< 1 Thessalonians 1 >
1 Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.
Pool, Silaas, nyia Timothi jiin nawa—Thesoloni Chaas dowa, seng loong Wah Rangte nyia Teesu Jisu mina loong raang ih arah: Tenthet nyia semroongroong sen raang ih toom ang ah.
2 We always give thanks to God for all of you, mentioning you in our prayers,
Sen loong thoih seng Rangte suh saarookwih lakookmi liihi eno seng rangsoom ni sen ah ban menset ruh et hi.
3 remembering without ceasing your work of faith and labor of love and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father.
Seng loong Wah nyia seng Rangte ngathong ni sen hanpi jun ih mame reeraang lan, nyia Jisu Kristo suh sen laalom anno minchan lam ih mame chekbek reeraang lan loong athoih seng ih samthun hi.
4 We know, brothers loved by God, that you are chosen,
Joon awaan loong, seng ih jat ehi, Rangte ih sen ah heh mina ang raangtaan ih minchan hanno danje halan.
5 and that our Good News came to you not in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and with much assurance. You know what kind of persons we showed ourselves to be among you for your sake.
Erah thoih seng ih Ruurang Ese sen suh jengkhaap nawa ih luulu lah angthang ih, Esa Chiiala chaan aphaan pan ih nep amiisak kamkam angkah ih huk baat koh jahali. Sen ih jat ehan sen damdi roongtong tahe adi sen raangtaan ih seng mamah kah ih tongsongti rah ah.
6 You became imitators of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit,
Sen loong ah Teesu jeng nyootnyoot etan nyia seng jeng nyootnyoot ih tahe; mamah taat ih cham anaang anbah uh, Esa Chiiala ih tiitkhaap ah tenroon lam ih kap thuk tahan.
7 so that you became an example to all who believe in Macedonia and in Achaia.
Erah thoih sen ah Mesidonia nyi Akaia hanpiite loongdung ni sen ah enyootsok etheng ih hoon lan.
8 For from you the word of the Lord has been declared, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God has gone out; so that we do not need to say anything.
Teesu tiitkhaap ah Mesidonia nyia Akaia ni tumbaat tan ah lalak tathok chaatka, erah nang ih bah sen ih Rangte suh hanpi lan ruurang ah nep noongrepwih ni thok japchaat kaatta. Erah thoih seng ih kahuk baatjih tumjih uh takah jeeka.
9 For they themselves report concerning us what kind of a reception we had from you; and how you turned to God from idols, to serve a living and true God,
Erah miloong ih seng sen jiinni raahe di mamah kah ih noppoon tahe tiit ah baat rumha, nyia tongmih soomtu tan dowa amiisak ething Rangte ah soomtu suh mame lekliitan erah tiit ah baat et rumha
10 and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead—Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath to come.
eno rang nawa heh Sah Jisu Kristo raak ah bantho han tiit anep baat rumha. Marah Rangte ih heh tek nawa ngaakthing thukta rah ah, eno heh ih seng ah Rangte tenkhat thokte anghala dowa piipangte.
