Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1Once again Jesus began to teach beside the sea, and such a large crowd gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people crowded along the shore.
1Tuili kaengah khaw thuituen ham koep a tong tih hlangping loh a taengah a kumngai a tingtun pah. Te dongah amah te tuili kah lawng khuiah ngol hamla kun. Te vaengah hlangping tah tuili taengkah lan soah boeih om uh.
2And He taught them many things in parables, and in His teaching He said,
2Te vaengah amih te nuettahnah neh muep a thuituen tih a thuituennah dongah amih te,
3“Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed.
3“ Hnatun uh lah, cangti aka tuh tah cangti tuh ham cet ne .
4And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.
4A tuh la a om vaengah a ngen tah long ah tla. Te dongah vaa loh a paan tih a kueh .
5Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.
5Te phoeiah a tloe tah laimen muep aka om pawh lungrhong soah tla tih laimen a dung la a om pawt dongah tlek poe .
6But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.
6Tedae khomik a thoeng vaengah a kaeng atah a yung a om pawt dongah koh
7Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings, and they yielded no crop.
7Te phoeiah a tloe tah hling khuiah tla. Hling te a rhoeng vaengah cangti te a thing tih a thaih thaii pawh .
8Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprouted, grew up, and produced a crop—one bearing thirtyfold, another sixtyfold, and another a hundredfold.”
8Te phoeiah, a tloe rhoek tah lai then dongah tla. Te dongah a poe vaengah rhoeng tih a thaih thaii tih a ngen thumkip, a ngen sawmrhuk, a ngen yakhat lo,” a ti nah.
9Then Jesus said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
9Te dongah, “ Yaak nah hna aka khueh loh ya saeh,” a ti nah.
10As soon as Jesus was alone with the Twelve and those around Him, they asked Him about the parable.
10Te dongah amah bueng a om vaengah, a taengvai rhoek neh hlainit rhoek loh nuettahnah te a dawt uh.
11He replied, “The mystery of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to those on the outside everything is expressed in parables,
11Te dongah amih te, “ Pathen ram kah olhuep te nangmih m'paek coeng. Tedae poengben kah rhoek ham tah soeprhep boeih te nuettahnah la a om pah .
12so that, ‘they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding; otherwise they might turn and be forgiven.’”
12Te daengah ni a hmuh tah a hmuh uh sui dae a hmat uh pawt eh, a yaak tah a yaak uh sui dae a hmuhming uh pawt eh. Ha mael uh vetih amih te vik hlah ve,” a ti nah.
13Then Jesus said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? Then how will you understand any of the parables?
13Te phoeiah amih te, “ Hekah nuettahnah he na ming uh pawt atah nuettahnah boeih te metlam na ming uh eh?
14The farmer sows the word.
14Aka tuh loh olthangthen ni a tuh .
15Some are like the seeds along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them.
15He tah longpuei kaep kah a soem ol te ni. A yaak vaengah Satan tlek cet tih amih khuiah a soem ol a loh pah .
16Some are like the seeds sown on rocky ground. They hear the word and at once receive it with joy.
16Te phoeiah he rhoek tah lungrhong sokah a haeh rhoek ni. Te rhoek loh ol te a yaak uh vaengah omngaihnah neh tlek a doe .
17But they themselves have no root, and they remain for only a season. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away.
17Tedae a khuiah a yung om uh pawt tih kolkalh bueng om uh. Te phoeiah olka kongah phacipphabaem neh hnaemtaeknah a om atah voeng a khah uh .
18Others are like the seeds sown among the thorns. They hear the word,
18A tloe rhoek hling lakli ah a tuh khaw om. Te rhoek khaw ol aka ya rhoek ni .
19but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the desire for other things come in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.
19Tedae diklai kah mawntangnah, khuehtawn kah hmilhmaknah neh a tloe boeih ham hoehhamnah ha pawk vaengah ol te a thing tih a tlongtlai la poeh .
20Still others are like the seeds sown on good soil. They hear the word, receive it, and produce a crop—thirtyfold, sixtyfold, or a hundredfold.”
20Tedae lai then ah tuh la aka om rhoek tah ol te a yaak uh vaengah a doe uh tih a ngen tah thumkip, a ngen tah sawmrhuk, a ngen tah yakhat la thaihtak,” a ti nah.
21Jesus also said to them, “Does anyone bring in a lamp to put it under a basket or under a bed? Doesn’t he set it on a stand?
21Te phoeiah amih te, “ Hmaiim te voh hmui neh thingkong hmuiah khueh ham a hang khuen? Hmaitung soah a khueh ham moenih a?
22For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be brought to light.
22Te dongah a huephael akhaw a phoe mueh la a om moenih. A huep te a thoeng mueh moenih. Te van daengah ni mingpha la a om eh .
23If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”
23Yaak nah hna aka khueh long te tah ya saeh,” a ti nah.
24He went on to say, “Pay attention to what you hear. With the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and even more will be added to you.
24Te phoeiah amih te, “ Na yaak uh te poek uh, na nueh nah cungnueh nen te nangmih n'nueh van vetih nangmih taengah han thap ni .
25For whoever has will be given more. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”
25Aka khueh te tah a paek thil vetih aka khueh pawt te a khueh duen te anih taeng lamloh a lat pah ni,” a ti nah.
26Jesus also said, “The kingdom of God is like a man who scatters seed on the ground.
26Te phoeiah, “ Pathen ram tah diklai dongah cangtii aka haeh hlang bangla om tangloeng .
27Night and day he sleeps and wakes, and the seed sprouts and grows, though he knows not how.
27Tedae khoyin khothaih ip vaeng thoo vaeng cakhaw cangtii daih tih a rhoeng te a ming moenih .
28All by itself the earth produces a crop—first the stalk, then the head, then grain that ripens within.
28Diklai amah loh a thaihtak sak tih lamhma la cangkung, te phoeiah cangvuei, cangvuei khuiah cangyen a bae sak .
29And as soon as the grain is ripe, he swings the sickle, because the harvest has come.”
29Tedae cangvuei loh hmin tih cangah a pha atah vin tlek a pom,” a ti nah.
30Then He asked, “To what can we compare the kingdom of God? With what parable shall we present it?
30Te phoeiah Jesuh loh, “ Pathen ram he metlam n'thuidoek vetih mebang nuettahnah nen n'nueh lah ve?
31It is like a mustard seed, which is the smallest of all seeds sown upon the earth.
31Pathen ramtah mukang mu bangla om. Te te diklai dongah a haeh vaengah tah diklai hmankah a tii boeih lakah a yit koek la om .
32But after it is planted, it grows to be the largest of all garden plants and puts forth great branches, so that the birds of the air nest in its shade.”
32A haeh phoeiah rhoeng tih toian boeih lakah a tanglue la coeng, a hlaeng khaw a len la cawn. Te dongah vaan kah vaa khaw a hlipkhup ah bu a tuk thai,” a ti nah.
33With many such parables Jesus spoke the word to them, to the extent that they could understand.
33A yaak thai la hebang nuettahnah neh amih taengah ol muep a thui pah.
34He did not tell them anything without using a parable. But privately He explained everything to His own disciples.
34Nuettahnah pawt atah amih taengah a thui moenih. Tedae a hnukbang rhoek ham bueng ni boeih a thuicaih pah.
35When that evening came, He said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side.”
35Te khohnin hlaem a pha vaengah amih te, “ Rhlavangan la lan uh sih,” a ti nah.
36After they had dismissed the crowd, they took Jesus with them, since He was already in the boat. And there were other boats with Him.
36Te phoeiah hlangping te a hlah uh tih lawng khuiah aka om Jesuh te pahoi a khuen uh. Lawng tloe rhoek khaw Jesuh taengah om uh.
37Soon a violent windstorm came up, and the waves were breaking over the boat, so that it was being swamped.
37Te vaengah khohli aka tlo hlipuei te hli. Te dongah tuiphu loh lawng te a boh dongah lawng dalh buek.
38But Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on the cushion. So they woke Him and said, “Teacher, don’t You care that we are perishing?”
38Tedae Jesuh tah a maicaem ah om tih luhoe dongah ip. Te vaengah amah te a thoh uh tih, “Saya, m'poci coeng he, na ngaihuet moenih a?” a ti na uh.
39Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the sea. “Silence!” He commanded. “Be still!” And the wind died down, and it was perfectly calm.
39A haeng vaengah khohli te a ho tih tuili te, “ Paa lamtah duem laeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah khohli te paa tih suepduem la boeih om.
40“Why are you so afraid?” He asked. “Do you still have no faith?”
40Te phoeiah amih te, “ Balae tih rhalyawp la na om uh? Tangnah na khueh uh hlana? ” a ti nah.
41Overwhelmed with fear, they asked one another, “Who is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”
41Tedae a rhih uh tih a rhihnah uh khaw khosava. Te dongah khat neh khat, “Unim he, tuili neh khohli long pataeng boe a ngai pah he?” a ti uh.
