Romans 12
1 I entreat you, then, friends, by the mercies of God, to offer your bodies as a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, for this is your rational worship.
Nga joonte loong, Rangte ih seng suh heh minchan ehan kot thoidi, ngah ih sen suh baat rumhala: Senteewah puh asak ah Rangte suh ething lakkot et koh an, heh mootkaat ah naririh kah anno heh tenroon thuk an. Erah langla amiimi lam ih soomtuujih.
2 Do not conform to the fashion of this world; but be transformed by the complete change that has come over your minds, so that you may discern what God’s will is – all that is good, acceptable, and perfect. (aiōn g165)
Mongrep hasong banlam ah nakthun an, erah nang ih bah Rangte suh senthung sentak naririh ih leksiit thuk an. Eno ba sen Rangte tenthun ah jat an—marah ese nyia epun heh tenroon theng ah. (aiōn g165)
3 In fulfillment of the charge with which I have been entrusted, I tell every one of you not to think more highly of themselves than they ought to think, but to think until they learn to think soberly – in accordance with the measure of faith that God has allotted to each.
Eno Rangte ih ngah suh uh heh tenthet lakkot ah je tungthoidi sen loong warep suh arah tiit ah baat rumhala: Sen ih sen teeteewah suh sen mamah angtheng ah, erah tokkhodoh elong nak et thiik an. Erah nang ih bah, sen tenthun ah hethaakthaak chang ih thuntheng, eno Rangte ih an suh mathan jen hanpi theng kohalu erah jun ih an teewah ah rikri theng.
4 For, just as in the human body there is a union of many parts, and each part has its own function,
Seng sak ni hephaan dowa lak alah jirep jeela, eno neng pakna rah uh hephan di mola.
5 so we, by our union in Christ, many though we are, form but one body, and individually we are related one to another as its parts.
Erah likhiik, seng ah hantek tek ang ih bah uh, Kristo mendi roop eno loongtang ah pusiit ih hoonli, eno heh sakpuh esiit ni hephan dowa roong roopli.
6 Since our gifts differ in accordance with the particular charge entrusted to us, if our gift is to preach, let our preaching correspond to our faith;
Erah raangtaan ih Rangte ih seng suh heh lakkot ah hephan dowa kohali, eno erah kohali ah heh minchan jun ih seng ih heh mootkaat nah maakkaat theng. Heh lakkot ah seng suh heh jengkhaap toombaat theng ang abah, seng ih heh mathan hanpi hi erah jun ih baat etheng;
7 if it is to minister to others, let us devote ourselves to our ministry; the teacher to their teaching,
mootkaat theng kohali bah, seng ah moh ih kaat theng; mih suh nyootsoot theng kohali bah, enyootsoot etheng;
8 the counselor to their counsel. Let the person who gives in charity do so with a generous heart; let the person who is in authority exercise due diligence; let the person who shows kindness do so in a cheerful spirit.
mih suh chaankot jengkhaap miijeng theng ang abah, ejeng etheng. O ih mih suh minchan ih kohu erah tenroon lam ih koh uh; o ngoong awang anglu ehanhan ih pakna theng; o mina ih mih suh minchan noisok hu, erah ah tenroon lam ih noisok theng.
9 Let your love be sincere. Hate the wrong; cling to the right.
Minchan ah rapne toongtang lam ih angtheng. Ethih ah chiik anno, marah ese ah kap an.
10 In the love of the community of the Lord’s followers, be affectionate to one another; in showing respect, set an example of deference to one another;
Kristo mina jun ih sen ah esiit esiit suh minchan ih tong an, eno saarookwih sen chamchi nah wasiit ih wasiit suh boichaat mui an.
11 never flagging in zeal; fervent in spirit; serving the Master;
Sen ladem laju ih sapre an. Teesu ah senthung sentak kamkam ih koh anno soomtu an.
12 rejoicing in your hope; steadfast under persecution; persevering in prayer;
Sen laalom ih tenroon toom ih thiinhan, cham anaang thok ha bah uh enaan etheng, eno saapoot rookwih sen rangsoom nah tong an.
13 relieving the wants of Christ’s people; devoted to hospitality.
Sen joonte Kristo mina suh sen hukkhaak ah chokot ih an, erah dam ih sen nok adoh wenwah ah noptong ih thuk an.
14 Bless your persecutors – bless and never curse.
Sen siiwiite raang ih, Rangte romseetam ah sukoh an—amiisak ih romseetam ah suh koh an, etam nak et an.
15 Rejoice with those who are rejoicing, and weep with those who are weeping.
O tenroon angla damdoh sen uh tenroon angtheng, o ehuung ela loong damdoh sen uh eroong huung etheng.
16 Let the same spirit of sympathy animate you all, not a spirit of pride; enjoy the company of ordinary people. Do not think too highly of yourselves.
Warep damdoh eliili ih angtheng. Sen lah ngaampo theng, erah nang ih bah toongtang lam ih reetheng. Sen teeteewah suh jatwah ih lasamthun theng.
17 Never return injury for injury. Aim at doing what everyone will recognize as honorable.
O mina sen damdoh thetreeha bah, nakmok ngaak thetre an. Warep ih ese liijih adoh re suh thuntheng.
18 If it is possible, as far as rests with you, live peaceably with everyone.
Jirep doh sen loong ah mirep damdoh semroongroong ih tongtheng.
19 Never avenge yourselves, dear friends, but make way for the wrath of God; for scripture declares – ‘“It is for me to avenge, I will requite,” says the Lord.’
Joon awaan loong, babah uh phuulek nakthun an, erah nang ih bah Rangte tenkhat ih toomjat ah. Tumeah Rangteele ni liiha, “Phulek ah Ngah ih lek ang, ngah ih ngaakthem ang, Teesu ih liiha.”
20 Rather – ‘If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him to drink. By doing this you will heap coals of fire on his head.’
Erah nang ih Rangteele ni amet liiha: “Sen puiara ah ramtek ang abah ah, phaksat ekot et an; neng khamle angla bah joong koh an; erah reeraang anno ba nengneng naang rakri rum ah.”
21 Never be conquered by evil, but conquer evil with good.
Ethih ih sen naktoom jen han; erah nang ih bah ethih ah ese lam nawa ih sen ih jen an.
