1 Corinthians 9
1 Am not I free? Am not I an apostle? Have not I seen Christ Jesus our Lord? Are not you my work in the Lord?
Keima midang ho tobanga ongthol hilouva kahim? Keima solchah hilouva kahim? I-Pakaiyu Yeshua chu keiman kamit tah a mulouva kahim? Keima natohnaa kona nangho Pakaiya hung hia nahi lou u ham?
2 And if unto others I be not an apostle, but yet to you I am. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.
Midangin solchah a eigel louva ahi jongleh nangho ding beh a kahi ahi. Keima hi Pakai solchah kahi aphotchenna nangho nahiuve.
3 My defence with them that do examine me is this.
Kathuneina chung chang thua eidongho kadonbutna hiche hi ahi.
4 Have not we power to eat and to drink?
Keiho na-in uva kachen uva chule na-anneh nauva an kaneh mona diu ipi umem?
5 Have we not power to carry about a woman, a sister, as well as the rest of the apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?
Solchah dangho tobanga, Pakai sopite ho le Peter in abol tobang uva Christian jinumei kakipui mona diu ipi umem?
6 Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to do this?
Ahilouleh Barnabas le keima bou hin kakihinso lhonna dinga na katoh lhon ngaiya ham?
7 Who serveth as a soldier at any time, at his own charges? Who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? Who feedeth the flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?
Ipi sepaiyin ama manchah ding akilotho ngaiyem? Lengpilei bola pang koipen'in alengpiga phabep jong nehtheina ding tha neilouva koi umem? Kelngoi hon chinga panga akelngoi phabep neh ding jong kiphal pehlou koi umem?
8 Speak I these things according to man? Or doth not the law also say these things?
Chule hiche hi mihem ngaidan kiphongdoh maimai ahipoi. Pathen Dan in jong hitia chu asei hilou ham?
9 For it is written in the law of Moses: Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?
Ajehchu Mose Dan in aseiye, “Bongchal'in chang achilpettah a chu anehthei louna dinga amuh nasomlou ding ahi” ati. Pathen in hiche thu aseipet'a chu bongchal ding bou agelkhoh a nagel ham?
10 Or doth he say this indeed for our sakes? For these things are written for our sakes: that he that plougheth, should plough in hope; and he that thrasheth, in hope to receive fruit.
Aman eiho koma tahbeh a thu aseina hilou ham? Henge, eiho dinga kijih a ahi, hitia chu alou khoiya panga le chang chil'a panga chun, anigel lhona chang ki-atna a chu chan anei lhon ding kinem'a ahi.
11 If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great matter if we reap your carnal things?
Kei hon Lhagao muchi nalah uva kahungtu u ahitah jeh chun, tahsalam dola neh le don thua aga kalo mona dingu umem?
12 If others be partakers of this power over you, why not we rather? Nevertheless, we have not used this power: but we bear all things, lest we should give any hindrance to the gospel of Christ.
Nangho henga thu seiphong ho nakitho piuva ahileh, amaho sanga chu keihon kithopina lenjo kamu diu hilou ham? Hinla keihon hiche chan ding chu kamangcha khapouve. Christa Kipana Thupha daltan'a aumlouna ding phot ahileh ipi hijongleh kapedoh jo uve.
13 Know you not, that they who work in the holy place, eat the things that are of the holy place; and they that serve the altar, partake with the altar?
Hou-in'a natong ho khun hou-insunga hung kitohdoh hoa kona neh akimu jiu ahi geldohlou nahiuvem? Chule maichama tohna neiho khun maichama kipedoh thiltohoa khu chan aneiyu ahi.
14 So also the Lord ordained that they who preach the gospel, should live by the gospel.
Hitobangma chu, Kipana Thupha lhangsam ho chu aphatchompi hoa kona kithopina amu dingu ahi.
15 But I have used none of these things. Neither have I written these things, that they should be so done unto me: for it is good for me to die, rather than that any man should make my glory void.
Ahijeng vang'in keiman hitiho thaneina hi khatcha kamang chapoi. Chule keiman hiche kajih hi tua pat'in keiman mangcha tange tia lunggon neiya kahipoi. Ahimongin, manbeiya Thu seiphongna a kakisonna kathuneina hi abei sangin, thi ding joh kanom'e.
16 For if I preach the gospel, it is no glory to me, for a necessity lieth upon me: for woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel.
Ahijeng vang'in Kipana Thupha seiphonga pan hi kiletsahpi thei ahipoi: Pathen in hichehi kabol dinga kacham louva eisolna ahi. Kipana Thupha seiphong louva kaum ding chu keima dinga iti tijat um hitam?
17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation is committed to me:
Keiman hiche hi ka kiham bolna a kona kabol ahileh, kalo ding lom muding kahi. Hinla keiman kilhen ding dan kahepoi, ajeh iham itileh Pathen in hiche guhthim ngansena hi eipeh ahije.
18 What is my reward then? That preaching the gospel, I may deliver the gospel without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
Ahileh ipi ham kalo doh ding chu? Keiman koima imacha ngehlouva Kipana Thupha lhangsapna chanpha kachan hi hiya ahi. Hiti ahijeh a hi keiman kachan dinga lom jong ngeh louva Kipana Thupha kaseiphong ahi.
19 For whereas I was free as to all, I made myself the servant of all, that I might gain the more.
Keima hi chamlhatna chang koima noiya umhilou kahi jeng vang in, mi tampi Christaa kapuilut theina dinga mijouse soh a kapan ahi.
20 And I became to the Jews, a Jew, that I might gain the Jews:
Keima Judah te toh kaum khom pet'in, Judah te chu Christa a kapuilut theina dingin, Judah te tobang'in danthu noiya hinkho kamangin ahi.
21 To them that are under the law, as if I were under the law, (whereas myself was not under the law, ) that I might gain them that were under the law. To them that were without the law, as if I were without the law, (whereas I was not without the law of God, but was in the law of Christ, ) that I might gain them that were without the law.
Keima chidang namdang ho, Judah mite chonna juilou hotoh ka umkhom tengleh, keima tah jong chuche dan'a chu hing talouva kaum hi keiman amaho chu Christa a kapuilut theina ding kati ahi. Ahin keima Pathen Danthu chu nahsahmoa kahipoi: Keiman Christa Danthu chu kajuiye.
22 To the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak. I became all things to all men, that I might save all.
Keima milhasam hoto kaum khomna a, keiman amaho lhahsamna chu chan kanei khompi ji e, ajeh chu keiman milhachom chu Christa a kapuilut nomin ahi. Henge, keiman mitin toh thakhat hina ding kahole, kajo chana phabep kahuhhing jou teina dinga kati ahi.
23 And I do all things for the gospel’s sake: that I may be made partaker thereof.
Keiman kabol chasun hi Kipana Thupha the chan sohna ding kati ahi chule aphattheina kahop doh nom ahi.
24 Know you not that they that run in the race, all run indeed, but one receiveth the prize? So run that you may obtain.
Kilhaitetna a khu mitin lhaijia ahi, hinla mi khat in bou kipaman asan ahi. Hiti chun, jona dingin lhaiyun.
25 And every one that striveth for the mastery, refraineth himself from all things: and they indeed that they may receive a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible one.
Golseh a jao ho khu akithem chuh nauva phatah a kithunun na nei ahiuve. Amaho chun akem mangthei kipaman lona a abolu ahin, hinla eihon akem mang theilou ilojoh u ahi.
26 I therefore so run, not as at an uncertainty: I so fight, not as one beating the air:
Hijeh a chu keima ka kalson nachan a hi doi neiya lhai kahin, ale chum'a kahipoi.
27 But I chastise my body, and bring it into subjection: lest perhaps, when I have preached to others, I myself should become a castaway.
Keiman golseh a lhaipa banga kabol ding dol kabol doh jou theina dinga katahsa hi kathunun ahi. Achuti louleh, midang koma thu kasei phong jouva keima tah alhinglou kahi khah ding ahi.
