Galati 5

1 Mamih kah poenghalnah ham Khrih loh n'loeih sak dongah khak pai lamtah sal kah hnamkun te koep ngai boeh.

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again in the yoke of bondage.

2 Kai, Paul loh nangmih taengah, “Yahvin na rhet uh pueng atah Khrih he nangmih ham a phu om mahpawh,” ka ti coeng he.

Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.

3 Te phoeiah yahvin aka rhet hlang boeih tah olkhueng te boeih vai ham laiba om tila koep ka laipai.

And I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to the whole law.

4 Khrih lamkah naka nong tih olkhueng neh aka tang long tah lungvatnah na hlong coeng.

Christ is become nothing to you, whosoever of you are seeking to be justified by the law: ye are fallen from the grace of the gospel.

5 Mamih loh duengnah dongkah ngaiuepnah te tangnah mueihla neh n'lamtawn uh.

For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.

6 Te dongah Jesuh Khrih ah yahvinrhet khaw tloe pawh, pumdul khaw pakhat pataeng a tloe moenih. Tedae tangnah tah lungnah dongah pongthoo ta.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but faith which worketh by love.

7 Balh na yong uh tih oltak te ngaitang pawt ham unim nangmih aka mah.

Ye did run well: who hindered you from obeying the truth?

8 Hloihhlamnah tah nangmih aka khue taeng lamkah moenih.

This persuasion came not from him that called you: but a little leaven leaveneth the whole mass.

9 Tolrhu thamap ca vaidam hlom boeih a rhoi sak.

I have confidence in you however through the Lord,

10 Kai loh Boeipa dongah nangmih kan pangtung thil te a tloe la poek uh boeh. Tedae nangmih aka hinghuen tah u khaw om mai saeh laitloeknah a phueih bitni.

that ye will not think otherwise: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgement, whosoever he be.

11 Tedae ka manuca rhoek aw, yahvinrhetnah ka hoe pueng atah balae tih vawk n'hnaemtaek. Te dongah thangkui long tah thinglam dongkah ni a. hmil.

And I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted by the Jews? for then the offence of the cross is ceased.

12 Nangmih aka palet rhoek tah hlueng pataeng ka ngaih.

I wish they were even cut off from your communion, that make such disturbance amongst you.

13 Te dongah manuca rhoek, poenghalnah khuila nangmih n'khue. Tedae rhoidoengnah he pumsa rhoidoengnah dawk ham moenih ta. Lungnah lamloh khat neh khat salbi uh.

For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only abuse not this liberty for an occasion to indulge the flesh, but by mutual love serve one another.

14 Olkhueng boeih he ol pakhat dongah soep coeng. Te khuiah, “Na imben te namah bangla lungnah,” a ti.

For all the law is fulfilled in one precept, even in this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

15 Tedae khat neh khat na nget uh tih na yoop uh thae atah ana noek uh, khat khat neh na hlawp uh thae mahpawt nim.

But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not destroyed by one another.

16 Te phoeiah Mueihla neh pongpa uh lamtah pumsa hoehhamnah te hoem uh loengloeng boeh ka ti.

I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye will not fulfil the desire of the flesh:

17 Pumsa ngaih loh mueihla te a koek tih Mueihla loh pumsa te a koek. Te tah khat neh khat kingkalh uh. Te dongah na ngaih pawt te na saii uh.

for the flesh desireth things contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit things contrary to the flesh: and these are opposite to each other; so that ye do not those things which ye would.

18 Tedae Mueihla loh m'mawt atah olkhueng hmuiah na om uh pawh.

But if ye be led by the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

19 Pumsa kah khoboe tah mingpha la om coeng. Te rhoek tah Cukhalnah, rhongingnah, omthenbawn,

Now the works of the flesh are manifest, such as, adultery, fornication, uncleanness,

20 Mueibawknah, rhunsi khuehnah, thunkhanah, tohhaemnah, kohlopnah, thinsanah, koevoeinah, paekboenah, buhlaelh,

lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, enmities, strifes, emulations, animosities, contentions, divisions,

21 uethnetnah, rhuihahnah, omngaihlawn he ni. Hekah phek la om. Tekah te thui tangtae bangla te bang kho aka boe rhoek loh Pathen kah ram pang mahpawh tila nangmih taengah ka thui.

heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and the like: of which I forewarn you, as I have also told you before, that they who practise such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

22 Tedae Mueihla kah a thaih tah lungnah, omngaihnah, rhoepnah, thinsennah, rhennah, boethennah, tangnah,

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering,

23 muelhtuetnah, kuemsuemnah ni. Tebang te olkhueng loh a kingkalh om pawh.

gentleness, goodness, fidelity, meekness, temperance: against such things there is no law.

24 Tedae Jesuh Khrih kah rhoek long tah pumsa patangnah neh hoehhamnah te hmaih a tai coeng.

And they, that are Christ's, have crucified the flesh with it's passions and desires.

25 Mueihla neh n'hing uh atah Mueihla lamloh m'vai uh van ni.

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

26 Hoemdawk la khat neh khat takloh neh, khat neh khat uethnet neh om uh boel sih.

Let us not be vain-glorious, provoking one another, envying one another.
