Luke 12 (TCZCHONG)

1Hiche pet chun, mihonpi chu asang ajan ahung khang in akisucheh chuh un chule khat le khat kichonkha ton aumun, Jesun hichun aseijui te henglam ahin ngan agih sal in, “Pharisee ho chol a kon'in kihong phauvin—aphatlhem nauva kon'in.In the meantime, a crowd of many thousands had gathered, so that they were trampling one another. Jesus began to speak first to His disciples: “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

2Phat ahung lhunge, thil akikhukhum jouse kiphongdoh ding ahi, chule aguha um jouse jong mijouse kom'a kihetsah ding ahi.There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, and nothing hidden that will not be made known.

3Muthim'a nasei jouseu chu khovah a kija ding ahi, chule kot kikhakhum na a olcha nakiseipeh toujong chu inchunga mijouse jah a kisamphong ding ahi!What you have spoken in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the housetops.

4“Ngailut umtah jol le gol te, natahsa that thei ho chu kicha hih un.” Hiche jou le chun na chungah ima abolthei tapouve.I tell you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more.

5Ahin kichat ding koi ham naseipeh unge. Pathen kichauvin, aman nangho thana thei le damun'a lelutna thei thilbol theina tha anei ahi. Henge, kichat ding ama ahi .”But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear the One who, after you have been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear Him!

6“Vasah nga man ijat ham–paisa ni man ham? Ahin Pathen'in khat jeng jong asumil pon ahi.Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God.

7Chuleh nalu'a na samjang ho jeng jong aboncha kisimtoh soh ahitai. Hijeh chun kicha hih un; nangma vasah honpi jouse sanga manlujo nahi.”And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

8“Ka seipeh nahiuve, koi hileh hiche leiset a lhangphonga keima eiseidoh chan chu, Mihem Chapan jong Pathen Vantil te jaona a aseidoh ding ahi.I tell you, everyone who confesses Me before men, the Son of Man will also confess him before the angels of God.

9Amavang koi hileh hiche leiset a eiseilep chan chu Pathen Vantil te masanga kiseilep diu ahi.But whoever denies Me before men will be denied before the angels of God.

10Koi hileh Mihem Chapa douna thusei chan chu kingaidam ding ahi, amavang koi hileh Lhagao Theng taitom'ah vang chu kingaidam louding ahi.”And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.

11“Chuleh kikhopna in'a vaipo ho leh thuneiho anga athu tan dinga nahin kai tengu leh, iti nakiven ding ham ahilou le ipi nasei ding thu ah lunggim hih un.When you are brought before synagogues, rulers, and authorities, do not worry about how to defend yourselves or what to say.

12Ajeh chu Lhagao Theng chun apettah a seiding napeh diu ahi,” ati.For at that time the Holy Spirit will teach you what you should say.”

13Chuin koiham khat in mipi lah a kon chun ahin kouvin, “Houhil, kasopipa jah a kapa nei le gou eikihoppina dingin seiyin,” ati.Someone in the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”

14Jesun adonbut in, “Jol, kon nangni kah a thutan'a eipansah a, hiti khati iti kagel lhah ding ham?” ati.But Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed Me judge or executor between you?”

15Chuin aman aseiben, “Chingtheiyun! Neipap kiloset kiti jouseah kivengun. Hinkho hi nanei jat a kisim ahipoi,” ati.And He said to them, “Watch out! Guard yourselves against every form of greed, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”

16Chuin aman thusim khat aseipeh tai: “Mihao khat hin loumun khat, alei phatah, ga hoi tah-tah sodoh aneijin ahi.Then He told them a parable: “The ground of a certain rich man produced an abundance.

17Amapa achangin akihoulim in, ‘Ipi kabol ding hitam? Ka lousoh ga jouse koina ding mun la kanei pon,’ ati.So he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, since I have nowhere to store my crops?’

18Chuin aman aseijin, 'Kahetai! Ka changsal jouse phelha'ng ting asanga lenjo cheh thahsah inge. Chutileh keiman ka chang le mim jouse kholkhomna ding dan ninglhingset in nei tange.'Then he said, ‘This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and will build bigger ones, and there I will store up all my grain and my goods.

19Chutengleh keima nomtah a katouva keima le keiman hitia hi kasei ding ahi, “Kajol, nangman kum sottah a ding ninglhing set a kikhol khom naneiye. Tun lung olmo hih in! nen lang, don'in lang, chule kipah in!” tinge ati.Then I will say to myself, “You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take it easy. Eat, drink, and be merry!”’

20“Ahivangin Pathen'in amapa jah a chun, 'Mingol! Tujan ma-ma'a nathi ding ahitai. Chutengleh nanatoh ga jouse hi koi chang tantem?' ati.But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be required of you. Then who will own what you have accumulated?’

21“Henge, lei gouthil bouseh kholkhom'a Pathen toh haosatah a kiguijopna neilou mi chu angol ahi” ati.This is how it will be for anyone who stores up treasure for himself but is not rich toward God.”

22Chuin, aseijui te kom lang ngan Jesun aseitai, “Hiche jeh a hi keiman nitin hinkho a dingin lunggim hih un kati ahi—neh le chah ninglhing set a chule sil le chen lhingset a kanei ding hinam tin.Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat, or about your body, what you will wear.

23Ajeh chu hinkho hi anneh ding sanga lujo, chule natahsa jong sil le chen sanga lujo ahi.For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes.

24Va-ah ho khu veuvin, ama hon tula atu pouvin, at la a-at pouvin ahilou le khol la akholkhom pouvin, ajeh chu Pathen'in avahnai. Chule nangho vacha ho sanga ama dinga loupijo nahiuve!Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storehouse or barn; yet God feeds them. How much more valuable you are than the birds!

25Nalunggim nau jousen nahinkho phatbih khat ajopbe theiyem?Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

26Chule lunggim nan imacha chutobang thil neocha jong alolhin sah theilou leh, thil lentah chunga jong lunggim chu ipi phachom ding ham?”So if you cannot do such a small thing, why do you worry about the rest?

27“Lily pah ho le akhan doh dan khu veuvin. Ama hon na jong atong pouvin chule avon hou jong akisem thei pouvin, ahin, Solomon jeng jong, aloupina jouse a akivon chun amaho tobang lom'in ahoijou poi.Consider how the lilies grow: They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory was adorned like one of these.

28Chuleh Pathen'in pahcha ho tunia uma jinga meilhum sunga selut ding bon kidangtah a akhohsah a ahileh, aman nangma thon louva na khohsah tei-tei ding ahi. Ipi bol'a hibanga tahsanna neo hi naneiyu ham?”If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith!

29“Chuleh ipi kaneh ding ham ipi kadon ding ham tin lungboi hih un. Hiche ho thil'a chun lunggim hih un.And do not be concerned about what you will eat or drink. Do not worry about it.

30Hiche thil ho hin vannoi pumpia atahsanlou ho lungsung alodim'in ahi, ahivangin Napauvin na ngaichat chengseu chu ahemasa jitai.For the Gentiles of the world strive after all these things, and your Father knows that you need them.

31Pathen Lenggam chu thil jouse sangin hol'un, chule aman na ngaichat chan'u napeh diu ahi.”But seek His kingdom, and these things will be added unto you.

32“Hijeh chun kicha hih un, hon lhom ho. Ajeh chu nangho lenggam peh ding hi napau dinga kipana lentah ahi.”Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father is pleased to give you the kingdom.

33“Nanei nagou ho joh un lang angaicha ho peuvin. Hichun van'a gou nakhol peh dingu ahi! Chule van gam a sumdip hon chultih anei pouvin chule atovong aum khapoi. Nagou khol chu bitkeiya um ding ahi; guchan jong aguhmang theilou ding ahi chule nget in jong asuhset theilou ding ahi.Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide yourselves with purses that will not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys.

34Nanei nagou umna'a chu nalung ngaichat jong aum ding ahi.”For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

35“Natohna dingin kivontup san umun chule na thaomei vah jing'un;Be dressed for service and keep your lamps burning.

36na Pakai pa moupui golvah na a kon ahung kile ding nanga bangin. Chutileh ahung lhun'a kot ahinsuh tengleh kot nahonpeh a nalutsah theina dia phasadema naum ding ahi.Then you will be like servants waiting for their master to return from the wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks, they can open the door for him at once.

37Soh ho kiging jinga umho le ahung kile ding ngah jing ho chu kipaman kipe diu ahi. Thutah kaseipeh nahiuve, ama tah in amaho chu atousah ding, atai akikhi ding, amaho chu atou uva aneh laiyuva chu ajen ding ahi!Blessed are those servants whom the master finds on watch when he returns. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve and will have them recline at the table, and he himself will come and wait on them.

38Ama jankim lah ahilou le khovah kon'a hung maithei ahi. Ahin, ahung pet a kiging jinga um sohte chu kipaman apeh ding ahiuve.”Even if he comes in the second or third watch of the night and finds them alert, those servants will be blessed.

39“Hiche hi hethem in, in-neipan itih phatchet a gucha hung ding ham ti heleh, aman a-in chu veihonga aumsah louding ahi.But understand this: If the homeowner had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into.

40Nangjong kiging jinga naum jing ding ahi ijeh inem itile Mihem Chapa chu naginchat lou pettah uva hung ding ahi,” ati.You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you do not expect.”

41Peter in adongin, “Pakai hiche thutekah chu keihoa ding bou hai mijousea ding ham?” ati.“Lord,” said Peter, “are You addressing this parable to us, or to everyone else as well?”

42Chuin Pakaijin adonbut in, “Soh kitah le lung limgeh chu apakai pan insung pumpi le sohdang ho chunga jong mopohna apeh a avahsah ho chu ahi.And the Lord answered, “Who then is the faithful and wise manager, whom the master puts in charge of his servants to give them their portion at the proper time?

43Apakai pa ahung kile a asohpan na phatah a atoh ahung mu leh, kipaman um ding ahi.Blessed is that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns.

44Thutah ka seipeh nahiuve, hitobang soh chu apakai pan anei jouse chunga mopohna apeh ding ahi.Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.

45Ahinlah, iti tantem asohpa chun, 'Kapakai pa hi tem'in hung ponte' tin gel henlang, asoh dang ho vohen, neh nom nehen, ju kham kham jeng taleh?But suppose that servant says in his heart, ‘My master will be a long time in coming,’ and he begins to beat the menservants and maidservants, and to eat and drink and get drunk.

46Apakai pa chu seiphong masalou leh ginchat umlou pettah in hungin tin, chuteng aman asohpa chu asat goi goi ding mikitahlou ho toh asolmang tha ding ahitai.”The master of that servant will come on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not anticipate. Then he will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the unbelievers.

47“Chule soh khat apakai pa dei he'a, ahivanga kigongtup lou chule akihilchahna ho tongdoh lou chu, nasatah a bolgimna ato ding ahi.That servant who knows his master’s will but does not get ready or follow his instructions will be beaten with many blows.

48Ahivanga ahelou khattou chun thilse abol leh, ama chu gihsa louva kigimbol ding ahi. Koiham khat chu tamtah akipeh le, ama a konna chu tamtah kile ngeh ding ahi; chuleh khattou chu mopohna tamtah akipeh le, asanga tamjo chu kingeh ding ahi.”But the one who unknowingly does things worthy of punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and from him who has been entrusted with much, even more will be demanded.

49“Keima vannoi hi meiya tih dinga kahung ahi, chule akoudoh hitaleh kati lheh jenge!I have come to ignite a fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!

50Keiman thoh hahsa tah baptize chan ding kamakho'ah kaneiye chule hichu akimolso kah a kalung khamna iti san tam!But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!

51Leiset a chamna hinpo dinga hunga nei gel'um? Ahipoi, keima miho kibung khensah dia hung'ah kahi!Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but division.

52Tu apat a insung ho kikhentel diu ahitai, thum'in eijop uva, nin eidoudal ding–ahilou le nin eijop a thum'in eidou ding ahi.From now on, five in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three.

53'Mipa chu chapa douna a chule chapa chu mipa douna a kibungkhen ding ahi; chanu douna minu chule minu douna a chanu; chuleh ateh in mou douna chule mouvin ateh douna a kikhenna um ding ahi'” ati.They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.”

54Chuin Jesun mihonpi lam aven aseiye, “Nanghon meibol lhumlam langa ahung umdoh phat le, nasei jiuvin, ‘Go hung juding ahi’ natiuve. Chuleh nangho nadih uve.Then Jesus said to the crowds, “As soon as you see a cloud rising in the west, you say, ‘A shower is coming,’ and that is what happens.

55Lhanglam hui ahung nun tengleh, nasei jiuvin, ‘Tuni chu salheh ding ahi’ natiuvin, chule achuti ji'e.And when the south wind blows, you say, ‘It will be hot,’ and it is.

56Nangho mingol ho! Nanghon leiset chunga van umje nasuto theiyun, ahin nang hon tuphat umdan na ledoh thei pouve.”You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and sky. Why don’t you know how to interpret the present time?

57“Ipi jeh a nangho dinga adih chu naki gellhah theilou uham?And why don’t you judge for yourselves what is right?

58Nangho thukitanna mun'a nahehse hou toh nache tengu leh, amun nalhun masangin kihoutohpi ding gon. Achuti louleh thutan vaihompa masanga nahehse pan nakai ding, aman vaipopa henga napehdoh a, aman songkul'a nakhum ding ahi.Make every effort to reconcile with your adversary while you are on your way to the magistrate. Otherwise, he may drag you off to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and the officer may throw you into prison.

59Chule hichu aso leh nangman achainapen sum geiya napeh doh masang sea itinama jongleh nakilhadoh louhel ding ahi,” ati.I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the very last penny.”
