Mathai 7
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Berean Standard Bible
1Nangmah to lokcaek han ai ah, minawk to lokcaek hmah.
1“Do not judge, or you will be judged.
2Minawk lok na caek baktih toengah, lokcaekhaih na tong tih: minawk na tahhaih hmuen hoiah na tah let tih.
2For with the same judgment you pronounce, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
3Tipongah na mik thung ih anuen to poek ai ah, nawkamya mik ah kaom tetta anuen to na khet loe?
3Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but fail to notice the beam in your own eye?
4Tikhoe na mik thung ih anuen to khen ai ah, nawkamya hanah, Na mik thung ih anuen to kang lak pae han, tiah na naa loe?
4How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while there is still a beam in your own eye?
5Nang, aling thaih kami! Na mik pong ih anuen to la hmaloe ah; to tiah ni na mik to amtueng ueloe, nawkamya mik thung ih anuen to na la pae thai tih.
5You hypocrite! First take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
6Ciimcai hmuen to uinawk han paek hmah, pale thlung doeh oknawk hma ah suem o hmah, na suek o nahaeloe, khok hoiah ni cawh o tih, nangmah khaeah angqoi ueloe, na kaek tih.
6Do not give dogs what is holy; do not throw your pearls before swine. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces.
7Hnih ah, na paek tih; pakrong ah, na hnu tih; takhuek ah, na paong pae tih:
7Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.
8hni kami loe hak; pakrong kami loe hnuk; takhuek kami hanah paong pae tih.
8For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
9Na caa mah takaw hni nahaeloe, thlung paek kami nangcae thungah om tih maw?
9Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?
10Tanga hni nahaeloe, pahui na paek o tih maw?
10Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake?
11Nangcae, kasae kaminawk mah mataeng doeh na caanawk hanah kahoih hmuen paek han na panoek o nahaeloe, van ah kaom nangcae ampa mah cae loe nazetto maw hni kami hanah paek tih?
11So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!
12Minawk mah na nuiah hmuen kahoih saksak han na koeh o ih baktih toengah, nihcae nuiah kahoih hmuen to sah toeng ah: hae loe kaalok hoi tahmaanawk ih lok ah oh.
12In everything, then, do to others as you would have them do to you. For this is the essence of the Law and the Prophets.
13Khongkha tamcaek thungah akun oh: kakawk khongkha hoi kalen loklam loe, anghmathaih bang zaehoikung ah oh: paroeai kaminawk loe to bangah caeh o:
13Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.
14tamcaek khongkha hoi tamcaek loklam loe hinghaih bang zaehoikung ah oh, kami tamsi loe to ahmuen bangah caeh o.
14But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it.
15Kamro tahmaanawk khae hoiah acoe oh, nihcae loe tuu hin to a nuiah angkhuk o moe, a thungah loe alinghaih hoiah kakoi tasui ah oh o.
15Beware of false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
16Angmacae ih athaih hoiah nihcae to na panoek o tih. Mi mah maw soekhringkung hoiah misurthaih pakhrik moe, soekhring takha thung hoiah misurthaih pakhrik vaih?
16By their fruit you will recognize them. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?
17Kahoih thingkung mah kahoih thingthai to tacawtsak; toe kasae thingkung mah loe kasae thingthai to tacawtsak.
17Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.
18Kahoih thingkung hoiah kasae thingthai tacawt thai ai, kasae thingkung mah kahoih thingthai athaisak thai mak ai.
18A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit.
19Kahoih thingthai athai ai thingkung loe pakhruk boih moe, hmai thungah vah o.
19Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
20To tiah angmacae ih athaih hoiah nihcae to na panoek o tih.
20So then, by their fruit you will recognize them.
21Kai khaeah, Angraeng, Angraeng, tiah thui kami boih, van prae thungah akun o mak ai; van ah kaom kam Pa koehhaih sah kami ni akun tih.
21Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
22To na niah loe paroeai kaminawk mah kai khaeah, Angraeng, Angraeng, na hmin hoiah lok ka thuih o moe, na hmin hoiah taqawknawk to ka haek o, na hmin hoiah paroeai dawnrai hmuennawk ka sak o boeh na ai maw? tiah thui o tih.
22Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’
23To naah kai mah nihcae khaeah, Kang panoek o ai: zaehaih sah kaminawk, kai khae hoi tacawt oh, tiah ka naa han.
23Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness!’
24To pongah mi kawbaktih doeh ka thuih ih hae loknawk hae thaih moe, sah kami loe, lungsong nuiah im sah palungha kami hoiah anghmong:
24Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
25kho angzoh moe, tui to len, takhi song moe, im to hmuh; lungsong nuiah sak ih im ah oh pongah, amtim ai.
25The rain fell, the torrents raged, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because its foundation was on the rock.
26Mi kawbaktih doeh ka thuih ih hae loknawk hae thaih boeh, toe sah ai kami loe savuet nuiah im sah kamthu hoiah ni anghmong:
26But everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.
27kho angzoh moe, tui to len, takhi song moe, im to hmuh naah, im loe amtim rup: amtimhaih loe paroeai len, tiah a naa.
27The rain fell, the torrents raged, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell—and great was its collapse!”
28Jesu mah hae loknawk thuih pacoengah, kaminawk loe anih mah patuk ih hmuen pongah dawnrai o.
28When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were astonished at His teaching,
29Anih loe ca tarik kaminawk mah patuk ih baktiah patuk ai, sakthaihaih tawn kami mah patuk ih baktiah ni patuk.
29because He taught as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.
