Rom 8
1 Tahae atah Jesuh Khrih ah aka om rhoek te dantatnah om pawh.
There is, therefore, now no condemnation for those who are in union with Christ Jesus;
2 Jesuh Khrih ah hingnah Mueihla kah olkhueng loh tholhnah neh dueknah kah olkhueng lamkah nang n'loeih sak coeng.
for through your union with Christ Jesus, the Law of the life-giving Spirit has set you free from the Law of Sin and Death.
3 Pumsa neh a vawtthoek vaengah ni olkhueng ham a lolh pueng te. Pathen loh a capa te tholhnah pumsa kah mueisa la han tueih tih aka tholh bangla pumsa dongkah tholh ah a boe sak.
What Law could not do, in so far as our earthly nature weakened its action, God did, by sending his own Son, with a nature resembling our sinful nature, to atone for sin. He condemned sin in that earthly nature,
4 Te daengah ni olkhueng kah rhilam tah pumsa saloel la aka cet pawt tih Mueihla ah aka cet mamih ah a soep eh.
so that the requirements of the Law might be satisfied in us who live now in obedience, not to our earthly nature, but to the Spirit.
5 Pumsa saloel la aka om rhoek loh pumsa kah te a poek uh. Tedae Mueihla kah rhoek long tah Mueihla kah te a poek.
They who follow their earthly nature are earthly-minded, while they who follow the Spirit are spiritually minded.
6 Te dongah pumsa kah poeknah tah dueknah tih Mueihla kah poeknah tah hingnah neh rhoepnah ni.
To be earthly-minded means Death, to be spiritually minded means Life and Peace;
7 Pumsa kah poeknah loh Pathen kah olkhueng taengah boengai pawt tih a coeng thai pawt dongah Pathen taengah thunkha la om.
because to be earthly-minded is to be an enemy to God, for such a mind does not submit to the Law of God, nor indeed can it do so.
8 Te dongah pumsa ah aka om rhoek tah Pathen te a kolo sak thai pawh.
They who are earthly cannot please God.
9 Tedae nangmih tah pumsa ah pawt tih Mueihla ah na om uh atah nangmih khuiah Pathen kah Mueihla kol ta. Tedae khat khat long ni Khrih Mueihla a khueh pawt atah anih te Khrih kah hut la om pawh.
You, however, are not earthly but spiritual, since the Spirit of God lives within you. Unless a man has the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ;
10 Khrih he nangmih ah a om atah pum cungvang loh tholh ah duek. Tedae Mueihla tah duengnah dongah hingnah neh om coeng.
but, if Christ is within you, then, though the body is dead as a consequence of sin, the spirit is Life as a consequence of righteousness.
11 Te phoeiah Jesuh te duek lamkah aka thoh Pathen kah Mueihla te nangmih ah a om atah, duek lamkah Khrih aka thoh loh nangmih khuikah a Mueihla a om rhangneh aka nguelpawh na pum te khaw a hing sak ni.
And, if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead lives within you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will give Life even to your mortal bodies, through his Spirit living within you.
12 Te dongah manuca rhoek laihmu la n'om uh dongah pumsa saloel la pumsa dongah hing ham moenih.
So then, Brothers, we owe nothing to our earthly nature, that we should live in obedience to it.
13 Pumsa la na hing uh atah na duek uh ni. Tedae pum kah pongthoh te mueihla lamloh na duek sak uh atah na hing uh ni.
If you live in obedience to your earthly nature, you will inevitably die; but if, by the power of the Spirit, you put an end to the evil habits of the body, you will live.
14 Pathen kah mueihla loh a mawt boeih tah Pathen kah a ca rhoek ni.
All who are guided by the Spirit of God are Sons of God.
15 Te dongah rhihnah la koep aka thak sal kah mueihla na dang uh pawt tih cacah kah Mueihla na dang uh. Te nen ni pa te Abba la n'khue uh.
For you did not receive the spirit of a slave, to fill you once more with fear, but the spirit of a son which leads us to cry ‘Abba, Our Father.’
16 Pathen kah ca rhoek la n'om uh tila Mueihla amah loh mamih kah mueihla taengah a mingpuei coeng.
The Spirit himself unites with our spirits in bearing witness to our being God’s children,
17 Te phoeiah a ca rhoek la a om uh atah rhopangkung la n'omuh. Pathen kah rhopangkung tah Khrih kah rho aka pang hmaih la n'omuh. Patang hmaih van daengah ni n'thangpom van eh.
and if children, then heirs — heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ, since we share Christ’s sufferings in order that we may also share his Glory.
18 Mamih taengah pumphoe ham aka cai thangpomnah neh tahae tue kah patangnah tah tingtawk pawh tila poek uh.
I do not count the sufferings of our present life worthy of mention when compared with the Glory that is to be revealed and bestowed upon us.
19 Te dongah suentae kah rhingoelnah loh Pathen ca rhoek kah a pumphoenah te a lamtawn.
All Nature awaits with eager expectation the appearing of the Sons of God.
20 Suentae loh a honghi dongah a boengai te a thahlue pawh. Tedae ngaiuepnah dongah boe a ngai sak.
For Nature was made subject to imperfection — not by its own choice, but owing to him who made it so —
21 Te dongah suentae mah khaw hmawnnah sal lamkah Pathen ca rhoek kah thangpom dongah poenghalnah khuila loeih ni.
yet not without the hope that some day Nature, also, will be set free from enslavement to decay, and will attain to the freedom which will mark the Glory of the Children of God.
22 Suentae boeih loh kopang tih tahae duela a patang te m'ming uh.
We know, indeed, that all Nature alike has been groaning in the pains of labour to this very hour.
23 Te bueng pawt tih mamih khaw mueihla thaihcuek te n'khueh uh. Mamih khaw m'mah khuiah tah ng'huei uh tih a cacah la mamih pum kah tlannah te n'lamtawn uh.
And not Nature only; but we ourselves also, though we have already a first gift of the Spirit — we ourselves are inwardly groaning, while we eagerly await our full adoption as Sons — the redemption of our bodies.
24 Te dongah ngaiuepnah neh mamih n'khang. Tedae hmuh tangtae dongkah ngaiuepnah tah ngaiuepnah la om pawh. A hmuh tangtae te pakhat long khaw a ngaiuep a?
By our hope we were saved. But the thing hoped for is no longer an object of hope when it is before our eyes; for who hopes for what is before his eyes?
25 Tedae hmuh mueh te ngaiuep uh atah uehnah neh lamtawn uh sih.
But when we hope for what is not before our eyes, then we wait for it with patience.
26 Te banghui la mamih kah vawtthoeknah dongah mueihla loh m'bom van. Thangthui ham a kuek te m'ming uh moenih. Tedae Mueihla amah loh thuilek pawt hil hueinah neh rhi a khang.
So, also, the Spirit supports us in our weakness. We do not even know how to pray as we should; but the Spirit himself pleads for us in sighs that can find no utterance.
27 Thinko aka khe loh mueihla kah poeknah te a ming. Pathen kah ninglam la hlangcim rhoek ham a huithui pah.
Yet he who searches all our hearts knows what the Spirit’s meaning is, because the pleadings of the Spirit for Christ’s People are in accordance with his will.
28 Tedae Pathen loh a lungnah tih a mangtaeng bangla khue la aka om rhoek ham tah a then la boeih a bongyong te m'ming uh.
But we do know that God causes all things to work together for the good of those who love him — those who have received the Call in accordance with his purpose.
29 A ming oepsoeh rhoek te tah boeina phung muep lakah camingomthang la om sak ham a capa kah mueimae phek la a nuen coeng.
For those whom God chose from the first he also destined from the first to be transformed into likeness to his Son, so that his Son might be the eldest among many Brothers.
30 Te dongah a nuen tangtae te a khue. Tekah a khue te khaw a tang sak. A tang sak tangtae te a thangpom.
And those whom God destined for this he also called; and those whom he called he also pronounced righteous; and those whom he pronounced righteous he also brought to Glory.
31 Te koinih he rhoek ham balae n'thui uh eh? Pathen te mamih ham coeng atah unim mamih aka pai thil eh?
What are we to say, then, in the light of all this? If God is on our side, who can there be against us?
32 Amah loh a capa pataeng a hlun moenih. Tedae mamih boeih ham ni anih te a voeih. Te dongah a taengkah boeih khaw metlam mamih n'rhen pawt eh?
God did not withhold his own Son, but gave him up on behalf of us all; will he not, then, with him, freely give us all things?
33 Pathen kah a coelh te unim aka tingtoeh eh? Pathen loh a tang sak te u long a boe sak?
Who will bring a charge against any of God’s People? He who pronounces them righteous is God!
34 Jesuh Khrih he duek dae thoo pataeng coeng. Amah tah Pathen kah bantang ah om bal tih mamih ham huithui coeng.
Who is there to condemn them? He who died for us is Christ Jesus! — or, rather, it was he who was raised from the dead, and who is now at God’s right hand and is even pleading on our behalf!
35 Khrih kah lungnah lamkah u long nim mamih paekboe eh? Phacip phabaem neh citcai nim, hnaemtaeknah neh khokha nim, a tlingyal a, khoponah a, cunghang nim?
Who is there to separate us from the love of the Christ? Will trouble, or difficulty, or persecution, or hunger, or nakedness, or danger, or the sword?
36 A daek vanbangla nang kongah hnin at puet n'duek sak uh tih tu bangla maeh la m'hmoel uh.
Scripture says — ‘For thy sake we are being killed all the day long, We are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.’
37 Tedae mamih aka lungnah taeng lamloh he rhoek boeih he rhep n'na uh coeng.
Yet amidst all these things we more than conquer through him who loved us!
38 Dueknah neh hingnah long pawt nim, puencawn rhoek neh boeilu rhoek long pawt nim, aka pai nawn neh aka thoeng ham long pawt nim, thaomnah long pawt nim,
For I am persuaded that neither Death, nor Life, nor Angels, nor Archangels, nor the Present, nor the Future, nor any Powers,
39 a bawn neh a dung long pawt nim, a saihluen khat khat long pawt nim tila ka phaep uh phat coeng. Te dongah a tloe loh mamih Boeipa Jesuh Khrih ah Pathen kah lungnah neh mamih m'paekboe thai aya?
nor Height, nor Depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God revealed in Christ Jesus, our Lord!
