¹In that hour came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

¹Huai laitakin nungjuite Jesu kiangah a hongpai ua, Vangamah kua a thupipen dia le? A chi ua.

²And he called to him a little child, and set him in the midst of them,

²Huan, aman tuh naupang neu chik a sama; a lak uah a ding saka.

³and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye turn, and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.

³Chihtaktakin ka honchi ahi, Na lamdan ua, naupang neuchik bang na honghih kei uleh, vangam ah na lut kei hial ding uh.

⁴Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

⁴Huchi in, kuapeuh hiai naupang neu chik banga kingainiam, huai mi tuh vangam ah a thupipen ding.

⁵And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me:

⁵Huan kuapeuh ka min jiaka hichi bang naupang neu chik khat kipahpih tuh keimah honkipahpih ahi ding.

⁶But whoso shall cause one of these little ones that believe on me to stumble, it is profitable for him that a great millstone should be hanged about his neck, and [that] he should be sunk in the depth of the sea.

⁶Himahleh, hiai hongingta neu chikte laka khar leng hihpuk tuh, a ngawng uah buh gawijanna suang lianpi ok sakin tupi thuk lai ah khe mang le uh amau a dingin a phatuam zo ding.

⁷Woe unto the world because of occasions of stumbling! for it must needs be that the occasions come; but woe to that man through whom the occasion cometh!

⁷Puknate jiak in khovel tung a gik hi; puknate bel hongom ding him ahi a; himahleh pukna omsakpa tung a gik.

⁸And if thy hand or thy foot causeth thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: it is good for thee to enter into life maimed or halt, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into the eternal fire.

⁸Huan, na khutin hiam, na khein hiam, a honhihpuk leh, tan inla, pai mang in; khut nih hiam khe nih hiam neia khantawn meia paih a om sang in, piangsualin hiam khebaiin hiam hinna a lut nanga ding in a hoihjaw.

⁹And if thine eye causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is good for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire.

⁹Huan, mitin a honhihpuk leh khel khia inla, pai mang in; mit lang nih neia Gehenna meia paiha om sangin, mit lang khat neia hinna a lut nanga ding in a hoihjaw.

¹⁰See that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, that in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father who is in heaven.

¹⁰Hiai mineute lak a khat leng simmoh lou ding in pilvang un, a angelte un van ah ka Pa van a om mel a mu gige uh chih ka hon hilh ahi.

¹¹[For the Son of man came to save that which was lost.]

¹¹Mihing Tapa tuh mangthangte zong ding a hongpai ahi ngal a.

¹²How think ye? if any man have a hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and go unto the mountains, and seek that which goeth astray?

¹²Bangchi na sa ua? Mi kuapeuh in belam za nei henla, a lak ua khat vak mang taleh, sawmkua leh kuate tuh nusia in, tang a pai in, a mangpen a zongkei dia hia?

¹³And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth over it more than over the ninety and nine which have not gone astray.

¹³Chihtaktak in ka hon hilh ahi, a muh nawn zenzen in tuh, sawmkua leh kua vak mang loute tungah sang in, a tungah a kipak zo ding.

¹⁴Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.

¹⁴Huchibang mah in hiai mineute lak a khat manthat leng na Pa uh van a om deihlam a hikei hi.

¹⁵And if thy brother sin against thee, go, show him his fault between thee and him alone: if he hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

¹⁵Huan, na unau in na tungah thil ahihkhelh leh, pai inla, amah leh nang kia theih in a khelhna ah hilh in; a hon ngaih khiak leh na unau tuh na zou ahi ding.

¹⁶But if he hear [thee] not, take with thee one or two more, that at the mouth of two witnesses or three every word may be established.

¹⁶A hon ngaihkhiak kei leh mi dang khat hiam nih hiam na kiang ah na pi dia, huchi in thu chiteng theihpih mi nih hiam thum hiam kam a hihkip a a om theihna ding in.

¹⁷And if he refuse to hear them, tell it unto the church: and if he refuse to hear the church also, let him be unto thee as the Gentile and the publican.

¹⁷Huan amau leng a ngaihkhiak nopkei a leh, saptuamte kiang ah tun in; huan, saptuamte leng a ngaihkhiak nopkei leh, amah tuh nang ding in Jentel leh siahkhonmi bang hi heh.

¹⁸Verily I say unto you, what things soever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and what things soever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

¹⁸Chihtaktakin ka hon hilh ahi, leitung ah bangpeuh na hen uh tuh, van ah hen ahi ding. Huan leitung a na phel peuhmah uh, van ah leng phel ahi ding.

¹⁹Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father who is in heaven.

¹⁹Chihtaktak in ka hon hilh nawn ahi. Leitung ah na lak ua mi nih a thil ngetlam ua a kithutuah uleh, ka Pa van a om hihsak in a om ding uh.

²⁰For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

²⁰Mi nih hiam thum hiam ka min a a kikhopna peuh uah a lak uah ka omzel ngal a, a chi a.

²¹Then came Peter and said to him, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? until seven times?

²¹Huailai in Peter a hongpai a, a kiang ah, Toupa, ka unau in bangzahvei ahia ka tungah khial leh ka ngaihdam ding? sagihvei tan in ahi diam? A chi a.

²²Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times; but, Until seventy times seven.

²²Jesu'n a kiang ah, Sagihvei tan in ka hon chikei, Sagihvei mun sawmsagih tan in, ka honchi jaw ahi.

²³Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, who would make a reckoning with his servants.

²³Huaijiak in, vangam tuh kumpipa kua hiam a sikhate kiang a a sum thu hihchet tum toh tehpih ahi.

²⁴And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, that owed him ten thousand talents.

²⁴Huchia a hihchet pat tak in, mi khat talent singkhat ba a kiang ah a honpi uh.

²⁵But forasmuch as he had not [wherewith] to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

²⁵Huan piak ding a neihlouh jiak in, a pu in amah toh, a ji toh, a tate toh, a neih tengteng toh zuak a dit ding thu a pia a.

²⁶The servant therefore fell down and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

²⁶Huchi in, sikha in tuh, Toupa, ka tungah zahngai tadih inla, a vek in ka hon pe ding, chi in khupboh in chibai a buk a.

²⁷And the lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt.

²⁷Huan, huai sikhapa pun a hehpihta mahmah a, a khah a, a bat a ngaidamta.

²⁸But that servant went out, and found one of his fellow-servants, who owed him a hundred shillings: and he laid hold on him, and took [him] by the throat, saying, Pay what thou owest.

²⁸Himahleh, huai sikha tuh a paikhia a, a sikha hihpihte lak a khat a makhai za ba a vamu a; huan, amah a man a, Na bat hon pia in, chi in a gawl a mek a.

²⁹So his fellow-servant fell down and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee.

²⁹Huchi in a sikha hihpihpan tuh khupboh in, Ka tungah zahngai tadih inla, ka hon pe ding, chi in a ngen ngutngut a.

³⁰And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay that which was due.

³⁰Himahleh a utkei a; a bat a piak zoh masiah suangkulh ah a vakhumta a.

³¹So when his fellow-servants saw what was done, they were exceeding sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

³¹Huchi in, a sikha hihpihte'n a thil hih tuh a muh un, a lungkham mahmah ua. A thil hih tengteng a Toupa uh a vahilhta uh.

³²Then his lord called him unto him, and saith to him, Thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou besoughtest me:

³²Huaitak in a Toupa'n amah tuh a sam a, a kiang ah, Sikha gilou, non nget ngutngut jiak a, na hon bat tengteng hon ngaidam hi ing a;

³³shouldest not thou also have had mercy on thy fellow-servant, even as I had mercy on thee?

³³ka hon hehpih bang in nang leng na sikha hihpih na hehpih sam ding hilou hia? A chi a.

³⁴And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due.

³⁴Huan, a Toupa tuh a thangpaita a, a bat tengteng a piak zoh masiah migawtte kiang ah a peta a.Mi chin in na lungtang tak ua na unaute uh na ngaihdam kei uleh ka Pa van a om in leng huchi bangmah in na tunguah a hih sam ding, a chi a.

³⁵So shall also my heavenly Father do unto you, if ye forgive not every one his brother from your hearts.

³⁵Mi chin in na lungtang tak ua na unaute uh na ngaihdam kei uleh ka Pa van a om in leng huchi bangmah in na tunguah a hih sam ding, a chi a.
