Luke 20
1 Nikhat Yeshuan mipi thu ahil'a Kipana Thupha houin'a aseiphong laiyin, thempu pipui ho, hou danthu hil ho, chule upa ho cheng ahengah ahungun.
It came about one day, as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes came to him with the elders.
2 “Ipi thuneina noiya nangman hiche hohi nabol ham? Kon thaneina napeh ham?” tin ahung dong uve.
They spoke, saying to him, “Tell us by what authority you do these things, or who it is who gave you this authority.”
3 “Ken thudoh khat nanei masauvinge” tin adonbut in,
He answered and said to them, “I will also ask you a question, and you tell me.
4 “Twilutsah John thaneina chu van'a kon ham ahilouleh mihem a kon ham?” tin adongtai.
The baptism of John: was it from heaven or from men?”
5 Amaho akihouvun, “Van'a kon ahi tileu hen, ibol'a John natahsan lou u ham eiti kit diu.
They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Then why did you not believe him?'
6 Ahin iham tin mihem a kon ahi tileu hen, mipin songa eise kit diu, ajehchu John chu themgao ahi tia apom'u ahi” akitiuvin ahi.
But if we say, 'From men,' all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
7 Hijeh chun achainakeiyin kahepouve tin ahin donbut tauve.
So they answered that they did not know where it came from.
8 Chuin Yeshuan adonbut in, “Achutileh kenjong ipi thuneina noiya kabol ham ti naseipeh pouvinge,” ati. Lengpi-Lei Le Alei Lhouho Thulem
Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
9 Tun Yeshuan mipi lam angakit in hiche thusim hi aseipeh e: Mikhat hin lengpilei abol in, aloulhou miho komah apedoh in, gamdang khat ah kumsottah tham dingin achetai.
He told the people this parable, “A man planted a vineyard, rented it out to vine growers, and went into another country for a long time.
10 Lengpi ga khoptup phat alhin in, asohte khat ama chanding lan asol'e. Ahin loulhou ho chun sohpa chu ahin bolseuvin, avouvin, khutgoh keovin ahin lesol tauve.
At the appointed time he sent a servant to the vine growers, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard. But the vine growers beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.
11 Hijeh chun lou neipan soh dang khat asol kit in, ahivangin amahon ahinsujum kit un, avouvin, khutgoh keovin ahin lesol kit tauve.
He then sent yet another servant and they also beat him, treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.
12 Athumna pa asolkit in, chule ama jong chu ahin mavouvin adelmang tauve.
He also sent yet a third and they also wounded him, and threw him out.
13 “Ipi kabol ding hitam?” tin louneipa akihoulim in ahi. “Kahetai! Keiman kachapa kasahlut tah hi sol'inge. Tahbeh in jana hinpe nauvinte” ati.
So the lord of the vineyard said, 'What will I do? I will send my beloved son. Maybe they will respect him.'
14 Ahinlah, aloulhou hon achapa amu phat un, amaho akihou som'un, “Agoulo ding pa ahunge, thatdoh utin agoulo ding hi eiho chang tauhite!” akitiuve.
But when the vine growers saw him, they discussed among themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'
15 Hijeh chun ama chu lengpilei pam langah akaidoh un athat tauve. “Lengpilei neipa chun amaho chungah ipi bol'in te tia nangaitouvam?” tin Yeshuan ahin dongin,
They threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16 “Naseipeh unge–ama hungin tin loulhou ho chu athadoh a lengpilei chu midang asan sah ding ahitai” ati. “Iti khoh hitam chutobang thil aso jeng ding chu,” atiuvin athusei jaho chun ahin donbut uve.
He will come and destroy these vine growers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard it, they said, “May it never be!”
17 Yeshuan amaho chu aven aseitai, “Achutileh, Pathen Lekhabun ipi ati naham? Insa hon apaidoh u song chu Inning songpin apangtai,”
But Jesus looked at them, and said, “What is the meaning of that which is written: 'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone'?
18 “Hiche songpia kipal jouse chu ahal hal'a keh ding, chule achunga lhu chu ipi hijong leh chip ding ahi” ati.
Every one who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces. But on whomever it falls, it will crush.”
19 Hou danthuhil ho le thempu pipuihon Yeshua chu kintah a matding adeilheh un ahi ajeh chu athusim seichu amaho kiseina ahi ahin kihetdoh u ahitai–amaho chu loulhou agilou hochu hiuvah ahi. Ahivangin mipi ho lethuh na chu akichauvin ahi.
So the scribes and the chief priests sought to lay hands on him in that very hour, for they knew that he had spoken this parable against them. But they were afraid of the people.
20 Phat kilemchang vepum'in, alamkai houvin avelhi le ding miphalhem asol uve. Yeshuan seikhel khat neihen Rome gamvaipo komah amat nadingin kipedoh le ti agon u ahi.
Watching him carefully, they sent out spies who pretended to be righteous, that they might find fault with his speech, so as to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor.
21 Amahon “Houhil, Nangman adih chu nahil'a nasei ahi chule midang lunggel in nasuhboi joulou ahi keihon kaheuve.”
They asked him, saying, “Teacher, we know that you say and teach rightly, and are not influenced by anyone's position, but you teach the truth about the way of God.
22 “Tun neiseipeh un–Caesar henga kai pehding hi dih hai dihlou ham?” tin adong tauve.
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
23 Aman alungthim bol'u ahichu ahen aseitai,
But Jesus understood their craftiness, and said to them,
24 “Rome te sumpum khat neivetsah'un. Koi lim le thucheng kijih ham achunga chu?” tin adongtai. Amahon adonbut un, “Caesar a ahi,” atiuve.
“Show me a denarius. Whose image and name is on it?” They said, “Caesar's.”
25 Aman asei kit in, “Aphai ahileh, Caesar a chu Caesar peuvin lang Pathen a chu Pathen peuvin,” ati.
He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.”
26 Chuti chun amahon mipi masanga athu seikhel'a kipal sah ding atiu chu ajou tapouve. Chusang chun, amahon athu donbut hochu kidang asauvin, athipchet tauve.
They were not able to find fault with what he had said in front of the people, but marveling at his answer, they were silent.
27 Chuin Yeshua chu Sadducee–hou lamkai, thokitna aumpoi tihon kimupi din ahin naiyun ahi.
When some of the Sadducees came to him, the ones who say that there is no resurrection,
28 Hiche thudoh hi adongun ahi: “Houhil, Mosen dan khat eipeuvin, mikhat chu athia ajinu adalhah'a chaneilou ahileh, asopipan hiche meithai chu akichenpi ding, cha aneipi ding hichun asopipa min apoh ding ahi.
they asked him, saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's brother dies, having a wife, and being childless, the man should take the brother's wife, and have a child for his brother.
29 Aphai, tun tekahnan ucha pasal sagi aume. A'upen ajineiyin cha neilouvin athitai.
There were seven brothers and the first took a wife, and died childless,
30 Hijeh chun ani napan akichenpin, ama jong athitai.
and the second as well.
31 Chuin athumna pan akichenpi kit in ahi. Hiti hin asagiuvin achelhan abon'uva chaneilou ahitauve.
The third took her, and likewise the seven also left no children, and died.
32 Achainan numeinu jong athi tai.
Afterward the woman also died.
33 Hijeh chun neiseipeh un, thokitna'a chu koi ji a pang ding ham? Ajeh chu asagiuva chu akichenpi cheh u anahi!”
In the resurrection then, whose wife will she be? For the seven had her as their wife.”
Jesus said to them, “The sons of this world marry and are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
35 Ahin, ahung lhung ding khang'ah, athilah a kona thoudoh dinga lom ho chu akicheng tapouvin chule chen jong akichensah tapouve. (aiōn g165)
But those who are regarded as worthy in that age to receive the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
36 Chule amaho thikit talou diu, hitia chu amaho van'a Vantilte tobang hidiu ahitai. Amaho Pathen chate ahitauvin chule thoukit chate ahitauve.
Neither can they die anymore, for they are equal to the angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
37 “Ahin tun, mithi thoukit mong ding hinam ti thudol ah”—Mose jengin jong nanglah meikong thudol asut chun avetsah in ahi. Abraham, Isaac, le Jacob thijou phat sottah jou nungin, Pakai chu Abraham Pathen, Isaac Pathen, Jacob Pathen tia akou ahi.
But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the place concerning the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.
38 “Hijeh a chu ama chu ahingho Pathen ahin, athiho a hilou ahi, ajeh chu amaho abonchauva ama'a hingah ahitauve.”
Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, because all live to him.”
39 Chukom mun'a ding, hou danthu hil ho phabep khat chun, “Nasei hoiye, houhil” atiuve.
Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you have answered well.”
40 Chule koiman thudoh adong ngam tapouvin ahi.
For they did not dare ask him any more questions.
41 Chuin Yeshuan thudoh toh thon hiche hi aseipeh kit e, “Ipi jeh a Messiah chu David chapa kiti ding ham?”
Jesus said to them, “How do they say that the Christ is David's son?
42 Ajeh chu David amatah in jong Labu'a anajihlut ahi: “Pakai in ka Pakai jah'a, Kajet lam'a kijana mun'ah touvin,”
For David himself says in the Book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, 'Sit at my right hand,
43 Namelmate kasuh nem a, Nakengto chotpha'a kakoi masang sen, ati.
until I make your enemies your footstool.'
44 “David in Messiah chu Pakai, tia akou leh, Messiah chu iti David chapa hithei ding ham?” ati.
David therefore calls the Christ 'Lord', so how is he David's son?”
45 Chuin mihonpi jah dingin, aseijuite kom langah akiheiyin aseitai,
In the hearing of all the people he said to his disciples,
46 “Hiche hou danthu hil hoa kon hin kichih theiyun! Ajeh chu amahon vonhoi tahtah kivon a kailhang lah dunga min chibai aboh diu adeiyun, chule kikhopna in le golvah na mun ho ah touna mun thupi lai lai aholjiuve.
“Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and love special greetings in the marketplaces, and chief seats in the synagogues, and chief places at feasts.
47 Ahin, amahon jahcha louhel in meithai ho anei agou uva kona lheplhah ding agel uvin, chule kilhagao misah tah bangin taona sottah tah japi lah'a amang jiuvin ahi; hiche jeh'a hi amaho hatah a bolgimna changding ahiuve,” ati. Meithainu Sumto
They also devour widows' houses, and for a show they make long prayers. Men like this will receive greater condemnation.”
