< Matthew 13 >

1 The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.
Te hnin ah Jesuh tah im lamloh cet tih tuili kaengah ngol.
2 And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.
Te vaengah hlangping rhoek tah anih taengah muep tingtun uh. Te dongah amah tah lawng khuiah ngol hamla kun. Tedae hlangping tah tuikaeng ah boeih pai.
3 And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;
Te phoeiah amih taengah nuettahnah neh muep a thui tih, “Cangti aka haeh tah cangti haeh la cet ne,
4 And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:
Cangti a haeh vaengah a ngen te longpuei ah tla. Te dongah vaa loh a paan tih a kueh.
5 Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:
Angen tah lungrhong dongah tla tih, laimen muep a om pawt dongah tlek poe. Tedae laimen a dung la aom moenih.
6 And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.
A yung a om pawt dongah khomik ha thoeng vaengah tah a kaeng tih koh.
7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:
Angen tah hling khuiah tla tih hling te a rhoeng vaengah tah cang te a huep.
8 But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.
Tedae a ngen tah lai then dongah tla tih a thaih, a ngen yakhat, a ngen sawmrhuk, a ngen tah sawmthum la thaii.
9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Hna aka khueh loh ya saeh,” a ti nah.
10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
Te phoeiah hnukbang rhoek loh a paan uh tih, “Balae tih nuettahnah neh amih na voek?,” a ti nauh.
11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Vaan ram kah olhuep ming sak ham nangmih taengah m'paek coeng dae te rhoek taengah a paek moenih.
12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.
Aka khueh te tah a paek thil vetih a coih pah ni. Tedae aka khueh pawt te a khueh duen pataeng te a taeng lamkah loh a lat pah ni.
13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
Te dongah ni amih taengah nuettahnah neh ka thui pah. A hmuh uh dae hmat uh pawh. A hnatun uh dae ya uh pawt tih hmuhming uh pawh.
14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
Te dongah Isaiah kah tonghma ol te amih taengah, ' Hnavue neh na yaak uh vetih na hmuhming uh loengloeng mahpawh. Na hmuh tah na hmuh uh vetih na hmat uh loengloeng mahpawh.
15 For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
Pilnam kah thinko he tah a talh pah coeng. Te dongah hna neh a hnatun uh tloel tih a mik khaw a him uh. A mik neh a hmuh uh tih, hna neh a yaak uh, a thinko neh hmuhming uh tih ha bal uh koinih amih te ka hoeih sak ni,” a ti te soep coeng.
16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
Tedae nangmih kah mik loh a hmuh tih na hna loh a yaak dongah a yoethen.
17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
Rhep kan thui, tonghma rhoek boeih neh hlang dueng rhoek loh na hmuh uh te hmuh a hue uh dae hmu uh pawh, na yaak uh te yaak ham akhaw a yaak uh moenih.
18 Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.
“Te dongah nangmih loh cangti aka tuh kah nuettahnah he hnatun uh.
19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.
Ram kah olka te a yaak dae aka hmuhming pawt boeih tah, rhaithae loh ha pawk atah a thinko ah tuh tangtae a poel a yoe pah. Te tah longpuei kah a haeh coeng te ni.
20 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;
Lungrhong sokah a haeh te tah ol te a yaak vaengah omngaihnah neh tlek aka doe ni.
21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.
Tedae a khuiah a yung a khueh pawt dongah kolkalh ni a om. Tedae olka kongah hnaemtaeknah neh phacipphabaem a om vaengah voeng a khah.
22 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
Hling laklikah a tuh tah ol te aka ya la om dae dilai kah mawntangnah neh khuehtawn kah hmilhmaknah loh ol te a thing tih a tlongtlai la poeh. (aiōn g165)
23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
Tedae lai then sokah a tuh tah ol te a yaak tih aka hmuhming la om. Anih tah a ngen yakhat, a ngen sawmrhuk, a ngen thumkip la vuei tih thaihtak,” a ti nah.
24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
A tloe nuettahnah te amih a paek tih, “Vaan ram tah amah lo ah cangti then aka tuh hlang neh vai uh.
25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
Tedae hlang a ih vaengah a rhal ha pawk tih, cang lak ah paitaang a haeh phoeiah vik cet.
26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
Khopol te muem tih a vuei a thaih vaengah tah paitaang te khaw phoe.
27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?
Te vaengah a sal rhoek loh a kungmah te a paan uh tih, “Boeipa, na lo ah cangti then na haeh moenih a? Tedae paitaang aka om he me lamkah lae?” a ti nah.
28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
Te vaengah amih te, “He tah rhal hlang loh a saii,” a ti nah. Te dongah sal rhoek loh a taengah, “Ka cet uh vetih te te yoep sak ham na ngaih a?” a ti na uh.
29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
Tedae amah loh, ' Pawh, paitaang te na yoep uh vaenngah cang neh rhenten na phu uh ve?
30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
Cangah duela bok rhoeng sak mai. Cangah tue ah cangat rhoek te, ' Paitaang te lamhma la yoep uh lamtah hoeh hamla a pok la pok uh, tedae cang te tah kai kah khai khuila khoem uh, ' ka ti nah bitni,’ a ti nah,” te a thui pah.
31 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:
A tloe nuettahnah amih a paek tih, “Vaan ram tah mukang mu phek la om, te te hlang loh a loh tih a lo ah a tue.
32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.
Te te a mu aka om boeih lakah yiit. Tedae a rhoeng vaengah toian aka om boeih lakah tanglue tih thing la poeh. Te daengah ni vaan kah vaa loh ha pawk uh tih a hlaeng dongah bu a tuk,” a ti nah.
33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
A tloe nuettahnah neh amih te, “Vaan ram tah tolrhu phek la om. Te te huta loh a loh tih vaidam khoi thum khuiah a hlum vaengah boeih a rhoi sak,” a ti nah.
34 All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:
Jesuh loh he rhoek boeih he nuettahnah neh hlangping taengah a thui. Nuettahnah pawt atah amih taengah ol a thui moenih.
35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
Te daengah ni tonghma loh a phong, “Nuettahnah neh ka ka ka ong vetih Diklai a tongnah lamloh a thuhphah te ka phoe ni,” a ti te a soep eh.
36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
Hlangping te a tueih phoeiah im khuila kun. Te vaengah a hnukbang rhoek loh a taengla a paan uh tih, “Lo kah paitaang nuettahnah te kaimih ham thuicaih lah,” a ti nah.
37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
Te vaengah Jesuh loh a doo tih, “Cangti then aka tuh tah hlang capa ni.
38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
Lohma tah Diklai ni. Te phoeiah cangti then tah ram kah a ca rhoek ni. Tedae paitaang tah rhaithae kah a ca rhoek ni.
39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the age; and the reapers are the angels. (aiōn g165)
Te te aka haeh rhal te tah rhaithae ni. Cangah tue tah lunglai tue a bawtnah ni. Cangat rhoek tah puencawn rhoek ni. (aiōn g165)
40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this age. (aiōn g165)
Te dongah paitaang a yoep uh tih hmai neh a hoeh bangla kumhal kah a bawtnah dongah om van ni. (aiōn g165)
41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
Hlang capa loh a puencawn rhoek te a tueih ni. Te vaengah thangkui neh olaeknah aka saii rhoek boeih te a ram lamloh a bit uh ni.
42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Te phoeiah amih te hmai alh khuila a phum uh ni. Te rhoek ah rhah neh, no rhuengnah nen ni a om eh.
43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Te vaengah aka dueng rhoek tah Pa kah ram ah khomik bangla sae uh ni. Hna aka khueh loh ya saeh.
44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
Vaan ram tah lohma ah a thuh sut khohrhang phek la om. Te te hlang loh a hmuh vaengah a thuh tih a omngaihnah neh cet. Te phoeiah a khueh boeih te a yoih tih te kah lohmuen te a lai.
45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:
Te phoeiah vaan ram tah laitha then aka toem hnoyoi hlang phek la om.
46 Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
Laitha a phu aka tlo pakhat la a hmuh dongah, a caeh neh a khueh boeih te a yoih tih a lai.
47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:
Vaan ram tah tuili khuila lawk aka voei bangla om bal tih namtu cungkuem lamkah khaw a coi.
48 Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.
Te te a bae vaengah lihmoi la a kawt uh. Te phoeiah ngol uh tih a then te busui khuila a sang uh. Tedae a thae te tah phawn a voeih uh.
49 So shall it be at the end of the age: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, (aiōn g165)
Kumhal kah a bawtnah dongah om van ni. Puencawn rhoek loh cet uh vetih aka dueng lakli kah boethae rhoek te a hoep ni. (aiōn g165)
50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Te phoeiah amih te hmai alh khuila a voeih uh ni. Te hmuen ah rhah neh no rhuengnah ni aka om eh.,” a ti nah.
51 Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.
“He rhoek boeih he na hmuhming uh a?” a ti nah. Amah taengah, “Ue,” a ti uh.
52 Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.
Te dongah amih taengah, “Vaan ram kah aka bang cadaek boeih tah a khohrhang khuikah a rhuem neh a thai aka pok hlang imkung phek la om,” a ti nah.
53 And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence.
Jesuh loh nuettahnah he bawt a khah tih te lamloh vik nong.
54 And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?
Te phoeiah amah tolrhum la pawk tih amamih kah tunim ah amih te a thuituen hatah let uh tih, “Anih kah cueihnah neh a thaomnah he me lamkah nim?
55 Is not this the carpenter’s son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
“Anih he kutthai capa la aom moenih a? A manu tah Mary la a khue uh moenih a? A mana rhoek khaw James, Josephb, Simon, Judah ta.
56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things?
A ngannu rhoek khaw mamih taengah boeih a om uh moenih a? Te dongah anih taengkah boeih he me lamkah nim?” a ti uh.
57 And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
Tedae anih kongah amamih te a khah uh. Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te, “Tonghma he amah im neh amah kah tolrhum pawt atah sawtsit ti om pawh,” a ti nah.
58 And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
Tedae amih kah hnalvalnah kongah a thaomnah muep tueng sak pawh.
