Matthai 21
1 Jerusalem taengla a yoei uh vaengah Olives tlang kah Bethphage la pawk uh. Te vaengah Jesuh loh a hnukbang panit te a tueih tih,
And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,
2 “Na rhaldan kah kho la cet rhoi lamtah muli-marhang neh a taengah a ca a pael te kawl na hmuh rhoi ni. Hlam rhoi lamtah kai taengla hang khuen rhoi.
Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find a donkey tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me.
3 Khat khat loh nangmih rhoi te khoem n'thui sak atah, 'Boeipa loh a ngoe,’ ti nah. Te vaengah koe han hlah bitni,” a ti nah.
And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
4 He he a om daengah ni tonghma loh a thui te a soep eh.
All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
5 “Zion nu te thui pah, na manghai tah nang taengla ha pawk coeng te, muli-marhang so neh laak tal ca soah khaw muelhtuet la ngol,” a ti.
Tell ye the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon a donkey, and a colt the foal of a donkey.
6 Hnukbang rhoi te cet rhoi tih Jesuh kah a thuinuet bangla a saii rhoi.
And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,
7 Muli-marhang neh a ca te a khuen rhoi tih himbai a tloeng uh thil phoeiah a ngoldoelh thil.
And brought the donkey, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon.
8 Te vaengah hlangping a kumngai loh longpuei ah a himbai te a phaih uh. A tloe rhoek loh thing kah a hlaeng te a hlaek uh tih longpuei ah a phaih uh.
And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.
9 Te phoeiah a hmaila aka lamhma neh a hnuk kah aka vai hlangping loh pang uh tih, “David capa tah Hosanna, Boeipa ming neh aka pawk tah a yoethen pai, sangkoek ah Hosanna,” a ti uh.
And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.
10 Jerusalem la a kun vaengah khopuei boeih hinghuen tih, “Anih he unim,” a ti uh.
And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?
11 Te vaengah hlangping loh, “Anih he Galilee Nazareth lamkah tonghma Jesuh ni,” a ti uh.
And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.
12 Jesuh te bawkim khuila kun tih bawkim kah hno yoi rhoek neh hno lai rhoek te boeih a haek, tangkathung rhoek kah caboei neh vahu aka yoi rhoek kah ngoltlang te a palet pah.
And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,
13 Te phoeiah amih te, “Ka im tah, ' Thangthuinah im la khue saeh,’ tila a daek coeng. Tedae nangmih loh dingca rhoek kah a khuirhung la na khueh uh,” a ti nah.
And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.
14 Te vaengah amah te mikdael rhoek neh aka khaem rhoek loh Bawkim ah a paan uh tih amih te a hoeih sak.
And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.
15 Tedae khobae rhambae la a saii neh camoe rhoek loh bawkim ah pang tih, “David Capa tah Hosanna,” a ti uh khosoihham rhoek neh cadaek rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah a yakdam uh.
And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David; they were sore displeased,
16 Te dongah Jesuh te, “He rhoek loh a thui te na yaak a?” a ti nah. Te vaengah Jesuh loh amih te, “Ue, na tae uh mahnim? “' Cahmang neh cacun rhoek kah ka lamkah loh thangthennah na rhoekbah coeng,’ a ti ta,” a ti nah.
And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?
17 Te phoeiah amih te a hnoo phoeiah khopuei lamkah loh Bethany la cet tih pahoi rhaeh.
And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he lodged there.
18 Khopuei la yueya a bal vaengah tah a bungpong.
Now in the morning as he returned into the city, he hungered.
19 Long ah thaibu kung pakhat a hmuh tih a taengla a paan. Tedae a hnah bueng mueh atah a kung dongah bang khaw hmu pawh. Te dongah, “Dungyan duela nang kah a thaih om boel saeh,” a ti nah tih thaibu kung tah pahoi koh. (aiōn g165)
And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away. (aiōn g165)
20 Hnukbang rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah a ngaihmang uh tih, “Metlamlae thaibu kung tlek a koh ca,” a ti uh.
And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away!
21 Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui, tangnah na khueh uh tih na boelhkhoeh pawt atah, thaibu kung bueng te na saii uh pawt vetih hekah tlang he phoek tih tuili khuila hlak ham pataeng na ti nah uh koinih coeng tangloeng ngawn ni.
Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.
22 Te phoeiah thangthuinah neh vawpvawp na bih uh te tah tangnah neh na dang uh ni,” a ti nah.
And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
23 Bawkim khuila Jesuh pawk tih a thuituen vaengah khosoihham rhoek neh pilnam kah a ham rhoek loh anih te a paan uh. Te phoeiah, “Mebang saithainah nen lae saii he? Te phoeiah hekah saithainah he u long nang m'paek?“a ti na uh.
And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?
24 Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Nangmih te ol pakhat kan dawt eh. Te te kai taengah nan thui uh atah he rhoek he mebang saithainah neh ka saii khaw nangmih taengah kan thui bitni.
And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
25 Baptisma Johan tah me lamkah lae ana om? Vaan lamkah a? Hlang lamkah a?” a ti nah. Te vaengah te rhoek loh amamih khuiah a poek uh tih, “'Vaan lamkah,’ n'ti uh koinih mamih te, 'Balae tih anih te na tangnah uh pawh,’ a ti veh.
The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why did ye not then believe him?
26 Tedae hlang lamkah n'ti uh koinih hlangping he koek n'rhih uh. Hlang boeih loh Johan te tonghma la a khueh uh,” a ti uh.
But if we shall say, Of men; we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet.
27 Te dongah Jesuh te a doo uh tih, “Ka ming uh pawh,” a ti uh. Tedae Jesuh loh amih te, “Mebang saithainah neh ka saii he khaw nangmih taengah ka thui mahpawh.
And they answered Jesus, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
28 Nangmih ta metlam na poek? Hlang pakhat loh a ca panit a khueh. A cuek te a paan tih, “Ka ca tihnin ah dum ah cet lamtah saii ne,” a ti nah.
But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard.
29 Te vaengah te long te a doo tih, 'Ka ngaih pawh,’ a ti nah. Tedae a hnukkhueng ah yut tih koep cet.
He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went.
30 Pakhat te a paan tih lamhma kah banngla a ti nah. Te long tah a doo tih, 'Ka cet ni boeipa,’ a ti nah dae cet pawh.
And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not.
31 Te rhoi panit khuiah ulae a napa kah kongaih aka saii,” a ti nah. Te vaengah, “Lamhma loh,” a ti na uh. Jesuh loh amih te, “Nangmih taengah rhep ka thui, mangmucoi neh hlanghalh rhoek tah Pathen ram khuila nangmih lakah lamhma uh ni.
Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
32 Johan loh duengnah longpuei neh nangmih taengla ha pawk dae anih te na tangnah uh moenih. Tedae mangmucoi rhoek neh hlanghalh rhoek loh anih te a tangnah. Nangmih loh na hmuh uh coeng dae anih te tangnah ham a tloihsoi ah khaw na yut uh moenih.
For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.
33 A tloe nuettahnah he hnatun uh lah. Lokung hlang pakhat om tih anih loh dum a tue. Te te vongtung a tung tih a khuiah misurrhom a too, imsang khaw a sak. Te phoeiah lotawn rhoek a phaam sak tih vik yiin.
Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:
34 A thaih tue a yoei vaengah a sal rhoek te a thaih doe sak ham lotawn rhoek taengla a tueih.
And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.
35 Te vaengah lotawn rhoek loh lokung kah sal rhoek te a tuuk uh tih, pakhat te a boh uh, pakhat te a ngawn uh, pakhat te a dae uh.
And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
36 Te phoeiah sal tloe te lamhma kah lakah muep a tueih dae amih te khaw a saii uh tangkhuet.
Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.
37 A hnukkhueng ah a capa te amih taengla a tueih tih, “Ka capa tah a yahnah uh bitni,” a ti.
But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.
38 Tedae lotawn rhoek loh a capa te a hmuh uh vaengah amamih te, “Anih tah rhopangkung la om, Halo, anih he ngawn uh sih lamtah a rho he rhawt pa uh sih,” a ti uh.
But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.
39 Te dongah anih te a tuuk uh phoeiah misurdum lamkah loh voelh a haek uh tih a ngawn uh.
And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.
40 Te dongah misurdum kah boeipa te a pawk vaengah lotawn rhoek te metlam a saii eh?” a ti nah.
When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
41 Te vaengah, “Amih boethae duet rhoek te a poci sak vetih misurdum te a tloe kah lotawn rhoek a phaam sak ni. Te rhoek long tah a thaih te amah tue vaengah a taengla a thuung ni,” a ti uh.
They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
42 Jesuh loh amih te, “Cacim khuiah na tae uh mahnim? Im sa rhoek loh a hnawt uh lungto te imkil lu la poeh. He tah Boeipa lamkah loh poeh tih mamih mikhmuh ah a khuet la om ta.
Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
43 Te dongah nangmih taengah kan thui, “Pathen kah ram tah nangmih taeng lamkah loh a khuen vetih a thaih aka saii namtom taengah a paek ni
Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
44 Te dongah hekah lungto soah aka tla tah tlawt vetih, lungto loh a tlak thil te khaw amah ni aka tip eh,” a ti nah.
And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
45 Tedae khosoihham rhoek neh Pharisee rhoek loh a yaak uh vaengah, anih kah nuettahnah te amih kawng ni a thui tila a ming uh.
And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
46 Te dongah anih te tuuk hamla a mae uh dae Jesuh te tonghma la a khueh uh dongah hlangping te a rhih uh.
But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet.
