Matthew 15
1 Hanchu Jerusalem renga pharisee le Balam minchupungei senkhat Jisua kôm an honga male a kôm.
Then some Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked,
2 “Ithomo nu ruoisingeiin ei pipungei chongmâk ngei hih an jôm ngâiloi? Sâk an sâk rang khomin balam angin an kut rusûk ngâi mak ngei!” tiin an rekela.
“Why do Your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They do not wash their hands before they eat.”
3 Jisua'n an kôm, “Ithomo Pathien chongpêk jômloiin nin theia chongmâk nin jûi hih?
Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?
4 Pathien'n, ‘Nu nû le na pa mirit tho roh,’ male ‘Tukhom a nû mo, a pa mo, khomâksâm chu that rang ani,’ a ti ani.
For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’
5 Hannirese, nangnin chu tutu a nu mo, a pa mo, sanna rang imini neinun a dôna, aniatachu, ‘Mahi Pathien ta kêng ani zoi a tiin chu,’
But you say that if anyone says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from me is a gift devoted to God,’
6 a nû mo, a pa mo mirit a tho rang nâng khâi mak nin ti ngâia. Ma ang han, nin chongmâk nin jôm theina rangin Pathien chongpêk chu itên nin be ngâiloi ani.
he need not honor his father or mother with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition.
7 Nangni asarotholngei! Isaiah'n nin chungroi alei misîr hah adik bâkna!”:
You hypocrites! Isaiah prophesied correctly about you:
8 “Hi mingei hin an chongbâiin min mirita, aniatachu an mulungrîl chu adiktakin kei renga alazan.
‘These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me.
9 An miriem minchuna balamngei hah ka balamngei anghan an be sikin min biekna hih anni rangin kamnângloi kêng ani, Pathien'n a ti!” tiin a thuona.
They worship Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of men.’”
10 Hanchu Jisua'n lokongei hah a kôm a koi ngeia, an kôm, “Rangâi ungla, rietthei roi!
Jesus called the crowd to Him and said, “Listen and understand.
11 Mi bâia lût han a minnim ngâi ni maka; manêkin chu a bâi renga hong suok han kêng a minnim ngâi,” a tia.
A man is not defiled by what enters his mouth, but by what comes out of it.”
12 Male a ruoisingei an honga, a kôm, “No chong han Phariseengei mulung amophop ti ni riet mo?” an tia.
Then the disciples came to Him and said, “Are You aware that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?”
13 Jisua'n, “Kung murdi invâna ka Pa phun niloi chu phôipaiin om an tih,” tiin a thuona.
But Jesus replied, “Every plant that My heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by its roots.
14 “An chungroia nin kângmindoi no roi! Anni ngei hah mitcho ngei ruoipu mitcho an nia; mitcho hah mitcho nanâkin a kairuoiin chu an ruonin khura tâk an tih,” tiin a thuona.
Disregard them! They are blind guides. If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.”
15 Peter a chonga, “Ma chong omtie hih mi rilminthâr pe roh,” a tia.
Peter said to Him, “Explain this parable to us.”
16 Jisua'n an kôm, “Midangngei nêkin atûnten la vâr uol mak chei.
“Do you still not understand?” Jesus asked.
17 Nin rietthei loi mo ani? I neinun khom miriem bâia lût murdi chu a phûnga a lûta, masuole chu a nômsena ajôkpai ngâi ani.
“Do you not yet realize that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then is eliminated?
18 Aniatachu neinunngei bâi renga hong suok chu mulungrîl renga hong suok ania, ma neinunngei hah kêng miriem minnim ngâi.
But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a man.
19 A mulungrîl renga mindonna saloi ngei ahong suoka, mangei han kêng a ruoia mi thatnangei, inrênangei, hur inditnangei, inrunangei, mi huongnangei le adikloi teta midang êronangei a musuok ngâi ani.
For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, and slander.
20 Hi neinunngei hih, miriem minnim ngâi chu ani. Aniatachu an ti anghan nin kutngei rusûk loia sâknêk nin sâk hin chu miriem minnim ngâi mak,” a tia.
These are what defile a man, but eating with unwashed hands does not defile him.”
21 Jisua'n ha mun hah mâkin Tyre le Sidon khopuilienngei kôla ramhuol revêla a sea.
Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the district of Tyre and Sidon.
22 Ha rama om Canaan nuvengte inkhat a kôm a honga, “David Nâipasal! Inrieng ni mu roh, pu! Ka nâinupang ramkhori'n a sûra, changrangintak sabakin aom ani,” tiin ânieka.
And a Canaanite woman from that region came to Him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is miserably possessed by a demon.”
23 Hannirese, Jisua'n chongbâi khat luon thuon mak. A ruoisingei a kôm an honga, “Hi nu hih tîrpai ta roh! Ei nûk mi jûia, michok chuchur!” tiin an ngêna.
But Jesus did not answer a word. So His disciples came and urged Him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”
24 Male Jisua'n, “Israel mingei lâia belri inmangngei kôm vai kêng tîr ki ni,” tiin a thuona.
He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
25 Ha chong hah nuvengtenu han a rietin chu a honga, a ke bula an boka. “Pu, ni san roh!” a tia.
The woman came and knelt before Him. “Lord, help me!” she said.
26 Jisua'n, “Nâingei vâipôl lâk pea uingei kôma pêk chu dik mak,” tiin a thuona.
But Jesus replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
27 Nuvengtenu han a kôm, “Pu, maha chu adik, aniatachu uingei khomin an pungei dosâng nuoia vâipôl hâr atâk chu an sâk ngâi mo ka ta,” tiin a thuona.
“Yes, Lord,” she said, “even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”
28 Masikin Jisua'n a kôm, “Nuvengtenu taksônna lientak dôn ni ni! Nu nuom tak hah na ta rangin sinin om a tih,” a tipea. Male a nâinupang hah ma zoratak han a hong dam pe zoi ani.
“O woman,” Jesus answered, “your faith is great! Let it be done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.
29 Jisua'n ha mun renga hah a sea, Galilee dîl kôla a lôna. Tânga a kala male ân sung zoi.
Moving on from there, Jesus went along the Sea of Galilee. Then He went up on a mountain and sat down.
30 Mipui tamtak a kôm an honga, kholra, mitcho, achôp, chongtheiloi le damloi dang tamtak Jisua ke bula an hong tuonga; a lei mindam ngei leta.
Large crowds came to Him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others, and laid them at His feet, and He healed them.
31 Mipui ngei han chongtheiloi hong chong, ân-ûng a hong dam, kholra hong lônthei le mitcho hong muthei ngei hah an mûn chu an kamâm sabaka, hanchu Israel Pathien an minpâk zoi ani.
The crowd was amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled restored, the lame walking, and the blind seeing. And they glorified the God of Israel.
32 Hanchu Jisua'n a ruoisingei a koia, an kôm, “Mipui ngei hih sûnthum ko kôm an om zoia, atûn hin ite sâk rang an dônloi sikin ku lungkham ngei tatak. Bungêiin tîrpai ngei rang nuom mu-ung, aninôn chu lampuia châmsôl invei an tih,” a tia.
Then Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may faint along the way.”
33 Ruoisingei han a kôm, “Hi dôra mipui vâi minkhopna rangin hi ramchâra hin khonmo sâknêk ei man ranga?” tiin an rekela.
The disciples replied, “Where in this desolate place could we find enough bread to feed such a large crowd?”
34 Jisua'n, “Vâipôl idôrmo nin dôn?” tiin a rekela; Anni han “Vâipôltâp sari” le “ngate atômte,” an tia.
“How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied, “and a few small fish.”
35 Masikin Jisua'n mipui ngei hah nuoia insung rangin chong a pêka.
And He instructed the crowd to sit down on the ground.
36 Male vâipôltâp sari le nga hah a lâka, Pathien kôm râisânchong rilin a khoia, ruoisingei kôm a pêka; male ruoisingei han mipui ngei kôm an pêka.
Taking the seven loaves and the fish, He gave thanks and broke them. Then He gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.
37 An rêngin an sâka an khoppaka. Hanchu ruoisingei han an sâk minieng arnôi tabông sari an rût minsipa.
They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
38 Asâkngei hah nupangngei le nâipangngei telloiin mi isâng minli an ni.
A total of four thousand men were fed, in addition to women and children.
39 Masuole chu Jisua'n mipui ngei a tîrpai ngei suolechu rukuonga a chuonga, Magadan ramhuol tieng a se zoi ani.
After Jesus had dismissed the crowds, He got into the boat and went to the region of Magadan.
