2 Kawrin 13

1 Nangmih taengah voeithum ka pawk coeng he. Olka boeih tah laipai panit pathum kah a ka neh a pai puei bitni.

This the third time I am coming to you: in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall be established.

2 Ka thui coeng dongah ni lakhla vaengah khaw aka om pabae bangla ka thui. Tahae ah aka tholh tangtae rhoek neh a tloe boeih te khaw koep ka pawk atah kan hlun mahpawh.

I have told you beforehand, and I am speaking to you in advance, as being present the second time, even now absent, that, if I may come to you again, I will not spare those who have previously sinned, and all the rest;

3 Ka khuiah Khrih a cal te loepdaknah neh na toem uh. Anih tah nangmih ah tattloel pawt tih nangmih khuiah tlung ta.

since you are seeking the approval of Christ, who is speaking in me, who is not weak towards you, bit mighty among you.

4 Vawtthoeknah neh tai cakhaw Pathen kah a thaomnah neh hing coeng. Mamih khaw amah dongah n'tattloel uh dae na taengkah Pathen thaomnah neh amah taengah n'hing uh bitni.

For indeed he was crucified from weakness, but he lives by the power of God: for we indeed are weak in him, but we shall live with him through the power of God unto you.

5 Namamih te noem uh lah, tangnah dongah na om nim. Namamih te nuemnai uh lah. Na khuikah Jesuh Khrih te na hmat uh pawt ve. Te pawt koinih a lolhmaih lam ni na om uh.

Prove your own selves, if you are in the faith; examine yourselves; whether do you not know yourselves, that Christ Jesus is in you? unless indeed you are reprobates.

6 Tedae na ming uh bitni tila ka ngaiuep. Kaimih tah a lolhmaih la ka om uh moenih.

But I hope that you shall know that we are not reprobates.

7 Nangmih te a thae la n'saii loengloeng pawt ham ni Pathen taengah ka thangthui uh. Kaimih loh ueppang la ka phoe uh mai pawt cakhaw nangmih tah a then mah saii uh mai. Kaimih he a lolhmaih lam khaw ka om uh mai thai.

But we are praying unto God, that he may do you no evil, not in order that we may appear approved, but that you may do that which is good, and we may be as disapproved.

8 Oltak kah a voelah pakhat khaw n'saii thai moenih, oltak ham ni n'saii.

For we are not able to do any thing against the truth, but for the truth.

9 Kaimih loh ka tattloel uh vaengah nangmih loh tatthai la na om uh dongah ka omngaih uh. Nangmih kah na cungkuemnah ham ni ka thangthui uh van he.

For we rejoice when we may be weak, and you may be strong: we are praying for even this, your perfection.

10 Lakhla vaengah ka daek coeng dongah he ka om vaengah khaw ka rhoidoeng aih mahpawh. Boeipa loh saithainah kai m'paek he hlinsainah ham ni koengloengnah ham moenih.

Therefore being absent I write these things, in order that being present, I may not use severity, according to the power which the Lord has given me for edification, and not for destruction.

11 A tloihsoi ah manuca rhoek omngaih uh lah, moeh uh lah, hloephoelh uh thae lah, thikat la poek uh lah, rhoep uh thae lah. Te dongah lungnah neh rhoepnah Pathen tah nangmih taengah om saeh.

Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect; be of good comfort; think the same thing, live in peace: and the God of love and peace will be with you.

12 Moknah cim neh khat neh khat toidal uh lah.

Salute one another with a holy kiss.

13 Hlang ciim rhoek boeih loh nangmih te n'toidal uh.

All the saints salute you.

14 Boeipa Jesuh Khrih kah lungvatnah, Pathen kah lungnah neh, Cim Mueihla kah rhoinaengnah tah nangmih boeih taengah om saeh.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.
