1 Peter 4
1 Te dongah pumsa ah Khrih patang coeng tih nangmih khaw poeknah neh amah la pumcum uh laeh. Pumsa ah aka patang long tah tholhnah te a moeng coeng.
Since, then, Christ suffered in body, arm yourselves with the same resolve as he; for he who has suffered in body has ceased to sin,
2 Te dongah hoehhamnah kah hlang la om voel pawt tih pumsa ah hing tue aka coih te Pathen kongaih la om saeh.
and so will live the rest of his earthly life guided, not by human passions, but by the will of God.
3 Khum tangtae a tue loh namtom rhoek kah kongaih la a thoeng te rhoeh coeng. Omthenbawn, cukhalhnah, yusoknah, omngaihlawnnah, yubueihnah neh aka lolh mueibawknah dongah ana pongpa uh.
Surely in the past you have spent time enough living as the Gentiles delight to live. For your path has lain among scenes of debauchery, licentiousness, drunkenness, revelry, hard-drinking, and profane idolatry.
4 Te nen te a suel uh dongah na capit voel pawt tih tuihnum kah cungpoehnah ah amah la n'soehsal uh.
And, because you do not run to the same extremes of profligacy as others, they are astonished, and malign you.
5 Amih loh hlang duek neh hlang hing laitloek ham sikim la aka om taengah olka a thuung uh pueng ni.
But they will have to answer for their conduct to him who is ready to judge both the living and the dead.
6 He ham ni aka duek taengah khaw a phong pah. Te nen ni pumsa ah hlang bangla hing ngawn cakhaw mueihla ah Pathen bangla lai a tloek uh eh.
For that was why the good news was told to the dead also – that, after they have been judged in the body, as people are judged, they might live in the spirit, as God lives.
7 Tedae a cungkuem kah a bawtnah tah yoei coeng. Te dongah muet uh lamtah thangthuinah neh cue uh.
But the end of all things is near. Therefore exercise self-restraint and be calm, so that you may be able to pray.
8 Lungnah loh tholh khaw rhaengpuei la a muekdah dongah a cungkuem lakah lungnah te nangmih taengah tlal khueh uh.
Above all things, let your love for one another be earnest, for “Love throws a veil over countless sins.”
9 Kohuetnah om kolla khat neh khat taengah moeihoeih la om uh.
Never grudge hospitality to one another.
10 Kutdoe rhip a dang vanbangla Pathen kah lungvatnah cungkuem dongah hnokhoem then la khat neh khat taengah thotat uh.
Whatever the gift that each has received, use it in the service of others, as good stewards of the varied bounty of God.
11 Khat khat long khaw a thui atah Pathen kah olrhuh bangla thui saeh. Khat khat long ni a thohtat atah Pathen loh thadueng a koei pah bangla thotat saeh. Te daengah ni a cungkuem dongah Jesuh Khrih lamloh Pathen te a thangpom eh. Thangpomnah neh thaomnah tah kumhal kah kumhal due amah taengah om. Amen. (aiōn g165)
When anyone speaks, they should speak as one who is delivering the oracles of God. When anyone is endeavouring to serve others, they should do so in reliance on the strength which God supplies; so that in everything God may be honoured through Jesus Christ – to whom be ascribed all honour and might for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Thintlo rhoek, nangmih taengkah noemcainah hmaitak dongah suel uh boeh. Nangmih ham aka om te nangmih taengah yinlai bangla ha thoeng coeng.
Dear friends, do not be astonished at the trial of fire that you are passing through, to test you, as though something strange were happening to you.
13 Tedae Khrih kah patangnah dongah na boek uh dongah omngaih uh. Te daengah ni a thangpomnah dongkah pumphoenah dongah khaw hlampan la na omngaih uh eh.
No, the more you share the sufferings of the Christ, the more may you rejoice, that, when the time comes for the manifestation of his glory, you may rejoice and exult.
14 Khrih ming neh n'thuithet atah na yoethen uh. Thangpomnah neh Pathen kah Mueihla tah nangmih soah duem coeng.
If you are insulted for bearing the name of Christ, count yourselves blessed; because the divine glory and the Spirit of God are resting on you.
15 Nangmih ah khat khat loh hlang aka ngawn, hlanghuen, laihmu, calawhcakam hlang bangla patang boel saeh.
I need hardly say that no one among you must suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or a criminal, or for interfering in matters which do not concern Christians.
16 Tedae Khrihca bangla a patang atah yak boel saeh lamtah a ming neh Pathen te thangpom saeh.
But, if someone suffers as a Christian, they should not be ashamed of it; they should bring honour to God even though they bear that name.
17 Pathen im lamkah laitloeknah tue tah a tong coeng. Tedae mamih lamkah lamhma koinih Pathen kah olthangthen aka aek rhoek kah a palthamnah tah metlam nim te?
For the time has come for judgment to begin with the house of God; and, if it begins with us, what will be the end of those who reject God’s good news?
18 Aka dueng long pataeng hnaeng hnaeng a khang atah baltalh neh hlangtholh tah melam a phoe eh?
If “a good person is saved only with difficulty, what will become of the godless and the sinful?”
19 Te dongah Pathen kah kongaih la aka patang rhoek long ngawn tah bibi then neh amamih kah hinglu te Suenkung uepom taengah nawn saeh.
Therefore, I say, let those who suffer, because God wills it so, commit their lives into the hands of a faithful Creator, and persevere in doing right.
