1 Pitar 4

1 Kristo ah hansi ni echam eta thoidoh, sen uh hansi nah cham suh emamah tenthun nah sen teenuh teewah rongkopkop ang an; mamah liidi o mina hansi ni chamla heh rangdah ni takah angka.

Christ, then, having suffered in flesh, do, ye also, with the same purpose, arm yourselves, —because, he that hath suffered in flesh, hath done with sins, —

2 Erah raangtaan ih, amah dowa ih, arah hah adoh sen roidong mathan ang ah Rangte tenthun jun ih angtheng mina tenthun jun ih lah ang ah.

To the end that, no longer, in men’s covetings, but in God’s will, ye may live, the still remaining time.

3 Jaakhoni, rangnak mih ih seechoha reerang pakna ah reekamdook ih reeraang tan. Sen loong roidong ah lalangka ni, lup aleek ni, khojok khamjok ni, sen tiimre thung angtan erah reetan, khamjok theng ni, nyia mih ih choongja theng tongmih ah soomtu tan.

For, sufficient, is the bygone time—to have wrought out, the will of the nations, having gone on in wanton ways, covetings, wine-drinkings, revellings, drinking-bouts, and impious idolatries: —

4 Aanoobah rangnak mih loong damdi erah likhiik lam ni lakah roong khoom kokan no paatja ih rumla, erah thoidi sen loong ah thaangju ih halan.

Wherein they are taken by surprise that ye run not with them into the same overflow of riotous excess, —uttering defamation:

5 Enoothong ething tekmang loongtang dandeete Rangte ah neng dande suh bantongla, neng ih maama teenuh teewah tiit ah Rangte suh ebaat etheng ang ah.

Who shall render an account unto him who is holding in readiness to judge living and dead;

6 Erah raangtaan ih tekchoi loong asuh nep Ruurang Ese tiit ah baattaan dowa, tiimnge liidi hansi ni thingtongla ah mina jun in dande suh eno Rangte thingtongla ah likhiik chiiala nah toom thingtong rum ah ngeh ih baattaan dowa.

For, unto this end, even unto the dead, was the glad-message delivered, —in order that they might be judged, indeed, according to men in flesh, but might live according to God in spirit.

7 Jirep thoon suh ethok nanah ehala. Maama teenuh teewah ah rapniine ih soksam anno rangsoom nah ban tong an.

But, the end of all things, hath drawn near: —be of sound mind, therefore, and be sober for prayers;

8 Thoontang nang ih elong ah langla, wasiit ih wasiit rapniine ih minchan theng, tiimnge liidi minchan ih rangdah hantek hoppat ha.

Before all things, keeping, fervent, your love, among yourselves, because, love, covereth a multitude of sins;

9 Laliilaangmui thang ih sen nok senpung nah emah khookham kotmui an.

Showing hospitality one to another without murmuring, —

10 Phanhoomte loong suh jirep jaatrep ni Rangte ih heh lakkot jun ih koha likhiik, wareprep ih Rangte lakkot ah mihoh ese ang raangtaan ih maak theng.

Each one, according as he hath received a gift of favour, unto one another, ministering the same, as careful stewards of the manifold favour of God:

11 O ih tiitkhaap baat ha, heh ih Rangte tiitkhaap baat theng; o suh jen sokboi theng ranglakkot koha, erah loong ah ih Rangte ih chaan koha jun ih sokboi theng, tiimnge liidi Jisu Kristo jun ih jirep adoh Rangte phoongpha thuk theng, rangka nyia chaan aphaan saarookwet heh raangtaan: Amen. (aiōn g165)

If any one speaketh, as oracles of God, if any one ministereth, as of strength which, God, supplieth, —that, in all things, God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, —unto whom are the glory and the dominion, unto the ages of ages. Amen! (aiōn g165)

12 Joon awaan loong, mabah uh lathaak cham kan ah rapne ih cham lan, erah raangtaan ih nak paatja an.

Beloved! be not held in surprise by the burning among you, which, for putting you to the proof, is befalling you, as though a, surprising, thing were happening unto you;

13 Erah nang ebah Kristo chamnaang loong ah roonghui hi ngeh ih eroon ih an, tiimnge liidi heh rangka dongjatja sen loong ah eliin roon ih an.

But, in so far as ye are taking fellowship in the Christ’s sufferings, rejoice! in order that, in the revealing of his glory also, ye may rejoice with exultation:

14 Sen loong juuba tenroon Kristo liphante ang thoidi kaanju halan bah ah; erah langla, Rangte Chiiala marah rangka theng Chiiala ah sen sak ni eje.

If ye are being reproached in the name of Christ, happy [are ye]! Because, the Spirit, of the glory, and the [Spirit] of God, unto you is bringing rest.

15 Sen loong dung dowa o chamnaang an bah uh, mitek haatte thoidoh, ehuh thoidoh, milajak, adoleh mih chamchi nah mih phaanghoom thoidoh ba naktoom ang ah.

For let, none of you, be suffering as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil-doer, or as one prying into other men’s affairs;

16 Enoothong, Kristaan mina hoonthoi doh cham anbah, nak rakrek theng, erah nang ebah Kristo thoilam di cham raangtaan ih Rangte suh lakookmi li an.

But, if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but be glorifying God in this name.

17 Phang dande saapoot ah ethok ih hala, eno Rangte mina loong ah jaakhoh dande ah. Seng phang dande heebah, liwang nah Rangte jiin nawa Ruurang Ese tiit ah lahanpiite loong ah mamah ang ah?

For it is the ripe time for the judgment to begin with the house of God; but, if first with us, what shall be the end of them who yield not unto the glad-message of God?

18 Rangteele ni liiha, “Mina ese loong ah pui suh echaan ang ah; emah ang abah rangte lajeete rangdah mina loong ah mamah ang ah?”

And, if, the righteous man, is, with difficulty, saved, where then shall, the ungodly and sinful man, appear?

19 Erah raangtaan ih, Rangte tenthun jun ih o chamnaangla, mootse kaatse mokaroh ih ano neng teenuh teewah roidong ah neng Dongsiitte suh kottheng; heh ih saarookwet heh kakham ah thiinroh eha.

So then, let, them who are even suffering, according to the will of God, unto a faithful Creator, be committing their souls, in well-doing.
