< 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.
Forasmuch then as Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who 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 you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh for human desires, but for 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 enough time in the past has been spent doing the will of the unbelievers, and having walked in lewdness, lusts, drunkenness, orgies, carousings, 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.
They think it is strange that you do not run with them into the same flood of debauchery, blaspheming:
5 Cehlai thlakthi ingkaw thlanghqing awi ak dengkung a venawh a ik-oeih saikhqi boeih ce phawng kawm uh.
who will give account to him who is ready to judge the living 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 this reason also the Good News was preached to those who are now dead, that they might be judged according to man in the flesh, but might 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 near. Therefore be serious and disciplined in your prayers.
8 Cekcoengawh, pynoet ingkaw pynoet ak dung soeih na lung qu na lah uh, kawtih lungnaak ing thawlhnaak khawzah ce sing hy.
Above all things be earnest in your love among yourselves, for love covers a multitude of sins.
9 Kawsonaak a taak kaana pynoet ingkaw pynoet do a dan qu lah uh.
Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.
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 each has received a gift, employ it in serving one another, as good managers of the grace of God in its various forms.
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 anyone speaks, let it be as it were the very words of God. If anyone serves, let it be as of the strength which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever 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, do not be astonished at the fiery trial which has come upon you, to test you, as though a 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 because you are partakers of Christ's sufferings, rejoice; that at the revelation of his glory you also may rejoice 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 are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed; because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. On their part he is blasphemed, 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.
For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a meddler.
16 Cehlai, Khrih thlang na na awm dawngawh na khuikha awhtaw, koeh chak, ce ang ming na khuikha dawngawh Khawsa ce kyihcah lah.
But if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this name.
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 has come for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins first with us, what will happen to those who do not obey the Good News 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 is delivered with difficulty, where will 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.
Therefore let them also who suffer according to the will of God in doing good entrust their souls to him, as to a faithful Creator.
