< Mathai 13 >

1 To na niah Jesu loe im hoiah caeh moe, tuipui taengah anghnut.
On that day Yeshua went out of the house and sat by the seaside.
2 To naah paroeai kaminawk anih khaeah amkhueng o pongah, anih loe palong thungah caeh moe, anghnut; kaminawk loe tui taengah angdoet o.
Great multitudes gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat and sat; and all the multitude stood on the beach.
3 Anih mah to kaminawk khaeah patahhaih hoiah pop parai lok to a thuih pae, Khenah, aanmu haeh kami maeto loe aanmu haeh hanah caeh;
He spoke to them many things in parables, saying, “Behold, a farmer went out to sow.
4 aanmu a haeh naah, thoemto aanmunawk loe loklam ah krak, tavaanawk angzoh o moe, aanmu to akhuih o boih:
As he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.
5 thoemto aanmunawk loe long tampa tlungcaret nuiah krak: long tampa pongah amprawk o phrat:
Others fell on rocky ground, where they didn’t have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth.
6 toe ni tacawt naah loe ni kabae mah aankungnawk to dawk; tangzun om ai pongah, azaem o roep.
When the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.
7 Thoemto aanmu loe soekhringnawk thungah krak; soekhringnawk loe qoeng o tahang moe, aankungnawk to tahlip hmoek:
Others fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked them.
8 thoemto aanmunawk loe long kahoih thungah krak moe, athaih athaih o, thoemto loe alet cumvai, quitaruk hoi quithumto ah athaih o.
Others fell on good soil and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
9 Naa tawn kami loe, thaih na soe, tiah a naa.
He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
10 A hnukbang kaminawk anih khaeah angzoh o moe, Tipongah rangpui kaminawk khaeah patahhaih hoiah lok na thuih loe? tiah a dueng o.
The disciples came, and said to him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?”
11 Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Siangpahrang mah uk ih van prae loktamqu to panoek thaihaih to nangcae khaeah paek boeh, toe nihcae khaeah loe paek ai.
He answered them, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, but it is not given to them.
12 Mi kawbaktih doeh katawn kami loe thap pae aep ueloe, pop parai ah tawn tih: toe mi kawbaktih doeh katawn ai kami loe a tawnh ih hmuen to doeh la pae kik tih.
For whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he has.
13 To pongah ni nihcae khaeah loe patahhaih lok hoiah ka thuih pae: nihcae loe khet o, toe hnu o ai; tahngaih o, toe thaih o ai; thaih kophaih tawn o ai.
Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they don’t see, and hearing, they don’t hear, neither do they understand.
14 Tahmaa Isaiah mah, Na tahngai o tih, toe na thaih o kop mak ai; na khen o tih, toe na panoek o thai mak ai:
In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says, ‘By hearing you will hear, and will in no way understand; Seeing you will see, and will in no way perceive;
15 hae kaminawk loe palung maeng o, naa hoiah thaih o thai ai, mik pasim o ving; to tih ai nahaeloe nihcae mah mik hoiah hnu o tih; naa hoiah thaih o ueloe, palung hoiah panoek o tih; hnukbang ah angqoi o ueloe, nihcae to ngan ka tuisak moeng tih, tiah thuih ih lok loe nihcae ah akoep boeh:
for this people’s heart has grown callous, their ears are dull of hearing, and they have closed their eyes; or else perhaps they might perceive with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, and I would heal them.’
16 toe kahnu thaih mik hoi thaikophaih naa loe, tahamhoih.
“But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.
17 Loktang kang thuih o, paroeai tahmaanawk hoi katoeng kaminawk mah na hnuk o ih hmuennawk hae hnuk han a koeh o, toe hnu o thai ai; na thaih o ih hmuennawk doeh thaih han a koeh o, toe thaih o thai ai.
For most certainly I tell you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them; and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.
18 To pongah aanmu haeh kami patahhaih lok to tahngai oh:
“Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.
19 kami maeto loe Sithaw prae lok to thaih naah, thai kop ai, to pacoengah taqawk angzoh moe, anih palung thungah haeh ih lok to lak pae ving. Hae loe loklam ah kakrah aanmu hoiah anghmong.
When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom and doesn’t understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
20 Tlungcaret thungah kakrah aanmu loe lok to thaih naah, oephaih hoiah talawk roep kami hoiah anghmong;
What was sown on the rocky places, this is he who hears the word and immediately with joy receives it;
21 toe anih loe tangzun om ai pongah, nawnetta thungah ni oh: Sithaw lok pongah raihaih hoi pacaekthlaekhaih oh naah, anih loe amtim roep.
yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.
22 Soekhring thungah kakrah aanmu loe lok to thaih, toe anih loe long hae palung pongah, alinghaih hoi angraenghaih mah lok to khuk khoep, to pongah athaih athai ai kami hoiah anghmong. (aiōn g165)
What was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
23 Long kahoih thungah kakrah aanmu loe, lok to thaih naah, panoek thaihaih to a tawnh; anih loe athaih to athaih moe, thoemto loe alet cumvaito, thoemto loe quitarukto, thoemto loe quithumto ah angpung, tiah a naa.
What was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word and understands it, who most certainly bears fruit and produces, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.”
24 Anih mah kalah patahhaih lok nihcae khaeah thuih pae let: Siangpahrang mah uk ih van prae loe angmah ih lawk thungah canti haeh kami maeto hoiah anghmong:
He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field,
25 toe kaminawk iih o naah, a misa to angzoh, cangti thungah phroh mu to haeh moe, a caehtaak ving.
but while people slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel weeds also among the wheat, and went away.
26 Cang loe amprawk moe, aquih to tacawt, to naah phroh doeh amprawk tahang toeng.
But when the blade sprang up and produced grain, then the darnel weeds appeared also.
27 To pongah lawk tawnkung ih tamnanawk to anih khaeah angzoh o moe, Angraeng, kahoih cangti na ai maw lawk thungah na haeh? Naa hoiah maw prohnawk hae amprawk loe? tiah a naa o.
The servants of the householder came and said to him, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where did these darnel weeds come from?’
28 To naah anih mah nihcae khaeah, Misa mah ni hae tiah sak, tiah a naa. Tamnanawk mah anih khaeah, to tih nahaeloe ka caeh o moe, ka phong o han maw? tiah naa o.
“He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ “The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and gather them up?’
29 Toe anih mah, To tiah na ai ni; phroh to na phongh o nahaeloe, cang doeh na phongh o hmaek tih.
“But he said, ‘No, lest perhaps while you gather up the darnel weeds, you root up the wheat with them.
30 Cang aat ai karoek to nawnto amprawk hoi rae nasoe: cang aahhaih atue phak naah cangaat kaminawk khaeah, hmai hoi qoeng hanah phrohnawk to akhui oh loe, taoeng o hmaloe ah: toe cang loe kai mah ih tapup thungah thaeng oh, tiah ka naa han, tiah a thuih pae.
Let both grow together until the harvest, and in the harvest time I will tell the reapers, “First, gather up the darnel weeds, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn.”’”
31 Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Siangpahrang mah uk ih van prae loe kami maeto mah lak moe, angmah ih lawk ah haeh ih antam mu maeto hoiah anghmong, tiah kalah patahhaih lok a thuih pae let bae:
He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took, and sowed in his field,
32 to antam mu loe aanmunawk boih thungah kathoeng koek ah oh: toe amprawt naah loe phronawk boih pong kalen koek ah oh, thingkung ah angcoeng pongah, van ih tavaanawk to angzoh o moe, tahangnawk pongah acuk o, tiah a naa.
which indeed is smaller than all seeds. But when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches.”
33 Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Siangpahrang mah uk ih van prae loe nongpata maeto mah taeh to lak moe, tui noekhaih boengloeng thumto kaom takaw thungah taeh to a phuih naah, taeh mah anguengsak ih takaw hoiah anghmong, tiah kalah patahhaih lok to a thuih pae let.
He spoke another parable to them. “The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, until it was all leavened.”
34 Hae hmuennawk loe Jesu mah pop parai kaminawk khaeah thuih ih patahhaih lok ah oh; patahhaih lok patoh ai ah loe nihcae khaeah tidoeh thui pae ai:
Yeshua spoke all these things in parables to the multitudes; and without a parable, he didn’t speak to them,
35 to pongah tahmaa mah, Patahhaih hoiah lok ka thuih moe, long oh tangsuek na hoi tamquta ah suek ih hmuennawk to ka thuih han, tiah thuih ih lok akoep han ih ni to tiah oh.
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world.”
36 To pacoengah Jesu mah kaminawk to tacawtsak moe, im thungah a caeh: to naah a hnukbang kaminawk anih khaeah angzoh o moe, Lawk thung ih phroh patahhaih lok to kamtuengah na thui ah, tiah a naa o.
Then Yeshua sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the darnel weeds of the field.”
37 Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Kahoih cangti haeh kami loe, kami Capa ni;
He answered them, “He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,
38 lawk loe long hae ni; kahoih cangti loe Siangpahrang ukhaih prae thungah kaom caanawk thuih koehhaih ih ni; toe phrohnawk loe kasae kaminawk ih caa thuih koehhaih ah oh;
the field is the world, the good seeds are the children of the Kingdom, and the darnel weeds are the children of the evil one.
39 phroh haeh kami ih misa loe taqawk ni; cang aahhaih loe long boenghaih ah oh, cangaat kaminawk loe van kaminawk ni. (aiōn g165)
The enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. (aiōn g165)
40 Phrohnawk to lak o moe, hmai thungah vah o baktih toengah, hae long tue boeng naah om tih. (aiōn g165)
As therefore the darnel weeds are gathered up and burned with fire; so will it be at the end of this age. (aiōn g165)
41 Kami Capa mah angmah ih van kaminawk to patoeh tih, zaehaih sah kami hoi kahoih ai hmuen sah kaminawk boih to angmah ih prae thung hoiah nihcae mah nawnto pakhueng o ueloe,
The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his Kingdom all things that cause stumbling and those who do iniquity,
42 paroeai kabae hmai kamngaeh thungah va o tih: to ah qahhaih hoi hakaekhaih to om tih.
and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
43 To pacoengah katoeng kaminawk loe angmacae Ampa mah uk ih prae ah ni baktiah aang o tih. Thaihaih naa tawn kami loe, thaih nasoe, tiah a naa.
Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
44 Van prae loe lawk thungah hawk ih hmuen hoiah anghmong; to hmuen to kami maeto mah hnuk naah, a hawk hmoek, anghoehaih hoiah a caeh moe, a tawnh ih hmuennawk to zawh boih pacoengah, to lawk hmuen to a qanh.
“Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid. In his joy, he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
45 To pacoengah, van prae loe kahoih pale thlung pakrong hmuenmae zaw kami hoiah anghmong:
“Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,
46 anih mah atho kaom pale thlung to hnuk naah caeh moe, a tawnh ih hmuennawk to zawh boih pacoengah, to thlung to a qanh.
who having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.
47 To pacoengah, van prae loe tanga congca kaman, tuipui thungah haeng ih palok hoiah anghmong:
“Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea and gathered some fish of every kind,
48 palok to tanga hoi koi mong naah, nihcae mah tuicing bangah zaeh o, anghnut o moe, kahoih tanga to daengkraem thungah pacaeng o, kahoih ai tanga loe a vah o ving.
which, when it was filled, fishermen drew up on the beach. They sat down and gathered the good into containers, but the bad they threw away.
49 Long boeng naah loe to tiah om tih: van kaminawk to angzo o ueloe, katoeng kaminawk thung hoiah kazae kaminawk to pathlaeng o tih, (aiōn g165)
So it will be in the end of the world. The angels will come and separate the wicked from among the righteous, (aiōn g165)
50 nihcae to paroeai kabae hmai kamngaeh thungah va o tih: to ah loe qahhaih hoi hakaekhaih to om tih, tiah a naa.
and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
51 Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Hae hmuennawk hae na thaih o kop boih maw? tiah a naa. Nihcae mah, Ue, Angraeng, tiah a naa o.
Yeshua said to them, “Have you understood all these things?” They answered him, “Yes, Lord.”
52 Anih mah nihcae khaeah, To pongah siangpahrang mah uk ih van prae kawng patuk ca tarik kaminawk boih loe, a tawnh ih hmuen kangtha hoi kangquem tasa bangah kasin, im tawn kami maeto hoiah anghmong, tiah a naa.
He said to them, “Therefore every scribe who has been made a disciple in the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a householder, who brings out of his treasure new and old things.”
53 Jesu mah hae patahhaih lok thuih pacoengah, to ahmuen to a caehtaak.
When Yeshua had finished these parables, he departed from there.
54 Angmah ih vangpui ah a caeh moe, sineko ah kaminawk to patuk, to naah nihcae mah dawnrai o moe, Hae kami loe naa hoi ih maw hae baktih palunghahaih hoi dawnrai toksakthaihaihnawk hae a tawnh? tiah thuih o.
Coming into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished and said, “Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works?
55 Anih loe thing aat kami ih capa na ai maw? Anih ih amno loe Meri na ai maw? Anih ih nawkamyanawk loe Jakob, Jose, Simon hoi Judah na ai maw?
Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t his mother called Miriam, and his brothers Jacob, Yosi, Simon, and Judah?
56 Anih ih tanuhnawk doeh aicae hoi nawnto oh o na ai maw? Hae kami loe naa hoi ih maw hae baktih hmuennawk hae a tawnh? tiah a thuih o.
Aren’t all of his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all of these things?”
57 Kaminawk loe anih nuiah palung hoih o ai. Toe Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Tahmaa loe angmah im hoi angmah ih vangpui tasa bangah ni, pakoehhaih hoiah oh, tiah a naa.
They were offended by him. But Yeshua said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country and in his own house.”
58 Nihcae loe tanghaih tawn o ai pongah, to ahmuen ah dawnrai hmuen to sah pae mangh ai.
He didn’t do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
