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 while Jesus was walking through grainfields, his disciples began picking some heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands, and eating them.
2 Te dongah Pharisee rhoek khuikah hlangvang loh, “Sabbath vaengah a ngaih pawt te balae tih, na saii uh?” a ti nah.
Some of the Pharisees questioned him, asking, “Why are you doing what is not permitted 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 never read what David did when he and his men 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.
How he went into the house of God and took the consecrated bread? He ate it, and gave it to his men too. That's not permitted either. The consecrated bread is only for the priests.”
5 Te phoeiah amih te, “Hlang Capa tah Sabbath Boeipa ni,” a ti nah.
Then he told them, “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 he went into the synagogue to teach. A man was there with a crippled right hand.
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.
The religious teachers and the Pharisees were observing Jesus closely to see if he would heal on the Sabbath. They wanted to find something to accuse him of.
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 what was in their minds. He told the man with the crippled hand, “Get up, and stand here in front of everyone.” The man 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 turned to them and said, “Let me ask you a question. Is it legal to do good on the Sabbath, or to do bad? 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.
He looked round at all of them there. Then he said to the man, “Hold out your hand.” The man did so, and his hand became like new.
11 Amih a anglat neh hah uh sumsoek tih, Jesuh te saii hamla amamih khat neh khat te thui uh thae.
But they flew into a rage, and began to discuss what they could do to Jesus.
12 A tue a pha vaengah thangthui ham tlang la cet tih, Pathen taengah thangthuinah neh hak.
One day shortly after, Jesus went up a mountain to pray. He remained there all night, praying 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 morning came he called together his disciples, and chose twelve of them. These are the names of the apostles:
14 Te vaengah Peter la a khue Simon te khaw, a mana Andrew khaw, James neh Johan khaw, Philip neh Bartholomew khaw,
Simon (also called Peter by Jesus), Andrew his brother, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew,
15 Matthai neh Thomas khaw, Alphaeus capa James neh Namlung la a khue Simon khaw,
Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Revolutionary,
16 James capa Judah neh hlangyoi la aka om Judah Iskariot khaw thum van.
Judas the 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.
Jesus went back down the mountain with them, and stopped at a place where there was some flat ground. There a crowd made up of his disciples and many other people from all over Judea, Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, had gathered to listen to him and to be cured from their diseases.
18 Amih tah a taengah hnatun ham neh, a tlohtat lamloh hoeih hamla, rhalawt mueihla loh a tulnoi rhoek hoeih ham ha pawk uh.
Those who were troubled by evil spirits were also healed.
19 Jesuh lamkah thaomnah a coe vaengah tah boeih a hoeih uh dongah anih aka taek ham hlangping loh boeih a toem uh.
Everyone in the crowd tried to touch him, because power was coming out 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 at his disciples, Jesus told them,
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.
“How happy are you who are poor, for the kingdom of God is yours. How happy are you who are hungry now, for you will eat all you need. How happy are you who are weeping 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.
How happy are you when people hate you, exclude you, insult you, and curse your name as evil because of me, 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.
When that day comes, be happy. Jump for joy, for great is your reward in heaven. Don't forget their forefathers mistreated the prophets just like this.
24 Tedae anunae nangmih kuirhang rhoek aih, namamih kah thaphohnah ni na bawt uh.
But how sad are you who are rich, for you have already received your reward.
25 Anunae nangmih aka hah coeng rhoek khaw na pong uh ni. Anunae aka nuei coeng rhoek, na nguek neh na rhap uh ni.
How sad are you who are full now, for you will become hungry. How sad are you who laugh now, for you will mourn and cry.
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.
How sad are you when everyone praises you. Don't forget that their forefathers praised false prophets just like this.
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 I say to those of you who are listening: 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 hits you on one cheek, turn the other cheek. If someone takes your coat, don't prevent them taking your shirt.
30 Na taengah aka bih boeih te pae lamtah, na koe a khuen te khaw lat voel boeh.
Give to anyone who asks you. If someone takes something from you, don't ask for it back.
31 Hlang loh nangmih taengah a saii ham na ngaih uh bangla amih taengah saii uh van.
Do to others what you want them to 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, why should you deserve any credit for that? 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, why should you deserve any credit for that either? Sinners do that as well.
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.
If you lend money expecting to be repaid, why should you deserve any credit for that? Sinners lend money to other sinners as well, expecting to be repaid what they loaned.
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.
No: love your enemies, do good to them, and lend without expecting to be repaid anything. Then you will receive a great reward, and you will be children of the Most High God, for he is kind to ungrateful and wicked people.
36 Na pa te sitlohthamla la a om van dongah silohthamlam la om uh.
Be compassionate, just as your Father is compassionate.
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.
Don't judge, and you won't be judged; don't condemn, and you won't be condemned; forgive, and you'll 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 you will be given generously in return. When what you're given is measured out, it's pressed down so more can be added, spilling out over the top, pouring into your lap! For how much you give will determine how much you receive.”
39 Te phoeiah amih ham nuettahnah pakhat koep a thui. “Mikdael loh mikdael long a tueng thai khaming? Rhom la bok cungku mahpawt nim?
Then he illustrated the point: “Can a blind person lead another? Wouldn't they both fall into a ditch?
40 Hnukbang tah saya soah a om moenih. Boeih aka moeh uh pataeng a saya banglam ni a om eh.
Do students know more than the teacher? Only when they've learned everything: then they will be like their teacher.
41 Na manuca mik kah mikdaeng te metlam na hmuhuh. Namah mik khuikah thingboeng pataeng na hmat moenih.
Why are you so worried about the speck that's in your brother's eye when you don't even notice the plank that's 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 to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take out the speck that's in your eye,’ when you don't even see the plank that's in your own eye? Hypocrite! Take out the plank from your own eye first, and then you'll be able to see well enough to take out 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.
A good tree doesn't produce bad fruit, and a bad tree doesn't produce 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.
You recognize a tree by the fruit it produces. You don't pick figs from thorn bushes, or harvest 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.
Good people produce what's good from the good things they value that they have stored inside them. Bad people produce what's bad from the bad things they have stored inside them. What fills people's minds spills out in what they say.
46 Balae tih kai he BOEIPA, BOEIPA tila nang khueuh. Ka thui te na saii uh hae moenih.
So why do you bother to call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ when you don't 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'll give you an example of someone who comes to me, hears my instructions, and follows 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.
That person is like a man building a house. He digs down deep and lays the foundations on solid rock. When the river bursts its banks and the floodwater breaks against the house it's not damaged because it's built so well.
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.
The person who hears me but doesn't do what I say is like a man who builds a house without foundations. When the floodwater breaks against the house it collapses immediately, completely destroyed.”
