< Luka 6 >

1 Sabbath a om vaengah Jesuh te canghli longah pah phai. Te vaengah a hnukbang rhoek loh cangvuei te a yun uh tih a kut neh a noi uh phoeiah a caak uh.
One Sabbath Jesus was passing through the grainfields, and His disciples began to pick the heads of grain, rub them in their hands, and eat them.
2 Te dongah Pharisee rhoek khuikah hlangvang loh, “Sabbath vaengah a ngaih pawt te balae tih, na saii uh?” a ti nah.
But some of the Pharisees asked, “Why are you doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?”
3 Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Amah neh a taengkah rhoek te bungpong la a om vaengah David loh a saii te na tae uh mahnim he.
Jesus replied, “Have you not read what David did when he and his companions were hungry?
4 Pathen im ah kun tih a hmai kah vaidam te a loh tih a caak phoeiah a taengkah rhoek khaw a paek ta, te te khosoih rhoek bueng pawt atah u khaw cah ham a paek moenih ta,” a ti nah.
He entered the house of God, took the consecrated bread and gave it to his companions, and ate what is lawful only for the priests to eat.”
5 Te phoeiah amih te, “Hlang Capa tah Sabbath Boeipa ni,” a ti nah.
Then Jesus declared, “The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
6 A tloe vaengah khaw Sabbath a om nen tah tunim la cet tih a thuituen. Te vaengah bantang kut aka khaem hlang pakhat om van.
On another Sabbath Jesus entered the synagogue and was teaching, and a man was there whose right hand was withered.
7 Te dongah anih te Sabbath vaengah a hoeih sak atah a paelnaeh thil te hmuh hamla cadaek rhoek neh Pharisee rhoek loh a dawn uh.
Looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, the scribes and Pharisees were watching Him closely to see if He would heal on the Sabbath.
8 Tedae amih kah poeknah te a ming dongah, kut khaem la aka om hlang te, “Thoo lamtah a laklung ah pai lah,” a ti nah vanbangla thoo tih pai.
But Jesus knew their thoughts and said to the man with the withered hand, “Get up and stand among us.” So he got up and stood there.
9 Te phoeiah amih te Jesuh loh, “Nangmih te kan dawt lah eh, Sabbath vaengah a then ham neh thae ham, hinglu khang ham neh poci sak ham, melae a ngaih?” a ti nah.
Then Jesus said to them, “I ask you, which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to destroy it?”
10 Te phoeiah amih te boeih a sawt tih, “Na kut te yueng,” a ti nah. Tedae anih long khaw a ngai van dongah a kut te a then pah.
And after looking around at all of them, He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He did so, and it was restored.
11 Amih a anglat neh hah uh sumsoek tih, Jesuh te saii hamla amamih khat neh khat te thui uh thae.
But the scribes and Pharisees were filled with rage and began to discuss with one another what they might do to Jesus.
12 A tue a pha vaengah thangthui ham tlang la cet tih, Pathen taengah thangthuinah neh hak.
In those days Jesus went out to the mountain to pray, and He spent the night in prayer to God.
13 Khothaih a pha vaengah tah a hnukbang rhoek te a khue. Amih lamkah hlang hlainit te a tuek tih, amih te caeltueih rhoekla a khue bal.
When daylight came, He called His disciples to Him and chose twelve of them, whom He also designated as apostles:
14 Te vaengah Peter la a khue Simon te khaw, a mana Andrew khaw, James neh Johan khaw, Philip neh Bartholomew khaw,
Simon, whom He named Peter, and his brother Andrew; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew;
15 Matthai neh Thomas khaw, Alphaeus capa James neh Namlung la a khue Simon khaw,
Matthew and Thomas; James son of Alphaeus and Simon called the Zealot;
16 James capa Judah neh hlangyoi la aka om Judah Iskariot khaw thum van.
Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.
17 Te phoeiah amih te a suntlak puei tih hmuen naep ah pai uh. A hnukbang rhoek te muep hlangping uh tih, Judah pum neh Jerusalem, Tyre neh Sidon tuikaeng lamkah pilnam rhaengpuei khaw muep omuh.
Then Jesus came down with them and stood on a level place. A large crowd of His disciples was there, along with a great number of people from all over Judea, Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon.
18 Amih tah a taengah hnatun ham neh, a tlohtat lamloh hoeih hamla, rhalawt mueihla loh a tulnoi rhoek hoeih ham ha pawk uh.
They had come to hear Him and to be healed of their diseases, and those troubled by unclean spirits were healed.
19 Jesuh lamkah thaomnah a coe vaengah tah boeih a hoeih uh dongah anih aka taek ham hlangping loh boeih a toem uh.
The entire crowd was trying to touch Him, because power was coming from Him and healing them all.
20 Te phoeiah a hnukbang rhoek te Jesuh loh a mik a huel thil, “Khodaeng rhoek tah a yoethen pai, Pathen ram tah nangmih kah ni.
Looking up at His disciples, Jesus said: “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.
21 A yoe aka then rhoek tah tahae ah na bungpong cakhaw na hah uh ni, yoethen hlang rhoek tah tahae ah na rhap uh cakhaw na nuei uh bitni.
Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.
22 Nangmih te hlang loh m'hmuhuet uh vaengah, nangmih te n'hlaang uh tih n'thuithet uh vaengah khaw, hlang capa kongah a thae la na ming a voeih vaengah khaw na yoethen uh.
Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you and insult you and reject your name as evil because of the Son of Man.
23 Tekah khohnin ah omngaih uh lamtah soipetuh. Nangmih kah thapang tah vaan ah muep om coeng ke. Amah te tlam ni a napa rhoek loh tonghma rhoek te a saii uh.
Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, because great is your reward in heaven. For their fathers treated the prophets in the same way.
24 Tedae anunae nangmih kuirhang rhoek aih, namamih kah thaphohnah ni na bawt uh.
But woe to you who are rich, for you have already received your comfort.
25 Anunae nangmih aka hah coeng rhoek khaw na pong uh ni. Anunae aka nuei coeng rhoek, na nguek neh na rhap uh ni.
Woe to you who are well fed now, for you will hunger. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.
26 Anunae hlang tom loh a then la nangmih n'thui uh vaengkah aih. Amah te tlam ni na pa rhoek loh laithae tonghma rhoek te a saii uh.
Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for their fathers treated the false prophets in the same way.
27 Tedae ka ol aka hnatun nangmih rhoek taengah kan thui, na rhal rhoek te lungnah uh, nangmih aka hmuhuet rhoek ham a then saii pa uh.
But to those of you who will listen, I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
28 Nangmih thae aka phoei rhoek te uem uh, nangmih aka hnaep rhoek ham thangthui pa uh.
bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.
29 Kamrhuh ah nangmih aka bop tah pakhat te khaw duen pah. Na himbai aka khuen te angki khaw hloh pah boeh.
If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. And if someone takes your cloak, do not withhold your tunic as well.
30 Na taengah aka bih boeih te pae lamtah, na koe a khuen te khaw lat voel boeh.
Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what is yours, do not demand it back.
31 Hlang loh nangmih taengah a saii ham na ngaih uh bangla amih taengah saii uh van.
Do to others as you would have them do to you.
32 Nangmih aka lungnah rhoek bueng te na lungnah uh koinih nangmih ham mebang lungvatnah lae a om eh? hlangtholh rhoek long pataeng amamih aka lungnah rhoek a lungnah uh ta.
If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them.
33 Nangmih ham aka then rhoek taengah dawk na then van koinih nangmih ham mebang lungvatnah lae a om eh? Amah te bang te hlangtholh rhoek long khaw a saii uh ta.
If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do the same.
34 A taeng lamkah dang hamla na ngaiuep uh te na puu uh koinih nangmih ham mebang lungvatnah lae a om eh? Te tlam te dang boeiloeih ham ngawn tah hlangtholh rhoek loh hlangtholh roek te a puu uh van ta.
And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full.
35 Na rhal rhoek taengah pataeng lungnah neh then pa uh lamtah na puu vaengah khaw lamtawn uh voel boeh. Te daengah ni nangmih kah thapang tah muep om vetih Khohni ca rhoek la na om uh eh. Amah tah noihhai neh boethae taengah khaw kodam la om ta.
But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them, expecting nothing in return. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.
36 Na pa te sitlohthamla la a om van dongah silohthamlam la om uh.
Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
37 Hlang te lai na thui thil uh pawt daengah ni lai la n'thui uh loengloeng pawt eh. Hlang te boe sak uh boeh nangmih m'boe sak uh loengloeng mahpawh. Tholh te hlah pa uh lamtah nangmih khaw han hlah van ni.
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 Pae uh, lamtah nangmih te m' paek van ni. Cangnoek then dongah a det tih a rhueng tangtae te na rhang ah a baecoih la m' paek bitni. Na loeng nah cangnoek nen te nangmih ham a loeng van ni,” a ti nah.
Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.”
39 Te phoeiah amih ham nuettahnah pakhat koep a thui. “Mikdael loh mikdael long a tueng thai khaming? Rhom la bok cungku mahpawt nim?
Jesus also told them a parable: “Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a pit?
40 Hnukbang tah saya soah a om moenih. Boeih aka moeh uh pataeng a saya banglam ni a om eh.
A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like his teacher.
41 Na manuca mik kah mikdaeng te metlam na hmuhuh. Namah mik khuikah thingboeng pataeng na hmat moenih.
Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but fail to notice the beam in your own eye?
42 Metlam lae na manuca te, “Manuca, na mik khuikah mikdaeng kang koeih eh, “na ti nah thai. Na mik khuikah thingboeng te namah loh na hmuh moenih. Hlangthai palat aw namah mik lamkah thingboeng te koeih lamhma dae, te daengah ni na manuca mik khuikah mikdaeng na koeih ham khaw phaeng na hmuh eh.
How can you say, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while you yourself fail to see the beam in your own eye? You hypocrite! First take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
43 Thaih huk la aka cuen thing then he a om moenih, thaih tak la aka cuen thing thae khaw a om van moenih.
No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit.
44 Thingkung boeih he a thaih long ni a mingpha sak eh. Hlingkung lamkah loh thaibu thaih a bit uh moenih. Tangpuem dongah misur a yoep uh moenih.
For each tree is known by its own fruit. Indeed, figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor grapes from brambles.
45 Hlang then long tah thinko khui lamkah khohrhang then te hnothen la a thoeng sak tih, hlang thae loh boethae dong lamkah loh hnothae te a thoeng sak. Thinko kah aka baecoih te ni a ka loh a thui.
The good man brings good things out of the good treasure of his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil treasure of his heart. For out of the overflow of the heart, the mouth speaks.
46 Balae tih kai he BOEIPA, BOEIPA tila nang khueuh. Ka thui te na saii uh hae moenih.
Why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ but not do what I say?
47 Kai taengla aka pawk tih ka ol a yaak neh aka saii boeih tah u bangla a om khaw nangmih kan tueng eh.
I will show you what he is like who comes to Me and hears My words and acts on them:
48 Anih tah im aka sa hlang phek la om. Anih tah a to khaw dung tih lungpang soah khoengim a khueh. Tuili om tih tuiva loh tekah im te a daeng. Tedae a then la a sak dongah a hinghuen thai moenih.
He is like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid his foundation on the rock. When the flood came, the torrent crashed against that house but could not shake it, because it was well built.
49 A yaak tih aka saii pawt rhoek tah khoengim om kolla diklai sokah im aka sa hlang bangla om tih tuiva loh a daeng vaengah pahoi tim van. Te dongah im kah a po a ci khaw muep om.
But the one who hears My words and does not act on them is like a man who built his house on ground without a foundation. The torrent crashed against that house, and immediately it fell—and great was its destruction!”
