Matthai 10
1 A hnukbang hlainit te a khue tih amih te, rhalawt mueihla, haek sak ham, tlohtat boeih neh tlohnat boeih te hoeih sak ham saithainah a paek.
And having called to him his twelve disciples, he gave to them power over unclean spirits, so as to be casting them out, and to be healing every sickness, and every malady.
2 Te vaengah caeltueih hlainit kah a ming tah he rhoek he ni. Lamhma ah, Peter la a khue Simon neh a mana Andrew, Zebedee capa James neh a mana Johan,
And of the twelve apostles the names are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James of Zebedee, and John his brother;
3 Philip neh Bartholomew, Thomas neh mangmucoi Matthai, Alphaeus capa James neh Taddaeus,
Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the tax-gatherer; James of Alpheus, and Lebbeus who was surnamed Thaddeus;
4 Kanaan Simon neh amah aka voei Judah Iskariot.
Simon the Cananite, and Judas Iscariot, who did also deliver him up.
5 Jesuh loh hlainit rhoek te a tueih ham a uen vaengah, “Namtom rhoek kah longpuei ah pongpa uh boeh, Samaria khopuei khuila kun uh boeh.
These twelve did Jesus send forth, having given command to them, saying, 'To the way of the nations go not away, and into a city of the Samaritans go not in,
6 Tedae Israel imkhui kah tu aka poci rhoek taengah mah cet uh.
and be going rather unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 Aka cet rhoek loh, ' Vaan ram yoei coeng, 'tila thui lamtah hoe uh.
'And, going on, proclaim saying that, the reign of the heavens hath come nigh;
8 Tattloel rhoek te hoeih sak uh, aka duek thoh uh, hmaibae cing sak uh, rhaithae te haek uh, a yoe la na dang uh te a yoe la pae uh.
infirm ones be healing, lepers be cleansing, dead be raising, demons be casting out — freely ye did receive, freely give.
9 Na cihin khuiah sui, ngun, rhohum te kaelh uh boeh.
'Provide not gold, nor silver, nor brass in your girdles,
10 Longpueng hamla sungsa, angki yungnit, khokhom conghol khuen uh boeh. Bibikung tah amah caak te a om pah tueng.
nor scrip for the way, nor two coats, nor sandals, nor staff — for the workman is worthy of his nourishment.
11 Mebang khopuei neh vangca khuiah na kun uh vaengah, “Te khuikah a tueng la aka om te toem uh lamtah na voei hlan duela naeh uh dae.
'And into whatever city or village ye may enter, inquire ye who in it is worthy, and there abide, till ye may go forth.
12 Im khuila na kun vaengah toidal uh.
And coming to the house salute it,
13 Aka koih imkhui ni a om van atah nangmih kah ngaimongnah loh thoeng thil saeh. Tedae a tueng la a om pawt atah nangmih kah ngaimongnah te nangmih taengah ha bal saeh.
and if indeed the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it; and if it be not worthy, let your peace turn back to you.
14 Nangmih te n'doe pawt tih nangmih kah ol a hnatun pawt te tah, te imkhui khaw, khopuei khaw voelh na caeh vaengah na kho kah tangdik te khoek pah uh.
'And whoever may not receive you nor hear your words, coming forth from that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet,
15 Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, “Laitloeknah khohnin ah Sodom neh Gomorrah kho pataeng tekah khopuei lakah phoeng pueng ni.
verily I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
16 Uithang lakli ah tu bangla kai loh nangmih kan tueih ne. Te dongah rhul bangla cueih khueh lamtah vahu bangla caepakyik la om uh.
'Lo, I do send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves, be ye therefore wise as the serpents, and simple as the doves.
17 Hlang rhoek te ngaithuen uh, nangmih te khoboei rhoek taengla n'thak uh ni. Te vaengah nangmih te tunim ah m'bohuh ni.
And, take ye heed of men, for they will give you up to sanhedrims, and in their synagogues they will scourge you,
18 Kai kongah khoboei rhoek neh manghai rhoek hmailah n'khuen uh ni. Amih taeng neh namtom rhoek taengah laipai la na om uh ni.
and before governors and kings ye shall be brought for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
19 Tedae nangmih te n'thak uh vaengah balae, metlam lae na thui eh ti mawn uh boeh. Amah a tue vaengah na thui uh koi nangmih taengah m'paek bitni.
'And whenever they may deliver you up, be not anxious how or what ye may speak, for it shall be given you in that hour what ye shall speak;
20 Te rhoek aka voek la na om uh moenih. Tedae Na Pa kah Mueihla loh nangmih khuiah a thui bitni.
for ye are not the speakers, but the Spirit of your Father that is speaking in you.
21 Manuca loh manuca, a napa loh a ca te dueknah dongah a voeih ni. Ca rhoek long khaw a manu napa te a tingtoeh vetih a duek sak ni.
'And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and father child, and children shall rise up against parents, and shall put them to death,
22 Kai ming dongah hlang boeih kah a hmuhuet la na om uh ni. Tedae a bawtnah duela aka ueh tah daem ni.
and ye shall be hated by all because of my name, but he who hath endured to the end, he shall be saved.

'And whenever they may persecute you in this city, flee to the other, for verily I say to you, ye may not have completed the cities of Israel till the Son of Man may come.
24 Hnukbang he saya soah a om moenih, sal khaw a boei soah a om moenih.
'A disciple is not above the teacher, nor a servant above his lord;
25 Hnukbang te a saya bangla, sal loh a boei bangla a om mah rhoeh coeng. Imkung te Beelzeboul a phoei thil uh atah a imko ngawn tah bahoeng nah.
sufficient to the disciple that he may be as his teacher, and the servant as his lord; if the master of the house they did call Beelzeboul, how much more those of his household?
26 Te dongah amih te rhih uh boeh. Muekdah la aka om te pumphoe mueh pawt tih a huephael te a ming mueh moenih.
'Ye may not, therefore, fear them, for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed, and hid, that shall not be known;
27 A hmuep ah kan thui te vangnah khuiah thui. Na hna ah na yaak te imphu soah hoe uh.
that which I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light, and that which you hear at the ear, proclaim on the house-tops.
28 Pum aka ngawn rhoek te rhih uh boeh. Tedae hinglu a ngawn thai moenih. Pum neh hinglu boktlap la hell ah aka poci sak thai te mah rhih uh. (Geenna g1067)
'And be not afraid of those killing the body, and are not able to kill the soul, but fear rather Him who is able both soul and body to destroy in gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
29 Vahnup phiknit te pe la a yoih moenih a? Tedae na Pa pawt koinih te rhoek khuikah pakhat pataeng lai ah tla mahpawh.
'Are not two sparrows sold for an assar? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father;
30 Nangmih lu kah sam pataeng boeih a tae la om coeng.
and of you — even the hairs of the head are all numbered;
31 Te dongah rhih uh boeh. Nangmih tah vahnup lakah muep na tiing uh ta.
be not therefore afraid, than many sparrows ye are better.
32 Te dongah hlangping hmaiah kai aka ming hlang boeih tah vaan kah a Pa hmaiah anih te ka ming van ni.
'Every one, therefore, who shall confess in me before men, I also will confess in him before my Father who is in the heavens;
33 Tedae hlang hmaiah kai aka hnawt te tah vaan kah a pa hmaiah anih te ka hnawt van ni.
and whoever shall deny me before men, I also will deny him before my Father who is in the heavens.
34 Diklai ah ngaimongnah khuen hamla ka pawk tila poek uh boeh. Ngaimongnah ham pawt tih cunghang muk ham ni ka pawk coeng.
'Ye may not suppose that I came to put peace on the earth; I did not come to put peace, but a sword;
35 Kai tah hlang pakhat neh a napa, a canu neh a manu, a langa neh a mani phihrha ham ni ka pawk.
for I came to set a man at variance against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law,
36 Hlang kah rhal tah a imkhui ah om ni.
and the enemies of a man are those of his household.
37 Kai lakah a manu neh a napa aka lungnah te tah kai neh aka tiing la om pawh. Kai lakah a capa neh a canu aka lungnah te khaw kai neh aka tiing la a om moenih.
'He who is loving father or mother above me, is not worthy of me, and he who is loving son or daughter above me, is not worthy of me,
38 A thinglam a koh kolla ka hnukah aka bang te tah kai neh aka tiing la a om moenih.
and whoever doth not receive his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.
39 Amah kah hinglu aka hmutah poci vetih, kai kongah a hinglu aka poci loh te te a hmuh ni.
'He who found his life shall lose it, and he who lost his life for my sake shall find it.
40 Nangmih aka doe tah kai ni n'doe. Kai aka doe long khaw kai aka tueih te a doe.
'He who is receiving you doth receive me, and he who is receiving me doth receive Him who sent me,
41 Tonghma ming neh tonghma aka doe tah tonghma kah thapang te a dang ni. Hlang dueng ming neh hlang dueng aka doe tah hlang dueng kah thapang te a dang van ni.
he who is receiving a prophet in the name of a prophet, shall receive a prophet's reward, and he who is receiving a righteous man in the name of a righteous man, shall receive a righteous man's reward,
42 Hnukbang ming neh tuiding boengloeng khat ca he kah a yit khuiah pakhat aka tul te tah, nangmih taengah rhep kan thui coeng, a thapang te yoe loengloeng mahpawh,” a ti nah.
and whoever may give to drink to one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say to you, he may not lose his reward.'
