1 Thessalonians 3
1 As a result of that, when I could no longer endure [worrying about you], I decided that [Silas and I] would stay behind alone in Athens [city],
Akonbada, eikhoina makha tana khaangba ngamdrabada, eikhoi khakta Athens-ta leihoubana phagani haina eikhoina leple.
2 and we two sent Timothy [to you. You know that he is] our close associate and also works for God by [proclaiming] the message about Christ. [Silas and I sent him] in order that he would urge you to continue to strongly trust [in Christ].
Aduna Christtagi Aphaba Pao sandokpada eikhoiga loinana Tengban Mapugi thougal touminnaba ichil inao Timothy-bu nakhoigi thajaba adu kankhat-hannaba amadi thougatnaba eikhoina thare.
3 We wanted none [of you] to consider turning away from Christ as a result of [people] causing you to suffer. You know that [God has] planned that [we who trust in him will suffer like that when people do that to us who trust in him].
Madu nakhoi kana amatana ot neiba adugi maramna mai leithoktanabani. Asigumba awa anangsing asi eikhoigidamak Tengban Mapugi aningbagi saruk amani haiba nakhoi nasamaknasu khang-i.
4 Remember that when we were present with you, we kept telling you that we would be persecuted {that [people] would cause us to suffer}. And because that is what happened, you know that [what we said] was true!
Maramdi eikhoina nakhoiga leiminnaringei matamda, eikhoibu ot-neigadouri haibasi eikhoina nakhoida mangajounana haikhre; aduga madumak thoklare haiba adu nakhoinasu khanglibadu mangai.
5 [I was] afraid that [Satan], the one who tempts us, had caused you [to stop trusting in Christ. If that had happened], we would have worked uselessly [while we were present with you! So] I sent [Timothy to you] in order to find out whether or not you were [still] trusting [in Christ]. I sent him because I could no longer endure [not knowing (about your spiritual condition/whether or not you were still trusting in Christ]).
Maram adugidamak, eina makha tathana khaangba ngamdrabada, eina nakhoigi thajabagi maramda khangnanaba Timothy-bu thakhibani. Maramdi athemba mapu aduna karigumba upai ama touduna nakhoibu themdoklamgadra aduga eikhoigi nomjaba pumnamak aremba taragadra haina eina kirammi.
6 Now Timothy has just returned to Silas and me from [being with] you, and he has told us the good news that you [still] trust [in Christ] and that you love [him] (OR, [each other]). He told us also that you always happily remember us [and that] you strongly desire that we visit you, just like we strongly desire to visit you.
Adubu houjik Timothy-na nakhoigi naphamdagi hallaktuna nakhoigi thajaba amasung nungsibagi maramda nungaiba pao purakle. Aduga matam pumnamakta nakhoina eikhoibu ningsingbi amasung eikhoina nakhoibu yamna uningba adugumna nakhoinasu eikhoibu uningngi haina mahakna eikhoida tamlare.
7 My fellow believers, [even though] we are suffering very much [DOU] because of what people are doing to us here, we have been cheered up because [Timothy told us about] your [still] trusting [in Christ].
Maram aduna ichil inaosa, nakhoigi thajaba adugi maramna nakhoina eikhoigi awa ana amadi otpi neibiba pumnamakta eikhoibu pukning thougatpire.
8 Now we feel very encouraged [IDM] that you continue to strongly [trust] in the Lord [Jesus].
Maramdi nakhoina Ibungoda chetna leppagi maramna houjikti eikhoi tasengna hingli.
9 (We cannot thank God adequately for [what he has done for] you!/How can we thank God enough for [what he has done for] you?) [RHQ] We greatly rejoice concerning you [when we pray to] our God!
Houjik nakhoigidamak eikhoina eikhoigi Tengban Mapubu thagatchaba ngamjare. Nakhoigi maramna Tengban Mapugi mangda eikhoina phangjariba harao nungaibasing asigidamak Ibungo mahakpu eikhoina thagatchei.
10 We constantly [HYP] and fervently/earnestly ask [God] that [we will be able] to visit you [SYN] and that [we will be able] to help you to trust [in Christ/God] more strongly!
Eikoina nakhoibu amuk hanna ujanaba amadi nakhoigi thajabada awatpa leiriba adu menkhatnaba Tengban Mapugi maphamda ahing nungthil naidana pukning changna Tengban da haijari.
11 We pray to God, our Father, and to our Lord Jesus, that they will (clear the way/make it possible) so that we can return to you.
Eikhoigi Tengban Mapu, Ipa masamakna amasung eikhoigi Ibungo Jisuna nakhoigi nanakta eikhoina laknabagi lambi ama thourangbiba oisanu.
12 As for you, we pray that the Lord Jesus will help you to love each other and other people more and more, just like we continue loving you more and more.
Eikhoina nakhoibu nungsibagunmna Ibungona nakhoi amaga amagagi marakta amadi mi pumnamakta nakhoigi nungsiba adu hen-gat-hanbisanu amadi pathok-hanbisanu.
13 We pray that our Lord Jesus will strengthen your resolve to do what pleases God (OR, strengthen you spiritually). We pray that God our Father will enable you to conduct your lives in a way that is pure and that no one can justly criticize, so that when Jesus comes back to earth accompanied by all those who belong to him, he will be pleased with you.
Asumna eikhoigi Ibungo Jisuna mahakki asengba mi pumnamakka loinana lenglakpa matamda eikhoigi Tengban Mapu amasung Ipagi mangda nakhoina mapung phana ayol aran leitaba amasung asengba oinanaba Ibungo mahakna nakhoibu panggal kankhat-hanbigani.
