1 Khawrin 5
1 Na khuikah Cukhalnah te pungpung ka yaak vaengah tebang Cukhalnah te namtom rhoek taengah khaw a om moenih. A napa kah a yuu mai pakhat la aka cut puei aih te tah.
It is said, in fact, that there is among you a sin of the flesh, such as is not seen even among the Gentiles, that one of you has his father's wife.
2 Tedae nangmih tah hoemdawk neh na om uh tih na nguek uh lah pawh. Te dongah hebang khoboe aka saii te tah na khui lamloh khoe uh saw.
And in place of feeling sorrow, you are pleased with yourselves, so that he who has done this thing has not been sent away from among you.
3 Kai tah pumsa ah lakhla ngawn dae mueihla ah tah n'om hmaih ta. He tla aka thoeng van te tah a om bangla mamih kah Boeipa Jesuh ming neh ka kamkaih coeng.
For I myself, being present in spirit though not in body, have come to a decision about him who has done this thing;
4 Na tingtun uh vaengah mamih Boeipa Jesuh kah thaomnah neh ka mueihla nangmih taengah om.
In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you have come together with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,
5 Te te pumsa a rhawpnah ham Satan taengla voeih ham om. Te daengah ni mueihla loh Boeipa kah Khohnin ah a daem eh.
That this man is to be handed over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may have forgiveness in the day of the Lord Jesus.
6 Nangmih kah thangpomnah tah then pawh. Tolrhu a yol loh vaidam hlom at te boeih a rhoi sak te na ming uh mahnim?
This pride of yours is not good. Do you not see that a little leaven makes a change in all the mass?
7 Vaidamding la na om uh dongah tolrhu rhuem te sil uh laeh. Te daengah ni a. hlom thai la na om uh eh. Mamih kah yoom tuca Khrih pataeng a ngawn coeng.
Take away, then, the old leaven, so that you may be a new mass, even as you are without leaven. For Christ has been put to death as our Passover.
8 Te dongah tolrhu rhuem nen moenih, phayoenah neh halangnah tolrhu nen bal moenih, cimcaihnah oltak vaidamding nen mah khotue uh sih.
Let us then keep the feast, not with old leaven, and not with the leaven of evil thoughts and acts, but with the unleavened bread of true thoughts and right feelings.
9 Hlanghalh rhoek neh rhoinaeng pawt ham capat dongah nangmih ham kan daek.
In my letter I said to you that you were not to keep company with those who go after the desires of the flesh;
10 He Diklai kah hlanghalh rhoek khaw, halhka rhoek khaw, kutveet khaw, mueibawk bawk rhoek khaw ben loengloeng boeh. Te dongah Diklai lamloh na coe ham te na a kuek.
But I had not in mind the sinners who are outside the church, or those who have a desire for and take the property of others, or those who give worship to images; for it is not possible to keep away from such people without going out of the world completely:
11 Tedae nangmih taengah kan daek he tah manuca la a khue taengtae pakhat long khaw hlanghalh la, halhka la, mueibawk la, olbaikung la, yumi la, kutveet la a om atah rhoinaeng puei boeh. Amih te caak puei boeh.
But the sense of my letter was that if a brother had the name of being one who went after the desires of the flesh, or had the desire for other people's property, or was in the way of using violent language, or being the worse for drink, or took by force what was not his, you might not keep company with such a one, or take food with him.
12 Imlang la lai a tloek ham te kai hut a? Namamih khuikah te lai na tloek uh mahnim?
For it is no business of mine to be judging those who are outside; but it is yours to be judging those who are among you;
13 Tedae imlang hlang te Pathen loh lai a tloek bit ni. Aka thae te nangmih lamkah rhoe uh.
As for those who are outside, God is their judge. So put away the evil man from among you.
