1 Corinthians 15
1 But I make known to you, brethren, the gospel which I preached unto you, which you indeed received, in which you also stand,
Ka püie aw, Thangkdaw ka ning jah mtheh ning jah ksingsak be veng, acuna Thangkdaw dokham u lü, nami jumnak acuna khana angkhänga ngdüiki.
2 by which you are also saved; which word I preached to you, if you hold it fast, otherwise you believed in vain.
Ka ngthu sang cän nami jum sawxatkia am kya lü, nami läklam kcangkia akyak üng, acun bä üng küikyana nami kyaki.
3 For I delivered unto you in the first place that which I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
Ka yah nami veia ka ning jah peki, acun cun sayü lü däm säihki ni, Khritaw cun mi mkhyekata phäh thiki tia Cangcim üng ng’yuki,
4 and that he was buried, and that he arose on the third day according to the Scriptures;
ani cun ami k’ut, amhnüp kthum üng tho law beki tia Cangcim üng ng’yuki ni.
5 and that he was seen by Cephas; then by the twelve.
Pita veia ngdang law lü, acun käna xaleinghngihea veia ngdangki.
6 Then he was seen by more than five hundred brethren at once, of whom the more remain unto this day, but some have fallen asleep.
Acun käna bena, phyamhmaa kthaka nungki veia ngdang lawki, khawhah cun tuhkbäih veia xüng hamkie, avange cun thi pängkie ni.
7 Then he was seen by James; then by all the apostles.
Acun käna Jakuka veia ngdangki, acun käna ngsä he naküta veia ngdangki.
8 But last of all he was seen by me, as one born out of due time.
Ak’hnu säiha, keia vei pi ngdang lawki, kei cun am kha se hmi lawkia mäih ni ka law ta.
9 For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
Kei cun ngsä he ksunga ka dik säihki, Pamhnama sangcime ka jah mkhuimkhakia kyase, ngsäa pi am ka nglawi kyawki va.
10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace was not vain toward me; but I have labored more abundantly than they all: and not I, but the grace of God with me.
Cunsepi, Pamhnama bäkhäknak am ahikba ka kyaki; a bäkhäknak amdanga a na pet cun ni, ngsä kcea kthaka ktha na bawk lü ka khüikhawmki. Acukba ka kthanak bawk cun kamäta kthanaka am kya, Pamhnama bäkhäknak naw kei üng khut pawhki.
11 Then whether I or they, so we preach, and so you believed.
Acukba ani üng, keia khyüh kyase, amimia khyüh pi kyase, ahin kung kami pyenki, nangmi naw pi ahin kung nami jumki.
12 But if Christ is preached that he is risen from the dead, how do certain ones among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
Atuha kami ngthu cun Khritaw thihnak üngkhyüh thobeki tia kyase, ise nangmi üng avange naw, “Khyang kthia thawhnak be am ve,” nami tiki ni?
13 but if there is no resurrection of the dead, Christ is not risen:
Khyang kthia thawhnak be am a ve üng Khritaw pi am tho law be khai sü;
14 but if Christ is not risen, then indeed is our preaching vain, and your faith is vain.
acunüng, Khritaw tho law bekia am akyak üng kami ngthu sang amdanga kya lü nami jumnak pi amdanga kya khai ni.
15 And we are indeed found false witnesses of God; because we testified according to God that he raised Christ: whom he did not raise, if then the dead rise not.
Acunüng, Pamhnam hleikia mi mdankia ni akya, isetiakyaküng, Khritaw cun Pamhnam naw mtho beki mi tia phäh ni, ahin akcang ta thikie sak xünnaka am tho be u. Pamhnam naw pi Khritaw am mtho be.
16 But if the dead rise not, neither is Christ risen.
Khyang kthie, am ami thawh law be üng Khritaw pi am tho law be;
17 But if Christ is not risen, your faith is vain; you are yet in your sins.
acunüng, Khritaw am a thawh law be ham üng nami jumnak pi amdanga kya lü nami mkhyekatnak üng khyük lü nami thi hamkie ni.
18 Then indeed those having fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
Acukba akyak üng Khritaw üng thi pängkiea jumeikie pi khyük khaie ni.
19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable.
Tuhkbäih mi xün k'um däk üng Khritawa khana äpeinak mi ta lü akcea saka phäh am akyak üng khawmdeka veki khyange kthaka jah mpyeneinak yahei bawk khaia mi nglawiki.
20 But now Christ is risen from the dead, the firstfruit of them that slept.
Acunsepi, Khritaw cun thihnak üngka naw tho law be kcang lü, ipkie pi tholaw be khaie tia msingnak ni.
21 For since death was through a man, the resurrection of the dead is also through a man.
Nghngicim khyanga phäha thihnak a ve lawa mäiha, nghngicim khyanga phäh kunga khyang kthia thawh lawnak be ve lawki.
22 For as in Adam all die, so truly in Christ shall all be made alive.
Adam üng khyang naküt ami thiha kba Khritaw üng khyang naküt tho be khai.
23 But each one in his own rank: Christ the first-fruit; then they who are Christ's, at His coming:
Acunsepi, khyang mat cim ami kcün üng tho khaie; Khritaw cun akcüka tho be khai. Acun käna Khritawa law be üng ani taki tho law be khaie.
24 then the end, when he may deliver up the kingdom to God, even the Father, when he may destroy all government, all authority and power.
Acun käna apäihnak pha law khai; Khritaw naw ngmüimkhya upkie, anae, johite naküt a jah näng lawpäng üng Khritaw naw khyawngpe cun Pamhnam üng ap law khai.
25 For it behooves him to reign until he may put all enemies under his feet.
A yee naküt a khaw kunga am a jah tak hama küt üng, Khritaw naw jah up yah kung khai.
26 Death the last enemy is destroyed.
Ak’hnu säiha ye näng vai cun thihnak kyaki.
27 For, he has subordinated all things beneath his feet. But when he may say, that all things have been subordinated, it is evident that the One having subordinated all things to him is excepted.
“Pamhnam naw avan ania khaw kea tak khai,” tia Cangcim naw pyenki. “Avan naküt tak khai” tinak üng Pamhnam amät am ngpüi, Khritawa khaw kea avan takia Pamhnam a ngpüi.
28 But when he may subordinate all things to him, then the Son himself will also be subordinated to him who hath subordinated all things to Himself, in order that God may be all things in all.
Acunüng, avan naküt Khritawa upnaka kea taka akya lawpäng üng, Cakpa amät kung Pamhnama kea ve khai acuna Pamhnam naw avan ania kea taki cun naw avan up khai.
29 Then what shall they do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead rise not at all, why are they also baptized for them?
Atuh, khyang kthia thawhnak be am a ve üng, i ja amimi naw yah vai ami äpei. Khyang kthia phäha baptican khankie ihawkba kya khaie. Thikiea phäha ivai baptican khankie ni.
30 Why indeed are we in jeopardy every hour?
Ise mimi pi anglät se kyühkse da akcün tä mi dawngki ni?
31 I protest by your rejoicing, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
Ka püie, amhnüp tä thihnak ka sawngki! Khritaw Jesuh mi Bawipa üng ka ning jah awhcahnak pyen lü, “Kei, a mhnüp tä se ka thiki” ka ti ni.
32 If after the manner of men I have fought with the wild beasts in Ephesus, what profit is it to me? If the dead rise not, let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die.
Nghngicima ngjakhlüa mäih düta Ephet mlüh üng “Sa kyung he” ka jah ngtunpüi vai sü üng i ka ngmang na khai ni? Khyang kthiea thawhnak be am ve khaia akyak üng, “Mi ei lü mi aw be vai u, khawngawi mi thi täng khai” mi ti hlü ye se.
33 Be not deceived: Evil communications corrupt good manners.
Käh yu ua. Am dawkia püipaw naw vecawh kpyaki.
34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak to your shame.
Ngsunpyunnak üng law be u lü, mkhyekatnak hawih ua. Avang naw Pamhnam am ami ksing hin na ngkeei vaia kei naw pyen veng.
35 But one will say, How are the dead raised? and with what body do they come?
Mat mat naw, “Khyang kthie cun ihawkba tholaw be khaie ni? Ia mäia pumsa na khaie ni?” ti lü ngthäh khai.
36 Thou foolish one, that which thou sowest, is not quickened unless it may die;
Nang khyang k’ang, namät naw na sawa mci cun am a thih üng am cawt law be;
37 and that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be, but naked grain, if it may happen to be of wheat, or of some one of the other grains;
Acunüng, na saw cän pumsaa ve khaia am na saw khawiki, a mci va na saw khawiki, cang mcia pi kyase mci kcea pi kyase mci däk va na sawki. Adäm pänga apung am nglingki. Akäna va däm law khai.
38 but God gives it a body as he wished; and to each of the seeds its own body.
Acunsepi, Pamhnam naw a mäta ngjakhlüa pumsa jah peki, mci naküta veia ami mäta pumsa phäh phäh jah peki.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is indeed a flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fishes.
Pumsa naküt am täng; nghngicima pumsa mjü at, khisa pumsa mjü at, khaa pumsa mjü at, ngaa pumsa mjü ata kyaki.
40 Indeed there are heavenly bodies, and there are earthly bodies: but indeed there is one glory of the heavenlies, and another glory of those upon the earth.
Khankhaw pumsae ve u lü, khawmdek pumsae pi vekie; acunsepi khankhaw pumsaa hlüngtainak hnga lü, khawmdek pumsaa hlüngtainak pi hngaki.
41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for star differs from star in glory:
Nghngia hlüngtainak akce, khyaa hlüngtainak akce, aisiea hlüngtainak akce; aisi jah aisi pi ani hlüngtainak am täng ni.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
Khyang kthia thawhnak be pi acukba kyaki. Yawk k’uh üng thu lü, a thawh law be üng am thi thei.
43 it is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power.
K’ut üng am daw lü seki, mthawh be üng ngto lü daw khai.
44 It is sown a psychical body; it is raised a pneumatical body. If there is a psychical body, there is also a pneumatical (body).
K’ut üng mtisa pumsaa kya lü; mthawh be üng ngmüimkya pumsaa kya khai. Khawmdek pumsa vekia kyase Ngmüimkhya pumsa pi ve khai.
45 As indeed it has been written; The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last man Adam, a life-creating spirit.
Cangcim naw, “Nghngicim kcük Adam cun khyang xünga mhnünmcenga kyaki”; a tia kyase, Adam anghnu cun xünnak Ngmüimkhya jah peki kyaki.
46 But that which is spiritual was not first, but that which is animal; afterward that which is spiritual.
Ngmüimkhya lam cun ve law makia am kya, pumsa lam ve law ma lü acun käna Ngmüimkhya lam ve lawki.
47 The first man was from the earth, earthy: the second man from heaven.
Nghngicim akcük cun khawmdek üngkhyüh mhnünmcenga kya lü; anghngihnaka nghngicim cun khankhawa kaa kyaki.
48 As was the earthy, such are they also who are earthy; and as was the heavenly, such are they also who are heavenly.
Khawmdek üng mhnünmcenga khyange cun khawmdek khyangea mäih law u se; khankhaw üngka khyange cun khankhaw üngka naw lawki hea mäih lawki he.
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we must also bear the image of the heavenly.
Acunüng, khawmdek üng mhnünmceng khyanga müia mäih mi müinaka mäiha, khankhaw khyanga müihmai pi mi müihmai na khai.
50 But I say this, brethren, that flesh and blood are not able to inherit the kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption.
Ka püie aw, pumsa jah thisen Pamhnama pea am ve thei; thi theiki naw am thi theiki cun am yah tia ning jah mtheh veng.
51 Behold, I speak to you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
Ngthupki ning jah mtheh vang; mi van mi ip khaia am kya.
52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
Acunsepi, ak’hnu säiha kpun a ng'yüng law üng, asängca üng, mik mkhyüpca üng, mi van mi hngalangei law khai. Kpun a ng'yüng law üng thi pängkie cun am pyawih theikia tho law be u se; mimi, mi na vekie pi mi hngalang law khai.
53 For it behooves this corruptible to put on incorruption, and this mortal to put on immortality.
Tuhkbäih hina pyawih theiki am pyawih theikia nglat law lü, tuhkbäih hina thi theiki käh thi theikia nglat law khai.
54 But when this corruptible may put on incorruption, and this mortal may put on immorality, then shall the word which has been written be fulfilled, Death is swallowed up in victory.
Hina thi theiki hin am thi theikia a nglat law üng, “Thihnak cun mkhyüh lü nängnak cun küm law khai” tia Cangcim cun küm law khai.
“Thihnak aw, na ngnängnak, hawa ni a ve. Aw thihnak aw, na jah kphyaknak vai johit hawa ni a ve?” (Hadēs g86)
56 But the sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law.
Thihnaka naw johit cun mkhyekatnak üngkhyüh yahki; mkhyekatnaka khyaihnak cun thuma kyaki.
57 But thanks be unto God, who gives us our victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Acunsepi, mi Bawipa Jesuh Khritaw üng ngnängnak jah pekia Pamhnama veia jenak ve se.
58 So, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
Acunakyase, ka mhläkphyanaka ka püie aw, khängkia ngdüi ua. Bawipa khutbi ktha na kcang u lü bi ua, Bawipa khutbi nami bi hin am danga am kya tia nami ksingki.
