ဣဖိၐိဏး 5
1 အတော ယူယံ ပြိယဗာလကာ ဣဝေၑွရသျာနုကာရိဏော ဘဝတ,
(Imitate/Behave like) God, because he loves you who are [as though you were] [SIM] his children.

Do everything in a way that shows that you love [people], just like Christ loved us and willingly died for us. He offered himself [to God as a sacrifice] that was very pleasing to God, [just like Jewish priests offered] sweet-smelling [animal] sacrifices to God [MET].
3 ကိန္တု ဝေၑျာဂမနံ သရွွဝိဓာၑော်စကြိယာ လောဘၑ္စဲတေၐာမ် ဥစ္စာရဏမပိ ယုၐ္မာကံ မဓျေ န ဘဝတု, ဧတဒေဝ ပဝိတြလောကာနာမ် ဥစိတံ၊
Do not commit any kind of immoral act [DOU], and do not desire more things than you need. Do not [act in such a way that others could] even (spread rumors/talk) about your acting in such ways, because it is not appropriate/fitting for God’s people to do such things.
4 အပရံ ကုတ္သိတာလာပး ပြလာပး ၑ္လေၐောက္တိၑ္စ န ဘဝတု ယတ ဧတာနျနုစိတာနိ ကိန္တွီၑွရသျ ဓနျဝါဒေါ ဘဝတု၊
Do not use obscene/shameful language when you talk to people. Do not talk foolishly. Do not use vulgar/indecent language, because it is not appropriate/fitting that God’s people should talk like that. Instead, tell people how much you thank [God for all he does for you].
5 ဝေၑျာဂါမျၑော်စာစာရီ ဒေဝပူဇက ဣဝ ဂဏျော လောဘီ စဲတေၐာံ ကောၐိ ခြီၐ္ဋသျ ရာဇျေ'ရ္ထတ ဤၑွရသျ ရာဇျေ ကမပျဓိကာရံ န ပြာပ္သျတီတိ ယုၐ္မာဘိး သမျက် ဇ္ဉာယတာံ၊
You can be sure of this: No person who is sexually immoral or who acts indecently/shamefully will be among those people whom God rules over [MET] [in heaven]. Neither will those who desire more things than they need. Such people worship their possessions [instead of worshipping God].
6 အနရ္ထကဝါကျေန ကော'ပိ ယုၐ္မာန် န ဝဉ္စယတု ယတသ္တာဒၖဂါစာရဟေတောရနာဇ္ဉာဂြာဟိၐု လောကေၐွီၑွရသျ ကောပေါ ဝရ္တ္တတေ၊
Do not let anyone deceive you by suggesting that [God will really] not [punish people who commit such sins], because God certainly will punish [MTY] those who habitually disobey him [by doing such things].
7 တသ္မာဒ် ယူယံ တဲး သဟဘာဂိနော န ဘဝတ၊
So, do not commit the same kinds of deeds that such people do,
8 ပူရွွံ ယူယမ် အန္ဓကာရသွရူပါ အာဓွံ ကိန္တွိဒါနီံ ပြဘုနာ ဒီပ္တိသွရူပါ ဘဝထ တသ္မာဒ် ဒီပ္တေး သန္တာနာ ဣဝ သမာစရတ၊
because formerly you [did not know God’s truth] [MET], [as those who] are in darkness [do not know what is around them]. But now [it is as though] you are in the light [MET] [because you know God’s truth] because of your relationship with the Lord [Jesus]. So do those things that those who know God’s truth [MET] should do.
9 ဒီပ္တေ ရျတ် ဖလံ တတ် သရွွဝိဓဟိတဲၐိတာယာံ ဓရ္မ္မေ သတျာလာပေ စ ပြကာၑတေ၊
Keep in mind that [as] light [MET] causes [good things to grow], those who know God’s truth should do those things that are good, righteous, and honest.
10 ပြဘဝေ ယဒ် ရောစတေ တတ် ပရီက္ၐဓွံ၊
And as [you do that], try (to find out/to discover) what pleases the Lord.
11 ယူယံ တိမိရသျ ဝိဖလကရ္မ္မဏာမ် အံၑိနော န ဘူတွာ တေၐာံ ဒေါၐိတွံ ပြကာၑယတ၊
Do not do the worthless deeds that the people (who are in [spiritual] darkness/who do not know God’s truth) [MET] do. Instead, let others know that those people’s deeds are worthless.
12 ယတသ္တေ လောကာ ရဟမိ ယဒ် ယဒ် အာစရန္တိ တဒုစ္စာရဏမ် အပိ လဇ္ဇာဇနကံ၊
It is shameful for God’s people to even talk [among themselves about] those evil deeds that evil people do secretly and habitually.
13 ယတော ဒီပ္တျာ ယဒ် ယတ် ပြကာၑျတေ တတ် တယာ စကာသျတေ ယစ္စ စကာသ္တိ တဒ် ဒီပ္တိသွရူပံ ဘဝတိ၊
But when [God’s people rebuke those evil people about their deeds, it will be clear/evident how evil their deeds really are, just like] everything exposed to the light becomes visible {as light [MET] reveals everything [that we cannot see in the darkness]}.
14 ဧတတ္ကာရဏာဒ် ဥက္တမ် အာသ္တေ, "ဟေ နိဒြိတ ပြဗုဓျသွ မၖတေဘျၑ္စောတ္ထိတိံ ကုရု၊ တတ္ကၖတေ သူရျျဝတ် ခြီၐ္ဋး သွယံ တွာံ ဒျောတယိၐျတိ၊ "
[Just like something on which a light shines reflects that light] [MET], [whoever has learned God’s truth reveals that truth to others]. That is why [we believers] say this: You who are not aware of your sins, become aware of them [MET]! It is as though you are sound asleep, so wake up! Be like dead people who are becoming alive again! Christ will cause you to know God’s truth, just like a light [MET] that shines causes people to know what is in the darkness.
15 အတး သာဝဓာနာ ဘဝတ, အဇ္ဉာနာ ဣဝ မာစရတ ကိန္တု ဇ္ဉာနိန ဣဝ သတရ္ကမ် အာစရတ၊
So be very careful how you behave. Do not behave as foolish people do. Instead, behave as wise people do.
16 သမယံ ဗဟုမူလျံ ဂဏယဓွံ ယတး ကာလာ အဘဒြား၊
Use your time carefully, because these days [MTY] [people do] extremely evil [deeds].
17 တသ္မာဒ် ယူယမ် အဇ္ဉာနာ န ဘဝတ ကိန္တု ပြဘောရဘိမတံ ကိံ တဒဝဂတာ ဘဝတ၊
So do not be foolish. Instead, understand what the Lord [Jesus] wants you to do, [and do it]!
18 သရွွနာၑဇနကေန သုရာပါနေန မတ္တာ မာ ဘဝတ ကိန္တွာတ္မနာ ပူရျျဓွံ၊
Do not become drunk by drinking alcoholic drinks, since people are unable to control their behavior when they are drunk. Instead, let [God’s] Spirit control your [behavior] at all times [MTY].
19 အပရံ ဂီတဲ ရ္ဂာနဲး ပါရမာရ္ထိကကီရ္တ္တနဲၑ္စ ပရသ္ပရမ် အာလပန္တော မနသာ သာရ္ဒ္ဓံ ပြဘုမ် ဥဒ္ဒိၑျ ဂါယတ ဝါဒယတ စ၊
Sing to each other (Psalms/songs [with words from the] Scriptures), sing [other] songs [that the congregation knows], and songs [that God’s] Spirit [gives you]. Sing these Psalms and other songs sincerely to [praise] the Lord [Jesus].

At all times thank God, who is our [heavenly] Father, for everything, especially for what the Lord Jesus Christ [MTY] [has done for you].

[Humbly] submit yourselves to each other because you reverence Christ, [who is our example].
22 ဟေ ယောၐိတး, ယူယံ ယထာ ပြဘောသ္တထာ သွသွသွာမိနော ဝၑင်္ဂတာ ဘဝတ၊
Because husbands have authority over [MET] their wives, just as all of us believers form one group [under the authority of] Christ, you women should submit yourselves to [the authority of your] husbands just as you submit yourselves to the Lord [Jesus]. He is the one who saves all his people [from the guilt of their sins].
23 ယတး ခြီၐ္ဋော ယဒွတ် သမိတေ ရ္မူရ္ဒ္ဓါ ၑရီရသျ တြာတာ စ ဘဝတိ တဒွတ် သွာမီ ယောၐိတော မူရ္ဒ္ဓါ၊

Just like all believers submit themselves to [the authority of] Christ, the women must submit themselves completely to the [authority of] their husbands.

Each of you husbands, love your wife as Christ loved all of [us who would become] believers, with the result that he willingly died for our sake,
26 သ ခြီၐ္ဋော'ပိ သမိတော် ပြီတဝါန် တသျား ကၖတေ စ သွပြာဏာန် တျက္တဝါန် ယတး သ ဝါကျေ ဇလမဇ္ဇနေန တာံ ပရိၐ္ကၖတျ ပါဝယိတုမ္
in order that he might (set us apart for himself/cause us to belong to him). That is, by [revealing his] message [to us], he wanted to [remove the guilt of our sin, just like people remove dirt from something] by washing it [MET].
27 အပရံ တိလကဝလျာဒိဝိဟီနာံ ပဝိတြာံ နိၐ္ကလင်္ကာဉ္စ တာံ သမိတိံ တေဇသွိနီံ ကၖတွာ သွဟသ္တေ သမရ္ပယိတုဉ္စာဘိလၐိတဝါန်၊
[Christ did that] in order that he might cause all of us believers to be a glorious group of people that belong to him, people that do not have any moral flaws/imperfections, but instead might be completely pure [DOU] when he gathers us (to his presence/to himself).
28 တသ္မာတ် သွတနုဝတ် သွယောၐိတိ ပြေမကရဏံ ပုရုၐသျောစိတံ, ယေန သွယောၐိတိ ပြေမ ကြိယတေ တေနာတ္မပြေမ ကြိယတေ၊
In the same way, each man should love his wife as he loves his own body. Men who love their wives, [it is as though] they love themselves.
29 ကော'ပိ ကဒါပိ န သွကီယာံ တနုမ် ၒတီယိတဝါန် ကိန္တု သရွွေ တာံ ဝိဘြတိ ပုၐ္ဏန္တိ စ၊ ခြီၐ္ဋော'ပိ သမိတိံ ပြတိ တဒေဝ ကရောတိ,
This is shown by the fact that no one ever hated his own body. Instead, he feeds his own body and cares for it, just like Christ also cares for all us believers. We have become one group of believers that belongs to him [MET].

[What someone has written in the Scriptures about people who marry is this], [When] a man and [a] woman [marry], they should ([permanently] leave/no longer live with) their fathers and mothers. They should be joined [as husband and] wife, and the two of them shall become [as though they were] one [MET] person.

It is very difficult to understand the meaning of these things that God has now revealed to me, but [I am telling you that] those words [also] refer to [the relationship between] Christ and all those who belong to him.

However, as for you(pl), each man must love his wife just as he loves himself, and each woman must respect her husband.
