Romans 16
1 [By means of this letter] I am introducing and recommending to you our fellow believer Phoebe, [who will be taking this letter to you]. She is a deacon in the congregation in Cenchrea [city].
Kenkirih mlüh sangcim üng khut pawhki, kami ci Phobe naw ning ja ksingsak veng.
2 [I request that] you receive her because of her relationship with the Lord. [You should do that because] those who are God’s people ought to receive [their fellow believers]. [I am also requesting] that you help her [by giving her] [EUP] whatever she needs, because she has helped many people, including me.
Pamhnama khyange nami jah mceia kba Bawipaa ngming üng jah dokham ua. Kpüi vai a hlü naküt üng kpüi u. Ani cun khyang khawjah a jah püinak kba kei pi na püinaki.
3 Tell Priscilla and [her husband] Aquila that I (send greetings to/am thinking fondly of) them. They worked with me for Christ Jesus,
Atänga Khritaw Jesuha khut kami bikia Priscilah ja Akuilah na jah hnukset pe ua.
4 and they were even willing to die [IDM] in order [to save] my life. It is not only I who thank them [for helping me], but the people in all [HYP] the non-Jewish congregations also [thank them for saving my life].
Acun xawi naw ka phäha ami sak am mceh na ni. Bäki xawi tia kei däk naw ka pyenkia am kya, Khyangmjükce sangcime naw pi tikie ni.
5 Also tell the congregation [that meets] in their house that I (send my greetings to/am thinking fondly of) them. Tell my dear friend Epaenetus the same thing. He is the first man in Asia [province] who [believed] in Christ.
Ami ima ngbämkie sangcime pi na ja hnukset pe ua. Asah hnea Khritaw jumei law kcükia ka mhlänak ka püi, Ephamit pi na hnukset pet ua.
6 Tell Mary, who has worked hard [for Christ] in order to [help] you, that I (send my greetings to/am thinking fondly of) her.

7 Tell the same thing to Andronicus and [his wife] Junia (OR, and [his sister] Junia) who are my fellow Jews and who were also [previously] in prison with me. They are well-known/respected (OR, respected by the) apostles, and they became Christians before I did.
Ka mjü Judah khyang Andronikah ja Junih, thawngim üng ka jah kyumpüi xawi pi na ja hnukset pet ua; anini cun ngsä he üng ami ngming aktäa ngthangki xawia kya ni lü, keia kthaka khritaw üng ve maki xawia kyaki xawi ni.
8 I also send my greetings to Ampliatus, who is a dear friend because of his relationship with the Lord.
Ka püi, Ampalih, Bawipa üng ka ngkhawt püi cän na hnukset pe ua.
9 I also send my greetings to Urbanus, who works for Christ with us, and to my dear friend Stachys.
Khritaw üng khutbi kami bipüi Uraban ja ka mhlänaka Satakah cän na hnukset pe ua.
10 I also send my greetings to Apelles, whom Christ has approved [because Apelles successfully endured trials]. Tell the [believers] who [live in the house] of Aristobulus that I send my greetings to them.
Khritaw üng sitih cangkia Apelih cän na hnukset pet ua. Aristobuluha khyang lawng üngkae pi na jah hnukset pet ua.
11 Also tell Herodion, who is my fellow Jew, that I send my greetings to him. Tell the same thing to those who [live in the house] of Narcissus who belong to the Lord.
Ka Judah khyang püi, Erodung cän na hnukset pe ua. Nakituha khyang lawng üng Bawipa üng vekie cän na jah hnukset pet ua.
12 Tell the same thing to Tryphaena and [her sister] Tryphosa, who work hard for the Lord. I also send my greetings to Persis. [We all] love her and she has worked very hard for the Lord.
Tarupenah ja Taruphotah, Bawipa üng khüi khawiki xawi cen na ja hnukset pe u. Ka mhlänak Peratih, Bawipa üng aktä leng leng se khüiki pi na jah hnukset pet ua.
13 Tell Rufus, who is an outstanding Christian, that I send my greetings to him. [Tell the same thing to] his mother, [who has treated me as though] I [were her son] [MET].
Bawipa a jah xü Rufuh ja a nu, a na ca akba na ve püiki pi na jah hnukset pet u.
14 Tell Asyncritus and Phlegon and Hermes and Patrobas and Hermas and the fellow believers who [meet] with them that I am sending my greetings to them.
Asukrit, Phalekung, Hames, Patrobah, Hamas ja, ami veia vekie cen na jah hnukset pet ua.
15 I also send my greetings to Philologus, to [his wife] Julia (OR, [his sister] Julia), to Nereus and his sister, and to Olympas, and to all God’s people who [meet] with them.
Philolokung ja Juli, Niruh ja a na, Olampat ja ami hlawng veki Pamhnama khyange cän na jah hnukset pet ua.
16 Greet one another affectionately, but in a pure way, [when you gather together]. The [believers in] all the Christian congregations [HYP] [in this area (send their] greetings to/say they are thinking fondly of) you.
Ngcimkia hnuksetnak üng hnuksetei ua. Khritawa sangcime naküt naw ning jah hnukset ve u.
17 My fellow believers, I exhort you that you beware of those people who are causing divisions among you and who cause people to turn away [from God] [MTY] [because they teach things that] are contrary to the message [about Christ] that you have learned (OR, that others taught you). Keep away from such people!
Acunüng, ka püie aw, ngtainak pawhkie ja khyanga jumeinak helatsakie cän mceiei u lü, nami yaha mtheimthangnak ning jah hawih hlüsakie nami jah nghlat tak vaia ning jah mtheh veng.
18 They do not serve our Lord Christ! On the contrary, they only want to satisfy their own desires [MTY]! Also, by all the eloquent things that they say [DOU] they deceive those people who do not realize [that their teaching is false].
Acuna mäihe naw mi Bawipa Khritawa khutbi am bi u lü amimäta khawnua phäha khutbikie ni; khyü ktui ja mhläknak ngthu am khyang ngcime jah mhleimhlakie ni.
19 [Believers] everywhere know that you have paid attention to [the good message about Christ], with the result that I rejoice about you. But I also want you to be wise, [with the result that you do] what is good. I also want you to avoid doing what is evil.
Thangkdaw üng nami khäng cun khyang naküta vei a ngthang hüa phäh jekyai veng. Akdaw lama them u lü akse lama pi ngcim ua.
20 [If you avoid people who teach what is false], what will [soon happen] [MET] [will be as though] God, who causes us to be peaceful, will be crushing Satan under your feet! [I pray that] our Lord Jesus will continue to act kindly towards you.
Dim’yenaka phungnu Pamhnam naw Khawyam cun nami khawa keha mhnüi law khai. Mi Bawipa Jesuha bäkhäknak nami veia ve se.
21 Timothy, who works with me, and Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, who are my fellow Jews, [want you to know that they are] (sending their greetings to/thinking fondly of) you.
Ka khüipüi Timoti, Lucia, Jason, ka Judah khyang püi, Sotihpetae naw ning jah hnukset ve u.
22 I, Tertius, [one who belongs to] the Lord, [also want you to know] that I am (sending my greetings to/thinking fondly of) you. [I am writing this letter as Paul tells me what to write for him].
Hina ca yukia, kei Teratih naw, Bawipa ngming am ning jah hnukset veng.
23 I, [Paul], am staying in the house of Gaius, and the whole congregation [here meets] in his house. He [also wants you to know] that he is (sending his greetings to/thinking fondly of) you. Erastus, the treasurer of [this] city, also [wants you to know that] he is (sending his greetings to/thinking fondly of) you. Our fellow believer Quartus also (sends his greetings to you./says he is thinking fondly of you.)
Sangcimea ngkhyumnak im, na khinnaki Kajas naw ning jah hnukset ve. Mlüha khawh sämkia Eratuh ja nami na Kawtuh naw ning jah hnukset ve.
Mi Bawipa Jesuh Khritawa bäkhäknak nami khana ve se. Amen.
25 As [I] proclaim [the good message about] Jesus Christ, [I tell about God], the one who is able to strengthen you [spiritually]. I also proclaim the [truth] that was not revealed {which [God] did not reveal} in all previous ages/times (aiōnios g166)
Pamhnam üng hlüngtainak ve se! Ani naw nami jumeinak ning jah khängsak khawhki ni, acuna thangkdaw cun keia sang Jesuh Khritawa mawng, ajana kcün üng ngthup khawikia ngthungtak mdannak ni. (aiōnios g166)
26 but which has now been {which [he] has now} revealed. [I, along with others, have proclaimed] what the prophets wrote [about Christ]. We are doing what the eternal God commanded [us(exc)/me to do]. We want [people in] all ethnic groups to know [Christ] so that they can believe [in him] and obey [him]. (aiōnios g166)
Sahmaea cauke naw ngthungtak cun angsinga mdan law lü angläta xüngki Pamhnama ngthupet üngkhyüha khyangmjü naküta veia jah ksingsak lü avan naw jum lü ami kcangnak vaia phäh ni. (aiōnios g166)
