1 Piter 4
1 Khrih ing a pum awh a khuikha hawh dawngawh, cemyih kawlung ing nangmih thoeih ang cam qu lah uh, u awm a pum awh ak khuikha thlangkhqi taw thawlhnaak dawngawh ni.
For as much then as Christ has suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin;
2 Khawmdek awh thlanghqing ak kawngaih amak leek sai aham am hqing nawh Khawsak kawngaih sai aham ni a hqing hy.
That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
3 Nangmih taw ak kqym awh lukih thlangkhqi ing tyk unawh ami sai ik-oeih sainaak aham a tym haw na hawh uhyk ti – khawboe seetnaak, hy ngaihnaak, zuu quinaak, so a teenaak, zuukqui na awmnaak ingkaw tyih am leh ak cu myiqawl bawknaakkhqi ce sai uhyk ti.
For the time past of our life may suffice us to have worked the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revelings, parties, and abominable idolatries:
4 Cemyih ik-oeih awh nangmih am namik cawn dawngawh amik kawpoek na kyi nawh nangmih ce amak tyng nani sai khqi hy.
Wherein they think it strange that you run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:
5 Cehlai thlakthi ingkaw thlanghqing awi ak dengkung a venawh a ik-oeih saikhqi boeih ce phawng kawm uh.
Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.
6 Ve a dawngawh maw awithang leek ve thlakthikhqi venawh awm khypyi na a awm mah, cekkhqi awm thlangkhqi amyihna pumsa benawh awideng na a awm thainaak aham, cehlai Khawsa benawh taw myihla awi deng na awm kaw.
For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
7 Ik-oeih boeih a dytnaak a tym zoe hawh hy. Cedawngawh namik cykcah thainaak aham kawlung ak caih na ta unawh yhnaak ing awm lah uh.
But the end of all things is at hand: be you therefore sober, and watch to prayer.
8 Cekcoengawh, pynoet ingkaw pynoet ak dung soeih na lung qu na lah uh, kawtih lungnaak ing thawlhnaak khawzah ce sing hy.
And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.
9 Kawsonaak a taak kaana pynoet ingkaw pynoet do a dan qu lah uh.
Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
10 Thlang boeih ing kutdo a huhnaak amyihna thlak chang aham bibi qip aham awm hy, Khawsa qeennaak bi soepkep ce ypawm cana bi aham awm hy.
As every man has received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
11 U ingawm Khawsak awi ak kqawn awhtaw, Khawsak awi ak kqawnnaak amyihna a sai aham awm hy. U ingawm bi a bi awhtaw, Khawsa ing a peek thaawmnaak ing a bi aham awm hy, cawh ni ik-oeih soepkep awh Jesu Khrih ak caming Khawsa ce zoeksang na a awm hly. Anih a venawh boeimang saithainaak kumqui dy awm seh. Amen. (aiōn g165)
If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God gives: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Ka lungnaak ka pyikhqi, khuikha huhnaak ak tlo soeih a pha law awh, ik-oeih amak awm khawi nangmih a venawh pha law mai seiawm naming ngaih koeh kyi sak uh.
Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you:
13 Cehlai Khrih ak khuikhanaak ak bawnkung na nami awm dawngawh zeel lah uh, cawh ni amah a boeimangnaak ang dang law awh zeelnaak ing nami be hly hlai hy.
But rejoice, inasmuch as you are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, you may be glad also with exceeding joy.
14 Khrih ang ming awh thlang ing nangmih ce ani zyih khqi awhtaw, nami zoseen hy, boeimangnaak ingkaw Khawsa ang Myihla ce nangmih ak khanawh awm hy.
If you be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are you; for the spirit of glory and of God rests on you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
15 Nami khuikha awhtaw, cawhkaw nami khuikhanaak ce thlang himnaak awh, quuknaak awh, khawboe seet ik-oeih pynoet oet sainaak awh, am awhtaw nimah thlang ik-oeih awh ang qawlh qunaak awh na koeh awm seh.
But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men’s matters.
16 Cehlai, Khrih thlang na na awm dawngawh na khuikha awhtaw, koeh chak, ce ang ming na khuikha dawngawh Khawsa ce kyihcah lah.
Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
17 Ikawtih Khawsa ipkhui kaw awhkawng awideng naak kqannaak tym na awm hawh hy; awidengnaak ce ningnih a ven awhkawng kqawn na a awm awhtaw, Khawsa awithang leek amak cangnaak thlangkhqi ak khqoet aham ikawmyihna a awmnaak kaw ce?
For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
18 Cawh, Thlak dyng aham zani hulnaak ce a kyi awhtaw, Khawsa amak simkhqi ingkaw thlakthawlhkhqi ak khqoet aham ikawmyihna nu a awm naak hly hy?”
And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
19 Cedawngawh, Khawsa ngaihnaak amyihna ak khuikhakhqi ing Saikung ypawm a venawh a mimah ce nawn qu u seitaw ik-oeih leek ce sai poe u seh.
Why let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as to a faithful Creator.
