< Ephesians 6 >
1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
Naasenkhqi, Bawipa awh nami nu ingkaw nami pakhqi ak awi ce ngai uh; vetaw ak dyng na awm hy.
2 "Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with a promise:
“Nanu ingkaw napa kqihchah lah,” tinaak awi ve awipeek lammacyk ni.
3 "that it may be well with you, and that you may live long in the land."
“Naham na leek nawh khawmdek awh na hqinglu sang kaw,” tinaak awitaak ak awm ni.
4 And fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
Pakhqi, nami cakhqi kawsonaak hly kawi koeh sai law pe uh; ce anglakawhtaw Bawipa awh yyn a tawnnaak ingkaw cuk am kiknaak ing taai law sak lah uh.
5 Servants, be obedient to those who according to the flesh are your masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as to Christ;
Tamnaakhqi, Khrih ak awi naming ngai peek amyihna, khawmdek awhkaw nami boeikhqi ak awi ce kawlung ciimnaak ing ngaih law pe unawh taw kqihnaak ing kqihchah lah uh.
6 not in the way of service only when eyes are on you, as people-pleasers; but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;
Thlanghqing kawzeelnaak hamna mik huh doengawh bi a sai kana, Khrih a tamnaa na nami awm amyihna, namik kawlung khuiawh kawng Khawsa ak kawngaih ce sai law uh.
7 with good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to people;
Thlanghqing a bi ak bi amyihna ak poek kaana, Bawipa bi ak bi amyihna, namik kawlung tang tang ing bibi law pe uh,
8 knowing that whatever good thing each one does, he will receive the same again from the Lord, whether he is bound or free.
kawtih tamnaa awm tamnaa am awm, thlang boeih ing bibi leek ami bi amyihna, Bawipa ing kutdo ce pe kaw, tice sim uhyk ti.
9 You masters, do the same things to them, and give up threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no partiality with him.
Boeikhqi, nangmih ingawm nami tamnaakhqi ce cemyihna sai law lawt uh. Cekkhqi ingkaw nami Bawipa taw khawk khan na awm hy tice sim doena, tamnaakhqi ce koeh the koeh kha na uh, kawtih Khawsa ing u a haai awm am toek hy.
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might.
A hukhit awh, Bawipa a saithai thaawmnaak awh namik tha awm law sak lah uh.
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.
Setan ang cainaak ce nami khamnaak thai aham Khawsa a phuqhaa ing thoeihcam qu lah uh.
12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world's rulers of this darkness, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. (aiōn )
Ikawtih ningnih taw pumsa thisa qaal mi amning tuk qu unawh, ukkungkhqi, saithainaak ak takhqi, ve khawmdek than thaawmnaakkhqi ingkaw khan nakaw Setan myihla thaawmnaakkhqi mi ni ning tuk qu uh. (aiōn )
13 Therefore, put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand.
Cedawngawh Khawsa ang thoeihcamnaak Phuqhaa ing thoeihcam qu lah uh, cawh ni khawnghi amak nep a pha law awh, ak cakna dyi thai kawm u tiksaw, ik-oeih boeih nami sai coeng dyna naming dyih hly thai hy.
14 Stand therefore, having the belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
Cedawngawh awitak cawi zeennaak ing zeen qu unawh, dyngnaak kqangdan ing dah qu doena,
15 and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of peace;
qoepnaak awithang leek khawmyk ce myk doena a oepchoeh na awm lah uh.
16 above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one.
Vemyihkhqi boeih boeih coengawh, cangnaak phuhqa ce pawm lah uh, ve ing ni setan a la ak alh hlap hlap ce namim thih hly thai hy.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the spoken word of God;
Hulnaak thi lumyk ce myk unawh, Khawsa a zawzi Myihlak zawzi ce pawm lah uh.
18 with all prayer and requests, praying at all times in the Spirit, and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and requests for all the saints:
A soep hoeiawh cykcahnaak thoehnaak soepkep ing Myihla awh cykcah lah uh. Ve ve nak kawk khuiawh taak doena, thlakciimkhqi boeih aham cykcah poe lah uh.
19 on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in opening my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the Good News,
Ityk awhawm kam kha ka awng hoeiawh awithang leek awihyp ve ak kqih kaana kak kqawnnaak thai aham, kai aham awm cykcah law lah uh,
20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
ve a dawngawh dyihthing na awm nyng saw thiqui ing khihna awm nyng. Kqihnaak a taak kaana kak kqawnnaak thai aham, cykcah law uh.
21 But that you also may know my affairs, how I am doing, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will make known to you all things;
Ka lungnaak ka naa, Bawipa a ypawm tyihzawih, Tukika ing ik-oeih soepkep ce nik kqawn law pek khqi bit kaw, cawhkaw iamyihna ka awm nawh ikaw ka sai tice sim kawm uk ti.
22 whom I have sent to you for this very purpose, that you may know our state, and that he may comfort your hearts.
Ikawmyihna ka mi awm tice sim unawh anih ing tha ani peeknaakkhqi thai aham anih ce tyi law kawng.
23 Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Pa Khawsa ingkaw Bawipa Jesu Khrih a ven awhkaw lungnaak ingkaw cangnaak ce koeinaakhqi venawh awm seh nyng.
24 Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with incorruptible love.
Amak thi thai lungnaak ing ni Bawipa Jesu Khrih ak lungnaak khqi ak khanawh am qeennaak awm seh nyng.
