1 Peter 3
1 In like manner, ye wives, —submitting yourselves unto your own husbands; in order that, if any are not yielding unto the word, through their wives behaviour, they may, without the word, be won,
Erah likhiik hesanuh loong ah hesawah loong lakhui nah ang theng, tiimnge liidoh hesawah ih Rangte jengkhaap lahanpi kaadoh, hesanuh sen loong reeraang jun ih toom hanpi rum asuh ah. Sen ih jengkhaap labaat kanbah uh ese ang ah,
2 Having been permitted to behold your reverently chaste behaviour, —
tiimnge liidi sen reeraang pakna loong ah tiimthan esa nyia mih ih choomjoot theng reete ngeh ih neng ih tup ih ah.
3 Whose adorning, let it be—not the outward, of plaiting the hair and wearing golden ornaments, or putting on of apparel,
Sen loong ah rangwuuthak nah jaase toom ang ang ngeh ih lah choomchaak theng, khoroon ah jaaseehoom, adoleh hun akom ah pok, adoleh nyuse khatmi ah kap.
4 But the hidden character, of the heart, —in the incorruptible [ornament] of the quiet, and meek, spirit, which is, in presence of God, of great price.
Erah nang ebah, senten senmong nawa ih jaase ang theng, Rangte miksok di bah tenthun ni nyia chiiala ni semroongroong angte loong aba saarookwet raangtaan ih toongtang angla ah elongthoon.
5 For, so, at one time, the holy women also, who directed their hope towards God, used to adorn themselves, being in submission unto their own husbands:
Tiimnge liidi, teewah di thooroom minuh loong ah, o Rangte suh laalomte angta, erah loong ah neng sawah lakhui ni songtong rum anno neng teeteenuh jaase thuk rumta.
6 As, Sarah, was obedient unto Abraham, calling him, lord, —whose children ye have become—so long as ye are doing good, and not bringing yourselves into fear of any single cause of alarm.
Sara ah emamah angta; heh Abraham jeng chaatchaat ih ano heh sawah suh nga changte ngeh ih liita. Amadi sen loong ah tiimra uh lacho laphaan ih epun ah reelan bah minuh sen loong ah hesuh hesah ih hoon lan.
7 Ye husbands, in like manner, dwelling with them according to knowledge, —as unto a weaker vessel, unto the female [vessel], assigning honour, as joint—inheritors also of life’s favour, —to the end that unhindered may be, your prayers.
Erah likhiikkhiik hesawah sen loong ah ih sen sanuh damdoh seklilih ih songtong an, neng loong ah sen nang ih tajatka. Neng loong ah choomjoot ih an, tiimnge liidoh, Rangte lakkot roidong ah sen damdam roong choha. Sen rangsoom rangtu ah laphaangjaang suh emamah re an.
8 And, finally, all, being of one mind, having fellow—feeling, attached to the brethren, of tender affection, of lowly mind:
Jengthoon ah langla: Sen loongtang thung atak nyia tenthun phoosiit ang theng; sen jaachi nah minchanmui etheng, nyia wasiit ih wasiit minchan etheng.
9 Not returning evil for evil, nor reviling for reviling, but, on the contrary, bestowing a blessing, —because, hereunto, have ye been called, in order that, a blessing, ye might inherit.
Mih ethih angha bah uh ethih nakngaak angtheng adoleh mih ih tamho bah uh langaak tam theng; erah nang ebah romse ngaaktam koh an, tiimnge liidoh Rangte ih poon tahan adoh romseetam kot suh kakhamta.
10 For, he that desireth to love, life, and to see good days, Let him cause his tongue to cease from mischief, and lips, that they speak not deceit;
Rangteele ni amah liiha, Sen loong ah roidong doh tenroon angsuh li anbah nyia saapootse ah japtup suh li anbah, sen loong ah ethih ekhah lajaatjaat jeng theng adoleh tiit hu baat ah etoihaat etheng.
11 Let him turn away from mischief, and do good, Let him seek peace, and pursue it;
Sen loong ah ethih ekhah reelan ah toihaat anno ese ah re theng senten senmong ih jam anno semroongroong tongtha suh laat an.
12 Because, the eyes of the Lord, are towards the righteous, and his ears, unto their supplication, —Whereas, the face of the Lord, is against them that are doing mischievous things.
Tiimnge liidi Teesu ih thooroom minah ah sokboi roh eha nyia neng rangsoom ah chaat ha; enoothong ethih reete ah tase choka.”
13 Who, then, is he that shall harm you, if, for that which is good, ye become zealous?
Marah ese ah reeraang suh ram anbah o ih jen thet haat han?
14 Nevertheless, even if ye should suffer for righteousness’ sake, happy [are ye]! Their fear, however, do not fear, neither be troubled;
Marah epun ah erah reeraang thoidoh chamnaang andoh botseh sen loong ah tiimthan tenroon ang an! Sen loong ah o ra uh nakcho an, adoleh naksootsaam an.
15 But, the Lord Christ, hallow ye in your hearts, ready always for a defence, unto every one that is asking you a reason concerning, the hope within you, —nevertheless, with meekness and reverence:
Enoothong sen ten nah Kristo ah choomjoh roh ih an, nyia Teesu ngeh ih choomjoroh etheng. Sen laalom tiit ah mih ih cheng handoh ngaakbaat suh saarookwet banban ih tong an,
16 Having, a good conscience, in order that, wherein they speak against you, they may be put to shame who cast wanton insult on, your good behaviour in Christ.
enoothong choomjoot damdoh seklilih ih baattaan theng. Senthung sentak ah seklilih ang an, mamah liidi sen Kristo liphan tungthoidoh o ih an reeraang suh ethih li ah, neng loong ah neng jeng suh rakrek thuk theng.
17 For it is, better, as well-doers, if it should please the pleasure of God, to be suffering, than, as evil-doers:
Tiimnge liidi ethih reeraang nang ebah, ese reeraang thoidoh chamnaang kibah eseethoon ang ah Rangte thung angkabah ah.
18 Because, Christ also, once for all, concerning sins, died, —Just in behalf of unjust, —in order that he might introduce us unto God; being put to death, indeed, in flesh, but made alive in spirit, —
Mamah liidi rangdah mina sen raangtaan ih Kristo ah jaasiit di roop tiita, heh teewah mina ah ese angta erabah uh sen loong ah Rangte reenah thoksiit suh loongtang rangdah raangtaan ih roop tiita. Kristo ah hansi ni etek haat eta, enoothong chiiala ni ething tongthukla,
19 In which, even unto the spirits in prison, he went and proclaimed, —
eno chiiala ni thingtong tungkaangdi chiiala tangsak ha loong suh baattaan kata.
20 [Spirits] unyielding at one time, when the longsuffering of God was holding forth a welcome in the days of Noah, there being in preparation an ark—[going] into which, a few, that is eight, souls, were brought safely through by means of water, —
Erah langla, Noah ih khoonkhu hoonta doh Rangte ih bansokroh lek ih koleh heh jeng laboichaatte loong ah chiiala loong angta. Khoonkhu adi mina ehan tah angta—rooproop ih asat ang rumta—ju nawa neng ba pui rumta,
21 Which [water] in manner corresponding, doth, now, save, you also—even immersion, —not a putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the request unto God, for a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, —
erah langla, amadi puipang halan juutem sin angta. Erah sak nawa esot saachot tiit tah angka, thung atak ese nawa ih Rangte damdi kakham tiit. Jisu Kristo ngaaksaat jun ih erah ih puipangha,
22 Who is on the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, messengers and authorities and powers, having been made subject unto him.
o rangmong ni wang ano Rangte reeni dakmi ko tongwangla, rangmong dowa rangsah loong, ngoong awang nyia chaan aphaan loong ah heh ih panha.
A Dove is Sent Forth from the Ark
