¹The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.

¹Huan, Pharisaite leh Saddukaite a hongpai ua, amah ze etna ding in van a kipan chiamtehna amaute ensak ding in a ngen ua.

²But he answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’

²Himahleh, aman a kiang uah, Nitaklam a hong hih in, Khua a pha dia a ding meisan a suak, na chi nak uh.

³ In the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but you can’t discern the signs of the times!

³Huan, jingsang in, Tunin khua se dia a ding e, meisan a suak a, a niam kai, na chi nak uh. Van omdan na thei siam ngal ua, himahleh, hun chiamtehnate na thei siam theikei uh.

⁴ An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and there will be no sign given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” He left them, and departed.

⁴Khangthak giloutak leh angkawm hatten chiamtehna a zong ua, himahleh, Jona chiamtehna lou ngal a kiang uah chiamtehna himhim piak a hikei ding, a chi a, a dawng a. Huan, amaute a paisan a, a pawt kheta.

⁵The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.

⁵Huan, nungjuite gal khatlam a a tun un tanghou a po mangngilh ua,

⁶Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

⁶Huan, Jesun a kiang uah, Pharisaite leh Saddukaite silngou lak ah kiveng unla, pilvang un, a chi a.

⁷They reasoned among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”

⁷Huan, amau, Tanghou i po hetkei, chi in a kingaihtuah ua.

⁸Jesus, perceiving it, said, “Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, ‘because you have brought no bread?’

⁸Huan, Jesun huai a thei a, Gin tawmte aw, bang achia tanghou na neihlouh ziak ua kingaihtuah na hi ua?

⁹ Don’t you yet perceive, neither remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up?

⁹Tu nangawn in na lungsim un na thei naikei lailai umaw? Mi sangnga tanghou phel nga leh, na bawmpi dimsak zah uh, na thei gige kei ua hia?

¹⁰ Nor the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?

¹⁰Mi sangli tanghou phel sagih leh, na bawmpi dimsak zah uleng?

¹¹ How is it that you don’t perceive that I didn’t speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

¹¹Tanghou thu na kiang ua genlou in. Pharisaite leh Saddukaite silngou lak ah, pilvang un, chih gen ka hi jaw chih bang achia theilou na hi ua? A chi a.

¹²Then they understood that he didn’t tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

¹²Huaitak in tanghou silngou lak a pilvang ding in a sawlkei a. Pharisaite leh Saddukaite thulhilhna lak a pilvang ding in amau a sawl jaw chih a hon theita uh.

¹³Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”

¹³Huan, Jesu Philippi Kaisari uk a hongtun in a nungjuite kiang ah, Min Mihing Tapa kua ahi a chi ua? chi in, a dong a.

¹⁴They said, “Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.”

¹⁴Huan, amau, Khenkhat in, Baptispa Johan ahi, a chi ua; khenkhat in, Elija ahi, a chi ua; khenkhat in, Jeremia hiam zawlnei kua hiam ahi, a chi uh, a chi ua.

¹⁵He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”

¹⁵Aman tuh a kiang uah, A hihleh, nou kua ahi non chi ua? a chi a.

¹⁶Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

¹⁶Huan, Simon Peter in, Kris Pathian Hing Tapa tuh na hi, a chi a, a dawng a.

¹⁷Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.

¹⁷Huan, Jesun a kiang ah, Simon Bar-Jona, hampha chia; sa leh sisan in a hon theihsak na hikei a, ka Pa van a om in hon theihsak na hi zo ngal a.

¹⁸ I also tell you that you are Peter, Peter’s name, Petros in Greek, is the word for a specific rock or stone. and on this rock Greek, petra, a rock mass or bedrock. I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades or, Hell will not prevail against it.

¹⁸Huan, ka hon hilh ahi, nang Peter na hi, hiai suangpi tungah ka saptuam ka lamtou ding a, misi kho kulh kongkhakten huai a zoukei ding.

¹⁹ I will give to you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven; and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.”

¹⁹Vangam tahbite ka hon pe ding a, leitung ah bangpeuh na hen vanah leng hen ahi ding a leitung ah bangpeuh na phel vanah leng phel ahi ding, a chi a.

²⁰Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.

²⁰Huai zoh in Kris ahi chih kuamah hilhlou ding in nungjuite tuh a chi bikbek a.

²¹From that time, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.

²¹Huai nungsiah tuh Jesun Jerusalem a a pai dingdan bang, upate, siampu lalte, laigelhmite lak a thil tampi a thuak dingdan bang, hihlup a a om dingdan bang, ni thum ni a kaihthoh a a om dingdan bang a nungjuite a theisak panta a.

²²Peter took him aside, and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.”

²²Huan, Peter in amah a pituamta a; Toupa, Hi hetkei hen! Huaite na tungah tung ngei hetkei hen! Chi in, a taihilh ta a.

²³But he turned, and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of men.”

²³Amah bel a kihei a, Peter kiang ah, Setan, ka nung ah pai in; kei a din pukna na hi; Pathian thilte ngaihtuahlou in mihing thilte na ngaihtuah jaw ahi, a chi a.

²⁴Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

²⁴Huan, Jesun a nungjuite kiang ah, Kuapeuh in a hon zuih nop leh, amah gimthuak khawk salou in, a kros pua in hon zui heh.

²⁵ For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.

²⁵Kuapeuh a hin humbit ut in a tan ding a; kuapeuh keimah jiak a a hinna tanin a humbit ding.

²⁶ For what will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?

²⁶Min khovel a pum in nei henla, a hinna tan jel leh, amah a ding in bang a phatuam dia? A hihkeileh, min a hin sikin bang a pe thei a?

²⁷ For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds.

²⁷Mihing Tapa a angelte toh, a Pa thupina a kizem a a hongpai ding ziak in: huai chiang in mi chih a nasep bang bang un a din chiat ding.Chihtaktakin ka hon chi ahi, hiai a dingte a khen tuh, Mihing Tapa a gam a hongpai a muh ma siah uh, sihna chiamlou hial ding a om uh, a chi a.

²⁸ Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death, until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom.”

²⁸Chihtaktakin ka hon chi ahi, hiai a dingte a khen tuh, Mihing Tapa a gam a hongpai a muh ma siah uh, sihna chiamlou hial ding a om uh, a chi a.
