< Rom 1 >
1 Jesuh Khrih kah sal, caeltueih la a khue tih Pathen kah olthangthen ham a coelh kai Paul,
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the Good News of God,
2 Cabu cim khuiah amah kah tonghma rhoek lamloh ol a khueh tangtae,
which he promised before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,
3 A capa kawng tah pumsa ah David kah a tiingan lamkah ha thoeng.
concerning his Son, who was born of the offspring of David according to the flesh,
4 Mamih kah Boeipa Jesuh Khrih tah, aka duek kah thohkoepnah lamloh cimcaihnah mueihla tarhing la thaomnah dongah Pathen capa la a hmoel coeng.
who was declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,
5 Anih dongah lungvatnah neh a ming yueng la namtom boeih taengah tangnah kah olngainah caeltueih te n'dang uh.
through whom we received grace and apostleship for obedience of faith among all the nations for his name’s sake;
6 Te rhoek lakli ah nangmih khaw Jesuh Khrih kah a khue la na om uh.
among whom you are also called to belong to Jesus Christ;
7 Rom ah aka om tih Pathen kah thintlo, hlangcim la a khue rhoek boeih, nangmih taengah mamih kah Pa Pathen neh Boeipa Jesuh Khrih lamkah ngaimongnah neh lungvatnah soep saeh.
to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8 Nangmih kah tangnah te Diklai boeih ah a doek uh dongah nangmih boeih ham Jesuh Khrih lamloh ka Pathen te lamhma la ka uem.
First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.
9 Pathen tah kai ham laipai la om. Amah te a capa kah olthangthen dongah ka mueihla neh tho ka thueng. Te vanbangla nangmih poekkoepnah te ka thangthuinah dongah phat ka khueh yoeyah.
For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the Good News of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you always in my prayers,
10 Pathen kah kongaih neh nangmih taengah pawk ham vai vai tah bet khui koinih kana ti.
requesting, if by any means now at last I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you.
11 Nangmih aka duel la mueihla kutdoe te nangmih taengah ka pak bet ham ni nangmih te hmuh ham ka rhingda.
For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to the end that you may be established;
12 Nangmih neh kai kah tangnah he nangmih taeng khat khat soah aka hloephloei la om.
that is, that I with you may be encouraged in you, each of us by the other’s faith, both yours and mine.
13 Manuca rhoek nangmih te mangvawt sak laeh ka ngaih moenih. Te ni nangmih taengla lo ham ka cai ninoe he. Tedae tahae hil he n'kang pueng. Te daengah ni nangmih taengah khaw, a tloe namtom rhoek taengah khaw a thaih pakhat la ka om van eh.
Now I don’t desire to have you unaware, brothers, that I often planned to come to you (and was hindered so far), that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the rest of the Gentiles.
14 Greek rhoek neh kholong rhoek taengah, aka cueih neh aka ang taengah, laiba ka khueh.
I am debtor both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to the wise and to the foolish.
15 Te dongah ni Rom kah nangmih taengah khaw phong ham ka yakvawt.
So as much as is in me, I am eager to preach the Good News to you also who are in Rome.
16 Olthangthen ham he ka yak pawh. Te tah Pathen kah thaomnah neh aka tangnah boeih ham tah lamhma ah Judah neh Greek ham khaw khangnah la om.
For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.
17 “Hlang dueng tah tangnah loh a hing sak ni,” tila a daek. Te dongah Pathen kah duengnah tah tangnah lamloh tangnah dongah pumphoe coeng.
For in it is revealed God’s righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, “But the righteous shall live by faith.”
18 Pathen kah kosi tah oltak boethae neh aka vueinan hlang rhoek kah boethae neh hlangrhong boeih soah vaan lamloh pumphoe coeng.
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,
19 Pathen tah amih taengah a phoe pah coeng dongah te nen te amih taengah mingpha la aka om Pathen te hmat saeh.
because that which is known of God is revealed in them, for God revealed it to them.
20 Diklai suentae lamkah a kutngo hmuhmueh te phaeng a tueng la n'yakming. A thaomnah neh Pathen a coengnah tah dungyan la om. Te dongah amih te basa tloel la om. (aïdios )
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. (aïdios )
21 Pathen te a ming uh dae Pathen bangla thangpom uh pawt tih uem uh pawh. Tedae a poeknah dongah moelh uh tih a thinko lungmong kotalh la hmuep coeng.
Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened.
22 Hlang cueih la om ham cai uh dae dap uh coeng.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 Pathen taengkah aka kuei thangpomnah te, aka hmawn thai hlang, vaa, rhamsa neh rhulcai kah mueimae, mueisa la a thovael uh.
and traded the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, four-footed animals, and creeping things.
24 Te dongah Pathen loh amih te amamih neh amamih a pum te yahbai ham amih kah thinko hoehhamnah dongah rhongingnah taengla a paek coeng.
Therefore God also gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves;
25 Amih loh Pathen kah oltak te laithae neh a thovael uh. Te dongah aka suen lakah a suentae te tho a thueng thil uh tih a bawk uh. Amah tah kumhal ah uemom la om pai. Amen (aiōn )
who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn )
26 Te dongah Pathen loh amih te rhaidaeng kah a huebawtnah dongla a voeih. Huta long khaw a pongthohnah aka omnoek te aka omnoek neh a kingkhalh la a thovael uh coeng.
For this reason, God gave them up to vile passions. For their women changed the natural function into that which is against nature.
27 Te banghui la tongpa rhoek long khaw huta neh pongthohnah aka omnoek te a hlahpham uh. Pakhat taengah a kocuknah neh a cahoeh uh dongah tongpa neh tongpa rhaidaeng la thoeng uh. Te dongah a tholhhiknah neh a kuek dantatnah te a yook uh.
Likewise also the men, leaving the natural function of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another, men doing what is inappropriate with men, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.
28 A mingnah khuiah Pathen te khaw om sak ham a soepsoei uh pawt vanbangla Pathen loh amih te lungbuei a lolhmaih la a khueh pah. Te dongah saii ham koi te khaw khuetnet uh pawh.
Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
29 Boethae, halangnah, phayoenah, halhkanah, boeih neh baetawt uh tih uethnetnah, ngawnnah, tohhaemnah, tuengkhuepnah, kothetnah, hlangthetkung khaw bae.
being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil habits, secret slanderers,
30 Hohmuh, Pathen aka thii nah, hnaephnapkung, buhueng aka pom, hlangoek, boethae aka phuengkung, a manu napa taengah aka lokhak,
backbiters, hateful to God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 lungmong rhoek, olpok rhoek, kotalh rhoek, muenying muenyang la om uh.
without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, unforgiving, unmerciful;
32 Te bang khosa rhoek te a duek uh tueng tila Pathen kah rhilam a ming uh lalah amamih bueng kah a saii bueng kolla te bang aka saii rhoek te khaw a rhoi uh.
who, knowing the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them.
