Matthew 18
1 In that hour came, the disciples unto Jesus, saying—Who then is, greatest, in the kingdom of the heavens?
Erah tok adi heliphante loong Jisu jiinni wang rum ano, cheng rumta, “Rangmong Hasong ni elongthoon ah o ah?”
2 And, calling near a child, he set it in the midst of them,
Eno Jisu ih noodek ah poon ano, neng ngathong ni chap thukta,
3 and said—Verily, I say unto you, Except ye turn and become as the children, in nowise, shall ye enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
eno baat rumta, “Ngah ih ami tiit baat rumhala sen arah noodek ah likhiik lalekkan bah, sen babah uh rangmong Hasong nah tachowang kan.
4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this child, the same, is the greatest, in the kingdom of the heavens;
Rangmong Hasong nah bah toongtang mina arah noodek likhiik angte loong aba elongthoon ang ah.
5 And, whosoever shall give welcome unto one such child as this, upon my name, unto me, giveth welcome.
Eno o mina ih arah likhiik noodek ah nga mendoh noppoon ah, erah ih ngah noppoon halang.
6 And, whosoever shall cause to stumble one of these little ones who believe in me, it profiteth him, that there be hung a large mill-stone about his neck, and he be sunk in the wide main of the sea.
“O ih bah uh ngah suh hanpiite mina loong ah rangdah nah datsiit abah, erah mih rah ih jonglo ah bonjek ano juungsih nah lupdat ah eseethoon ang ah.
7 Alas for the world! by reason of the causes of stumbling; for it is, necessary, that the causes of stumbling come, —nevertheless, alas for the man through whom the cause of stumbling cometh!
Tumthan echoojih ah arah mongrep raangtaan ih ah, tumeah neng tuungmaang matsiitjih ah eje! Erah likhiik ah saarookwih banlang ruh eah—enoothong erah reete loong raang ih tumthan echoojih ang ah!
8 But, if, thy hand or thy foot, be causing thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: It is, seemly for thee, to enter into life, maimed or lame, rather than, having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the age-abiding fire. (aiōnios g166)
“Anlak an lah ih an tuungmaang ah thetsiit halu bah, thadook uno haat uh! Laktuh latuh ih Rangmong nah chowang ah ese ang ah, lak alah pan ih roitang we nah khaamwang nang ih bah ah. (aiōnios g166)
9 And, if, thine eye, causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: It is, seemly, for thee, one-eyed, into life, to enter, rather than, having two eyes, to be cast into the fiery gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
Erah dam ih an mik ih an tuungmaang ah thetsiit halu bah, doklot haat et uh! Mikko ih Rangmong nah wang ah ese ang ah mik hop soolam nah roitang we nah khaamwang nang ih bah ah. (Geenna g1067)
10 Beware! do not despise one of these little ones; For I say unto you—that, their messengers in the heavens, do, continually, behold the face of my Father in the heavens.
“Naririh ih ban sok an arah noodek loong ah babah uh nak thaangju an. Ngah ih baat rumhala, neng Rangsah loong ah saarookwih rangmong ni seng Wah damdi tong rumla.
Tumeah Mina Sah ah saapsah emat ete loong pang raangtaan ih ra taha.
12 How, to you, doth it seem? If a certain man come to have a hundred sheep and one from among them go astray, Will he not leave the ninety-nine upon the mountains, and going, seek the straying one?
“Mih wasiit ih heh saapsah chaasiit dowa esiit ah mat haat abah, sen ih tumjih thun an? Heh ih rook akhuh akhuh ah kaanjang adoh naamphak thengnah thiinhaat ano esiit marah emat eta saapsah rah jam sokkah ah.
13 And, if it should be that he find it, Verily, I say unto you—He rejoiceth over it, more than over the ninety-nine that have not gone astray.
Ngah ih baat rumhala, heh ah esiit emat eta ah japjam ano rook akhuh akhuh loong nang ih ehan ih roon ah.
14 Thus, there is no desire, in the presence of my Father who is in the heavens, that, one of these little ones, should be lost.
Erah likhiik Rangmong nawa sen Wah reh uh arah noodek loong dowa esiit uh nak toom mah ah ih thunha.
15 But, if thy brother sin, withdraw, convince him, betwixt thee and him, alone, —If unto thee he hearken, thou hast gained thy brother;
“Anphoh anno an damdoh rangdah mok re haabah, kah uno heh moongtaang ah dokbaat uh. Enoothong husah ih set cham chamchi nah hot baattaan mui theng. Heh ih an jeng ah thaangchaat abah, erah an ih engaak jen ettu.
16 But, if he do not hearken, take with thee, yet one or two, that, at the mouth of two witnesses or three, every declaration, maybe established;
Enoothong heh ih lathaang chaatka bah, an damdoh wasiit nyi than waksiit kaat uh, ‘tumeah wanyi wajom jengkhaap nawa ih esek ejih mok lang eah, ‘Rangteele ni jengla likhiik ah.
17 But, if he hear them amiss, tell it to the assembly, —And, if, even the assembly, he hear amiss, Let him be unto thee, just as the man of the nations and the tax-collector.
Eno erah uh heh ih lachaatka bah, chaas nah noksong suh dokbaat an. Erah taan uh lalaat chaatka bah, erah mih asuh Ranglajatte adoleh sokse seete ih ejen li et an.
18 Verily, I say unto you—Whatsoever things ye shall bind on the earth, shall be bound in heaven; and, whatsoever things ye shall loose on the earth, shall be loosed in heaven.
“Erah thoidi Ngah ih baat rumhala: marah sen ih arah hatoh ni ehaam et han rah rangmong nah uh ehaam et ah, nyia marah sen ih hatoh ni jen re thuk ehan erah rangmong nah uh ejen re ejih ang ah.
19 Again, [verily] I say unto you—If two from among you shall agree upon the earth concerning any matter, whatsoever they shall ask, it shall be brought to pass for them, from my Father who is in the heavens;
“Erah dam ih Ngah ih boot baat rumhala: arah hatoh nah marah sen wanyi ah roomtong anno thungpun lam ih rangsoom anbah, erah ah Rangmong nawa seng Wah ih sen suh ehoonkot ehan.
20 For, where there are two or three, gathered together into my name, there, am I, in their midst.
Tumeah o mina wanyi jom nga mendoh lomtong ah, erah doh Ngah sen damdoh eje ang hang.”
21 Then, coming near, Peter said [to him]—Lord! how many times, shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until, seven, times?
Erah lidi Pitar ih Jisu suh cheng wangta, “Teesu, ngaaphoh ngaano nga damdoh mok miksuk muiha bah, ngah ih ja mathan jen biin anaan ang? Jaasinet taan tama?”
22 Jesus saith to him—I say not unto thee, unto, seven, times, but, until seventy times seven.
“Jaasinet tah angka,” Jisu ih ngaakbaatta, “Jaarook sinet jaasinet biin anaan theng,
23 For this cause, hath the kingdom of the heavens become like unto a man, a king, who wished to settle an account with his servants;
tumeah Rangmong hasong ah arah likhiik. Jaasiit luungwang wasiit ih heh laksuh loong dowa thaangsoot ngaaksuh rumta.
24 And, when he, began, to settle, there was brought unto him a, certain, debtor, of a thousand talents;
Luungwang ih thaang ah phang suh rum adi laksuh loong ah ih mih wasiit nopsiit wanrumta, erah mih adi luungwang thaangsoot hecha helaak tong arah angta.
25 and, he, not having, wherewith to pay, the master ordered him to be sold, and the wife, and the children, and whatsoever he had, —and payment to be made.
Erah laksuh adi thaangsoot jen themtheng ngun taluita, erah thoidi luungwang ih laksuh asuh heh minuh nyia hesuh hesah nyia heh nyamka loong ah sang ano thaang ah toom them ah ih baatta.
26 The servant therefore, falling down, began to do homage unto him, saying—Have patience with me, and, all, will I pay thee.
Laksuh ah heh lakudi tong ano luungwang lasih jota. ‘Ngah biin anaan et weehang,’ ih chuut huungta, ngah ih ngaakthem et weeha!’
27 And, moved with compassion, the master of that servant released him, and, the loan, he, forgave, him.
Luungwang ih heh minchan ah dong ano heh thaangsoot uh lakah ngaaksuh thang ih biin anaan ano kaat thukta.
28 But that servant, going out, found one of his fellow-servants, who owed him, a hundred denaries, and, laying hold of him, he began seizing him by the throat, saying, Pay! if anything thou owest.
“Eno erah laksuh ah dokkhoom kah ano heh joonte laksuh wasiit di chomui kata, erah wah ah dowa ngun amasah ngaak chojih eje angta. Heh ih erah wah ah joh ano heboh ni supphiitta. Eno liita, ‘Nga ngun nam tahang ah ngaak kohang!’
29 His fellow servant, therefore, falling down, began beseeching him, saying, Have patience with me! And I will pay thee.
Heh joonwah laksuh ah kottong ano heh lasih ah jota, ‘Ngah biin anaan et weehang, ngah ih ngaakthem et weeha!’
30 He, however, would not, but went away and cast him into prison, —until he should pay what was owing.
Ang abah uh heh tanookta; erah nang ih heh ih phaatak ni hethaang maang ngaakthem them et sakta.
31 His fellow-servants, therefore, seeing, the things that were done, were grieved exceedingly, —and went and made quite plain to their master all the things which had been done.
Eno laksuh rukho loong ih erah sok rum ano rapne ih thungjoong rumta, eno luungwang asuh jaatrep baatwan rumta.
32 Then, calling him near, his master saith unto him—O wicked servant! All that debt, forgave I thee, because thou didst beseech me.
Eno luungwang ah ih laksuh ah noppoon wan ano liita. ‘Dah moong an ah! ‘Ngah ih botseh an dowa ngaak sujih angta ang ah biin anaan taha, an chuut huung thoidi ah.
33 Was it not binding, upon thee also, to have mercy upon thy fellow-servant, as, I also, on thee, had mercy?
An ih uh an joonte ah minchan et jaat ba hanih, ngah ih an minchan taha likhiik ah.’
34 And, provoked to anger, his master delivered him up to the torturers, until he should pay all that was owing.
Luungwang ah rapne ih khata, eno heh ih laksuh ah phaatak ni sak wanthuk ano hethaang maang ngaakthem them ih chamthukta.”
35 Thus, my heavenly Father also, will do unto you, if ye forgive not each one his brother, from your hearts.
Eno Jisu ih thoonbaatta, “Erah raang ih rangmong nawa seng Wah reh uh emamah et han sen joonte ah sen ten nawa ih lajen biin anaan kanbah ah.”
