akce a jah mtheh betü cun, “Khankhaw Pe cun khyang naw anca ui cehpüi lü a loa a phuha mäi ni,”
32 which indeed is less than all seeds; but when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the heaven come and lodge in the branches thereof.
Anca ui cun mciui naküt üng akdik säiha kya lü pi a cawt law üng, kpue naküt kthaka ngbaü lawki. A thinga thawn law se khae naw pi law u lü, a kpyang üng ngbu tuhei law khawikie,” a ti.
33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till it was all leavened.
Msuimcäpnak mat a jah mtheh betü cun, “Khankhaw Pe cun nghnumi mat naw nghngen lo lü khai tawng kthum üng kcaw se, khai kphawm lawki üng tängki ni,” a ti.
34 All these things spake Jesus in parables unto the multitudes; and without a parable spake he nothing unto them:
Jesuh naw msuimcäpnak am khyangpäe üng ngthu jah mthehki; msuimcäpnaka kaa i am pyen.
35 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world.
Sahma naw a pyen khawi, “Msuimcäpnak am amimia veia ngthu ka pyen khai; khawmdek mhnünmceng üngka naw khyüngthupe ka jah mtheh khai,” ti aküm lawnaka kyaki.
36 Then he left the multitudes, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Explain unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
Jesuh naw khyangpä cun akcea jah ceh ta lü im k’uma lut se, axüisaw he a veia law u lü, “Loa mphyawa mawng msuimcäpnaka suilam i ni, jah mtheha” ami ti.
37 And he answered and said, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
Jesuh naw, “Mcikdaw sawki cun Khyanga Capa ni.”
38 and the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the tares are the sons of the evil [one];
Lo cun khawmdek ni, mcikdawe cun Khankhaw Pea ca hea kya u lü, mphyawe cun Khawyama ca he ni.
39 and the enemy that sowed them is the devil: and the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are angels. (aiōn g165)
Mphyaw sawki ye cun Khawyam ni. Cang ah kcün cun khawmdeka päihnaka mhnüp ni, cang atkie cun khankhawngsä he ni. (aiōn g165)
40 As therefore the tares are gathered up and burned with fire; so shall it be in the end of the world. (aiōn g165)
Acukba mphyawe jah mcun lü mei üng ami jah mkhiha mäiha, akcün päih law üng thawn law khai. (aiōn g165)
41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that cause stumbling, and them that do iniquity,
Khyanga Capa naw a khankhawngsä he jah tüih law se, acun he naw a Khankhaw Pe üng khyang he jah mkhyekatsakie ja akse pawhkie avan cun jah mkhäm khai,
42 and shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be the weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Kyap u lü ami mnicui hakyet khai hea mulai mei kdäi üng jah xawt law khaie.
43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears, let him hear.
Acunüng Pamhnam ca he ta khawnghngia deikhanga mäiha ami Paa Khankhaw Pea kdeikhang khaie. Na nghnga a ve üng ngjaa!
44 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a treasure hidden in the field; which a man found, and hid; and in his joy he goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
Khankhaw Pe cun loa thupa khawhthem üng tängki ni. Khyang mat naw acuna khawh cun hmu lü thup beki naw, jekyai lü a tak naküt va jawi lü a yah lawa ngui am acuna lo cun a khyäih.
45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is a merchant seeking goodly pearls:
Acunkäna, Khankhaw Pe cun aphu küiki lungtaü kdaw sui hü lü kunpanki khyang mat veki.
46 and having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
Acuna lungtaü a hmuh üng a tak naküt jawi päih lü acuna lungtaü cun a khyäih am tängki ni.
47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:
Khankhaw Pe cun ngvai am pi tängki ni. Ngaksui avang naw tuia ami ngvai ami vawih üng nga amjüküm ng’awki.
48 which, when it was filled, they drew up on the beach; and they sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but the bad they cast away.
Ngvai cun nga beei se kawnga kaih u lü nga cun ami ngawh sawa phyäihkie: nga kdawe cun cä üng jah xawn u lü, am dawkia ngakse naküt cun ami jah xawtin.
49 So shall it be in the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the righteous, (aiōn g165)
Acukba akcüna päih law üng thawn law khai: khankhawngsä he naw law u lü khyang ngsungpyunea ksunga khyangkae cun jah xü khai. (aiōn g165)
50 and shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be the weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Kyap lü ami mnicui hakyet khai hea, mulai meikdäia jah xawtin vai” a ti.
51 Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea.
Jesuh naw, “Ahin he hin nami jah ngjakyaki aw?” ti se, “Ä, kami ngjakyaki ni” ami ti.
52 And he said unto them, Therefore every scribe who hath been made a disciple to the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is a householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.
Jesuh naw, “Acunakyase Khankhaw Pea mawng mtheiki thum mthei he naküt cun immahpa naw a im k’uma ka khawh akthai ja akphyüm a cümnak üngka naw loki am tängki ni,” a ti.
53 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence.
Jesuh naw acuna msuimcäpnake a jah mtheh päng üng, acuna hnün hawih lü,
54 And coming into his own country he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?
A hminak mlüha cit beki. Sinakoka k’uma jah mtheimthang se ngja lü müncan ngenkie. “Ahina themngvainak müncankse pawhnaka johit hin hawia a jah yah ni?” ami ti.
55 Is not this the carpenter’s son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joseph, and Simon, and Judas?
Imksaa ca am ni mä? A nu pi Marih, a benae pi Jakuk, Josep, Sihmon ja Judah ami ti am nikie mä?
56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things?
A cinae am pi ahia awmki he am ni mä? Hawia ka hin naw ahikba johit hin a jah yah hü ni? ami ti.
57 And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
Acukba Jesuh cun ami ma. Jesuh naw, “Sahma cun hnün naküt üng leisawngkie ni, a hminak a khaw ja a imbunga ni am leisawngnak a yah khawi,” a ti.
58 And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
Am jumkiea kyase acuia müncankse i am pawh.
