Luka 6
1 Vai hnetto haih Sabbath niah, Jesu loe lawk thung hoiah caeh; to naah a hnukbang kaminawk mah cangqui to pahoeh o, ban hoiah ahnoih o moe, pakuep o.
One Sabbath Jesus was walking through cornfields, and his disciples were picking the ears of wheat, and rubbing them in their hands, and eating them.
2 Thoemto Farasi kaminawk mah nihcae khaeah, Tipongah Sabbath niah sak han koi ai hmuen to na sak o loe? tiah a naa o.
“Why are you doing what it is not allowable to do on the Sabbath?” asked some of the Pharisees.
3 Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, David mah zok amthlam naah, angmah hoi nawnto kaom kaminawk hoiah sak ih hmuen kawng to na kroek o vai ai maw?
Jesus’ answer was: “Have not you read even of what David did, when he was hungry, he and his companions —
4 Anih loe Sithaw imthung ah akun moe, qaimanawk khue mah caak han koi takaw to a lak moe, a caak pacoengah, angmah hoi nawnto kaom ampuinawk hanah doeh paek toeng to loe, tiah a naa.
That he went into the House of God, and took the consecrated bread and ate it, and gave some to his companions, though only the priests are allowed to eat it?”
5 To pacoengah anih mah nihcae khaeah, Kami Capa loe Sabbath Angraeng ah oh, tiah a naa.
Then Jesus added: “The Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath.”
6 Anih loe kalah Sabbath niah doeh, Sineko thungah akun moe, kaminawk to patuk: to naah to ahmuen ah bantang ban kakhaem kami maeto oh.
On another Sabbath Jesus went into the Synagogue and taught; and there was a man there whose right hand was withered.
7 Anih zaehaih net o thai hanah, Sabbath niah nganna kami ngantuisak tih vai, tiah Farasinawk hoi ca tarik kaminawk mah anih to khet o.
The Teachers of the Law and the Pharisees watched Jesus closely, to see if he would work cures on the Sabbath, so that they might find a charge to bring against him.
8 Toe anih mah nihcae poekhaih to panoek pae pongah, ban khaem kami khaeah, Angthawk ah loe kaminawk salakah angdoe ah, tiah a naa. To naah to kami loe angthawk moe, angdoet.
Jesus, however, knew what was in the their minds, and said to the man whose hand was withered: “Stand up and come out into the middle.” The man stood up;
9 Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Lok maeto kang dueng o han; Sabbath niah kahoih hmuen maw sak han hoih, to tih ai boeh loe kasae hmuen? Hinghaih pahlong maw, to tih ai boeh loe paduek? tiah a naa.
and Jesus said to them: “I ask you, is it allowable to do good on the Sabbath — or harm? to save a life, or let it perish?”
10 Nihcae boih a khet pacoengah, to kami khaeah, Ban payangh ah, tiah a naa. To kami mah ban to payangh, to naah anih ih ban loe kalah ban maeto baktih toengah hoih pae roep.
Then, looking round at them all, he said to the man: “Stretch out your hand.” The man did so; and his hand had become sound.
11 Nihcae loe palungphui o; Jesu to kawbangmaw sak nahaeloe hoi tih, tiah maeto hoi maeto lok angdueng o.
But the Teachers of the Law and the Pharisees were goaded to madness, and consulted together what they could do to Jesus.
12 Nito naah anih loe lawkthuih hanah mae nuiah caeh, aqum puek Sithaw khaeah lawk a thuih.
Now about that time, Jesus went out, up the hill, to pray, and spent the whole night in prayer to God.
13 Khawnbang khodai naah loe, a hnukbang kaminawk to angmah khaeah kawk: kami hatlai hnettonawk to a qoih, nihcae to patoeh ih kaminawk, tiah ahmin paek;
When day came, he summoned his disciples, and chose twelve of them, whom he also named ‘Apostles.’
14 Simon doeh (Piter, tiah ahmin paek), anih ih amnawk Andru, Jakob, Johan, Philip, Batholomu,
They were Simon (whom Jesus also named Peter), and his brother Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew,
15 Mathai, Thomas, Alpheaus capa Jakob, Zealot, tiah kawk ih Simon,
Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Simon known as the Zealot,
16 Jakob amnawk angmah kangphat taak kami, Judas Iskariot cae to a qoih.
Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who proved a traitor.
17 Anih loe nihcae hoi nawnto mae nui hoiah anghum tathuk, tangtling ahmuen to phak naah angdoet, a hnukbang kaminawk, Judea prae, Jerusalem vangpui, Tura hoi Sidon tuipui taengah kaom pop parai kaminawk loe anih ih lok to tahngaih o moe, nihcae nathaih hoisak hanah anih khaeah angzoh o;
Afterwards Jesus came down the hill with them and took his stand on a level place. With him were a large crowd of his disciples, and great numbers of people from the whole of Judea, Jerusalem, and the coast district of Tyre and Sidon,
18 to kaminawk loe taqawk mah naeh ih kami ah oh o, toe nihcae loe ngantui o.
who had come to hear him and to be restored to health. Those, too, who were troubled with foul spirits were cured;
19 Anih khae hoiah thacakhaih to tacawt moe, nihcae to ngantuisak boih pongah, minawk boih mah anih to sui hanah koeh o.
and every one in the crowd was trying to touch him, because a power went out from him which restored them all.
20 A hnukbang kaminawk to khet moe, Nangcae kamtang kaminawk taham na hoih o: Sithaw prae loe nangcae ih ni.
Then, raising his eyes and looking at his disciples, Jesus spoke as follows: “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the Kingdom of God.
21 Nangcae vaihi zok amthlam kaminawk taham na hoih o: zok nam hah o tih. Nangcae vaihiah qah kaminawk taham na hoih o: na pahnui o tih.
Blessed are you who hunger now, for you shall be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now, for you shall laugh.
22 Kami Capa pongah, kaminawk mah ang hnukma o, ang pahnawt o, ang zoeh o, ahmin kasae ang thuih o naah, tahamhoih kami ah ni na oh o.
Blessed are you when men hate you, and when they expel you from among them, and taunt you, and reject your Name as an evil thing — on account of the Son of Man.
23 To na niah nangcae loe anghoehaih hoiah amloep oh: khenah, nangcae hanah kalen parai tangqum to van ah oh: nihcae ampanawk mah tahmaanawk mataeng doeh to tiah ni sak o.
Then indeed you may be glad and dance for joy, for be sure that your reward in Heaven will be great; for that is what their ancestors did to the Prophets.
24 Toe nangcae angraengnawk khosak na bing o! Nangmacae patloephaih to na hnuk o boeh.
But ‘alas for you who are rich,’ for you have had your comforts in full.
25 Nangcae zok amhah kaminawk khosak na bing o! Zok nam thlam o tih. Nangcae vaihiah pahnui kaminawk khosak na bing o! Palung na naa o ueloe, na qah o tih.
Alas for you who are sated now, for you will hunger. Alas for you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.
26 Kami boih mah pakoeh ih kaminawk, khosak na bing o! To tiah ni nihcae ih ampanawk mah kamro tahmaanawk pakoeh o.
Alas for you when all men speak well of you; for this is what their ancestors did to the false Prophets.
27 Toe ka lok tahngai kami, kang thuih o, na misanawk to palung oh, nangcae hnuma kaminawk khaeah kahoih hmuen to sah oh,
But to you who hear I say — Love your enemies, show kindness to those who hate you,
28 nangcae kasae thui kaminawk tahamhoihaih paek oh, nangcae raihaih paek kaminawk hanah lawkthui pae oh.
bless those who curse you, pray for those who insult you.
29 Na tangbaeng maeto bang tabaeng kami khaeah kalah tangbaeng maeto doeh patueng paeh; nang ih kahni la ving kami hanah laihaw kalen doeh paek han paawt hmah.
When a man gives one of you a blow on the cheek, offer the other cheek as well; and, when any one takes away your cloak, do not keep back your coat either.
30 Nangcae khaeah hmuen hni kaminawk hanah paek oh, nang ih hmuen la ving kaminawk khaeah hni let hmah.
Give to every one who asks of you; and, when any one takes away what is yours, do not demand its return.
31 Minawk mah na nuiah saksak han na koeh ih baktih toengah minawk nuiah doeh sah ah.
Do to others as you wish them to do to you.
32 Nangcae palung kami khue to na palung o nahaeloe, atho timaw om tih? Kazae kaminawk mah mataeng doeh nihcae palung kaminawk to palung o toeng bae.
If you love only those who love you, what thanks will be due to you? Why, even the outcast love those who love them!
33 Nangcae nuiah kahoih hmuen sah kaminawk khae khue ah kahoih hmuen na sak o nahaeloe, atho timaw om tih? Kazae kaminawk mah mataeng doeh to tiah sak o toeng bae.
For, if you show kindness only to those who show kindness to you, what thanks will be due to you? Even the outcast do that!
34 Pathok thai tih, tiah na poek o ih kaminawk khae khue ah hmuenmae na coi o sak nahaeloe, atho timaw om tih? Kazae kaminawk mah mataeng doeh kapop ah hnuk hanah kazae kaminawk khaeah a coi o sak toeng bae.
If you lend only to those from whom you expect to get something, what thanks will be due to you? Even the outcast lend to the outcast in the hope of getting as much in return!
35 Toe na misanawk to palung oh, kahoih hmuen to sah oh loe, pathok let han oephaih tawn ai ah coi o sak ah; to tiah nahaeloe nangcae han kalen parai tangqum to om ueloe, Kasang koek ih caa ah na om o tih: anih loe kawnhaih lok thui thai ai kaminawk hoi kazae kaminawk khaeah mataeng doeh tahmenhaih to tawnh.
But love your enemies, and show them kindness, and lend to them, never despairing. Then your reward shall be great, and you shall be Sons of the Most High, for he is kind to the thankless and the bad.
36 Nangcae ampa loe palungnathaih to tawnh, to tiah nangcae mah doeh palungnathaih to tawn o toeng ah.
Learn to be merciful — even as your Father is merciful.
37 Lokcaekhaih na tongh o han ai ah, minawk to lokcaek o hmah: padaenghaih na hnuk o han ai ah, minawk to padaeng o hmah: minawk zaehaih tahmen oh, tahmenhaih na hnu o toeng tih:
Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.
38 paek oh, na paek o toeng tih; minawk mah kahoih ah ang noek pae o moe, paek khue khawt ai ah, kakoi mongah na hnawt pae o tathuk ueloe, nawnto ahoek pacoengah, kamthlai pok ah na saoek nuiah na krai pae o tih. Minawk han na noek pae o ih baktih toengah, na noek pae o let tih, tiah a naa.
Give, and others will give to you. A generous measure, pressed and shaken down, and running over, will they pour into your lap; For the measure that you mete will be meted out to you in return.”
39 Anih mah nihcae khaeah patahhaih lok a thuih pae, Mikmaeng mah mikmaeng to hoi thai tih maw? Hoi nahaeloe tangqom thungah krah hoi hmaek mak ai maw?
Then, speaking in parables, Jesus said: “Can one blind man guide another? Will they not both fall into a ditch?
40 Ca amtuk kami loe anih patukkung pongah kop kue ai: toe mi kawbaktih doeh kakoep ah amtuk kami loe anih patukkung baktiah om tih.
A scholar is not above his teacher; yet every finished scholar shall be like his teacher.
41 Tipongah na mik thungah kaom anuen to panoek ai ah, nawkamya mik thung ih anuen to na khet pae loe?
And why do you look at the straw in your brother’s eye, while you pay no attention at all to the beam in your own?
42 To tih ai boeh loe na mik thung ih anuen mataeng doeh hnu ai ah, kawbangmaw nawkamya khaeah, Nawkamya, na mik thung ih anuen to kang lak pae han, tiah na thui thai tih? Nang angsah cop kami! Na mik thung ih anuen to la hmaloe ah, to pacoengah ni na mik to amtueng ueloe, nawkamya mik thung ih anuen to na la pae thai tih.
How can you say to your brother ‘Brother, let me take out the straw in your eye,’ while you yourself do not see the beam in your own? Hypocrite! Take out the beam from your own eye first, and then you will see clearly how to take out the straw in your brother’s.
43 Kahoih thing loe athaih kasae athai vai ai; to baktih toengah kasae thing mah doeh kahoih athaih to athai vai ai.
There is no such thing as a good tree bearing worthless fruit, or, on the other hand, a worthless tree bearing good fruit.
44 Angmah ih athaih hoiah akung kawng to panoek thaih. Mi mah doeh soekhring thing hoiah thaiduet thaih to pakhrik vai ai, soekhring takha thung hoiah doeh nihcae mah misurthaih pakhrik o vai ai.
For every tree is known by its own fruit. People do not gather figs off thorn bushes, nor pick a bunch of grapes off a bramble.
45 Kahoih kami loe a palung thungah akom kahoih hmuen to a sinh, kahoih ai kami loe a palung thungah kaom kahoih ai hmuen to a sinh: palung thungah koi kamtlai to ni pakha hoiah thuih.
A good man, from the good stores of his heart, brings out what is good; while a bad man, from his bad stores, brings out what is bad. For what fills a man’s heart will rise to his lips.
46 Ka thuih ih hmuennawk to sah ai ah, tikhoe Angraeng, Angraeng, tiah nang kawk o loe?
Why do you call me ‘Master! Master!’ and yet fail to do what I tell you?
47 Mi kawbaktih doeh kai khaeah kangzo, ka loknawk to tahngai moe, thuih ih loknawk baktih toengah sah kami loe kawbaktih hmuen hoiah maw anghmong, tito kang patuek o han:
Every one who comes to me and listens to my teaching and acts upon it — I will show you to whom he may be compared.
48 anih loe im sah kami maeto hoiah anghmong, anih mah long to kathuk ah takaeh moe, thlung nuiah im to sak: tuiphu angthawk moe, tui mah to im to tanawt naah, thlung nuiah sak ih im ah oh pongah, anghuen ai.
He may be compared to a man building a house, who dug, and went deep, and laid the foundation upon the rock. Then, when a flood came, the river swept down upon that house, but had no power to shake it, because it had been built well.
49 Toe ka lok to thaih moe, sah ai kami loe, kacakah angdoethaih ahmuen kaom ai long a nuiah im sah kami hoiah anghmong; tui mah a im to tha hoiah tanawt naah, akra ai ah amtimh roep; to im amrohaih loe len parai, tiah a naa.
But those who have listened and not acted upon what they have heard may be compared to a man who built a house on the ground without any foundation. The river swept down upon it, and the house immediately collapsed; and great was the crash that followed.”
