Romans 4
1 What then shall we say concerning Abraham the patriarch, that by the flesh he obtained?
Mihem lam dol a sei dingin Abraham chu Juda mite tahsan phutdohpa ahi. Pathen toh kilungto theina dinga ipi ahinbol doh em?
2 But if Abraham was justified by works, he had ground of glorying; yet not before God.
Athilpha bol chun Pathen santhei asodoh sah a ahileh, aman kisonpi ding ananei ding ahitai. Hinla, hichu Pathen lama dingin ahitheipoi.
3 For what saith the scripture? That Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
Ajeh chu Pathen thubun, “Abraham'in Pathen atahsan'in, chule hiche atahsanna jeh chun Pathen in michonphan asimtai!” tin eiseipeh uve.
4 But to him that worketh, the reward is not reckoned as of grace, but as a debt to him.
Mihon na atoh tenguleh anatoh man'u chu thilpeh akitipoi, amahon akilodoh-u ahijoi.
5 Whereas, to him that worketh not, but only believeth in him that justifieth sinners, his faith is accounted to him for righteousness.
Hinlah miho michonphaa kisim ho chu, anatoh jal'u hilouvin, michonse ho ngaidampa Pathen atahsan jal'u ahibouve.
6 As David also speaketh of the blessedness of the man, to whom God reckoneth righteousness without works,
David'in jong michonpha tia kiphongdoh ho chu natoh jal jeh ahilou thudol ana seijin ahi.
7 saying: Blessed are they, whose iniquity is forgiven, and whose sins are covered up:
“O seingailou ahinauva kingaidama, achonset-u mukit loudia kisuhbeipeh ho chu iti kipa um hitam!
8 and, Blessed is the man, to whom God will not reckon his sin.
Ahinai, achungchang thu'u Pakaiyin achonsetnau jih lutsa akoi noimang peh'a um michu iti kipa um hitam!” ati.
9 This blessedness, therefore, is it on the circumcision? or on the uncircumcision? For we say, that Abraham's faith was reckoned to him for righteousness.
Tua hi Judah mite dinga bou phatthei channa ham? Ahilouleh chidang namdang cheptanlou ho dinga jong hiya ham? Ahinai, eihon jong Abraham chu atahsan jal'a Pathen'in themchang a anakoi ahitai, ti inasei jiuvin ahi.
10 How then was it reckoned to him? In circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.
Ahin, hichu iti hung hithei'ah ahidem? Ama chep kitan jouva bou themchang hiya ham? Ahilouleh cheptan masang joh ham? Chentah a seiding in, Abraham chu Pathen in cheptan masanga analah ahitai.
11 For he received circumcision, as the sign and the seal of the righteousness of his faith while in uncircumcision: that he might become the father of all them of the uncircumcision who believe; and that it might be reckoned to them also for righteousness:
Cheptan hi Abraham'in tahsan aneiye ti amelchihna ahi. Chule Pathen in ama chu michonpha tia asan'a chule aphondohna chu cheptan masangpeh ahitai. Hijeh'a hi, Abraham hi cheptanlou atahsanho dinga apau ahi. Atahsan nau jeh a chu amaho michonpha tia kisima ahitauve.
12 and the father of the circumcision; not to them only who are of the circumcision, but to them also who fulfill the steps of the faith of our father Abraham in his uncircumcision.
Chule Abraham hi cheptan ho dinga jong lhagaova apau ahi. Hinla hiche hi Abraham cheptan masanga tahsan anei tobanga tahsan neihoa ding bou ahi.
13 For the promise to Abraham and to his seed, that he should become the heir of the world, was not by the law, but by the righteousness of his faith.
Tahbeh mongin, Pathen in vannoi pumpi hi Abraham le achilhahte apeh ahin, hichu Pathen Danthu ajui jeh-u ahipon, chusanga tahsan jal'a kijopmatna phatah anei jaljoh ahi.
14 For if they who are of the law were heirs, faith would be made void, and the promise of no force.
Pathen Thutep hi danthu juihoa dinga bou hitaleh, tahsan ngaitalou ding ahi. Chule thutep hi ajeh bei hiding ahitai.
15 For the law is a worker of wrath; because where no law is, there is no transgression of law.
Ajeh chu Danthu hin athupeh ho jui dinga gimbolna jengbou ahin lhut ding ahi (Dan suhkeh louna dingin lampi khat bou aum'in, hichu Dan neitah lou ding chu ahije).
16 Wherefore, it is by the faith which is by grace, that we are justified: so that the promise may be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but also to that which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all:
Chutia chu, thutep hi tahsan jal'a kimu'ah ahin, manbei thilpeh-akipea chu ahi. Abraham tahsan tobang inei uva ahileh Mose Dan ijuiyu hihen, ijuilouvu hijongleh eihon ibon'uva imu teidiu ahi. Ajeh chu Abraham chu atahsan jousea dinga pa ahi.
17 as it is written: " I have constituted thee a father to a multitude of nations;" namely before God, in whom thou hast believed; who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which are not, as if they were.
Hiche hi ahi Pathen Lekhabun asei, “Keiman nangma namtin mipa a kasem nahitai” tia Pathen in ajah a anasei chu. Hiche ahitheina chu Abraham'in Pathen atahsan'a athisa hinsahkitna chule imacha louva kona thil thah asemdoh thei tahsan na jeh ahi.
18 And without hope, he confided in the hope of becoming the father of a multitude of nations; (as it is written: So will thy seed be.)
Kinepna ding umlouna jenga jong Abraham chu akinem jingin, ama namtin dinga Pa ahung hiding tahsanna aneiyin ahi. Ajehchu Pathen in ajah a, “Chutia a chu son le chilhah tampi nahin neiding ahi,” atipeh ahi.
19 And he was not sickly in his faith, while contemplating his inert body, (for he was a hundred years old, ) and the inert womb of Sarah.
Chule Abraham chu kum 100 nailam ahi jengin jong hitia atahsa chu athi tobang ahitah vang'in, chule Sarah naobu jong chu avoitah vang'in, atahsan chu adai lhadehpon ahi.
20 And he did not hesitate at the promise of God, as one lacking faith; but he was strong in faith, and gave glory to God;
Abraham chun Pathen thutep longlouvin atahsan'in ahi. Tahbeh in atahsanna chu ahatcheh in chule hichea chun Pathen loupina apen ahi.
21 and felt assured, that what God had promised to him, he was able to fulfill.
Pathen chun akitepna ipi hijongleh aboldoh ding ahi ti hetchetna kicheh aneiye.
22 And therefore it was accounted to him for righteousness.
Chule Abraham chu atahsan jal'a Pathen'in michonpha tia asem ahitai.
23 And not for his sake alone, was it written, that his faith was accounted for righteousness;
Chutia Pathen in ama michonphaa asem chu Abraham dinga bou phachoma ahipoi. Eiho phatchompi dinga jong kijih a ahi.
24 but for our sakes also; because it is to be accounted so to us, who believe in him that raised our Lord Jesus Messiah from the dead;
I-Pakaiyu Yeshua thinaa kona kaithoupa chu itahsan uva ahileh Pathen in eiho jong michonpha'a eisem dingu ahi, ti hetchetna eipeuve.
25 who was delivered up, on account of our sins; and arose, that he might justify us.
Ichonset jeh uva Ama chu thi dinga pehdoh a uma ahin, chule hinna a Ama kaithouva aum hin Pathen to eisuhcham'u ahitai.
