1 Timote 1
1 Kai Pawl, na ka rungngangkung Cathut hoi, maimouh ni ngaihawi e Jisuh Khrih e kâpoelawk lahoi Jisuh Khrih e guncei lah kaawm e ni yuemnae lahoi ka ca katang lah kaawm e Timote koe ca na patawn.
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the appointment of God our Savior, and the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,
2 Na pa Cathut hoi maimae Jisuh Khrih koehoi lungmanae, pahrennae hoi lungmawngnae teh nang koe awm lawiseh.
to Timothy, my true son in the faith; grace, mercy, peace from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 Masidonia ram lah ka cei navah kai ni na hroecoe e patetlah Efisa kho la na o teh, alouklouk e cangkhainae cangkhai hoeh nahanelah,
As, on going into Macedonia, I besought you to remain in Ephesus, that you might charge some that they teach no other thing,
4 lairuipakong hoi ka pout thai hoeh e miphun tâconae hah banglah pouk awh hoeh nahanelah, cingthui haw. Hote hnonaw niteh yuemnae hlak kâounnae doeh a tâco sak.
nor give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which produce disputes rather than godly edification, which is in faith;
5 Hatei kâpoelawk ni ngainae teh, kathounge lungthin hoi thoseh, kathounge mahoima kâpanuenae hoi thoseh, kathounge yuemnae hoi thoseh, kâkuen e lungpatawnae hah doeh.
(Now the end of the commandment is love out of a pure heart, and out of a good conscience, and out of faith unfeigned:
6 Hote hno dawk hoi tami tangawn ni a roun awh teh, aphu kaawm hoeh e lawk deinae koe lah a kamlang awh toe.
which things some not having aimed at, have turned aside to idle disputation,
7 Bangpatetlae phung koe lah maw kacaklah ka o awh tie hai kâpanuek awh laipalah, kacangkhaikung saya lah o han a ngai awh bo aw.
desiring to be teachers of law, though understanding neither what they say nor of what they boldly affirm.
8 Kâlawk teh hnokahawi kasaknaw hanelah ta e nahoeh.
But we know that the law is good, if any one use it lawfully;
9 Kâlawklaipa hoi lawkkangaihoehnaw, cathutlaipa hoi tamikayonnaw, kathounghoehnaw hoi lawkkatang banglahai ka pouk hoeh e naw, manu kathetnaw hoi na pa kathetnaw,
knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and for scorners, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for man-slayers,
10 tami kathetnaw, kamsoumhoehe napui tongpa yonnae kasaknaw, tongpa reira yonnae kasaknaw, tami kaparawtnaw, laithoe kadeinaw, laithoe koe lah thoekâbonaw, kathounge cangkhainae katarannaw pueng hanelah doeh kâlawk teh ta pouh e lah ao. Hote kâlawk hah hmantang ka hno e taminaw teh, hote kâlawk ni hawinae a poe.
for lewd persons, for sodomites, for men-stealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and for whatever other thing is opposed to sound teaching,
11 Hottelah ka ti navah, Yawhawi Cathut e bawilen kamthang kahawi teh kai na poe toe.
according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which has been intrusted to me.
12 Kai hah thaonae hoi na kakawisakkung maimae Bawipa Khrih Jisuh e a lungmanae teh ka pholen. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahni ni a thaw tawk hane lah na rawi teh yuemkamcu lah na pouk toe.
And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me power, because he counted me faithful, and put me into the ministry;
13 Kai teh ahmaloe vah, kapathoekung, kadudamkung, ayâ karektapkung lah ka o eiteh, yuemhoehnae hoi panuek laipalah hoi ka tawksak e a tho dawkvah, lungmanae ka coenae doeh.
me, I say, who before was a reviler and a persecutor and an overbearing man. But I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief:
14 Maimae Bawipa e a lungmanae haiyah, Khrih Jisuh thung kaawm e yuemnae hoi lungpatawnae hoi cungtalah pouk e hlak a kuep toe.
and the grace of our Lord was very abundant with faith, and love which is in Christ Jesus.
15 Khrih Jisuh ni het talaivan a tho ngainae teh tamikayon rungngang hanlah a tho tie teh, yuemkamcu e hoi dâw hane roeroe lah a kamcu. Hote tamikayonnaw thung dawkvah kai teh kalenpounge lah ka o.
Assuredly true and worthy of all acceptation is this saying: that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.
16 Hateiteh, a yungyoe hringnae coe nahanlah ka yuem hane naw ni a dawn han kawi lah ao nahan, kalenpounge yonnae ka tawn e kai hah Jisuh Khrih ni lungsawnae hoi panguepnae na patue toe. (aiōnios g166)
But for this reason I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show all long-suffering, for an example to those who might afterward believe on him in order to life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
17 A yungyoe siangpahrang, kangning e, hmuthaihoehe, Cathut buet touh dueng teh barinae, bawilennae a yungyoe hoi a yungyoe awm lawiseh, Amen. (aiōn g165)
Now to the King of the ages, the incorruptible, invisible, only wise God, be honor and glory from age to age. Amen.) (aiōn g165)
18 Ka capa Timote, nang hanelah profet lahoi ka pâpho e naw hoi hete cingthuilawknaw hah nang koe na poe. Hethateh, yuemnae hoi kathounge panuenae lung na tawn teh kahawi e tarankâtuknae na tuk thai nahane doeh.
This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, in accordance with the preceding prophecies concerning you, that by them you may war the good warfare,
19 Tami tangawn ni yuemnae a takhoe awh dawkvah, yuemnae long a rawk teh rawknae koe a pha awh toe.
holding faith and a good conscience, which some having thrust from them, as it respects faith have made shipwreck; of whom are Hymenæus and Alexander,
20 Hotnaw thung dawkvah Himenaias hoi Alexander a bawk roi. Ahnimouh roi ni Cathut dudamnae lawk a dei roi hoeh nahanelah a kamtu roi nahan Setan kut dawk ka poe toe.
whom I have delivered to Satan, that they may learn not to revile.
