Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1And you were dead in your trespasses and sins,
1Nangmih khaw tholhdalhnah neh na tholhnah ah aka duek la na om uh.
2in which you used to walk when you conformed to the ways of this world and of the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit who is now at work in the sons of disobedience.
2Hnukbuet ah khaw ta kumhal kah Diklai khosing neh yilh dongkah saithainah boei banglam ni te dongah te na pongpa uh. Althanah kah a ca rhoek te a khuiah mueihla a tueng pah coeng.
3All of us also lived among them at one time, fulfilling the cravings of our flesh and indulging its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature children of wrath.
3Hnukbuet ah mamih boeih khaw pumsa hoehhamnah neh amih taengah kho n'sak uh. Pumsa neh kopoek kah kongaih te n'saii uh dongah a tloe rhoek kah a coengnah bangla kosi kah ca rhoek la n'om uh.
4But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy,
4Tedae rhennah neh kuirhang la aka om Pathen tah a lungnah a cungkuem dongah ni mamih n'lungnah.
5made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in our trespasses. It is by grace you have been saved!
5Mamih he tholhdalhnah ah duek la aka om rhoek pataeng Khrih neh n'thoh sak tih lungvatnah lamloh khang la na om uh coeng.
6And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,
6Amah neh n'thoh tih Khrih Jesuh rhangneh vaan ah n'ngoltun sak.
7in order that in the coming ages He might display the surpassing riches of His grace, demonstrated by His kindness to us in Christ Jesus.
7Te daengah ni Khrih Jesuh lamloh mamih taengah rhennah neh aka thoeng ham a lungvatnah khuehtawn te a baetawt la kumhal ah a tueng eh.
8For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God,
8Lungvatnah neh tangnah lamloh khang la na om uh coeng. Te te namamih kah moenih Pathen kah kutdoe ni.
9not by works, so that no one can boast.
9Khoboe kah moenih. Te dongah pakhat khaw hoemdam boel saeh.
10For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life.
10Mamih tah Jesuh Khrih ah a suen a kutngo la n'om uh. Tekah khoboe then te Pathen loh a hmoel pai tih ni a soah m'pongpa pai eh.
11Therefore remember that formerly you who are Gentiles in the flesh and called uncircumcised by the so-called circumcision (that done in the body by human hands)—
11Te dongah pumsa ah nangmih namtom loh hnukbuet kah te poek uh. Pumdul la a khue rhoek tah pumsa neh kutsai lamloh yahvinrhetnah te ni a thui.
12remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world.
12Te vaeng tue ah Khrih mueh la na om uh te ta. Israel kah khokung khomah te na hai uh tih olkhueh kah paipi te na kholong tak uh. Ngaiuepnah om pawt bangla Diklai ah na dalrha uh.
13But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.
13Tedae nangmih hnukbuet kah Khrih Jesuh ah lakhla la aka om te Khrih thii dong lamloh rhep na om uh coeng.
14For He Himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has torn down the dividing wall of hostility
14Amah tah mamih kah rhoepnah la om. Panit pakhat la aka saii amah loh a pumsa dongkah thunkha la aka om vongtung pangbueng te khaw a phil coeng.
15by abolishing in His flesh the law of commandments and decrees. He did this to create in Himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace
15Oltloek dongkah olpaek kah olkhueng te a hmil coeng. Te daengah ni panit te amah ah hlang thai pakhat la a suen vetih rhoepnah khaw a saii pai eh.
16and reconciling both of them to God in one body through the cross, by which He extinguished their hostility.
16Te daengah ni thunkha te thinglam lamloh a ngawn vetih panit te Pathen taengah pum pakhat la a moeithen sak eh.
17He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near.
17Ha pawk vaengah lakhla kah nangmih taengah khaw rhoepnah, a yoei rhoek taengah khaw rhoepnah a phong.
18For through Him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.
18Amah lamloh pa taengah mueihla thikat neh boktlap la kunnah te n'dang uh.
19Therefore you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of God’s household,
19Te dongah kholong neh yinlai la na om uh voel tangloeng pawh. Tedae hlangcim rhoek kah pilnam neh Pathen kah imkhuikho la na om uh coeng.
20built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus Himself as the cornerstone.
20Caeltueih rhoek neh tonghma rhoek kah khoengim te a tlingtlawn thil uh coeng tih Khrih Jesuh amah he imkil la om.
21In Him the whole building is fitted together and grows into a holy temple in the Lord.
21Amah dongah im pum te kiba tih Boeipa ah bawkim cim la rhoeng.
22And in Him you too are being built together into a dwelling place for God in His Spirit.
22Nangmih khaw Mueihla ah Khrih amah dongah Pathen kah khosaknah hmuen la n'dun.
