1 Korin 16

1 Kaciim kaminawk han hmuenmae na cong pae o naah, Kalati kricaabunawk khaeah ka thuih ih baktih toengah, na sak o toeng hanah koehhaih ka tawnh.

Now, concerning the collection which is for the saints, just as I directed the assemblies of Galatia, so, also do, ye: —

2 Kang zoh naah hmuenmae conghaih oh han ai ah, ni sarihto thung ni hmaloe koekah Sithaw khae hoi tahamhoihaih na hnuk o ih baktih toengah, hmuen to patung oh.

Upon the first of the week, let, each one of you, put, by itself, in store, as he may be prospering, —lest, as soon as I come, then, collections, should be in progress.

3 Kang zoh naah, na paek o ih hmuennawk Jerusalem ah thak hanah, nangcae mah ca hoiah anih loe kahoih kami ni, tiah na thuih o ih kami to ka patoeh han.

And, as soon as I arrive, whomsoever ye shall approve by letters, these, will I send, to bear away your favour unto Jerusalem:

4 Ka caeh toeng han angaih nahaeloe, nihcae doeh kai hoi nawnto caeh o tih.

And, if it be meet that, I also, be journeying, with me, shall they journey.

5 Macedonia prae phak pacoengah, nangcae khaeah kang zoh han: Macedonia prae hoiah ni ka caeh han.

Now I will come unto you, as soon as I have passed through Macedonia, —for I do pass through Macedonia,

6 Kholong ka caeh amsakhaih ahmuen kruekah ka caeh naah, nang bomh o thai hanah, ue, siktue nathung loe nangcae khaeah ka cam doeh om tih.

And, with you, I may perhaps sojourn, or winter, that, ye, may set me forward, whithersoever I may be journeying.

7 Vaihi kholong caeh kamroi ah loe nangcae tongh han ka koeh ai vop; Angraeng mah araem tih nahaeloe, nangcae hoi nawnto atue kasawkah cam han oephaih ka tawnh.

For I do not wish to see you, just now, by the way; for I hope to remain, some time, with you, —if, the Lord, permit.

8 Toe Pentecost ni karoek to Efisa vangpui ah ka cam han vop.

But I remain in Ephesus, until the Pentecost,

9 Kalen hoi hmacawnhaih khongkha loe kai hanah amongh, misa loe pop o parai.

For, a door, unto me, hath opened, great and effectual, and, opposers, are many.

10 Timote to angzo nahaeloe zithaih om ai ah nangcae hoi nawnto oh hanah thui pae oh: anih loe ka sak ih tok baktih toengah, Angraeng ih tok ni a sak toeng.

But, if Timothy should come, see that, without fear, he be with you, for, in the work of the Lord, doth he labour, even as, I:

11 To pongah mi mah doeh anih to patoek hmah nasoe: anih mah kamongah kai khae angzoh thai hanah, anih to thak oh: anih loe nawkamyanawk hoi nawnto kai khaeah angzo tih, tiah oephaih ka tawnh.

Let no one then despise him; and set ye him forward in peace, that he may come unto me, for I expect him with the brethren.

12 Aicae nawkamya Apollo loe, nawkamyanawk hoi nawnto nangcae khae angzoh hanah ka pacae: toe anih loe vaihi angzoh han koeh ai vop; anih loe atue raem naah angzo tih.

But, concerning Apollos the brother, much, did I beseech him, that he would come unto you, with the brethren, but there was, by no means, any will, that he should come, now; —he will come, however, as soon as he hath good opportunity.

13 Acoehaih hoiah zing oh, tanghaih bangah kacakah angdoe oh, nongpa baktiah misahoih oh loe, thacak oh.

Be on the watch, stand firm in the faith, be men—be strong;

14 Na sak ih hmuennawk boih amlunghaih hoiah sah oh.

Let, all your affairs, in love, be carried on.

15 Nawkamyanawk, (Stephen imthung takoh loe, Akaia prae thungah Sithaw tanghaih tawn tangsuek kami ah oh moe, Sithaw ih kaciim kaminawk hanah sak thai thung toksak hanah ang paek o, tiah na panoek o, )

Now I beseech you, brethren, —ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is a first-fruit of Achaia, and, for the purpose of ministering, they devoted themselves, unto the saints—

16 nangcae doeh to tiah toksak moe, aicae hoi nawnto toksah kami, toksah kalah kaminawk boih khaeah nang paek o toeng hanah kang pacae o.

That, ye also, be submitting yourselves unto such as these, —and unto everyone helping in the work and toiling.

17 Na tawn o ai ih hmuen to nihcae mah ang paek o pongah, Stephanas, Phortunata, Akaika cae angzohhaih nuiah anghoehaih ka tawnh.

I Rejoice, moreover, in the presence of Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus: because, your own shortcoming, these, have filled up: —

18 Nihcae mah ka poekhaih hoi na poek o haih to tha ang ohsak let: to pongah to baktih kaminawk to pakoeh oh.

They have given rest, in fact, unto my spirit, and yours: hold in acknowledgment, therefore, such as these.

19 Asia prae kricaabunawk mah ban ang sin o. Akuila hoi Priscilla, nihnik im ah amkhueng kricaabu mah nawnto Angraeng hmin hoiah ban ang sin o.

The assemblies of Asia salute you: Aquila and Priscilla, with the assembly meeting at their house, salute you much in the Lord:

20 Nawkamyanawk boih mah ban ang sin o. Maeto hoi maeto kaciim angmokhaih hoiah ban ang sin oh.

All the brethren salute you: —Salute ye one another with a holy kiss.

21 Bansinhaih ca loe kai, Pawl mah ni ka tarik.

The salutation of Paul—with my own hand.

22 Mi kawbaktih doeh Angraeng Jesu Kri palung ai kami loe, a nuiah Anathema Maranatha om nasoe. Aw Angraeng, angzo ah.

If anyone doth not dearly love the Lord, let him be anathema [that is, "accursed"]: Maran atha [that is, "The Lord, cometh"].

23 Nangcae khaeah Angraeng Jesu Kri tahmenhaih om nasoe.

The favour of the Lord Jesus, be with you.

24 Kri Jesu ah kam lunghaih to nangcae boih khaeah om nasoe. Amen.

My love, be with you all, in Christ Jesus.
