Philemon 1
1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy the brother, to Philemon our beloved friend and fellow-laborer,
Jisu Kristo thoilam di phaatak ni tongte Pool nyia seng phono Timothi taangnawa— Seng joonte seng damdi roong mootkaatte Philemoon suh,
2 and to the beloved Apphia, and to Archippus our fellow-soldier, and to the church in thy house:
nyia an nok ni chomuiti chaaste loong suh nep, adoleh seng loong no Apphia nyia sipaahi Arkippus loong suh raanghang:
3 Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Seng loong Wah Rangte nyia Teesu Jisu Kristo ih minchan toom kohan nyia semroongroong toom songtong thuk han.
4 I thank my God at all times, making mention of thee in my prayers,
Nga no Philemoon, Rangte suh lakookmi li angno, an raangtaan ih saapoot rookwet rangsoom hang
5 hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints;
Rangte mina loong raangtaan ih an minchan eje nyia Jisu su tuumaang lu ah ngah ih japchaat ehang.
6 that the fellowship of thy faith may become effectual in the knowledge of every good thing which is in us, for Christ Jesus.
Nga rangsoom ah langla seng hanpiite loong ih sen damdi rangchosoom hi thoidoh Kristo jun ih romseetam tiit ah ehanhan toom ih jat ih.
7 For we have great thankfulness and comfort on account of thy love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed by thee, brother.
Nga no, an minchan tiit asuh ngah rapne roonlang nyia chaan koh halang! Rangte mina loong ten rapne ih roonthuk lu.
8 Wherefore, though I have much boldness in Christ to enjoin upon thee that which is befitting,
Erah raangtaan ih, Kristo phoh ano jun ih, tiimjih reejih ah erah lacho laphaan ih jen baattaan etheng taha.
9 yet for love's sake I beseech thee rather; being such a one as Paul an old man, and now also a prisoner of Christ Jesus,
Enoothong an nga moongnook ang thoidi, an lasih ba johala. Ngah Pool laang ang ang bah uh, nyia Kristo mendi laang mokah ang bah uh adoleh amadi heh thoilam di phaatak ni laangtong ang bah uh, an nga moongnook ang thoidi reelang.
10 I beseech thee for my child, whom I begot in my bonds, Onesimus;
Erah raangtaan Onesimas mendi an lasih johala, heh amadi Kristo mendi nga sah miimi eh hoonla; tiimnge liidi ngah phaatak ni tong angdi chiilam laalam ni heh wah eh hoon lang.
11 who in time past was unprofitable to thee, but is now profitable to thee and to me;
Pootsiit an raangtaan ih heh tiim uh tah angta, enoothong amadi heh sek raangtaan ih ejamjih eh hoonla.
12 whom I have sent back; and do thou [[receive]] him, that is, my own flesh.
Amadi heh an reeni ngaakwang thuk halang, ngaathung ngaatak uh heh damdi.
13 Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might minister to me in the bonds of the gospel;
Ngah Ruurang Ese tungthoidi phaatak ni tonglang pootdoh, an ih chosok lakbi toom chosok hang ngeh ih nga reenah tongthuk thengtang.
14 but I chose to do nothing without thy consent, that thy benefit may be not as from necessity, but willingly.
Ang abah uh, an ih ngah chosok jaatjaat etheng ngeh ih tali kang; heh thung ih toom re ah ngeh ih li hala. Erah raangtaan ih an thung lah angko bah ngah tiim uh tami reekang.
15 For perhaps he was separated from thee for a season to this end, that thou shouldst receive him back as thine for ever; (aiōnios g166)
Onismas ah pootsiit an reenawa haloh ih hoonta ah langla an reenah saarep raangtaan toom ngaak tongha ngeh ih heh ang thamta. (aiōnios g166)
16 no longer as a bond-servant, but above a bond-servant, a brother beloved, especially to me, but how much more to thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord!
Eno amadi heh dah luulu tah angka, dah nang eju elong eh hoonla: Heh Kristo phoh ano eh hoonla. Nga raangtaan ih heh nga mongnook! Adoleh an raangtaan ih erah nang ih ju eseethoon ang ah, heh dah luulu lah angthang ih Teesu mendi phoh ano eh hoonla.
17 If thou then regardest me as a partner, receive him as myself.
Erah raangtaan ih, anjoon anwaan ngeh ih thun hang bah, ngah ban noppoon hang ah liikhiik heh uh ban noppoon ih uh.
18 And if he wronged thee in anything, or oweth thee, put that to my account.
Heh an raangtaan ih thetreeta bah nyia tiimkot jilam angta bah uh, ngah ih ngaak kottheng ngeh ih raangthiin uh.
19 I Paul have written it with my own hand, I will repay it; not to say to thee, that to me thou owest even thy own self besides.
Arah, nga teewah lak ih raangmaat halang: Ngah Pool, ngah ih ma ngaak koha. ( An nga raangtaan ih, an suh lah dopbaatjih angta.)
20 Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord; refresh my heart in Christ.
Nga no, erah raangtaan ih, Teesu mendoh nga jeng ah boichaat ih weeuh, Kristo phoh ano mendoh ngah eroon ih weethuk hang!
21 Having confidence in thy obedience I have written to thee, knowing that thou wilt do even more than I say.
Arah le ah raangmaat hangno, ngah sen suh re erum ah ngeh ih kamkam ih laalom lang—ngah ih jat ih hang erah nang ih botseh ehan reeraang pakna an.
22 And at the same time make ready a lodging for me; for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted to you.
Erah damdoh, nga tong suh rumsiit than ban khookham thiin an, tiimnge liidi Rangte ih sen loong rangsoom ah chaat eha ngeh ih laalom lang eno sen reenah engaak ih thuk hang.
23 Epaphras, my fellow-prisoner in Christ Jesus,
Jisu Kristo raangtaan ih, nga damdi phaatak ni roongtongte, Epaphras ih sen suh jengseera halan,
24 Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow-laborers, salute thee.
erah damdi nga damdi roong mootkaatte Maak, Aritarkus, Demas nyia Luk loong ih nep jengseera halan.
25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
Teesu Jisu Kristo minchan sen loongtang damdoh toom je ah.
