1 Timothy 5
1 Rebuke not an Elder, but exhort him as a father, and the yonger men as brethren,
Khangham pasal te tei heak in, pa bang in na thum in; taciang a khangmoi zaw te sia suapui te bang ahizong;
2 The elder women as mothers, the yonger as sisters, with all purenesse.
Khangham nupi te sia nu te bang ahizong; khangmoi zaw te sia a thiangtho thinsung taw suapui numei bang in nei in.
3 Honour widowes, which are widowes in deede.
Meingong tatak te zatak vawt in.
4 But if any widowe haue children or nephewes, let them learne first to shewe godlinesse towarde their owne house, and to recompense their kinred: for that is an honest thing and acceptable before God.
Ahihang numei khatpo in tate a hibale tute a nei le, amate innkuan sia phatna a masabel in kilangsak tahen, taciang amate in nu le pa te vak in en kik ta uh hen: banghangziam cile tua thu sia Pathian mai ah a pha le a santak a hihi.
5 And shee that is a widowe in deede and left alone, trusteth in God, and continueth in supplications and praiers night and day.
Tu in amate bek om a, Pathian muang in ama kisapna ngetna te le thungetna te sun le zan in a nei tawntung sia meingong tatak a hihi.
6 But shee that liueth in pleasure, is dead, while shee liueth.
Ahihang ama lungkim natu in a nungta sia nungta ahihang a thi a hihi.
7 These things therefore warne them of, that they may be blamelesse.
Amate sia paubang ngawl ahi thei natu in hi thu te vaitha in.
8 If there bee any that prouideth not for his owne, and namely for them of his housholde, hee denieth the faith, and is worse then an infidell.
Ahihang mi khatpo in ama mite, a tuan in ama innkuan vak ngawl, a hibale ama sia upna nial hi a, thu um ngawl te sang in pha ngawl zawlai hi.
9 Let not a widow be taken into the number vnder three score yeere olde, that hath beene the wife of one husband,
Kum sawm luk a cing ngawl peuma meingong sung ah sim heak in, pasal khat bek a nei,
10 And well reported of for good woorkes: if shee haue nourished her children, if shee haue lodged the strangers, if shee haue washed the Saintes feete, if shee haue ministred vnto them which were in aduersitie, if shee were continually giuen vnto euery good woorke.
Nasep pha atu in minpha a nga; patang te keamcing in a khangtosak, leangna a do, mithiangtho te peang a silsak, haksatna thuak te a hu, na pha peuma hanciam in a zui sia meingong sazian ah sim in.
11 But refuse the yonger widowes: for when they haue begun to waxe wanton against Christ, they will marrie,
Ahihang khangmoi meingong te sia meingong sazian sung ah hel heak in: banghangziam cile amate cilesa deina a tam ciang in pasal nei kik nuam a, Christ nung ngat kik lel uh hi;
12 Hauing damnation, because they haue broken the first faith.
Amate in a masabel upa a nusiat uh hu in mawsiatna thuak uh hi.
13 And likewise also being idle they learne to goe about from house to house: yea, they are not onely ydle, but also pratlers and busibodies, speaking things which are not comely.
Taciang amate datham sin uh a, inn khat zawk inn khat pai kakoai in vak uh hi; taciang datham bek dom ngawl ngualdang te thu ah kihel uh a, pau ngawl tu teng zong pau tawntung uh hi.
14 I will therefore that the yonger women marie, and beare children, and gouerne the house, and giue none occasion to the aduersary to speake euill.
Tua ahikom khangmoi meingong te sia pasal nei in, tate nei hen a, innkuan makai tahen, tabang hile i ngalpa ze-et na hunpha a piak ngawl tu ka dei hi.
15 For certaine are alreadie turned backe after Satan.
Banghangziam cile pawlkhat te Satan nungzui in lampial siat zo hi.
16 If any faithfull man, or faithfull woman haue widowes, let them minister vnto them, and let not the Church bee charged, that there may bee sufficient for them that are widowes in deede.
Thu um mi pasal a hibale numei khatpo in meingong a nei uh le, ama in en tahen, pawlpi in meingong tatak te a hu thei natu in pawlpi vanngit suan heak tahen.
17 The Elders that rule well, let them be had in double honour, specially they which labour in the worde and doctrine,
Phatak in a lampui upa te, a tuan in Pathian thu le hilna sung ah na a seam te sia, a za ni in upat tu kilawm hi, ci ngaisun ta uh hen.
18 For the Scripture sayeth, Thou shalt not mousell the mouth of the oxe that treadeth out the corne: and, The labourer is worthie of his wages.
Banghangziam cile laithiangtho in, tang a cil khuital sia a muk tuamsak heak hen. Naseam peuma a sep thaman nga tu kilawm hi, ci hi.
19 Against an Elder receiue none accusation, but vnder two or three witnesses.
Tetti ni le thum a om bale elder te mawsiatna sang heak in.
20 Them that sinne, rebuke openly, that the rest also may feare.
Mawna vawt te sia mipi mai ah tei in, ngualdang te zong lau tu hi.
21 I charge thee before God and the Lord Iesus Christ, and the elect Angels, that thou obserue these thinges without preferring one to an other, and doe nothing partially.
Hi thu te na zui ciang in, mi khat sang in a dang khat it zaw a, doidan na taw bangma vawt heak in, ci in Pathian, Topa Jesus Christ le a tealsa vantungmi te mai ah kong vaitha hi.
22 Lay handes suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other mens sinnes: keepe thy selfe pure.
Kuama tung ah na khut nga mameang heak in, ngualdang mawna te pawlpui heak in: nangma le nangma a thiangtho in ki keam in.
23 Drinke no longer water, but vse a litle wine for thy stomakes sake, and thine often infirmities.
Na sungsang atu ahizong, tu le tu na thaneamna atu ahizong, tui bek hi nawn ngawl in, sapittui tatawm na zang in.
24 Some mens sinnes are open before hand, and goe before vnto iudgement: but some mens folowe after.
Mi pawlkhat te mawna te sia mi theampo mai ah kilang a, thukhenna mai ah pai uh hi; taciang mi pawlkhat te sia a nung pan zui uh hi.
25 Likewise also the good woorkes are manifest before hande, and they that are otherwise, cannot be hid.
Tasia bangma in mi phawlkhat te nasep pha te zong mi theampo mai ah kilang hi; taciang a kilang ngawl lai te zong phualseal thei tuan ngawl hi.
