Romah 5
1 Atuha, jumnaka phäh Pamhnam am ngsungpyunnak mi yahki, Bawi Jesuh Khritaw üngkhyüh Pamhnam am dim’yenak mi taki.
Therefore, having been pronounced righteous as the result of faith, let us enjoy peace with God through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
2 Atuha mi xünnaka jumnak üng Pamhnama bäkhäknak mi ksing khaia jah law püiki. Pamhnama hlüngtainak yümei lü äpeinak am mi awhcahki.
It is through him that, by reason of our faith, we have obtained admission to that place in God’s favour in which we now stand. So let us exult in our hope of attaining God’s glorious ideal.
3 Acunüng, acun däka am kyase, mi khuikhanak üng je u lü mi ve vai u, khuikhanak naw khameinak khawh lawpüiki,
And not only that, but let us also exult in our troubles;
4 khameinak khawh naw Pamhnama ksingnak lawpüi lü Pamhnama ksingnak naw äpeinak ve lawsaki;
for we know that trouble develops endurance, and endurance strength of character, and strength of character hope,
5 acunüng, mi veia a jah peta Ngmüimkhya Ngcim naw, Pamhnama mhläkphyanak cun, mi mlungkyawng k'uma a büih law pänga phäha, äpeinak naw am jah helatsak khai.
and that hope never disappoints. For the love of God has filled our hearts through the Holy Spirit which was given us;
6 Jah kpüi khai am a ve üng pi Pamhnama xüa kcün üng Khritaw cun mkhyeki khyange phäha thi lawki.
seeing that, while we were still powerless, Christ, in God’s good time, died on behalf of the godless.
7 Khyang ngsungpyunkia phäha thih vai khak khai, khyang kdawa phäha ta a thih vai lingki ve taw khai.
Even for an upright person scarcely anyone will die. For a really good person perhaps someone might even dare to die.
8 Mkhyekatnak am mi ve k'um üng, Khritaw mi phäha a thihnak am, Pamhnam naw ihlawka a jah mhläkphyanak cun mdanki.
But God puts his love for us beyond all doubt by the fact that Christ died on our behalf while we were still sinners.
9 Acunakyase, tuhkbäih cun, a thisena phäha ngsungpyunnak mi yah lü, acuna Bawipaa phäha, Pamhnama mlungsonak üngka naw ihlawka küikyannak mi yah khai ni.
Much more, then, now that we have been pronounced righteous by virtue of the shedding of his blood, will we be saved through him from the wrath of God.
10 Pamhnama yea mi kya k'um üng pi, a Cakpaa a thihnaka phäh Pamhnama püia mi kya law beki. Tuhbäih ta Pamhnama püia mi kyakia kyase Khritawa xünnak am ihlawka küikyannak mi yah khai.
For if, when we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, much more, now that we have become reconciled, will we be saved by virtue of Christ’s life.
11 Acun däka am kyase, tuhkbäih mi Bawipa Jesuh khritaw üng Pamhnam püiea jah pyangkia kyase mi jekyaiki.
And not only that, but we exult in God, through Jesus Christ, our Lord, through whom we have now obtained this reconciliation.
12 Acunüng, khyang mata phäha khawmdeka khana mkhyekatnak pha law lü, mkhyekatnaka phäh thihnak a pha lawa mäiha, khyang naküt cun mkhyekatnaka phäha thihnaka phakie, isetiakyaküng khyang avan ami mkhyekata phäh ni.
Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and through sin came death; so, also, death spread to all humanity, because every person has sinned.
13 Thum am a ve ham üng khawmdek khana mkhyekatnak ve pängki. Cunsepi Thum am a ve üng mkhyekatnake am ve u.
Even before the time of the Law there was sin in the world; but sin cannot be charged against someone where no Law exists.
14 Cunsepi, Adam üng tün lü Mosia ve law cäpa, Adam naw Pamhnama mtheh am ngja lü a mkhyekata mäiha mkhyekatnak am pawhkiea khana pi thihnak ve lawki. Adam cun ve law khai üng mtängnaka kyaki.
Yet, from Adam to Moses, death reigned even over those whose sin was not a breach of a law, as Adam’s was. And Adam foreshadows the one to come.
15 Cunsepi, bäkhäknak ja mkhyekatnak am täng. Isetiakyaküng, Pamhnama bäkhäknak cun Adama mkhyekatnak am, am täng. Khyang mata mkhyekata phäha khyang khawhah thiki. Cunsepi, khyang mat Jesuh Khritawa phäha khyang khawhah naw Pamhnam naw amdanga a jah yeta bäkhäknak yahkiea kyase Pamhnama bäkhäknak cun dämduh bawki ni.
But there is a contrast between Adam’s offence and God’s gracious gift. For, if by reason of the offence of the one man the whole human race died, far more were the loving kindness of God, and the gift given in the loving kindness of the one man, Jesus Christ, lavished on the whole human race.
16 Khyang mata mkhyekatnak ja Pamhnam naw amdanga a jah yet cun am täng ni. Khyang mat a mkhye käna “Mkhyekatnaka” ngthumkhyahnak pha lawki. Cunsepi mkhyenak khawhaha ve law käna “Mkhyekatnak am pawhkia kba” am yah ngkawiha bäkhäknak cun yahki ni.
There is a contrast, too, between the gift and the results of the one man’s sin. The judgment, which followed on the one man’s sin, resulted in condemnation, but God’s gracious gift, which followed on many offences, resulted in a decree of righteousness.
17 Mata mkhyekatnaka phäha pi thihnak naw a jah uk law üng, khyang mat, Jesuh Khritaw bilawha phäh ihlawk dämduhki mi yah khai ni. A bäkhäknak khawhaha yahei lü Khritaw üngkhyüh akxüng mi up lü ani am ngsungpyunsak yahei khaie ni.
For if, by reason of the offence of the one man, death reigned through that one man, far more will those, on whom God’s loving kindness and his gift of righteousness are lavished, find life, and reign through the one man, Jesus Christ.
18 Acunakyase, mata mkhyenak naw khyang naküt jah mkateiki. Acuna mäiha khyang mata ngsungpyunnak naw ngsungpyunnak ja xünnaka khyang naküt jah phapüiki.
Briefly then, just as a single offence resulted for all humanity in condemnation, so, too, a single decree of righteousness resulted for all humanity in that declaration of righteousness which brings life.
19 Khyang mat naw pyen am a ngjaka phäha khyang naküt mkhyekatnak am belawki he; acuna mäiha, khyang mat naw pyen a ngjak phäha khyang naküt ngsungpyun khaie.
For, as through the disobedience of the one man the whole human race was rendered sinful, so, too, through the obedience of the one, the whole human race will be rendered righteous.
20 Thum pha law lü mkhyekatnak nung lawki. Cunsepi, mkhyekatnak a nungnak naküta Pamhnama bäkhäknak däm law bawki.
Law was introduced in order that offences might be multiplied. But, where sins were multiplied, the loving kindness of God was lavished the more,
21 Mkhyekatnak naw thihnak am jah uk lü Pamhnama bäkhäknak naw ngsungpyunnak am uk lü mi Bawipa Jesuh khritaw üngka naw anglät xünnaka jah cehpüiki. (aiōnios g166)
in order that, just as sin had reigned in the realm of death, so, too, might loving-kindness reign through righteousness, and result in eternal life, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
