Luke 20
1 And it came to pass on one of the days (of those *k*) when is teaching He the people in the temple and evangelising came up the (chief priests *NK(o)*) and the scribes with the elders
Acunüng, khaw mhmüp mat cun Temple k'uma khyang he jah mthei lü thangkdaw a pyen k'um üng, ktaiyü ngvai he la thum ksing he cun axüngvai he am law u lü,
2 and spoke saying to Him: do tell us by what authority these things You do or who is the [one] having given to You authority this?
Jesuh üng, “Jah mtheha, ia ana am na pawh ni? U naw hina ana aning pet ni?” tia ami kthäh.
3 Answering now He said to them; Will ask you I myself also I myself also (one *k*) thing, and do tell Me:
Acunüng, Jesuh naw jah msang lü, “Kei pi mat ka ning jah kthäh khai na msang u;
4 The baptism of John from heaven was it or from men?
“Johan naw baptican a jah petnak thei hin Mhnam üngka aw? Khyang üngka aw?” a ti.
5 And they reasoned among themselves saying that If we shall say: From heaven, He will say; Because of why (therefore *K*) not did you believe in him?
Acunüng, amimät he ami mlung k’uma, “Mhnam üngka mi ti üng pi, ‘ivai Johan am nami kcangnak ni?’ ti hlü ve.
6 If however we shall say; From men, the people (all *N(k)O*) will stone us; persuaded for they are John a prophet to be.
“Khyang üngka mi ti üng pi khyang avan naw Johan cun sahmaa ami ksinga kyase, lung am jah vawi hlü ve u,” tia ngai kyuki he.
7 And they answered not to know from where.
Acunüng, msang u lü, “Hawia ka ni ti am ksing ve üng,” ami ti.
8 And Jesus said to them; Neither I myself tell you by what authority these things I am doing.
Acunüng Jesuh naw, “Kei pi ua ana am ka pawh ni ti am ning jah mtheh hlü veng,” a ti.
9 He began then to the people to speak parable this: A man (certain *NK*) planted a vineyard and rented it to farmers and went abroad a time long.
Acunüng, khyang he üng hina msuimcäpnak a jah mtheh, “Khyang mat naw capyit ngvawng pyanki, k’äih khai he üng jah khah hüt lü athuknaka khawa di law khaia citki.
10 And (in *k*) [in the] season he sent to the farmers a servant that from the fruit of the vineyard (they will give *N(k)O*) to him; But the farmers sent away him having beaten [him] empty-handed.
“Acunüng, capyit kbih vai a kha law üng amäta hama capyit ktheih kbit khaia a m'ya mat ngvawng ngängki hea veia a jah tüih. Cunsepi avang he ngängki he naw acuna m’ya cun kpai u lü a jünga ami tüih be.
11 And he proceeded another to send a servant; but him him having beaten and having dishonored they sent away empty-handed.
“Acunüng, a m'ya akce mat ami veia a tüih be kce, ngvawng ngängki he naw, kpai u lü, ngkekhyakei khaia pawhki he naw, a jünga ami tüih be.
12 And he proceeded a third to send; They then also him having wounded they cast out.
“Acunüng, akce m'ya mat ami veia tüi be se acun pi aktäa ngkhe khaia kpai u lü kpunga ami tawn.
13 Said then the master of the vineyard; What shall I do? I will send the son of mine the beloved; perhaps him (having seen *K*) they will respect.
“Acunüng, ngvawng mah naw, ‘Ikba ka pawh khai? Ka capa ka jawngnak bawi tüi süm vang, ani ta leisawng hman khai he ni,’ a ti.
14 Having seen now him the farmers were reasoning among (one another *N(k)O*) saying; This is the heir; (come *K*) let us kill him so that ours may become the inheritance.
“Cunsepi, ngvawng ngängki he naw ami na hmuh la, ‘Hin hin khawh mkhawm khaia khyang ni, mi hnim vai, acunüng a khawh mi ka na khai,’ tia, ami ceng.
15 And having cast forth him outside the vineyard they killed [him]. What therefore will do to them the master of the vineyard?
“Acunüng, capyit ngvawng üngka naw kpunga nawt u lü ami hnim. Acunüng capyit ngvawng mah naw ikba jah pawh law khai aw?
16 He will come and he will destroy farmers these and will give the vineyard to others. Having heard [it] then they said; Never would it be!
“Ngvawng mah law lü, ngvawng ngängki he jah hnim lü ngvawng pi khyang kce he üng jah pe khai,” a ti. Acunüng, acun ami ngjak la, “Acukba ta am kya khai,” ami ti.
17 But having looked at them He said; What then is that written this: [The] stone which rejected those building, this has become into [the] head of [the] corner’?
Cunsepi, Jesuh naw jah teng lü, “Hina ngthu ng’yuki hin i ni? ‘Sawngsaki he naw ami yawka lung cun, avana kthaka kyäp law säihki ni’ ti hin.
18 Everyone falling on that [very] stone will be broken; on whomever but maybe it may fall, it will grind into powder him.
“Upi, acuna lunga khana kyaki cun yawp khai, Upi acuna lung naw a kyaksih cun mvuta mhmüi khai,” a ti.
19 And sought the scribes and the chief priests to lay on Him hands in that hour and they feared the people; they perceived for that against them He was speaking parable this.
Acunüng, thum ksing he la ktaiyü ngvai he naw man u lü, ami kutnak vaia ami bü te, khyang he ami jah kyühei; msuimcäpnak a pyen cun, amimi jah mkat lü, a pyen ti ami ksinga phäha kyaki.
20 And having watched [Him] they sent spies feigning themselves righteous to be, that they may catch Him in talk, (in order *N(k)O*) to deliver Him to the rule and to the authority of the governor.
Acunüng, Jesuh naw, ngthu a pyen law msawk man u lü, Romah Empero veia ami khyak vaia phäha, k’äih tele u lü mcih khai hea khyang kdawa kba awmkia khyang he ami jah tüih.
21 And they questioned Him saying; Teacher, we know that rightly You speak and You teach and not You receive [any] person but on the basis of truth the way of God teach.
Amimi naw Jesuh üng, “Saja aw, cang yekia ngthu pyen lü na jah mtheiki, u am hngalang na lü akcanga Pamhnama lama ngthu na jah mthei khawiki ti kami ksingki;
22 Is it lawful (for us *N(k)O*) to Caesar tribute to give or not?
“Romah bawi üng ngcawn kami ngcawn hin ngkawiki aw,” Am ngkawiki aw?” tia ami kthäh.
23 having perceived however of them the craftiness He said to them (why *KO*) (me do you test; *K*)
Cunsepi, Jesuh naw ami hleihlak jah ksing lü,
24 (do show *N(k)O*) Me a denarius; Of whom has it [the] image and inscription? (Those *N(K)O*) And they said; Caesar’s.
“Tangka mat na mhmuh law ua, ua müihmai la ua ngming ni a ng’yuk?” a ti. Acunüng, amimi naw, “Romah Bawi” ami ti.
25 And He said (to *no*) (them; *N(k)O*) Therefore do give back the [things] of Caesar to Caesar and the [things] of God to God.
Jesuh naw, “Acunüng Romah Bawia ka cun Romah Bawi üng pe u lü, Pamhnama ka cun Pamhnam üng pe ua,” a ti.
26 And not they were able to catch Him in (His *NK(o)*) declaration before the people, and having marveled at the answer of Him they became silent.
Acunüng, khyang hea ma ngthu a pyen msawk, ami man vai i am hmu u; a jah msangnak cun aktäa kyüh u lü ä msimsawt u lü awmki he.
27 Having approached then some of the Sadducees, the ones (denying *NK(o)*) a resurrection not being, they questioned Him
Acunüng, thawhnak be am ve, tikiea Saduke avang he, Jesuha veia law u lü,
28 saying; Teacher, Moses wrote to us: if anyone’s brother shall die having a wife and he childless (shall be, *N(K)O*) that shall take the brother of him the wife and shall raise up seed to the brother of him.
“Saja aw, Mosi naw a yuknak üng, khyang naw am ca lü a khyu a thih tak üng angsawn am a dütnak vaia, a bena naw a khäm be vai tia awmki.
29 Seven therefore brothers there were; and the first having taken a wife died childless,
“Ajana ngbengna khyüh awmki he. Akcük säih khyu mahki am ca lü thiki.
30 and (took *K*) the second (wife and this died childless *K*)
“Acunüng, anghnginak naw a khäm be,
31 and the third took her (likewise *o*) likewise then also the seven not did leave children and died.
Acunüng akthumnak naw a khäm be, acunkba bäa akhyühnak cäpa ami khäm be te am ca u lü avan naw ami thih tak.
32 Finally (now of all *K*) also the woman died.
“Akdüta nghnumi pi thiki.
33 (The woman *no*) therefore in the resurrection, of which of them does she become wife? For the seven had her as wife.
“Ami van khyüh naw ami khyunak. Acunakyase, thawhnak bea mhmüp üng, ua khyua kya hlüki ni?” ami ti.
34 And (answering *k*) said to them Jesus; The sons of the age this marry and (are given in marriage, *N(k)O*) (aiōn g165)
Acunüng Jesuh naw, jah msang lü, “Hina khawmdek khyang he ngkhyungla u lü awmki he; (aiōn g165)
35 those however having been considered worthy of the age that [one] to obtain and of the resurrection from [the] dead neither marry nor (are given in marriage; *N(k)(o)*) (aiōn g165)
cunsepi, tuha thinak üngka naw tho be ngkawikia ngaikyuki he cun ä ngkhyungla be u lü, khyu ca vaia pi am ngpeei kyu be u lü; (aiōn g165)
36 (neither *N(k)O*) for to die any more are they able, like [the] angels for they are, and sons they are (*k*) of God of the resurrection sons being.
“Athiha pi am thi be thei ti u, khankhawngsä hea mäih law u lü, thihnak üngka naw ami thawh bea phäha Pamhnama ca hea kyaki he.
37 for however are raised the dead, even Moses showed at the bush when he names [the] Lord the God of Abraham and (the *k*) God of Isaac and (the *k*) God of Jacob.’
“Mosi naw, akthi he tho be khai he ti lü saksiki. Cangcim üng kpyapa däinak pyen lü, ‘Pamhnam cun Abrahama Pamhnam, Isaka Pamhnam, Jakopa Pamhnam’ tia pyenki.
38 God now not He is of [the] dead but of [the] living; all for to Him live.
“Pamhnam cun akthi hea Mhnama am kya, akxüng hea Mhnama kyaki. Ania phäha avan xüngki he ni,” a ti.
39 Answering now some of the scribes said; Teacher, well you have spoken.
Thum ksing avang naw msang u lü, “Saja aw, cang veki,” ami ti.
40 no longer no longer (then *N(k)O*) were they daring to ask Him no [thing].
Acunkäna ipi am ami kthäh be theia phäha kyaki.
41 He said then to them; How do they declare the Christ to be David's Son
Acunüng, Jesuh naw, “Ikba Mesijah cun Davita capa, ami ti thei ni?
42 (and *ko*) Himself (for *no*) David says in [the] book of Psalms: Said (the *ko*) Lord to the Lord of me; do sit at [the] right hand of Me
“Davit amät naw Mküinaka ng’äi üng pyen lü, ‘Bawipa naw ka Bawipa veia pyen lü: ‘Ka kpat da ngawa,
43 until when I may place the enemies of You [as] a footstool of the feet of You.
Na ye he na khawkunga ka jah tak law vei däa, ka kpat da ngawa’ a ti.
44 David therefore Lord Him calls, and how of him son is He?
“Acukba Davit naw Mesijah üng, ‘Bawipa aw’ a ti üng ikba a mjükphyüia kya thei khai ni?” a ti.
45 When are listening now all the people He said to the disciples of Him;
Acunüng, khyang he avana ngjaka, axüisaw hea veia,
46 do beware of the scribes who are desiring to walk in long robes and loving greetings in the marketplaces and first seats in the synagogues and first places in the banquets,
“Thum ksing he jah cäiei na u; amimi cun suisak aksaü suisa u lü ngtaw hü vai jawngnaki he, jawihtuknaka leisawngnak am nghnukset kyu, Sinakoka ngawhnak kdaw ami yah vai la pawia akdaw säiha hmün ami yah vai ngjahlüki he,
47 who devour the houses of widows and as a pretext at great length pray; These will receive more excessive condemnation.
hmeinu hea khawhthem eiaw u lü, ami im jah yutei u lü, khyanga jah hmuha khawvei ktaiyüki he. Ami khamei vai akse säh ni,” a ti.
