World English Bible
1Nito naah, anih loe tempul thungah kaminawk to patuk, tamthanglok hoih taphong naah, kalen koek qaima, ca tarik kaminawk loe kacoehtanawk hoi nawnto anih khaeah angzoh o,
1On one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, the priests and scribes came to him with the elders.
2Anih khaeah naa ih sakthaihaih akaa hoiah maw hae hmuennawk hae na sak, to tih ai boeh loe hae sakthaihaih akaa hae mi mah maw ang paek? Na thui ah, tiah a naa o.
2They asked him, “Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?”
3Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Lok maeto kang dueng o toeng han; na pathim oh:
3He answered them, “I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
4Johan ih tuinuemhaih loe van bang hoi ih maw, to tih ai boeh loe kaminawk khae hoi ih? tiah a naa.
4the baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?”
5To naah angmacae hoi angmacae to lok angdueng o, Van bang hoi ih, tiah a thuih o nahaeloe, tikhoe anih to na tang o ai loe? tiah na naa tih;
5They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’
6toe kaminawk khae hoi ih ni, tiah a thuih o nahaeloe, kaminawk boih mah Johan loe tahmaa maeto ah poek o pongah, thlung hoi na va o tih, tiah a thuih o.
6But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
7To pongah nihcae mah, naa bang hoi ih maw, tito ka panoek o ai, tiah a naa o.
7They answered that they didn’t know where it was from.
8Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Kai doeh mi ih akaa hoiah maw hae hmuennawk hae ka sak, tito kang thui o toeng mak ai, tiah a naa.
8Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
9To pacoengah anih mah kaminawk khaeah hae patahhaih lok hae thuih pae; Kami maeto loe misur takha maeto tawnh, takha to toksah kami khaeah tlaisak pacoengah, prae kangthla ah kholong a caeh.
9He began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard and rented it out to some farmers, and went into another country for a long time.
10Misurthaih pakhrik tue phak naah loe, misurthaih pakhrik hanah takha toep kaminawk khaeah a tamna maeto patoeh: toe takha thung toksah kaminawk mah anih to boh o moe, bangkrai ah patoeh o ving.
10At 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.
11To pongah anih mah kalah tamna to patoeh let: anih doeh boh o moe, pacaekthlaek o, azat thok ah bangkrai ah amlaem o sak.
11He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
12Anih mah thumto haih tamna to patoeh let: anih to doeh nganbawh kana paek o moe, tasa bangah vah o ving.
12He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him and threw him out.
13To naah takha tawnkung loe, Kawbangmaw ka sak han? Palung ih ka capa to ka patoeh halat han boeh: nihcae mah anih to hnuk o naah saiqat o khoe doeh om tih, tiah a poek.
13The lord of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that seeing him, they will respect him.’
14Toe takha thungah toksah kaminawk mah qawktoep kami ah kaom anih to hnuk o naah, angzo oh, anih to hum si loe, qawk to aimacae hanah la o si, tiah maeto hoi maeto a thuih o.
14“But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.’
15To pongah anih to takha tasa bangah vah o moe, anih to a hum o. To tih nahaeloe takha tawnkung mah nihcae to kawbangmaw sah tih? tiah a naa.
15Then they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16Nihcae mah, Takha tawnkung to angzo tih, toksah kaminawk to hum ueloe, takha to kalah kaminawk khaeah paek tih, tiah a naa o. Kaminawk mah lok to thaih o naah, to tiah om hmah nasoe, tiah thuih o.
16He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard that, they said, “May that never be!”
17Anih mah nihcae to khet moe, Imsah kaminawk mah pahnawt o ih thlung loe, im takii ih kacak koek thlung ah oh boeh, tiah tarik ih lok loe tih thuih koehaih ih maw?
17But he looked at them and said, “Then what is this that is written, ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the chief cornerstone’?
18Mi kawbaktih doeh to thlung nuiah amtimh kami loe angkhaek tih; thlung mah taeh ih kaminawk doeh adip pueng tih, tiah a naa.
18Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but it will crush whomever it falls on to dust.”
19Hae patahhaih lok loe nihcae thuih koehhaih ih ni, tito nihcae mah panoek o pongah, kalen koek qaima hoi ca tarik kaminawk loe anih naeh thaihaih loklam to pakrong o, toe to ah kaom kaminawk to zit o.
19The 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.
20Anih mah thuih pazae ih lok to naeh moe, anih to prae ukkung khaeah paek hanah, anih to patoem o pongah, kami kahoih baktiah angsah tamquta hoi minawk khen kaminawk to anih khaeah patoeh o.
20They 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.
21Anih patoem kaminawk mah anih khaeah, Patukkung, nang loe kamsoem lok ni na thuih, kamsoem hmuen to na patuk, kami mikhmai doeh na khen ai, Sithaw ih loklam ni loktangta ah na patuk, tito ka panoek o:
21They asked him, “Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.
22Caesar khaeah tamut paek hae amsoem maw, amsoem ai? tiah a dueng o.
22Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
23Toe nihcae mah alinghaih to anih mah panoek pongah nihcae khaeah, Tikhoe nang tanoek o loe?
23But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them, “Why do you test me?
24Phoisa maeto na patuek o noek ah. Mi ih krang hoi ahmin maw tarik o? tiah a naa. Nihcae mah, Caesar ih, tiah pathim pae o.
24Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” They answered, “Caesar’s.”
25Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Caesar ih hmuennawk to Caesar khaeah paek oh loe, Sithaw ih hmuennawk to Sithaw khaeah paek oh, tiah a naa.
25He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
26Anih mah kaminawk hma ah thuih pazae ih lok to nihcae mah naeh o thai ai: nihcae mah dueng ih lok to anih mah pathim pae thaih pongah, dawnrai o moe, anghngai o duem.
26They weren’t able to trap him in his words before the people. They marveled at his answer and were silent.
27Angthawk lethaih tang ai thoemto Sadusinawk anih khaeah angzoh o moe, anih khaeah,
27Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
28Patukkung, Mosi mah kaicae khaeah, Kami maeto loe zu lak, toe caa sah ai ah dueh ving nahaeloe, amnawk mah anih ih zu to la ueloe, amya hanah caa sah pae tih, tiah tarik ih oh.
28They 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.
29Nawkamya sarihto kaom kami oh o: kacoeh koek loe zu lak, toe caa sah ai ah duek ving.
29There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
30Hnetto haih amnawk mah nongpata to zu ah lak, toe caa sah ai ah duek taak ving.
30The second took her as wife, and he died childless.
31Thumto haih amnawk mah nongpata to lak; to tiah nawkamya sarihto mah zu o haih, toe caa sah ai ah duek o taak boih.
31The third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
32Hnukkhuem ah loe to nongpata doeh duek toeng.
32Afterward the woman also died.
33To tih nahaeloe angthawk lethaih niah to nongpata loe mi ih zu ah maw om tih? Nawkamya sarihto mah to nongpata to zu ah lak o boih, tiah a dueng o.
33Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife.”
34Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Vaihi dung ih kaminawk loe zu lak o moe, imthong to krak o:
34Jesus said to them, “The children of this age marry and are given in marriage.
35toe to adung ah kathum han koiah poek ih kaminawk duekhaih thung hoiah angthawk o let naah loe, zu lakhaih hoi imthong krakhaih to om mak ai boeh:
35But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage.
36nihcae loe dueh o thai mak ai boeh: van kaminawk baktiah ni oh o boeh; angthawk lethaih caa ah oh o pongah, Sithaw caa ah ni oh o boeh.
36For they can’t die any more, for they are like the angels and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
37Toe Mosi mah Angraeng loe Abraham ih Sithaw, Isak ih Sithaw, Jakob ih Sithaw ah oh, tiah kawk naah, hmai kangqong thing kabuk thung hoiah, kadueh kaminawk angthawk o boeh, tito a hnuksak.
37But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord ‘The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
38Anih loe kadueh kaminawk ih Sithaw na ai ni, kahing kaminawk ih Sithaw ah ni oh: kaminawk loe anih ah hing o boih, tiah a naa.
38Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him.”
39To naah thoemto ca tarik kaminawk mah, Patukkung, na thuih ih lok loe hoih, tiah a naa o.
39Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you speak well.”
40To pacoengah loe nihcae mah anih khaeah lokdueng o ai boeh.
40They didn’t dare to ask him any more questions.
41Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Kawbangmaw nihcae mah, Kri loe David ih capa ni, tiah thuih o?
41He said to them, “Why do they say that the Christ is David’s son?
42David mah loe Saam Cabu thungah, Angraeng mah, ka Angraeng khaeah,
42David himself says in the book of Psalms, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand,
43na misanawk na khok koenghaih ah ka sah ai karoek to, ka bantang bangah anghnu ah, tiah thuih.
43until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’
44David mah anih to Angraeng, tiah kawk, to tih nahaeloe kawbangmaw Anih loe David ih Capa ah om thai tih? tiah a naa.
44“David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?”
45Kami boih mah a lok tahngaih o nathuem ah, Jesu mah a hnukbang kaminawk khaeah,
45In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
46ca tarik kaminawk khae hoi acoe oh, nihcae loe kahni sawk to angkhuk o moe, amkaeh han koeh o, hmuenmae zawhhaih ahmuen ah saiqat paekhaih to a koeh o, Sineko ah kasang koek anghnuthaih hoi buhcaakhaih ahmuen to a koeh o;
46“Beware of those 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;
47lamhmainawk ih im to muk pae o moe, minawk mikhnuk ah kasawk parai ah lawkthuih o: to baktih kaminawk loe kalen kue lokcaekhaih to hnu o tih.
47who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
