Luke 20
1 It came about one day, as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes came to him with the elders.
Hnin at ah bawkim khuikah pilnam te a thuituen tih olthangthen a phong vaengah khosoihham rhoek, cadaek rhoek neh patong rhoek loh a pai thiluh.
2 They spoke, saying to him, “Tell us by what authority you do these things, or who it is who gave you this authority.”
Te vaengah anih te a voek uh tih, “Mebang saithainah nen lae na saii he kaimih taengah thui lah? He saithainah he nang aka paek om nim,” a ti nauh.
3 He answered and said to them, “I will also ask you a question, and you tell me.
Te dongah amih te a doo tih, “Nangmih te ol pakhat kan dawt saeh lamtah kai n'doo uh.
4 The baptism of John: was it from heaven or from men?”
Johan kah baptisma tah vaan lamkah a, hlang lamkah a a om?” a ti nah.
5 They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Then why did you not believe him?'
Amih long khaw amamih te poek uh tih, “Vaan lamkah n'ti uh koinih, 'Balae tih anih te na tangnah uh pawh,’ a ti veh.
6 But if we say, 'From men,' all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
'Hlang lamkah loh, ' n'ti bal nim te pilnam pum loh mamih he n'dae veh,” a ti uh. Johan te tonghma aka om la ana pang uh.
7 So they answered that they did not know where it came from.
Te dongah, “Me lamkah nim, ka ming pawh,” a ti uh.
8 Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te, “Kai loh mebang saithainah neh ka saii khaw nangmih taengah ka thui mahpawh,” a ti nah.
9 He told the people this parable, “A man planted a vineyard, rented it out to vine growers, and went into another country for a long time.
Te dongah pilnam taengah hekah nuettahnah he a tong tih, “Hlang pakhat loh dum a tue tih lotawn a phaam sak. Te phoeiah amah te kum a sen puet vik yiin.
10 At the appointed time he sent a servant to the vine growers, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard. But the vine growers beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.
A tue vaengah tah dum kah a thaih te amah taengah ham pae uh saeh tila sal pakhat te lotawn rhoek taengla a tueih. Tedae lotawn rhoek loh anih te a boh uh tih a tling la a tueih uh.
11 He then sent yet another servant and they also beat him, treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.
Te phoeiah sal a tloe a rhaep la a tueih bal. Tedae anih a boh uh tih yah a bai phoeiah a tling la a tueih uh.
12 He also sent yet a third and they also wounded him, and threw him out.
A pathum nen khaw a rhaep tih a tueih dae te khaw hmalaem la a haek uh.
13 So the lord of the vineyard said, 'What will I do? I will send my beloved son. Maybe they will respect him.'
Te dongah dum boei loh, 'Balae ka saii eh? Ka capa thintlo he ka tueih eh?, anih tah a yahnah uh kaming,’ a ti.
14 But when the vine growers saw him, they discussed among themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'
Tedae anih te lotawn rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah khat neh khat dawtlet uh thae tih, 'Rhopangkung tah anih coeng ni, anih he ngawn uh sih, te vaengah rho te mamih ham om saeh,’ a ti uh.
15 They threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
Te dongah anih te a vai uh tih dum voelah a gawnuh. Te vaengah dum boei loh amih te metlam a saii eh?
16 He will come and destroy these vine growers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard it, they said, “May it never be!”
Tedae amih lotawn rhoek te a paan vetih a poci sak ni, dum te khaw a tloe taengla a paek ni,” a ti nah. A yaak uh vaengah, “A coeng moenih,” a ti uh.
17 But Jesus looked at them, and said, “What is the meaning of that which is written: 'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone'?
Tedae Jesuh loh amih te a sawt tih, “A daek tangtae he balae aka om bal pueng. Im aka sa rhoek loh a hnawt lungto te, imkil a soi la pawk ta.
18 Every one who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces. But on whomever it falls, it will crush.”
Tekah lungto aka tlak thil boeih te tah tlawt uh vetih, amah a tlak thil atah amah te tip ni,” a ti nah.
19 So the scribes and the chief priests sought to lay hands on him in that very hour, for they knew that he had spoken this parable against them. But they were afraid of the people.
Te dongah cadaek rhoek neh khosoihham rhoek long tah amah vaengah Jesuh te kut hlah thil ham a mae uh. He nuettahnah he amih a thui thil te a ming uh ngawn dae pilnam te khaw koek a rhih uh.
20 Watching him carefully, they sent out spies who pretended to be righteous, that they might find fault with his speech, so as to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor.
Anih aka dawn rhoek te a huep la a tueih uh tih amamih te a dueng la om ham sa uh. Te vaengah a ol tuuk pah ham, Jesuh te boeilu neh khoboei kah saithainah dongah voeih hamla caiuh.
21 They asked him, saying, “Teacher, we know that you say and teach rightly, and are not influenced by anyone's position, but you teach the truth about the way of God.
Te dongah Jesuh te a dawt uh tih, “Saya, nang loh buelh buelh na thui tih na thuituen dongah maelhmai na dan pawt te ka ming uh. Tedae Pathen kah oltak longpuei ah ni na thuituen.
22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
Kaisar taengah mangmu paek he mamih ham thuem a, thuem pawt a?” a ti nauh.
23 But Jesus understood their craftiness, and said to them,
Tedae amih kah rhaithinah te a hmat dongah amamih te,
24 “Show me a denarius. Whose image and name is on it?” They said, “Caesar's.”
“Denarii pakhat te kai n'tueng uh lah, u kah muei neh ming lae aka om,” a ti nah hatah, “Kaisar kah,” a ti uh.
25 He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.”
Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te, “Kaisar koe te Kaisar taengla, Pathen koe te Pathen taengla mael uh,” a ti nah.
26 They were not able to find fault with what he had said in front of the people, but marveling at his answer, they were silent.
Tedae pilnam hmaiah anih ol tuuk pah ham coeng uh voel pawh. A ollannah te khaw a ngaihmang uh tih a kam a khuem uh. Sadducees neh Thohkoepnah
27 When some of the Sadducees came to him, the ones who say that there is no resurrection,
Thohkoepnah om pawh tila boe aka koek Sadducee hlangvang long khaw a paan uh tih a dawt uh.
28 they asked him, saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's brother dies, having a wife, and being childless, the man should take the brother's wife, and have a child for his brother.
Te vaengah, “Saya, Moses loh kaimih ham a daek coeng, pakhat te a maya loh yuu a khueh tih a duek vaengah cakol la a om atah a yuu te a mana loh lo saeh lamtah a mayaa ham a tiingan thoh pah saeh,’ a ti.
29 There were seven brothers and the first took a wife, and died childless,
Te vaengah boeinaphung parhih lo uh tih, lamhma loh yuu a loh dae cakol la duek.
30 and the second as well.
Te phoeiah a pabae loh a pathum loh huta te a loh.
31 The third took her, and likewise the seven also left no children, and died.
Te vanbangla a parhih long khaw camoe om mueh la a caehtak tih duek bal.
32 Afterward the woman also died.
A hnukkhueng ah huta te khaw duek.
33 In the resurrection then, whose wife will she be? For the seven had her as their wife.”
Thohkoepnah dongah huta te u kah yuu lam lae a om eh? Parhih loh anih te yuu la a khueh uh tih,” a ti nauh.
Te dongah amih te Jesuh loh, “Ta kumhal kah camoe rhoek loh yuloh rhaihlan neh om uh. (aiōn g165)
35 But those who are regarded as worthy in that age to receive the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
Kumhal kah te dang ham neh duek lamkah loh thohkoepnah dongkah aka tiing rhoek long tah yuu a loh, va a sak uh moenih. (aiōn g165)
36 Neither can they die anymore, for they are equal to the angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
Vaanpuencawn la a om uh dongah koep duek ham khaw om pawh. Pathen kah a ca la om uh tih thohkoepnah kah a ca la poeh uh bal.
37 But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the place concerning the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.
Tedae aka duek rhoek a thoh te Moses loh tangpuem taengah ana phoe pataeng coeng. Te vanbangla Boeipa te Abraham Pathen, Isaak Pathen neh Jakob Pathen ana ti coeng.
38 Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, because all live to him.”
Tedae aka duek rhoek kah pawt tih aka hing rhoek kah Pathen ni, anih dongah ni boeih a hing uh,” a ti nah.
39 Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you have answered well.”
Cadaek hlangvang rhoek loh a doo tih, “Saya, buelh na thui coeng,” a ti nah.
40 For they did not dare ask him any more questions.
Amah te dawt ham ngaingaih uh voel pawh.
41 Jesus said to them, “How do they say that the Christ is David's son?
Jesuh loh amih te, “Metlamlae Khrih te, 'David capa ni,’ a ti uh?
42 For David himself says in the Book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, 'Sit at my right hand,
David amah loh Tingtoeng cabu dongah a thui tah, 'Boeipa loh ka boeipa taengah,
43 until I make your enemies your footstool.'
na rhal te na kho ham khotloeng la ka khueh hlan atah kai kah bantang ah ngol dae,’ a ti,'
44 David therefore calls the Christ 'Lord', so how is he David's son?”
David loh anih te Boeipa la a khue atah metlamlae a capa la a om eh?” a ti nah.
45 In the hearing of all the people he said to his disciples,
Pilnam boeih kah a yaak ah a hnukbang rhoek te,
46 “Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and love special greetings in the marketplaces, and chief seats in the synagogues, and chief places at feasts.
“Cadaek rhoek te ngaithuen uh, hnikul neh pongpa aka ngaih uh tih hnoyoih hmuen kah toidalnah, tunim ah ngolhmuen then, buhkung kah hmuensang a lungnah uh.
47 They also devour widows' houses, and for a show they make long prayers. Men like this will receive greater condemnation.”
Amih loh nuhmai rhoek kah im te a yoop pa uh tih mueituengnah ham khing thangthuiuh. He rhoek long ni laitloeknah muep a yook eh?,” a ti nah.
