King James Version with Apocrypha
1Te phoeiah Jesuh loh hlangping rhoek neh a hnukbang rhoek te a voek tih,
1Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,
2“Cadaek rhoek neh Pharisee rhoek tah Moses kah ngoltlang dongah ngol uh .
2Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat:
3Te dongah nangmih taengah a thui uh sarhui te boeih vai uh lamtah tuem uh. Tedae amih kah khoboe bangla saii uh boeh, a thui uh tih a vai uh haew moenih .
3All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.
4Te phoeiah hno te a rhih la a boep uh tih phueihtloel la hlang kah laengpang dongah a tloeng uh dae amamih tah a kutdawn nen khaw tat sak ham ngaih uh pawh .
4For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.
5A khoboe te khaw hlang kah a hmuh la boeih a saii uh. A cacimbu te a kaa uh tih salaw te oep uh .
5But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,
6Buhkung ah hmuensang, tunim ah ngolhmuen then neh ,
6And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,
7Hnoyoih hmuen kah toidalnah uh neh hlang loh Rhabbi la a khue te a lungnah uh .
7And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
8Tedae nangmih tah Rhabbi la n'khue boel saeh. Nangmih kah saya tah pakhat ni aka om tih nangmih boeih te boeinaphung la na om uh .
8But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
9Te dongah diklai hmankah he pa la na khue uh mahpawh, vaan kah pa pakhat ni nangmih ham a om .
9And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
10Mawtkung la n'khue uh boel saeh, Khrih tah nangmih mawtkung la rhenten om coeng .
10Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.
11Nangmih khuikah aka tanglue tah nangmih kah tueihyoeih la om ni .
11But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
12Tedae amah aka pomsang te tah tlarhoel vetih amah aka tlarhoel te tah a pomsang ni .
12And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
13Anunae nangmih cadaek rhoek neh Pharisee hlangthai palat rhoek, hlang kah hmaiah vaan ram te na khaih uh tih, namamih khaw na kun uh pawh, aka kun rhoek te khaw kun ham na hlah pa uh pawh .
13¶ But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves , neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
14Nuhmai kah imlo te na yoop uh phoeiah a hmanhu ah puet na thangthui uh.Te dongah nangmih kah laitloekkung la om uh ni .
14Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
15Anunae nangmih cadaek rhoek neh Pharisee hlangthai palat rhoek, pakhat te poehlip sak ham tuili neh rhamrhae na hil uh. Tedae a om tanglai vaengah tah anih te namamih laklah rhaepnit la hell kah a ca la na poeh sak uh .
15Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
16Anunae nangmih mawtkung mikdael rhoek , ' Bawkim neh aka toemngam te tah a toemngam phu om pawh, tedae bawkim kah sui neh a toemngam te man a kuek nah mako ,’ aka ti rhoek
16Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor!
17Mikdael neh hlang ang rhoek, melae tanglue la aka om? Sui a? Sui aka ciim bawkim a?
17Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
18Te phoeiah , ' Hmueihtuk neh aka toemngam te tah a phu om pawh, tedae hmueihtuk dongkah hmueih neh aka toemngam te aaitlaeng nah mako aka ti , rhoek.
18And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.
19Mikdael rhoek aw melae a tanglue? Kutdoe a? Kutdoe aka ciim hmueihtuk a?
19Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
20Te dongah hmueihtuk neh aka toemngam tah hmueihtuk neh a sokah boeih boeih neh a toemngam coeng .
20Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.
21Te phoeiah Bawkim neh aka toemngam tah Bawkim neh a tolvael te a toemngam coeng .
21And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.
22Te phoeiah vaan neh aka toemngam tah Pathen kah ngolkhoel neh te dongah aka ngol neh a toemngam coeng .
22And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.
23Anunae nangmih cadaek rhoek neh Pharisee hlangthai palat rhoek aw, sungii, sungsing neh sungkueng te na paek uh. Tedae olkhueng khuikah olpuei la aka om tiktamnah, rhennah, tangnah te na hlahpham uh. Tedae he rhoek he saii ham a kuek atah te rhoek khaw hlahpham boeh .
23Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
24Mawtkung mikdael rhoek, pildik pataeng na soih u dae kalauk na dolh uh .
24Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
25Anunae nangmih cadaek rhoek neh Pharisee hlangthai palat rhoek, boengloeng neh baelphaih te a hmanhu ah na silh uh dae a khuikah halhkanah dongah khoeihveetnah neh na bae uh .
25Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
26Pharisee mikdael rhoek boengloeng kah a khui te lamhma la cilpoe dae. Te daengah ni poeng ben khaw a caih la a om eh.
26Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.
27Anunae nangmih cadaek rhoek neh Pharisee hlangthai palat rhoek, hlan a bok neh na loo uh. Te te ahmanhu ah sawtthen la tueng dae aka duek kah a rhuh neh rhongingnah boeih neh bae .
27Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness.
28Nangmih khaw a hmanhu ah tah hlang dueng la na phoe uh tangloeng ngawn, tedae a khuiah thailatnah neh olaeknah a bae la om .
28Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
29Anunae nangmih cadaek rhoek neh Pharisee hlangthai palat rhoek, tonghma rhoek kah hlan te na saii uh tih hlang dueng rhoek kah phuel te na thoeihcam uh .
29Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
30Te phoeiah , ' A pa rhoek kah a tue vaengah ng'om uh koinih tonghma rhoek kah a thii dongah amih kah pueipo la ng'om pawt sue ,’ na ti uh .
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.
31Te dongah tonghma rhoek aka ngawn kah a ca rhoek la na om uh te na oep uh .
31Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.
32Nangmih long khaw na pa rhoek kah a hmatoeng ni na koei uh .
32Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
33Rhul rhoek, rhulthae cadil rhoek, laitloeknah hell lamkah metlam na rhaelrham uh eh?
33Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
34He dongah ni kai loh tonghma rhoek, hlangcueih rhoek neh cadaek rhoek te nangmih taengah kan tueih he. Amih te na ngawn uh vetih na tai uh bal veh. Amih te namamih kah tunim ah na boh uh vetih khopuei lamkah khopuei la na hnaemtaek uh veh .
34¶ Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
35Te dongah hlang dueng Abel kah thii lamloh bawkim neh hmueihtuk lakloah na ngawn uh Berikhiah kah capa Zekhriah kah thii duela, diklai hmanah hlang dueng rhoek kah thii a hawk te nangmih soah boeih thoeng .
35That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
36Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, he rhoek tah tahae kah cadil soah boeih thoeng ni .
36Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
37“Jerusalem, Jerusalem, tonghma rhoek aka ngawn neh a taengla a tueih rhoek te aka dae, ainu loh aicahui ke a phae hmuiah a hluembael vaengkah a longim bangla na ca rhoek te hluembael ham ka ngaih taitu dae na ngaih uh pawh .
37O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
38Na im tah namamih taengah khosoek la a hlahpham coeng he .
38Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
39Te dongah nangmih taengah kan thui , ' Boeipa ming neh aka pawk tah a yoethen pai , ' tila na ti uh hlan atah tahae lamkah loh kai muei na hmuh uh loeng loeng mahpawh,” a ti nah.
39For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
