¹Now it came to pass on a sabbath, that he was going through the grainfields; and his disciples plucked the ears, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands.

¹Huan, hichi ahi a, Khawlni khatin buh lei khawngah a pai suaka, a nungjuiten buh vuite a khiak ua, a khutpek un a nuai siang ua, a ne ua.

²But certain of the Pharisees said, Why do ye that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath day?

²Huan, Pharisai kuate hiamin, Bangdia Khawlnia hih sianglou hih na hi ua? a chi ua.

³And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read even this, what David did, when he was hungry, he, and they that were with him;

³Huan, Jesun a dawnga, David a gilkial laia a lawmte toh a thil hih uh huai bangte leng na sim kei ua hia?

⁴how he entered into the house of God, and took and ate the showbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat save for the priests alone?

⁴Huchia Pathian ina a luta, siampute loungalin a nek siang louh tanghou koih a laka, a lawmte kianga a piak sam thu, a chi a.

⁵And he said unto them, The Son of man is lord of the sabbath.

⁵Huan, amahmahin, a kiang uah, Mihing Tapa jaw Khawlni Toupa ahi, a chi hi.

⁶And it came to pass on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue and taught: and there was a man there, and his right hand was withered.

⁶Huan, hichi ahi a, Khawlni dangin kikhopna in ah a luta, thu a hilha; huan, huai ah mi khat khut taklam jaw a na oma.

⁷And the scribes and the Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath; that they might find how to accuse him.

⁷Huan, laigelhmite leh Pharisaiten a hekna ding a muh theihna ding un, Khawlniin hihdam dingin a kisa hia kisa lou a simet ua.

⁸But he knew their thoughts; and he said to the man that had his hand withered, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.

⁸Himahleh, aman, a lungsim uh a theia, khutjaw kiang ah, Thou inla, a laiah ding khia in, a chi a. Huan a thou a, a ding khetaa.

⁹And Jesus said unto them, I ask you, Is it lawful on the sabbath to do good, or to do harm? to save a life, or to destroy it?

⁹Huan, Jesun a kiang uah, Khawlniin hihhoih a sianga, hih siat? hotdam a sianga, hihlup? ka hondong ahi, a chi a.

¹⁰And he looked round about on them all, and said unto him, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did [so]: and his hand was restored.

¹⁰Huan, a vek un a en velvela, a kiangah, Na khut zan khia in, a chi a. Huan, a zan khiaa, a khut tuh a damta.

¹¹But they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.

¹¹Huchiin a heh lo mahmah ua, Jesu tunga hihdingdan a kihouta uh.

¹²And it came to pass in these days, that he went out into the mountain to pray; and he continued all night in prayer to God.

¹²Huan, hichi ahi a, huailaiin, a pawta, thum dingin tang ah a kuana, Pathian kiangah jan khuain a thum a.

¹³And when it was day, he called his disciples; and he chose from them twelve, whom also he named apostles:

¹³Huan, khovak takin a nungjuite a sama; a lak uah nih a tela, a min uh leng sawltak a sa hi:

¹⁴Simon, whom he also named Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip and Bartholomew,

¹⁴Huaite tuh Simon Peter a chih leh a unaupa Andru, Jakob leh Johan, Philip leh Bartholomai,

¹⁵and Matthew and Thomas, and James [the son] of Alphaeus, and Simon who was called the Zealot,

¹⁵Matthai leh Thoma, Alphai tapa Jakob,

¹⁶and Judas [the son] of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor;

¹⁶Simon, Zelot kichi leh Jakob tapa Juda leh a mansakpa Juda Iskariot ahi uh.

¹⁷and he came down with them, and stood on a level place, and a great multitude of his disciples, and a great number of the people from all Judaea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;

¹⁷Huan, amau toh a pai khia a, mun jangah a dinga, a nungjuite mipite toh, Judia gam tengteng akipan leh, Jerusalem khua akipan leh, Tura leh Sidon kho lama tuipi gei akipan mipi tampitak a thu ngai nuam leh a damlouhnate uh hihdam utin a hongpai ua;

¹⁸and they that were troubled with unclean spirits were healed.

¹⁸Huchiin, dawi nin bawlgawpte leng damsakin omta uh.

¹⁹And all the multitude sought to touch him; for power came forth from him, and healed [them] all.

¹⁹Huan, a kianga kipan thilhihtheihna pawtkhiaa, mi chih a hidam jel jiakin mipi tengtengin amah khoih a tum ua.

²⁰And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed [are] ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.

²⁰Huan, a dak khia a, a nungjuite enin a gena: Nou gentheite aw, na hampha uhi; Pathian gam noua ahi ngala.

²¹Blessed [are] ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed [are] ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.

²¹Nou tua gilkialte aw, na hampha uhi, tai ding na hi ngal ua. Nou tua kapte aw, na hampha uhi, nui ding na hi ngal ua.

²²Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you [from their company], and reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.

²²Mihing Tapa jiaka miten a honhuat ua, honpampaih ua, hontai ua, na min uh a hoih kei chia a honpaih mang chiang un, na hampha ding uh.

²³Rejoice in that day, and leap [for joy]: for behold, your reward is great in heaven; for in the same manner did their fathers unto the prophets.

²³Huai niin kipak unla, nuamin tawm un, ngai un, van ah na kipahman uh a om kikeih ngal a; huchi bangmahin a pipute un jawlneite tungah a hih uhi.

²⁴But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.

²⁴A hihhangin, nou mi haute aw, na tung uh a gik e; na khamuanna uh na mu khinta ngal ua:

²⁵Woe unto you, ye that are full now! for ye shall hunger. Woe [unto you], ye that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.

²⁵Nou tua vahte aw, na tung uh a gik e; na gil uh hongkial ding ahi ngal a. Nou tua nuite aw; na tung uh a gik e; lungkhama kap ding na hi ngal ua;

²⁶Woe [unto you], when all men shall speak well of you! for in the same manner did their fathers to the false prophets.

²⁶Mi tengtengin a honphat chiang un na tung uh a gik ding hi; huchimahbangin a pipute un jawlnei takloute tungah a hih uhi.

²⁷But I say unto you that hear, Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you,

²⁷Ka thu ngaikhete aw, konhilh ahi, Na melmate uh it unla, a honhote a hoihna ding uh hih un,

²⁸bless them that curse you, pray for them that despitefully use you.

²⁸Hamsia honlohte vualjawl unla, a honsimmohte thum sak un.

²⁹To him that smiteth thee on the [one] cheek offer also the other; and from him that taketh away thy cloak withhold not thy coat also.

²⁹Biang langkhata honbengpa tuh a lehlam leng dohin; huan, na puan honlaksakpa kiangah na puannak leng it ken.

³⁰Give to every one that asketh thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.

³⁰A honngen peuh kiangah pia un; huan, na van honlaksakpa kiangah ngen nawn ken.

³¹And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

³¹Huan, min na tung ua a hih uh na deih ding bang jel un mi tungah leng hih sam un.

³²And if ye love them that love you, what thank have ye? for even sinners love those that love them.

³²Huan, a honitte kia na it un, pahtak bang na loh ding ua? mikhialten leng amau itte a it sam ve ua oi.

³³And if ye do good to them that do good to you, what thank have ye? for even sinners do the same.

³³Huan, na tung ua hoihte tung kiaa na hoih un, pahtak bang na loh ding ua? mikhialten leng huchibangmahin a hih jel ve ua oi.

³⁴And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? even sinners lend to sinners, to receive again as much.

³⁴Huan, muh nawn lametnate kiang kiaa thil na leitawi sak un, pahtak bang na loh ding ua? mikhialten leng a ngeingei mu nawn dingin mikhialte kiangah a leitawisak sam ngal ua.

³⁵But love your enemies, and do [them] good, and lend, never despairing; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be sons of the Most High: for he is kind toward the unthankful and evil.

³⁵A hihhangin na melmate uh it unla, a hoihna ding un hih unla, leitawi sak un, lunglel het lou in; huchiin na kipah man uh a tam dia, Tungnungpen tate na hi ding uh; aman mi kipahnadantheiloute leh migiloute a hehpih naknak hi.

³⁶Be ye merciful, even as your Father is merciful.

³⁶Na Pa un mi a hehpih bangin mi hehpih sam un.

³⁷And judge not, and ye shall not be judged: and condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: release, and ye shall be released:

³⁷Hawmsak kei un, huchiin hawmsakin na om kei ding uh; kuamah siamlouin sep dah un, huchiin siamlouhin na om kei ding uh; ngaidam un, huchiin ngaihdamin na om ding uh;

³⁸give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall they give into your bosom. For with what measure ye mete it shall be measured to you again.

³⁸Pia un, huchiin, piakin na om ding uh, hoihtaka teha, hen gaka, sin gaka, let nawinawiin na angsung uah piakin na om ding uh. Noumau tehna ngei maha tehsaka piak hi ding na hi ngal ua, a chi a.

³⁹And he spake also a parable unto them, Can the blind guide the blind? shall they not both fall into a pit?

³⁹Huan, a kiang uah, gentehnain a gen a, Mittawin mittaw mah a pi thei diam? a nih un kokhuk ah a ke khawm kei ding ua hia?

⁴⁰The disciple is not above his teacher: but every one when he is perfected shall be as his teacher.

⁴⁰Nungjui tuh a heutupa tungah a om kei; himahleh mi chih a siamkim chiang un a heutupa bangin a om ding uh.

⁴¹And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

⁴¹Huan, bangdia, na mita singtum om limsak loua, na unau mita ninneng neuchik om mu na hia?

⁴²Or how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me cast out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.

⁴²Nangmah mita singtum om mu lou piin, na unau kianga, Unau, na mita ninneng neuchik om honla khesak ve, bangchia chi thei na hia? Mi lepchiah: na mit apat singtum la khe masa in, huchiin na unau mita ninneng neuchik lak khiak ding tuh chiantakin na mu thei ding.

⁴³For there is no good tree that bringeth forth corrupt fruit; nor again a corrupt tree that bringeth forth good fruit.

⁴³Sing hoih himhim gah siaa gah a om ngei kei; sing sia lah gah hoiha gah a om ngei sam kei.

⁴⁴For each tree is known by its own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.

⁴⁴Sing chih amau gah chiatah a kithei hi. Min khau lingnei kungah theipi a lou ngei kei uh, lingnok lakah grep gah a loungei sam kei uh.

⁴⁵The good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and the evil [man] out of the evil [treasure] bringeth forth that which is evil: for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

⁴⁵Mi hoihin a lungtang gou bawm hoih akipan thil hoihte a honla khe jela; mi gilouin a lungtang gou bawm sia akipan thil hoihloute a honla khe jel hi; a lungtanga dim val tuh a kamin a gen jel ngala.

⁴⁶And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?

⁴⁶Huan, nou bang dinga, ka gente hih loupi a, Toupa, Toupa, honchi nahi ua?

⁴⁷Every one that cometh unto me, and heareth my words, and doeth them, I will show you to whom he is like:

⁴⁷Mi chih ka kianga honga, ka thu jaa mang peuhmah kua bang ahi ua, ka honen sak ding:

⁴⁸he is like a man building a house, who digged and went deep, and laid a foundation upon the rock: and when a flood arose, the stream brake against that house, and could not shake it: because it had been well builded.

⁴⁸In lammi, thukpia tou a, suangpi tou a, suangpi tunga suangphum lemmi bang ahi uh; huan, tui a hongkhanin, tui khauhin huai in tuha khoh a, a hihling theikeia, hoihtaka lam a hih jiakin.A hihhangin, jaa mang lou tuh, suangphum lou a, leitung maimaha in lammi ahi; huan, tui khauhin huai tuh a khoh a, a chim paha; huai in siatna tuh thupi tak ahi, a chi a.

⁴⁹But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that built a house upon the earth without a foundation; against which the stream brake, and straightway it fell in; and the ruin of that house was great.

⁴⁹A hihhangin, jaa mang lou tuh, suangphum lou a, leitung maimaha in lammi ahi; huan, tui khauhin huai tuh a khoh a, a chim paha; huai in siatna tuh thupi tak ahi, a chi a.
