Mark 12 (TCZCHONG)

1Chuin Jesun thulem in thu ahil pantan: “Mikhatnin lengpilei abolin, akimvel ah pal agenin ahi. Chuin achilna ding khuh alaiyin, insang asan, chuin alei lhouho khut ah lousan dingin apedoh in gam dangah achetan ahi.Then Jesus began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a wine vat, and built a watchtower. Then he rented it out to some tenants and went away on a journey.

2Aga lo phat ahi phat in ama chan ding chu ladingin alei lhouho henga asoh ho khat asoltai.At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard.

3Hinlah alei lhouho chun amapa chu amanun avouvin, khutgoh keovin ahin soldoh tauve.But they seized the servant, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.

4Chuin lou neipan asohho khat asol kit leh ama jong chu ajumso uvin, alu ahin vohpeh uve.Then he sent them another servant, and they struck him over the head and treated him shamefully.

5Chujouvin achom khat asol kit in ahile ama chu ahin that tauve. Chule adang asol ho jong abang ahin vouvin, abang ahin that un ahi.He sent still another, and this one they killed. He sent many others; some they beat and others they killed.

6Asol thei ding khat bou aum tan, ama chu achapa deitah chu ahi. Lou neipan achaina keiyin, ‘Kachapa ahijeh in ana jabol nauvinte,’ tin ama chu asoltan ahi.”Finally, having one beloved son, he sent him to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.

7“Ahinlah alei lhouho chu akihouvun, ‘Veuvin, agamngah ding, agoulo ding pa ahunge. Thatdoh utin agam hi eiho chang taute,’ akitiuvin ahi.But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’

8Chuin aman'un, athat un along chu lengpilei polam'ah alehdoh tauvin ahi.”So they seized the son, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.

9“Hichan gei chu ahitah leh lengpilei neipa chun alei lhouho chu ilotante tia nagel uvem?” tin adong'e. “Na seipeh unge—ama hungin tin alei lhouho chu sugam intin lengpilei chu midang pedoh tante.What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others.

10Thubua kisun: ‘Insa hon adeimo uva apaiyu song chu inning songin apang tan,Have you never read this Scripture: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.

11hiche hi Pakai thilbol ahin, vet dingin avetlom lheh e,’ tia kisun chu na simdoh khah hih uvem?” tin adonge.This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?”

12Chupet a um hou lamkaiho chun—alei lhou migilou ho chu amaho toh kitekahna'a kisei ahi tin agel tauvin, Jesu chu mat ding ago tauvin ahi. Ahinlah mipi ho akichat kit jeh uvin, adalha uvin achemang tauve.At this, the leaders sought to arrest Jesus, for they knew that He had spoken this parable against them. But fearing the crowd, they left Him and went away.

13Chomkhat jouvin lamkaiho chun thua themmo chansah a mattheina dingin Pharisee ho phabep khat le Herod miho phabep chu Jesu thudoh bol dingin asol un ahi.Later, they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to catch Jesus in His words.

14Hichun agacheuvin, “Houhil, Nangma midih nahin, koima gin na neipoi. Dihtah a Pathen lampi chu nahil ahi chu kaheuve. Ahile nei seipeh un—Caesar kai kapeh uhi dihthei ding hinam ahilou le dihlou ding ham?“Teacher,” they said, “we know that You are honest and seek favor from no one. Indeed, You are impartial and teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not? Should we pay them or not?”

15Kapeh diu ham, kapehlou diu ham?” agati uve. Jesun aphatlhem nau chu amudoh in, adonbutnan, “Ibola nei lunglah uham? Romte dangka pumkhat hin choiyun lang nei vetsah un, chule na seipeh uvinge,” ati.But Jesus saw through their hypocrisy and said, “Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a denarius to inspect.”

16Ahin choi phat un, Jesun aven, “Hichea kinam hi koi lim le koi min ham?” tia adoh leh, ama hon “Caesar a ahi,” atiuvin ahi.So they brought it, and He asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.

17Chuin Jesun, “Chuti ahile aphai, Caesar a chu Caesar peuvin lang, Pathen'a chu Pathen peuvin,” atipeh tai. Adonbutna chu adatmo lheh jengun ahi.Then Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” And they marveled at Him.

18Chujouvin Sadducee—mithi thokitna aumpoi tiho—chu ahengah ahungun, ajah a thudoh aneiyun,Then the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and questioned Him:

19“Houhil, Mose’n eithupeh dungjuiyun mi khat touvin cha nei louva ajinu adalhah a, athi tah a ahile, asopipa chun ajinu chu vehen lang asopipa phunggui aman louna ding chun chi khaipeh hen tin akiseiye.“Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man is to marry his brother’s widow and raise up offspring for him.

20Achutile, tekahnan ucha pasal sagi aum'e. Amasapen pa chun ji aneijin chikhai louvin athitai.Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died, leaving no children.

21Aban'a pan amanu chu jin aneijin chikhai louvin athin, athumna pa jong chutima chu ahin,Then the second one married the widow, but he also died and left no children. And the third did likewise.

22Hiti chun akitol suhpeh tauvin, asagi uvin chikhailou ahi tauve. Achainan numeinu jong chu athitai.In this way, none of the seven left any children. And last of all, the woman died.

23Ahileh tun nei seipeh un, thokit nia amanu chu alah uva koipen ji hitan tem? Ijeh-inem iti leh asagiuva amanu chu jia anei cheh u ahitai,” atiuve.In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”

24Jesun adonbut in, “Na suhkhel'u chu Pathen thubua thu kisei na hethem pouvin chule Pathen thaneina nahet lou uhi ahi.Jesus said to them, “Aren’t you mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God?

25Ijeh-inem iti leh mithiho athodoh tengu chule ji anei tahlou diu chujongleh kichensahna um talou ding ahi. Hiche thudol'a hi van'a Vantil te tobang hi ding ahi tauve.”When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven.

26“Ahileh, mithiho kaithouva aum diu thudol hi—Mose'n hamboh meikou thudol asutna-ah, Abraham, Isaac chule Jacob thi jou khonungpeh a Pathen'in Mose kom'a, ‘Keima Abraham Pathen, Isaac Pathen chule Jacob Pathen kahi,’ tia asei thu chu sim khalou nahiuvem?But concerning the dead rising, have you not read about the burning bush in the Book of Moses, how God told him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?

27Chu dungjuiya chu ama ahingho Pathen ahin, athihoa ahipoi. Nanghon thu hettohlou suhkhelna lentah naneiyu ahitai,” ati.He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!”

28Chua houdan thuhil ho lah a khat in akihou nau chu anajan, Jesun kichentah a ahil chu ahechen in, hijeh chun aman Jesu jah a, “Thupeh jouse lah a hoiche pen hi thupi pen ham?” tin adongtai.Now one of the scribes had come up and heard their debate. Noticing how well Jesus had answered them, he asked Him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?”

29Jesun adonbut in, “Thupeh pipen chu hiche hi ahi: ‘Ngaiyun, Vo Israel! Pakai I-Pathen uhi ama bou Pakai ahi.Jesus replied, “This is the most important: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.

30Nangman Pakai na Pathen chu, nalung pumpi, nahinna pumpi, na ngaitona pumpi chule na thaneina jousea na ngailut mong-mong ding ahi.’Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’

31Anina jong kibangchet in athupin ahi, hichu: ‘Nangma na kingailut bangin naheng nakom ngailun.’ Hiche teni sanga thupijo thupeh dang aumpoi,” ati.The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.”

32Hou dan thuhil pan adonbut in, “Na seihoi ngeiye, Houhil. Nangman thudih tah in thu na seiyin Pathen khat seh bou aum'e, Pathen dang aumpoi nati-e.“Right, Teacher,” the scribe replied. “You have stated correctly that God is One and there is no other but Him,

33Chule Pathen chu lungthim pumpi, khohet theina pumpi le thanei jousea ngailut ding ahi chu kahen, chule eima ikingailut banga iheng ikom ngailut ding jong chu kahei. Hichu ganpum goa kilhaina le longlhenna sangin gamchengin aphajoi,” ati.and to love Him with all your heart and with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself. This is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

34Dan thuhil pan kichen tah a adonbut ajah phat in Jesun ajah a aseijin, “Nangma Pathen Lenggam toh na kigamlat poi,” atipeh tai. Chukal chun koiman thudang adongngam tapoi.When Jesus saw that the man had answered wisely, He said, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And no one dared to question Him any further.

35Phat chomkhat jouvin, Jesun Hou-In sunga thu ahil pet in miho adongin, “Dan thusun hon Messiah chu iti David chapa ahi atiu hintem?While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts, He asked, “How can the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?

36Ijeh-inem iti leh Lhagao Thengin ahil a kon'in David jengin jong, ‘Pakaijin ka Pakai jah ah, jabolna mun'ah kajet lamin touvin na melmate cheng nakeng chotphaa kanei sah masangsen,’ anatin ahi.Speaking by the Holy Spirit, David himself declared: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand until I put Your enemies under Your feet.”’

37David ama tah in Messiah chu 'ka Pakai,' asah in, achutileh Messiah chu achapa iti hithei ding ham?” atin ahi. Mipi chun Jesu thusei chu thanom tah in angaiyui.David himself calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?” And the large crowd listened to Him with delight.

38Jesun aseibe kit in, “Dan thusun hoa kon'in kihong phauvin! Ajeh chu ama hon sangkhol chol kiah a kholai lenna chule kailhanga min chibai aboh diu athanoppi uve.In His teaching Jesus also said, “Watch out for the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, to receive greetings in the marketplaces,

39Chule kikhopna in le golvahna a touna pipen adeiyui.and to have the chief seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.

40Hinlah kiphatlamna beihelin meithaiho nei le gou lahpehna dingin alhemlha jiuvin, hougut tah bangin japi mutheina ding munhoah sottah-tah taona amang jiuve. Hiche jeh a hi amaho hi gotna sangtah chang diu ahi,” ati.They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.”

41Chuin Jesu Houin sunga sumdolna bom jon'ah atouvin, mipin sumdolna boma sum ale-lut chu aven ahile mihao tamtah in tamtah-tah ale-lut'u amui.As Jesus was sitting opposite the treasury, He watched the crowd putting money into it. And many rich people put in large amounts.

42Chua chun vaicha tah meithainu khat ahungin sumsan nong pumni alehlut in ahi.Then one poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which amounted to a small fraction of a denarius.

43Chuin aseijui te ho akouvin ajah uva, “Tahbeh a kasei ahi, hiche meithai vaichanu hin adang jouse sangin sumdolna ah atam le-lut pen'e.Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more than all the others into the treasury.

44Ijeh-inem itileh adang ho jouse khun aneival ato'u ahin, amanu vang hin aneichasun ahinpi chengse ale-lut jeng ahi,” ati.For they all contributed out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty has put in all she had to live on.”
