1Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes and to his disciples,
1To pacoengah Jesu mah angpop kaminawk hoi a hnukbang kaminawk khaeah hae tiah lokthuih pae,
2Saying: The scribes and the Pharisees have sitten on the chair of Moses.
2ca tarik kami hoi Farasinawk loe Mosi ih tangkhang nuiah anghnut o:
3All things therefore whatsoever they shall say to you, observe and do: but according to their works do ye not; for they say, and do not.
3to pongah nihcae mah thuih ih lok to pazui o boih ah loe, sah pae oh; toe nihcae mah sak ih hmuen baktiah sah o hmah: nihcae loe a thuih o ih lok baktiah, sah o ai.
4For they bind heavy and insupportable burdens, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but with a finger of their own they will not move them.
4Nihcae loe phawh thai ai ih hmuenzit hoiah taoengh o moe, minawk ih palaeng ah a koeng pae o; toe angmacae loe to hmuennawk to banpazung hoiah tahruet han mataeng doeh koeh o ai.
5And all their works they do for to be seen of men. For they make their phylacteries broad, and enlarge their fringes.
5Nihcae mah sak ih hmuennawk boih loe kaminawk mah hnuk han ih ni sak o: nihcae loe ban ah zaeng ih hmuen to kalen ah sak o moe, kahni atom to kasawkah pakhrak o,
6And they love the first places at feasts, and the first chairs in the synagogues,
6buh raenghaih poihkung ah anghnuthaih hmuensang to koeh o moe, synagogue ah kasang koek anghnuthaih ahmuen to a koeh o,
7And salutations in the market place, and to be called by men, Rabbi.
7hmuenmae zawhhaih ahmuen ah minawk mah saiqat paekhaih, Rabbi, Rabbi, tiah kaminawk mah kawkhaih to a koeh o.
8But be not you called Rabbi. For one is your master; and all you are brethren.
8Toe nangcae loe Rabbi, tiah kawk o hmah, nangcae loe Patukkung, Kri khue ni na tawnh o; nangcae loe nawkamya ah ni na oh o boih.
9And call none your father upon earth; for one is your father, who is in heaven.
9Long nuiah mi kawbaktih doeh pa, tiah kawk o hmah: nangcae loe van ah kaom, nam Pa maeto khue ni na tawnh o.
10Neither be ye called masters; for one is you master, Christ.
10Patukkung, tiah na kawk o hanah, Patukkung maeto khue ni na tawnh o: anih loe Kri ni.
11He that is the greatest among you shall be your servant.
11Nangcae thung ih kalen koek kami loe nangcae ih tamna ah oh han angaih.
12And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled: and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
12Mi kawbaktih doeh angmah hoi angmah to amkoeh kami loe, pahnaem tathuk ah om tih; mi kawbaktih doeh poek pahnaem kami loe pakoehhaih om tih.
13But woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you shut the kingdom of heaven against men, for you yourselves do not enter in; and those that are going in, you suffer not to enter.
13Nangcae angsah thaih, Farasi hoi ca tarik kaminawk, khosak na bing o! Kaminawk hanah siangpahrang ah uk ih van prae to na khah pae o khoep: nangmacae doeh na kun o ai, a thungah akun koeh kaminawk doeh na pakaa o.
14Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: because you devour the houses of widows, praying long prayers. For this you shall receive the greater judgment.
14Nangcae angsah thaih, Farasi hoi ca tarik kaminawk, khosak na bing o! Lamhmainawk ih im to na taek o moe, angsakhaih hoiah kasawkah lawk na thuih o: to pongah kalen aep danpaekhaih to na hnu o tih.
15Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you go round about the sea and the land to make one proselyte; and when he is made, you make him the child of hell twofold more than yourselves.
15Nangcae angsah thaih, Farasi hoi ca tarik kaminawk, khosak na bing o! Kami maeto amkhraisak hanah tuipui hoi saoeng to na takui o moe, kami to na hnuk o naah, anih to nangmacae pong alet hnetto kamtlai ah hell ih caa ah nang coeng o sak.
16Woe to you blind guides, that say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but he that shall swear by the gold of the temple, is a debtor.
16Nangcae mikmaeng zaehoikungnawk, khosak na bing o! Nangcae mah mi kawbaktih doeh tempul hoi lokkamhaih sah kami loe kawbangah doeh om mak ai; toe tempul thung ih sui hoiah lokkamhaih sah kami loe, a lokkamhaih to caksak poe han oh, tiah na thuih o.
17Ye foolish and blind; for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
17Nangcae mikmaeng hoi amthu kaminawk: sui maw kalen kue, to tih ai boeh loe sui ciimsakkung tempul?
18And whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gift that is upon it, is a debtor.
18Mi kawbaktih doeh hmaicam hoi lokkamhaih sah kami loe, kawbangah doeh om mak ai, toe hmaicam nui ih tangqum hoiah lokkamhaih sah kami loe sak pazaehaih a tawnh, tiah na thuih o.
19Ye blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
19Nangcae mikmaeng hoi amthu kaminawk: tangqum maw kalen kue, to tih ai boeh loe tangqum ciimsakkung hmaicam?
20He therefore that sweareth by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things that are upon it:
20To pongah mi kawbaktih doeh hmaicam hoi lokkamhaih sah kami loe hmaicam hoi a nuiah kaom hmuen boih hoi lokkamhaih sak ah ni oh boeh.
21And whosoever shall swear by temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth in it:
21Mi kawbaktih doeh tempul hoi lokkamhaih sah kami loe tempul thungah kaom kami hoiah lokkamhaih sak ah ni oh boeh.
22And he that sweareth by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.
22Mi kawbaktih doeh van hoi lokkamhaih sah kami loe, Sithaw ih angraeng tangkhang hoi a nuiah anghnu kami hoiah lokkamhaih sak ah ni oh boeh.
23Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you tithe mint, and anise, and cummin, and have left the weightier things of the law; judgment, and mercy, and faith. These things you ought to have done, and not to leave those undone.
23Nangcae angsah cop thaih, ca tarik kami hoi Farasinawk, khosak na bing o! Nangcae loe cungpram, hmuihoih aan hoi cungsimnawk to haato thungah maeto na paek o, toe kaalok thungah kaom katoeng lokcaekhaih, kami tahmenhaih hoi tanghaih to tiah doeh na poek o ai: kalah hmuennawk to pahnawt sut ai ah, lokpui parai hmuennawk doeh na sak o han angaih.
24Blind guides, who strain out a gnat, and swallow a camel.
24Nangcae mikmaeng zaehoikungnawk, taksae maeto doeh oh han ai ah tui to na pacii o, toe kaengkuu hrang maeto na pa-aeh o lat.
25Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you make clean the outside of the cup and of the dish, but within you are full of rapine and uncleanness.
25Nangcae angsah cop, ca tarik kami hoi Farasi kaminawk, khosak na bing o! Boengloeng hoi sabaenawk to anui bang kaciim ah na pasaeh o, toe athung bangah loe kami lomhhaih hoi kamtlai koeh hmoekhaih hoiah koi.
26Thou blind Pharisee, first make clean the inside of the cup and of the dish, that the outside may become clean.
26Farasi mikmaengnawk, boengloeng hoi sabae to a thung bangah pasae o hmaloe ah, to tiah ni anui bang doeh ciim thai tih.
27Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you are like to whited sepulchres, which outwardly appear to men beautiful, but within are full of dead men’s bones, and of all filthiness.
27Nangcae angsah cop thaih, ca tarik kami hoi Farasinawk, khosak na bing o! Nangcae loe anui bang hoi khet kahoih ah rong kanglung hoi nok moe, athung bangah loe kadueh kaminawk ih ahuh, kaciim ai hmuennawk hoiah kakoi taprong hoiah ni anghmong.
28So you also outwardly indeed appear to men just; but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
28To baktih toengah nangcae doeh tasa bang hoiah loe kaminawk hma ah katoeng kami baktiah amtueng, toe a thung bangah loe angsak cophaih, zaehaih hoiah ni na koi o.
29Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; that build the sepulchres of the prophets, and adorn the monuments of the just,
29Nangcae angsah cop thaih, ca tarik kami hoi Farasinawk, khosak na bing o! Nangcae loe tahmaanawk ih taprong to na sak o moe, katoeng kaminawk ih taprong to na sak pathoep o,
30And say: If we had been in the days of our Fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
30kaicae loe kaimacae ampanawk ih adung ah kho ka sak o langlacadoeh, tahmaanawk athii palong kaminawk khaeah ka thum o mak ai, tiah na thuih o.
31Wherefore you are witnesses against yourselves, that you are the sons of them that killed the prophets.
31Nangcae loe tahmaanawk hum kaminawk ih caa ah na oh o, tiah nangmacae hoi nangmacae to hnukung ah na oh o.
32Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
32Nam panawk khosakhaih tuinuen to koi o sak ngala khae.
33You serpents, generation of vipers, how will you flee from the judgment of hell?
33Nangcae pahuinawk, nangcae pahui ih caanawk, kawbangmaw hell thung hoiah na loih o thai tih?
34Therefore behold I send to you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them you will put to death and crucify, and some you will scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city:
34To pongah khenah, Tahmaanawk, palungha kaminawk hoi ca tarik kaminawk to nangcae khaeah kang patoeh: thoemto kaminawk to na hum o ueloe, thinglam pongah na takhing o tih; thoemto kaminawk loe sineko ah na bop o ueloe, vangpui maeto pacoeng maeto ah na pacaektlaek o tih:
35That upon you may come all the just blood that hath been shed upon the earth, from the blood of Abel the just, even unto the blood of Zacharias the son of Barachias, whom you killed between the temple and the altar.
35tempul hoi hmaicam salakah na hum o ih, katoeng kami Abel hoi Barakiah capa, Zakariah karoek to long nuiah kalong katoeng kaminawk boih ih athii loe nangcae nuiah om tih.
36Amen I say to you, all these things shall come upon this generation.
36Loktang kang thuih o, hae hmuennawk boih loe hae adung ih kaminawk nuiah pha tih.
37Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered together thy children, as the hen doth gather her chickens under her wings, and thou wouldest not?
37Aw Jerusalem, Jerusalem, tahmaanawk humkung hoi nang khaeah patoeh ih kaminawk thlung hoiah vakung, aa amno mah a caanawk pakhraeh tlim ah tapop baktih toengah, na caanawk nawnto tapop hanah vai nazetto maw koehhaih ka tawnh boeh, toe nang mah na koeh ai!
38Behold, you house shall be left to you, desolate.
38Khenah, na im loe angqai krang ah ni oh sut boeh.
39For I say to you, you shall not see me henceforth till you say: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
39Kang thuih o, Angraeng ih ahmin hoi angzo kami loe tahamhoih, tiah na thui o ai karoek to, vaihi hoi kamgtong kai nang hnuh o mak ai boeh, tiah a naa.
