1 Timothy 2
1 I exhort, then, first of all, there be made supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, for all men:
To pongah, hmaloe koekah, kaminawk boih han lawkthui paeh; nihcae han hni paeh, lawkthui paeh, kawnhaih lok to thui paeh;
2 for kings, and all who are in authority, that a quiet and peaceable life we may lead in all piety and gravity,
Sithaw a bok o moe, pakoeh o thaih han hoi monghaih hoi kamding rue ah kho a sak o thai hanah, siangpahrangnawk hoi ukhaih akaa tawn kaminawk boih hanah lawkthui paeh.
3 for this [is] right and acceptable before God our Saviour,
Hae tiah lawkthuihaih loe aicae pahlongkung Sithaw mikhnuk ah tapom thai koi kahoih hmuen ah oh;
4 who doth will all men to be saved, and to come to the full knowledge of the truth;
kaminawk boih to pahlong moe, loktang lok panoeksakhaih loe anih koehhaih ah oh.
5 for one [is] God, one also [is] mediator of God and of men, the man Christ Jesus,
Sithaw maeto khue oh moe, Sithaw hoi kami salakah Laicaeh maeto khue ni oh, to Kami loe Kri Jesu to ni;
6 who did give himself a ransom for all — the testimony in its own times —
Anih loe kami boih akrang hanah, atue akoep naah amtueng moe, angmah hoi angmah to angpaek.
7 in regard to which I was set a preacher and apostle — truth I say in Christ, I do not lie — a teacher of nations, in faith and truth.
To pongah ni kai hae tamthanglok taphong kami hoi patoeh ih kami ah ang suek, (Kri ah loktang ni ka thuih, lok kamlai ai; ) tanghaih hoi loktang lok taphong hanah Gentelnawk patukkung ah ang suek.
8 I wish, therefore, that men pray in every place, lifting up kind hands, apart from anger and reasoning;
To pongah nongpanawk mah kaciim ban to payangh moe, palungphuihaih hoi palunghaenghaih om ai ah, ahmuen kruekah lawkthuih o han ka koeh haih.
9 in like manner also the women, in becoming apparel, with modesty and sobriety to adorn themselves, not in braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or garments of great price,
To baktih toengah nongpatanawk mah doeh, khet kahoih ah amthoep moe, khet kamcuk khukbuen to angkhuk o han oh, sampakhui han om ai, sui bungmu doeh, atho kana pale doeh, atho kana khukbuennawk hoiah doeh amthoep o han om ai,
10 but — which becometh women professing godly piety — through good works.
toe (Sithaw koehhaih baktiah khosah nongpatanawk loe) kahoih toksakhaih hoiah amthoep o han o.
11 Let a woman in quietness learn in all subjection,
Nongpata loe ukhaih tlim ah khosah nasoe loe, lokpunghaih om ai ah amtuk nasoe.
12 and a woman I do not suffer to teach, nor to rule a husband, but to be in quietness,
Toe nongpata mah patuk moe, nongpa nuiah sakthaihaih akaa tawnh hanah ka koeh haih ai, anih loe anghngai duem han oh.
13 for Adam was first formed, then Eve,
Adam sak pacoengah ni Evi to sak vop.
14 and Adam was not deceived, but the woman, having been deceived, into transgression came,
Adam loe pacuek ah om ai, nongpata loe pacuek ah oh moe, zaehaih thungah amtimh.
15 and she shall be saved through the child-bearing, if they remain in faith, and love, and sanctification, with sobriety.
Toe nongpata loe tanghaih, amlunghaih, ciimcaihaih hoi tuinuen angsumhaih bangah cak poe nahaeloe, ca tapenhaih kana pauephaih thung hoiah pahlonghaih hnu o tih.
