1And calling His twelve disciples to Him, Jesus gave them authority over unclean spirits, so that they could drive them out and heal every disease and sickness.
1Anih loe kami hatlai hnettonawk to angmah khaeah kawk moe, kasae taqawknawk haek thaihaih, ngannathaih hoi congca nathaihnawk hoisakthaihaih to a paek.
2These are the names of the twelve apostles: first Simon, called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John;
2Patoeh ih kami hatlai hnettonawk ih ahmin loe; hmaloe koek ah, Piter, tiah kawk ih Simon hoi amnawk Andru; Zebedi capa Jakob hoi amnawk Johan;
3Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;
3Philip hoi Bartholomu; Thomas hoi tamut congkung Mathai; Alfai capa Jokob hoi Lebbai, tiah kalah ahmin kaom Thadai;
4Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus.
4Kananite, tiah kawk ih Simon, Anih kaminawk ban ah paekkung, Juda Iskariot cae hae ni.
5These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go onto the road of the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans.
5Jesu mah hae kami hatlai hnettonawk patoeh moe, nihcae khaeah, Gentel kaminawk khaeah caeh o hmah, Samaritan kaminawk ih vangpui ah doeh akun o hmah:
6Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.
6toe tuu kanghmaa Israel imthung takohnawk khaeah caeh oh.
7As you go, preach this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near.’
7Na caeh o naah, van prae loe zoi boeh, tiah taphong oh.
8Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.
8Nganna kaminawk to ngantui o sak ah, ngansae man kaminawk to ciim o sak ah loe, kadueh kaminawk to pathawk oh, taqawknawk to haek oh: azom ah na hnuk o ih hmuen to azom ah paek oh.
9Do not carry any gold or silver or copper in your belts.
9Phoisa tabu thungah sui, sum kanglung hoi sum kamling phoisa to sin o hmah,
10Take no bag for the road, or second tunic, or sandals, or staff; for the worker is worthy of his provisions.
10kholong na caeh o naah pasah, khukbuen hnetto, khokpanai hoi cunghet doeh sin o hmah: toksahkung loe a tok sakhaih atho to hnuk han krak.
11Whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy there and stay at his house until you move on.
11Vangpui ah maw, to tih ai boeh loe vangta ah maw, na kun o naah, na toemh o han koi im to pakrong oh; to ahmuen hoi na hloi o ai karoek to to im ah om o poe ah.
12As you enter the home, greet its occupants.
12Im maeto thungah na kun o naah, lok tapring oh.
13If the home is worthy, let your peace rest on it; but if it is not, let your peace return to you.
13To im ah oh han amcuk nahaeloe, na monghaih a nuiah om nasoe: toe amcuk ai nahaeloe, na monghaih to nangmah khaeah amlaem let nasoe.
14And if anyone will not welcome you or heed your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town.
14Mi kawbaktih doeh nang toemsak ai, na lok doeh tahngai ai nahaeloe, to im hoiah maw, to tih ai boeh loe to vangpui hoiah maw na tacawt o naah, na khok pong ih maiphu to takhoek oh.
15Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.
15Loktang kang thuih o, lokcaekhaih niah to vangpui loe Sodom hoi Gomorrah vangpui pongah nung kue tih.
16Behold, I am sending you out like sheep among wolves; therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.
16Khenah, tasuinawk salak ih tuu baktiah ni kang patoeh o: to pongah pahui baktiah palungha oh loe, pahuu baktiah acoe oh.
17But beware of men; for they will hand you over to their councils and flog you in their synagogues.
17Kaminawk khae hoiah acoe oh: to tih ai nahaeloe lokcaekhaih im ah na caeh o haih ueloe, angmacae ih Sineko ah na bop o moeng tih.
18On My account, you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles.
18Kai pongah nihcae hoi Gentel kaminawk khaeah hnukung ah na oh o hanah, prae ukkungnawk hoi siangpahrangnawk khaeah na caeh o haih tih.
19But when they hand you over, do not worry about how to respond or what to say. In that hour you will be given what to say.
19Toe ang naeh o naah, nangcae mah kawbangmaw ka thuih o han, timaw ka thuih o han, tiah poek o hmah: to na atue thuem roe ah, na thuih o han ih lok to na paek tih.
20For it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.
20Lokthuikung loe nangcae na ai ni, nangcae Ampa ih Muithla mah ni nangcae thungah lok to thuih.
21Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rise against their parents and have them put to death.
21Nawkamya mah nawkamya, ampa mah a caa to paduek hanah paek tih: a caanawk mah amno hoi ampa to misa ah suem ueloe, nihcae to paduek hanah sah o tih.
22You will be hated by everyone because of My name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.
22Kai pongah kaminawk boih mah na hnukma o tih: toe boeng khoek to pauep kami loe pahlonghaih to hnu tih.
23When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next. Truly I tell you, you will not reach all the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.
23Ahmuen maeto ah na pacaekthlaek o nahaeloe, kalah ahmuen bangah caeh o taak ah: loktang kang thuih o, Kami Capa angzo ai karoek to Israel ih vangpuinawk to nam kae o boih mak ai.
24A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master.
24Ca amtuk kami loe patukkung ranui ah om ai, tamna doeh angmah ih angraeng ranui ah om ai.
25It is enough for a disciple to be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebul, how much more the members of his household!
25Ca amtuk kami to patukkung baktiah oh moe, tamna doeh angraeng baktiah oh boeh loe khawt boeh. Im tawnkung to Beelzabub, tiah kawk o nahaeloe, anih imthung takoh ih kaminawk cae loe kawkruk maw kawk o tih?
26So do not be afraid of them. For there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, and nothing hidden that will not be made known.
26To pongah nihcae to zii o hmah: amtueng thai han ai ah kraeng ih hmuen tidoeh om ai; panoek thai han ai ah, hawk ih hmuen tidoeh om mak ai.
27What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops.
27Khoving ah kang thuih o ih lok to, khodai ah thui oh: naa hoi na thaih o ih lok to imphu nuiah taphong oh.
28Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Instead, fear the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
28Takpum paduek thaih, hinghaih pakhra paduek thai ai kaminawk to zii o hmah: toe hinghaih pakhra hoi takpum hell thungah paduek thaih hmaek kami to zii oh.
29Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father.
29Paritca hnetto loe phoisa dip maeto hoiah zawh o na ai maw? Toe van ah kaom nangcae Ampa koehhaih baktih ai ah loe maeto doeh long ah krah mak ai.
30And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
30Nangcae lu nui ih sam mataeng doeh kroek boih ah oh.
31So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
31To pongah zii o hmah, nangcae loe paritcanawk pongah atho na oh o kue.
32Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father in heaven.
32To pongah mi kawbaktih doeh kaminawk hmaa ah kai angdoe haih kami loe, van ah kaom kam Pa hmaa ah anih to kang doet haih toeng han.
33But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father in heaven.
33Toe mi kawbaktih doeh kaminawk hmaa ah kai pahnawt kami loe, van ah kaom kam Pa hmaa ah anih to ka pahnawt toeng han.
34Do not assume that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.
34Kai loe angdaehhaih sin han ih ni long ah kang zoh, tiah poek o hmah: angdaehhaih sin hanah kang zo ai, sumsen sin han ih ni kang zoh.
35For I have come to turn ‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
35Kai pongah kami mah ampa to misa ah suem tih, canu mah amno to misa ah suem ueloe, langah mah angmah ih amni to misa ah suem tih,
36A man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’
36a imthung ih kami a misa ah ohsak han ih ni kang zoh, tiah a naa.
37Anyone who loves his father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me;
37Kai pongah amno maw, ampa maw, palung kue kami loe kai ih kami ah oh han amcuk ai; a canu maw, a capa maw, kai pongah palung kue kami loe kai ih kami ah oh han amcuk ai.
38and anyone who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me.
38Angmah ih thinglam to aput moe, ka hnukah bang ai kami loe, kai ih kami ah oh han amcuk ai.
39Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.
39A hinghaih pakrong kami loe, pathlong ving tih: kai pongah a hinghaih pathlong ving kami loe hinghaih to hnu tih.
40He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives the One who sent Me.
40Nangcae talawk kami loe kai talawk kami ah oh, kai talawk kami loe kai patoehkung talawk kami ah oh.
41Whoever receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward, and whoever receives a righteous man because he is a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.
41Tahmaa ih ahmin hoiah tahmaa talawk kami loe, tahmaa ih tangqum to hnu tih; katoeng kami ih ahmin hoiah katoeng kami talawk kami loe, katoeng kami ih tangqum to hnu tih.
42And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is My disciple, truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.”
42Mi kawbaktih doeh tetta hae kaminawk thung ih maeto khaeah, hnukbang kami maeto ih ahmin hoiah tui angqai boengloeng maeto paek kami loe, loktang kang thuih o, angmah ih tangqum to sung mak ai, tiah a naa.
