1 Hmaunawnghanaw, Bawipa Jisuh Khrih a tho nahane hoi ama koe maimouh cungtalah kamkhueng nahane hoi ka kâkuenlah,
Now [I want to write to you] about the time when our Lord Jesus Christ will return and when [God] will gather us together to [where Jesus] is. My fellow believers, I urge you
2 Muitha lahoi thoseh, a lawk pâphonae lahoi thoseh, ca na patawn awh e lahoi thoseh, Bawipa e hnin teh yo a tho toe telah a dei awh eiteh, lungpuen tâsuenae tang na tawn awh hoeh nahanlah na dei pouh ngai awh.
that you think calmly [about any message] that [claims/says] that the Lord has [already] come again. Do not be shaken or alarmed/worried by any such message. [It does not matter] if [it is a message that someone claims God’s Spirit] revealed to him, or if [it is some other message that someone] has spoken, or whether [it is a message that someone claims] that I wrote in a letter.
3 Apini hai bangpatetlah hoi hai kâdum sak hanh awh. Hote hnin a pha hoehnahlan kâkapeknae hmaloe awm vaiteh, tamikahawihoehe rawknae capa teh a tâco han.
Do not allow anyone to deceive you in any way [with the result that you believe any such message]. 2 Thessalonians 2:3b-5 [The Lord] will not come [MTY] [immediately]. First, [many people] [PRS] will rebel [against God]. The result of their rebelling will be that [they will accept and obey] the man who will sin very greatly [against God].
4 Ahni teh Cathut hoi bawknae pueng hah a taran vaiteh, amahoima kârasang vaiteh, Cathut e bawkim dawk tahung vaiteh, amahoima Cathut doeh telah a kâpathang han.
He will be the [supreme] enemy [of God]. He will [proudly] exalt himself above everything that [people] consider to be some god and above everything that people worship. [As a result of wanting people to worship him], he will [even enter] God’s Temple and sit down [there to rule]. He will publicly proclaim that he himself is God! But [God] will [certainly] punish that man forever!
5 Nangmouh hoi rei ka o awh navah hote kongnaw yo ka dei awh e hah na pâkuem awh hoeh maw
(I am sure that you remember that I kept telling you these things while I was still with you [there in Thessalonica]./Do you not remember that I continued telling you these things while I was still with you [there in Thessalonica]?) [RHQ]
6 Ahni teh amae tue nah a tâco nahanelah, atuvah ka ngang e ao tie hai na panue awh.
You also know that there is something (OR, someone) that is preventing this man [from being revealed] {[from revealing himself]}. This man is being (held back/restrained) [now] for him to be revealed {that he reveal himself} at the time that [God has planned] [MTY].
7 Bangtelamaw tetpawiteh, kâlawklaipanae arulawk teh, atuvah a kâroe lahun toe. Hatei kangangkung takhoe lah ao hoehroukrak a ngang han.
[Although Satan] is already secretly causing [people] to reject [God’s] laws, (the one/God) who is preventing [this man from revealing himself] now [will continue to prevent him from doing that] until he/[God] removes him.
8 Takhoe lah ao torei teh kâlawklaipa e tami a kamnue han. Hote tami kahawihoehe hah Bawipa Jisuh ni amae muitha lawk lahoi raphoe vaiteh, a kumnae raeng hoi a takhoe han.
It is then that [God will allow] this man, who rejects [God’s] laws [completely], to be revealed {to reveal himself}. Then the Lord Jesus will destroy him, by simply commanding it [MTY]. Jesus, by his own glorious arrival, will cause him to become [completely] powerless.
9 Rawknae koe ka phat hane taminaw koevah hote tami kahawihoehe a thonae teh, Setan e thawtawknae lahoi dumyennae bahu, mitnoutnae, kângairu hno aphunphun hoi, kamsoumhoehe dumyennae aphunphun hoi a tho han.
But [before Jesus destroys him], Satan will make him very powerful. As a result, he [will do all kinds of supernatural] miracles and amazing things [DOU] that will seem as though [God has enabled him to do them].
10 Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh teh, rungngang lah o nahanelah, lawkkatang lungpataw hane ngai awh hoeh.
And by doing wicked [things], he will completely deceive those who will [certainly] (perish/go to hell). [He will deceive them] because they will have refused to love the true [message]. So they will not be saved {God will not save them}. (questioned)
11 Hatdawkvah, lawkkatang hah yuem laipalah, kamsoumhoehe hno dawk kahring e naw pueng teh,
So, God, by his power, will enable this man to easily deceive people, so that they will believe what [this man] falsely [claims/says that he is].
12 lawkkatang ka yuem hoeh niteh lanhoehnae dawk kaawmnaw hah yonphukhangsak nahane doeh.
The result will be that everyone will be [rightly] condemned {that [God] will [justly] condemn everyone} [to be punished] who did not believe the true [message], but who instead gladly chose [to be doing] what is wicked.
13 Hateiteh, Bawipa ni lungpataw e hmaunawnghanaw, nangmouh teh thoungsaknae, lawkkatang yuemnae lahoi rungngangnae dawk pha hanelah Cathut ni hmaloe hoiyah na rawi awh toung dawkvah, nangmouh kecu dawk kaimouh ni Cathut lungmanae pout laipalah ka pholen awh han.
[Our] fellow believers, whom our Lord [Jesus] loves, we thank God very frequently for you. It is appropriate/right for us to do that, because God chose you (from the beginning [MTY] [of creation/before the world existed]) in order that he might save [you] as a result of [your] believing the true [message] and as a result of [God’s] Spirit setting you apart [for God].
14 Hot patetlah hanelah kamthang kahawi lahoi nangmouh teh na kaw awh toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh teh, Bawipa Jisuh Khrih e bawilennae hmawngkhai nahanelah doeh.
[We thank God that] he chose you as a result of our [proclaiming] the message about Christ [to you], in order that you might (share in/have) some of the glory that our Lord Jesus Christ has.
15 Hatdawkvah hmaunawnghanaw, lawk lahoi hai thoseh, ca lahoi hai thoseh, kaimouh ni na cangkhai awh e lawkkatang dawk kacaklah kangdout awh nateh na lungpen awh.
So, [our fellow believers, continue to be firm concerning what you believe]; that is, continue believing the [true] teaching that we gave to you by our speaking to you and by our [writing] a letter [to you].
16 Maimanaw lungpataw niteh, a yungyoe lungpahawinae, lungmanae lahoi kahawi e ngaihawinae na ka poe e, maimae Pa Cathut hoi maimae Bawipa Jisuh Khrih ama roeroe ni, (aiōnios g166)
Our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God, our Father, loves us and encourages us and causes us to confidently expect [to receive] the eternal things that [he has promised to give to us] as a result of [Christ] acting kindly toward us in a way we did not deserve. (aiōnios g166)
17 nangmae lungthin a dam sak teh, lawk kahawi, hnokahawi pueng dawk nangmanaw hah na caksak awh naseh.
[We strongly pray that] God and Jesus together will encourage you! And we pray that they will cause you to continue doing and saying things that God considers to be good.
