Romans 4
1 What shall we say then that Abraham hath found, who is our father according to the flesh.
Mihem lam dol a sei dingin Abraham chu Juda mite tahsan phutdohpa ahi. Pathen toh kilungto theina dinga ipi ahinbol doh em?
2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory, but not before God.
Athilpha bol chun Pathen santhei asodoh sah a ahileh, aman kisonpi ding ananei ding ahitai. Hinla, hichu Pathen lama dingin ahitheipoi.
3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was reputed to him unto justice.
Ajeh chu Pathen thubun, “Abraham'in Pathen atahsan'in, chule hiche atahsanna jeh chun Pathen in michonphan asimtai!” tin eiseipeh uve.
4 Now to him that worketh, the reward is not reckoned according to grace, but according to debt.
Mihon na atoh tenguleh anatoh man'u chu thilpeh akitipoi, amahon akilodoh-u ahijoi.
5 But to him that worketh not, yet believeth in him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is reputed to justice, according to the purpose of the grace of God.
Hinlah miho michonphaa kisim ho chu, anatoh jal'u hilouvin, michonse ho ngaidampa Pathen atahsan jal'u ahibouve.
6 As David also termeth the blessedness of a man, to whom God reputeth justice without works:
David'in jong michonpha tia kiphongdoh ho chu natoh jal jeh ahilou thudol ana seijin ahi.
7 Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
“O seingailou ahinauva kingaidama, achonset-u mukit loudia kisuhbeipeh ho chu iti kipa um hitam!
8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord hath not imputed sin.
Ahinai, achungchang thu'u Pakaiyin achonsetnau jih lutsa akoi noimang peh'a um michu iti kipa um hitam!” ati.
9 This blessedness then, doth it remain in the circumcision only, or in the uncircumcision also? For we say that unto Abraham faith was reputed to justice.
Tua hi Judah mite dinga bou phatthei channa ham? Ahilouleh chidang namdang cheptanlou ho dinga jong hiya ham? Ahinai, eihon jong Abraham chu atahsan jal'a Pathen'in themchang a anakoi ahitai, ti inasei jiuvin ahi.
10 How then was it reputed? When he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.
Ahin, hichu iti hung hithei'ah ahidem? Ama chep kitan jouva bou themchang hiya ham? Ahilouleh cheptan masang joh ham? Chentah a seiding in, Abraham chu Pathen in cheptan masanga analah ahitai.
11 And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the justice of the faith, which he had, being uncircumcised; that he might be the father of all them that believe, being uncircumcised, that unto them also it may be reputed to justice:
Cheptan hi Abraham'in tahsan aneiye ti amelchihna ahi. Chule Pathen in ama chu michonpha tia asan'a chule aphondohna chu cheptan masangpeh ahitai. Hijeh'a hi, Abraham hi cheptanlou atahsanho dinga apau ahi. Atahsan nau jeh a chu amaho michonpha tia kisima ahitauve.
12 And might be the father of circumcision; not to them only, that are of the circumcision, but to them also that follow the steps of the faithful, that is in the uncircumcision of our father Abraham.
Chule Abraham hi cheptan ho dinga jong lhagaova apau ahi. Hinla hiche hi Abraham cheptan masanga tahsan anei tobanga tahsan neihoa ding bou ahi.
13 For not through the law was the promise to Abraham, or to his seed, that he should be heir of the world; but through the justice of faith.
Tahbeh mongin, Pathen in vannoi pumpi hi Abraham le achilhahte apeh ahin, hichu Pathen Danthu ajui jeh-u ahipon, chusanga tahsan jal'a kijopmatna phatah anei jaljoh ahi.
14 For if they who are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, the promise is made of no effect.
Pathen Thutep hi danthu juihoa dinga bou hitaleh, tahsan ngaitalou ding ahi. Chule thutep hi ajeh bei hiding ahitai.
15 For the law worketh wrath. For where there is no law, neither is there transgression.
Ajeh chu Danthu hin athupeh ho jui dinga gimbolna jengbou ahin lhut ding ahi (Dan suhkeh louna dingin lampi khat bou aum'in, hichu Dan neitah lou ding chu ahije).
16 Therefore is it of faith, that according to grace the promise might be firm to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all,
Chutia chu, thutep hi tahsan jal'a kimu'ah ahin, manbei thilpeh-akipea chu ahi. Abraham tahsan tobang inei uva ahileh Mose Dan ijuiyu hihen, ijuilouvu hijongleh eihon ibon'uva imu teidiu ahi. Ajeh chu Abraham chu atahsan jousea dinga pa ahi.
17 (As it is written: I have made thee a father of many nations, ) before God, whom he believed, who quickeneth the dead; and calleth those things that are not, as those that are.
Hiche hi ahi Pathen Lekhabun asei, “Keiman nangma namtin mipa a kasem nahitai” tia Pathen in ajah a anasei chu. Hiche ahitheina chu Abraham'in Pathen atahsan'a athisa hinsahkitna chule imacha louva kona thil thah asemdoh thei tahsan na jeh ahi.
18 Who against hope believed in hope; that he might be made the father of many nations, according to that which was said to him: So shall thy seed be.
Kinepna ding umlouna jenga jong Abraham chu akinem jingin, ama namtin dinga Pa ahung hiding tahsanna aneiyin ahi. Ajehchu Pathen in ajah a, “Chutia a chu son le chilhah tampi nahin neiding ahi,” atipeh ahi.
19 And he was not weak in faith; neither did he consider his own body now dead, whereas he was almost an hundred years old, nor the dead womb of Sara.
Chule Abraham chu kum 100 nailam ahi jengin jong hitia atahsa chu athi tobang ahitah vang'in, chule Sarah naobu jong chu avoitah vang'in, atahsan chu adai lhadehpon ahi.
20 In the promise also of God he staggered not by distrust; but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God:
Abraham chun Pathen thutep longlouvin atahsan'in ahi. Tahbeh in atahsanna chu ahatcheh in chule hichea chun Pathen loupina apen ahi.
21 Most fully knowing, that whatsoever he has promised, he is able also to perform.
Pathen chun akitepna ipi hijongleh aboldoh ding ahi ti hetchetna kicheh aneiye.
22 And therefore it was reputed to him unto justice.
Chule Abraham chu atahsan jal'a Pathen'in michonpha tia asem ahitai.
23 Now it is not written only for him, that it was reputed to him unto justice,
Chutia Pathen in ama michonphaa asem chu Abraham dinga bou phachoma ahipoi. Eiho phatchompi dinga jong kijih a ahi.
24 But also for us, to whom it shall be reputed, if we believe in him, that raised up Jesus Christ, our Lord, from the dead,
I-Pakaiyu Yeshua thinaa kona kaithoupa chu itahsan uva ahileh Pathen in eiho jong michonpha'a eisem dingu ahi, ti hetchetna eipeuve.
25 Who was delivered up for our sins, and rose again for our justification.
Ichonset jeh uva Ama chu thi dinga pehdoh a uma ahin, chule hinna a Ama kaithouva aum hin Pathen to eisuhcham'u ahitai.
