Rom 12
1 Te dongah manuca rhoek nangmih, Pathen kah sitlohnah lamlong ni nangmih pum te Pathen taengah uem koi neh aka cim, aka hing hmueih la paek ham kan hloep. Nangmih kah mueihla thothuengnah tah he pawn ni.
Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.
2 Te dongah hekah diklai he rhoii uh boeh. Tedae lungbuei tlaihvongnah neh thohai uh. Pathen kah kongaih neh a boethen, a kolo neh a lungcuei te tah na soepsoei uh ni ta. (aiōn g165)
Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God. (aiōn g165)
3 Nangmih ah aka om boeih te kamah taengah m'paek lungvatnah neh ka thui. Poek ham a kuek te poek voelh aih boeh. Pathen loh tangnah cungnueh bangla rhip a tultael te poek hamla muet uh lah.
For I say through the grace that was given me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of yourself more highly than you ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.
4 Pum pakhat ah pumrho muep n'khueh uh van bangla, pumrho boeih loh a pongthoh te amah boeiloeih la a khueh uh moenih.
For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members don’t have the same function,
5 He yet long he Khrih ah pum pakhat la n'om uh tih pakhat he khat pumrho boeiloeih ni.
so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another,
6 Te dongah lungvatnah n'dang uh tarhing ah mamih te kutdoe a poekhloep la m'paek coeng tih tonghma khaw tangnah kah a tarhing la phong saeh.
having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us: if prophecy, let’s prophesy according to the proportion of our faith;
7 Bibi te khaw bibi ah, aka thuituen long khaw thuituennah dongah, aka hloep long khaw thaphohnah dongah,
or service, let’s give ourselves to service; or he who teaches, to his teaching;
8 aka doedan loh moeihoeihnah neh, aka mawt loh thahluenah neh, aka rhen loh omngaih cangtloeng neh, om saeh.
or he who exhorts, to his exhorting; he who gives, let him do it with generosity; he who rules, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
9 Lungnah tah hmantang saeh. A thae te tuei lamtah a then taengla kap uh.
Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.
10 Pakhat te manuca lungnah neh saelong lamtah, pakhat te hinyahnah neh ngai uh.
In love of the brothers be tenderly affectionate to one another; in honor prefer one another,
11 Thahluenah neh om lamtah yaikat uh boeh. Mueihla te cahoeh lamtah Boeipa te salbi pah.
not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord,
12 Ngaiuepnah neh omngaih uh. Phacip phabaem te ueh uh. Thangthuinah te khuituk uh.
rejoicing in hope, enduring in troubles, continuing steadfastly in prayer,
13 Hlangcim rhoek kah a ngoengaih te boek uh lamtah yinlungnah te hnuktlak uh.
contributing to the needs of the saints, and given to hospitality.
14 Nangmih aka hnaemtaek rhoek te uem uh. Na uem phoeiah tah thaephoei boeh,
Bless those who persecute you; bless, and don’t curse.
15 Omngaih taengah omngaih uh, aka rhap taengah rhap uh.
Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep.
16 Khat neh khat te vantlip la khopoek uh, a sang khaw te poek uh boel lamtah tlayae te rhoi uh mai. Namamih khuiah aka cueih la ngai uh boeh.
Be of the same mind one toward another. Don’t set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Don’t be wise in your own conceits.
17 Hlang boeih hmaiah a then la kho aka khan loh a thae te a thae la a thuung moenih.
Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honorable in the sight of all men.
18 A coeng thai atah nangmih lamloh te hlang boeih neh rhoep uh thae.
If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.
19 Thintlo rhoek namamih loh thuung boeh tedae a thintoek te hmuen paek pah. A daek coeng dongah Boeipa loh, “Kutthungnah he kai hut, ka sah bitni,” a ti,
Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.”
20 Tedae na rhal te a pong atah cah, a halh atah tul, Tlamte na saii daengah ni a lu ah hmai alh na poep eh.
Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head.”
21 A thae neh han noeng boeh, Tedae a thae te a then neh noeng lah.
Don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
