< Matthew 22 >

1 And, answering, Jesus, again, spake in parables unto them, saying: —
Jisu ih tiitthaak ah mih suh nyootsoot suh maak ruh eta.
2 The kingdom of the heavens hath become like a man, a king, —who made a marriage-feast for his son;
“Rangmong Hasong ah arah likhiik. Ehak di luungwang wasiit ih heh sah kuhoon raangtaan ih phaksat khookhamta.
3 And sent his servants, to call the invited into the marriage-feast, —and they would not come.
Eno heh laksuh loong asuh wenwah loong ah kuhoon sadung raangtaan ih poonkaat thukta, enoothong miloong ah tanook rumta.
4 Again, sent he other servants, saying—Say to the invited, Lo! my dinner, have I prepared, mine oxen and my fatlings, are slain, —and, all things, are, ready: Come ye into the marriage-feast.
Erah thoih heh laksuh wahoh loong ah wenwah loong poon we daapkaatta, amet baat ano ah: ‘Amadi sadung tok elang ela; nga maanpong etot ah nyia maansah loong ah joot angno, kuhoon phaksat ah khookham etang. Kuhoon sadung ah phaksah wanghan!’
5 And, they, slighting it, went off, one, indeed, into his own field, and, another, unto his merchandise, —
Enoothong wenwah loong ah ih lathaang chaat thang ih maama mootkaat ni karumta: mararah heh phek ni kata, mararah pheehoon theng ni kata,
6 And, the rest, securing his servants, ill-treated and slew them.
rukho loong ah ih heh laksuh ah joh rum ano, tekbuh rumta.
7 And, the king, was provoked to anger, —and, sending his armies, destroyed those murderers, and, their city, set on fire.
luungwang ah rapne ih khata; eno heh sipaahi loong ah daapkaat ano, laksuh tek haatte loong ah weethem tek haat, neng hadaang ah rok haat et rumta.
8 Then, saith he unto his servants—The marriage, indeed, is ready, —but, the invited, were not, worthy;
Eno heh laksuh loong ah lompoon rum ano baatta, ‘Kuhoon phaksat ah jen khookham cho, ngah ih maat rumtang wenwah loong ah aanah jen wang theethe tah ang rumka.
9 Be going, therefore, into the crossways of the roads, and, as many as ye shall find, call ye into the marriage-feast.
Eno bah amadoh sen ih kah ano lam nah mina mathan japtup an erah thoontang poon wanhan.’
10 And those servants, going forth, into the roads, gathered together all whom they found, both bad and good, —and filled was the bride-chamber with guests.
Eno heh laksuh loong ah karum ano lam nawa mathan ethih ese mina chotup rumta loong ah lompoon wanrumta, eno kuhoon nok ah nep meeta.
11 But the king, entering to view the guests, saw there a man, who had not put on a wedding-garment, —
“Eno luungwang ah ih wenwah loong ah sokkah rum ano heh ih kuhoon choomdi lachoomte ah japtupta.
12 And saith unto him—Friend! how camest thou in here, not having a wedding-garment? And, he, was put to silence.
‘Nga joonwah, an aadi kuhoon choom muh mame nop halu?’ Luungwang ih chengta. Eno erah mih ah tumjih uh tajengta.
13 Then, the king said unto the ministers, Binding him feet and hands, cast him forth into the darkness, outside: There, shall be wafting and gnashing of teeth.
Eno luungwang ih heh laksuh loong asuh baatta, ‘Erah mih ah helak helah ah khak anno, laamang nah haatkaat an. Erah nah heh pha ah phak ano toom huung ah.’”
14 For, many, are called, but, few, chosen.
Eno Jisu ih thoonbaatta, “Mih hantek poonta, dowa ene ko ah danjeeha.”
15 Then, went the Pharisees and took, counsel, that they might ensnare him, in discourse.
Pharisi loong ah dokkhoom rum ano Jisu suh mat deenjoot suh cheng rumta.
16 And they sent forth to him their disciples, with the Herodians, saying, Teacher! we know that, true, thou art, and, the way of God, in truth, dost teach, and it concerneth thee not about anyone, —for thou lookest not unto the face of men:
Eno Pharisi loong liphante nyi Hirod mina loong ih Jisu reeni daapkaat rumta. Eno neng ih liita, “Nyootte,” “Seng ih jat etti an ih ami tiit baat uh. Mina suh Rangte ih tumjih thunha erah jun ih nyootte an ah, mina ih tumjih liibaat ah ih an tasootsamko, tumeah an ih mina ah ehin elong tadandeeko.
17 Tell us then, how, to thee, it seemeth? Is it allowable to give tax unto Caesar, or not?
Erah ang abah, seng suh baat he, an ih tumjih thunhu? Seng Hootthe jun ih Roman luungwang suh sokse ah ejen kot tam tajen koke?”
18 But Jesus, taking note of their wickedness, said—Why are ye tempting me, hypocrites?
Jisu ih neng ethih tenthun ah ejat etta eno liita, “Lonoite loong! Sen loong ih nga mat deenjoot ah tumet suh taatwoot chung han?
19 Shew me the coin appointed for the tax. And, they, brought unto him a denary.
Sokse o suh kotjih ah ngah suh jaanngun ah noisok thaak he!” Neng ih jaanngun ah piiwan rumta,
20 And he saith unto them—Whose, is this image and the inscription?
eno heh ih neng suh chengta, “Arah ngun adi o theeakhoh nyia o men ah?”
21 They say—Caesar’s. Then, saith he unto them—Render, therefore, the things of Caesar, unto Caesar, —and, the things of God, unto God.
“Luungwanglong men, neng ih ngaakbaat rumta. Eno Jisu ih neng suh li rumta, “Ese, erah ang abah ah sen ih Luungwanglong thiik ah Luungwanglong suh koh an, Rangte thiik ah Rangte suh koh an.”
22 And, hearing, they marvelled, —and, leaving him, departed.
Neng ih erah chaat rum ano epaatja ih rumta, eno Jisu re nawa dokkhoom karumta.
23 On that day, there came unto him Sadducees, who say, there is, no resurrection—and they questioned him,
Erah saasa adi mararah Sadusi loong Jisu jiinni wang rum haano mina tek nawa tangaaksaatka ih laat chaangmui rumta.
24 saying—Teacher! Moses, said, If any man die not having children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
“Nyootte,” Moses ih liita miwah heh sah maangje doh mok ti abah, heh minuh ah hephoh heno ih jaatjaat kapjih tumeah heh sah rah etek teewah sah et thiik suh ah.
25 Now there were, with us, seven brethren; and, the first, marrying, died, and not having seed, left his wife unto his brother.
Ehak di soophoh wasinet aani tongte kah angta. Phokhothoon ah ih heh minuh ah kap ano heh sah maangje di mattiita, eno heh minuh rah heh no wasiit rah ih we kapta.
26 Likewise, the second also, and the third, —unto the seven.
Eno erah warah uh emamah we tiita, erah lilih wasiit we mattiita, emamah soophoh wasinet ah matti wang rumta.
27 And, last of all, died, the wife.
Hethoondi, minuh ah thoon tiita.
28 In the resurrection, therefore, —Of which of the seven, shall she be wife? For, all, had her.
Erah ang abah, etekte loong ah ngaaksaat jaadoh, erah nuh ah o minuh ang ah? Loongtang ah heh miwah totoh angta.”
29 And Jesus answering, said—Ye are deceiving yourselves, knowing neither the Scriptures, nor yet the power of God.
Jisu ih ngaakbaat rumta, “Sen loong ih mamah lajat ehan! Tumeah sen ih Rangteele ni raangha rah nyia hechaan ah tajatkan.
30 For, in the resurrection, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but, as messengers in the heaven, are they.
Etek nawa ngaakthing adoh neng ah Rangsah loong likhiik ang ah, neng ih minuh takap rumka.
31 But, as touching the resurrection of the dead—Have ye not read what was spoken unto you by God, saying—
Tek nawa ngaaksaat tiit ah Rangteele ni tanih jap wetan? Rangte ih liita,
32 I, am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?—He is not God, of the dead, but, of the living.
‘Ngah Abraham Rangte, Isak Rangte, nyia Jaakob Rangte.’ Heh ah tekcho Rangte tah angka ething Rangte.”
33 And, the multitudes, hearing, were being struck with astonishment at his teaching.
Miloong ah erah nyootta ah chaat rum ano, rapne ih paatja rumta.
34 Now, the Pharisees, hearing that he had silenced the Sadducees, were brought together with one accord;
Jisu ih Sadusi loong suh lakah miijeng thang ih li rumta ah Pharisi loong ih japchaat rum ano, neng ah lomkhoom rumta,
35 and one from among them, a lawyer, proposed a question, putting him to the test:
eno neng dung nawa wasiit, Hootthe nyootte ih Jisu suh, mat deenjoot suh chengta.
36 Teacher! which commandment, is greatest in the law?
“Nyootte,” “Hootthe ni elongthoon jengdang tumjih ah?”
37 And, he, said unto him—Thou shalt love the Lord thy God—with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind:
Jisu ih ngaakbaatta, “‘An Teesu Rangte ah anten anmong nyia anthung antak adoleh anchi anla ah koh uno minchan uh.’
38 This, is the great and first commandment.
Erah ah ajuuba thoontang nang ih elongthoon nyia ehan et maakjih.
39 The second, like it, is, this: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Erah lilih jengdang elongthoon ah arah likhiik: ‘Ankhuung antok ah an teewah thanthan ih minchan uh.’
40 In these two commandments, all the law, is contained, and the prophets.
Moses Hootthe nyia khowah loong ih nyootta ah thoontang arah enyi jengdang adi roopla.”
41 Now, the Pharisees having come together, Jesus questioned them, saying—
Mararah Pharisi loong lomtong rum adi, Jisu ih cheng rumta,
42 How, to you, doth it seem, concerning the Christ? Whose son, is he? They say unto him—David’s.
“Sen ih Kristo asuh o ah et thunhan? Heh ah o suh o sah ah?” “Heh ah Dewid sutoom,” neng ih ngaakbaatta.
43 He saith unto them—How then doth, David, in spirit, call him, Lord, saying—
“Eno Jisu ih chengta, erah ang abah, mamah ah,” “Chiiala ih Dewid suh ‘Teesu’ ih poon uh ih tam baatta? Dewid ih liita,
44 The Lord, hath said unto, my Lord, —Sit thou on my right hand, until I make thy foes thy footstool?
‘Rangte ih nga Teesu suh liita: arah doh nga jaawako adoh tong uh anpi anra loong ah ngah ih an lathong nah maang thokthok thiin ah.’
45 If then, David, calleth him, Lord, How, is he, his son?
Erah ang abah, Dewid ih ‘Teesu’ ih poon abah, Kristo ah Dewid sutoom mamangla?
46 And, no one, was able to answer him a word, neither durst anyone, from that day, question him, any more.
O reh uh Jisu suh tami ngaakbaat rumta, eno erah sa dowa ih o reh uh ehan jengkhaap tanaan cheng rumta.
