Matthew 16
1 Pharisee te Sadducee te pawlkhat taw Jesus kung ah hongpai uh a, maw a zon nop uh man in tungsang musakna laksak hi.
The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
2 Jesus in amate tung ah, Nitak sang in van hong san le, khuapha tu hi.
But he answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’
3 Taciang zingsang ciang in, van hong san in khua hong niim le khuasia tu hi, ci nu hi. Maw no a ki hitheamsak te, van en in khuahun omdan tu telthei napi, hun le ni i musakna te telthei ngawl nu ziam?
In the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but you can’t discern the signs of the times!
4 Mi ngilo le tatsia tate in musakna zong napi; kamsang Jonah musakna simngawl a dang ki pia ngawl tu hi, ci in zo kik hi. Tua zawkciang amate nusia in paisan hi.
An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and there will be no sign given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” He left them and departed.
5 Nungzuite ngalkhat ah hong thet uh ciang, anluum ken tu mangil uh hi.
The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.
6 Taciang in Jesus in, Pharisee te le Sadducee te i tol pan in kidawm tavun, ci hi.
Yeshua said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
7 Amate in anluum i ken ngawl hang hi, ci in amate kikum uh hi.
They reasoned amongst themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”
8 Tua thu Jesus in a heak ciang in, Maw no upna no te, anluum na ken ngawl uh hang hi, ci in banghang in kikum nu ziam?
Yeshua, perceiving it, said, “Why do you reason amongst yourselves, you of little faith, because you have brought no bread?
9 Anlum nga sia mihing tul nga in a neak zawkciang a val bawm bangza tawm nu ziam, ci he ngawl nu ziam?
Don’t you yet perceive or remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up,
10 Anlum sali mihing tul li in a neakzawkciang, a val bawm bangza tawm kik, ci sia phawk nawn ngawl nu ziam?
or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
11 Pharisee le Saducee te tol kidawm vun kong ci ciang, anluum thu ka son nop na hi ngawl hi, ci banghang in tel thei ngawl nu ziam? ci hi.
How is it that you don’t perceive that I didn’t speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
12 Tasiaciang a nungzui te in, anluum sung a tol kidawm tu a cinopna hi ngawl a, Pharisee le Saducee te hilna hi zaw, ci sia tel kik hi.
Then they understood that he didn’t tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
13 Jesus in Ceasaria Philippi khua kiim a thet uh ciang, a nungzui te kung ah, Ngual in mihing Tapa sia kua hong ci uh ziam? ci in dong hi.
Now when Yeshua came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”
14 Amate in, pawlkhat te in tuiphumpa John: pawlkhat te in Elijah; pawlkhat te in Jeremiah, a hibale kamsang khat papo, hong ci hi, ci uh hi.
They said, “Some say Yochanan the Immerser, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
15 Jesus in, No ma na e, keima sia kua hi nong ci uh ziam? ci in dong hi.
He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
16 Simon Peter in zo a, Nangma sia a nungta Pathian Tapa, Christ na hihi, ci hi.
Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”
17 Tasiaciang Jesus in, Jonah tapa Simon awng, thuphatoai na hihi: banghangziam cile, hi thu sia mihing cile sa le thisan in hong hesak thei ngawl hi, vantung a om Ka Pa in hong hesak hi.
Yeshua answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
18 Keima in kong son hi, nang sia Peter ni hi, hi suangpi tung ah ka pawlpi ka phut tu hi; taciang hell ngam kongpi te in a zo zo batu hi. (Hadēs g86)
I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Sheol will not prevail against it. (Hadēs g86)
19 Vantung kumpingam tawtang te kong pia tu hi: leitung ah na hen theampo vantung ah zong ki hen tu hi: leitung ah na tha theampo vantung ah zong ki tha tu hi, ci hi.
I will give to you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven; and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.”
20 Ama sia Christ kici Jesus a hi na sia kuama a son ngawl natu in nungzui te vaitha hi.
Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Yeshua the Messiah.
21 Tua hun panin, Jesus in a nungzui te tung ah, Jerusalem a pai natu thu, ulian te, thiampi lian te le thukhamhil te hang in a thuak tu tampi te le ki that tu a, ni thum ni ciang a thawkik natu thu te son kipan hi.
From that time, Yeshua began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.
22 Tasiaciang Peter in Jesus sia samtuam in tei hi, Topa awng, hi thu sia nangma taw ki khuala tahen a: na tung ah hong theng heak tahen, ci hi.
Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.”
23 Ahihang Jesus in le-et in, Peter kung ah, Satan, nang ka nung ah om in, kei hong khak in hongliksak na hihi: banghangziam cile Pathian thu sang in, mihing te thu kinzaw ni hi, ci hi.
But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of men.”
24 Tua zawkciang Jesus in a nungzui te kung ah, A kuamapo ka nung hong zui nuam peuma, ama le ama ki nial hen a, ama thinglamte pua in, hong zui tahen.
Then Yeshua said to his disciples, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
25 Banghangziam cile, kuamapo in, ama nuntakna a hun nuam sia sum tu a: keima atu in a nuntakna a sum peuma nuntakna mu tu hi.
For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.
26 Mihing khat in leitung theampo a nga zong in, a tha nuntakna a sum le bang phattuamna om ziam? mihing in a tha nuntakna bang taw theak thei tu ziam?
For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?
27 Mihing Tapa sia a Pa vangletna le Ama vantungmi te taw hongpai tu a; khatsim i a sep bang tek in thaman pia tu hi.
For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds.
28 A tatak kong ci ciang, hi lai ah a om pawlkhat te, mihing Tapa Ama kumpingam sung ah hongpaikik na mu uh dong thina a tep ngawl tu te omhi, ci hi.
Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom.”
