Luk 20
1 Saasiit Jisu ih Rangteenok ni miloong asuh nyootsootta nyia Ruurang Ese tiit baatta adi, romwah phokhoh nyia Hootthe nyootte loong, ah mihak phokhoh loong damdi roong ra rumha no
It happened on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, that the chief priests and scribes came to him with the elders.
2 li rumta, “Baat thaak he, an arah loong ah o chaan nawa ih reeraang lu? Arah jen reetheng chaan ah an suh o ih kotaho?”
They asked him, "Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?"
3 Jisu ih ngaakbaat rumta, “Amadoh sen suh jengkhaap chaak cheng rumha. Baat he,
He answered them, "I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
4 Juungtemte Joon ih juungtem kahoon arah Rangte jiin nawa tama mina jiin nawa chota?”
the baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from man?"
5 Eno neng chamchiini phang daanmui rumta, “Seng ih mamet baat ih? Seng ih ‘Rangte re nawa’ et li ih bah, ‘Erah ang abah, sen ih Juungtemte Joon ah mamah lahanpi ih han?’ ih li baat he.
They reasoned with themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Why did you not believe him?'
6 Eno ‘Mina re nawa,’ ih mok baat ih bah, arah than miloong ah ih seng ah jong ih paat he, tumeah neng ih Joon ah khowah ih ejen jat et rumta.”
But if we say, 'From man,' all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet."
7 Erah thoih ih neng ih amet ngaakbaat rumta, “Seng ih tajatke ma nawa ra taha rah ah.”
They answered that they did not know where it was from.
8 Eno Jisu ih li rumta, “Erah ang abah, ngah marah nawa chaan ih jen reelang erah uh sen suh tabaat rumra.”
Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."
9 Eno Jisu ih arah tiitthaak ah miloong suh baatta: “Teewadi mih wasiit ih potiik phek phekta, eno phekphoop phekte suh phek thukta, eno heh ah saaloh dook ih heh nok ni tangtong wangta.
He began to tell the people this parable. "A man planted a vineyard, and rented it out to some farmers, and went on a journey for a long time.
10 Eno anggut tiik huitok ah chang ano, changte warah ih phekphoop phekte wah jiinni heh dah ah daapwan ano heh dabbi ah suwang thukta. Enoothong phekphoop phekte loong ah ih dah ah buh rum ano hahuung we ngaakdaap rumta.
At the proper season, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat him, and sent him away empty.
11 Eno heh ih dah wahoh we daap wanta; erah uh phekphoop phekte loong ah ih emamah we buh rum ano, heh rakri laandong ruh ih li wanrumta, eno hahuung we ngaakkaat thuk rumta.
He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
12 Eno changte warah ih takjom adi wasiit we daap wanta; phekphoop phekte loong ah ih erah warah uh rapne ih buh rum ano, haatkaat rumta.
He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him, and threw him out.
13 Eno phek changte warah ih liita, ‘Ngah ih tumjih et ang nih? Ngah ih nga mongnook sah ah laan daapwan ang; neng ih boleh esoomtu jaatjaat et rum anih!’
The lord of the vineyard said, 'What am I to do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that they will respect him.'
14 Enoothong phekphoop phekte loong ah ih japtup rum ano, neng chamchi ni wasiit wasiit suh hubaat mui rumta, ‘Arah tang changte wah sah joh. Heh ah tek haat ih no, heh nyamka loong ah thong toom kap ih!’
"But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'
15 Eno neng ih tekbuh rum ano phaakkhuh ni haatkaat rumta. “Erah ang abah phek changte warah ih phekphoop phekte loong ah tumjih et ah?” Jisu ih cheng rumta.
They threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16 “Heh ah wangha no phekphoop phekte loong ah tek haat et ah, eno wahoh suh we phek thuk ah.” Miloong ah ih erah chaat rum ano edaan et rumta, “Emabah mabah uh tah angka!”
He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others." When they heard it, they said, "May it never be."
17 Jisu ah nengko ih sok ano cheng rumta, “Erah ang abah, Rangteele ni arah raangha rah tumjih suh liita? ‘Nok hoonte ih jong ah maak di tachapka ih li ano thaangmuh jong et piihaatta rah, thoontang nang ih elongthoon maak di chapla.’
But he looked at them, and said, "Then what is this that is written, 'The stone which the builders rejected, the same was made the chief cornerstone?'
18 O bah uh erah jong khoh adoh dat ah hechep hechep ih jopkhan ah; erah dam ih erah jong ah o sak khonah bah uh mok dat abah, erah mih ah bungwiik nah bunram ih matpat ah.”
Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will crush him."
19 Romwah phokhoh nyia Hootthe Nyootte loong ih Jisu ah erarah doh khak suh taat chung rumta, tumeah neng ih ejat et rumta heh ih neng suh li thung ang ano erah tiitthaak ah baat ha eah; enoothong neng ah miloong ra cho rumta.
The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.
20 Erah thoidi neng ih heh thetre ah hubansok ruh et rumta. Neng ih mararah mih asuh ngun ah hukoleh toongtang likhiik ih diip reeraang thuk rumta, eno leh Jisu reeni mat ih deejoot suh tumjih tumjih diipcheng wang thuk rumta, tumeah Room hate ngoong awang nyia Kobono suh jootkhak kot suh chung rumta.
They watched him, and sent out spies, who pretended to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.
21 Heh juujeengte loong ih Jisu suh baatta, “Nyootte, seng ih jat ehi marah an ih nyoot hu rah epun eah. Seng ih jat ehi an ih o ang abah uh ehin elong tadandeeko, erah nang ih mina suh Rangte thungpunjih amiisak tiit ah nyootsoot hu.
They asked him, "Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and are not partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.
22 Baat thaak he, seng ih Roman Luungwanglong suh, seng Hootthe jun ih sokse ah ekot tam koke?”
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?"
23 Enoothong Jisu ih neng mongtham ah jat ano li rumta,
But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them,
24 “Ngunkholok ah noisok thaak he. Arah ngun adi o laaphaang ah nyia o men ah?” “Luungwanglong men nyia heh laaphaang,” neng ih ngaak baatta.
"Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?" They answered, "Caesar's."
25 Eno Jisu ih baat rumta, “Ese ang ah, erah ang abah Luungwanglong dabbi ah Luungwanglong suh ju koh an, eno Rangte dabbi ah Rangte suh ju koh an.”
He said to them, "Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."
26 Erah di noksong ngathong ni neng ih hejeng matjoot jih tajap chaat rumta erah thoidi suusu ih tong rum ano, heh jeng ngaak asuh paatja rumta.
They weren't able to trap him in his words before the people. And amazed at his answer, they fell silent.
27 Eno mararah Sadusi miloong ih, mina tek nawa tangaak thingka ih liite loong ah, ra rumha no Jisu suh cheng rumta,
Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
28 “Nyootte, Moses ih seng suh arah Hootthe ah raangthiinta: ‘Miwah ah tek ano, heh minuh ah sah muh et thiinhaat abah, thaknuh rah etekte no rah ih kap jaatjaat ejih, eno heh sah ah dong tup ano etekte wah sah et thiik ah.’
They asked him, "Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's brother dies having a wife, and he is childless, his brother should take the wife, and raise up children for his brother.
29 Teewadi soophoh wasinet angta; phokhothoon ah ih heh minuh ah kap ano sah muh ih mattiita.
There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
30 Eno minuh rah miidamwah dam adi we chosongta,
The second and
31 erah lilih noolih damdi we chosongta. Emamah soophoh wasinet ah neng sah muh ih matti rumta.
the third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
32 Lithoon adi, minuh ah thoon mattiita.
Afterward the woman also died.
33 Eno bah, tek nawa ngaakthing sa doh, erah nuh ah o sanuh angtheng ah? Tumeah erah nuh ah soophoh wah sinetnet damdi chosongta.”
Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife."
Jesus said to them, "The people of this age marry and are given to someone to marry. (aiōn g165)
35 enoothong minuh miwah o ang abah uh tek nawa jen ngaakthing ete loong nyia lakngah nawa roidong adoh thingtongte loong abah tanook mui rumka ang ah. (aiōn g165)
But those who are regarded as worthy of a place in that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given to someone to marry. (aiōn g165)
36 Neng ah latek thang ih rangsah loong likhiik ang rum ah. Neng loong ah Rangte sah ang ah, tumeah neng tek nawa ngaaksaat rumta.
For they cannot die any more, for they are like the angels, and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
37 Eno Moses ih samsek ih jatthuk ha etekte ah ewe ngaakthing ete eah. Bangphook ni we luungta tiit raangha adi Moses ih Teesu suh Abraham Rangte, Isak Rangte nyia Jaakob Rangte ih liita.’
But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord 'The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.'
38 Heh ah ethingte loong Rangte, etekte Rangte tah angka, heh nawa ih thoontang ah ething.”
Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him."
39 Mararah Hootthe nyootte loong ah toonjengta, “Ese ih ngaakbaat hali, Nyootte!”
Some of the scribes answered, "Teacher, you speak well."
40 Eno erah tokkhodi neng ih takah naan cheng rumta.
They did not dare to ask him any more questions.
41 Jisu ih cheng rumta, “Kristo ah Dewid sutoom ih mamet mi liita?
He said to them, "Why do they say that the Christ is David's son?
42 Tumeah Dewid heh teeteewah ih Dewid Boong leedap adi liiha, ‘Teesu ih nga Teesu suh liita: Nga jaawako adoh tong uh
David himself says in the scroll of Psalms, 'The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand,
43 anpi anra loong ah ngah ih an lakhu nah maang langlang thuk ah.’
until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet."'
44 Dewid ih heh suh ‘Teesu’ et liita; erah ang abah, Kristo ah Dewid sutoom mamah mi ang ah?”
"David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?"
45 Miloong ih heh jeng boichaat rumta adi, Jisu ih heliphante loong suh baatta,
In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
46 “Sen teeteewah Hootthe nyootte loong dowa sokthun samthun ih tong an, neng samsong elootlootwah ih song rum ano thaangsang thengnah mih ih jengseera nyia soomtu ah seechoh rumha; neng ih Jehudi loong rangsoomnok ni tongtheng ese ban thiin thuk nyia sadung theng ni tongtheng ese nah tong suh thunte loong re nawa ah;
"Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;
47 thaknuh loong kaanjuukhu et sok rum ano neng nok ah long et rumha, eno leh rangsoom jeng ah eloot lootwah ih jeng rum leh noisok et rumha! Neng chamnaang theng ah rapne ethithoon ang ah!”
who devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers: these will receive greater condemnation."
