1 Joon awaan loong, sen teeteewah ih ejat ehan, seng sen jiinni raatahe ah thaangmuh tah angta eah.
For you yourselves know, brothers, our visit to you was not in vain,
2 Sen ih ejat ehan Thesoloni ni sen jiinni maang raari di Philipi ni seng mamet kaanju tahe nyia mame thetre rumta rah ah. Erathan edaante taatje adi uh, seng Rangte ih sen suh heh jiin nawa Ruurang Ese ah baat suh heh chaan kotahe.
but having suffered before and been shamefully treated, as you know, at Philippi, we grew bold in our God to tell you the Good News of God in much conflict.
3 Sen suh baattaan hi loong ah ethih adoleh enyaan tiit tah angka, adoleh seng ih o suh ang abah uh emokwaan tiit tabaatke.
For our exhortation is not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in deception.
4 Erah nang ih bah, saarookwih Rangte ih seng suh mamet baat thuk suh jamha erah jun ih ju baat hi, tumeah Rangte ih Ruurang Ese ah baat thuk suh epun eah ih danje tahe. Seng ih mih toomroon ah ih tabaatke, erah nang ih bah seng tenthun thaaksokte wah, Rangte ah toomroon ah ih liihi.
But even as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News, so we speak; not as pleasing people, but God, who tests our hearts.
5 Sen ih rapne ne ih jat han, seng ih nyoomnyaak tiit tabaatke eah, adoleh seng ih nyamnyook tiit ah hotthiin suh tabaatke—seng haaki ah Rangte!
For neither were we at any time found using words of flattery, as you know, nor with a pretext for greed (God is witness),
6 Seng mih ih toom phoongpha he ih tajamke, sen ih ang kojan oh wahoh ih ang koja oh,
nor seeking glory from people (neither from you nor from others), when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Christ.
7 Kristo kaamwah angli jun ih sen dowa ejen suk et thengti. Enoothong sen damdi ang tahe adi, seng loong ah minuh ih heh sah kakooncha arah likhiik toongtang angti.
But we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother cherishes her own children.
8 Seng sen suh rapne ih mongnook thoih Ruurang Ese Rangte jiin nawa luulu lah angthang ih, seng loong roidong ah nep sen suh kotsuh banban ih tongli. Sen ih seng suh rapne ih minchan tahe!
Even so, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you, not the Good News of God only, but also our own souls, because you had become very dear to us.
9 Joon awaan loong, amiimi sen ih samthun et an, seng mamah kah ih chekbek moti rah ah! Sen suh Ruurang Ese Rangte tiit tumbaat koh ih doh seng thoidoh sen phoh cham an ih thun ih no seng rangwuung rangphe ih moti.
For you remember, brothers, our labor and travail; for working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, we preached to you the Good News of God.
10 Rangte nyia sen loong ah seng haaki, seng reeraangti loong asuh o ih hanpiita loong raang ih kilingling angta, epun angta nyia emoong muh angta.
You are witnesses with God, how holy, righteously, and blamelessly we behaved ourselves toward you who believe.
11 Seng ah sen loong damdi nuh awah neng suh neng sah damdi kareeraang arah likhiik ih tongthaati rah sen ih jat ehali.
As you know, as a father with his own children,
12 Seng ih sen suh chaan tiit baat hi, nak sootsaam eah, nyia sen loong ah marah Rangte tenroonjih ang ah emah ih songtong an, heh ih sen ah heteewah Hasong chaan aphaan pan adoh roong chotong thuk suh poon halan.
we exhorted, comforted, and implored every one of you to lead a life worthy of God, who calls you into his own kingdom and glory.
13 Erah dam ih Rangte suh seng ih saarookwih lakookmi mamet li ah ih ejat theng eje. Seng ih sen suh Rangte tiit thokhuikaat tahe adi, sen ih chaat ano ethang etan, mina tiitwaan lah ang Rangte tiit ih thun anno ah, eno Rangte tiit amiisak emah ju angla. Erah thoih Rangte ah o mina ih hanpi han sen damdam ih roong moh hala.
For this cause we also thank God without ceasing, that, when you received from us the word of the message of God, you accepted it not as a human word, but, as it is in truth, the word of God, which also works in you who believe.
14 Joon awaan loong, Rangte mina loong Judia ni mamah ang rumta erah likhiikkhiik ih sen damdi uh emamah ang rumhala, Kristo damdi ang rumta loong likhiik ah. Sen loong ah sen mina na ih siiwi chamnaang tahan neng Jehudi loong ih siiwi chamnaang rumta likhiik ah,
For you, brothers, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus; for you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, even as they did from the Judeans;
15 Teesu Jisu nyia khowah loong tek haatte nyia seng siiwiite loong rah ih ah. Rangte ah neng suh tumthan thungjoongjih angla! Mirep raangtaan suh neng piiara ih tong rumla!
who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out, and did not please God, and are hostile to all people;
16 Neng ih seng nep Ranglajatte loong suh neng khopiiroidong tiit baat anep taat tanghaam tahe. Emamah ih neng rangdah ah mathan dah jih angta erah thoon re rumta. Eno amadi Rangte tenkhat ah hethoon ih neng jiinni dat ra hala!
forbidding us to speak to those who are not Jewish that they may be saved; to fill up their sins always. But wrath has come on them to the uttermost.
17 Joon awaan loong, seng, sen jiin nawa amasah moongkhoomti adi—seng tenthun ni hiikthun tiit ju lah ang ih, seng hansi puh asak nawa taantaan hiikkhoom idi botseh—seng ih tumthan kah ih matjam ih nyia seng ih sen we chotup suh tumthan kah ih ram ih!
But we, brothers, being bereaved of you for a short season, in presence, not in heart, tried even harder to see your face with great desire,
18 Seng sen jiinnah ngaakwang suh rapne taat ih thunti. Nga teewah taantaan ih jaasiit taan we ngaak wang ang ih taat thuntang, ang abah uh Soitaan ih tajen ngaakwang thuk tahang.
because we wanted to come to you—indeed, I, Paul, once and again—but Satan hindered us.
19 Enoothong, sen loong ah—wahoh nang ih sen loong ajuuba! Seng laalom thukte, seng tenroon thukte, adoleh seng Teesu Jisu raaha sa doh seng loong ah heh ngathong nah ejen etti ih khona soongraang suh ah.
For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Is it not even you, before our Lord Jesus at his coming?
20 Amiimi, sen loong ah seng tenroon theng nyia seng soongraang theng!
For you are our glory and our joy.
