¹Huan, Jerusalem khua a tun ding un, Bethphage khua, Oliv tang tuh, a tun un Jesu'n nungjuite nih a sawl a, a kiang uah,

¹When they drew near to Jerusalem, and came to Bethsphage, TR & NU read “Bethphage” instead of “Bethsphage” to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,

²Na ma jawn khua uah vahohta unla, sabengtung khih, a kiang a a nou toh, na mu ding ua; phel unla, ka kiang ah hon kai un.

²saying to them, “Go into the village that is opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them, and bring them to me.

³Huan, kuapeuh in na kiang ua banghiam a gen uleh, Toupa'n a deih a ahi, na chi ding uh; huan, aman tuh a hon sawl pah mai ding, a chi a.

³ If anyone says anything to you, you shall say, ‘The Lord needs them,’ and immediately he will send them.”

⁴Hiai tengteng tuh jawlnei kam a gen a hong tun theihna ding in a hong omta hi.

⁴All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying,

⁵En dih, na Kumpipa, thunuailut tak in, sabengtung tungah- sabengtung nou tung ngei a tuang in na kiang ah a hong dek, chi in, Zion tanu tuh hilh in, a chih.

⁵“Tell the daughter of Zion, behold, your King comes to you, humble, and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.” Zechariah 9:9

⁶Huchi in, nungjuite tuh a vapai ua, Jesu'n a kiang ua thu a piak bang ngei in a hih ua,

⁶The disciples went, and did just as Jesus commanded them,

⁷sabengtung leh a nou tuh a honkai ua, a tunguah a puante uh a phah ua, huai ah a tuangta a.

⁷and brought the donkey and the colt, and laid their clothes on them; and he sat on them.

⁸Huan, mipi lak a tamjaw in lampi ah a puante uh a phah ua, midang in sing sawl a sat ua, lampi ah a phah ua.

⁸A very great multitude spread their clothes on the road. Others cut branches from the trees, and spread them on the road.

⁹Huan, mipi a malam a paite leh a juite'n, David Tapa kiang ah Hosanna: Toupa min a hongpai tuh a hampha hi: tungnungpen ah Hosanna: chi in, a kikou ua.

⁹The multitudes who went before him, and who followed kept shouting, “Hosanna “Hosanna” means “save us” or “help us, we pray.” to the son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!” Psalm 118:26

¹⁰Huan, Jerusalem khua a honglut in, a khua in, Hiai mi kua ahia? Chi in, a ling souhsouh ua.

¹⁰When he had come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”

¹¹Huan, mipite'n, hiai mi jawlnei Jesu, Galili gam a Nazaret khua a ahi, a chi ua.

¹¹The multitudes said, “This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.”

¹²Huan, Jesu Pathian biak in ah a valut a, biakin a juakmite leh leimite tengteng a delhkhia a, dangka khengte dohkante leh vakhu juakte tutphahte leng a sawnpaih sak a;

¹²Jesus entered into the temple of God, and drove out all of those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the money changers’ tables and the seats of those who sold the doves.

¹³a kiang uah, Ka in thumna in a chi ding uh, chih gelh ahi; nou bel suamhatte khuk in na bawljaw uh, a chi a.

¹³He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ Isaiah 56:7 but you have made it a den of robbers!” Jeremiah 7:11

¹⁴Huan, Pathian biak in ah mittawte leh khebaite a kiang ah a hong ua; amau a na hihdam.

¹⁴The blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them.

¹⁵Himahleh, siampu lalte leh laigelhmite'n a thil lamdang hihte leh biakin a, David Tapa Hosanna: chi a naupang kikoute a muh un, a lungkimkei mahmah ua,

¹⁵But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children who were crying in the temple and saying, “Hosanna to the son of David!” they were indignant,

¹⁶a kiang ah, Hiaite thugen na ja hia? a chi ua. Huan, Jesu'n a kiang uah, Ja e; Naungekte leh nawi nelaite kam a pawt in pahtawina na hihkimta, chih na sim ngeikei ua hia? A chi a.

¹⁶and said to him, “Do you hear what these are saying?” Jesus said to them, “Yes. Did you never read, ‘Out of the mouth of babes and nursing babies you have perfected praise?’” Psalm 8:2

¹⁷Huan, amau tuh a paisan a, khopi apat a pawt a, Bethani ah a pai a; huai ah a giakta.

¹⁷He left them, and went out of the city to Bethany, and lodged there.

¹⁸Huan, jing a khopi lam a akik nawnlai in a gil a hong kialta a.

¹⁸Now in the morning, as he returned to the city, he was hungry.

¹⁹Huan, lamsik ah theipi kung a mu a, a va naih a, a nah kia loungal bangmah a mukei a. Huan, a kiang ah, Khantawn in na gah nawnta ken a chi a.

¹⁹Seeing a fig tree by the road, he came to it, and found nothing on it but leaves. He said to it, “Let there be no fruit from you forever!” Immediately the fig tree withered away.

²⁰Huan, theipi tuh a vul pah ngal a. Huan, nungjuite'n huai amuh un, Bangchidan ahia theipi a vulpah tel? chi in lamdang a sa mahmah ua.

²⁰When the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, “How did the fig tree immediately wither away?”

²¹Huan, Jesu'n a kiang uah, Chihtaktakin, ka hon hilh ahi, ginna na neih ua, na gin lah kei uleh, theipi tung a hih bang phet leng na hihkei ding ua, hiai tang kiang ah leng, Na kisuan inla, tuipi ah na kipai in, chi le uchin, na chih bang un, a hong om ding.

²¹Jesus answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, if you have faith, and don’t doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you told this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ it would be done.

²²Huan, bang peuh gingta a thum a na nget uh na mu ding uh, a chi a, a dawng a.

²² All things, whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”

²³Huan, Pathian biakin a lut nung a, thu a hilhlai in, siampu lalte leh vantang upate a kiang ah a hong ua, a kiang ah, Kua thu in ahia hiai thil na hih? Kuan thu a hon pai a? A chi ua.

²³When he had come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, and said, “By what authority do you do these things? Who gave you this authority?”

²⁴Huan, Jesu'n a kiang uah, Ken leng thu kam khat kon dong sam ding, huai tuh na hon hilh uleh, kua thu in ahia hiai thil ka hih, ka hon hilh sam ding.

²⁴Jesus answered them, “I also will ask you one question, which if you tell me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things.

²⁵Johan baptisma, hiai kaw kipan ahia? Van a kipan hia, a hihkeileh mihing a kipan? A chi a, a dong a. Huan, a kingaihtuah ua. Van a kipan, chi lehang, Bang dia amah ginglou na hi ua leh? A hon chi kha dia.

²⁵ The baptism of John, where was it from? From heaven or from men?” They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will ask us, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’

²⁶Huan, Mihing a kipan, chi lehang, mipi i kihta ngal a; mi tengteng in lah Johan jawlnei in a sim ngal ua, a chi ua.

²⁶But if we say, ‘From men,’ we fear the multitude, for all hold John as a prophet.”

²⁷Huchi in, Jesu a dawng ua, Theikei ung, a chi ua. Aman leng a kiang uah, Ken leng kua thu in ahia hiai thil ka hih ka hon hilh samkei ding, a chi a.

²⁷They answered Jesus, and said, “We don’t know.” He also said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.

²⁸Himahleh, nou bang chi na sa ua? Mi kuahiam in tapa nih a nei a, Khatpa kiang ah a vahoh a, Ta aw, tuni'n grep huan ah vasem ve, a chi a.

²⁸ But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first, and said, ‘Son, go work today in my vineyard.’

²⁹Aman, Ka utkei, a chi a, a dawng a; himahleh a denchiang in a lungsim a kheng a, a kuanta a.

²⁹ He answered, ‘I will not,’ but afterward he changed his mind, and went.

³⁰Huan, khatpa kiang ah leng a vahoh a, tua bangmah in a vachi a. Huan, aman, Pu, ka kuan ding, a chi a, a dawng a; himahleh a kuanta kei.

³⁰ He came to the second, and said the same thing. He answered, ‘I go, sir,’ but he didn’t go.

³¹Huai mi nihte a kua jaw in, a pa uh deihlam a hih aleh a chi a. Amau tuh, A masapen in, a chi ua. Jesu'n a kiang uah, Chihtaktakin ka hon hilh ahi, siahkhonte leh kijuakte'n Pathian gamah nou a hon lut khalh ding uh.

³¹ Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said to him, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Most certainly I tell you that the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering into the Kingdom of God before you.

³²Johan tuh diktatna lam tawn in na kiang uah a hong a, amah lah na gingta ngalkei ua: siahkhonmite leh kijuakte'n bel amah a gingta ua; noute'n huai na muh nung un leng amah na gintak theihna ding un na kisik nuam tuankei uh.

³² For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you didn’t believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. When you saw it, you didn’t even repent afterward, that you might believe him.

³³Gentehna thu dang ngaikhia un: Mi kuahiam, in nei a om a, huai min tuh grephuan a bawl a, gawl in a um suak a, grep sukna khuk a tou a, in sang a lam a; huan, lou kemte kiang ah khoh loh ding in a pia a, gam dang ah a paita a.

³³ “Hear another parable. There was a man who was a master of a household, who planted a vineyard, set a hedge about it, dug a winepress in it, built a tower, leased it out to farmers, and went into another country.

³⁴Huan, a gah loh a hun ding kuan in a gah la ding in lou kemte kiang ah a sikhate a sawl a.

³⁴ When the season for the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the farmers, to receive his fruit.

³⁵Huan, lou kemte'n tuh a sikhate a naman ua, khat a vua ua, khat a that ua, khat suang in a deng ua.

³⁵ The farmers took his servants, beat one, killed another, and stoned another.

³⁶Huan, sikha dang, a masa pawl sang a tamjaw a sawl nawn a; amau tungah leng a ma ua mite a hih bangmah un a na hih nawn ua.

³⁶ Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they treated them the same way.

³⁷Huai nung in tuh, Ka tapa a zahtak ding uh, chi in, a tapa tuh a kiang uah a sawl a.

³⁷ But afterward he sent to them his son, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’

³⁸Himahleh lou kemte'n a tapa a na muh tak un, Hiai mipa gouluahdingpa ahi; that ni e: a gou luah ding tansak ni, a kichi ua.

³⁸ But the farmers, when they saw the son, said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, and seize his inheritance.’

³⁹Huchi in, amah tuh a man ua, grephuan a kipan a pai khia ua, a thatta ua.

³⁹ So they took him, and threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him.

⁴⁰Huchi in grep huan neipa a hongpai chiang in huai lou kemte tungah bang chin a hon hih dia le? A chi a.

⁴⁰ When therefore the lord of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those farmers?”

⁴¹Amau tuh a kiang ah, Huai migiloute tuh haksa tak in a hihmangthang ding a, grep huan lah lou kemmi dang a loh hun teng a a gahte a kiang a pe jel dingte kiang ah, khoh loh ding in a pe ding, a chi ua.

⁴¹They told him, “He will miserably destroy those miserable men, and will lease out the vineyard to other farmers, who will give him the fruit in its season.”

⁴²Jesu'n a kiang uah, Laisiangthoute a, In lammite suang deihlouhpen, huai ngeingei a ning a suang phatuampen a hong hita. Huai tuh Toupa hih ahi, i mit muh in a lamdang ahi, chih, na sim ngeikei ua hia?

⁴²Jesus said to them, “Did you never read in the Scriptures, ‘The stone which the builders rejected, the same was made the head of the corner. This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes?’ Psalm 118:22-23

⁴³Huaijiak in, Pathian gam tuh na kiang ua kipan laksak ahi dia, a gah suah ding nam dang kiang ah piak ahi ding, chih, ka hon hilh ahi.

⁴³ “Therefore I tell you, the Kingdom of God will be taken away from you, and will be given to a nation bringing forth its fruit.

⁴⁴Huan, huai suang tung a puk tuh a kitam gawp dia; a delh khakte houh a gawijan ding, a chi a.

⁴⁴ He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but on whomever it will fall, it will scatter him as dust.”

⁴⁵Huan, siampu lalte leh Pharisaite'n a gentehna thute a jak un amau tung thu a gen chih a theita ua.Huan, amah tuh mat a tum ua; himahleh mipite a kihta ngal ua, jawlnei a a sim jiak un.

⁴⁵When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spoke about them.

⁴⁶Huan, amah tuh mat a tum ua; himahleh mipite a kihta ngal ua, jawlnei a a sim jiak un.

⁴⁶When they sought to seize him, they feared the multitudes, because they considered him to be a prophet.
