Romans 4
1 What, then, will we say Abraham our father to have found, according to flesh?
Erah ang abah, sengte sengwah jih ajaat Abraham asuh seng ih tumjih li ih? Heh ih jatje arah tumjijih rah ah?
2 For if Abraham was declared righteous by works, he has to boast—but not before God;
Heh reeraang dang ajang jun ih Rangte ngathong nah Abraham ah kateng angta bah, heh ah engaampo jih angta—enoothong Rangte miksok dobah tajen ngaampooka.
3 for what does the writing say? “And Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him for righteousness”;
Rangteele ni liiha, “Abraham ih Rangte ah tuungmaang etta, erah tuungmaang jun ih Rangte ih heh ah kateng et thiikta”
4 and to him who is working, the reward is not reckoned of grace, but of debt;
Marah mina moot ni kala abah lakbi thaang ah chola, erah suh thaangmuh lakkot liijih tah angka; erah chola ah heh lakniik thaang.
5 and to him who is not working, and is believing on Him who is declaring righteous the impious, his faith is reckoned for righteousness—
Enoothong, marah mina heh mookaat suh lah angthang ih heh hanpi suh laalomte ah, ethih ah ese et jenlekte wah Rangte suh hanpiila, eno erah hanpiila thaang ah kateng mina et thiik ah.
6 even as David also speaks of the blessedness of the man to whom God reckons righteousness apart from works:
Erah raang ih Dewid ih, o mina neng mootkaat muh taat ang abah uh, Rangte ih kateng et thiik rum ano tenroon chote loong asuh amet liiha:
7 “Blessed [are] they whose lawless acts were forgiven, And whose sins were covered;
“O thetre biin anaan ha loong ah tenroon ang ah, nyia neng rangdah biin anaan ha loong uh tenroon ang ah!
8 Blessed [is] the man To whom the LORD may not reckon sin.”
Marah mina rangdah Teesu ih larookweka loong ah tenroon ang ah!”
9 [Is] this blessedness, then, on the circumcision, or also on the uncircumcision—for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness?
Erah tenroon tiit ah Dewid ih baat ha rah khoopkhan banlam hoonchoote loong suh laklak tam baat ha? Emah tah angka! Erah khoopkhan banlam hoon mute loong suh nep baat ha. Tumeah Rangteele ni amet liiha, “Abraham ih Rangte suh hanpiita, erah thoidi heh ah Rangte ih kateng et thiikta.”
10 How then was it reckoned? He being in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision;
Erah babah angta? Abraham heh khoopkhan banlam maang hoon di tam angta, tamale erah lini angta? Erah heh khoopkhan banlam maang hoon di angta, lini tah angka.
11 and he received a sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of faith in the uncircumcision, for his being father of all those believing through uncircumcision, for the righteousness also being reckoned to them,
Abraham khoopkhanta banlam ah sin esiit angta heh ah Rangte suh hanpiite ang kano laalek heh ah kateng ih thiikjih angta. Erah thoidi Abraham ah deek akaan ni chiiala pan loongtang raangtaan ih hewah roop angta, mina loong neng khoopkhan banlam hoon muh taat ang abah uh, Rangte suh hanpiite loong abah heh ih kateng et thiik ah.
12 and father of circumcision to those not of circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of faith, that [is] in the uncircumcision of our father Abraham.
Abraham ah khoopkhan banlam hoonchoote loong raangtaan ih uh neng waroop, erah langla khoopkhan luulu lah angthang ih, sengte sengwah Abraham heh khoopkhan banlam maang hoon di laalomta ah likhiik neng loong ah uh emamah ih laalomla.
13 For not through law [is] the promise to Abraham, or to his seed, of his being heir of the world, but through the righteousness of faith;
Rangte ih Abraham nyia heh sutoom satoom loong suh kakhamta adi mongrep ah heh raangtaan ang ah ih baatta, eno amiimiisak langta, erah langla Abraham ih Hootthe liphan thaang ih tah angta, enoothong heh hanpi nyia Rangte ih heh ah kateng et thiik thoidi angta.
14 for if they who are of law [are] heirs, faith has been made void, and the promise has been made useless;
Tumeah Rangte kakham ah Hootthe lathong ni songtongte loong raangtaan ih mok ang abah, heh suh tuungmaang nyia heh kakham ah thaangmuh ih hoon ah.
15 for the Law works wrath; for where law is not, neither [is] transgression.
Hootthe ih Rangte tenkhat ah datpoon ah; enoothong marah di hootthe tajeeka, erah doh hootthe thaangju theng uh tajeeka ang ah.
16 Because of this [it is] of faith, that [it may be] according to grace, for the promise being sure to all the seed, not to that which [is] of the Law only, but also to that which [is] of the faith of Abraham,
Erah thoidi kakham ah tuungmaang jun ih ang ah, tumeah Rangte kakham ah Abraham sutoom loong suh thaangmuh ih kottheng thiinta—Hootthe lathong ni songtongte loong suh laklak lah angthang ih, Abraham ih hanpiita likhiik o ih hanpiiha erah loong suh nep koha. Erah thoidi Abraham ah chiiala lam ni seng waroop;
17 who is father of us all (according as it has been written: “A father of many nations I have set you,”) before Him whom he believed—God, who is quickening the dead, and is calling the things that are not as being.
Rangteele ni liiha likhiik ah, “Ngah ih an deek akaan rep raangtaan ih waroop ang thuk ha.” Erah kakham ah, marah Abraham ih hanpiita Rangte miksok di ese—tek nawa ngaakthing thukte nyia heh jengkhaap nawa ih jaatrep maangdi lajeeta loong ah jen dongsiitte Rangte suh ah.
18 Who, against hope, believed in hope, for his becoming father of many nations according to that spoken: “So will your seed be”;
Laalomjih lah angka di, Abraham ih hanpi nyia laalom etta, erah thoih “deek akaan rep waroop ang thukta.” Rangteele ni liiha likhiik ah, “An sutoom satoom loong ah reksih thanthan ih jaatjaang ah.”
19 and having not been weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already become dead (being about one hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb,
Erah tok adi Abraham ah paang chaasiit angta; enoothong teekaang taat ang abah uh heh tuungmaang ah kamkam angta, amiidi heh ah tek nanah angta eno heh minuh Saara uh heh sah tajeeta.
20 and at the promise of God did not stagger in unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, having given glory to God,
Heh tuungmaang jun ih Rangte kakham asuh tenchi tah angta; heh tuungmaang adi chaan aphaan eje angta, eno heh ih Rangte rangphoong ruh eta.
21 and having been fully persuaded that what He has promised He is also able to do:
Rangte kakhamta asuh Abraham ah kamkam ih laalomta.
22 for this reason also it was reckoned to him for righteousness.
Erah thoidi Abraham ah, heh tuungmaang jun ih “Rangte ih kateng ih thiikta.”
23 And it was not written on his account alone that it was reckoned to him,
Marah Abraham suh “Kateng et liita” erah langla heh suh luulu li tiit taraangka
24 but also on ours, to whom it is about to be reckoned—to us believing on Him who raised up Jesus our Lord out of the dead,
Seng loong o kateng et thiik he erah loong raangtaan ih nep raangha nyia Jisu Kristo tek nawa we ngaakthing thukta ih hanpiihi loong ah suh nep raangha.
25 who was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised up because of our being declared righteous.
Tumeah seng rangdah thoi ih heh roidong ah tek haat thukta, eno Rangte ngathong nah seng loong ah kateng angsuh we ngaakthing thukta.
