Galatians 5
1 With freedom did Christ set us free: stand fast therefore, and be not entangled again in a yoke of bondage.
Lätnak mi taki. Khritaw naw jah lätsaki! Khyang kläta mäiha ngdüitho u. Namimät m'yaa ä ngpawhei be ua.
2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that, if ye receive circumcision, Christ will profit you nothing.
Kei Pawluh naw nami veia pyen veng, ngai ua: nami vun nami mawih üng nami phäha Khritaw amdanga kya khai.
3 Yea, I testify again to every man that receiveth circumcision, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
A vun mawi khaia büki cun Thum avan läk khaia leimah ve tia ning jah mtheh veng.
4 Ye are severed from Christ, ye who would be justified by the law; ye are fallen away from grace.
Thum läknak am Pamhnama veia ngsungpyun khaia nami büki naw Khritaw nami thuknaki ni. Pamhnama bäkhäknaka kpunga nami awmki ni.
5 For we through the Spirit by faith wait for the hope of righteousness.
Keimia äpnak ta Pamhnam naw amäta veia jah ngsungpyun sak khai tia kya ve. Ahin ni Pamhnama Ngmüimkhya johit naw kami jumnak üng a bilawh kami ngängeia akya ve.
6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith working through love.
Khritaw Jesuh üng vun mawih la vun am mawih hngalangnak am ve. Jawng'engnak üngka pawhmsaha jumeinak ni aktunga akya vei.
7 Ye were running well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?
Akyäpa nami pawhki cen! U naw ngthungtak nami läknak üng a ning jah pyaisak ni? Ihawkba a ning jah kdäk ni?
8 This persuasion [came] not of him that calleth you.
Ahin hin ning jah khüki Pamhnama pawha am kya.
9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
“Kcaw ajawca naw buh avan thawhsak theiki” ami tia kba.
10 I have confidence to you-ward in the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.
Atuh vei cäpa ka ning jah mkhü üpnaki. Nami cungaihnak ä hngalang se. Nami mlung ning jah uplatsakia khyang naküt pi Pamhnam naw mkhuimkha be khai tia mi Bawipa jumeinak üng mkhü üpnak ka taki.
11 But I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? then hath the stumblingblock of the cross been done away.
Ka püi he aw, vun mawih vai hlüki tia mawng ngthu ka sang laih laihkia akya üng ise mkhuimkhaa ka kyaki ni? Acun he hmankia akya üng Khritawa kutlamktung ka sang naw khuikhanak i am pawh.
12 I would that they which unsettle you would even cut themselves off.
Ning jah uplatsaki he naw ami vun mawih däng ä khäk lü ami kte pi ami kphyet vai täng veng.
13 For ye, brethren, were called for freedom; only [use] not your freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through love be servants one to another.
Ka püi he aw, nami lät khaia ning jah khüa nami kyaki. Cunsepi nami läta phäha nami pumsa hlükawnak naw ä ning jah näng se. Acuna kthaka ta jawng'engnak am nami püi mcei ua.
14 For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, [even] in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
“Namät na jawngnaka mäiha na impei loceng na jawngnak vai” tia ngthupet mat naw Thum naküt kümsaki.
15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.
Cunsepi sakyung hea kba mat la mat mhlem kyu u lü ngtun u lü nami ve vai mcei ua, mät naw mät nami kpyehei khai ni.
16 But I say, Walk by the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
Acunakyase ahikba pyen veng: nghngicim ngneiksak üng am nami yängsä khaia Ngmüimkhya naw nami xünnake lam ning jah msüm kawm.
17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary the one to the other; that ye may not do the things that ye would.
Mi nghngicim ngneiksak naw Ngmüimkhya ngneisak ä ngja hlü se, Ngmüimkhya ngneiksak naw pi mi nghngicim ngneiksak ä ngja hlüki. Ahin xawi cun ye xawi ni. Acunakyase namäta ngjak hlü ä na bi theiki.
18 But if ye are led by the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
Ngmüimkhya naw a ning jah ngkhahpüi üng Thuma keha am nami awmki ni.
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these], fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
Nghngicim ngneiksaka bilawh cun ngdangki. Acun he cun hüipawmnak, phyawksaknak, am dawkia ngneiksak,
20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousies, wraths, factions, divisions, heresies,
Juktuh sawkkhahnake la tuiyaia luhvangnake ni. Khyang he nghneng lawki he, ng’eihei lawki he, ami mlung thüi lawki, ngnütei lawki he. Ngpai law u lü ngtai lawki he;
21 envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that they which practise such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
hnaihei law kyu peki he, ju aw ngenki he, hlimtui ngen u lü akce he pi jah pawhki he. Ajana ka ning jah mtheha kba atuh pi ning jah mtheh be tü veng: Ahin he jah tiki naw Pamhnama Khaw am ka na.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
Cunsepi Ngmüimkhya naw jawngnak, jekyainak, dim’yenak, mlung saünak, bänak, dawnak, sitihnak,
23 meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
mlung hnemnak, mät la mät ngxungei kyunake cun jah ngtheipai lawsaki. Acun he jah kpetkia Thum am ve.
24 And they that are of Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts thereof.
Khritaw Jesuha khyang he naw ami nghngicim ngneiksaka mtisa hlükawnak naküt cun jah thihsak pängki he ni.
25 If we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also walk.
Ngmüimkhya naw xünak jah pe pängki; ani naw mi xünake pi jah ngkhahpüi khai.
26 Let us not be vainglorious, provoking one another, envying one another.
Am mi awhcah u lü, mat la mat ä mi ngsähna lü, mat la mat ä mi ng’eih kawm.
