1 Khawrin 6
1 Nangmih khuikah pakhat loh pakhat taengah dumlai na khueh uh te halang rhoek hmaiah laitloek ham na ngaingaih uh tih hlang cim rhoek hmaiah tah na ngaingaih uh pawh?
Dare any one of you, having a matter against another, prosecute his suit before the unjust, and not before the saints?
2 Hlangcim rhoek loh Diklai he lai a tloek uh ni tila na ming uh moenih a? Nangmih long khaw Diklai he lai na tloek atah dumlai rhemlem dongah a lolhmaih la na om uh a?
Do ye not then know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world is judged by you, are ye unworthy of [the] smallest judgments?
3 Mamih loh puencawn rhoek pataeng lai n'tloek pa ni tila na ming uh moenih a? Khosak rhamsak tah thui boel saeh a?
Do ye not know that we shall judge angels? and not then matters of this life?
4 Khosak rhamsak kah dumlai te na khueh uh tangloeng atah hlangboel khuikah a hnaelcoe rhoek te ngah na ngol sak uh aya?
If then ye have judgments as to things of this life, set those [to judge] who are little esteemed in the assembly.
5 Yahpohnah ham ni nangmih taengah ka thui. Nangmih ah om tangloeng pawh. Aka cueih long khaw a manuca laklo ah boelhkhoeh thai pawt nim?
I speak to you [to put you] to shame. Thus there is not a wise person among you, not even one, who shall be able to decide between his brethren!
6 Tedae manuca neh manuca loh aka tangnahmueh rhoek hmaiah khaw lai a thui.
But brother prosecutes his suit with brother, and that before unbelievers.
7 A taktak atah khat neh khat taengah dumlai na khueh uh he pungpung na hloonah la om coeng. Balae tih n'thae uh lah pawh. Balae tih m'hmil uh lah pawh.
Already indeed then it is altogether a fault in you that ye have suits between yourselves. Why do ye not rather suffer wrong? why are ye not rather defrauded?
8 Tedae nangmih loh manuca taengah na thae uh tih hmui na yoih uh coeng he.
But ye do wrong, and defraud, and this [your] brethren.
9 Halang rhoek loh Pathen kah ram pang mahpawh tila na ming uh moenih a? Nangmih te n'rhaithi uh boel saeh. Hlanghalh rhoek long khaw, mueibawk rhoek long khaw, samphaih rhoek long khaw, himbai hnal long khaw, uicuk long khaw,
Do ye not know that unrighteous [persons] shall not inherit [the] kingdom of God? Do not err: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor those who make women of themselves, nor who abuse themselves with men,
10 hlanghuen rhoek long khaw, halhka khaw, yumi rhoek long khaw, olbaikung rhoek long khaw, kutveet long khaw Pathen kah ram pang mahpawh.
nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor abusive persons, nor [the] rapacious, shall inherit [the] kingdom of God.
11 Te nen te rhakthuem la na om uh dae n'silh tih n'ciim coeng. Te dongah Boeipa Jesuh Khrih ming neh mamih kah Pathen kah mueihla lamlong khaw n'tang sak coeng.
And these things were some of you; but ye have been washed, but ye have been sanctified, but ye have been justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
12 A cungkuem he kai taengah m'paek dae boeih a rhoei bal moenih. A cungkuem te kai teangah m'paek dae kai he pakhat long khaw m'buem mahpawh.
All things are lawful to me, but all things do not profit; all things are lawful to me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
13 Caak he bungpuei ham ni. Bungpuei te khaw cakok ham ni. Tedae Pathen loh te rhoi te rhenten a phae ni. Te dongah pumrho te Cukhalnah ham moenih. Boeipa ham ni, Boeipa khaw pum ham ni.
Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats; but God will bring to nothing both it and them: but the body [is] not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.
14 Te dongah Pathen loh Boeipa a thoh vanbangla mamih khaw a thaomnah dongah pacuet uh ni.
And God has both raised up the Lord, and will raise us up from among [the dead] by his power.
15 Nangmih kah pum tah Khrih kah pumrho ni tila na ming uh moenih a? Te koinih Khrih kah pumrho te loh tih hlanghalh kah pumrho la ka saii aya? Te tlam te om mahpawh.
Do ye not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then, taking the members of the Christ, make [them] members of a harlot? Far be the thought.
16 Hlanghalh taengla aka kap tah pum khat la om tila na ming uh moenih a? Panit te pumsa khat la om ni a ti coeng ta.
Do ye not know that he [that is] joined to the harlot is one body? for the two, he says, shall be one flesh.
17 Tedae Boeipa neh aka kap uh tah mueihla pakhat la om ta.
But he that [is] joined to the Lord is one Spirit.
18 Cukhalnah te rhaelrham takuh. Hlang loh a saii sarhui tholhsainah boeih te pum dongah pong phoe ta. Tedae aka cukhalh loh amah pum ni a tholh sak.
Flee fornication. Every sin which a man may practise is without the body, but he that commits fornication sins against his own body.
19 Nangmih pum tah bawkim ni, na khuikah Cim Mueihla a om te na ming uh mahnim? Te te Pathen taeng lamkah na dang uh dongah namah hut la na om uh moenih.
Do ye not know that your body is [the] temple of the Holy Spirit which [is] in you, which ye have of God; and ye are not your own?
20 A phu la n'lai uh dongah na pum dongah Pathen te thangpom uh.
for ye have been bought with a price: glorify now then God in your body.
