Mathai 11
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
World English Bible
1Jesu mah a hnukbang hatlai hnettonawk khaeah lokthuih pacoengah, kami to patuk moe, lokthuih hanah, to ahmuen hoiah tacawt moe, nihcae ih vangpuinawk bangah caeh.
1When Jesus had finished directing his twelve disciples, he departed from there to teach and preach in their cities.
2Jesu toksakhaihnawk Johan mah thongim thung hoiah thaih naah, a hnukbang kami hnetto patoeh moe,
2Now when John heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples
3Anih khaeah, Nang loe kang zing o ih angzo han koi kami to boeh maw, to tih ai boeh loe kalah kami to ka zing o han vop maw? tiah a duengsak.
3and said to him, “Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?”
4Jesu mah nihnik khaeah, Amlaem hoi let ah loe, na thaih moe, na hnuk hoi ih hmuen to Johan khaeah thui pae hoih, tiah a naa:
4Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:
5mikmaengnawk loe mik amtueng o boeh, khokkhaemnawk loe caeh o thai boeh, ngansae man kaminawk loe ngantui o boeh, naa pang kaminawk loe lok thaih o boeh, kadueh kaminawk loe angthawk o boeh moe, amtang kaminawk mah doeh taphong ih kahoih tamthanglok to thaih o boeh.
5the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
6Kai pongah palungboeng ai kami loe tahamhoih, tiah pathim pae.
6Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”
7Nihnik caeh hoi pacoengah, Jesu mah rangpuinawk khaeah, Tih khet han ih maw praezaek ah na caeh o? Takhi mah hmuh naah anghuen phrokung khet han ih maw? tiah Johan kawng pongah lok a thuih pae.
7As these went their way, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
8To tih ai boeh loe tih hnuk han ih maw na caeh o? Kahoih khukbuen kanaem hoi amthoep kami khet han ih maw? Khenah, kahoih khukbuen kanaem angkhuk kami loe, siangpahrang im ah ni oh.
8But what did you go out to see? A man in soft clothing? Behold, those who wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses.
9Toe nangcae loe tih khet han ih maw na caeh o? Tahmaa khet han ih maw? Ue, tahmaa maeto pongah len kue, tiah kang thuih o.
9But why did you go out? To see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
10Khenah, Nangcae hmaa ah tamthang sin kami to ka patoeh han, anih mah na hma ah loklam to paroep tih, tiah anih kawng tarik ih oh.
10For this is he, of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
11Loktang kang thuih o, Nongpata mah tapen ih kami thungah tuinuemkung Johan pong kalen kue kami om vai ai vop: toe van prae ah kathoeng koek loe Johan pongah len kue.
11Most certainly I tell you, among those who are born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptizer; yet he who is least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.
12Van prae loe tuinuemkung Johan oh nathuem hoi kamtong vaihi khoek to paroeai raihaih tongh, thacak kaminawk mah tha patohhaih hoiah a lomh o.
12From the days of John the Baptizer until now, the Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.
13Tahmaanawk ih lok hoi kaalok boih loe Johan karoek to ni taphong o.
13For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
14Tapom han na koeh o nahaeloe, anih loe angzo han koi Elijah boeh ni.
14If you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come.
15Thaihaih naa tawn kami loe thaih nasoe.
15He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
16Hae dung ih kaminawk loe tih hoiah maw ka patah han? Hmuen zawhhaih ahmuen ah anghnu nawktanawk mah, angmacae ampuinawk khaeah,
16“But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their companions
17nangcae han tamoi kang uengh o thuih, toe na hnaw o ai; qahhaih lok hoiah kang oi o haih cadoeh, palung na sae o ai, tiah thuih ih lok hoiah ni nang hmong o.
17and say, ‘We played the flute for you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned for you, and you didn’t lament.’
18Johan loe angzoh moe, nae ai, caa ai ah oh, to naah Anih loe taqawk tawnh, tiah a naa o.
18For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’
19Kami Capa angzoh moe, a caak a naek naah, nihcae mah, khenah, caak amoeh kami, misurtui amoeh kami, tamut cong kaminawk hoi kazae kaminawk ih ampui, tiah a naa o. Toe palunghahaih loe a caanawk mah amtuengsak.
19The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ But wisdom is justified by her children.”
20To pacoengah paroeai dawnrai hmuennawk to a sak, toe vangpuinawk loe dawnpakhuemhaih tawn o ai pongah a zoeh.
20Then he began to denounce the cities in which most of his mighty works had been done, because they didn’t repent.
21Korazin, khosak na bing! Bethsaida, khosak na bing! Nanghnik khaeah sak ih dawnrai hmuen to, Tura hoi Sidon vangpui ah ka sak nahaeloe, canghnii ah ni maiphu pongah anghnu o ueloe, buri angkhuk hoiah dawnpakhuem o tih boeh.
21“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
22Toe kang thuih o, lokcaekhaih niah nanghnik loe Tura hoi Sidon mah tong ih hmuen pongah nung kue tih.
22But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.
23To pacoengah nang, Kapernuam, van khoek to amkoeh tahang, hell ah ni na krah tathuk tih: nang khaeah sak ih dawnrai hmuennawk to Sodom ah sak soe nahaeloe, vaihni ni khoek to om vop tih.
23You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, you will go down to Hades. For if the mighty works had been done in Sodom which were done in you, it would have remained until today.
24Toe kang thuih o, lokcaekhaih niah nang loe Sodom mah tong ih hmuen pongah nung kue tih, tiah a naa.
24But I tell you that it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom on the day of judgment, than for you.”
25Jesu mah, Aw Pa, long hoi van Angraeng, hae hmuennawk hae palungha kaminawk, kathoem kaminawk khae hoi na hawk moe, nawktanawk khaeah nam tuengsak pongah, nang kang pakoeh, tiah thuih.
25At that time, Jesus answered, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to infants.
26Ue, Pa, hae loe na mik hnukah kahoih hmuen ah oh.
26Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.
27Pa mah hmuennawk boih kai khaeah paek boeh: Pa ai ah loe mi mah doeh Capa to panoek ai; Capa hoi Capa mah amtueng thuih han ih kami mah khue ai ah loe, mi mah doeh Ampa to panoek ai.
27All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows the Son, except the Father; neither does anyone know the Father, except the Son and he to whom the Son desires to reveal him.
28Nangcae hmuenzit phaw kami hoi patangkhang kaminawk, kai khaeah angzo oh, anghakhaih kang paek o han.
28“Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.
29Kai ih hnam hae phaw oh, kai khaeah amtuk oh; kai loe poeknaem moe, tuinom ka tawnh; to pongah palung monghaih na hnu o tih.
29Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.
30Kai ih hnam loe phawh han zoi, ka phawh ih hmuen doeh anghoep, tiah a naa.
30For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
