Rom 12

1 Cedawngawh, koeinaa khqi, Khawsa qeennaak awh, ak hqing bulnaak, ak ciimcaih ingkaw Khawsa a ym kawi na nami pum ce pek aham ni thoeh khqi nyng; ve ve nami bawknaak awh ak awm hly qoe ni.

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, [which is] your reasonable service.

2 Ve khawmdek phung amyihna koeh awm unawh; Khawsa a ngaih kawi, ak leek, ym kawi ingkaw leeknaak ak soep ce ak ceetna zaaksimnaak nami taaknaak ham, namik kawlung ak thaina awmnaak ing chawt qu lah uh. (aiōn g165)

And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God. (aiōn g165)

3 Kai a venawh a ni peek am qeennaak ak caming nangmih boeih a venawh kanik kqawn peek khqi: Na mimah ingkaw na mimah ce ak sang soeih na koeh ngai qu uh, Khawsa ing a ni peek cangnaak ing a ting a tawk na na mimah ingkaw na mimah ce ngai qu uh.

For I say, through the grace that was given me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but so to think as to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to each man a measure of faith.

4 Ningmih ing ni pum awh a baai khawzah ni ta uhy, cehlai a mi bibinaak ce am myih boeih hy,

For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members have not the same office:

5 cemyih lawtna ningnih awm Khrih awh a baai khawzah na ak awm pum pynoet na ni awm uhy, a baaikhqi boeih ce pynoet ingkaw pynoet a koena awm qu qip boeih hy.

so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and severally members one of another.

6 Qeennaak a peeknaak amyihna kutdo ak chang chang ni ta unawh, awikqawnkungna ak awm ing cangnaak a taak khoek amyihna kqawn seh;

And having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us, whether prophecy, [let us prophesy] according to the proportion of our faith;

7 bibikung ing thahly doena bi bi seh, cawngpyikung ing ypawmna cawngpyi seh,

or ministry, [let us give ourselves] to our ministry; or he that teacheth, to his teaching;

8 ak sawikung ing ypawmna sawi seh; them ak pekung ing a hai kaana pe seh, awitlykkung ing ak leekna awitlyk seh, thlang ak qeenkung ing zeel doena qeen seh nyng.

or he that exhorteth, to his exhorting: he that giveth, [let him do it] with liberality; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

9 Lungnaak taw kawlung tang tang ing a awm aham awm hy. Seetnaak ce sawhna unawh, leeknaak ce ak cakna tu uh.

Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

10 Pynoet ingkaw pynoet cingnahqui lungnaak ing lung qu na uh.

In love of the brethren be tenderly affectioned one to another; in honour preferring one another;

11 Thaseetnaak qoe qoe koeh ta law uh, tha lo law unawh, Bawipa bi ce bi law uh.

in diligence not slothful; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;

12 Ngaih-unaak awh ce zeel uh, kyinaak nami huh awh kawdungnaak ing yh law unawh, cykcahnaak awh cak lah uh.

rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing stedfastly in prayer;

13 Thlakciimkhqi a voetnaak dawm unawh, khinkhqi ce ak nep na toek law uh.

communicating to the necessities of the saints; given to hospitality.

14 Nangmih anik thekhanaak thlangkhqi ce zoseennaak pe law uh; zoseennaak pe unawh awih che ing koeh zyi uh.

Bless them that persecute you; bless, and curse not.

15 Ak zeelkhqi ce zeel pyi unawh; kaw ak sekhqi ce kawseet pyi uh.

Rejoice with them that rejoice; weep with them that weep.

16 Pynoet ingkaw pynoet qoep ang qui cana awm uh. Koeh oek qu uh, thlang ak kaina ak awmkhqi mi pyi qu uh. Namah ingkaw namah koeh zoeksang qu.

Be of the same mind one toward another. Set not your mind on high things, but condescend to things that are lowly. Be not wise in your own conceits.

17 Thawlhnaak ce thawlhnaak ing koeh thung uh. Thlang boeih amik huh awh ak thym ce ngaihtaaknaak ing sai law uh.

Render to no man evil for evil. Take thought for things honourable in the sight of all men.

18 Ang coeng thai awhtaw nangmih ben awhkawng ang coengnaak thai khuina thlang mi qoep ang qui cana awm law uh.

If it be possible, as much as in you lieth, be at peace with all men.

19 Ka pyikhqi, nami phu koeh sui law uh; Khawsa ak kawsonaak ce ken law uh, “Kut thungnaak taw kai a koe ni, kai ing thung kawng nyng,” tinawh Bawipa ing tihy.

Avenge not yourselves, beloved, but give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance belongeth unto me; I will recompense, saith the Lord.

20 Ce anglakawh: Na qaal ce ak phoen a cawih awhtaw, buh pe; Tui a ngaih awhtaw, awk kawi ce pe. Vemyihna na sai awhtaw a lu awh maieh na tloeng peek ing myih kaw.”

But if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him to drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head.

21 Seetnaak ing koeh ni noeng seitaw, leeknaak ing seetnaak ce noeng lah.

Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
