Milian Pa Ih Aatnak (Luke 12:16-21)


Milian pa ih atnak ihsin kan zir theimi thu pathum sim ka duh.

1. A hlawh tlinnak kha a mah ih thilti theinak ah a ruat aw. “Ka nei” (v. 16, 17).

Bible ih in zirh daan ah, kan lianh theinak ding ah thilti theinak in petu cu Pathian a si tiah a sim.

Deut. 8:17 Do not say to yourself, “My power and the might of my own hand have gotten me this wealth.”
Deut. 8:18 But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth, so that he may confirm his covenant that he swore to your ancestors, as he is doing today.

Kan zir theimi cu kan hlawhtlinnak hi Pathian ih thilti theinak ii pekmi ruangah a si tilo in, kan mai thilti theinak ruangah tiah kan ruat awk asile, cucu Pathian hmaiah mi aa kan sinak cu a si.

2. A lennak cu amai nomnak hrang lawngah hman a tum. For hi self-interest (v. 19).

Phil. 2:3 Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility regard others as better than yourselves.
Phil. 2:4 Let each of you look not to your own interests, but to the interests of others.
Phil. 2:5 Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus.

Pathian in thluasuah in pekmi kha kan mai hrang le duhmi (self-interest) tuahnak lawngah kan hmang le mi-aa kan si. Kan mai duhmi (self-interest) hnak in Pathian ih duhmi (God’s interest) kha hawl ding ah Pathian in duh sak a si.


3. A nunnak kha a thi thei lo ding vek ah a ruat aw. Nunnak cu a langte sung lawng Pathian in in zuahmi kan si (v. 19).

Minung nunnak cu Pathian in a duhmi tuahnak ding hrangah kan nunnak thaw a zuah ih damnak le cahnak in pek. Asinan, cumi cu a laangte sung lawng a si ding. A rei lo ding. Na nunnak Bawipa in tui zaan ah lo la sehla, Pathian ih duhmi na tuah ta man zo maw?

Nunnak hi thi thei lo ding vek ih kan ruah awk tik ah, mi aa kan si. Thaisun ka thi ding timi ruahnak thawn niti’n kan nunnak hmang tha uh si. David Siangpahrang khal in, Bawipa ka nunnak a tawi daan hi ii sim fiang aw la ka fim ding tiah a ti.

Psa. 90:12 So teach us to count our days
that we may gain a wise heart.

4. Milian pa ih atnak palinak cu ka lian zet tiah a ruat aw. Asinan, Pathian hmai ahcun, mi farah zet a si. Lennak ngaingai hi ziang a si ti a thei lo.

Luke hmang in Jesuh in zirh duhmi cu Lennak taktak timi cu ziang a si ti a si. Mai hrang lawng ruat ih nungtu pawl cu milai mithmuh ah an lian men thei nan, Pathian mithmuh ah mi farah an si (v. 21).

Luke 12:21 This is how it will be with any one who stores up things for himself but is not rich toward God.

Lennak taktak timi cu kan mai bom a tultu pawl hrangah Pathian ih thlarau thawn cu nu/ cu pa bomnak kan pekmi khi Pathian hmaika ih milian kan sinak a si. Ziang ah tile, Jesuh bang in midang kan va duhdawt tikah, Jesuh ih dung thluntu taktak kan si ih, Jesuh ih hnatuan a pehtu khal kan si. Cucu, lennak taktak sawn a si.

Curuangah, lennak taktak hi ziangzat Jesuh bang in midang ka bawm timi ah siar sawn lo in, ziangzat ka nei timi ah kan ruah awk asile, mi aa kan si.
