< Galatians 2 >
1 Then fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with [me] also.
Acunüng, kum xaleikphyü angvei käna Tihtuh pi cehpüi lü, Banabah am Jerusalem khawa kani hang cit beki.
2 And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.
Pamhnam naw ka ceh vaia mdanak na mhmuh se ka citkia kyaki. Khyangmjükce he veia ka sang khawia thangkdaw cun angvai he veia pi ngbämnaka ka jah mtheh khaiki. Ajana kcün üng ka bilawh pänga pi kyase atuh ka bilawha pi kyase amdanga akya vai am ka ngaiki.
3 But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:
Ka hlawnga awmki, Tihtuh cun Krik khyanga kyase pi amthuia a vun am mawihsak u.
4 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:
Avang naw ta a vun mawih vai ami täng. Khritaw Jesuh üng kami taka lätnaka mawng hmu khai hea jumeiki hlawk hlawka ahina khyang he kami ksunga anghmüa lutki he. Tamna ami jah pawh hlü.
5 To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
Cunsepi thangkdaw, ngthungtak cun sungkham akyanak vaia phäha asängca hman pi ami ngthua keha am awm u nawng.
6 But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man’s person: ) for they who seemed [to be somewhat] in conference added nothing to me:
Mkhawnga kya kyaw u sepi keia phäha ta ami hngalangnak am ve. Pamhnam naw akpung da teng lü ä mtaiki. Khyang ngvai hea veia ka pyen hlü ta, “Akthai mcäinak keia phäha am hlü.”
7 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as [the gospel] of the circumcision [was] unto Peter;
Mhnam naw Pita Judah he veia thangkdaw sang khaia khutbi a peta kba, kei pi ani naw khyangmjükce he veia thangkdaw sangnak khut a na petia hmuki he.
8 (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles: )
Judah he phäha Pita ngsäa mcawna kba, kei pi Pamhnama johit am khyangmjükce he phäha ngsäa mcawna ka kyaki.
9 And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we [should go] unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.
Mkhawnga ami jah ngaih Jakuk, Pita la Johan naw, Pamhnam naw ahina khutbi kei üng pi na peki ti ngsingsaki he. Acunakyase kami van kami khüi hmaihki ti msingnak vaia Banabah la kei jah hnuksetki he. Banabah la kei khyangmjükce he ksunga khutbi pawh ning se amimi cun Judah he ksunga khutbi pawh khai hea kami mkhyäpki.
10 Only [they would] that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.
Ami ksunga khuikha m'yenkseki he jah süm nglät vaia avan naw ami jah mcäi, acuna khutbi cun ka pawh vaia kamät naw pi akcüka ka bü kunga kyaki.
11 But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.
Acunüng, Pita Antioka law se khyang he maa ka ksenak. Hma kungkia kyase ni.
12 For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision.
Jakuka jah tüih lawa khyang hea am ami pha law ham üng Pita cun jumeiki khyangmjükce am atänga ei hmaihki. Acunsepi khyang hea pha law käna, vun mawih vai ktungnaki he jah kyüh lü khyangmjükce he hlawnga am ei lü pyaiki.
13 And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.
Jumeikia Judah khyang he pi Pita am atänga yailei hnga u lü awmki he naw Banabah pi yaileina u se ami hlawnga ngkhawki.
14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before [them] all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?
Thangkdaw üng am ami cehcawn ka jah ksing law üng Pitaa veia, “Nang Judah khyanga na kyaki cunsepi Judah khyanga mäiha am xüngsei lü khyangmjükce hea mäiha na xüngseiki. Acunüng ihawkba khyangmjükce he Judah khyang hea kba xüngsei khai hea amthuia na jah ngtünsaki ni?” ti lü avana ma ka pyen.
15 We [who are] Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,
Khyang he naw “Khyangka khyangmjükcea” ami jah suia kba am kya u lü, akcanga Judah khyanga kami hmi lawki.
16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
Cunsepi khyang cun Thuma pyen a pawhnak am ngdüngdaikia am kya lü, Jesuh Khritaw a jumeinak däng am ni ngdüngdaikia akya ve. Keimi pi Khritaw kami jumnak am Pamhnam üng kami ngsungpyun khaia Khritaw Jesuh kami jumeiki. Thum kami läka phäha am kya. U pi Thuma ti pawh lü am mi ngsungpyun thei.
17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, [is] therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.
Acunüng Khritaw üng Pamhnama veia ngsungpyun vai kami kthanaka phäha Khyangmjükce he mäiha khyangka kami kya hngaki aw? Khritaw cun mkhyekat jah pawh sakia kyaki aw? Am kya.
18 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
Ka kpyeh pänga Thuma ninge läk vaia ka tünei be üngta, kamät cun khyang hea veia Thum kpyehkia ka ngdan saki ni.
19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.
Thuma awma küt üng kei cun ka thiki. Isetiakyaküng Thum naw a na hnima kyaki. Acun cun Pamhnama phäha ka xünseinak vaia phäha kyaki ni. Kei cun Khritaw am atänga ania kutlamktunga khana ka thiki.
20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
Acunakyase kamät am xüng ti veng. Khritaw kei üng xüngki. Atuh ka xünak cun na mhläkphya na lü amäta xünak na pekia Pamhnama Capa ka jumnak am ni ka xün ve.
21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness [come] by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
Pamhnama bäkhäknak am ma veng. Thuma phäha ngdüngdainak yah theia akya üng Khritaw amdanga thikia kya khai.
