Matthew 15
1 Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, who were of Jerusalem, saying,
Tua zawkciang Jerusalem pan in, Pharisee te le thukhamhil te Jesus kung ah hongpai uh a,
2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
Banghangin na nungzui te in ka pu le pa ngeina te paltan ziam? Banghangziam cile amate in an a neak tu uh ciang a khut uh sil ngawl hi, ci hi.
3 But he answered and said to them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
Ahihang Jesus in, Banghang in Pathian thupiak te sia na pu le pa ngeina taw paltan nu ziam?
4 For God commanded, saying, Honor thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.
Banghangziam cile, Pathian in thupia a, na nu le na pa zakta in: a nu le a pa a taisan peuma ki that tu hi, ci hi.
5 But ye say, Whoever shall say to [his] father or [his] mother, [It is] a gift, by whatever thou mightest be profited by me;
Ahihang note in, khatpo in a nu a hibale a pa a piak tu khatpo sia, Pathian atu a kipia sa hi, ci a hi po le,
6 And honor not his father or his mother, [he shall be free]. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition.
A nu a hibale a pa sia upat kul nawn ngawl, peng thei hi, ci nu hi. Tabang in note in na pu le pa ngeina zang in Pathian thupiak sia mannei ngawl sua nu hi.
7 [Ye] hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,
No a ki hitheamsak te, kamsang Isaiah in noma thu a mantak in a sonkhol na ah,
8 This people draw nigh to me with their mouth, and honor me with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me.
Hi mite in a kam bek uh taw kei hong neak a, a muk bek taw kei hong upat uh hi; ahihang a thinsung uh sia kei taw ki khuala hi, ci hi.
9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.
Ahihang mihing te thupiakna bang in pomdan te hil a, keima hong biak sia luithathong bek hi, ci in zo kik hi.
10 And he called the multitude, and said to them, Hear, and understand:
Taciang Jesus in mihonpi te sam a, Ngai vun a, he tavun.
11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
Kamsung pan a tum te in mihing ninsak ngawl a, kam sung pan a a pusuak te in mihing ninsak zaw hi, ci hi.
12 Then came his disciples, and said to him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended after they heard this saying?
Tasiaciang a nungzui te a kung ah hongpai a, na thuson te in Pharisee te thin-uksak hi, ci na he ziam? ci uh hi.
13 But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be extirpated.
Jesus in, Vantung a om Ka Pa i suan ngawl peuma ki bot siat tu hi.
14 Let them alone: they are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leadeth the blind, both will fall into the ditch.
Koi lel vun: amate sia mittaw te lamlak mittaw te hi. Mittaw in mittaw lamlak le a ni in luamsung ah tak tu hi, ci in zo kik hi.
15 Then answered Peter and said to him, Declare to us this parable.
Peter in tua thu sontena hong son thiang tan, ci ngen hi.
16 And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?
Jesus in, Note zong tu dong telthiam ngawl lai nu ziam?
17 Do ye not yet understand, that whatever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
Kamsung a tumsuk te theampo sia ngilpi sung ah theng a, taciang dumsung ah vawk hi, ci tu dong tel thei ngawl lai nu ziam?
18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
Ahihang kamsung pan a pusuakte sia thinsung pan pusuak ahikom; tua te in mihing sia ninsak hi.
19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
Banghangziam cile, ngaisutna pha ngawl, tual that, palngul mawna, paktat na, nguta, a man ngawl tetti, sonsiatna te theampo sia thinsung pan in a pusuak a hihi:
20 These are [the things] which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man.
Hite in mihing ninsak hi: hi kale khut sil ngawl anneakna in mihing ninsak ngawl hi, ci hi.
21 Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the territories of Tyre and Sidon.
Jesus tua mun pan pai a, Tyre le Sidon khua kiim teng ah pai hi.
22 And behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same territories, and cried to him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, [thou] son of David; my daughter is grievously afflicted with a demon.
Tua khua kiim ah a teang Canaan numei khat a kung ah hongpai a, Maw Topa, nang David Tapa awng, hong hesuak ka po in, ka tanu sia doai in nasiatak in vawtsia hi, ci in au hi.
23 But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
Ahihang Jesus in kamkhat zong zo kik ngawl hi. A nungzui te hongpai in, hi numei sia not in, banghangziam cile i nung pan in au top hi, ci ngen hi.
24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Ahihang Jesus in, Israel minam sung pan tuu pai te kung simngawl hong ki sawl ngawl hi, ci in zo kik hi.
25 Then came she and worshiped him, saying, Lord, help me.
Tasiaciang tua nu hongpai in, Jesus bia a, Topa awng, hong hu tan, ci hi.
26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast [it] to dogs.
Jesus in ama zo kik a, Tate i anneak laksak in ui piak tu sia ngeina om ngawl hi, ci hi.
27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crums which fall from their master's table.
Numei nu in, man hi, Topa awng: hima kale, to te i sabuai pan anneng tak te buang ui in ne hi, ci hi.
28 Then Jesus answered and said to her, O woman, great [is] thy faith: be it to thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was healed from that very hour.
Tasiazawkciang Jesus in zo kik a, Maw numei nu, na upna lian mama hi: na deina bang in hi tahen, ci hi. Tua hun lian in a tanu damthiang hi.
29 And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh to the sea of Galilee; and ascended a mountain, and sat down there.
Jesus tua mun nusia in, Galilee tuili hui ah pai in; mualtung ah kato hi.
30 And great multitudes came to him, having with them [those that were] lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:
Mihon tampi te a kung ah hongpai a, amate taw peangbai, mittaw, pau thei ngawl, pumpi cing ngawl le a dang tampi te hong paipui a, Jesus peang ah koi tek uh hi; Jesus in amate damsak hi:
31 So that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.
A pau thei ngawl te pau thei, pumpi kim ngawl te dam, peangbai te lampai, mittaw te in khuamu ci mihonpi in a mu uh ciang in lamdangsa tek mama a: Israel te Pathian pok uh hi.
32 Then Jesus called his disciples [to him], and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.
Jesus in a nungzui te sam a, Hi mihonpi te tung ah hesuakna nei khi hi, banghangziam cile ka kung ah nithum sung a kipe in om zo uh a, neak tu bangma nei ngawl hi: amate lamkal ah puk-hong in a tha bo tu ahiciang, an ngawl in ciasak ngawl tu khi hi, ci hi.
33 And his disciples say to him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to satisfy so great a multitude?
Nungzui te in, mihon tampi te a kham in vak natu an tampi hi duisung ah koisung pan om tu ziam? ci uh hi.
34 And Jesus saith to them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.
Jesus in, Anluum bangza nei nu ziam? ci in dong hi. Amate in anluum sali le ngasa nosi tawm, ci uh hi.
35 And he commanded the multitude to sit on the ground.
Tasiaciang Jesus in mihonpi te lei ah to tu in thupia hi.
36 And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and broke [them], and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
Anluum sali le ngasa tawm teng la in, lungdam a ko zawkciang khen in a nungzui te kung ah pia hi, a nungzui te in mihonpi te pia hi.
37 And they all ate and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that were left seven baskets full.
A vekpi a khamteak in ne tek uh hi: tuazawkciang a bal nen sa a val teng a top uh ciang bawm sali dim hi.
38 And they that had eaten were four thousand men, besides women and children.
A nete sia numei le patang ki simngawl pasal tul li pha hi.
39 And he sent away the multitude, and took a boat, and came into the borders of Magdala.
Jesus in mihonpi te ciasak a, ama sia ngunkuang sung ah to in Magdala khua kiim ah theng hi.
