Kalatih 2
1 Acunüng, kum xaleikphyü angvei käna Tihtuh pi cehpüi lü, Banabah am Jerusalem khawa kani hang cit beki.
Then after the space of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus with me.
2 Pamhnam naw ka ceh vaia mdanak na mhmuh se ka citkia kyaki. Khyangmjükce he veia ka sang khawia thangkdaw cun angvai he veia pi ngbämnaka ka jah mtheh khaiki. Ajana kcün üng ka bilawh pänga pi kyase atuh ka bilawha pi kyase amdanga akya vai am ka ngaiki.
And I went up by revelation; and I put before them the good news which I was preaching among the Gentiles, but privately before those who were of good name, so that the work which I was or had been doing might not be without effect.
3 Ka hlawnga awmki, Tihtuh cun Krik khyanga kyase pi amthuia a vun am mawihsak u.
But not even Titus who was with me, being a Greek, was made to undergo circumcision:
4 Avang naw ta a vun mawih vai ami täng. Khritaw Jesuh üng kami taka lätnaka mawng hmu khai hea jumeiki hlawk hlawka ahina khyang he kami ksunga anghmüa lutki he. Tamna ami jah pawh hlü.
And that because of the false brothers let in secretly, who came searching out our free condition which we have in Christ Jesus, so that they might make servants of us;
5 Cunsepi thangkdaw, ngthungtak cun sungkham akyanak vaia phäha asängca hman pi ami ngthua keha am awm u nawng.
To whom we gave way not even for an hour; so that the true words of the good news might still be with you.
6 Mkhawnga kya kyaw u sepi keia phäha ta ami hngalangnak am ve. Pamhnam naw akpung da teng lü ä mtaiki. Khyang ngvai hea veia ka pyen hlü ta, “Akthai mcäinak keia phäha am hlü.”
But from those who seemed to be important (whatever they were has no weight with me: God does not take man's person into account): those who seemed to be important gave nothing new to me;
7 Mhnam naw Pita Judah he veia thangkdaw sang khaia khutbi a peta kba, kei pi ani naw khyangmjükce he veia thangkdaw sangnak khut a na petia hmuki he.
But, quite the opposite, when they saw that I had been made responsible for preaching the good news to those without circumcision, even as Peter had been for those of the circumcision
8 Judah he phäha Pita ngsäa mcawna kba, kei pi Pamhnama johit am khyangmjükce he phäha ngsäa mcawna ka kyaki.
(Because he who was working in Peter as the Apostle of the circumcision was working no less in me among the Gentiles);
9 Mkhawnga ami jah ngaih Jakuk, Pita la Johan naw, Pamhnam naw ahina khutbi kei üng pi na peki ti ngsingsaki he. Acunakyase kami van kami khüi hmaihki ti msingnak vaia Banabah la kei jah hnuksetki he. Banabah la kei khyangmjükce he ksunga khutbi pawh ning se amimi cun Judah he ksunga khutbi pawh khai hea kami mkhyäpki.
When they saw the grace which was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who had the name of being pillars, gave to me and Barnabas their right hands as friends so that we might go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcision;
10 Ami ksunga khuikha m'yenkseki he jah süm nglät vaia avan naw ami jah mcäi, acuna khutbi cun ka pawh vaia kamät naw pi akcüka ka bü kunga kyaki.
Only it was their desire that we would give thought to the poor; which very thing I had much in mind to do.
11 Acunüng, Pita Antioka law se khyang he maa ka ksenak. Hma kungkia kyase ni.
But when Cephas came to Antioch, I made a protest against him to his face, because he was clearly in the wrong.
12 Jakuka jah tüih lawa khyang hea am ami pha law ham üng Pita cun jumeiki khyangmjükce am atänga ei hmaihki. Acunsepi khyang hea pha law käna, vun mawih vai ktungnaki he jah kyüh lü khyangmjükce he hlawnga am ei lü pyaiki.
For before certain men came from James, he did take food with the Gentiles: but when they came, he went back and made himself separate, fearing those who were of the circumcision.
13 Jumeikia Judah khyang he pi Pita am atänga yailei hnga u lü awmki he naw Banabah pi yaileina u se ami hlawnga ngkhawki.
And the rest of the Jews went after him, so that even Barnabas was overcome by their false ways.
14 Thangkdaw üng am ami cehcawn ka jah ksing law üng Pitaa veia, “Nang Judah khyanga na kyaki cunsepi Judah khyanga mäiha am xüngsei lü khyangmjükce hea mäiha na xüngseiki. Acunüng ihawkba khyangmjükce he Judah khyang hea kba xüngsei khai hea amthuia na jah ngtünsaki ni?” ti lü avana ma ka pyen.
But when I saw that they were not living uprightly in agreement with the true words of the good news, I said to Cephas before them all, If you, being a Jew, are living like the Gentiles, and not like the Jews, how will you make the Gentiles do the same as the Jews?
15 Khyang he naw “Khyangka khyangmjükcea” ami jah suia kba am kya u lü, akcanga Judah khyanga kami hmi lawki.
We being Jews by birth, and not sinners of the Gentiles,
16 Cunsepi khyang cun Thuma pyen a pawhnak am ngdüngdaikia am kya lü, Jesuh Khritaw a jumeinak däng am ni ngdüngdaikia akya ve. Keimi pi Khritaw kami jumnak am Pamhnam üng kami ngsungpyun khaia Khritaw Jesuh kami jumeiki. Thum kami läka phäha am kya. U pi Thuma ti pawh lü am mi ngsungpyun thei.
Being conscious that a man does not get righteousness by the works of the law, but through faith in Jesus Christ, we had faith in Christ Jesus, so that we might get righteousness by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the law: because by the works of the law will no flesh get righteousness.
17 Acunüng Khritaw üng Pamhnama veia ngsungpyun vai kami kthanaka phäha Khyangmjükce he mäiha khyangka kami kya hngaki aw? Khritaw cun mkhyekat jah pawh sakia kyaki aw? Am kya.
But if, while we were desiring to get righteousness through Christ, we ourselves were seen to be sinners, is Christ a servant of sin? In no way!
18 Ka kpyeh pänga Thuma ninge läk vaia ka tünei be üngta, kamät cun khyang hea veia Thum kpyehkia ka ngdan saki ni.
For if I put up again those things which I gave to destruction, I am seen to be a wrongdoer.
19 Thuma awma küt üng kei cun ka thiki. Isetiakyaküng Thum naw a na hnima kyaki. Acun cun Pamhnama phäha ka xünseinak vaia phäha kyaki ni. Kei cun Khritaw am atänga ania kutlamktunga khana ka thiki.
For I, through the law, have become dead to the law, so that I might be living to God.
20 Acunakyase kamät am xüng ti veng. Khritaw kei üng xüngki. Atuh ka xünak cun na mhläkphya na lü amäta xünak na pekia Pamhnama Capa ka jumnak am ni ka xün ve.
I have been put to death on the cross with Christ; still I am living; no longer I, but Christ is living in me; and that life which I now am living in the flesh I am living by faith, the faith of the Son of God, who in love for me, gave himself up for me.
21 Pamhnama bäkhäknak am ma veng. Thuma phäha ngdüngdainak yah theia akya üng Khritaw amdanga thikia kya khai.
I do not make the grace of God of no effect: because if righteousness is through the law, then Christ was put to death for nothing.
