Mark 4 (SCH) · Opened

1Galilee dîl kôla Jisua'n a minchu nôka, mipuingei a kôma juong intûp ngei hah an tam rai sikin rukuonga a chuonga, ânsunga, mipuingei hah chu tui rakham asortea tânga han an indinga.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.

2Anni ngei minchuna rangin chongmintêkngei mangin neinun tamtak ngei a misîr pe ngeia, an kôm han:And He taught them many things in parables, and in His teaching He said,

3“Rangâi roi! voikhat chu mi inkhatin burît rangin a sea.“Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed.

4Loia han sachi a rethea, senkhat lampui kôla achula, vângei an honga male an sâk ripa.And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.

5Senkhat lungpherpha pil ânphâna chunga achula, pil ânphân sikin ahong mông kelena,Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.

6Hanchu, nisa ahong insângin chu akung innoinar ngei ha a em minjuota, aruzung amathâk hah ânthûk loi sikin akângrip kelena.But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.

7Senkhat chu riling kâra achula, riling han akungngei ha adîpa, male inra thei khâi mak ngei.Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings, and they yielded no crop.

8Aniatachu senkhat chu pil sana achula, akungngei ahong kêia, ahong insôna, avûia: senkhat sômthumin, senkhat sômrukin, male senkhat raza khatin ahong pung zoi” a tia.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.”

9Male Jisua'n a chongkharnân an kôm “Kuor nin dônin chu rangâi roi!” a tipe ngeia.Then Jesus said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

10Jisua athenin aom lehan, a ruoisingei sômleinik le midang senkhat ngei ma chong riet ngei han a kôm an honga male ha chongmintêkngei hah rilminthâr pe ngei rangin an ngêna.As soon as Jesus was alone with the Twelve and those around Him, they asked Him about the parable.

11Jisua'n an kôm, “Pathien Rêngram chonginthup riettheina nin kôm pêk ani zoi.” Hannirese, “Midangngei pêntienga omngei rangin chu, neinunngei murdi chongmintêkngei vaiin misîr pe an nia,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,

12‘Masikin an en, an en khomin an mu loina rangin le; an rangâi an rangâi khomin, an rietthei loina rangin. Ma anghan an thôn chu, Pathien tieng inhei nôk an ta, male ama'n lei ngâidam ngei thei atih’” a tia.so that, ‘they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding; otherwise they might turn and be forgiven.’”

13Hanchu Jisua'n an kôm, “Hi chongmintêk hih nin rietthei loi mo? Hanchu, kho angin mo chongmintêk dangngei ngân khom nin rietthei ranga?Then Jesus said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? Then how will you understand any of the parables?

14Sachirethêpa han Pathien chong a rethe ngâi.The farmer sows the word.

15Mi senkhat ngei chu, sachi lampui kôla chul angin an nia; chong hah an riet harenghan, Soitan a honga an mulungrîla om hah a lâk pe ngei ngâi.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.

16Midang senkhat ngei chu sachi lungpherpha chunga chul angin an ni. Thurchi hah an riet harenghan, râisântakin an pom kelen ngâia.Some are like the seeds sown on rocky ground. They hear the word and at once receive it with joy.

17Hannirese, ruzung inthûk an mathâk loi sikin om sôt ngâi maka. Thurchi sika intakna mini nuomlona mini, ahong om lehan chu anin let nôk kelen ngâi.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.

18Mi senkhat ngei chu sachi riling kâra achul angin an ni. Ma ngei hah chu thurchi rangâipu ngei hah an nia,Others are like the seeds sown among the thorns. They hear the word,

19aniatachu an ringnuna kângdoinangei, rammuol hoina le neinangei le jât dadang an ôinangei ahong lûta chong hah adîpa, amara musuo ngâi mak.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.

20Hannirese mi senkhat ngei chu pil asana achul ngei angin an ni. Chong hah an rieta, an poma, male ânra ngâi: senkhat sômthumin, senkhat sômrukin, senkhat raza khatin an hong pung zoi, a tia.”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.”

21Jisua'n a chong a la zombanga, “Tumo châti hongchôia adarna muna dar loiin, bêl nuoia mo, aninônchu jâlmun nuoia mini a dar ngâia? adarna munna ke an va dar ngâi nimak mo?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?

22Ânthup murdi tâng la musuo nîng a ta, hîpa om ngei murdi lîkpai la nîng atih.For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be brought to light.

23Hanchu, kuor nin dônin chu rangâi roi!” a tia.If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”

24Hanchu Jisua nanâkin an kôm, “Nin chong rangâi hih asadimin mindon roi! Midangngei nin jêkna balamngei nanâk hah Pathien'n nangni jêkna rangin mang a tih, manêkin nangni min rik pe uol a tih.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.

25Tu tukhom imini dônpu ngei chu bôk pêk sa nîng a ta, male tukhom ite dôn loi ngei chu an dôn viette khom ha lâk pe rip nîng atih,” a tia.For whoever has will be given more. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”

26Jisua'n thurchi a la misîr banga, an kôm, “Pathien Rêngram chu hi anghin ani.” Mi inkhatin a loia chimu a rethea.Jesus also said, “The kingdom of God is like a man who scatters seed on the ground.

27Hanchu a sea, a van ngama jânna a inna, ânthoia sûn ngei ha a va manga, a riet loi kârin chimu hah ahong kêia, ahong insôn zoia.Night and day he sleeps and wakes, and the seed sprouts and grows, though he knows not how.

28Pil ha athenin akungngei hah aminsôna, amara amin dôna; amotona akung ahong inlang ngâi, hanchu avûia, male anûktaka aramala sip buvûi ahong oma.All by itself the earth produces a crop—first the stalk, then the head, then grain that ripens within.

29Bu hah amin tena chu, ha mi han ât zora ahong tung zoi sikin a kôite lâkin bu ât aphut ngâi anghan ani, a tia.And as soon as the grain is ripe, he swings the sickle, because the harvest has come.”

30Jisua'n an kôm, “Pathien Rêngram hih imo a-ang ei ti rang ân zoi? Khoi chongmintêk mangin mo ei rilminthâr rang ani zoi?Then He asked, “To what can we compare the kingdom of God? With what parable shall we present it?

31Mi inkhatin ancham ru rammuola chimu murdi lâia achîntak ramal khat a lâka, pila a tua.It is like a mustard seed, which is the smallest of all seeds sown upon the earth.

32Chomolte suole chu ahong mônga, chimu murdi lâia alientak ahongni ngâi. Machang lientak ngei ahong dôna, male vângei an honga male adâilîm han rubungei an phana mahan an riek thei ang ha ani” a tia.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.”

33Ma anghin Jisua'n mingei kôm han chongmintêk tamtak mangin, an rietthei rang do-dôrin a thurchi a misîr pe ngei ngâia.With many such parables Jesus spoke the word to them, to the extent that they could understand.

34Chongmintêk niloiin chu an kôm, thurchi misîr ngâi maka; hannirese, a ruoisingei leh vai an om zorân chu jâttin a rilminthâr pe ngei ngâi ani.He did not tell them anything without using a parable. But privately He explained everything to His own disciples.

35Mani nanâka han kholoi ahongnin chu Jisua'n a ruoisingei kôm, “Dîl râl tieng son vân kân ei ti u” a tia.When that evening came, He said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side.”

36Masikin lokongei ha an mâka; Jisua a lei insungna rukuonga han ruoisingei hah an lûta, ama khom an tuonga. Mahan rukuong dangngei khom an om sa.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.

37Inningloi rengin phâivuopui râttak ahong thoa, tuidârinsok khom hah rukuonga a lûta asip vâng zoia.Soon a violent windstorm came up, and the waves were breaking over the boat, so that it was being swamped.

38Jisua chu lukham khamin rukuong remei tienga han a lei ina. Ruoisingei han an kaithoia male a kôm, “Minchupu kin thi rang ani zoi, itên ni mindon loi mini?” an tia.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?”

39Jisua ânthoia, phâivuopui hah a ngoa, “Mong roh!” male tuidârinsok kôm han, “Omchien roh!” a tia. Phâivuopui hah amonga, male adâingang zoi.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.

40Hanchu Jisua'n a ruoisingei kôm “Ithomo ma angtaka nin chi hi? Taksônna reng nin la dônloi mo?” a tia.“Why are you so afraid?” He asked. “Do you still have no faith?”

41Aniatachu an chi sabaka, male inkhat le inkhat kôm, “Hi mi hih tumo ani hi? Phâivuopui le tuidârinsok tena khomin a chong an don hi?” anin ti inlôma.Overwhelmed with fear, they asked one another, “Who is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”
