Galati 5
1 Mamih kah poenghalnah ham Khrih loh n'loeih sak dongah khak pai lamtah sal kah hnamkun te koep ngai boeh.
Stand firm therefore in the freedom with which Christ has made us free, and do not be burdened again with a yoke of slavery.
2 Kai, Paul loh nangmih taengah, “Yahvin na rhet uh pueng atah Khrih he nangmih ham a phu om mahpawh,” ka ti coeng he.
Listen! I, Paul, say to you that if you get circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.
3 Te phoeiah yahvin aka rhet hlang boeih tah olkhueng te boeih vai ham laiba om tila koep ka laipai.
Further, I testify again to every man who gets circumcised that he is obligated to keep the whole law.
4 Khrih lamkah naka nong tih olkhueng neh aka tang long tah lungvatnah na hlong coeng.
You who are ‘being justified’ by law have been alienated from the Christ; you have fallen away from the grace.
5 Mamih loh duengnah dongkah ngaiuepnah te tangnah mueihla neh n'lamtawn uh.
For we through the Spirit eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
6 Te dongah Jesuh Khrih ah yahvinrhet khaw tloe pawh, pumdul khaw pakhat pataeng a tloe moenih. Tedae tangnah tah lungnah dongah pongthoo ta.
Because in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love.
7 Balh na yong uh tih oltak te ngaitang pawt ham unim nangmih aka mah.
You were running well; who hindered you from obeying the truth?
8 Hloihhlamnah tah nangmih aka khue taeng lamkah moenih.
This persuasion is not from Him who calls you.
9 Tolrhu thamap ca vaidam hlom boeih a rhoi sak.
A little yeast leavens the whole batch of dough.
10 Kai loh Boeipa dongah nangmih kan pangtung thil te a tloe la poek uh boeh. Tedae nangmih aka hinghuen tah u khaw om mai saeh laitloeknah a phueih bitni.
I have confidence toward you in the Lord that you will not think differently; but he who troubles you will bear the penalty, whoever he may be.
11 Tedae ka manuca rhoek aw, yahvinrhetnah ka hoe pueng atah balae tih vawk n'hnaemtaek. Te dongah thangkui long tah thinglam dongkah ni a hmil.
But I, brothers, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that event the offense of the cross would have been removed.
12 Nangmih aka palet rhoek tah hlueng pataeng ka ngaih.
I do wish that those who are upsetting you would just remove themselves!
13 Te dongah manuca rhoek, poenghalnah khuila nangmih n'khue. Tedae rhoidoengnah he pumsa rhoidoengnah dawk ham moenih ta. Lungnah lamloh khat neh khat salbi uh.
Now you, brothers, have been called to freedom; only do not use that freedom as an opening for the flesh, but slave for one another through love.
14 Olkhueng boeih he ol pakhat dongah soep coeng. Te khuiah, “Na imben te namah bangla lungnah,” a ti.
For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, namely: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
15 Tedae khat neh khat na nget uh tih na yoop uh thae atah ana noek uh, khat khat neh na hlawp uh thae mahpawt nim.
But if you bite and tear at each other, beware lest you be consumed by one another!
16 Te phoeiah Mueihla neh pongpa uh lamtah pumsa hoehhamnah te hoem uh loengloeng boeh ka ti.
I say then: walk in the Spirit, and you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
17 Pumsa ngaih loh mueihla te a koek tih Mueihla loh pumsa te a koek. Te tah khat neh khat kingkalh uh. Te dongah na ngaih pawt te na saii uh.
Because the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh; they oppose each other; it follows that you may not do the things that you wish.
18 Tedae Mueihla loh m'mawt atah olkhueng hmuiah na om uh pawh.
However, if you are led by the Spirit you are not under law.
19 Pumsa kah khoboe tah mingpha la om coeng. Te rhoek tah Cukhalnah, rhongingnah, omthenbawn,
Now the works of the flesh are obvious, namely: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, licentiousness,
20 Mueibawknah, rhunsi khuehnah, thunkhanah, tohhaemnah, kohlopnah, thinsanah, koevoeinah, paekboenah, buhlaelh,
idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, fits of anger, selfish ambition, dissentions, factions,
21 uethnetnah, rhuihahnah, omngaihlawn he ni. Hekah phek la om. Tekah te thui tangtae bangla te bang kho aka boe rhoek loh Pathen kah ram pang mahpawh tila nangmih taengah ka thui.
envyings, murders, drinking bouts, orgies, and the like; about which I am warning you beforehand, as, in fact, I did before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
22 Tedae Mueihla kah a thaih tah lungnah, omngaihnah, rhoepnah, thinsennah, rhennah, boethennah, tangnah,
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 muelhtuetnah, kuemsuemnah ni. Tebang te olkhueng loh a kingkalh om pawh.
gentleness, self-control—against such things there is no law.
24 Tedae Jesuh Khrih kah rhoek long tah pumsa patangnah neh hoehhamnah te hmaih a tai coeng.
Further, those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
25 Mueihla neh n'hing uh atah Mueihla lamloh m'vai uh van ni.
Since we live by the Spirit, let us also conform to the Spirit.
26 Hoemdawk la khat neh khat takloh neh, khat neh khat uethnet neh om uh boel sih.
Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
