Matthew 15 (MNI)

1Matam aduda Jerusalemda-gi Pharisee amasung Wayel Yathanggi oja khara laktuna Jisuda hanglak-i,Then some Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked,

2“Karigi eikhoigi ipa-ipudagi chatnaraklaba chatnabi asi nahakki tung-inbasingna thugairibano? Makhoina chadringeigi mamangda makhut hamdokte!”“Why do Your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They do not wash their hands before they eat.”

3Maduda Jisuna makhoida khumlak-i, “Aduga karigi nakhoigi chatnabi adugidamak Tengban Mapugi wayel-yathangbu thugairiba?Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?

4Maramdi Tengban Mapuna hai, ‘Nakhoina nama napabu ikai khumnou’ aduga ‘Mama mapabu thina ngangba mahak adu sibagi cheirak phangsanu.’For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’

5Adubu nakhoina tambi madudi kanagumba amana mahakki mama nattraga mapada, ‘Eina nakhoida pigadabasing adu Tengban Mapugi maphamda katthokkhre’ hairabadi,But you say that if anyone says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from me is a gift devoted to God,’

6mahakna mama mapada ikai khumnadrabasu karisu kaidre. Asumna nakhoina nakhoigi chatnabi adu ngaknabagidamak Tengban Mapugi yathangbu karisu nattaba oihalle.he need not honor his father or mother with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition.

7He aphasasinnabasa! Maichou Isaiah-na nakhoigi maramda phongdoklamba adu kayada chumkhraba!You hypocrites! Isaiah prophesied correctly about you:

8‘Mising asina eibu chinbanthongda ikai khumnei, adubu makhoigi thamoidi eingondagi thapna lei.‘These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me.

9Makhoina mioibagi chatnabising adubu eigi yathangsinggumna tambiduna, Makhoina eibu arembada khurummi.’ ”They worship Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of men.’”

10Adudagi Jisuna miyam adubu manakta kouraduna makhoida hairak-i, “Tao amasung masi khang-u!Jesus called the crowd to Him and said, “Listen and understand.

11Chinda changkhiba aduna mi amabu maang-hanba natte, adubu chindagi thoklakpa aduna mibu maanghalli.”A man is not defiled by what enters his mouth, but by what comes out of it.”

12Adudagi Ibungogi tung-inbasing aduna Ibungogi nakta laklaga hairak-i, “Ibungona haikhiba wa aduna Pharisee-sing adu thamoi sokle haiba Ibungo khangbibra?”Then the disciples came to Him and said, “Are You aware that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?”

13Maduda Ibungona khumlak-i, “Eigi swargagi Ipana thakhidaba pambi khudingmakpu maru phuktatkani.But Jesus replied, “Every plant that My heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by its roots.

14Aduga makhoigidamak karisu khallunu, makhoidi mittangbasingbu chingliba mittangba lamjingbasingni; aduga mittangbana mittangbabu lamjinglabadi makhoi animak komda tagani.”Disregard them! They are blind guides. If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.”

15Maduda Peter-na Ibungoda hairak-i, “Pandam asi eikhoida sandokna takpiyu.”Peter said to Him, “Explain this parable to us.”

16Jisuna makhoida hairak-i, “Nakhoisu houjik phaoba khangdribra?“Do you still not understand?” Jesus asked.

17Nakhoina chakhiba khudingmak adu chakkhaoda changkhraba matungda hakchangdagi amuk thokkhi haiba nakhoina khangdabra.“Do you not yet realize that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then is eliminated?

18Adubu nakhoigi chindagi thorakpa wasing adu nakhoigi thamoidagi thoklakpani, aduga hairibasing asina nakhoibu maanghalli.But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a man.

19Maramdi phattaba wakhallonsing, mihatpa, nupa-nupi lanaba, lamchat naidaba, huranba, chinthiba, aduga migi mangnanaba ngangba pumnamak asi thamoidagi thoklak-i.For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, and slander.

20Hairibasing asina nakhoibu maanghalli. Adubu khut hamdoktana chabana nakhoibu maanghande.”These are what defile a man, but eating with unwashed hands does not defile him.”

21Adudagi Jisuna Galilee thadoklamduna Tyre amadi Sidon lamda chatlammi.Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the district of Tyre and Sidon.

22Aduga mapham aduda leiba Canaan-gi nupi amana Ibungogi nakta laktuna hairak-i, “He Ibungo, David-ki Machanupa, Ibungona eibu chanbiyu. Eigi ichanupi adu lai phattaba ama changduna tamthina ot-neiduna leire.”And a Canaanite woman from that region came to Him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is miserably possessed by a demon.”

23Adubu Jisuna mangonda paokhum amata piramde. Maduda Ibungogi tung-inbasing aduna Ibungogi manakta laklaga haijarak-i, “Ibungona mahakpu chat-hanbikhro! Mahak eikhoigi itung induna laoraga leire.”But Jesus did not answer a word. So His disciples came and urged Him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”

24Maduda Ibungona khumlak-i, “Eihak Tengban Mapugi mangkhraba yaosing haibadi Israel-gi mising khaktagidamak tharakpani.”He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

25Adubu nupi aduna laktuna Ibungogi khuyada tuthajaduna hairak-i, “Ibungo, eibu pangbiyu!”The woman came and knelt before Him. “Lord, help me!” she said.

26Maduda Jisuna hairak-i, “Angangsinggi chananaba adu louduna huisingda hunjinba chumde.”But Jesus replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”

27Nupi aduna khumlak-i, “Madu achumbani Ibungo, adubu huising aduna makhoigi mapusinggi table-dagi tarakpa arem akhaksing adu chajei.”“Yes, Lord,” she said, “even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”

28Adudagi Jisuna nupi aduda hairak-i, “He nupi, nahakna kayada thajaba chetliba! Nahakki ningjaba adumak nangonda oisanu.” Aduga pungpham adumaktada mahakki machanupi adu naba phajare.“O woman,” Jesus answered, “your faith is great! Let it be done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

29Adudagi Jisuna mapham adudagi Galilee-gi pat manakta hallaklaga ching amada kakhattuna phamlammi.Moving on from there, Jesus went along the Sea of Galilee. Then He went up on a mountain and sat down.

30Aduga yamlaba miyam amana makhong tekpa, mamit tangba, makhong soinaiba, lol thoktaba amadi atoppa kaya ama puraduna Ibungogi manakta laklammi. Amasung makhoibu Ibungogi mangda thamle aduga Ibungona makhoibu phahanbirammi.Large crowds came to Him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others, and laid them at His feet, and He healed them.

31Aduga lol thoktabasingna wa ngangba, soinaibasingna phajaba, khong tekpasingna chatpa, amadi mamit tangbasingna ujaba adu ubada miyam adu ngaklammi amasung makhoina Israel-gi Tengban Mapubu thagatcharammi.The crowd was amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled restored, the lame walking, and the blind seeing. And they glorified the God of Israel.

32Adudagi Jisuna mahakki tung-inbasing adubu kouraduna hairak-i, “Eina miyam asigidamak nungsiba pokle, maramdi eihakka loinana makhoina numit humni leiminnare aduga houjik makhoigi chananaba karisu leitre. Aduga eina makhoibu kari amata pijadana thadokkhiba pamde adu nattrabadi makhoi lambida wantharakpasu yai.”Then Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may faint along the way.”

33Maduda Ibungogi tung-inbasing aduna Ibungoda haijarak-i, “Asuk yamkhraba miyam asina chaba konanaba chinjak lamhang asida eikhoina karamna phanggadouribano?”The disciples replied, “Where in this desolate place could we find enough bread to feed such a large crowd?”

34Jisuna makhoida hairak-i, “Nakhoida tal kaya yaoribage?” Maduda makhoina khumlak-i, “Tal taret amasung nga macha kharaga yaojari.”“How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied, “and a few small fish.”

35Adudagi Ibungona miyam adubu leimaida phamthanaba hairammi.And He instructed the crowd to sit down on the ground.

36Aduga mahakna tal taret amadi nga adu louraga Tengban Mapubu thagatcharammi. Amasung talsing adu settuna tung-inbasingda pire, aduga tung-inbasing aduna miyam aduda yenthoklammi.Taking the seven loaves and the fish, He gave thanks and broke them. Then He gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.

37Amasung makhoi pumnamakna mabuk thanna charaba matungda lemhouba machet makaising adu tung-inbasingna thumok taret thanna khomjinkhi.They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.

38Numit aduda chakhiba mising adu nupi amasung angang thadana nupa lising marirom oirammi.A total of four thousand men were fed, besides women and children.

39Adudagi Ibungona miyam adubu thadokkhraba tungda hi amada tongduna Magadan-gi lamda chatkhirammi.After Jesus had dismissed the crowds, He got into the boat and went to the region of Magadan.
