¹Huai min Jesu tuh in a kipan a pai khia a, dil gei ah a tu a.

¹On that day Jesus went out of the house, and sat by the seaside.

²Huan, a kiangah mipi thupitak a hongkikhawm ua, huchiin longah a tuanga, a tua, mipi tengteng piautak ah a ding ua.

²Great multitudes gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat, and sat, and all the multitude stood on the beach.

³Huan, gentehnain thu tampi a kianguah a gena: Ngai dih ua, buhchithehpa buhchithehin a kuana.

³He spoke to them many things in parables, saying, “Behold, a farmer went out to sow.

⁴Huan, a theh laiin a khen lam sikah a kia a, vasaten a honne zouta a.

⁴ As he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.

⁵HUan, a khen suangsi lei lakah a kia a: lei a sah louh jiakin a hongpou paha:

⁵ Others fell on rocky ground, where they didn’t have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth.

⁶himahleh, a ni a hongsuahin hai vuaiin a hongon a: zung a neih louh jiakin, a vul mai maha.

⁶ When the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.

⁷Huan, a ken loulingnei lakah a kia a, lou tuh a hongpou sanga: a dep mangta a.

⁷ Others fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked them.

⁸Huan, a khen lei hoihah a kia a. Khenkhat a leh ja bang, khenkhat a leh sawmguk bang, khenkhat a leh sawm thum bangin a honggah a.

⁸ Others fell on good soil, and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.

⁹Kuapeuh bil neiin, ja heh, a chi a.

⁹ He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

¹⁰Huan, nungjuite a hongpai ua, a kiangah, Bangdia gentehna a thu gen na hia? a chi ua.

¹⁰The disciples came, and said to him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?”

¹¹Huan, aman a dawnga. a kiangah uah, vangam thuguk nou theih jaw phal ahi a, amau theih jaw phal ahikei.

¹¹He answered them, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, but it is not given to them.

¹²Kuapeuh a nei tuh piak behlap ahi ding a, a hau ding; himahleh, kuapeuh a neilou tuh, a neih sun leng laksak ahi ding.

¹² For whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have abundance, but whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he has.

¹³Huchi a hih jiakin a kiang uah gentehnain thu ka gen ahi; mu napiin a mu kei nak ua, za napiin a theih siam kei nak uh.

¹³ Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they don’t see, and hearing, they don’t hear, neither do they understand.

¹⁴Huan, Isai thu gen kholh a tunguah a hongtung ahi: Bilin jaw na ding ua, a theih jaw na theisiam kei hial ding uh; muh jaw na mu ding ua, theih jaw na theikei hial ding uh;

¹⁴ In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says, ‘By hearing you will hear, and will in no way understand; Seeing you will see, and will in no way perceive:

¹⁵Hiai chite lungtang a nanggawpta a bilte uh a ngong a, a mitsi ua, huchilou injaw a mit un a mukha ding ua, a bil un a za kha ding ua, a lungtang un a theisiam kha ding ua, a hongkik nawn kha ding ua, a mau ka nahihdam kha ding. a chi a, a chih

¹⁵ for this people’s heart has grown callous, their ears are dull of hearing, they have closed their eyes; or else perhaps they might perceive with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and should turn again; and I would heal them.’ Isaiah 6:9-10

¹⁶Nou mit jaw a hampha hi, a muh jiakin; na bil u leng a hampha hi, a jak jiakin.

¹⁶ “But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.

¹⁷Chihtaktakin ka honhilh ahi, jawlnei tampi leh mi diktak tampin leng na thil muhte uh muh a ut ua, himahleh a mu kei uh; na thil jakte uh leng jak a ut ua, himahleh a za kei uh.

¹⁷ For most certainly I tell you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them; and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.

¹⁸Huaijiakin, buhchithehpa gentehna thu tuh ja un;

¹⁸ “Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.

¹⁹Kuapeuhin gam thu tuh bila a najaka, a theihsiam kei leh, migilou a hongpai a, a lungtang a thehsa tuh a sut nak. Huai tuh lam sik a theh ahi.

¹⁹ When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom, and doesn’t understand it, the evil one comes, and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.

²⁰Huan, suangsi leilaka theh tuh, thu jaa kipak taka pom ngal bang ahi;

²⁰ What was sown on the rocky places, this is he who hears the word, and immediately with joy receives it;

²¹himahleh amah ah zung a om keia, sawtlou chik kisa a oma, huan, thu jiakin gimthuakna hiam, sawina hiam a hongom takin a puk pah ngal.

²¹ yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.

²²Huan, loulingnei laka theh tuh thu tuh jaa, himahleh, khovel awlmohna leh hauhsakna khemnain thu tuh a dep a, gah louin a hongom hi.

²² What was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.

²³Huan, lei hoih tunga theh tuh, thu tuh bil a ja a, theisiam ahi; huai tuh a gah ngeia, khenkhat a leh ja bang, khenkhat a leh sawmguk bang, khenkhat a leh sawmthum bangin a pung, a chi a.

²³ What was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word, and understands it, who most certainly bears fruit, and brings forth, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.”

²⁴Gentehna dang a kiang uah a gen nawna; vangam tuh, mi a lou a chi hoih thehpa toh teh ahi;

²⁴He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field,

²⁵Himahleh mi a ihmut kalin amelma a hongpaia, buh lakah buhlem a theha, a paimang nawnta.

²⁵ but while people slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel weeds darnel is a weed grass (probably bearded darnel or lolium temulentum) that looks very much like wheat until it is mature, when the difference becomes very apparent. also among the wheat, and went away.

²⁶Huan, buh tuh a hongpou a a hongvuihin buhlem leng a hongkilang sam a.

²⁶ But when the blade sprang up and brought forth fruit, then the darnel weeds appeared also.

²⁷Huan, inneipa sikhate a hongpai ua, a kiangah, Pu, na lou a chi hoih thehlou na hi maw? buhlemte kaw kipana hongom ahia? a chi ua.

²⁷ The servants of the householder came and said to him, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where did this darnel come from?’

²⁸Huan, aman tuh a kiang uah, Melmain nahih eive, a chi a, Huan, a sikhaten a kiangah. A hihleh, huaite va la khawm le ung hoih na sa hia? a chi ua.

²⁸ “He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ “The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and gather them up?’

²⁹Aman bel, Sa lou e, buhlem na lak khawm nalam uah buh na bot khawm kha ding uh.

²⁹ “But he said, ‘No, lest perhaps while you gather up the darnel weeds, you root up the wheat with them.

³⁰Buh lak dongin pou khawm uheh; huan, buhlak hun chiangin buh atte kiangah, Buhlem la khawm masa phot unla hal dingin lom gak un; buh pen bel ka buhin ah sek lut un, ka china ding, a chi a, a chi a.

³⁰ Let both grow together until the harvest, and in the harvest time I will tell the reapers, “First, gather up the darnel weeds, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn.”’”

³¹Gentehna dang a kianguah a gen nawna; vangam tuh ankam chi tang khat min a laka a loua a theh bang ahi.

³¹He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field;

³²Huai tuh chi laklak ah a neupen a; himahleh a hongpou san chiangin loupa lakah a lianpen a, sing a honghi a, huchiin tungleng vasate a hongpai ua, ahiang khawngah a giak uh, a chi a.

³² which indeed is smaller than all seeds. But when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches.”

³³Gentehna dang a kianguah a gen nawn a; vangam tuh, silngou numeiin a lak a, anbuang tehna thum laka a vek a thoh matenga a phum bang ahi, a chi a.

³³He spoke another parable to them. “The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast, which a woman took, and hid in three measures literally, three sata. 3 sata is about 39 litres or a bit more than a bushel of meal, until it was all leavened.”

³⁴Huai tengteng tuh Jesun gentehnain mipite kiangah a gena, gentehna louin a kianguah bangmah a gen kei;

³⁴Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the multitudes; and without a parable, he didn’t speak to them,

³⁵Jawlnei in, Gentehnain ka kam ka ka dinga, leilung pian tunga kipat thil kisel tuh ka gen kheding, chia a gen a hongtun theihna ding in.

³⁵that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world.” Psalm 78:2

³⁶Huai laiin mipute a paisana, in ah a lutta a, huan, nungjuite a kiangah a hongpai ua, Loua buhlem gentehna thu honhilh chian in, a chi ua.

³⁶Then Jesus sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the darnel weeds of the field.”

³⁷Huan, aman a dawnga, Chi hoih thehpa tuh Mihing Tapa ahi a; lou tuh khovel ahi.

³⁷He answered them, “He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,

³⁸Chi hoihte tuh gam tate ahi ua; buhlemte tuh migilou tate ahi uh.

³⁸ the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the children of the Kingdom; and the darnel weeds are the children of the evil one.

³⁹melma, a thehpa tuh, diabol ahi a, buh lak hun tuh khovel tawpna ding ahi; a tatte tuh angelte ahi uh.

³⁹ The enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.

⁴⁰Huchiin, buhlemte tuh a la khawm ua meia a hal bang un khovel tawpna ah a om ding.

⁴⁰ As therefore the darnel weeds are gathered up and burned with fire; so will it be at the end of this age.

⁴¹Mihing, Tapain angelte a sawl khe ding a, a gam akipan hihkhialsakte leh thil hihkhialte tengteng a khawm khe ding ua, hal tuina mei ah a pai ding uh.

⁴¹ The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his Kingdom all things that cause stumbling, and those who do iniquity,

⁴²Huailai ah kah leh hagawi a om ding.

⁴² and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and the gnashing of teeth.

⁴³Huai hun chiangin mi diktatte tuh a Pa uh gamah ni bangin a vakta ding uh. Bil neiin ja heh.

⁴³ Then the righteous will shine forth like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

⁴⁴vangam tuh loua gou phum guk bang ahi; huai tuh min a mu a, asel a, a kipah jiakin a neih tengteng a juaka, huai lou tuh a leita.

⁴⁴ “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found, and hid. In his joy, he goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.

⁴⁵Huan vangam tuh sumsin mi tuikepsuang hoih tak zongmi bang ahi nawna;

⁴⁵ “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,

⁴⁶Huan, aman tuh tuikepsuang manpha tak khat a mu a, a neih tengteng a juaka, a leita a.

⁴⁶ who having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

⁴⁷Huan, vangam tuh lenpi, tuipi a paiha chi chih tun khawmna bang ahi nawna.

⁴⁷ “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a dragnet, that was cast into the sea, and gathered some fish of every kind,

⁴⁸Huai tuh a dim takin a gei ah a kai khia ua, huan, a tu ua, a hoih teng bawm ah a lakhawm ua, a hoihlou a pai uh.

⁴⁸ which, when it was filled, they drew up on the beach. They sat down, and gathered the good into containers, but the bad they threw away.

⁴⁹Khovel tawp hun chiangin huchi bangmahin a om ding, angelte a hongpawt ding ua, mi diktat lakah, migiloute a khenkhe ding ua;

⁴⁹ So will it be in the end of the world. The angels will come forth, and separate the wicked from among the righteous,

⁵⁰hal tuina mei ah a pai ding uh, huai ah tuh kah leh hagawi a om ding, achia.

⁵⁰ and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.”

⁵¹Jesu mahin a king uah, Huai tengteng na theisiam uhia? a chi a, Amau tuh a kiangah, Thei e, a chi ua.

⁵¹Jesus said to them, “Have you understood all these things?” They answered him, “Yes, Lord.”

⁵²Huan, aman tuh a kiang uah. Huchi a hih leh, laigelhmi vangam nuaijui hi peuhmah tuh, in neipa, a gou bawm a kipana thil thakte leh thilluite pholh khepa bang ahi, a chi a.

⁵²He said to them, “Therefore every scribe who has been made a disciple in the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a householder, who brings out of his treasure new and old things.”

⁵³Huan, hichi ahia, Jesun huai gentehnate a gen khit takin huai a kipanin a paita a.

⁵³It happened that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from there.

⁵⁴Huan, a omna kho lam tuh a tunga, a kikhopna in uah amaute thu a hilh a, huchiin lamdang a sa mahmah ua, Hiai min hiai pilna leh hiai nasep thupi hihtheihnate khawng koi apata a muh ahia?

⁵⁴Coming into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, “Where did this man get this wisdom, and these mighty works?

⁵⁵Hiai mi singlemsiampa tapa hi lou hia? a nu Mari kichi hilou hia? a unaute Jakob, Joseph, Simon, Juda kichite hilou u hia?

⁵⁵Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t his mother called Mary, and his brothers, James, Joses, Simon, and Judas or, Judah ?

⁵⁶Hiai min koia kipan phiangsana hiai tengteng mu ahia? a sanggamnute leng i kiangua om vek uh hilou uhia? a chi ua.

⁵⁶Aren’t all of his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all of these things?”

⁵⁷Huchiin, a tungah a lung hita kei ua. Himahleh, Jesun a kiang uah, Jawlnei jaw amah kholam leh amah in lamah loungal pahtawi louhin a om ngei kei, a chi a.Huan, a gin louh jiak un huaiah tuh nasep thupi dang tam a hih kei.

⁵⁷They were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and in his own house.”

⁵⁸Huan, a gin louh jiak un huaiah tuh nasep thupi dang tam a hih kei.

⁵⁸He didn’t do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
