2 Corinthians 10
1 Now I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, I, who present indeed am lowly among you, but am bold toward you when absent;
Kei Pawluh nami ksunga mlung hnemnak am awm lü, athuknaka ka ve üng linglai khawiki naw, Khritawa hniphnawinak la dawnak am ning jah nghui na veng.
2 but I entreat you, that I may not when I am present be bold with that confidence wherewith I think of being bold towards some, who think of us as walking according to the flesh.
Pumsa lama keimi, kami ngdüithokia jah ngaiki hea veia ka linga kba, nami veia ka pha law üng ka linglai khaia ä nami na lingnak vaia ning jah nghui na veng.
3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh,
Khawmdek üng mi awmki, acunsepi khawmdeka thum üng am mi ngtu naw.
4 (for the weapons of our warfare are not fleshly, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds, )
Keimia ngtuknaka likcim he cun khawmdek likcim hea am kya lü Pamhnama johita likcim he ni. Acun cun mlüh ngvawng he jah kpyehnak vaia kami summangki.
5 casting down reasonings, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing every purpose into captivity to the obedience of Christ,
Am cangkia ngcuhnak he la Pamhnam ksingkhyapnak sungkhamkia awhcahnak he cun jah kpyeh u lü, ami cungaihnak jah pinpawk u lü Khritawa ngthu kami jah läklam saki.
6 and being in readiness to punish every disobedience, when the measure of your obedience shall be full.
Ngthu nami ngaihnak a kümkawi käna, ngthu ä ngaihnak naküt kami mkhuimkha khaia kami ngcüngcei pängki.
7 Ye look at the outward appearance. If any one trusteth to himself that he belongeth to Christ, let him of himself consider this again, that as he belongeth to Christ, so also do we.
Ipi akpung lam nami tengki. Nangmi üngka uyaw Khritawa ka kyakia a ngaihkyu üng, ngaikyu be kawm. Amimi Khritawa ka ami kyaa kba, Keimi pi Khritawa ka kami kya hngaki.
8 For even if I should boast still more highly of our authority, which the Lord gave us for building you up, and not pulling you down, I should not be put to shame;
Ka ana (nangmi ning jah kpyehnak vaia am kya lü nangmi ning jah pyanthamnak kdaw vaia, Bawipa naw ana pet cen) aktäa ka awhcahnak üng pi ka hmai am se khai.
9 that I may not seem as if I would terrify you by my letters.
Ca ka yuk law am ka ning jah mkyühkia am kya.
10 For his letters, saith one, are weighty and strong; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible.
Uyaw naw, “Pawluha cayuk he yüh u lü kyanki he, amät mi hlawnga a awm üng a ktha am kyan lü a ngthu pyen pi amdang ni,” tiki.
11 Let such a one count upon this, that such as we are in word by letters when absent, such will we be also in deed when present.
Acuna khyang he naw nami hlawnga am kami ve üng ca üng kami yuka kba, nami hlawnga kami ve üng bilawhnak am kami awmki ni ti hin ksing khai.
12 For we do not venture to reckon ourselves among, or compare ourselves with, some of those who commend themselves; but they, measuring themselves among themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are not wise.
Amimät la amimät mhlünmtaieikia khyang he am atänga kami ve vai am ngaih u nawng, mtängnak vai pi am kami ngaihki. Ihlawka angki he ni! Amimät naw amimät msuimcäpnak am amimäta ngthu mkhyahki he.
13 But we will not boast of things that are without our measure, but according to the measure of the line which God allotted us, —a measure to reach even to you.
Keimi awhcahnak hin kami awhcah vaia kthaka am awhcah u nawng; Mhnam naw a jah tak peta khuta k’uma um lü nami ksunga kami bilawh pi ngpüiki ni.
14 For we do not stretch ourselves beyond our measure, as though we reached not to you; (for as far as even to you did we come, in the gospel of Christ; )
Acuna k’uma nami umkia kyase, Khritawa thangkdaw law püi u lü nami veia kami law üng acuna thea am bilo u nawng.
15 not boasting of things that are without measure, in other men's labors, but having hope, when your faith is increased, that our line will through you be still further extended,
Acunakyase, Pamhnam naw pawh vaia a jah tak peta thea khyang kcea khutbia kthaka am awhcah ve ung. Nami jumnak däm law se, nami ksunga khutbi akdäm bawk kami pawh law khaia kami ngak’uhki.
16 so that we may preach the gospel in the regions beyond you; not boasting, in another's line, of things made ready to our hand.
Acunüng thangkdaw cun nangmia khaw pi khye u lü kami sang khai. Khyang kce hea khawa bilawh pänga khutbi kami awhcahnak vai am ngaih ve ung.
17 But “he that boasteth, let him boast in the Lord.”
Cunsepi, “A awhcah vai ngaiki naw, Bawipa bilawhnak awhcah na se” tia cangcim naw pyenki.
18 For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but he whom the Lord commendeth.
Amät mhlünmtaieiki naw ngaknak am hlawhei khawi, Bawipa naw a mhlünmtai naw ni ngaknak a hlawhei. Mimät naw mimät dawkia mi ngaiha phäha am kya.
