Mark 4 (MNI) · Opened

1Adudagi Jisuna Galilee-gi pat mapanda amuk tambiba hourammi. Maduda Ibungogi akoibada tilliba miyamsingdu yamankhibana Ibungona hi amada kakhattuna phamlammi. Hi adu ipakthakta leirammi aduga miyam aduna pat mapanda leplammi.Once again Jesus began to teach beside the sea, and such a large crowd gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people crowded along the shore.

2Adudagi Ibungona pandamsing sijinnaduna hiram kaya ama makhoida tambirammi. Ibungona makhoida hairak-i,And He taught them many things in parables, and in His teaching He said,

3“Tao! Lou-uba amana maru hunba chatlammi.“Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed.

4Mahakna loubukta maru asum hullakpada, maru kharana lambi mapanda tare aduga ucheksing laktuna marusingdu chathokkhre.And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.

5Aduga kharana leipak kaya leitaba nunglakta tare. Amasung leipak luthana leitabana marusing adu thuna mayol chonglakle.Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.

6Adubu numit thorakpada nungsagi meisana yeibadagi pambisingdu thuna kangsilhalle, maramdi pambisingdu mara luna taramde.But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.

7Aduga kharana tingkhangsinggi marakta tare, amasung tingkhangsingduna chaokhatlaktuna pambisingdu namhatle aduga pambisingdu mahei yanba ngamdre.Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings, and they yielded no crop.

8Adubu maru kharadi aphaba leihao chenba maphamda tare aduga mayol chonglaktuna chaokhatlaklaga mahei yamna yalle, madudi kharana kunthra, kharana humphu aduga khara amana chama yalle.”Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprouted, grew up, and produced a crop—one bearing thirtyfold, another sixtyfold, and another a hundredfold.”

9Adudagi Jisuna makhoida hairak-i, “Tananaba nakong panba mahak aduna tasanu!”Then Jesus said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

10Adudagi miyam adu chatkhiduna Ibungokhakta ngaihouraba matamda, tung-inba taranithoi amadi mahakki akoibada phamlibasing aduna pandamsing adu sandokna takpinaba Ibungoda haijarammi.As soon as Jesus was alone with the Twelve and those around Him, they asked Him about the parable.

11Jisuna makhoida hairak-i, “Tengban Mapugi Leibakki athuppa adu nakhoida khang-hanbire. Adubu mapanda leiba makhoidadi eina pumnamak pandam oina hai.He replied, “The mystery of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to those on the outside everything is expressed in parables,

12Maramdi Mapugi Puyagi wa asi thungnanabani, ‘Makhoina hanna hanna yenggani, adubu khangloi; makhoina hanna hanna tagani, adubu wakhal taba ngamloi. Maramdi makhoina khanglamlaba aduga wakhal taramlaba, makhoina Mapu Ibungoda hallaklamgadabani, aduga Mapu Ibungona makhoibu kokpiramgadabani.’ ”so that, ‘they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding; otherwise they might turn and be forgiven.’”

13Adudagi Jisuna makhoida hanglak-i, “Pandam asi nakhoina khangba ngamdabra? Adu oirabadi kamdouna nakhoina atei pandamsing khangba ngamgadage?Then Jesus said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? Then how will you understand any of the parables?

14Maru hunba mi aduna hullibadu Mapu Ibungogi waheini.The farmer sows the word.

15Mi kharadi lambi mapanda taba marusing aduga mannei. Madudi makhoina Mapu Ibungogi waheidu hek tabaga, Satan-na laktuna makhoida hunkhraba Mapu Ibungogi waheidu makhoidagi louthokkhi.Some are like the seeds along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them.

16Aduga mi kharana nunglakta taba marusingduga manei. Makhoina Mapu Ibungogi wahei adu hek tabaga haraona lousilli.Some are like the seeds sown on rocky ground. They hear the word and at once receive it with joy.

17Adum oinamak makhoina mara phajana tadaba maramna kuina khaangde. Maram aduna Mapu Ibungogi waheigi maramgidamak makhoida awa-ana amadi ot-neiba lakpa matamda makhoigi thajaba adu thuna thadokkhi.But they themselves have no root, and they remain for only a season. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away.

18Aduga mi kharadi tingkhang marakta hunkhiba marusing aduga manei. Makhoina Mapu Ibungogi wahei tare,Others are like the seeds sown among the thorns. They hear the word,

19adubu taibangpan punsi asigi langtaknaba, lanthumgi oiba nungaibagi lounam amadi makhal kayagi apambasingna makhoida changkhiduna Mapu Ibungogi wahei adu namhatkhi aduga mahei yalhande.but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the desire for other things come in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

20Adubu mi kharadi aphaba leihao chenba maphamda hunba marusingga manei. Makhoina Mapu Ibungogi wahei adu tai amadi wahei adubu lousinjei, aduga mahei yalli madudi kharana kunthra, kharana humphu aduga khara amana chama mahei yalli.”Still others are like the seeds sown on good soil. They hear the word, receive it, and produce a crop—thirtyfold, sixtyfold, or a hundredfold.”

21Jisuna makhoida makha taraduna hairak-i, “Kanana thaomeibu thumok makhada nattraga kangkha makhada thamnabage? Thaomeidi thaomei makhong mathakta thamnaba nattra?Jesus also said to them, “Does anyone bring in a lamp to put it under a basket or under a bed? Doesn’t he set it on a stand?

22Maramdi phongdokloidaba arotpa karisu leite aduga khangloidaba aronba karisu leite.For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be brought to light.

23Aduna manakong panba mahak aduna tasanu!”If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”

24Ibungona makhoida makha tana asisu hairak-i, “Nakhoina tariba aduda ningthijana wakhal tou! Nakhoina olliba chang adumak Mapu Ibungona nakhoidasu onbirakkani amasung hennadum onbirakkani.He went on to say, “Pay attention to what you hear. With the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and even more will be added to you.

25Areiba mahak aduda henna pibigani, aduga leitaba mahak adudagi mahakki leijaba adu phaoba louthokkani.”For whoever has will be given more. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”

26Jisuna asisu hairak-i, “Mapu Ibungogi leibak adu mi amana mahakki loubukta maru hunbagumbani.Jesus also said, “The kingdom of God is like a man who scatters seed on the ground.

27Mahakna tumlabasu hougatlabasu, ahing nungthil animakta marusing adu mayol chongduna hourak-i. Mahaknadi madu kamdouna oiraklibano haibadudi khangde.Night and day he sleeps and wakes, and the seed sprouts and grows, though he knows not how.

28Leipak masana adumak pambisingdu chaokhat-handuna mahei yalhalli; ahanbada mayol, mathangda charong, aduga akonbada pambi aduda mapung phana mahei yalhalli.All by itself the earth produces a crop—first the stalk, then the head, then grain that ripens within.

29Mahei aduna mullabada mahakna thanggol thaduna lok-i, maramdi lourok tha adu lakle.”And as soon as the grain is ripe, he swings the sickle, because the harvest has come.”

30Jisuna amuksu hairak-i, “Tengban Mapugi leibak adu eikhoina kariga changdamnagadage? Masibu sandokna taknaba eikhoina kari pandam sijinnagani?Then He asked, “To what can we compare the kingdom of God? With what parable shall we present it?

31Masi marusinggi marakta khwaidagi pikpa maru oiriba hanggam maru amabu, mi amana louraga leipakta thabagumbani.It is like a mustard seed, which is the smallest of all seeds sown upon the earth.

32Adubu thakhraba matung khara leiraga madu chaokhatlak-i, aduga ingkholgi mana-masing pumnakki manungda khwaidagi chaoba pambi oirak-i. Maduna achouba masa longthorak-i aduga ucheksingna madugi marumda mahum sai.”But after it is planted, it grows to be the largest of all garden plants and puts forth great branches, so that the birds of the air nest in its shade.”

33Asigumba atoppa pandam kaya amasu sijinnaduna Jisuna misingda makhoina khangba ngamba chang adu phaoba tambirammi.With many such parables Jesus spoke the word to them, to the extent that they could understand.

34Ibungona makhoida pandam sijinnadana keidounungda tambiramde, adum oinamak Ibungona mahakki tung-inbasing khaktaga tonganna leiba matamda, Ibungona makhoida pumnamak sandokna takpirammi.He did not tell them anything without using a parable. But privately He explained everything to His own disciples.

35Numit adumakki numidangwairamda Jisuna mahakki tung-inbasingda hairak-i, “Eikhoi pat asigi wangmada chatsi.”When that evening came, He said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side.”

36Adudagi Ibungogi tung-inbasing aduna miyam adubu thanamlaga, Jisuna phamliba hi aduda tongkhattuna makhoina Jisubu puduna chatle. Mapham aduda hi mayam amasu leirammi.After they had dismissed the crowd, they took Jesus with them, since He was already in the boat. And there were other boats with Him.

37Adudagi ikhang khang-houdana akanba nonglei nungsit ama lakle. Aduga ithak-ipomna hida yeibadagi hinungda ising hajillaktuna hidu isingna than-gadourammi.Soon a violent windstorm came up, and the waves were breaking over the boat, so that it was being swamped.

38Adubu Jisudi hirubakta mon khangduna tumduna leirammi. Maduda Ibungogi tung-inbasingna Ibungobu houdoktuna hairak-i, “Oja Ibungo, eikhoi sigadoure haibasi Ibungona kari amata khanbidrabra?”But Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on the cushion. So they woke Him and said, “Teacher, don’t You care that we are perishing?”

39Adudagi Jisuna hougatlaktuna nungsit aduda yathang pirak-i, “Tuminna leiyu!” aduga mahakna ithaksing aduda hairak-i, “Tapthou!” Adudagi nungsit adu lepkhre aduga pumnamak pumtap tapthakhre.Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the sea. “Silence!” He commanded. “Be still!” And the wind died down, and it was perfectly calm.

40Maduda Jisuna makhoida hairak-i, “Nakhoina aduk kiriba karigino? Nakhoida houjik phaoba thajaba leitribra?”“Why are you so afraid?” He asked. “Do you still have no faith?”

41Maduda makhoi yamna kirammi aduga makhoi masel amaga amaga hainarak-i, “Nungsit amadi ithaksing phaobana haiba illiba mahak asibu kanano?”Overwhelmed with fear, they asked one another, “Who is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”
