Matthew 10
1 He called to himself his twelve disciples, and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every sickness.
Anih loe kami hatlai hnettonawk to angmah khaeah kawk moe, kasae taqawknawk haek thaihaih, ngannathaih hoi congca nathaihnawk hoisakthaihaih to a paek.
2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these. The first, Simon, who is called Peter; Andrew, his brother; James the son of Zebedee; John, his brother;
Patoeh ih kami hatlai hnettonawk ih ahmin loe; hmaloe koek ah, Piter, tiah kawk ih Simon hoi amnawk Andru; Zebedi capa Jakob hoi amnawk Johan;
3 Philip; Bartholomew; Thomas; Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus; Lebbaeus, who was also called Thaddaeus;
Philip hoi Bartholomu; Thomas hoi tamut congkung Mathai; Alfai capa Jokob hoi Lebbai, tiah kalah ahmin kaom Thadai;
4 Simon the Zealot; and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
Kananite, tiah kawk ih Simon, Anih kaminawk ban ah paekkung, Juda Iskariot cae hae ni.
5 Jesus sent these twelve out and commanded them, saying, “Don’t go among the Gentiles, and don’t enter into any city of the Samaritans.
Jesu mah hae kami hatlai hnettonawk patoeh moe, nihcae khaeah, Gentel kaminawk khaeah caeh o hmah, Samaritan kaminawk ih vangpui ah doeh akun o hmah:
6 Rather, go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
toe tuu kanghmaa Israel imthung takohnawk khaeah caeh oh.
7 As you go, preach, saying, ‘The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!’
Na caeh o naah, van prae loe zoi boeh, tiah taphong oh.
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and cast out demons. Freely you received, so freely give.
Nganna kaminawk to ngantui o sak ah, ngansae man kaminawk to ciim o sak ah loe, kadueh kaminawk to pathawk oh, taqawknawk to haek oh: azom ah na hnuk o ih hmuen to azom ah paek oh.
9 Don’t take any gold, silver, or brass in your money belts.
Phoisa tabu thungah sui, sum kanglung hoi sum kamling phoisa to sin o hmah,
10 Take no bag for your journey, neither two coats, nor sandals, nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food.
kholong na caeh o naah pasah, khukbuen hnetto, khokpanai hoi cunghet doeh sin o hmah: toksahkung loe a tok sakhaih atho to hnuk han krak.
11 Into whatever city or village you enter, find out who in it is worthy, and stay there until you go on.
Vangpui ah maw, to tih ai boeh loe vangta ah maw, na kun o naah, na toemh o han koi im to pakrong oh; to ahmuen hoi na hloi o ai karoek to to im ah om o poe ah.
12 As you enter into the household, greet it.
Im maeto thungah na kun o naah, lok tapring oh.
13 If the household is worthy, let your peace come on it, but if it isn’t worthy, let your peace return to you.
To im ah oh han amcuk nahaeloe, na monghaih a nuiah om nasoe: toe amcuk ai nahaeloe, na monghaih to nangmah khaeah amlaem let nasoe.
14 Whoever doesn’t receive you or hear your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet.
Mi kawbaktih doeh nang toemsak ai, na lok doeh tahngai ai nahaeloe, to im hoiah maw, to tih ai boeh loe to vangpui hoiah maw na tacawt o naah, na khok pong ih maiphu to takhoek oh.
15 Most certainly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
Loktang kang thuih o, lokcaekhaih niah to vangpui loe Sodom hoi Gomorrah vangpui pongah nung kue tih.
16 “Behold, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
Khenah, tasuinawk salak ih tuu baktiah ni kang patoeh o: to pongah pahui baktiah palungha oh loe, pahuu baktiah acoe oh.
17 But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their synagogues they will scourge you.
Kaminawk khae hoiah acoe oh: to tih ai nahaeloe lokcaekhaih im ah na caeh o haih ueloe, angmacae ih Sineko ah na bop o moeng tih.
18 Yes, and you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
Kai pongah nihcae hoi Gentel kaminawk khaeah hnukung ah na oh o hanah, prae ukkungnawk hoi siangpahrangnawk khaeah na caeh o haih tih.
19 But when they deliver you up, don’t be anxious how or what you will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say.
Toe ang naeh o naah, nangcae mah kawbangmaw ka thuih o han, timaw ka thuih o han, tiah poek o hmah: to na atue thuem roe ah, na thuih o han ih lok to na paek tih.
20 For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.
Lokthuikung loe nangcae na ai ni, nangcae Ampa ih Muithla mah ni nangcae thungah lok to thuih.
21 “Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
Nawkamya mah nawkamya, ampa mah a caa to paduek hanah paek tih: a caanawk mah amno hoi ampa to misa ah suem ueloe, nihcae to paduek hanah sah o tih.
22 You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.
Kai pongah kaminawk boih mah na hnukma o tih: toe boeng khoek to pauep kami loe pahlonghaih to hnu tih.
23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next, for most certainly I tell you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man has come.
Ahmuen maeto ah na pacaekthlaek o nahaeloe, kalah ahmuen bangah caeh o taak ah: loktang kang thuih o, Kami Capa angzo ai karoek to Israel ih vangpuinawk to nam kae o boih mak ai.
24 “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord.
Ca amtuk kami loe patukkung ranui ah om ai, tamna doeh angmah ih angraeng ranui ah om ai.
25 It is enough for the disciple that he be like his teacher, and the servant like his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more those of his household!
Ca amtuk kami to patukkung baktiah oh moe, tamna doeh angraeng baktiah oh boeh loe khawt boeh. Im tawnkung to Beelzabub, tiah kawk o nahaeloe, anih imthung takoh ih kaminawk cae loe kawkruk maw kawk o tih?
26 Therefore don’t be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.
To pongah nihcae to zii o hmah: amtueng thai han ai ah kraeng ih hmuen tidoeh om ai; panoek thai han ai ah, hawk ih hmuen tidoeh om mak ai.
27 What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in the ear, proclaim on the housetops.
Khoving ah kang thuih o ih lok to, khodai ah thui oh: naa hoi na thaih o ih lok to imphu nuiah taphong oh.
28 Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
Takpum paduek thaih, hinghaih pakhra paduek thai ai kaminawk to zii o hmah: toe hinghaih pakhra hoi takpum hell thungah paduek thaih hmaek kami to zii oh. (Geenna g1067)
29 “Aren’t two sparrows sold for an assarion coin? Not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.
Paritca hnetto loe phoisa dip maeto hoiah zawh o na ai maw? Toe van ah kaom nangcae Ampa koehhaih baktih ai ah loe maeto doeh long ah krah mak ai.
30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Nangcae lu nui ih sam mataeng doeh kroek boih ah oh.
31 Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
To pongah zii o hmah, nangcae loe paritcanawk pongah atho na oh o kue.
32 Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven.
To pongah mi kawbaktih doeh kaminawk hmaa ah kai angdoe haih kami loe, van ah kaom kam Pa hmaa ah anih to kang doet haih toeng han.
33 But whoever denies me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in heaven.
Toe mi kawbaktih doeh kaminawk hmaa ah kai pahnawt kami loe, van ah kaom kam Pa hmaa ah anih to ka pahnawt toeng han.
34 “Don’t think that I came to send peace on the earth. I didn’t come to send peace, but a sword.
Kai loe angdaehhaih sin han ih ni long ah kang zoh, tiah poek o hmah: angdaehhaih sin hanah kang zo ai, sumsen sin han ih ni kang zoh.
35 For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
Kai pongah kami mah ampa to misa ah suem tih, canu mah amno to misa ah suem ueloe, langah mah angmah ih amni to misa ah suem tih,
36 A man’s foes will be those of his own household.
a imthung ih kami a misa ah ohsak han ih ni kang zoh, tiah a naa.
37 He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me isn’t worthy of me.
Kai pongah amno maw, ampa maw, palung kue kami loe kai ih kami ah oh han amcuk ai; a canu maw, a capa maw, kai pongah palung kue kami loe kai ih kami ah oh han amcuk ai.
38 He who doesn’t take his cross and follow after me isn’t worthy of me.
Angmah ih thinglam to aput moe, ka hnukah bang ai kami loe, kai ih kami ah oh han amcuk ai.
39 He who seeks his life will lose it; and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.
A hinghaih pakrong kami loe, pathlong ving tih: kai pongah a hinghaih pathlong ving kami loe hinghaih to hnu tih.
40 “He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.
Nangcae talawk kami loe kai talawk kami ah oh, kai talawk kami loe kai patoehkung talawk kami ah oh.
41 He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward. He who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.
Tahmaa ih ahmin hoiah tahmaa talawk kami loe, tahmaa ih tangqum to hnu tih; katoeng kami ih ahmin hoiah katoeng kami talawk kami loe, katoeng kami ih tangqum to hnu tih.
42 Whoever gives one of these little ones just a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.”
Mi kawbaktih doeh tetta hae kaminawk thung ih maeto khaeah, hnukbang kami maeto ih ahmin hoiah tui angqai boengloeng maeto paek kami loe, loktang kang thuih o, angmah ih tangqum to sung mak ai, tiah a naa.
