1 Timote 5
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Mitong to zoeh hmah, ampa baktiah poek ah; thendoengnawk to nawkamyanawk baktiah poek ah;
1An ancient man rebuke not, but entreat him as a father: young men, as brethren:
2kaciim poekhaih hoiah nongpata mitongnawk to amno baktiah poek ah; tanglanawk loe tanuh tang baktiah poek ah.
2Old women, as mothers: young women, as sisters, in all chastity.
3Tangtang lamhmainawk to abom oh.
3Honour widows, that are widows indeed.
4Toe kawbaktih lamhmai mah doeh caa a tawnh, to tih ai boeh loe a caa ih caa patoeng to tawn nahaeloe, am no hoi ampa khetzawn let hanah, im ah tahmenhaih amtueng o sak hmaloe nasoe, to tiah sakhaih loe Sithaw mah tapom thai koi kahoih hmuen ah oh.
4But if any widow have children, or grandchildren, let her learn first to govern her own house, and to make a return of duty to her parents: for this is acceptable before God.
5Angmah bueng kaom lamhmai tangtang loe, Sithaw khaeah amha moe, aqum athun lawkthuihaih hoiah tahmenhaih a hnik.
5But she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, let her trust in God, and continue in supplications and prayers night and day.
6Toe taksa koehhaih baktiah khosah lamhmai loe a hing e, kadueh kami ah ni oh.
6For she that liveth in pleasures, is dead while she is living.
7Nihcae mah coek koi kaom ai ah khosak o thai hanah, hae loknawk hae thui ah.
7And this give in charge, that they may be blameless.
8Angmah ih nawkamya khetzawn koeh ai kami, angmah ih imthong doeh khenzawn ai kami loe, tanghaih caehtaak kami ah oh, anih loe tang ai kami pongah nung kue.
8But if any man have not care of his own, and especially of those of his house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.
9Lamhmai loe saning quitaruk to akoep ai nahaeloe, lamhmai cabu thungah pakun o hmah, anih loe sava maeto khue tawnh moe,
9Let a widow be chosen of no less than threescore years of age, who hath been the wife of one husband.
10kahoih hmuen sakhaih bangah ahmin kaom kami; a caanawk khenzawn thai kami, angvinnawk khenzawn thai kami, kaciim kaminawk ih khok pasae pae kami, amtang kaminawk khenzawn thai kami, kahoih toknawk boih thahmaehaih hoiah sah kami ah oh han angaih.
10Having testimony for her good works, if she have brought up children, if she have received to harbour, if she have washed the saints’ feet, if she have ministered to them that suffer tribulation, if she have diligently followed every good work.
11Saning kanawk lamhmainawk loe cazin thungah akunsak hmah: tipongah tih nahaeloe nihcae loe taksa koehhaih mah pazawk pongah, Kri mah patuk ih lok to tahngai o ai, sava sak han a koeh o;
11But the younger widows avoid. For when they have grown wanton in Christ, they will marry:
12tanghaih tangsuek to a pahnawt o ving pongah, lokcaekhaih thungah akun o.
12Having damnation, because they have made void their first faith.
13To khue ai thaset o moe, im maeto pacoeng maeto ah a caeh o; thaset khue ai ah, lokprong lok to a thuih o moe, tok kong o ai, a thuih o han ai koi hmuennawk to a thuih o.
13And withal being idle they learn to go about from house to house: and are not only idle, but tattlers also, and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.
14To pongah saning kanawk lamhmainawk loe sava sah o nasoe loe, caa sah o nasoe, imthung ah khokhan o nasoe, kasae thuihaih atue karaem to misa khaeah a paek o han ai ah tok a sak o to ka koeh haih.
14I will therefore that the younger should marry, bear children, be mistresses of families, give no occasion to the adversary to speak evil.
15Thoemto kaminawk loe lam amkhraeng o moe, Setan hnukah bang o boeh.
15For some are already turned aside after Satan.
16Tanghaih tawn kami nongpa maw, to tih ai boeh loe nongpata im ah lamhmai to om nahaeloe, kricaabu raihaih paek han ai ah, anih mah to lamhmai to kahoih ah khenzawn nasoe; to tiah ni khenzawnkung tawn ai lamhmai tangtangnawk to kricaabu mah khen thai tih.
16If any of the faithful have widows, let him minister to them, and let not the church be charged: that there may be sufficient for them that are widows indeed.
17Lokpui koekah tamthanglok thuihaih hoi patukhaih bangah tha pathok, Kricaabu khetzawn kop kacoehtanawk loe, alet hnetto pakoehhaih hnuk han krak.
17Let the priests that rule well, be esteemed worthy of double honour: especially they who labour in the word and doctrine:
18Cabu mah, Cang atii maitaw ih tahmawh to moem pae hmah, tiah thuih. Toksah kami loe sakhaih atho hnuk han krak, tiah thuih.
18For the scripture saith: Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn: and, The labourer is worthy of his reward.
19Hnukung hnetto maw, thumto maw om ai ah loe, kricaa zaehoikung kacoehta zae nethaih to tapom o hmah.
19Against a priest receive not an accusation, but under two or three witnesses.
20Hmuen sahpazae kami to kaminawk boih hma ah thuitaek ah, to tiah ni kalah kaminawk mah doeh zii o tih.
20Them that sin reprove before all: that the rest also may have fear.
21Maeto hoi maeto mikhmai khethaih kaom ai, pathlaenghaih palungthin tawn ai ah hae loknawk na pazui thai hanah, Sithaw, Angraeng Jesu Kri hoi qoih ih van kaminawk hmaa ah kang thaisak.
21I charge thee before God, and Christ Jesus, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by declining to either side.
22Mi kawbaktih nuiah doeh ban to karangah koeng hmah, minawk zaehaih thungah doeh athum hmah: nangmah hoi nangmah to ciimcai ah khosah ah.
22Impose not hands lightly upon any man, neither be partaker of other men’s sins. Keep thyself chaste.
23Zok hoih ai moe, ngantui ai ah na oh toepsoep pongah, tui khue nae ai ah, misurtui zetta patoh ah.
23Do not still drink water, but use a little wine for thy stomach’s sake, and thy frequent infirmities.
24Thoemto kaminawk ih zaehaih loe amtueng lawngkawng, to pongah lokcaekhaih to tong o roep; thoemto kaminawk ih zaehaih loe amzaita hoiah ni amtueng.
24Some men’s sins are manifest, going before to judgment: and some men they follow after.
25To baktih toengah thoemto kaminawk mah sak ih kahoih hmuen doeh amtueng roep; kamtueng roep ai zaehaihnawk doeh anghawk thai mak ai.
25In like manner also good deeds are manifest: and they that are otherwise, cannot be hid.
