Matthew 6 (MNI)

1“Nakhoina aphaba thabaksing touba matamda misingda utnabagidamakta toudanaba cheksillu. Madu nattrabadi swargada leiba nakhoigi Napa Ibungogi maphamdagi nakhoigi mana phangloi.“Be careful not to perform your righteous acts before men to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.

2“Maram aduna misingdagi thagatpa phangnanabagidamak aphasasinnabasingna synagogue-sing amasung lambisingda toubagumna, nakhoina leita lairasingda piba matamda namangda pungjao thin-ganu. Eina nakhoida tasengnamak hairibasini, makhoina makhoigi phangadaba mana adu loina phangkhre.So when you give to the needy, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by men. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward.

3Adubu nangna leita-lairasingda mateng pangba matamda, nanggi yetthangba khutna touba adu oi thangba khutna khangdasanu.But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,

4Masi nanggi pibagi thabak adu aronba oinabani. Aduga aronba pumnamakpu uriba nahakki Ipana nangonda mana pibigani.so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

5“Aduga nahakna haijaba matamda, aphasasinnabasinggumna oiganu; maramdi makhoibu misingna unanaba, makhoina synagogue-sing amasung miyam tinba lambisingda leptuna haijabadu pammi. Eina nakhoida tasengnamak hairibasini, makhoina makhoigi phangadaba mana loina phangkhre.And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward.

6Adubu nahakti, nahakna haijaba matamda nanggi kada chang-u, aduga thong thingjinduna lonna leiba nahakki Napada haijou. Aduga aronba pumnamakpu ubiba nahakki Ipana nangonda mana pibigani.”But when you pray, go into your inner room, shut your door, and pray to your Father, who is unseen. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

7“Aduga nakhoina haijaba matamda, Tengban Mapubu thajadabasinggumna arembada hanjin hanjin haijaganu, maramdi makhoina wahei mayam ama haibagi maramna makhoigi haijaba adu tabigani haina makhoina khalli.And when you pray, do not babble on like pagans, for they think that by their many words they will be heard.

8Adubu nakhoidi makhoigumna oiganu; maramdi nakhoina nijadringeigi mamangda nakhoigi awatpa leiba adu nakhoigi Ipana khangbi.Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him.

9Maram aduna nakhoina matou asumna haijou, ‘Swargada leiba eikhoigi Ipa, Ibungo Nahakki ming asengba oisanu.So then, this is how you should pray: ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name.

10Nahakki leibak laksanu; swargada nahakna ningba toubagumna taibangpanda oisanu.Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

11Numit asigi nongmagi chara eikhoida pinabiyu.Give us this day our daily bread.

12Aduga eikhoida laman tonbasingbu eikhoina kokpibagumna, eikhoigi laman kokpiyu.And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.

13Aduga eikhoibu athembada tahanbiganu, adubu phattaba adudagi eikhoibu kanbiyu. Maramdi ningthou leibak, panggal amasung matik mangal lomba naidana nahakkini. Amen.’And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’

14“Maramdi nakhoigi nathakta misingna tourakpa ayol-aransing adu nakhoina kokpirabadi, nakhoigi swargada leiba Napa Ibungonasu nakhoibu kokpigani.For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.

15Adubu nakhoina misinggi ayol-aran kokpidrabadi, nakhoigi Napa Ibungona nakhoigi ayol-aransing adu kokpiroi.”But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive yours.

16“Aduga nakhoina chara henba matamda, aphasasinnaba misinggi matougumna awa-maithong utkanu, maramdi makhoina chara helli haiba adu misingda utnanaba makhoigi maithong adu maksilhalli. Eina nakhoida tasengnamak hairibasini, makhoina makhoigi phangadaba mana loina phangkhre.When you fast, do not be somber like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces to show men they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward.

17Adubu nahakti chara henba matamda, namai-namit tathoktuna nakoktu thao teisillu.But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,

18Masi nahakna chara helli haibadu misingna khangdananaba adubu lonna leiba nahakki Napa Ibungo khaktana khangnanabani. Aduga lonna toujaba adubu ubiba nahakki Napa Ibungona nangonda mana pibigani.so that your fasting will not be obvious to men, but only to your Father, who is unseen. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

19“Til-kang amadi kolhingna manghanba aduga huranbasingna sagun touduna huranba malem asida nakhoigidamak lan peisin-ganu.Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.

20Adubu til-kang amadi kolhingna manghanba ngamdraba, aduga huranbasingnasu huba ngamdraba swargada nakhoigidamak lan peisillu.But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.

21Maramdi nahakki lan leiba mapham aduda nahakki thamoisu leigani.For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

22“Mit haibasina hakchanggidi thaomeiga pangkhakni. Maram aduna nahakki mityeng chumlagadi, nahakki hakchang apumba mangalna than-gani.The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light.

23Adubu nahakki mityeng chumdrabadi, nahakki hakchang apumba amambana than-gani. Aduga nangonda leiba mangal aduna mamlabadi, amamba adu kayada mamkhraba.But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

24“Kananasu mapu anigi minai oiba ngamde; maramdi mahakna amabu tukkacharaga atoppa amabuna nungsigani, nattraga mahakna amabu ninglaga atoppa amabuna thou-oiroi. Asumna nakhoina Tengban Mapu amasung lan animakpu thougal touba ngamloi.No one can serve two masters: Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.

25“Maram aduna eina nakhoida tasengnamak hairibasini, nakhoina hingnabagidamak kari chagani, kari thakkani nattraga hakchanggidamak kari setkani haibagidamak karisu langtaknaganu. Thawaina chinjaktagi aduga hakchangna phijettagi henna maru oidra?Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?

26Atiyagi ucheksingda yeng-u; makhoina marusu hunde, loksu lokte, aduga kei-dasu peisinde. Adumakpu nakhoigi swargada leiba Ipana makhoida chananaba machinjak pibi. Nakhoidi makhoisingdagi yamna henna mamal yamba nattra?Look at the birds of the air: They do not sow or reap or gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

27Aduga nakhoi kanana langtaknaduna nakhoigi punsibu pungja ama sangdok-hanba ngambage?Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

28“Aduga nakhoina phijetkidamak karigi langtaknaribage? Loubuk-lamhangda houba tharosingna, karamna houriba haibadu yeng-u. Makhoina thabaksu nomde, langsu naide.And why do you worry about clothes? Consider how the lilies of the field grow: They do not labor or spin.

29Adubu eina nakhoida hairibasini, Ningthou Solomonmak-na mahakki matik mangal pumnamakka loinana phijet leitenglabasu leising asina phajaba asigumna phijet leitengkhide.Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was adorned like one of these.

30Aduga ngasidi houriba, hayengdi meinungda hunjinkhragadaba loubukki napi phaoba Tengban Mapuna asuk ningthijana phijet leitengbirabadi, he thajaba watpasa, mahakna nakhoibu kaya ningthijana phijet leitengbiroidra?If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

31“Maram aduna eikhoina kari chagani, nattraga kari thakkani, nattraga kari setkani haiduna langtaknaganu.Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’

32Maramdi Tengban Mapubu thajadabasingna pot pumnamaksing asi thi, adubu swargada leiba nakhoigi Ipana pot pumnamaksing asi nakhoida mathou tai haiba khang-bi.For the Gentiles strive after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.

33Adubu nakhoina ahanbada Tengban Mapugi leibak amasung Ibungo mahakna nakhoida touhaningba achumba thabaksing adu thiyu, aduga pot pumnamaksing asi nakhoida pinabigani.But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you.

34Maram aduna nakhoina hayenggidamak langtaknaganu, maramdi hayengsu hayeng masagi langtaknaba adumak leijagani. Aduna nongmagi waruba aduna numit adugidi awokpani.Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Today has enough trouble of its own.
