< Rom 1 >
1 Kai Pawl, Jisuh Khrih e a san, Cathut ni a kamthang kahawi pâpho hanlah, na rawi teh na kaw e, guncei lah kaawm e ni ca na patawn awh.
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, a called Apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,
2 Hote kamthang kahawi teh Cathut ni ahmaloe hoi profetnaw koe na kam pouh tangcoung e hoi, Cakathoung dawk a thut tangcoung lah kaawm e,
(which he formerly announced by his prophets, in the Sacred Writings, )
3 Cathut Capa Jisuh Khrih e kong hah doeh. Tami koe lahoi teh Devit catoun lah ao.
concerning his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord; descended from David, as to his flesh,
4 Thoungnae Muitha bahu lahoi duenae koehoi boutthawnae, Cathut capa lah a onae, heh a kamnue sak.
and constituted the Son of God, with power, as to his holy spiritual nature, after his resurrection from the dead:
5 Hote Bawipa min lahoi Jentelnaw pueng ni yuemnae hoi Cathut lawkngainae koe pha sak nahanelah, guncei lah coungnae coe awh.
by whom we have received favor, even the apostolic office, for the obedience of faith among all nations, for his name's sake:
6 Nangmouh hai hote Jentel miphun lah na o awh teh, Jisuh Khrih hoi na kâkuet awh nahanelah, kaw e lah na o awh.
among whom are you, also, called of Jesus Christ:
7 Hottelah Cathut ni a pahren teh tami kathoung lah a kaw e Rom kho kaawm e naw pueng koe, hete ca heh ka thut. Maimae Pa Cathut hoi, Bawipa Jisuh Khrih koehoi lungmanae hoi lungmawngnae teh nangmouh koe awm lawiseh.
To all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called saints; favor be to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8 Nangmae yuemnae teh talaivan pueng a kamthang dawkvah, nangmouh hanelah kaie Cathut koe Jisuh Khrih lahoi hmaloe ka lunghawi.
First of all, I thank my God, through the Lord Jesus Christ, for you all, that your faith is published in all the world.
9 Ouk ka ratoum navah nangmouh pou na pouk awh teh, Cathut ngainae awm pawiteh, hnin hnin touh hnin teh bangte lahoi ne nangmouh koe ka pha thai nahane lam a aw nahan ouk ka ratoum.
For God is my witness, whom I serve sincerely in the gospel of his Son, that continually I make mention of you;
10 Capa e kamthang kahawi ka pâpho teh, ka muitha lahoi ka bawk e Cathut hah kai kapanuekkhaikung lah ao.
always in my prayers, requesting that, by some means, now at length, I may have a prosperous journey, (God willing, ) to come to you.
11 Bangkongmaw nangmouh kâhmo hanlah ka ngai tetpawiteh, nangmouh hah muitha poehno buetbuet touh rei teh, na cak awh nahanelah thapoe hanelah ka ngai poung dawk doeh.
For I greatly desire to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, that you may be established;
12 Hottelah ka ti navah kaie yuemnae ni nangmouh tha na poe teh, nangmae yuemnae ni kai tha na poe teh, yuemnae lahoi buet touh hoi buet touh lungkâpatawnae coe awh nahane doeh.
and that I may be comforted, together with you, through the mutual faith both of you and me.
13 Hmaunawnghanaw, Jentelnaw koe ka cei navah hawinae ka hmu e patetlah nangmouh koe hai hmu hanlah, tho hane atuhoitu ka kâcai ei, na katarawkkung ao dawk atu sittouh ka tho thai hoeh.
Now, brethren, I would not have you ignorant, that I often purposed to come to you, thought I have, as yet been hindered; that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the other Gentiles.
14 Kai teh Griknaw, tamipathunaw, a lungkaangnaw, hoi miphun pueng koe laiba ka tawn e lah ka o.
I am a debtor, both to the Greeks and to the barbarians; both to the wise and to the unwise.
15 Hatdawkvah, Rom kho kaawm e nangmouh koe a coung thai totouh kamthang kahawi pâpho hanlah coungkacoe lah ka o.
Therefore, I am willing, according to my ability, to declare the glad tidings, even to you who are in Rome.
16 Kai teh Khrih e kamthang kahawi kecu dawk kayanae ka tawn hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hote kamthang kahawi teh ahmaloe vah Judahnaw, hahoi Griknaw koe pâpho lah o teh, ka yuem e tami pueng ka rungngangnae Cathut e bahu doeh.
For I am not ashamed of the gospel; because it is the power of God for salvation, to every one who believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
17 Cakathoung ni vah, tamikalan teh yuemnae lahoi a hring han ati e patetlah, yuemnae dawk hoi e Cathut lannae teh akung hoi a hmo ditouh hete kamthang kahawi dawk a kamnue.
For in it the justification of God by faith is revealed, in order to faith; as it is written, "Now the just by faith, shall live."
18 Lawkkatang ka ngang e taminaw, Cathut laipalah khosaknae naw hoi kamsoumhoehe khosaknae naw pueng dawk kalvan hoi Cathut lungkhueknae teh a pha.
Besides the wrath of God is revealed from heaven, against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth by unrighteousness.
19 Bangkongtetpawiteh, panue kawi e Cathut e a kong naw teh ahnimanaw koe a kamnue toe. Cathut ni ahnimouh koe a pâpho toe.
Because that which may be known of God is manifest among them, for God has manifested it to them:
20 Bangtelah hoi maw a pâpho tetpawiteh, talaivan pek a kamtawng hoi Cathut e hmuthaihoehe a yungyoe bawilennae, a Cathutnae teh, a sak e hnonaw dawk hoi kamcengcalah panue thai kawi lah ao dawkvah, ahnimouh ni kâtang thai mahoeh. (aïdios )
(for his invisible attributes, even his eternal power and divinity, since the creation of the world, are very evident; being known by his works: ) so that they are inexcusable. (aïdios )
21 Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh ni Cathut hah a panue awh nahlangva vah, Cathut pholen hane totouh pholen a hoeh. A lungmanae hai noutna a hoeh. Ayawmyinlah pouknae hoi lungthin pathunae koe a pha awh.
Because, though they knew God, they did not glorify him as God, neither gave him thanks; but became foolish by their own reasonings, and their inconsiderate heart was darkened.
22 Ahnimouh teh amamouh hoi amamouh a lungkaang e patetlah a kâsak awh nahlangva vah, ka pathu e lah ao awh.
Professing to be wise men, they became fools:
23 Kamko thai hoeh e Cathut e a bawilennae hah a pahnawt awh teh, kamko thai e, tami, tava naw, a khok pali touh e moithangnaw, vonpui hoi kâva e moithangnaw hoi kâvan e meikaphawknaw hah Cathut e yueng lah a ta awh.
for they changed the glory of the immortal God into the likeness of an image of mortal man, of fowls, or four-footed beasts, and of reptiles.
24 Hatdawkvah, ahnimanaw teh buet touh hoi buet touh a kâbari awh hoeh nahan, amamae lungngai e patetlah khinnae kut dawk Cathut ni a poe awh.
Therefore, also, God, through the lusts of their own hearts, delivered them over to uncleanness, to dishonor their own bodies among themselves.
25 Ahnimouh ni lawkkatang Cathut yueng lah a kaphawk e cathut hah a tâ awh teh, kasakkung Cathut a pahnawt awh. A sak e hno hah a bawk awh. Hote Bawipa teh a yungyoe yawhawinae awmseh. Amen. (aiōn )
Who changed the truth concerning God, into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature, rather than the Creator, who is forever blessed. Amen. (aiōn )
26 Hottelah a sak awh dawkvah, ahnimanaw teh kayanae kut dawk Cathut ni a poe toe. Bangtelamaw tetpawiteh, napuinaw ni, tongpa hoi onae heh a pahnawt awh teh, napui reira ao awh.
For this, God delivered them over to shameful passions; for even their females changed the natural use unto what is contrary to nature.
27 Hot patetvanlah, tongpanaw ni hai napui hoi onae phung a pahnawt awh teh, buet touh hoi buet touh cuknae hmai patetlah a kak awh teh, kayatho poung e tongpa reira a hmawng awh teh, amamae a yon awh e patetlah lawkcengnae teh a kâhmo awh.
In like manner, also, the males, leaving the natural use of the female, burned in their lust toward one another, males with males, working out that which is shameful, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was due.
28 Hothloilah ahnimouh ni Cathut panue han a ngai awh hoeh dawkvah, hno kahawihoeh a sak awh nahanelah, Cathut ni hounlounnae kut dawk ahnimouh teh a poe toe.
And as they did not like to acknowledge God, God delivered them over to an undiscerning mind, to work those things which are not suitable;
29 Ahnimanaw teh hno kahawihoeh saknae a phunphun, kamsoumhoehe napui tongpa yonnae, mawikainae, hounlounnae, hounroenae,
being filled with all injustice, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, bad habits, whisperers,
30 Utsinnae, tami theinae, kayanae, dumyennae, tami hmungaihoehnae, mathengpaanae, kâoupkâpawinae, thoum kawi hoeh e thoumnae, manu na pa lawkngaihoehnae, kâhruetcuethoehnae,
revilers, haters of God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil pleasure, disobedient to parents,
31 thaipanuekhoehnae, lawkkamcakhoehnae, lungkâpatawhoehnae, ngaithoum thaihoehnae, pahrenhoehnae lungthin ka tawn e tami lah ao awh.
impudent, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful.
32 Hottelah kaawm e tami teh a due hane roeroe lah ao telah Cathut ni ati e heh a panue awh nahlangva, amamouh ni a sak dueng laipalah hottelah ka sak e taminaw koehai a lungkuep awh.
Some, who clearly understand the law of God, (that they who practice such things are worthy of death, ) not only do these things, but even commend those who practice them.
