Luke 16
1 Jesus told his disciples this story. “There was once a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting what belonged to his master.
Yeshuan hiche thusim hi aseijuite aseipeh e: “Mihaotah khat ana um'in, aman neiching khat ima ma vesuiya anganse aneiye, ahin aneichin na ah akitah poi ti thulamleng ahunge.
2 So the rich man called in his manager, and asked him, ‘What's this I hear about you? Bring in your accounts, because you won't be continuing as manager.’
Hijeh chun apansah pan ama chu akouvin aseitai, ‘Ipi ham nathu kajah hi? Na neichin ho sutup in lang neihin pen ajeh chu nachungthu kisei ding ahitai’” ati.
3 The manager said to himself, ‘Now what will I do since my master is going to fire me from my job? I'm not strong enough to dig, and I'm ashamed to beg.
Neichingpa akingaiton, “Tua ipi kabol ding?” tin akihoulim'in, “Kapakai pan la eihaisah ahitan, lei lai dingla katha ahatpon, chule thum ding la hibanga kikiletsah'a,
4 Oh, I know what I'm going to do so that when I'm sacked as manager people will make me welcome in their homes.’
aphai, eihaisah tengleh loi le pai tampi kaneiya amahon a-in'a eilhunsah nadiuvin hitin bol inge” ati.
5 So he invited all those who were in debt to his master to come and see him. He asked the first one, ‘How much do you owe my master?’
Hijeh chun apansah pa sumba jouse chu ahungkhom uva athu seitoh ahina din akoukhom sohtai. Amasapa jah'a, “Ijat nabat ham?” atileh,
6 The man replied, ‘A hundred units of oil.’ He said to him, ‘Sit down quickly. Take your bill, and change it to fifty.’
mipa chun adonbut in, “Keiman olive thao twipai dim jaget kabai” ati. Chuin neichingpan aseipeh in, “Aman kijihna lekha hi kilah loiyin lang twipai jali jih in” ati.
7 Then he said to another, ‘How much do you owe?’ The man replied, ‘A hundred units of wheat.’ He said to him, ‘Take your bill and change it to eighty.’
Ahileh nangin ijat nabat em? tin anina pa adonge. Keiman suhlou chang lhuh sangkhat kabai, tin ahin donbut'e. Neiching pan aseiyin, hin, lekha hi kilah in lang lhuh jaget in jih in, ati.
8 The rich man commended his dishonest manager for his cunning idea. The children of this world are more cunning towards one another than are the children of light. (aiōn g165)
Mihao pa chun chuche chondih lou neichingpan chingthei tah a abol chu apahcha tan ahi. Adih ahi, hiche vannoi chaten avel uva ho toh kipol ding dan hi khovah chate sangin achingjouve. (aiōn g165)
9 I tell you, use the wealth of this world to make friends for yourselves so that when it's gone, you'll be welcomed into an eternal home. (aiōnios g166)
Kijildoh ding chu hiche ahi: Vannoiya nagouthil ho se hi midang phatchomna le jol le gol kisem nan mangin. Chuteng, nalei gouthil ho jouse abeisoh teng cheho chun tonsot in'a dinga nanalem diu ahi. (aiōnios g166)
10 If you can be trusted with very little you can also be trusted with much; if you are dishonest with very little you will also be dishonest with much.
Nangho thil neocha chunga nakitah ule, thil lentah ho chunga jong nakitah diu ahi. Amavang thil neocha chunga nakitahlou ule, mopohna lentah ho chunga jong kitahlou ding nahiuve.
11 So if you can't be trusted when it comes to worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?
Chuleh leiset gouthil chunga tahsan naum louleh, kon vangou dihtah chunga natahsan dingu ham?
12 And if you can't be trusted with what belongs to someone else, who will trust you with what is yours?
Chuleh midang thil chunga nakitah louleh ipi jeh a nangma thil chunga nakitahsan ding ham?
13 No servant can obey two masters. Either he will hate one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You can't serve both God and Money.”
“Koiman pakai ni sohna atongkop theipoi. Ajeh chu nangman khat namuda a khat nangailut tum ding ahi; khat dinga nakiphal theng'a khat nadonda thei ahi. Nanghon Pathen le sum sohna tongkhom thei pouvin nate,” ati.
14 The Pharisees, who loved money, heard what Jesus said and laughed at him.
Pharisee ho, sum ngailu dehset hon, ajasoh keiyun ama chu anelpeh un ahi.
15 But Jesus told them, “You appear pious to people, but God knows what you're thinking. What people value highly is detested by God.
Chuin aman amaho jah'a aseitai, “Jalah'a miho mitmu'a michonpha nahinom, ahin Pathen in nalungthim ahei.” Hiche vannoi miten ajabol chu Pathen mitmua thet umtah ahi.
16 What was written in the law and the prophets lasted until John. From then on the good news of the kingdom of God is being spread, and everyone is forcing their way in.
Twilutsah John phatlai chan'a chu, Mose dan le themgao ho thuhil chu nakai hoi leuva pang anahi. Ahin, tun Pathen Lenggam Kipana thupha chu seiphongin aumtan, chule mijouse lutding athanom in ahi.
17 However, it's easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for the smallest point of the Law to disappear.
Ahivangin danthu chu apanna umtalou tina ahipoi. Van le lei amanthah ding hi Pathen danthu neopen khat kilekhup ding sanga gamchenga baijo ahi.
18 Any man who divorces his wife and marries someone else commits adultery, and a man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
“Vetsahnan, mikhat chun ajinu ada'a midang khat akichenpi le ajong'ah ahi. Chuleh koihileh ajipan ahindasa numei kichenpi jong chu ajong'ah ahi” ati.
19 Once there was a man who was rich. He wore purple clothes and fine linen, and enjoyed a luxurious life.
Yeshuan aseiye, “Mihaotah khat, ponsandup le tupet ponnem kisil'a loupitah'a kivon le niseh a nomsatah'a umkhat anaum in ahi.
20 A beggar named Lazarus used to sit at his gate, covered in sores,
Akelkot phunga chun Lazarus kiti tiphah natna dimset, mivaicha khat aum jin ahi.
21 longing to eat the leftovers from the rich man's table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.
Chutia Lazarus jong mihaopa dokhanga an lhajah ho ducha'a aumlaiyin, uicha ho ahung jiuvin atiphah namun ho chu ahung leh jiuve.
22 Then the beggar died, and angels carried him away to be with Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried.
Achainan, mivaichapa chu athitan chule Vantilte Abraham koma um ding'in apotauve. Mihaopa jong athin avui tauve,
23 In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham in the far distance, with Lazarus beside him. (Hadēs g86)
chule alhagao chu mithi ho lah'a achetai. Chua athoh gentheina mun achun, Abraham gamlatah a aum chule Lazarus akoma atou chu amun ahi. (Hadēs g86)
24 ‘Father Abraham,’ he called out, ‘Have mercy on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I'm burning in agony.’
Mihaopa chu ahung pengjah'in, ‘Hepa Abraham, themkhat neilungset in! Lazarus hinsol in lang akhutjung twiyah hin delut henlang kalei hung sudap hen. Keima hiche meikong lah a hin kahesoh lheh jeng'e,’” ati.
25 But Abraham replied, ‘My son, remember that you enjoyed the good things of life, while Lazarus had a very poor life. Now he is here being comforted, while you suffer in torment.
Ahin Abraham'in amapa jah'a aseiyin, chapa, geldoh in, nangman nahinlai sungin nadei jouse naneisoh keiyin chule Lazarus in ima ananeipoi. Hijeh a chu tua hi ama hikom mun'a nomtah'a kiumsah a nangman hesoh nathoh ahitai.
26 Apart from that, there's a great gulf that stretches between us and you. Nobody who wants to cross from here to you can do so, and nobody can cross from there over to us.’
Chule chuche tilouvin jong, ikikah uva hin eikhen uvah onghom lentah aume. Koiman hikom mun'a pat'a apal galkai thei lou, chule chua pat'a jong keiho kom lang koiman apal galkal thei lou ahi, ati.
27 The rich man said, ‘Then Father, I beg you, please send him to my father's house.
Chuin mihaopan asei kit in, Lungset tah in, Hepa Abraham, kapa in beh'a gasol in.
28 For I have five brothers and he can warn them so that they don't end up here in this place of torment.’
Ajeh chu keiman sopi pasal nga kaneiye, chule amachun hikom thoh gentheina muna ahung lou nadiuva aga gihsal ding kadeiye, ati.
29 But Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the prophets. They should listen to them.’
“Ahin Abraham'in aseipeh in, ‘Mose le Themgaohon agihsal nauve. Nasopi hon chua ipi asut'u hin kisimdoh nauvinte,’ atipeh e.
30 ‘No, father Abraham,’ said the man. ‘But they would repent if someone went to them from the dead!’
Mihaopan adonbut kit'in, ‘Ahipoi, Hepa Abraham! Koiham khat athilah'a kona akisol le, achonset nauva kona lungheina aneidiu chule Pathen lam'a kihei diu ahi,’ ati.
31 Abraham said to him, ‘If they won't listen to Moses and the prophets, they won't be convinced even if someone returns from the dead.’”
Ahivangin Abraham'in aseikit in, ‘Amahon Mose le Themgaoho thu angailou uleh, athilah'a konin khat thoudoh jongleh ngaideh pouvinte,’” ati.
