Matthew 13 (TCZCHONG)

1Chujouvin hiche ni chun Jesun in chu adalhan chule dillen pama chun atouvin ahi.That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the sea.

2Mihonpi akimvela aki khom un, hiti chun ama kong khat a alut e. Chuche mun'a chun atouvin chule mihonpi vapama umho chu thu ahil tai.Such large crowds gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat down, while all the people stood on the shore.

3Aman thulem tampi mangchan amaho chu thusim tampi ahil in, hiche thusim hi aseiye: “Ngaiyun! Loubol mi khat muchi the dingin aga potdoh e.And He told them many things in parables, saying, “A farmer went out to sow his seed.

4Chule aman muchi chu loulaiya athea ahileh, muchi phabep chu lampia a-chu in ahileh vacha ho ahungun anejou tauve.And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.

5Muchi dang phabep chu songlheu chung lei patna a achutai. Lei apat jeh chun muchi chu ahung kehdoh loichel in ahi.Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.

6Hinlah nisa ahung satan ahileh, leiset a chu ajung alut thuh lou jeh in asang gop pai jengin ahi.But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.

7Muchi dang phabep ma chu ling lah a a-chu in ling chu akhangin chule chang phung dong nalai chu adeplih tai.Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings.

8Hinlah muchi adang chengse vang leiphatna a a chu in chule hiche ho chu ajat somthum, ajat somgup chule ajat jakhat chan geijin apung uvin ahi!Still other seed fell on good soil and produced a crop—a hundredfold, sixtyfold, or thirtyfold.

9Khojahna ding nakol nei ami chang cheh in angaiya chule ahetkhen angaiye,” ati.He who has ears, let him hear.”

10Aseijui te ahungun chule adong uvin, “Iti dana nangman miho thu nahil tengleh thulem naseiji ham?” atiuve.Then the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Why do You speak to the people in parables?”

11Aman adonbut in, “Nangho hi Van'a Lenggam thuguh hettheina kipea nahi tauve, hinlah amaho kipe lou ahiuve.He replied, “The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them.

12Ka thuhil ngai ho chu hetkhen na kipehbe ding chule ama hon hetna bulhingset anei diu ahi. Hinlah ka thuhil ngaisah louho chu hetna phabep aneiyu jong chu kilah mangpeh nalai diu ahi.Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.

13Hijeh a chu hiche thulemho hi Ka manchah ahi, Ajeh chu ama hon avet vang uva amu tahbeh lou dingu ahi. Ajah uva ahivanga angaiyu chu hetdohna tahbeh neilou ding ahiuve.”This is why I speak to them in parables: ‘Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand.’

14Hiche hi Isaiah themgao thusei, 'Ipi kasei najah tengu leh hetkhenna nanei theilou diu ahi. Ka thilbol namu tengu leh, geldohna nanei theilou dingu ahi.In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled: ‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.

15Ajeh chu hiche mite hi alunggel'u atah cheh in, chule akol'uva khojahna aumpoi chule ama hon amit asing uvin, amit un kho amu tapon, chule anakol uvin kho ajapon, chule alungun hetkhenna aneipon, chule keiman ka suhdam theina dingin kaheng lama ahung kihei pouve.'For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’

16“Hinlah namit teni uvin amu jeh un, namit-u mit vangpha ahi chule na nakol teni uvin ajah jeh un, nakol vangpha ahi.But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.

17Thutahbeh ka seipeh nahiuve, themgao tamtah le michonpha tamtah in namu uhi amu nomun, hinlah amu pouve. Chule thu najah chengseu hi ajah nomun, hinlah ajahlou u ahitai.”For truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.

18“Tuhin loubolpa chun amuchi the ahilchetna ngaiyuvin:Consider, then, the parable of the sower:

19Lampia chu-ah muchin avetsah chu Lenggam thu kihil ja'a, ahivanga hechen louho ahiuve. Chujouvin agiloupa chu ahungin chule alungsung uva kitulut muchi chu ahung lamang jitai.When anyone hears the message of the kingdom but does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path.

20Songlheu chunga chua muchi hin thu kisei chu ngaiya chule apet petna kipah tah a sanga mitoh tekah thei ahi.The seed sown on rocky ground is the one who hears the word and at once receives it with joy.

21Hinlah ajung athuh loujeh in ahingsot tapoi. Amaho chun hahsatna ato tengu leh ahilouleh Pathen Thu jeh a gim bolna ato tengu leh alhamangji tauve.But since he has no root, he remains for only a season. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, he quickly falls away.

22Muchi ling lah a chu ho chu Pathen Thu ja a ahia tu hinlai vannoi lunggimna ho leh, haona ngaichatna ho jeh in gaso louvin aumji tai.The seed sown among the thorns is the one who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

23Muchi lei phatna a chuho vang thu chu atahbeh a ja a chule hetchetna nei ahiuvin, chule amaho chun ajat som thum, ajat som gup chule ajat jakhat ahin sodoh e!” ati.But the seed sown on good soil is the one who hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and produces a crop—a hundredfold, sixtyfold, or thirtyfold.”

24Jesun thusim jatchom khat hichea hin aseiye: “Van gam chu loubolmi khat in alouva muchi pha athea toh tekah thei ahi.Jesus put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.

25Hinlah chuche jan chun natong ho aihmut pet un, melmapa chu ahungin chuin changtah lah a chun changlhem ahung then, achemang tai.But while everyone was asleep, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and slipped away.

26Changphung ahung khanlhit phat in, aga jong ahung um'in chule changlhem jong chu ahung khanglen in ahi.”When the wheat sprouted and bore grain, then the weeds also appeared.

27“Loubolpa natong ho akom'a agacheuvin, chuin ajah a, ‘Hepu, louva muchipha nathe na'a khun changlhem akeh dimset! Hoiya kon iti hung um hintem?’” atiuve.The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’

28“‘Melma khat in abol hichu!’ tin loubolpa chun ahin phongdoh tai. ‘Changlhem ho kaga bodoh dingu ham?’ tin adong uve.‘An enemy did this,’ he replied. So the servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’

29'Ahipoi, chutia nabol uleh changtah bodoh tha get uvin nate.‘No,’ he said, ‘if you pull the weeds now, you might uproot the wheat with them.

30A at phat lhinkah in khantha jengu hen. Chuteng keiman chang at ho jah a changlhem chu lhengdoh unlang, kan khomun chule meiya halvam un, chule changtah chu changkul'a khum uvin tinange,'” ati.Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat into my barn.’”

31Hichea hin vetsahna chom khat Jesun amange: “Van'a Lenggam chu ankam mu louva kithe tobang ahi.He put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a man took and planted in his field.

32Muchi jouse lah a aneopen ahi, hinlah hon a kitu lah a aphung lenpen ahung hitan, ahung khanglen in, thingphung ahung kisoh in, chule vacha ho ahungun chuin abah hoa abu akiset uvin ahi,” ati.Although it is the smallest of all seeds, yet it grows into the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches.”

33Jesun hiche thulem jong hi aseijin: “Van'a Lenggam hi numei khat in changlhah semna dinga chol aman tobang ahi. Ama hin chol neocha chu changbong tetohna thum'a akoi jeng vangin, changbong chu apumpin apomsah sohhel in ahi.” ati.He told them still another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and mixed into three measures of flour, until all of it was leavened.”

34Jesun mihonpi lah a thu aseina a thusim le thulem hitobang ho hi amangcha jingin ahi. Ahimongin hitobang thulem mangcha louvin amaho kom'a thu asei jipoi.Jesus spoke all these things to the crowds in parables. He did not tell them anything without using a parable.

35Hiche hi Pathen'in Themgao kam'a anaseisa: “Keiman nakom uva thulema kasei ding, Keiman vannoi kisem pat apat thuguh kisel kahilchet peh ding ahi,” ti aguilhunna ahi.So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: “I will open My mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden since the foundation of the world.”

36Chuin mihonpi chu polama adalhan, Jesu chu insung agalut in ahileh aseijui ten, “Changlhem loulaiya um thulem chu nei hilchet peh un,” atiuve.Then Jesus dismissed the crowds and went into the house. His disciples came to Him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.”

37Jesun adonbut in, “Mihem Chapa chu muchipha the loubolpa chu ahi.He replied, “The One who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.

38Lou chu vannoi leiset ahi, chule muchipha chu Lenggam mite ahiuve. Changlhem chu agiloupa mite ho ahiuve.The field is the world, and the good seed represents the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,

39Melma changlhem changtah lah a thepa chu Diabol ahi. Chang-at phat chu vannoi kichaina phat ahi, chule chang-at ho chu Vantil te ahiuve.”and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.

40“Changlhem ho lhendoh a aum'uva chule meiya akigo banga chu, vannoi kichaini jongleh chuti ding ahi.As the weeds are collected and burned in the fire, so will it be at the end of the age.

41Mihem Chapa chun a Vantil te ahinsol ding, chule amaho chun Lenggam a kon chonset hin umdohsah ho le thilse bol jouse asuhmang dingu ahi.The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will weed out of His kingdom every cause of sin and all who practice lawlessness.

42Chule Vantil ho chun amaho chu meikou jejua chu alelut dingu, hichea chu kana chule hagelna um ding ahi.And they will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

43Chuteng michonpha ho chengse a Pau Lenggam sunga nisa tobanga vah ding ahiuve. Thungaina ding nakol neiya chun ngaiyu hen chule heuhen!”Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.

44“Van'a Lenggam chu mikhat in loulaiya gou kiselguh amudoh tobang ahi. Kipah thanom pum'in aselkit in chule anei jouse chu ajoh doh in asum neisun chun lou chu achotai.”The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and in his joy he went and sold all he had and bought that field.

45“Chujongleh Van'a Lenggam chu kivei mi khat in twikoh chang manlutah ahol tobang ahi.Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls.

46Aman twikoh chang manlutah chu amudoh phat in anei jouse ajoh doh in, chule lou chu achotai!”When he found one very precious pearl, he went away and sold all he had and bought it.

47“Chule Van'a Lenggam chu ngamatna len twilah a kiseplha a chule nga jouse man tobang ahi.Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea and caught all kinds of fish.

48Len chu adimset phat in, hichu vapama aloidoh uvin, atou khomun chule nga aphaho chu aboma akoiyun, hinlah aphalou ho chu apaimang tauve.When it was full, the men pulled it ashore. Then they sat down and sorted the good fish into containers, but threw the bad away.

49Vannoi kichaini jongleh chuti ding ahi. Vantil ho hung uvin tin michonpha hoa konna migilou ho ahin chomkhen doh dingu ahi.So will it be at the end of the age: The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous

50Miphalou ho chu mei deujeju sunga chun lehlut uvin tin, hichea chu kana le hagelna um ding ahi.and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

51Hiche ho hi aboncha nahet nah uvem?” atileh ama hon “Henge,” atiuve.Have you understood all these things?” “Yes,” they answered.

52Chujouvin aman aseiben, “Van'a Lenggama hou thuhil'a pang seijui hung hiho hi, innei pan anei kholna mun'a konna Thutah gou alui le athah ahin pohdoh tobang ahi,” ati.Then He told them, “For this reason, every scribe who has been discipled in the kingdom of heaven is like a homeowner who brings out of his storeroom new treasures as well as old.”

53Hiche thusimho le vetsahna ho ahil jouvin, aman chuche gam chu adalhan,When Jesus had finished these parables, He withdrew from that place.

54Achenna khopi Nazareth lama ahung kile tai. Aman amaho hou kikhopna in'a thu ahil pet in amitakip in adatmo uvin chule aseiyun, “Hoiya konna hiche chihna le thil kidang boltheina hoiya thaneina akilah ahidem?” tin asei uve.Coming to His hometown, He taught the people in their synagogue, and they were astonished. “Where did this man get such wisdom and miraculous powers?” they asked.

55ama hon anoise bol uvin, “Ama thingthembol chapa ahi, anu Mary le asopi pasal ho—James, Joseph, Simon le Judah abonun ihecheh uve.“Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t His mother’s name Mary, and aren’t His brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas?

56Asopi numeiho jouse jong ilah uva aum cheh uvin. Hiche ho jouse hi hoiya konna akihetdoh hintem?” atiuvin ahi.Aren’t all His sisters with us as well? Where then did this man get all these things?”

57Chuin amaho chu hatah in alunglha lheh uvin, chule Ama atahsan nom tapouve. Chuphat in Jesun amaho aseipeh in, “Themgao chu ama insung le akhopia mite lah tilouvin mun jousea jabolna achange,” ati.And they took offense at Him. But Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”

58Chuin ama hon atahsan lou jeh uvin thil kidang themkhat bou aboltai.And He did not do many miracles there, because of their unbelief.
