1 Peter 2
1 Wherefore laying away all malice, and all guile, and dissimulations, and envies, and all detractions,
Tahmenhaih hoiah kakoi Sithaw to na pataengh o boeh pongah, sethaihnawk, alinghaihnawk, angsakcophaih,
2 As newborn babes, desire the rational milk without guile, that thereby you may grow unto salvation:
uthaih hoi loksae apaehhaihnawk to takhoe o boih ah loe, tapen kangtha nawkta baktih toengah,
3 If so be you have tasted that the Lord is sweet.
kaciim tahnutui Sithaw lok to koeh oh, to tiah ni na qoeng o thai tih.
4 Unto whom coming, as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen and made honourable by God:
Kaminawk mah pahnawt o sut, toe Sithaw mah qoih ih atho kaom, kahing thlung khaeah nang zoh o pongah,
5 Be you also as living stones built up, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
nangcae doeh Muithla qoeng hanah im sakhaih kahing thlung baktih, ciimcai qaima baktiah na oh o boeh moe, Jesu Kri rang hoiah Sithaw mah talawk ih muithla angbawnhaih hmuen tathlang kami ah na oh o toeng boeh.
6 Wherefore it is said in the scripture: Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious. And he that shall believe in him, shall not be confounded.
To pongah Cabu thungah doeh, Khenah, atho kaom qoih ih im takii ih thlung to Zion mae nuiah ka suek: anih tang kami loe azathaih tong mak ai, tiah oh.
7 To you therefore that believe, he is honour: but to them that believe not, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is made the head of the corner:
To pongah tanghaih tawn nangcae hanah, anih loe kating ai atho oh: toe tang ai kaminawk hanah loe atho om ai, Im sah kaminawk mah pahnawt o sut ih thlung loe, kalen koek im takii ih thlung ah oh boeh,
8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of scandal, to them who stumble at the word, neither do believe, whereunto also they are set.
lok tahngai ai kaminawk hanah loe amthaekhaih thlung hoi amtimhaih lungsong ah oh.
9 But you are a chosen generation, a kingly priesthood, a holy nation, a purchased people: that you may declare his virtues, who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
Toe vinghaih thung hoi aanghaih thungah kakawk, Anih to na pakoeh o thai hanah, nangcae loe qoih ih kami, siangpahrang ih qaima toksah kami, kaciim acaeng, pahoe ih kami ah na oh o:
10 Who in time past were not a people: but are now the people of God. Who had not obtained mercy; but now have obtained mercy.
canghniah loe anih ih kami ah na om o ai, toe vaihi loe Sithaw kami ah na oh o boeh: canghniah loe anih palungnathaih to na hnu o ai, toe vaihi loe a palungnathaih to na hnuk o boeh.
11 Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, to refrain yourselves from carnal desires which war against the soul,
Palung ih kaminawk, Angvin hoi kholong caeh kami baktiah na oh o pongah, hinghaih pakhra misa ah kaom taksa koehhaih hmuennawk to ayae hanah kang pacae o;
12 Having your conversation good among the Gentiles: that whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may, by the good works, which they shall behold in you, glorify God in the day of visitation.
nihcae mah nangcae to kahoih ai hmuen sah kami ah poek o cadoeh, aicae khae Sithaw angzoh na niah, nihcae mah na sak o ih kahoih hmuen to hnuk o thai hanah, Gentelnawk salakah kahoih tuinuen hoiah khosah oh.
13 Be ye subject therefore to every human creature for God’s sake: whether it be to the king as excelling;
Angraeng koehhaih baktiah, ukkungnawk tlim ah khosah oh; kasang koek siangpahrang maw,
14 Or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of the good:
to tih ai boeh loe kasae hmuen sah kaminawk to danpaek moe, kahoih hmuen sah kaminawk pakoeh hanah, kaminawk uk hanah Anih mah patoeh ih, ukkungnawk tlim ah khosah oh.
15 For so is the will of God, that by doing well you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
Tidoeh panoek ai kamthunawk to na ngam o sak duem hanah, hmuen kahoih sak hanah Sithaw mah koeh haih.
16 As free, and not as making liberty a cloak for malice, but as the servants of God.
Na loih o boeh, toe to loihhaih to zae sak aephaih bangah patoh ai ah, Sithaw ih tamna ah om oh.
17 Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
Kami boih khingya oh. Nawkamyanawk to palung oh. Siangpahrang to khingya oh.
18 Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.
Tamnanawk, zithaih hoiah nangmacae ukkungnawk khaeah angpaek oh; kahoih moe, poeknaem ukkungnawk khae khue ah na ai, poek kaham ukkungnawk khaeah doeh angpaek oh.
19 For this is thankworthy, if for conscience towards God, a man endure sorrows, suffering wrongfully.
Sithaw poekhaih tawnh pongah, sakpazaehaih om ai ah pacaekthlaekhaih hoi patangkhanghaih tongh kami loe pakoeh han krak.
20 For what glory is it, if committing sin, and being buffeted for it, you endure? But if doing well you suffer patiently; this is thankworthy before God.
Hmuen na sakpazae o pongah ang boh o naah, palung na sawk o nahaeloe, pakoehhaih timaw na hnu o tih? Toe kahoih hmuen na sak o naah raihaih na tong o nahaeloe, palungsawkhaih hoiah pauep oh, Sithaw hmaa ah talawk thaikoi hmuen ah ni oh.
21 For unto this are you called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example that you should follow his steps.
Hae tiah oh han ih ni ang kawk o: Kri doeh aicae hanah patangkhang toeng, anih ih khok tangkanh na pazui o hanah, aicae khet koi kaom ah a sak boeh:
22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth.
Anih loe zaehaih sah ai, Anih pakhaa ah amsawnlok thuihaih om ai:
23 Who, when he was reviled, did not revile: when he suffered, he threatened not: but delivered himself to him that judged him unjustly.
minawk mah anih kasae thuih o naah, anih mah kasaethuihaih hoiah pathok let ai; anih patangkhang naah, minawk to pazih ai; toe katoengah lokcaekkung khaeah angmah hoi angmah to angpaek:
24 Who his own self bore our sins in his body upon the tree: that we, being dead to sins, should live to justice: by whose stripes you were healed.
zae pongah duek han kaom kaminawk toenghaih hoiah hing o thai hanah, aicae zaehaih to a tak pum hoiah phawh moe, thinglam nuiah angbangh: anih ih kana ahmaa rang hoiah nangcae ngan na tui o.
25 For you were as sheep going astray; but you are now converted to the shepherd and bishop of your souls.
Nangcae loe lam kamkhraeng tuu baktiah na oh o; toe vaihi loe nangcae ih pakhra khenzawnkung hoi tuutoepkung khaeah nam laem o let boeh.
