Matthai 18
1 Te vaeng tue ah hnukbang rhoek loh Jesuh te a paan uh tih, “Vaan ram ah ulae tanglue la aka om,” a ti na uh.
In that [very] hour came the disciples to Jesus saying; Who then [the] greatest is in the kingdom of the heavens?
2 Te dongah camoe pakhat te a khue tih amih lakli ah a pai sak.
And having called to [Him] (Jesus *k) a child He set it in midst of them
3 Te phoeiah, “Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, camoe rhoek bangla na mael uh tih na om uh pawt atah vaan ram khuila na kun uh tlaih mahpawh.
and said; Amen I say to you; only unless you may turn and may become as the little children, certainly not shall you enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
4 Te dongah hekah camoe bangla amah tlarhoel hlang te tah vaan ram ah tanglue la om.
Whoever therefore (will humble *N+kO) himself as little child this, he is the greater in the kingdom of the heavens.
5 Te phoeiah kai kah ming neh hebang camoe pakhat aka doe te tah kai ni n'doe.
And who[ever] (if *NK+o) shall receive one little child (such *N+kO) in the name of Me, Me myself receives.
6 U long khaw kai aka tangnah camoe rhoek he pakhat khaw a khah atah, a rhawn ah laak phaklung a hoei tih tuili dung ah a buek te anih ham rhoei ngai.
Who[ever] then maybe may cause to stumble one of the little ones of these who are believing in Me myself, it is better for him that may be hung a millstone heavy (around *N+k+o) the neck of him, and he may be sunk in the depth of the sea.
7 Anunae thangkui kongah Diklai aih he. Thangkui te a om ham a kueknah om. Tedae anunae anih lamloh thangkui aka tung hlang aih te.
Woe to the world because of the causes of sin; Necessary [are] for (is *ko) to come the stumbling blocks, but woe to the man (that [one] *k) through whom the offense comes!
8 Te phoeiah na kut neh na kho loh nang n'khah atah te te tloek lamtah namah lamloh voei. Kut panit kho panit om tih dungyan hmai khuila m'voeih lakah a ngun a khaem la hingnah khuiah kun te nang ham hnothen la om. (aiōnios g166)
If now the hand of you or the foot of you causes to sin you, do cut off (it *N+KO) and do cast [it] from you; better for you it is to enter into life crippled or lame than two hands or two feet having to be cast into the fire eternal. (aiōnios g166)
9 Te phoeiah na mik loh nang n'khah atah te te koeih lamtah namah lamloh voei. Mik vang neh hingnah khuila kun te nang ham hnothen la om. Mik panit om tih hell hmai khuila voeih lakah tah. (Geenna g1067)
And if the eye of you causes to sin you, do gouge out it and do cast [it] from you; better for you it is one-eyed into life to enter than two eyes having to be cast into the hell of the fire. (Geenna g1067)
10 He camoe rhoek khuikah pakhat khaw na hnaep uh pawt ham ngaithuen uh. Nangmih ham kan thui, vaan ah amih kah puencawn rhoek loh vaan kah a pa maelhmai te a hmuh uh taitu lah ko.
do see [that] not may you despise one of the little ones of these; I say for to you that the angels of them in [the] heavens through all [times] behold the face of the Father of mine who [is] in [the] heavens.
11 Hlang capa tah aka hma rhoek khang ham ni ha pawk.
(came *KO) (for son of man to save those already perishing. *K)
12 Nangmih tah metlam na poek? Hlang pakhat te tu yakhat om coeng dae te khuikah pakhat loh poengdoe koinih sawmko pako te tlang ah a hlah vetih aka poeng te toem hamla cet mahpawt nim?
What you do think? If may happen a certain man [has] a hundred sheep and shall have gone astray one of them, surely (he will leave *N+kO) the ninety nine on the mountains, (and *no) having gone will seek the [one] going astray?
13 Te vaengah a hmuh hamla om coeng koinih ta, nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, aka poeng mueh sawmko pako lakah aka hma soah omngaih ngai.
And if he may happen to find it, Amen I say to you that he rejoices over it more than over the ninety nine which not gone astray.
14 Te dongah vaan kah na Pa hmaiah tah camoe rhoek pakhat khaw poci ham te a ngaih moenih.
Thus not it is [the] will of the Father (of you *NK+O) who [is] in [the] heavens that may perish (one *N+kO) of the little ones of these.
15 “Na manuca loh nang taengah a tholh atah cet lamtah namah neh anih laklo bueng ah mah anih te toeltham. Nang ol a yaak atah na manuca te na na coeng.
If now shall sin against you the brother of you, do go (and *k) do reprove him between you and him alone. If you he shall hear, you have gained the brother of you.
16 Tedae a hnatun pawt atah pakhat khaw panit khaw namah taengah khuen. Te daengah ni laipai rhoek panit pathum kah a ka loh olka te boeih a pai puei eh.
only however unless he shall hear, do take with you more one or two that upon [the] testimony of two witnesses or of three may be strengthened every declaration.
17 Tedae amih loh a altha atah hlangboel taengah thui. Te vaengah Hlangboel kah ol pataeng a altha atah nangmih taengah namtom neh mangmucoi bangla om sak.
If now he shall fail to listen to them, do tell [it] to the church. If now also to the church he shall fail to listen, he should be to you as the pagan and the tax collector.
18 Nangmih taengah rhep ka thui, diklai hmanah na pin uh te tah vaan ah a pin ni. Tedae diklai ah na hlam uh te tah vaan ah a hlam ni.
Amen I say to you; as much as (if *NK+o) you shall bind on the earth, will have been bound in heaven; and as much as if you shall loose on the earth, will have been loosed in heaven.
19 Te phoeiah nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, panit loh na kotluep tih diklai hmanah hno boeih te bih uh koinih, amih ham te vaan kah a pa loh a saii pah ni.
Again (Amen *NO) I say to you that if two shall agree (of *no) you on the earth concerning any matter that if they shall ask, it will be done for them by the Father of Mine who [is] in [the] heavens.
20 Panit pathum aka om te khaw kai ming neh a hum uh atah amih lakli ah pahoi ka om coeng,” a ti nah.
Where for are two or three assembled unto My name, there am I in [the] midst of them.
21 Te vaengah amah te Peter loh a paan tih, “Boeipa, ka manuca loh kai soah a tholh vaengah ka hlah vawptawp a ya?, voei rhih due a?” a ti nah.
Then having come Peter said to Him; Lord, how often will sin against me myself the brother of mine and I will forgive him? Up to seven times?
22 Jesuh loh, “Nang taengah voei rhih due pawt tih, sawmrhih parhih due ni ka ti.
Says to him Jesus; Not I say to you up to seven times but up to seventy times seven!
23 Te dongah vaan ram tah a sal rhoek taengah bitat soepsoei ham aka ngaih hlang manghai neh vai uh.
Because of this has become like the kingdom of the heavens to a man a king who desired to settle accounts with the servants of him.
24 Soepsoei ham a tong vaengah talen thawngrha dongkah laikung pakhat te a taengla a khuen.
When was beginning then he to settle (was brought to *NK+o) to him one a debtor of ten thousand talents.
25 Tedae anih loh thuung ham khaw kawn khueh pawh. Te dongah anih te a boeipa loh a yuu neh a ca rhoek, a khueh boeih te a yoih tih thuung ham ol a paek.
[When] not is having [anything] now he to pay he commanded him the master (of him *k) to be sold and the wife (of him *ko) and the children and all as much as (he has *N+kO) and payment to be made.
26 Te dongah sal te bakop tih manghai te a bawk. Te phoeiah, “Kai soah na thinsen sak mai lamtah nang te boeih kan thuung bitni,” a ti nah.
Having fallen down therefore the servant was bowing on his knees to him saying; (lord *ko) do have patience with (me myself, *NK+o) and all I will pay to you.
27 Te dongah boei loh a thinphat tih tekah sal te a loeih sak. Te phoeiah a laiba khaw a hlah pah.
Having been moved with compassion now the master of the servant, that [one] released him and the debt forgave him.
28 Tedae tekah sal tah cet tih a sal puei pakhat a hmuh. Te long te anih taengah denarii yakhat a ba. Te vaengah anih te a tuuk tih a khak phoeiah, “Pakhat na ba akhaw n'thuung laeh,” a ti nah.
Having gone out however the servant same found one of the fellow servants of him who was owing to him a hundred denarii, and having seized him he was throttling [him] saying; do pay (to me *k) (if *N+kO) any you owe.’
29 Te dongah a sal puei loh a yalh doela a hloep, “Kai soah na thinsen mai dae, nang te kan thuung bitni,” a ti nah.
Having fallen down therefore the fellow servant of him (into the feet of him *K) was begging him saying; do have patience with (me myself, *NK+o) and (all things *K) I will pay you.
30 Tedae ngaih pawt tih laiba te a thuung duela thongim khuiah a hlak tih a caeh tak.
But not he was willing, but having gone he cast him into prison until (what of him *ko) he may pay that which is being owed.
31 Aka om hno te a sal puei rhoek loh a hmuh dongah mat a khothae uh. Te dongah a boei taengla a pawk uh vaengah aka om hno te boeih a thui uh.
Having seen (therefore *N+kO) the fellow servants of him the [things] having taken place they were grieved deeply, and having gone they narrated to the master (of themselves *N+kO) all that having taken place.
32 Te vaengah a boei loh anih te a khue tih, ' Sal thae aw, kai nan hloep dongah na docanah boeih te kan hlah,
Then having called to him the master of him says to him; Servant evil, all the debt, that [one] I forgave you because you begged me.
33 kai loh nang kang rhen bangla na sal puei te na rhen ham a kuek van moenih a? 'a ti nah.
Surely it was necessary also you to have pitied the fellow servant of you as also I myself also I myself you pitied?
34 A boeipa loh kosi a hong tih anih te laiba boeih a thuung hlan atah phaepkung rhoek taengah a thak.
And having been angry the master of him delivered him to the jailers until that he may pay all which is being owed (to him. *ko)

Thus also the Father of Mine (heavenly *N+kO) will do to you only unless you may forgive each the brother of him from the heart of you (the trespasses of them. *K)
