1 Peter 4
1 Te dongah pumsa ah Khrih patang coeng tih nangmih khaw poeknah neh amah la pumcum uh laeh. Pumsa ah aka patang long tah tholhnah te a moeng coeng.
Since Christ suffered physically, you must prepare yourselves with the same attitude he had—for those who suffer physically have turned away from sin.
2 Te dongah hoehhamnah kah hlang la om voel pawt tih pumsa ah hing tue aka coih te Pathen kongaih la om saeh.
You will not live the rest of your lives following human desires, but doing what God wants.
3 Khum tangtae a tue loh namtom rhoek kah kongaih la a thoeng te rhoeh coeng. Omthenbawn, cukhalhnah, yusoknah, omngaihlawnnah, yubueihnah neh aka lolh mueibawknah dongah ana pongpa uh.
In the past you've spent enough time following the ways of the world: immorality, sexual indulgence, drunken orgies, partying, binge drinking, and revolting idol-worship.
4 Te nen te a suel uh dongah na capit voel pawt tih tuihnum kah cungpoehnah ah amah la n'soehsal uh.
People think it's strange that you don't join them anymore in this wild and excessive lifestyle, so they curse at you. But they will have to explain what they've done to the one who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
5 Amih loh hlang duek neh hlang hing laitloek ham sikim la aka om taengah olka a thuung uh pueng ni.
That's why the good news was shared with those who've already died—
6 He ham ni aka duek taengah khaw a phong pah. Te nen ni pumsa ah hlang bangla hing ngawn cakhaw mueihla ah Pathen bangla lai a tloek uh eh.
so that although they were rightly judged as far as being sinful human beings is concerned, they could live in the spirit as far as God is concerned.
7 Tedae a cungkuem kah a bawtnah tah yoei coeng. Te dongah muet uh lamtah thangthuinah neh cue uh.
Everything is coming to an end! So think clearly and stay alert when you pray.
8 Lungnah loh tholh khaw rhaengpuei la a muekdah dongah a cungkuem lakah lungnah te nangmih taengah tlal khueh uh.
Most of all, you should love one another very deeply, for love covers many of the wrong things people do.
9 Kohuetnah om kolla khat neh khat taengah moeihoeih la om uh.
Show hospitality to each another, and don't complain.
10 Kutdoe rhip a dang vanbangla Pathen kah lungvatnah cungkuem dongah hnokhoem then la khat neh khat taengah thotat uh.
Whatever gift you've been given, share it with others among you, as people who wisely demonstrate God's grace in all its different forms.
11 Khat khat long khaw a thui atah Pathen kah olrhuh bangla thui saeh. Khat khat long ni a thohtat atah Pathen loh thadueng a koei pah bangla thotat saeh. Te daengah ni a. cungkuem dongah Jesuh Khrih lamloh Pathen te a thangpom eh. Thangpomnah neh thaomnah tah kumhal kah kumhal due amah taengah om. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Anyone who speaks should do so as though God is speaking through them. Anyone who wants to help others should do so through the strength that God gives, so that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. May glory and power be his forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Thintlo rhoek, nangmih taengkah noemcainah hmaitak dongah suel uh boeh. Nangmih ham aka om te nangmih taengah yinlai bangla ha thoeng coeng.
My friends, don't be alarmed at the “ordeals of fire” you're having, as if these were unexpected.
13 Tedae Khrih kah patangnah dongah na boek uh dongah omngaih uh. Te daengah ni a thangpomnah dongkah pumphoenah dongah khaw hlampan la na omngaih uh eh.
Be happy to the extent that you share in Christ's suffering, because when he appears in his glory, you will be incredibly happy!
14 Khrih ming neh n'thuithet atah na yoethen uh. Thangpomnah neh Pathen kah Mueihla tah nangmih soah duem coeng.
If you are cursed in Christ's name, you're blessed, for God's glorious spirit rests on you.
15 Nangmih ah khat khat loh hlang aka ngawn, hlanghuen, laihmu, calawhcakam hlang bangla patang boel saeh.
If you suffer, it should not be as a murderer, or a thief, or a criminal, or as a gossip—
16 Tedae Khrihca bangla a patang atah yak boel saeh lamtah a ming neh Pathen te thangpom saeh.
but if it's as a Christian, then you don't need to be ashamed. Instead praise God that you're called by that name!
17 Pathen im lamkah laitloeknah tue tah a tong coeng. Tedae mamih lamkah lamhma koinih Pathen kah olthangthen aka aek rhoek kah a palthamnah tah metlam nim te?
For the time of judgment has come—and it begins with the house of God. If it begins with us, what will be the end of those who reject God's good news?
18 Aka dueng long pataeng hnaeng hnaeng a khang atah baltalh neh hlangtholh tah melam a phoe eh?
“If it's hard for those who live right to be saved, what will happen to sinners, those who oppose God?”
19 Te dongah Pathen kah kongaih la aka patang rhoek long ngawn tah bibi then neh amamih kah hinglu te Suenkung uepom taengah nawn saeh.
So then those who suffer according to the will of God, the trustworthy Creator, should make sure they are doing good.
