³⁶ Be like men watching for their lord, when he returns from the marriage feast; that, when he comes and knocks, they may immediately open to him.

³⁷A pu uh a hongpai chiangin sikha na ngak nilouha a muhte a hampha uhi; chihtaktakin ka honhilh ahi, Aman a kawng a gak dia, amau tuh an um dingin a tu sakdinga, ana uh a sep sakding.

³⁷ Blessed are those servants, whom the lord will find watching when he comes. Most certainly I tell you, that he will dress himself, and make them recline, and will come and serve them.

³⁸Jan laiin hiam, thoh hunin hiam a honga, huchi banga a honmuh, huai sikhate tuh a hampha uh.

³⁸ They will be blessed if he comes in the second or third watch, and finds them so.

³⁹ But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched, and not allowed his house to be broken into.

⁴¹Peter said to him, “Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everybody?”

⁴²Huan, Toupan, sumkempa ginom, piltak, a puin a hun teng a a tan ding uh hawm sak dinga a inkuanpihte tunga heutua a bawl ding tuh kuapen ahi dia le?

⁴²The Lord said, “Who then is the faithful and wise steward, whom his lord will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the right times?

⁴³A pu a hongpai chiangin sikha huchibanga hih a hon muhdingpa tuh a hampha.

⁴³ Blessed is that servant whom his lord will find doing so when he comes.

⁴⁴Diktakin ka honhilh ahi, a neih tengteng tunga heutu dingin a bawl ding.

⁴⁴ Truly I tell you, that he will set him over all that he has.

⁴⁵Ahihhangin huai sikhain, a lungtangin, Ka pu a hong zok kei ding e, chiin, a sikhanu, a sikhapa, na vo ta leh, nein dawnin na nakham leh.

⁴⁵ But if that servant says in his heart, ‘My lord delays his coming,’ and begins to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken,

⁴⁶huai sikha pu tuh, a gin louh niin, a theih louh laiin, a hong dinga, tum nih a honsuah dinga, mi ginom loute tan bang a tangsak ding hi.

⁴⁶ then the lord of that servant will come in a day when he isn’t expecting him, and in an hour that he doesn’t know, and will cut him in two, and place his portion with the unfaithful.

⁴⁷Sikha a pu deihlam theigige na pia na nakiging tuan lou-a, a pu deihlama leng gamta loupan nakpitaka vuak a tuak ding.

⁴⁷ That servant, who knew his lord’s will, and didn’t prepare, nor do what he wanted, will be beaten with many stripes,

⁴⁸A hihhangin, theiloupi-a vuakna thama gamtapan awlchika vuak a tuak ding. Tampi piaka ommi peuhmah kiangah tampi phutin om ding; tampi a kepsakpa uh kiangah a tamsem a phut ding uh.

⁴⁸ but he who didn’t know, and did things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few stripes. To whomever much is given, of him will much be required; and to whom much was entrusted, of him more will be asked.

⁴⁹Khovela mei khe suk dinga hongpai ka hi; tu inleng kang pah leh china tel ing e!

⁴⁹ “I came to throw fire on the earth. I wish it were already kindled.

⁵⁰Himahleh, baptisma tan ding ka nei, huai hihtangtun mateng tuh ka om nuam lou hina mahmah tel e:

⁵⁰ But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!

⁵¹Khovela lem leng sak dinga hongpai hiam honsa nahi umaw? Hi dek lou, ka honhilh ahi, kidou leng sak dinga hongpai ka hi jaw.

⁵¹ Do you think that I have come to give peace in the earth? I tell you, no, but rather division.

⁵³ They will be divided, father against son, and son against father; mother against daughter, and daughter against her mother; mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.” Micah 7:6

⁵⁴ He said to the multitudes also, “When you see a cloud rising from the west, immediately you say, ‘A shower is coming,’ and so it happens.

⁵⁵Huan, sim huih nung na muh chiang un, Khua lum ding ei ve, na chi uh, huan, a honglum ngei jela.

⁵⁵ When a south wind blows, you say, ‘There will be a scorching heat,’ and it happens.

⁵⁶Nou lepchiah te aw, khovel leh van omdan leng na genchian thei ngal ua, bangchia tulai hun gen chian siam lou na hi ua?

⁵⁶ You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky, but how is it that you don’t interpret this time?

⁵⁷Bang achia noumauin thu adik kikhen lou na hi ua?

⁵⁷ Why don’t you judge for yourselves what is right?

Miman heutupan suangkulh ah honkhum kha ding.Ka honhilh ahi, paihsasan khat nangawn na piak kim masiah, huai akipan na pawt kei hilhial ding, a chi a.

⁵⁸ For when you are going with your adversary before the magistrate, try diligently on the way to be released from him, lest perhaps he drag you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison.

⁵⁹Ka honhilh ahi, paihsasan khat nangawn na piak kim masiah, huai akipan na pawt kei hilhial ding, a chi a.

⁵⁹ I tell you, you will by no means get out of there, until you have paid the very last penny. literally, lepton. A lepton is a very small brass Jewish coin worth half a Roman quadrans each, which is worth a quarter of the copper assarion. Lepta are worth less than 1% of an agricultural worker’s daily wages. ”
