Luk 16
1 Jisuh ni a hnukkâbangnaw koe bout a dei pouh e teh, hnopai ka tawnta poung e bawi buet touh ao. Hote bawi ni hnopai ka kuem hane tami buet touh a tawn. Hote hnopai ka kuem e ni hnopai a kaseikasak telah bawi koe ka dei pouh e tami ao dawkvah,
And he said also unto his disciples, 'A certain man was rich, who had a steward, and he was accused to him as scattering his goods;
2 bawi ni ahni hah a kaw teh nange kong ka thai e heh bangtelah na maw. Ka hnopainaw na hno e cayin ka kuep lah na poe haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh ka hno ka khen e tami lah na awm thai hoeh toe telah atipouh.
and having called him, he said to him, What [is] this I hear about thee? render the account of thy stewardship, for thou mayest not any longer be steward.
3 Hatnavah Bawipa ni kai teh thaw dawk hoi na tâco sak toe, bangmaw ka tawk han. Laikawk tawk hane hai ka tawk thai hoeh, ayâ koe kutdaw hane hai kayayeirai ati.
'And the steward said in himself, What shall I do, because my lord doth take away the stewardship from me? to dig I am not able, to beg I am ashamed: —
4 Atuvah bangmaw ka sak han tie ka panue toe, hottelah ka sak pawiteh ka thaw a baw torei im dawkvah o sak han ka ngai e tami ka hui ka tawn han telah a pouk.
I have known what I shall do, that, when I may be removed from the stewardship, they may receive me to their houses.
5 Bawipa koe laiba ka tawn e taminaw pueng a kaw teh apasuek e tami koe ka Bawipa koe patho hane laiba na yit touh maw na ba titeh a pacei.
'And having called near each one of his lord's debtors, he said to the first, How much dost thou owe to my lord?
6 Hote tami ni satui nuenae 1,000 touh poe han ao telah a dei. Hnopai ka khen e tami ni vah hete na cayin lat nateh nuenae 500 touh thut telah atipouh.
and he said, A hundred baths of oil; and he said to him, Take thy bill, and having sat down write fifty.
7 Hathnukkhu alouke tami a kaw teh nang te laiba na yit touh maw na ba telah a pacei. Catun phei 1,000 touh poe han ao telah ati. Cayin lat nateh phei 800 touh thut telah atipouh.
'Afterward to another he said, And thou, how much dost thou owe? and he said, A hundred cors of wheat; and he saith to him, Take thy bill, and write eighty.
8 Hote hnopai ka khen ni teh tami ka dumyen e ni hot patetlah huenghai hoi hno a sak dawkvah a bawipa ni a oup. Bangkongtetpawiteh hete talaivan capanaw ni a thaw tawk e dawkvah angnae capanaw hlak vah a lunganghnawn telah ati. (aiōn g165)
'And the lord commended the unrighteous steward that he did prudently, because the sons of this age are more prudent than the sons of the light, in respect to their generation. (aiōn g165)
9 Bout ka dei e teh, na due torei a yungyoe kangning e lukkareiim dawk hui na tawn thai awh nahanelah, kangning hoeh e talai hno hno awh. (aiōnios g166)
and I say to you, Make to yourselves friends out of the mammon of unrighteousness, that when ye may fail, they may receive you to the age-during tabernacles. (aiōnios g166)
10 Hno kathoengca dawk yuemkamcu e tami teh hno kalen dawk hai yuemkamcu, hno kathoengca dawk yuemkamcuhoeh e tami teh hno kalen dawk hai yuemkamcuhoeh.
'He who is faithful in the least, [is] also faithful in much; and he who in the least [is] unrighteous, is also unrighteous in much;
11 Hottelah ao dawkvah ka kangning hoeh e talai hno hno navah, yuemkamcu lah na awm hoehpawiteh bangtelamaw bawitangrengnae katang poe lah ao han vaw.
if, then, in the unrighteous mammon ye became not faithful — the true who will entrust to you?
12 Hatdawkvah tami alouke hno dawkvah yuemkamcu hoeh lah na awm pawiteh apinimaw namamouh han lah hno na poe han maw.
and if in the other's ye became not faithful — your own, who shall give to you?
13 San buet touh ni vah bawi kahni touh e san lah awm thai hoeh, buet touh pahnawt vaiteh buet touh a lungpataw han. Buet touh koe yuemkamcu lah ao vaiteh buet touh e teh banglahai noutna mahoeh. Cathut hoi tangka e thaw mekkem thai mahoeh telah atipouh.
'No domestic is able to serve two lords, for either the one he will hate, and the other he will love; or one he will hold to, and of the other he will be heedless; ye are not able to serve God and mammon.'
14 Farasinaw ni a dei e naw pueng a thai navah, ahnimouh teh tangka ka ngai e tami lah ao dawkvah Bawipa a panuikhai awh.
And also the Pharisees, being lovers of money, were hearing all these things, and were deriding him,
15 Jisuh ni hai Farasinaw, nangmouh teh tami hmalah tamikalan lah na kâsak awh. Hatei Cathut ni nangmae lungthin a panue. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tami ni aphu kaawm poung lah a pouk eiteh Cathut hmalah panuetthopounge doeh.
and he said to them, 'Ye are those declaring yourselves righteous before men, but God doth know your hearts; because that which among men is high, [is] abomination before God;
16 Mosi e kâlawk hoi profetnaw ni a thut e naw teh Baptisma ka poe e Jawhan e atueng totouh hane doeh. Hathnukkhu Cathut uknaeram kamthang teh taminaw pueng koe dei lah ao vaiteh taminaw ni ram dawk a kâen awh han.
the law and the prophets [are] till John; since then the reign of God is proclaimed good news, and every one doth press into it;
17 Hatei kâlawk dawk e lawklung kathoengpounge buet touh a rawk hlak vah kalvan hoi talai a rawk e a yawi hnawn.
and it is easier to the heaven and the earth to pass away, than of the law one tittle to fall.
18 Nang ni na yu hoi na kampek teh alouke napui hoi na o, hote tami teh a uicuk toe. Hahoi a vâ ka mat e napui hoi kaawm e tami hai a uicuk van telah atipouh.
'Every one who is sending away his wife, and marrying another, doth commit adultery; and every one who is marrying her sent away from a husband doth commit adultery.
19 Vai touh teh ka tangreng poung e tami buet touh ao teh khohna phu kaawm poung hoi a kamthoup teh hnintangkuem kanawm poung lah kho a sak.
'And — a certain man was rich, and was clothed in purple and fine linen, making merry sumptuously every day,
20 Ka roedeng buet touh, âhlut hoi kakawi e, a min Lazarus tie teh, buramei ca hane pouknae lungthin hoi,
and there was a certain poor man, by name Lazarus, who was laid at his porch, full of sores,
21 tangreng bawi im longkha teng sut a tahung. Uinaw ni a tho teh a hmânaw a palem pouh.
and desiring to be filled from the crumbs that are falling from the table of the rich man; yea, also the dogs, coming, were licking his sores.
22 Hnin touh hnin vah ka roedeng e tami a due teh kalvantaminaw ni kalvan Abraham e a lungtabue dawkvah a thak awh. Tangreng bawi hai a due teh a pakawp awh.
'And it came to pass, that the poor man died, and that he was carried away by the messengers to the bosom of Abraham — and the rich man also died, and was buried;
23 Tangreng bawi teh hell dawk a bo teh puenghoi ka patawpoung lah khang laihoi ao. A moung teh a khet navah, Abraham hoi a lungtabue dawk kaawm e Lazarus hah ahlanae koehoi a hmu. (Hadēs g86)
and in the hades having lifted up his eyes, being in torments, he doth see Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom, (Hadēs g86)
24 Hattoteh, apa Abraham, na pahren haw. Kai teh hete hmaipalai dawk patawnae puenghoi ka khang dawkvah, Lazarus hah a kutdawn tui dawk ranup sak nateh ka lai pâding sak hanlah patoun haw telah hramki laihoi a dei.
and having cried, he said, Father Abraham, deal kindly with me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and may cool my tongue, because I am distressed in this flame.
25 Hatei Abraham ni, ka capa, na hring na thungvah hnopai phunkuep poe lah na o. Lazarus teh roedeng lah ao e hah pahnim hanh. Hatei atuvah ahni teh kanawm poung lah ao, nang teh rei thai hoi na o.
'And Abraham said, Child, remember that thou did receive — thou — thy good things in thy life, and Lazarus in like manner the evil things, and now he is comforted, and thou art distressed;
26 Hothloilah maimouh rahak vah kadung poung e ravo pui ni na rakhan. Hatdawkvah hi lahoi nangmouh koe lah raka han ka ngai e tami ni raka thai hoeh. Hot patetlah nangmouh koe lahoi kaimouh koe lah raka han ka ngai e ni raka thai hoeh telah atipouh.
and besides all these things, between us and you a great chasm is fixed, so that they who are willing to go over from hence unto you are not able, nor do they from thence to us pass through.
27 Tangreng bawi ni pawiteh, Oe! apa, Lazarus hah kai na pa im vah na patoun pouh haw
'And he said, I pray thee, then, father, that thou mayest send him to the house of my father,
28 Hawvah ka hmaunawngha panga touh ao rah. Ahnimouh ni hete puenghoi patawnae hmuen koe a pha awh hoeh nahanelah lawkpanuesaknae poe sak hanelah ka ngai telah atipouh.
for I have five brothers, so that he may thoroughly testify to them, that they also may not come to this place of torment.
29 Abraham ni, na hmaunawnghanaw ni Mosi hoi profetnaw ni dei e hah tarawi awh naseh, telah atipouh.
'Abraham saith to him, They have Moses and the prophets, let them hear them;
30 Tangreng bawi ni, a pa, Abraham, hottelah nahoeh, duenae koehoi buetbuet touh ni, ahnimanaw koe cet pawiteh a hringnae pan a kângai han doeh telah ati.
and he said, No, father Abraham, but if any one from the dead may go unto them, they will reform.
31 Hatei Abraham ni, ahnimanaw ni Mosi hoi profetnaw e lawk ngâi awh hoehpawiteh, tami buetbuet touh ni duenae koehoi ka thaw nakunghai yuem mahoeh, telah atipouh.
And he said to him, If Moses and the prophets they do not hear, neither if one may rise out of the dead will they be persuaded.'
