Efesa 6
1 Naasenkhqi, Bawipa awh nami nu ingkaw nami pakhqi ak awi ce ngai uh; vetaw ak dyng na awm hy.
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is just.
2 “Nanu ingkaw napa kqihchah lah,” tinaak awi ve awipeek lammacyk ni.
Honour thy father and thy mother, which is the first commandment with a promise:
3 “Naham na leek nawh khawmdek awh na hqinglu sang kaw,” tinaak awitaak ak awm ni.
That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest be long lived upon earth.
4 Pakhqi, nami cakhqi kawsonaak hly kawi koeh sai law pe uh; ce anglakawhtaw Bawipa awh yyn a tawnnaak ingkaw cuk am kiknaak ing taai law sak lah uh.
And you, fathers, provoke not your children to anger; but bring them up in the discipline and correction of the Lord.
5 Tamnaakhqi, Khrih ak awi naming ngai peek amyihna, khawmdek awhkaw nami boeikhqi ak awi ce kawlung ciimnaak ing ngaih law pe unawh taw kqihnaak ing kqihchah lah uh.
Servants, be obedient to them that are your lords according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in the simplicity of your heart, as to Christ:
6 Thlanghqing kawzeelnaak hamna mik huh doengawh bi a sai kana, Khrih a tamnaa na nami awm amyihna, namik kawlung khuiawh kawng Khawsa ak kawngaih ce sai law uh.
Not serving to the eye, as it were pleasing men, but, as the servants of Christ doing the will of God from the heart,
7 Thlanghqing a bi ak bi amyihna ak poek kaana, Bawipa bi ak bi amyihna, namik kawlung tang tang ing bibi law pe uh,
With a good will serving, as to the Lord, and not to men.
8 kawtih tamnaa awm tamnaa am awm, thlang boeih ing bibi leek ami bi amyihna, Bawipa ing kutdo ce pe kaw, tice sim uhyk ti.
Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man shall do, the same shall he receive from the Lord, whether he be bond, or free.
9 Boeikhqi, nangmih ingawm nami tamnaakhqi ce cemyihna sai law lawt uh. Cekkhqi ingkaw nami Bawipa taw khawk khan na awm hy tice sim doena, tamnaakhqi ce koeh the koeh kha na uh, kawtih Khawsa ing u a haai awm am toek hy.
And you, masters, do the same things to them, forbearing threatenings, knowing that the Lord both of them and you is in heaven; and there is no respect of persons with him.
10 A hukhit awh, Bawipa a saithai thaawmnaak awh namik tha awm law sak lah uh.
Finally, brethren, be strengthened in the Lord, and in the might of his power.
11 Setan ang cainaak ce nami khamnaak thai aham Khawsa a phuqhaa ing thoeihcam qu lah uh.
Put you on the armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the deceits of the devil.
12 Ikawtih ningnih taw pumsa thisa qaal mi amning tuk qu unawh, ukkungkhqi, saithainaak ak takhqi, ve khawmdek than thaawmnaakkhqi ingkaw khan nakaw Setan myihla thaawmnaakkhqi mi ni ning tuk qu uh. (aiōn g165)
For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and power, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places. (aiōn g165)
13 Cedawngawh Khawsa ang thoeihcamnaak Phuqhaa ing thoeihcam qu lah uh, cawh ni khawnghi amak nep a pha law awh, ak cakna dyi thai kawm u tiksaw, ik-oeih boeih nami sai coeng dyna naming dyih hly thai hy.
Therefore take unto you the armour of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and to stand in all things perfect.
14 Cedawngawh awitak cawi zeennaak ing zeen qu unawh, dyngnaak kqangdan ing dah qu doena,
Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of justice,
15 qoepnaak awithang leek khawmyk ce myk doena a oepchoeh na awm lah uh.
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace:
16 Vemyihkhqi boeih boeih coengawh, cangnaak phuhqa ce pawm lah uh, ve ing ni setan a la ak alh hlap hlap ce namim thih hly thai hy.
In all things taking the shield of faith, wherewith you may be able to extinguish all the fiery darts of the most wicked one.
17 Hulnaak thi lumyk ce myk unawh, Khawsa a zawzi Myihlak zawzi ce pawm lah uh.
And take unto you the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit (which is the word of God).
18 A soep hoeiawh cykcahnaak thoehnaak soepkep ing Myihla awh cykcah lah uh. Ve ve nak kawk khuiawh taak doena, thlakciimkhqi boeih aham cykcah poe lah uh.
By all prayer and supplication praying at all times in the spirit; and in the same watching with all instance and supplication for all the saints:
19 Ityk awhawm kam kha ka awng hoeiawh awithang leek awihyp ve ak kqih kaana kak kqawnnaak thai aham, kai aham awm cykcah law lah uh,
And for me, that speech may be given me, that I may open my mouth with confidence, to make known the mystery of the gospel.
20 ve a dawngawh dyihthing na awm nyng saw thiqui ing khihna awm nyng. Kqihnaak a taak kaana kak kqawnnaak thai aham, cykcah law uh.
For which I am an ambassador in a chain, so that therein I may be bold to speak according as I ought.
21 Ka lungnaak ka naa, Bawipa a ypawm tyihzawih, Tukika ing ik-oeih soepkep ce nik kqawn law pek khqi bit kaw, cawhkaw iamyihna ka awm nawh ikaw ka sai tice sim kawm uk ti.
But that you also may know the things that concern me, and what I am doing, Tychicus, my dearest brother and faithful minister in the Lord, will make known to you all things:
22 Ikawmyihna ka mi awm tice sim unawh anih ing tha ani peeknaakkhqi thai aham anih ce tyi law kawng.
Whom I have sent to you for this same purpose, that you may know the things concerning us, and that he may comfort your hearts.
23 Pa Khawsa ingkaw Bawipa Jesu Khrih a ven awhkaw lungnaak ingkaw cangnaak ce koeinaakhqi venawh awm seh nyng.
Peace be to the brethren and charity with faith, from God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
24 Amak thi thai lungnaak ing ni Bawipa Jesu Khrih ak lungnaak khqi ak khanawh am qeennaak awm seh nyng.
Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in incorruption. Amen.
