Mathai 13
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Berean Standard Bible
1To na niah Jesu loe im hoiah caeh moe, tuipui taengah anghnut.
1That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the sea.
2To naah paroeai kaminawk anih khaeah amkhueng o pongah, anih loe palong thungah caeh moe, anghnut; kaminawk loe tui taengah angdoet o.
2Such large crowds gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat down, while all the people stood on the shore.
3Anih mah to kaminawk khaeah patahhaih hoiah pop parai lok to a thuih pae, Khenah, aanmu haeh kami maeto loe aanmu haeh hanah caeh;
3And He told them many things in parables, saying, “A farmer went out to sow his seed.
4aanmu a haeh naah, thoemto aanmunawk loe loklam ah krak, tavaanawk angzoh o moe, aanmu to akhuih o boih:
4And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.
5thoemto aanmunawk loe long tampa tlungcaret nuiah krak: long tampa pongah amprawk o phrat:
5Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.
6toe ni tacawt naah loe ni kabae mah aankungnawk to dawk; tangzun om ai pongah, azaem o roep.
6But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.
7Thoemto aanmu loe soekhringnawk thungah krak; soekhringnawk loe qoeng o tahang moe, aankungnawk to tahlip hmoek:
7Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings.
8thoemto aanmunawk loe long kahoih thungah krak moe, athaih athaih o, thoemto loe alet cumvai, quitaruk hoi quithumto ah athaih o.
8Still other seed fell on good soil and produced a crop—a hundredfold, sixtyfold, or thirtyfold.
9Naa tawn kami loe, thaih na soe, tiah a naa.
9He who has ears, let him hear.”
10A hnukbang kaminawk anih khaeah angzoh o moe, Tipongah rangpui kaminawk khaeah patahhaih hoiah lok na thuih loe? tiah a dueng o.
10Then the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Why do You speak to the people in parables?”
11Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Siangpahrang mah uk ih van prae loktamqu to panoek thaihaih to nangcae khaeah paek boeh, toe nihcae khaeah loe paek ai.
11He replied, “The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them.
12Mi kawbaktih doeh katawn kami loe thap pae aep ueloe, pop parai ah tawn tih: toe mi kawbaktih doeh katawn ai kami loe a tawnh ih hmuen to doeh la pae kik tih.
12Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.
13To pongah ni nihcae khaeah loe patahhaih lok hoiah ka thuih pae: nihcae loe khet o, toe hnu o ai; tahngaih o, toe thaih o ai; thaih kophaih tawn o ai.
13This is why I speak to them in parables: ‘Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand.’
14Tahmaa Isaiah mah, Na tahngai o tih, toe na thaih o kop mak ai; na khen o tih, toe na panoek o thai mak ai:
14In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled: ‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
15hae kaminawk loe palung maeng o, naa hoiah thaih o thai ai, mik pasim o ving; to tih ai nahaeloe nihcae mah mik hoiah hnu o tih; naa hoiah thaih o ueloe, palung hoiah panoek o tih; hnukbang ah angqoi o ueloe, nihcae to ngan ka tuisak moeng tih, tiah thuih ih lok loe nihcae ah akoep boeh:
15For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’
16toe kahnu thaih mik hoi thaikophaih naa loe, tahamhoih.
16But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.
17Loktang kang thuih o, paroeai tahmaanawk hoi katoeng kaminawk mah na hnuk o ih hmuennawk hae hnuk han a koeh o, toe hnu o thai ai; na thaih o ih hmuennawk doeh thaih han a koeh o, toe thaih o thai ai.
17For truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.
18To pongah aanmu haeh kami patahhaih lok to tahngai oh:
18Consider, then, the parable of the sower:
19kami maeto loe Sithaw prae lok to thaih naah, thai kop ai, to pacoengah taqawk angzoh moe, anih palung thungah haeh ih lok to lak pae ving. Hae loe loklam ah kakrah aanmu hoiah anghmong.
19When anyone hears the message of the kingdom but does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path.
20Tlungcaret thungah kakrah aanmu loe lok to thaih naah, oephaih hoiah talawk roep kami hoiah anghmong;
20The seed sown on rocky ground is the one who hears the word and at once receives it with joy.
21toe anih loe tangzun om ai pongah, nawnetta thungah ni oh: Sithaw lok pongah raihaih hoi pacaekthlaekhaih oh naah, anih loe amtim roep.
21But since he has no root, he remains for only a season. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, he quickly falls away.
22Soekhring thungah kakrah aanmu loe lok to thaih, toe anih loe long hae palung pongah, alinghaih hoi angraenghaih mah lok to khuk khoep, to pongah athaih athai ai kami hoiah anghmong.
22The seed sown among the thorns is the one who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.
23Long kahoih thungah kakrah aanmu loe, lok to thaih naah, panoek thaihaih to a tawnh; anih loe athaih to athaih moe, thoemto loe alet cumvaito, thoemto loe quitarukto, thoemto loe quithumto ah angpung, tiah a naa.
23But the seed sown on good soil is the one who hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and produces a crop—a hundredfold, sixtyfold, or thirtyfold.”
24Anih mah kalah patahhaih lok nihcae khaeah thuih pae let: Siangpahrang mah uk ih van prae loe angmah ih lawk thungah canti haeh kami maeto hoiah anghmong:
24Jesus put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.
25toe kaminawk iih o naah, a misa to angzoh, cangti thungah phroh mu to haeh moe, a caehtaak ving.
25But while everyone was asleep, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and slipped away.
26Cang loe amprawk moe, aquih to tacawt, to naah phroh doeh amprawk tahang toeng.
26When the wheat sprouted and bore grain, then the weeds also appeared.
27To pongah lawk tawnkung ih tamnanawk to anih khaeah angzoh o moe, Angraeng, kahoih cangti na ai maw lawk thungah na haeh? Naa hoiah maw prohnawk hae amprawk loe? tiah a naa o.
27The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’
28To naah anih mah nihcae khaeah, Misa mah ni hae tiah sak, tiah a naa. Tamnanawk mah anih khaeah, to tih nahaeloe ka caeh o moe, ka phong o han maw? tiah naa o.
28‘An enemy did this,’ he replied. So the servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’
29Toe anih mah, To tiah na ai ni; phroh to na phongh o nahaeloe, cang doeh na phongh o hmaek tih.
29‘No,’ he said, ‘if you pull the weeds now, you might uproot the wheat with them.
30Cang aat ai karoek to nawnto amprawk hoi rae nasoe: cang aahhaih atue phak naah cangaat kaminawk khaeah, hmai hoi qoeng hanah phrohnawk to akhui oh loe, taoeng o hmaloe ah: toe cang loe kai mah ih tapup thungah thaeng oh, tiah ka naa han, tiah a thuih pae.
30Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat into my barn.’”
31Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Siangpahrang mah uk ih van prae loe kami maeto mah lak moe, angmah ih lawk ah haeh ih antam mu maeto hoiah anghmong, tiah kalah patahhaih lok a thuih pae let bae:
31He put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a man planted in his field.
32to antam mu loe aanmunawk boih thungah kathoeng koek ah oh: toe amprawt naah loe phronawk boih pong kalen koek ah oh, thingkung ah angcoeng pongah, van ih tavaanawk to angzoh o moe, tahangnawk pongah acuk o, tiah a naa.
32Although it is the smallest of all seeds, yet it grows into the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches.”
33Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Siangpahrang mah uk ih van prae loe nongpata maeto mah taeh to lak moe, tui noekhaih boengloeng thumto kaom takaw thungah taeh to a phuih naah, taeh mah anguengsak ih takaw hoiah anghmong, tiah kalah patahhaih lok to a thuih pae let.
33He told them still another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and mixed into three measures of flour, until all of it was leavened.”
34Hae hmuennawk loe Jesu mah pop parai kaminawk khaeah thuih ih patahhaih lok ah oh; patahhaih lok patoh ai ah loe nihcae khaeah tidoeh thui pae ai:
34Jesus spoke all these things to the crowds in parables. He did not tell them anything without using a parable.
35to pongah tahmaa mah, Patahhaih hoiah lok ka thuih moe, long oh tangsuek na hoi tamquta ah suek ih hmuennawk to ka thuih han, tiah thuih ih lok akoep han ih ni to tiah oh.
35So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: “I will open My mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden since the foundation of the world.”
36To pacoengah Jesu mah kaminawk to tacawtsak moe, im thungah a caeh: to naah a hnukbang kaminawk anih khaeah angzoh o moe, Lawk thung ih phroh patahhaih lok to kamtuengah na thui ah, tiah a naa o.
36Then Jesus dismissed the crowds and went into the house. His disciples came to Him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.”
37Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Kahoih cangti haeh kami loe, kami Capa ni;
37He replied, “The One who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.
38lawk loe long hae ni; kahoih cangti loe Siangpahrang ukhaih prae thungah kaom caanawk thuih koehhaih ih ni; toe phrohnawk loe kasae kaminawk ih caa thuih koehhaih ah oh;
38The field is the world, and the good seed represents the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,
39phroh haeh kami ih misa loe taqawk ni; cang aahhaih loe long boenghaih ah oh, cangaat kaminawk loe van kaminawk ni.
39and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.
40Phrohnawk to lak o moe, hmai thungah vah o baktih toengah, hae long tue boeng naah om tih.
40As the weeds are collected and burned in the fire, so will it be at the end of the age.
41Kami Capa mah angmah ih van kaminawk to patoeh tih, zaehaih sah kami hoi kahoih ai hmuen sah kaminawk boih to angmah ih prae thung hoiah nihcae mah nawnto pakhueng o ueloe,
41The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will weed out of His kingdom every cause of sin and all who practice lawlessness.
42paroeai kabae hmai kamngaeh thungah va o tih: to ah qahhaih hoi hakaekhaih to om tih.
42And they will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
43To pacoengah katoeng kaminawk loe angmacae Ampa mah uk ih prae ah ni baktiah aang o tih. Thaihaih naa tawn kami loe, thaih nasoe, tiah a naa.
43Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.
44Van prae loe lawk thungah hawk ih hmuen hoiah anghmong; to hmuen to kami maeto mah hnuk naah, a hawk hmoek, anghoehaih hoiah a caeh moe, a tawnh ih hmuennawk to zawh boih pacoengah, to lawk hmuen to a qanh.
44The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and in his joy he went and sold all he had and bought that field.
45To pacoengah, van prae loe kahoih pale thlung pakrong hmuenmae zaw kami hoiah anghmong:
45Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls.
46anih mah atho kaom pale thlung to hnuk naah caeh moe, a tawnh ih hmuennawk to zawh boih pacoengah, to thlung to a qanh.
46When he found one very precious pearl, he went away and sold all he had and bought it.
47To pacoengah, van prae loe tanga congca kaman, tuipui thungah haeng ih palok hoiah anghmong:
47Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea and caught all kinds of fish.
48palok to tanga hoi koi mong naah, nihcae mah tuicing bangah zaeh o, anghnut o moe, kahoih tanga to daengkraem thungah pacaeng o, kahoih ai tanga loe a vah o ving.
48When it was full, the men pulled it ashore. Then they sat down and sorted the good fish into containers, but threw the bad away.
49Long boeng naah loe to tiah om tih: van kaminawk to angzo o ueloe, katoeng kaminawk thung hoiah kazae kaminawk to pathlaeng o tih,
49So will it be at the end of the age: The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous,
50nihcae to paroeai kabae hmai kamngaeh thungah va o tih: to ah loe qahhaih hoi hakaekhaih to om tih, tiah a naa.
50and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
51Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Hae hmuennawk hae na thaih o kop boih maw? tiah a naa. Nihcae mah, Ue, Angraeng, tiah a naa o.
51Have you understood all these things?” “Yes,” they answered.
52Anih mah nihcae khaeah, To pongah siangpahrang mah uk ih van prae kawng patuk ca tarik kaminawk boih loe, a tawnh ih hmuen kangtha hoi kangquem tasa bangah kasin, im tawn kami maeto hoiah anghmong, tiah a naa.
52Then He told them, “For this reason, every scribe who has been discipled in the kingdom of heaven is like a homeowner who brings out of his storeroom new treasures as well as old.”
53Jesu mah hae patahhaih lok thuih pacoengah, to ahmuen to a caehtaak.
53When Jesus had finished these parables, He withdrew from that place.
54Angmah ih vangpui ah a caeh moe, sineko ah kaminawk to patuk, to naah nihcae mah dawnrai o moe, Hae kami loe naa hoi ih maw hae baktih palunghahaih hoi dawnrai toksakthaihaihnawk hae a tawnh? tiah thuih o.
54Coming to His hometown, He taught the people in their synagogue, and they were astonished. “Where did this man get such wisdom and miraculous powers?” they asked.
55Anih loe thing aat kami ih capa na ai maw? Anih ih amno loe Meri na ai maw? Anih ih nawkamyanawk loe Jakob, Jose, Simon hoi Judah na ai maw?
55“Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t His mother’s name Mary, and aren’t His brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas?
56Anih ih tanuhnawk doeh aicae hoi nawnto oh o na ai maw? Hae kami loe naa hoi ih maw hae baktih hmuennawk hae a tawnh? tiah a thuih o.
56Aren’t all His sisters with us as well? Where then did this man get all these things?”
57Kaminawk loe anih nuiah palung hoih o ai. Toe Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Tahmaa loe angmah im hoi angmah ih vangpui tasa bangah ni, pakoehhaih hoiah oh, tiah a naa.
57And they took offense at Him. But Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”
58Nihcae loe tanghaih tawn o ai pongah, to ahmuen ah dawnrai hmuen to sah pae mangh ai.
58And He did not do many miracles there, because of their unbelief.
