Romah 3
1 Judahe cun khyangmjükcee kthaka ami kyäpnak bawk veki aw? Vun mawih khameinak cun kü bawki aw?
WHAT advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?
2 Akcanga anaküt üng akcüka Pamhnam naw amäta ngthu cun Judahe üng jah peki.
Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
3 Judah avangea am ami sitihnak naw Pamhnam cun am sitihkia thawnsak thei khai aw?
For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
4 Acun kba am ni; Khyang naküt hlei sepi Pamhnam cun cangki ni, “Na ngthu pyen cun cang lü, ngthumkhyah üng pi ngnängnak na yah khai” tia Cangcim naw pyenki.
God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
5 Cunsepi am dawkia mi pawhmsahnak naw Pamhnama pawhmsah naküt dawki tia a mdan üng, i mi ti thei khai ni? Pamhnam naw a jah ksücet üng Pamhnam naw akhye pawhki mi ti thei khai aw? (Ahin cun kthäh vaia nglawi kungki ni).
But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)
6 Acukba am ani üng, Pamhnam am a cang üng ani naw ihawkba khawmdek ngthumkhyah pe khai ni?
God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?
7 Cunsepi, am ka cangnak naw Pamhnama hlüngtainak cun akcanga mdanki ni. Ise kei khyangka mäiha mkateia ka kya khai ni?
For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?
8 “Akdaw a pha law vaia, mkhyekatnak mi pawh vai u” tia ise am mi ti ni? Khyang avang naw ami na mkateinak vaia ahine jah pyenkie ni. Ami yah vai kunga mkateinak yah khaie.
And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say, ) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.
9 Acunüng, mimi Judahe cun Khyangmjükce kthaka mi dawnak veki aw? Am ve. Judahe ja khyangmjükce avan cun mkhyekatnaka akea mi veki ti cun ka ning jah mhnuh päng ni.
What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;
10 Cangcim naw a pyena kba “Upi am ngsungpyun,
As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
11 ksingnak taki ja Pamhnam mküimtoki matca pi am ve,
There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
12 “Ami van naw Pamhnam nghlatakie, akcea ami van citkie; akdaw pawhki upi am ve, mat pi am ve.
They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
13 “Ami khyü nglung he cun thihnak vaia kya lü; ami mleie am hleihlaknak ngthu pyenkie. Ami mkae üng kpyukpyaia sik am beki.”
Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:
14 “Ami pyenksake cun ng'yüncenak am beki.”
Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
15 “Ami khawe cun khyang hnimnak da hlah u lü;
Their feet are swift to shed blood:
16 ami cehnak naküt üng pyüpyehnak ja khuikhanake jah ta hütkie;
Destruction and misery are in their ways:
17 dim’yenaka lam pi am ksing u,
And the way of peace have they not known:
18 “Pamhnam pi am kyühei u.”
There is no fear of God before their eyes.
19 Thum üng ve nakütki hin thuma keha vekiea phäha sängeikia tia mi ksingki; acunakyase, khawmdek khyange nghuingphanak käh jah mhlät lü lei naküt law püi lü Pamhnam naw avana lei cun ngthu jah mkhyah pet khaia kyaki.
Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
20 Acukba, thum cun mi mkhyekatnak ksingeinak vaia ve lawkia kyase, thum üng u süm pi Pamhnama hmaia am ngsungpyun hlawt khai.
Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
21 Tuhkbäih cun, Pamhnam naw amät am a jah ngsungpyunsak cun mdan pängki ni. Mosia Thum ja sahmae naw ami saksinak kyaw u lü pi Thuma bilawh vai am ve.
But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Acun cun, Pamhnama ngsungpyunnak, Jesuh Khritaw jumnaka phäha kya lü, jumeikie avana phäha kyaki. Acunakyase, hngalangnak am ve:
Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23 khyang naküt mkhyekat lü Pamhnama hlüngtainak üngka naw thuk vaikie.
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 Jah lätlangsaki Khritaw Jesuh üngkhyüh, aphu am pe xa lü Pamhnama bäkhäknak am avan naw ngsungpyunnak yaha kyaki.
Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Pamhnam naw ani cun a jah pet. Ani mi jumeinak üng a thisena phäha ami mkhyekatnak mhlätnak vaia kyaki. Ahlana ami mkhyekatnake cun mlungsaünak am jah büktengki cunsepi atuh cun amäta ngsungpyunnak a mdannak vaia khyangea mkhyekatnak jah cijang petki. Ahikba a pawhnak am Pamhnam naw amät ngsungpyunnak mdan lü, Jesuh Khritaw jumki naküt cun pi ngsungpyunsaki ni.
Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
27 Acukba akya üng, mi awhcahnak vai ve khai aw? Am ve! Thum mi läk lü aw? Am ni. Jumnak üng ni akyak ve.
Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28 Acunakyase, khyang cun jumnak am ngsungpyun lü thuma ngjak'hlü bilawhnaka phäha am ni.
Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
29 Am ani üng Pamhnam cun Judahe däka Pamhnama kyaki aw? Khyangmjükceea Pamhnama pi am kyaki aw? Kyaki, khyangmjükceea Pamhnama pi kyaki.
Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
30 Pamhnam mat däk kya lü, Judahe cun ami jumnaka phäha amät am jah ngsungpyunsak lü Khyangmjükcee cun ami jumnak üngkhyüh jah ngsungpyunsaki.
Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
31 Acunakyaküng, jumeinaka phäha Thum mi hawihki aw? Am mi hawih, mi khängsaki ni.
Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
