< Philipiite 3 >

1 Hethoondi, joon awaan loong ngah ih baat rumhala, Teesu damdi roong rooplan asuh tenroon ang an! Ngah ih helek helek ih raangmaat halang ah tathet thunkang, sen ah punpiipi toom ih tong an ih thunhang.
Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you indeed is not burdensome to me, but it is safe to you.
2 Ethih mote, hui lajak loong sak khan suh laat ram rumla loong dowa pui ean.
Beware of dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of the counterfeit circumcision.
3 Amiisak ih khoopkhan cho abah seng, neng tah angka, tumeah seng ih Rangte ah heh Chiiala lam ih soom eno seng roidong ah tenroon lam ih Jisu Kristo damdi roong tongli. Seng ih hansi rangkhokhoop khan banlam adi amasah uh tah laalomke.
For we are the circumcision, who serve the Spirit of God, and boast in Christ Jesus, also having no confidence in the flesh:
4 Elang eah, erah likhiik banlam adoh ngah uh emi laalom eh ang. O ih bah uh erah rangkhoh khoopkhan banlam adoh jen laalom ih mokthun anbah, ngah di tang erah nang ih ehan ih thuntheng lam je ah.
even though also having confidence in the flesh. If any other one seems to have confidence in the flesh, I the more:
5 Saasinet noodek di nga khoopkhan banlam hoon tahang, ngah ah Ijirel mina ih tup raahang rah, Benjamin jaat apaat, amiisak ih Hebru mina. Jehudi loong Hootthe thok banlamta bah, ngah ah Pharasi mina ang thengtang,
in circumcision the eighth day, of the race of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;
6 eno erah tokdi ngah ih Chaas thet haat asuh rapne ih ram angno kah siiwi rumtang. Mina ah Hootthe jengdang ah kap ano kateng ang ah ih liita, erah tok adi, ngah uh kateng ju angtang.
in reference to zeal, persecuting the church, according to righteousness which was in the law being blameless.
7 Enoothong edak chojih taat ih rookweh tang ah, amadi Kristo raangtaan ih thaangmuh ih hoonla.
Those things which were gained to me, these I counted loss for the sake of Christ.
8 Erah loong laklak lah angthang ih; ngah ih thun angdi jirep ah nga Teesu Jisu Kristo jattang dowa ih bah erah loong ah thoontang emat haatjih ih hoonla. Erah raang ih heh tungthoidi ngah ih erah loong ah jaatrep ehaat etang; ngah ih erah loong asuh thaangmuh ih thiik hang, eno ba ngah ah Kristo damdoh jen ang angno
Yes truly, I even counted all things loss on account of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for the sake of whom I suffer the loss of all things, and I consider them but excrements, that I may gain Christ,
9 heh damdoh esiit ih hoon ang. Ngah ih Hootthe ah phan angno kateng ih kathun tang ah amadoh takah angka. Amadi kateng anglang abah Kristo suh hanpi angno anglang, marah Rangte jiin nawa hanpi jun ih chojih rah asuh ah.
and may be found in him, not having my own righteousness, which is of law, but that which is through faith of Christ, the righteousness of God through faith:
10 Ngah ih jamhang ah langla ngah ih Kristo ah jat ang, eno tek nawa ngaakthingta chaan aphaan anep roongjat ang, heh chamnaang ah roong hui et ang, nyia heh tekta likhiik ih roongtek ang,
to know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;
11 nga teewah nep heh tek nawa ngaakthingta likhiik ih roong ngaakthing ang ih laalom lang.
if perchance I may attain unto the resurrection which is out from the dead.
12 Ngah ih jaatrep ah ejen choh etang adoleh ngah jaatrep di epun elang ih taliikang. Amadi uh ngah ih hethaang ah chosuh chekbek lang marah Jisu Kristo ih erah raang ih ngah ah danjoh tahang.
Not that I already received it, or have already been made perfect: but I persevere, if I may receive that for which I have indeed been received by Christ Jesus.
13 Joon awaan loong, elang eah, amiimi di ngah ih ejen jen ettang ih tathunkang; enoothong jaatsiit ngah reelang abah, liko dowa ah beehaat angno lakngah nawa eseethoon adoh thok suh reelang.
Brethren, I do not consider that I have yet received it;
14 Erah thoih ngah lamjunko maradi thaangchojih angla adi soonlang, Rangte ih Jisu Kristo mendi rangkhothung nawa roidong ah chosuh poon halang rah di ah.
but there is one thing, indeed forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forward to those which are before, I press toward the goal unto the mark of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
15 Seng loongtang mathan mina chiiala lam ih thungsek angte loong ah ih, emamah ih samthun theng. Enoothong sen mararah mina doh thung atak jaat hoh mok ang anbah, Rangte ih sen suh toom miidong thunthuk han.
Therefore let us, so many as are perfect, think the same thing: and if you think otherwise in any respect, God will also reveal this to you:
16 Mamah ang abah uh, amatuk ih marah banlam jah hali emamah lakngah nah erah aju phankaat ih.
only, whereunto we have already attained, to walk by the same rule.
17 Joon awaan loong, nga reeraang ah nyootsok he. Seng ih baat hi lampo adi o mina ih ese reeraang nyoot ha erah loong ah naririh ih ban sok an.
Be ye my imitators, brethren, and mark those thus walking about as you have us an example.
18 Arah tiit ah jaakhoni helek helek ih baat rum taha, eno amadi uh nga mikphi ah janhaat lam ih we baat rumhala: Kristo bangphak ni tiita rah rukho roidong ni neng piiara ih hoon arah uh eje.
For many walk about, of whom I frequently spoke to you, and now I speak even weeping, the enemies of the cross of Christ:
19 Neng loong ah soolam nah thoon wangte ang rumla, tumeah neng rangte ah neng hansi tenthun ni ang thoidi ah. Neng marah doh erakriijih angta adi mok ngaampo ih rumla, erah dam ih neng thung mongrep hadaang nawa adi luulu thun rumha.
whose end is destruction, whose God is their stomach, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.
20 Seng loong ah ang koleh, rangmong nawa noksong, erah thoih seng Pangteewah Teesu Jisu Kristo ah rangmong nawa ngaakkaat ah bantho hi.
For our citizenship is in the heavens; whence we are indeed looking for our Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:
21 Heh ih seng larook lata hansi sak etek etheng ah leksiit heeno, heteewah sak phaakjaaja ang arah likhiik ih hoonhe, eno jaatrep chaan aphaan ah maak ano heh lakhu nah jen loomsiit he.
who will transform the body of our humility, similitudinous to the body of his own glory, according to the energy by which he is able indeed to subdue all things to himself.
