< Galati 2 >
1 Hahoi, kum hlaipali touh aloum hnukkhu, kai ni Titu hah ka kaw teh Barnabas hoi Jerusalem kho lah bout ka cei.
Then, fourteen years after, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas; taking Titus with me also.
2 Pâpho e patetlah hoi doeh ka cei teh, Jentelnaw koe ka dei e kamthang kahawi hah hatnavah ka dei pouh. Hottelah ka ti nah ka tawk tangcoung e thaw hoi hmalah bout ka tawk hane thaw hah ayawmyin lah o hoeh nahan kacue lah ka kâpouknaw hanelah doeh duem ka dei.
And I went up by revelation; and communicated to them the gospel which I proclaimed to the Gentiles; but privately to them who were of reputation; lest, perhaps, I should run, or had run in vain.
3 Hat navah, kai hoi rei kaawm e Jentel miphun Titu hah kuekluek vuensoma sak awh hoeh.
However, neither Titus, who was with me, though a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised,
4 Telah ka dei ngainae teh arulahoi ka tho niteh, hmaunawngha lah kakâsaknaw ao dawk doeh telah ka dei. Ahnimanaw ni kaimanaw san lah na o sak hane a ngai teh, Khrih Jisuh thung hoi hmu e maimae hloutnae hah tuet hane la doeh a tho awh.
even on account of the false brethren secretly introduced; (who came in privily to spy out our liberty, which we have by Jesus Christ, that they might bring us into bondage; )
5 Hatei lawkkatang kamthang kahawi nangmouh dawk ao thai nahanelah kaimouh ni, ahnimanaw ni a dei e lawk dawngdengca boehai ka thai pouh awh hoeh.
nor did we give place to them by submission, not even for an hour, that the truth of the gospel might remain with you.
6 Kacue lah ka kâpouk e taminaw pueng ni bangpatet e tami lah maw ao awh tie kai hoi kabet hoeh. Cathut ni tami e minhmai khen hoeh. Hote taminaw hoi ka kambawng teh hnokahawi buet touh hai kahmawt hoeh.
Besides, from them who were of reputation, I received nothing; (whatever they were formerly, is no matter to me: God respects not a man's appearance. For they who were of reputation, communicated nothing to me.)
7 Hatdawkvah, vuensom ka a naw hane kamthang kahawi teh Piter koe poe lah ao teh vuemsom ka a hoeh naw hane kamthang kahawi teh kai Pawl koe poe lah ao tie na panue awh.
But, on the contrary, perceiving that I was intrusted with the gospel of the uncircumcision, just as Peter was with that of the circumcision;
8 Bangkongtetpawiteh vuensom ka a e Piter koevah thaw poe e patetlah vuensom ka a hoeh e Jentelnaw koe kai Pawl heh guncei lah Cathut ni na hmoun e lah ao.
(for he who wrought effectually in Peter for the apostleship of the circumcision, also wrought effectually in me for the Gentiles):
9 Kâuepkhai e Jem, Piter hoi Jawhan tinaw hai kai ni ka coe e lungmanae a panue navah, ahnimanaw teh vuensom ka a naw koe cei hane hoi kaimouh teh Jentelnaw koe cei hanelah Barnabas hoi kai ni hnâ ka bokhai.
even James, and Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, having perceived the favor granted to me, gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we, indeed, should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcision;
10 Karoedengnaw maimouh ni pahnim hoeh nahanelah ahnimouh a ngainae buet touh ao. Hote thaw hah kai ni puenghoi tha ka patho.
requesting only, that we would remember the poor, which very thing I had also been diligent to do.
11 Hatei, Piter teh Antiok kho a pha navah toun hane kawi ao dawk a ma roeroe hah kai ni ka ngang.
Moreover, when Peter came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he was to be blamed.
12 Bangkongtetpawiteh Jem koehoi taminaw a pha hoehnahlan vah, Piter teh Jentelnaw hoi bu cungtalah rei a ca. Ahnimanaw a tho hnukkhu Piter ni vuensom ka a e taminaw a taki dawkvah hnuklah a kâhnawn teh alouklah ao.
For, before certain persons came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles; but when they were come, he withdrew, and separated himself, being afraid of them of the circumcision.
13 Hat torei teh ka yuem e Judahnaw pueng ahni hoi cungtalah tami kahawipoung patetlah a kâsak teh Barnabas ni hai ahnimae moi a out teh a hnukkhu a kâbang van toe.
And the other Jews also dissembled with them, insomuch that even Barnabas was carried away with their dissimulation.
14 Kamthang kahawi lawkkatang lam kalan dawn awh hoeh toe tie ka hmu navah, ahnimae a hmalah Piter hanelah, nang teh Judah tami doeh, hateiteh, Jentel tami patetlah na o, Judah tami lah na awmhoeh, hatdawkvah, bangtelamaw Jentelnaw hah Judah tami patetlah na o awh han telah ngangngang na ti pouh vaw telah ka ti pouh.
But when I saw that they did not walk uprightly, according to the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter, before them all--If you, being a Jew, live after the manner of the Gentiles, and not after the manner of the Jews, why do you compel the Gentiles to Judaize?
15 Maimouh teh coungnae lahoi Judah lah o awh teh, Jentel tamikayon lah awm awh hoeh.
We, who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,
16 Jisuh Khrih yuem e lahoi lannae dawk pha awh e hah yon kamnuek e Jentelnaw laipalah, takthai koe lah Judah tami lah kaawm e maimouh teh rek panue e patetlah, kâlawk dawk hoi lannae koe phat awh hoeh. Khrih Jisuh yuemnae lahoi doeh lannae dawk pha awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a pihai kâlawk tarawinae lahoi lannae dawk phat awh thai hoeh, Khrih yuemnae lahoi doeh pha thai awh.
knowing that man is not justified by works of law, but only through the faith of Jesus Christ; even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we may be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by works of law; for by works of law no flesh shall be justified.
17 Khrih lahoi lannae koe pha hanelah, maimanaw ni kâyawm nahlangva, yonnae bout kamnuek pawiteh Khrih teh yonnae kathokhaikung maw.
But if seeking to be justified by Christ, even we ourselves are found sinners, is Christ, then, the minister of sin? By no means.
18 Telah coung thai hoeh kai ni apasuek ka raphoe tangcoung e hah bout ka sak pawiteh, yon ka tawn e hah kaimouh ni ka kamnue sak.
For if I build again those things which I destroyed, I constitute myself a transgressor.
19 Hothloilah, Cathut koe lah ka hring thai nahanelah, kâlawk koe lah, kâlawk lahoi ka due toe.
Besides, I, through law, have died to law, that I might live to God.
20 Kai teh Khrih hoi thingpalam dawk rei ka due toe, hatei ka hring rah. Hattelah ka ti navah kai roeroe ka hring hoeh toe, Khrih teh kai dawk a hring, ka tak dawk a tu ka hringnae teh Cathut e Capa yuemnae lahoi doeh, Capa ni kai lung na pataw teh kai hanelah amahoima hringnae a kâpasoung.
I am crucified together with Christ. Nevertheless, I live; yet not longer I, but Christ lives in me: for the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith which is of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
21 Cathut e lungmanae ka pahnawt hoeh, kâlawk kâuepnae lahoi lannae koe phat thai pawiteh Khrih teh ayawmyin la doeh a due toe.
I do not set aside the favor of God. For if righteousness is through law, then certainly Christ has died in vain.
