Rome 10
1 Kasopi deitah teho, kalunga kagelkhoh jingle Pathen'a kataona hi Israel mite huhhing'a aumna dingu hi ahi.
My friends, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for my people is for their salvation.
2 Amahon Pathen'a thanopna aneinau chu ipi ahi kahei, hinla hichu hetkhenna beiya kipehna nei ahiuve.
I can testify that they are zealous for the honor of God; but they are not guided by true insight,
3 Ajeh chu amahon Pathen in miho chu Ama a dinga athemchan thudol hi ahethei pouve. Pathen tohgon chu amahon asan nomlou jeh uvin, amaho lung ngaito jui'a Pathen themchanna mu ding chu alunggon'u ahi.
for, in their ignorance of the divine righteousness, and in their eagerness to set up a righteousness of their own, they refused to accept with submission the divine righteousness.
4 Ajehchu Christa chun Danthu kipehlona ajehchu anasuh bulhitsa ahitai. Hiche jal'a chu Ama tahsan jouse chu Pathen themchanna asodoh ahitai.
For Christ has brought Law to an end, so that righteousness may be obtained by everyone who believes in him.
5 Ajehchu Mose chun Danthua mikhat themchanna dinga athupehsa chu nit ding ahi, ati.
For Moses writes that, as for the righteousness which results from Law, those who practice it will find life through it.
6 Hinlah tahsanjal'a Pathen themchan theina ding chun, “Nangman nalung thima koi vana gakal ding ham (Christa chu vana kona agapuilhah ding kiseina ahi).
But the righteousness which results from faith finds expression in these words: ‘Do not say to yourself “Who will go up into heaven?”’ (which means to bring Christ down)
7 Chule koi mithiho lah a gakumsuh ding ham? (Christa chu hinsah kitna ding in) tihih un. (Abyssos g12)
‘or “Who will go down into the depths below?”’ (which means to bring Christ up from the dead). (Abyssos g12)
8 Tahbeh mong'in, hitin ati. Athupoh chu ahung nailheh-e; hichu nakam sungle nalung sunga aume.” Chule chuche thupeh chu keihon kalhangsap'u tahsan thudol chu ahi.
No, but what does it say? ‘The message is near you, on your lips and in your heart’ (which means ‘The message of faith’ which we proclaim).
9 Nangman nakam'a Yeshua chu Pakai ahi tia naphondoh-a chule Pathen in Ama chu athilah a kon'in akaithoutai ti nalungsunga natahsan tah-a ahileh huhhing'a um nahi ding ahitai.
For, if with your lips you acknowledge the truth of the message that JESUS IS LORD, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 Ajehchu nalung sunga natahsan chun Pathen themchanna chu nachan sah ahitai, chule na-phondoh chun nangma huhhing'a naumsah ahitai.
For with their hearts people believe and so attain to righteousness, while with their lips they make their profession of faith and so find salvation.
11 Pathen lekhabun eiseipeh-u dungjuiyin, “Koi hijongleh ama tahsan chan chu jachatna a chulou ding ahi” ati.
As the passage of scripture says – ‘No one who believes in him will have any cause for shame.’
12 Hiche thudol a hin Judah mite le chidang namdang ho thakhat ahitai. Amahon Pakai khat aneikhom'un, Ama kou jouse chu lungsetna bulhingset apei.
For no distinction is made between the Jew and the Greek, for all have the same Lord, and he is bountiful to all who invoke him.
13 Ajehchu koihileh Pakai min'a taochan chu huhhing'a umding ahi.
For everyone who invokes the name of the Lord will be saved.
14 Hinlah amahon Ama atahsanlou uleh a-huhhing theina dinga iti akou thei dingu ham? Chule Ama thudol anajah khah lou u ahileh iti ahin tahsan thei dingu ham? Chule koiham khat'in aseipeh louva ahileh amahon iti achungchang thu ajah thei dingu ham?
But how, it may be asked, are they to invoke one in whom they have not learned to believe? And how are they to believe in one whose words they have not heard? And how are they to hear his words unless someone proclaims him?
15 Chule akisol aum louhela ahileh, koipen gachea amaho thu agaseipeh dingu ham? Hichejeh a chu Pathen thubun, “Kipana Thupha poa vahle ho keng iti hoiya hoi hitam,” ati ahi.
And how is anyone to proclaim him unless they are sent as his messengers? As scripture says – ‘How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!’
16 Hinlah amichang cheh in Kipana Thupha chu anasang pouve, Ajehchu Isaiah Themgaovin, “Pakai kathupoh-u tahsan'a koi ham?” anati.
Still, it may be said, everyone did not give heed to the good news. No, for Isaiah asks – ‘Lord, who has believed our teaching?’
17 Hitichun, tahsan chu thujah a kon ahin, hichu Christa chung chang thujah a kon ahi.
And so we gather, faith is a result of teaching, and the teaching comes in the message of Christ.
18 Hinlah ken kadongin, “Israel miten thu hunglhung thu chu ajah tahbeh-u hinam?” Henge, ajanauve. “Thu hunglhung chu leiset kolkimvel'a akithe chansoh in, chule thuchu vannoi mun jousea alhungsoh-e.”
But I ask ‘Is it possible that people have never heard?’ No, indeed, for – ‘Their voices spread through all the earth, and their message to the ends of the world.’
19 Hinlah ken kadong'in, “Israel mipiten ahet khen mong'u hinam?” kati'e. Henge, aheuve, ajehchu Mose phatlai jeng jong chun Pathen in aseijin, “Keiman nangho namkhat hiloulai hojong miho thangset sah dinga ngolnaa chu kalunghansah ding ahi,” ati.
But again I ask ‘Did not the people of Israel understand?’ First there is Moses, who says – ‘I, the Lord, will stir you to rivalry with a nation which is no nation; against an undiscerning nation I will arouse your anger.’
20 Chule khonungin Isaiah chun, lung ngam tah in Pathen'a kon'in hitin aseiye, “Keiman kamite kamudoh dingho chu einahelou miho hiding ahiuve. Keima eidonlou beh ho chu keiman kakimudoh sah ding ahi,” ati.
And Isaiah says boldly – ‘I was found by those who were not seeking me; I made myself known to those who were not inquiring of me.’
21 “Hinlah, Israel chung chang thua, Pathen in aseiyin, nilhum keiyin keiman amaho chunga kakhut kajah in, hinla amaho seingai louleh engset hatte ahiuve,” ati.
But of the people of Israel he says – ‘All day long I have stretched out my hands to a people who disobey and contradict.’
