Rom 7
1 Olkhueng ka thui vaengah aka ming manuca rhoek te na mangvawt uh nama? Te olkhueng loh hlang te a hing tue khuiah a buem ta.
Whether are you ignorant, O brethren, for I speak to those knowing the law, for the law hath dominion over a man for so long time as he may live?
2 Rhukom nu te a va a hing vaengah olkhueng neh a pinyen dae a va a duek atah a va kah olkhueng lamloh a hmil coeng.
For a woman who is under her husband has been given to her husband by the law so long as he lives; but if the husband may die, she is free from the law of the husband.
3 Te dongah a va a hing vaengah va tloe sa koinih samphaih la n'thui ni. Tedae a va te duek koinih olkhueng lamkah aka loeih la om tih va tloe a sak te a samphaih la om pawh.
Then if she may be married to another man, her husband still living, she will be designated an adulteress: but if her husband may die, she is free from the law; and is no adulteress, though she is married to another man.
4 Te dongah ka manuca rhoek nangmih khaw Khrih kah pum rhangneh olkhueng ham na duek coeng dongah nangmih tah Pathen taengah thaihtak hamla duek lamkah aka thoo tangtae hlang tloe ham na om uh.
So, my brethren, ye are dead to the law through the body of Christ, that ye should be married to another, to him who is risen from the dead, in order that we may bring forth fruit unto God.
5 Pumsa la n'om uh vaengah olkhueng rhangneh tholhnah kah patangnah loh mamih kah pumrho ah tueng tih dueknah la thaihtak.
For when we were in carnality, the emotions of sins, which were through the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
6 Tedae olkhueng lamloh m'hmil uh coeng. Aka duek rhoek tah te nen te n'khoh. Te dongah mamih loh sal m'bi ham he mueihla thai dongah tih, cabu rhuem dongah moenih.
But now we have been made free from the law, being dead in that in which we were held; so that we serve in the newness of the spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.
7 Te koinih balae n'thui eh? Olkhueng te tholhnah a? Tlam te om mahpawh. Tedae olkhueng lamkah pawt koinih tholhnah te ka ming mahpawh. Olkhueng loh nai boeh ti pawt koinih hoehhamnah khaw ka ming mahpawh.
Then what shall we say? is the law sin? It could not be so; but I did not know sin except through the law: for indeed I had not known lusts, unless the law said, Thou shalt not covet.
8 Tedae olpaek lamloh tholhnah te rhoidoengnah la a loh tih ka khuiah hoehhamnah boeih ha thoeng. Te dongah olkhueng mueh atah tholhnah loh duek.
But sin, taking occasion through the commandment, did work in me all concupiscence; for without law sin was dead.
9 Kai khaw hnukbuet ah olkhueng muehla ka hing dae olpaek ha pawk neh tholhnah te koe hing.
But I was alive at one time without law: but the commandment having come, sin revived,
10 Te dongah kai ka duek tih hingnah ham tila ka hmuh olpaek tah dueknah la poeh.
and I died; and the commandment, which was unto life, the same was unto death.
11 Tholhnah tah olpaek neh a rhoidoeng tih kai n'hoilae phoeiah n'ngawn.
For sin, taking occasion through the commandment, deceived me, and through it slew me.
12 Te dongah olkhueng tah cim, olpaek khaw cim tih dueng tih then.
So the law is indeed holy, and the commandment holy, and righteous, and good.
13 Te koinih aka then te kai ham dueknah la coeng a? coeng rhoerhoe mahpawh. Tedae tholh te tholhnah la hmat ham a then lamloh kai ham dueknah ha thoeng. Te dongah tholhnah tah olpaek lamloh a puehkan la tholh ha coeng.
Then did that which is good become death to me? it could not be so: but sin, that it may appear sin, through the good was working out death to me, in order that sin may be exceedingly sinful through the commandment.
14 Olkhueng tah mueihla ni tila m'ming uh dae pumsa la ka om dongah tholhnah hmuila n'yoih coeng.
For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, having been sold under sin.
15 Te dongah ka thoeng sak te khaw ka ming pawh. Ka ngaih te ka saii pawt tih ka hmuhuet vik te ka saii.
For that which I do, I know not: for I do that which I do not will; but I do that which I hate.
16 Tedae ka ngaih pawt te ka saii atah olkhueng te then tila ka paipuei.
But if I do that which I do not will, I consent to the law that it is beautiful;
17 Tahae kah tholh aka thoeng te kai voel pawt tih ka khuikah aka kol tholhnah long ni a saii.
but now it is no more I that do it, but sin dwelling in me.
18 Ka pumsa ah aka om te ka khuiah kol pawh tila ka ming. A then ngaih ham tah ka khuiah om dae a then tah ha thoeng laklo pawh.
For I know that in me, that is, in my carnal mind, there dwells no good thing. For to will is present with me, but to do that which is beautiful is not:
19 A then saii ham ka ngaih te ka saii pawt tih ka ngaih pawh a thae te ka saii.
for the good which I will I do not; but the evil which I do not will, that I do.
20 Ka ngaih pawt te ka saii atah te te ka thoeng sak pawt dae ka khuiah aka kol tholhnah long ni a saii.
If I do that which I do not will, it is no longer I that do it, but sin dwelling in me.
21 Te dongah a then saii ka ngaih vaengah kai taengah a thae te om tila a olkhueng he ka hmuh.
Then I find a law, that, to me wishing to do that which is beautiful, that the evil is present with me:
22 A khuikah hlang te Pathen kah olkhueng ah ni ka hmae.
for I delight in the law of God according to the inward man;
23 Olkhueng tloe te ka pumrho ah om tih ka lungbuei kah olkhueng te a vathoh thil. Te dongah ka pumrho ah aka om tholh kah olkhueng neh kai n'sol te ka ming.
but I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
24 Kai tah ngaidaeng ngaikha hlang ni. U long nim he dueknah pumsa dong lamloh kai n'hlawt ve.
O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
25 Tedae mamih kah Boeipa Jesuh Khrih rhangneh Pathen te ka lungvatnah. Te dongah kai kamah khaw lungbuei cungvang loh Pathen olkhueng kah sal ka bi dae ka pumsa tah tholhnah olkhueng neh om.
Thanks be unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord: then therefore with the mind I serve the law of God; but with carnality the law of sin.
