1 Corinthians 16
1 Now, concerning the collection which is for the saints, just as I directed the assemblies of Galatia, so, also do, ye: —
Judah khyawnga veki Pamhnama khyange jah kpüinak vaia ngui nami ngcawna mawng nami yuk lawki. Kalatih mlüha sangcime ka jah mtheha mäiha, nangmi naw pi pawh hnga ua.
2 Upon the first of the week, let, each one of you, put, by itself, in store, as he may be prospering, —lest, as soon as I come, then, collections, should be in progress.
Ka law üng petmsawtnak am ve khaia ngpum mhnüp naküt üng nami khawhthem üngka lo u lü a na mcun ua.
3 And, as soon as I arrive, whomsoever ye shall approve by letters, these, will I send, to bear away your favour unto Jerusalem:
Ngcawn cehpüi khaia nami jah xüa khyangea veia, ka law käna kcae jah pe lü, nami ngcawn cehpüi khaiea Jerusalema ka jah tüi khai.
4 And, if it be meet that, I also, be journeying, with me, shall they journey.
Acunüng, kamät ka cit khaia akyak üng pi, ka hlawnga cit hnga khaie.
5 Now I will come unto you, as soon as I have passed through Macedonia, —for I do pass through Macedonia,
Acunüng, Maketawniha mlüha ka cit piling khaia kyase, Maketawniha mlüha ka ceh käna nami veia ka law khai;
6 And, with you, I may perhaps sojourn, or winter, that, ye, may set me forward, whithersoever I may be journeying.
Akcea ka ceh üng nami na tha khaia nami veia law lü, khawksik khya üng ta nami hlawnga ka ve hman khai.
7 For I do not wish to see you, just now, by the way; for I hope to remain, some time, with you, —if, the Lord, permit.
Law sawxat am ni, ning jah hmuh hlü veng, Bawipa naw a dawsak üng nami hlawnga khawvei ka ve khaia ka büki ni.
8 But I remain in Ephesus, until the Pentecost,
Acunsepi, Pentikos mhnüp veia Ephet mlüha ka ve khai,
9 For, a door, unto me, hath opened, great and effectual, and, opposers, are many.
acua bilawh vai ka phäha akdaw vekia kyase ni. Acua am na hmu hlüki pi dakie.
10 But, if Timothy should come, see that, without fear, he be with you, for, in the work of the Lord, doth he labour, even as, I:
Timoti nami veia a law üng akdaw ana dokham ua. Ani cun pi keia kba Bawipa khutbi biki ni.
11 Let no one then despise him; and set ye him forward in peace, that he may come unto me, for I expect him with the brethren.
Acunakyase, u naw pi käh hmumsit lü, ka veia a lawnak thei vaia dim’yenak am tha law ua; jumeikie mah mah ka veia law be khaia ka äpeiki.
12 But, concerning Apollos the brother, much, did I beseech him, that he would come unto you, with the brethren, but there was, by no means, any will, that he should come, now; —he will come, however, as soon as he hath good opportunity.
Mi bena Apawluh cun jumeikie am atänga nami veia kdung law khaia ka nghuinak te tukbäih a law vai am yü ham ve; akha law üng law khai ni.
13 Be on the watch, stand firm in the faith, be men—be strong;
Ngsüngcei lü k'äih u, jumnak üng khängcek u, lingnak am kyan u lü ve u.
14 Let, all your affairs, in love, be carried on.
Avan cän Mhläkphyanak am bilo u.
15 Now I beseech you, brethren, —ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is a first-fruit of Achaia, and, for the purpose of ministering, they devoted themselves, unto the saints—
Stephena kyawnglawng cun nami jah ksingki, amimi cun Akaijah hnea jumei law kcük u lü, Pamhnama khyang ngcime jah khüih petkie ni. Ka püie ning jah nghui na veng,
16 That, ye also, be submitting yourselves unto such as these, —and unto everyone helping in the work and toiling.
acuna khawngmange cun jah läk ua, ami am atänga khutbi ua.
17 I Rejoice, moreover, in the presence of Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus: because, your own shortcoming, these, have filled up: —
Acunüng, Stephen, Photunat ja Akaikas ami law hin je veng; am nami ve pi am ka ksing khaia na pawh ve u.
18 They have given rest, in fact, unto my spirit, and yours: hold in acknowledgment, therefore, such as these.
Amimi naw kei ami na jesaka kba nangmi naw pi nami na jesaki, acunakyase, ahina mäihe cän jah ümnak ni.
19 The assemblies of Asia salute you: Aquila and Priscilla, with the assembly meeting at their house, salute you much in the Lord:
Asah hne sangcime naw ning jah hnukset ve u. Akuilah jah Priscilah ima veki sangcime naw pi Bawipa ngming üng ning jah hnukset ve u.
20 All the brethren salute you: —Salute ye one another with a holy kiss.
Jumeikie naküt naw ning jah hnukset ve u. Dimyenaka mhnamnak am nghnuksetei ua.
21 The salutation of Paul—with my own hand.
Kei Pawluh naw kamäta kut am yu lü ning jah nghnukset veng.
22 If anyone doth not dearly love the Lord, let him be anathema [that is, "accursed"]: Maran atha [that is, "The Lord, cometh"].
Au pi Bawipa am mhlänaki ta yüncenak yah khai! Maranatha — Kami Bawipa, lawa!
23 The favour of the Lord Jesus, be with you.
Bawipa Jesuh Khritawa bäkhäknak nami khana ve se.
24 My love, be with you all, in Christ Jesus.
Jesuh Khritaw üng nami vana khana ka mhlänak ve se.
