Galati 5

1 Mamih kah poenghalnah ham Khrih loh n'loeih sak dongah khak pai lamtah sal kah hnamkun te koep ngai boeh.

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

2 Kai, Paul loh nangmih taengah, “Yahvin na rhet uh pueng atah Khrih he nangmih ham a phu om mahpawh,” ka ti coeng he.

Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.

3 Te phoeiah yahvin aka rhet hlang boeih tah olkhueng te boeih vai ham laiba om tila koep ka laipai.

For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

4 Khrih lamkah naka nong tih olkhueng neh aka tang long tah lungvatnah na hlong coeng.

Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

5 Mamih loh duengnah dongkah ngaiuepnah te tangnah mueihla neh n'lamtawn uh.

For we through the Spirit 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.

For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.

7 Balh na yong uh tih oltak te ngaitang pawt ham unim nangmih aka mah.

Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?

8 Hloihhlamnah tah nangmih aka khue taeng lamkah moenih.

This persuasion [cometh] not of him that calleth you.

9 Tolrhu thamap ca vaidam hlom boeih a rhoi sak.

A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.

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 in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he 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.

And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased.

12 Nangmih aka palet rhoek tah hlueng pataeng ka ngaih.

I would they were even cut off which trouble you.

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.

For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only [use] not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

14 Olkhueng boeih he ol pakhat dongah soep coeng. Te khuiah, “Na imben te namah bangla lungnah,” a ti.

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, [even] in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

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 ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

16 Te phoeiah Mueihla neh pongpa uh lamtah pumsa hoehhamnah te hoem uh loengloeng boeh ka ti.

[This] I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil 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.

For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

18 Tedae Mueihla loh m'mawt atah olkhueng hmuiah na om uh pawh.

But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

19 Pumsa kah khoboe tah mingpha la om coeng. Te rhoek tah Cukhalnah, rhongingnah, omthenbawn,

Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these]; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

20 Mueibawknah, rhunsi khuehnah, thunkhanah, tohhaemnah, kohlopnah, thinsanah, koevoeinah, paekboenah, buhlaelh,

Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

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, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told [you] in time past, that they which do such things shall 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, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

23 muelhtuetnah, kuemsuemnah ni. Tebang te olkhueng loh a kingkalh om pawh.

Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

24 Tedae Jesuh Khrih kah rhoek long tah pumsa patangnah neh hoehhamnah te hmaih a tai coeng.

And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

25 Mueihla neh n'hing uh atah Mueihla lamloh m'vai uh van ni.

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

26 Hoemdawk la khat neh khat takloh neh, khat neh khat uethnet neh om uh boel sih.

Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
