Rom 9
1 Khrih ah oltak ka thui tih kai laithae moenih. Mueihla Cim ah ka mingcimnahte ka khuiah a phong.
I say [the] truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience bearing witness with me in [the] Holy Spirit,
2 Kothaenah loh kai taengah duel ha om tih lungnat loh ka thinkoah puh.
that I have great grief and uninterrupted pain in my heart,
3 Te dongah pumsa ah ka huiko ka manucarhoek yueng la kamah rhoe Khrih lamloh ka paek uh vetih kosi yook ham ka thangthui.
for I have wished, I myself, to be a curse from the Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen, according to flesh;
4 Amih tah Israelrhoek ni, cacah neh thangpomnah khaw, paipirhoek neh olrhinah khaw, thothuengnah khaw, olkhueh khaw amih kah ni.
who are Israelites; whose [is] the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the law-giving, and the service, and the promises;
5 A naparhoek neh amih lamkah ni Khrih te pumsa ah ha thoeng. A cungkuem soah aka om Pathen tah kumhal ah uemom pai saeh. Amen. (aiōn g165)
whose [are] the fathers; and of whom, as according to flesh, [is] the Christ, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
6 Tedae Pathen kah olka tah hmata pawh. Israel he khaw Israel lamkah boeih noenih.
Not however as though the word of God had failed; for not all [are] Israel which [are] of Israel;
7 Abraham kah tiinganlaa om uh dongaha ca boeih pawt dae Isaak ah na tiinganlaa khue ni a ti ta.
nor because they are seed of Abraham [are] all children: but, In Isaac shall a seed be called to thee.
8 Te tah pumsa kah camoe la aka om pawtrhoek tah Pathen kaha ca rhoek la om. Tedae olkhueh kah carhoek taha tiingan laa nawt.
That is, [they that are] the children of the flesh, these [are] not the children of God; but the children of the promise are reckoned as seed.
9 He olkhueh ol loh, “A tue ah ka pawk vetih Sarah capa om ni,” a ti.
For this word [is] of promise, According to this time I will come, and there shall be a son to Sarah.
10 Te bueng pawt tih Ribekka khaw a pa Isaak bueng nen ni a ihnaha om.
And not only [that], but Rebecca having conceived by one, Isaac our father,
11 A cun hlan tih thae then pakhat khaw a saii uh moenih. Te daengah ni a coelh bangla Pathen kah mangtaengnah tea naeh eh.
[the children] indeed being not yet born, or having done anything good or worthless (that the purpose of God according to election might abide, not of works, but of him that calls),
12 Khoboe dongah pawt tiha khue rhangnen ni anih te, “Tanglue loh mathoe kah sal a bi ni,” a ti nah.
it was said to her, The greater shall serve the less:
13 A daek van bangla Jakob te ka lungnah tih Esau te ka hmuhuet coeng.
according as it is written, I have loved Jacob, and I have hated Esau.
14 Te koinih balae n'ti eh? Pathen he boethae pawt nim? Tlamte a om moenih.
What shall we say then? [Is there] unrighteousness with God? Far be the thought.
15 Moses te, “Ka rhen tangtae te tah ka rhen bal vetih ka sitloh tangtae te tah sitloh bal ni,” a ti nah.
For he says to Moses, I will shew mercy to whom I will shew mercy, and I will feel compassion for whom I will feel compassion.
16 Te dongah aka ngaih kah pawt tih aka yong kah tangloeng moenih. Tedae Pathen kah a rhenrhoek kah ni.
So then [it is] not of him that wills, nor of him that runs, but of God that shews mercy.
17 Cacim loh Pharaoh te, “Nang te amah la kan pacuet. Te daengah ni ka thaomnah te nang ah ka phoe eh. Te daengah ni diklai pum ah ka ming a doek eh?,” a ti nah.
For the scripture says to Pharaoh, For this very thing I have raised thee up from amongst [men], that I might thus shew in thee my power, and so that my name should be declared in all the earth.
18 Te dongaha ngaih tea rhen tiha ngaih tea ning sak tangloeng.
So then, to whom he will he shews mercy, and whom he will he hardens.
19 Kai taengah na ti tangloeng te. Balae tih vawka coel? Amah kah kongaih te unim aka kamkaih?
Thou wilt say to me then, Why does he yet find fault? for who resists his purpose?
20 Aw u hlang nang dae nim Pathen te oelh la naka om, a saii hno loh aka hlom aka bol kung te, “Balaetih kai nan saii van?” na tinah pawt nim?
Aye, but thou, O man, who art thou that answerest again to God? Shall the thing formed say to him that has formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
21 Ambop loh amlai tea hlom boeiloeih dae he tah tuisi am la, ke tah am mailai la saithainaha khueh moenih a?
Or has not the potter authority over the clay, out of the same lump to make one vessel to honour, and another to dishonour?
22 Tedae Pathen loha kosi sah ham neh a tatthai te phoe sak ham a ngaih. pocinah hama hmoel kosi amte thinsennah neh muep ueh koinih ta?
And if God, minded to shew his wrath and to make his power known, endured with much long-suffering vessels of wrath fitted for destruction;
23 Te daengah ni amah kah thangpomnah cungkuem te rhennah am dongaha phoe sak tangloeng eh. Te ni thangpomnah laa hmoel.
and that he might make known the riches of his glory upon vessels of mercy, which he had before prepared for glory,
24 Mamih khaw Judahrhoek lamkah bueng pawt tih namtomrhoek lamkah khawa khue van ta.
us, whom he has also called, not only from amongst [the] Jews, but also from amongst [the] nations?
25 Hosea dongah, “Ka pilnam pawt te ka pilnam la, lungnah pawt te lungnah la ka khue ni.
As he says also in Hosea, I will call not-my-people My people; and the-not-beloved Beloved.
26 Te vaengah amih te, 'Nangmih he ka pilnam moenih,’ a tinah hmuen ah aka hing Pathen kah a ca rhoek la khue la om ni,” a ti van bangla,
And it shall be, in the place where it was said to them, Ye [are] not my people, there shall they be called Sons of [the] living God.
27 Isaiah long tah Israel ham, “Israel carhoek kah hlangmi tah tuitunli kah laivin bangla om cakhawa meet ni a daem eh.
But Esaias cries concerning Israel, Should the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, the remnant shall be saved:
28 Olkate soep vetih boeipa loh diklai ah tleka saii ni,” tila pang.
for [he] is bringing the matter to an end, and [cutting [it] short in righteousness; because] a cutting short of the matter will [the] Lord accomplish upon the earth.
29 Te dongah Isaiahloh a thui vanbangla caempuei Boeipa loh mamih kah tiingan he hlun pawt koinih Sodom bangla n'om uh vetih Gomorrah neh n'thuidoek uh ni.
And according as Esaias said before, Unless [the] Lord of hosts had left us a seed, we had been as Sodom, and made like even as Gomorrha.
30 Te phoeiah balae n'thui eh? Duengnah aka hnuktlak pawh namtomrhoek loh duengnaha rhawt. Tedae duengnah tangnah nen ni a dang.
What then shall we say? That [they of the] nations, who did not follow after righteousness, have attained righteousness, but [the] righteousness that is on the principle of faith.
31 Israel loh duengnah olkhueng te a hnuktlak dae olkhueng dongaha pai moenih.
But Israel, pursuing after a law of righteousness, has not attained to [that] law.
32 U kongah lae? Tangnah nen pawt tih khoboe lamkah bangla caehkoek lungto tea tongtah uh.
Wherefore? Because [it was] not on the principle of faith, but as of works. They have stumbled at the stumblingstone,
33 A daek vanbangla Zion ah caehkoek lungto neh thangkui lungpang ka khueh ke. Tedae amah te aka tangnah tah yahpok mahpawh.
according as it is written, Behold, I place in Zion a stone of stumbling and rock of offence: and he that believes on him shall not be ashamed.
