2 Thesalon 3
1 Ahnoungpoung lah, hmaunawnghanaw, Bawipa e lawkkatang teh, nangmouh koe a kâkahei teh Bawilennae a kamnue e patetlah hmuen tangkuem koehai a kamnue thai nahanelah,
In conclusion, friends, pray for us – pray that the Lord’s message may spread rapidly, and be received everywhere with honour, as it was among you;
2 ka kaisue niteh tami kahawihoehe naw kut dawk hoi ka hlout awh thai nahan kaimouh hanelah na ratoum pouh awh.
and that we may be preserved from wrong-headed and wicked people – for it is not everyone who believes in Christ.
3 Hatei, Bawipa teh yuemkamcu e lah ao. Nangmouh na caksak awh vaiteh kahawihoehe hno pueng dawk hoi hlout nahanelah na kabawp awh han.
But the Lord will not fail you. He will give you strength, and guard you from evil.
4 Kaimouh ni kâ na poe e patetlah nangmouh ni na tarawi awh. Hmalah haiyah bout na tarawi awh han doeh titeh Bawipa kâuep laihoi oupvoutnae ka tawn awh hoeh.
Yes, and the confidence that our union with the Lord enables us to place in you leads us to believe that you are doing, and will do, what we direct you.
5 Cathut lungpataw sak nahanelah thoseh, Khrih patetlah hring sak nahanelah thoseh, Bawipa ni nangmae lung hah hroecoe lawiseh.
May the Lord bring you to the love of God, and to the patience of the Christ.
6 Hmaunawnghanaw kaimouh koe na kamtu awh e patetlah tarawi laipalah hno kamsoumhoeh lah ka sak e hmaunawnghanaw pueng hah roun awh tie hah maimae Bawipa Jisuh Khrih min lahoi kâ na poe awh.
We beg you, friends, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, to avoid any follower who is living an ill-ordered life, which is not in agreement with the teaching that you received from us.
7 Bangkongtetpawiteh kaimouh ni ka tawksak e patetlah nangmouh ni bangtelamaw ka tawksak han tie teh na panue awh. Kaimouh ni hno kamsoumhoehlah ka sak awh hoeh.
For you know well that you ought to follow our example. When we were with you, our life was not ill-ordered,
8 Apie rawca hai ka cat rumram awh hoeh. Nangmouh thung dawk buet touh boehai na tarawk awh hoeh nahanlah patangpalai laihoi kâyawm awh teh karum khodai thaw ka tawk awh.
nor did we eat anyone’s bread without paying for it. Night and day, labouring and toiling, we used to work at our trades, so as not to be a burden on any of you.
9 Hottelah ka saknae teh hmu han ka ngai awh dawk nahoeh. Nangmanaw ni kamtu hanelah ka tawksak awh e doeh.
This was not because we had not a right to receive support, but our object was to give you a pattern for you to copy.
10 Bangkongtetpawiteh nangmouh hoi rei ka o navah ka pangak e teh rawca hai cat nahanh seh telah kâ na poe awh.
Indeed, when we were with you, the rule we laid down was – “Whoever does not choose to work will not get to eat.”
11 Hno kamsoumhoeh lah ka sak niteh banghai tawk laipalah, ma hoi kâkuen hoeh e dawk ka kambawng e tami tangawn na o awh tie ka thai awh.
We hear that there are among you people who are living ill-ordered lives, and who, instead of attending to their own business, are mere busybodies.
12 Hot patet e taminaw koe mae rawca, ca thai nahanelah lungmawng lahoi thaw na tawk thai nahan, Bawipa Jisuh Khrih ni kâ na poe e patetlah tha na poe awh,
All such people we beg, and implore, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, to attend quietly to their business, and earn their own living.
13 Hmaunawnghanaw hnokahawi na sak awh navah lungpoutnae tawn hanh awh.
You, friends, must not grow weary of doing what is right.
14 Hete ca lahoi lawk na thui e patetlah tami buetbuet touh ni tarawi hoehpawiteh, yeirai po nahanelah kâhuikokhai awh hanh.
If anyone disregards what we have said in this letter, take note of them and avoid their company, so that they may feel ashamed.
15 Hatei hote tami hah taran telah pouk a hanh awh. Hmaunawngha patetlah pouk awh, hroecoe awh.
Yet do not think of them as an enemy, but caution them as you would a brother or sister.
16 Roumnae Bawipa ama roeroe ni bangtelae hmuen koe na pha hai thoseh, nangmouh koe lungmawngnae na poe lawiseh. Bawipa teh nangmouh abuemlah koe awm lawiseh.
May the Lord, from whom all peace comes, himself give you his peace at all times and in all ways. May he be with you all.
17 Hete kutmannae ca heh kai Pawl roeroe ni ka kut hoi ka thut e doeh. Hathateh, ca kathut e pueng dawk e mitnout e lah ao. Kai ni hettelah ouk ka thut.
I, Paul, add this greeting in my own handwriting. It is my signature to every letter. This is how I write.
18 Maimae Bawipa Jisuh Khrih e lungmanae teh nangmouh pueng koe awm lawiseh. Amen.
May the blessing of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
