Matthew 12
1 In that season, went Jesus, on, the sabbath, through the cornfields, —and, his disciples, hungered, and began to pluck ears of corn, and to eat.
Jesuh sabbath mhnüp üng loma lama cit se, axüisaw he ami ei ngaih u lü lomaa cangvüi kpyat lü eikie.
2 But, the Pharisees, observing it, said unto him, Lo! thy disciples, are doing what is not allowed to do, on sabbath.
Pharise he naw ami jah hmuh üng, Jesuh üng, “Tenga, sabbath mhnüp üng jeih vai sü, am pawh vai na xüisawe naw pawh ve u” ti lü ami pyen.
3 And he said unto them, have ye never read what, David, did, when he hungered, and they who were with him? how
Jesuh naw, “Davit a ei ngaih lü a khyang he am i pawhkie ti cangcim üng am nami kheh khawiki aw?
4 he entered into the house of God and, the presence-bread, did eat, which it was not, allowable, for him to eat, nor for them who were with him, —save for the priests, alone?
Pamhnama ima lut u lü Pamhnam üng peta muk, ktaiyü he däk naw va eia nglawiki. Amimia eia am nglawiki a khyang he am eikie.
5 Or have ye not read, in the law, that, on the sabbaths, the priests, in the temple, the sabbath, profane, and are, blameless?
Am ani üng, ktaiyü he sabbath mhnüp üng khut ami pawh msawk üng pi mkhyekiea am jah ngaih, ti cangcim üng am nami khe khawiki aw?
6 But I say unto you, —Something greater than the Temple, is here!
Acunsepi ka ning jah mthehki, ngpumima kthaka daw bawki hia ve ve,
7 If, however, ye had known what this meaneth—Mercy, I desire, and not, sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the blameless;
“Ngkengtaihnaka kdama mpyeneinak ngaih veng” ti nami ksinga ta ngsungpyunkie am nami jah mkatei khai sü.
8 For, the Son of Man, is, Lord of the Sabbath.
Isetiüng ta, “Khyanga capa cun sabbatha Bawi ni” a ti.
9 And, passing on from thence, he came into their synagogue;
Jesuh acun üngka naw cit lü, ami sinakoka lutki.
10 and lo! a man having, a withered hand, and they questioned him, saying, Is it allowable, on the sabbath, to heal? that they might accuse him.
Acuia akutxo a na veki. Ami mkatei vaia phäha, “Sabbath mhnüp üng mdawnak bea khut pawh nglawiki aw?” ti lü ami kthäh.
11 And said unto them, What man, from among yourselves, [shall there be], —Who shall have one sheep, and, if this should fall, on the sabbath, into a pit, will not lay hold of it, and raise it?
Jesuh naw, “Nangmi üngka mata toca mat däk a tak sabbath mhnüp üng khuia k’uma kya se am na lo be khai aw, na hawihin khai aw.
12 How much better, then, a man, than, a sheep? So that it is allowable, on the sabbath, nobly, to act.
To mata kthaka khyang mat sabbath mhnüp üng mdaw be vai cun daw bawki. Acunakyase, mi Thum üng pi sabbath mhnüp üng khyang mat kuei vai hin nglawiki ni” a ti.
13 Then saith he unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand! And he stretched it forth, —and it was restored, whole, as the other.
Acunkäna Jesuh naw akutxo üng, “Na kut sänga” ti se, a kut a säng ja a kut akce mäiha daw law beki.
14 And the Pharisees, going forth, took, counsel, against him, to the end that, him, they might destroy.
Acunüng Pharise he akcea cit u lü Jesuh ami mkhyüh vaia cengkie.
15 But, Jesus, taking note, retired from thence, —and many followed him, and he cured them all;
Jesuh naw ami hnim hlü cun a ksingei üng, akcea jah ceh ta se khyangpä naw läki he. Mhnatei nakütki a jah mdaw be.
16 and straitly charged them, lest they should make him, manifest:
Jesuh naw ania mawng i käh ami kcüinak vaia a jah mtheh.
17 that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying: —
Acun cun Pamhnam naw a pyensak sahma Hesajah naw a na pyen a kümceinak vaia kyaki.
18 Lo! my servant, whom I have chosen, My beloved, in whom, my soul, delighteth, —I will put my Spirit upon him, and, justice, unto the nations, will he report:
“Tenga, ka mpya, ka xü cen, ka kphyanak ja ka mlunga jenak. Ka ngmüimkhya a khana ka tüih khai, ani naw ngthumkhyahnak cun khyangmjüe üng jah mtheh khai.
19 He will not strive, nor will he cry out, nor shall any hear, in the broadways, his voice:
Ngpyang lü ngcuhpüi am ve, u naw a kthai lama käh ngja khai.
20 A bruised cane, will he not break, and, a smoking wick, will he not quench, —until he urge on, justice, to victory,
Ngkunkia kyaicung käh k’ekbät lü, meisui mkhu pi käh mthih khai. Ngpyunnak a ngnäng veia,
21 And, in his name, shall nations hope.
A ngming üng khyang he naw äpeinak ta khaie.
22 Then they brought unto him, one demonized, blind and dumb, —and he cured him, so that the dumb did speak and see.
Acunüng khawyaia venak a mik mü lü am ngthuhei theiki khyang mat ami lawpüi Jesuh naw mdaw be se, ngthuhei lü hmuh law be theiki.
23 And all the multitudes were beside themselves, and were saying, Can, this one, be, the Son of David?
Khyangpäe naw Jesuha pawh cun hmu lü müncan law u lü, “Hina khyang hin Davita capa ni khawh khai aw?”
24 But, the Pharisees, hearing it, said, This one, doth not cast out the demons, save in Beelzebul ruler of the demons.
Pharise he naw acun ami ngjak üng, “Hina khyang naw Beelzebul yaiea mkhawnga pet johit am yaie jah ksät ve” ami ti.
25 And, knowing their inward thoughts, he said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself, is laid waste, —and, no city or house divided against itself, will stand;
Jesuh naw ami cungaih jah ksing lü, “Aia pe pi animäte ngcawhkie cun khawvei am kham lü ngtai khawikie. Aia mlüh pi imbung üng pi, animäte ngcawhkie cun am ngsawn khawi u.”
26 And, if, Satan, is casting, Satan, out, against himself, hath he become divided, —How then shall, his kingdom, stand?
Acunüng khawyai naw khawyai a ksät üng, amät naw amät mtaikia kya se, ikba a khaw ngsawng khawh khai ni?
27 And, if, I, in Beelzebul, am casting out the demons, In whom are, your sons, casting them out? Wherefore, they, shall be, judges of you.
Nangmi naw Beelzebul yai mkhawnga na pet johit am yaie ka jah ksät vaia nami pyenki. Acun a ni üng, u naw nami hnukläke üng jah ksätnaka johit jah peki ni? Nami hnukläke naw nami mkhye ngdangsak ve u, a ti.
28 But, if, in God’s Spirit, I, am casting out the demons, then doubtless hath come upon you unawares, the kingdom of God!
Am ni, Beelzebula johit am ni. Mhnama ngmüimkhyaa johit am ka jah ksät üng va Pamhnama Khaw nami khana pha lawki.
29 Or how can one enter the house of the mighty and, seize his goods, unless, first, he bind the mighty one? and, then, his house, he will plunder.
Am ani üng u naw khyang kyan yüi üng am pin ma lü, a ima ka khawhkhyame jah loei thei khai ni?
30 He that is no with me, is, against me, —and, he that gathereth not with me, scattereth
Au pi, kei da am veki cun kei na hnengki ni. Kei am alanga am na mcunpüiki cun ngphyüingphyakia kyaki ni.
31 Wherefore, I say unto you, All sin and profane speaking, shall be forgiven unto men, —but, the speaking profanely of the Spirit, shall not be forgiven;
Acunakyase ka ning jah mthehki, mkhyekatnak naküt ja, Pamhnam ksekha nakie cun jah mhläta kya khai. Cunsepi Ngmüimkhya Ngcim ksekhanaki cun mhlät theia am kya.
32 And, whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him, —but, whosoever shall speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this age, or the coming. (aiōn g165)
Aupi Khyanga Capa mkhyekat na lü ksekhanaki cun mhläta kya khai. Cunsepi Ngmüimkhya Ngcim ksekhanaki cun tuh pi ngawia pi mhlät theia am kya. (aiōn g165)
33 Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree worthless, and its fruit worthless; for, from the fruit, the tree is known.
Akthei üng a thing ksing theia kya se, akthei a daw üng a thing daw lü, akthei a set üng a thing seki ti nami ksing vai.
34 Broods of vipers! How can ye speak, good things, being, evil? For, out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaketh.
Kphyuksee aw, ihawkba se u lü akdaw nami pyen thei khai ni? Mlung üng veki va mpyawng üng lut law khawiki.
35 The good man, out of the good treasure, putteth forth, good things; and, the evil man, out of the evil treasure, putteth forth, evil things.
Khyang kdaw naw a mlung kdaw üngka akdawe jah pyen khawi lü, khyang kse naw a mlung kse üngka aksee jah pyen khawiki.
36 But I say unto you, That, every useless expression that men shall utter, they shall render, concerning it, an account, in a day of judgment;
Ka ning jah mthehki, akse pyenkia khyang naküt a pyena phu cun ngthumkhyahnaka mhnüp üng thung be khai.
37 For, by thy words, shalt thou be, justified, and, by thy words, shalt thou be condemned.
Na ngthu naw ning lätsak lü na ngthu bä naw ning mkat khai” a ti.
38 Then, answered him, certain of the Scribes and Pharisees, saying, Teacher! we desire of thee, a sign, to behold.
Acunüng thum mthei he avang ja Pharise he naw Jesuh üng, “Saja aw, müncankse mat na pawh kami hmuh hlüki” ti lü tä u se,
39 But, he, answering, said unto them, A wicked and adulterous generation, a sign, doth seek, and, a sign, will not be, given, it, save the sign of Jonah the prophet.
Jesuh naw, “Tuh kän khyang he ihlawka se lü mtuihmlehkie ni. Nangmi naw müncankse nami täkie aw? Jonaha müncanksea thea i käh ning jah mhnuh vai” a ti.
40 For, just as was Jonah in the belly of the sea-monster three days and three nights, so, will be the Son of Man, in the heart of the earth, three days and three nights.
Jonah nganua k’uma mhnüp kthum ja mthan kthum a vea mäiha khyanga capa pi mdek k’uma mhnüp kthum ja mthan kthum ve khai.
41 Men of Nineveh, will rise up in the judgment, with this generation, and will condemn it, —because they repented into the proclamation of Jonah; and lo! something greater than Jonah, here.
Ninevih mlüha khyang he naw ngthumkhyahnaka mhnüp üng ngdüi u lü ning jah mtai law khaie. Isetiüng Jonaha ngthu pyena phäh ami mkhyenak üngka naw ngjutkie. Teng u, Jonaha kthaka kyäp bawkie ve ve u.
42 The queen of the south, will arise in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it—because she came out of the ends of the earth, to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and lo! something greater than Solomon, here.
Ngthumkhyahnaka mhnüp üng Sheba Sangpuxangnu naw ngdüi lü ning jah cijang law khai. Ani cun Solamona themngvainak ngai khaia athuknak a khaw üngka naw lawki. Teng ua, Solamona kthaka kyäp bawki hia ve khü.
43 But, when the impure spirit goeth out of the man, it passeth through waterless places, seeking rest, —and findeth it not.
Ngmüimkhyakse khyang üngka naw a lut law üng, mkyanga a hüieinak vai hnün sui hü lü am hmu lü,
44 Then, it saith, Into my house, will I return whence I came out, —and, coming, findeth it empty [and] swept and adorned.
“ka venak kphyüm ima ka cit be khai” ti lü a ceh be üng, a na ngcim lü a na phephaih, a na ngkhämtawng se a hmuh.
45 Then, it goeth, and taketh along with itself, seven diverse spirits, more wicked than itself, —and, entering, abideth there; and, the last state of that man, becometh, worse than the first. So, shall it be, with this, wicked, generation.

46 While yet he was speaking unto the multitudes, lo! his mother and brethren, were standing without, seeking to speak with him.
Acukba khyang khawhahea veia a ngthuei k'um üng a nu ja a benae naw ami ngthuheipüi vaia sui hü u lü kpunga ngdüikie.
47 [And one said to him, Lo! thy mother and thy brethren, without, are standing, seeking, to speak, with thee.]
Acunüng mat naw, “Tenga na nu ja na benae naw ning ngthuei hlüpüi lü kpunga ngdüi ve u” ti lü a mtheh.
48 But, he, answering, said unto him that was telling him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?
Jesuh naw, “U ni ka nu, ue ni ka benae cun” a ti.
49 And, stretching forth his hand towards his disciples, he said, Lo! my mother and my brethren!
Acunüng Jesuh naw axüisaw he maa a kut säng lü, “Hine hin ka nu ja ka benae ni.”
50 For, whosoever shall do the will of my Father who is in the heavens, he, is my, brother, and sister, and mother.
Au pi, ka pa khankhawa kaa ngjak hlü pawhki naküt cun ka benae, ka cinae ja ka nua kyaki he ni” a ti.
