Jacob 3
1 Sopi deitahte, mitampi hi houbunga mihilin pang hih un, ajeh chu ahila pangho chunga thutanna chu gihjo cheh ding ahi.
Be not many [of you] teachers, my brethren, knowing that we shall receive heavier judgment.
2 Ahimongin, eiho jousen suhkhel tampi ineijiuve. Ajeh chu eihon ileiyu kithunun jou leuhen, eiho chamkim ihi dingu ahi chule thil danga jong kitim jou ihi dingu ahi.
For in many things we all stumble. If any stumbleth not in word, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also.
3 Eihon sakol lentah khu idei dei nauva ichesah theina dinguvin akamdal ikoipeh uvin ahi.
Now if we put the horses’ bridles into their mouths that they may obey us, we turn about their whole body also.
4 Chule Kong innei lenpitah jong chu ahehna neocha a chu atolpan achesah nomna lam lama aheiya, hui hat jongleh athunun ahi.
Behold, the ships also, though they are so great and are driven by rough winds, are yet turned about by a very small rudder, whither the impulse of the steersman willeth.
5 Hitobang maa chu lei hi thil neocha thil thupi tahtah ho seithei hiya ahi. Ahin mei-am neocha khat in gammang lentah akah lhah jengthei chu ahi.
So the tongue also is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how much wood is kindled by how small a fire!
6 Chule leigui hi mei kong tobang ahi. Hiche hi vannoi gitlouna dimset, natahsa pumpi suboh ahi. Hiche hin nahinkho pumpi meiya ahalthei, ajeh chu hiche hin meidil meikou chu akahsah ahi. (Geenna g1067)
And the tongue is a fire: the world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the wheel of nature, and is set on fire by hell. (Geenna g1067)
7 Miho hin ganhing jouse, vacha ho, a-op a kitholho chule ngaho avah ngoi theicheh-e,
For every kind of beasts and birds, of creeping things and things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed by mankind:
8 Hinlah koiman lei hi avah ngoi joupoi. Hiche hi kicholdo theilou le gilou, thina thei gu dimset ahi.
but the tongue can no man tame; [it is] a restless evil, [it is] full of deadly poison.
9 Khatvei kom le hiche hin IPakaiyu le Pachu avahchoiyin, chule khatvei kom le Pathen lima kisem chu agaosap jin ahi.
Therewith bless we the Lord and Father; and therewith curse we men, who are made after the likeness of God:
10 Chutia chu kamhom khat ma a kona chu phatthei bohna le gaosapna hung kisunglha khom jia ahi.
out of the same mouth cometh forth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
11 Twinah khat a kona chu twi thengsel le twi kha putdoh khom ngaiyem?
Doth the fountain send forth from the same opening sweet [water] and bitter?
12 Theichang phungin olive ga asodoh theija ahilouleh leng piguiyin theichang ga asodoh theiyem? Ahipoi, nangman twitheng chu chitwiya konin nathaldoh thei poi.
can a fig tree, my brethren, yield olives, or a vine figs? neither [can] salt water yield sweet.
13 Nangma nachih a chule Pathen lamlhah ho chu nahet a ahileh, jabolna lama hinkho naman chu aphotchenna hihen chule chihna a kona natohpha kineosahna hinsodoh hen.
Who is wise and understanding among you? let him show by his good life his works in meekness of wisdom.
14 Hinlah nanghon kithangthip tona naneiyuva chule nalunguva chang phatchomna hollea nahiuleh, thutah lekhuna a kiletsahna pum le jouvin thu seihih un.
But if ye have bitter jealousy and faction in your heart, glory not and lie not against the truth.
15 Ajeh chu kithangthip le chang phatchomna holna ho hi Pathen'a hungkon chihna chu ahipoi. Hiti hohi leiset thudol, lhagao thu hilou chule lhagao gilouva kon joh ahi.
This wisdom is not [a wisdom] that cometh down from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
16 Ajeh chu, kimit thipna le chang phatchomna umna mun a chu phatlouna jouse le kitomona namu ding ahi.
For where jealousy and faction are, there is confusion and every vile deed.
17 Hinlah, chunga kona chihna hi amasapen a atheng ahi. Chujongleh chamna ngaichatna, phat jousea lungneng, chule midang thua jong nung nom tina ahi. Khotona dimset le thilpha bolna asodoh in ahi. Koima lama langkaina aneipon chule lungdih pun aum jinge.
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without variance, without hypocrisy.
18 Chule kicham ding deiho dinga chamna muchi kitu ding chule chonphatna tohga chu amuding ahitai.
And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace for them that make peace.
