Matthew 16
1 And, the Pharisees and Sadducees coming near, putting him to the test, requested him, a sign out of the heaven, to shew unto them.
Pharise avang ja Sadukee law u lü Jesuh ami mhnütnak vaia Pamhnam naw ning ksingki ti a ngsingnak vaia, müncankse jah mhnuha” ti lü täkie.
2 But, he, answering said unto them— When evening cometh ye say, Fair! for fiery is the heaven;
Jesuh naw jah msang lü, “Khaw kyak law hlü üng, ‘Khankhaw mliki khawngawi ta khaw sen hlü ve’ nami ti khawiki.”
3 And at morn, To-day, a storm! for fiery, and yet sad, is the heaven. The face of the heaven indeed, ye learn to distinguish, —but, the signs of the times, ye cannot.
Ngawilama, “Khaw ngmei lü anghmüp law üng, tuhngawi ta khaw ah hlü ve,” nami ti khawiki. Khawa sen vai ja a ak vai cun khankhaw teng lü nami ksing kyawkie. Cunüngpi akcünmka üng sängeikia müncanksee ta am ksing khawh uki.
4 A wicked and adulterous generation, a sign, doth seek after, and, a sign, will not be given it, —save the sign of Jonah. And, leaving them behind, he departed.
“Tuh kän khyang he ihlawka se lü mtuihmlehkie ni. Nangmi naw müncankse nami täkie aw? Jonaha müncanksea thea i käh ning jah mhnuh vai” ti lü a jah ceh tak.
5 And the disciples coming, to the other side, had forgotten to take loaves.
Acunüng, axüisaw he tuilia cayea ami law üng, muk law vai ami mhnih.
6 And, Jesus, said unto them—Mind! and beware, of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Jesuh naw, “Pharise he ja Sadukeea nghngen nami jah cäieinak vai,” a ti.
7 And, they, began to deliberate among themselves, saying—Because, loaves, we took not.
Animäte naw ngai u lü, “Ahin hin muk am mi lawpüia phäha kya ngaiki,” ami ti.
8 And, observing it, Jesus said—Why are ye deliberating among yourselves, ye little-of-faith! because, loaves, ye have not?
Jesuh naw ami pyen ksing lü, “Jumeinak ngcekia khyang he aw, i nami sumkyamkie ni. Ise muk am nami taka phäh vaia nami ngaikie ni?
9 Not yet, perceive ye, neither remember, —The five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye received?
Muk mhma pacawng thawng mhmaa phäh ka bo cen am nami sümkie aw? Cä ikän ja nami msap law? Am nami ksing hamkie aw?
10 Nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many hampers ye received?
Muk khyüh khyang thawng kphyü naw ei u se, cä ikän hläiki ti am nami sümkie aw?
11 How is it ye perceive not, that, not concerning loaves, spake I unto you, —but beware of the leaven, of the Pharisees and Sadducees?
“Eia mawng ka ning jah mthehki am ni, ise am nami ksing u ni? Pharise he ja Sadukeea ngneikse nami cäieinak vaia ka ning jah mthehki ni,” a ti.
12 Then, understood they that he did not bid them beware of [the] leaven [of loaves] but of, the teaching, of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Acunüng muk üng ami kcaw nghngen a pyen am ni, Pharise he ja Sadukeea jah mtheimthangnak ami cäieinak vaia a jah mtheh tia ami ksing.
13 And, Jesus coming into the parts of Caesarea of Philip, began questioning his disciples, saying—Who are men saying that, the Son of Man, is?
Jesuh Kesari Philipih mlüh pei cit lü acuia axüisaw he üng, “Khyang he naw Khyanga Capa hin u ami pyen ni,” ti lü a jah kthäh.
14 And, they, said—Some, indeed, John the Immerser, and, others, Elijah, —but, others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.
“Amsah naw Baptican Johan, amsah naw Elijah, amsah naw Jeramih, am ani üng sahma mat mat va ni khai ti ve u,” ami ti.
15 He saith unto them—But who say, ye, that I am?
Jesuh naw, “Nangmi naw mä ua jah nami na ngaih?” a ti.
16 And, Simon Peter, answering, said—Thou, art the Christ, the Son of the Living God.
Sihmon Pita naw, “Nang cun Khritaw, xüngseiki Pamhnama Capa ni,” a ti.
17 And Jesus, answering, said to him—Happy, art thou, Simon Bar-yona, —because, flesh and blood, revealed it not unto thee, but my Father who is in the heavens.
Jesuh naw msang lü“Johana ca Sihmon, na jo daw ve. Isetiüng ta, ahin hin khyanga ning mtheh am ni, khana ka Pa naw a ning mtheh ni.”
18 And, I also, unto thee, say—Thou, art Peter, —and, upon this rock, will I build my assembly, and, the gates of hades, shall not prevail against it. (Hadēs g86)
Ka ning mthehki, Pita aw nang lung ni, ahina lunga khana ka sangcim ka mdüih khai, thihnak naw pi käh näng khai ni. (Hadēs g86)
19 I will give thee, the keys of the kingdom of the heavens, —and, whatsoever thou shalt bind upon the earth, shall be bound in the heavens, and, whatsoever thou shalt loose upon the earth, shall be loosed in the heavens.
Khankhaw Pe tawhe ka ning pe khai, aipi khawmdek khana am na mhlät naküt cun khankhawa pi mhläta am kya, ai naküt pi khawmdek khana na mhlät cun khankhawa pi mhläta kya khai,” a ti.
20 Then, straitly charged he the disciples, lest, to any man, they should say—He, is, the Christ.
Acunüng axüisaw he üng Khritaw a ninak u üng pi käh ami mtheh vaia a jah mtheh.
21 From that time, began Jesus Christ to be pointing out to his disciples that he must needs, into Jerusalem, go away, and, many things, suffer, from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, —and on, the third day, arise.
Acunüng tünei lü Jesuh naw “Jerusalema ka cit khai, axüe, ktaiyü he ja thumksingea mkhuimkhanak ka khamei khai. Na hnim khaie, cunüngpi amhnüp kthum üng ka tho be khai” ti lü axüisaw he üng a jah mtheh.
22 And, taking him aside, Peter began to rebuke him, saying—Mercy on thee Lord! In nowise, shall, this, befall thee.
Pita naw akcea khü lü, “Bawipa aw, acukba käh kya khai, na khana acukba käh thawn yah khai,” ti lü Jesuh a pyen.
23 But, he, turning, said to Peter—Withdraw behind me, Satan! A snare, art thou of mine, because thou art not regarding the things of God, but the things of men.
Jesuh naw nghlat law lü Pita üng, “Khawyam aw, ka peia käh vea, nang hin ka kyukngtängnak vaia na kyaki ni. Isetiakyaküng, na ngaihnak hin Mhnam üngka naw lawki am ni, khyang üngka naw lawki ni,” a ti.
24 Then, Jesus said unto his disciples—If any one intendeth, after me, to come, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and be following me;
Jesuh naw axüisaw he üng, “Nangmi üngka mat naw ka hnu läk khaia a bü üng a hlükaw naküt hawih lü, amäta kutlamktung kawt lü na läk law se.”
25 For, whosoever intendeth, his life, to save, shall lose it, —but, whosoever shall lose his life, for my sake, shall find it.
Na sak küinak khaia na bü üng sak am yahki, cunüngpi keia phäha na sak tawn khaia na bü üng ta angsäi xünnak na yah khai,” a ti.
26 For what shall a man be profited, though, the whole world, he gain, and, his life, he forfeit? Or what shall a man give, in exchange for his life?
Khyang naw khawmdeknu avan ka na lü, a ngmüimkhya xünnak am a yah üng i am ni a thawnei be thei kawm?
27 For the Son of Man is destined to be coming, in the glory of his Father, with his messengers, —and, then, will he give back unto each one, according to his practice.
Khyanga Capa, a pa hlüngtainak ja a khankhawngsä he am law be hnühki, khyang naküt cun khut a pawha kba jah kheng khai.
28 Verily, I say unto you—There are some of those, here standing, who, indeed, shall in nowise taste of death, until they see the Son of Man, coming in his kingdom.
Akcanga ka ning jah mthehki, “Ahin üng awmki he avang naw am thih ham u lü, Khyanga Capa Sangpuxanga kba law be se hmuh khaie,” a ti.
