Kalati 3
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Berean Standard Bible
1Aw amthu Kalati kaminawk, thinglam nuiah takhing o ih Jesu Kri to nangcae khae kamtueng ah ka thuih moe, mik hoiah na hnuk o boeh, toe loktang lok tang han ai ah, mi mah maw ang doi o?
1O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.
2Nangcae khae hoi hae lok maeto khue ni thaih han ka koeh, kaalok pazuihaih rang hoiah maw Muithla na hnuk o, to tih ai boeh loe tanghaih lok thaihaih rang hoiah?
2I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?
3Hae tih khoek to maw nam thu o? Muithla hoiah toksak amtong o boeh to mah, vaihi taksa koehhaih bangah maw na koep o lat han?
3Are you so foolish? After starting in the Spirit, are you now finishing in the flesh?
4Tidoeh avang ai ah maw paroeai patang na khang o, tidoeh avang ai tanglang ah maw oh boeh?
4Have you suffered so much for nothing, if it really was for nothing?
5Nangcae khaeah Muithla paekkung, dawnrai hmuennawk sahkung loe, kaalok pazuihaih rang hoiah maw to toknawk to a sak, to tih ai boeh loe tanghaih lok thaihaih rang hoiah?
5Does God lavish His Spirit on you and work miracles among you because you practice the law, or because you hear and believe?
6To baktih toengah Abraham mah Sithaw to tang pongah, a tanghaih to toenghaih ah tapom pae.
6So also, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”
7Tanghaih tawn kaminawk loe, Abraham ih caa ah oh o, tito panoek oh.
7Understand, then, that those who have faith are sons of Abraham.
8Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk loe Sithaw tanghaih rang hoiah toenghaih hnu o tih, tiah Cabu mah hnukcoek boeh, Nang rang hoiah acaeng kaminawk boih tahamhoihaih hnu o tih, tiah tamthanglok hoih to Abraham khaeah thuih pae coek boeh.
8The Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and foretold the gospel to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”
9To pongah tanghaih tawn kaminawk loe, tanghaih tawn Abraham hoi nawnto tahamhoihaih hnu o tih.
9So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
10Kaalok toksakhaih thungah kaom kaminawk boih loe, tangoenghaih thungah oh o; sak koi kaom, kaalok thungah tarik ih loknawk boih pazui poe ai kaminawk loe, tangoenghaih hnuk o, tiah tarik ih oh.
10All who rely on works of the law are under a curse. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”
11Toe mi kawbaktih doeh kaalok rang hoiah Sithaw hmaa ah toenghaih hnu thai ai, tiah amtueng: katoeng kami loe tanghaih hoiah hing tih, tiah lok to oh.
11Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because, “The righteous will live by faith.”
12Kaalok loe tanghaih ih na ai ni: toe kaalok pazui kami loe pazuihaih rang hoiah hing tih.
12The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.”
13Thing pongah bang ih kami boih loe tangoenghaih tongh kami ah oh, tiah tarik ih oh: Kri loe aicae hanah tangoenghaih tongh moe, kaalok tangoenghaih thung hoiah aicae to akrang boeh.
13Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”
14Kri Jesu rang hoiah Abraham tahamhoihhaih Gentelnawk khaeah phak thai hanah, tanghaih rang hoiah ni lokkamhaih Muithla to a hnu o tih.
14He redeemed us in order that the blessing promised to Abraham would come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.
15Nawkamyanawk, kaminawk khosakhaih dan baktiah lok kang thuih o; kami lokmaihaih mataeng doeh caksak boeh loe, mi mah doeh phrae ai, thap doeh thap vai ai, to tiah ni hae hmuen doeh oh.
15Brothers, let me put this in human terms. Even a human covenant, once it is ratified, cannot be canceled or amended.
16Abraham hoi anih ih atii khaeah ni lokkamhaih loe sak. Cabu mah kami pop thuihaih baktiah, atiinawk, tiah thui ai; toe kami maeto khaeah ni, nang ih atii, tiah thuih; to kami loe Kri ni.
16The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say, “and to seeds,” meaning many, but “and to your seed,” meaning One, who is Christ.
17Ka thuih koehhaih loe hae tiah oh; Kri ah Sithaw mah caksak ih lokmaihaih to, saning cumvai pali, quithumto laemh pacoengah paek ih kaalok mah phrae thai mak ai, lokkamhaih doeh azom pui ah om mak ai.
17What I mean is this: The law that came 430 years later does not revoke the covenant previously established by God, so as to nullify the promise.
18Kaalok rang hoiah qawktoephaih om nahaeloe, lokkamhaih hoiah om mak ai boeh: toe lokkamhaih rang hoiah ni Sithaw mah Abraham khaeah qawktoephaih to paek.
18For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on a promise; but God freely granted it to Abraham through a promise.
19To tiah nahaeloe kaalok loe tih avanghaih maw oh? Sakpazaehaih pop pongah ni lokkamhaih ah kaom kami khae hoi ih atii angzo ai karoek to, paek thap ah oh; to kaalok loe van kaminawk rang hoiah laicaeh maeto ban ah paek.
19Why then was the law given? It was added because of transgressions, until the arrival of the seed to whom the promise referred. It was administered through angels by a mediator.
20To laicaeh loe kami maeto khue han om ai; toe Sithaw loe maeto ni.
20A mediator is unnecessary, however, for only one party; but God is one.
21Kaalok mah Sithaw lokkamhaih to aek maw? Aek ai: kaalok mah hinghaih paek thai nahaeloe, toenghaih doeh kaalok rang hoiah angzo tih boeh.
21Is the law, then, opposed to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come from the law.
22Toe Jesu Kri tanghaih rang hoiah lokkamhaih to tangcaanawk khaeah paek thai hanah, Cabu mah kaminawk boih zaehaih thungah suek.
22But the Scripture pronounces all things confined by sin, so that by faith in Jesus Christ the promise might be given to those who believe.
23Toe aicae mah hnukkhuem ah kamtueng han koi tanghaih to a tawnh o thai hanah, tanghaih angzo ai naah, aicae loe kaalok ukhaih thungah ni a oh o.
23Before this faith came, we were held in custody under the law, locked up until faith should be revealed.
24To pongah tanghaih rang hoiah toenghaih a hnuk o thai hanah, kaalok loe aicae Kri khaeah caeh haih, patukkung ah ni oh.
24So the law became our guardian to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25Toe tanghaih angzoh pacoengah loe, patukkung maeto ih ban thungah a om o ai boeh.
25Now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.
26Kri Jesu tanghaih rang hoiah nangcae loe Sithaw ih caa ah ni na oh o boih.
26You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
27Kri ah tuinuem kaminawk boih loe, Kri to laihaw ah nang khuk o boeh.
27For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
28Kri ah loe Judah kami, Grik kami, misong, loih kami, nongpa, nongpata tito om ai, Kri Jesu ah maeto ah ni na oh o boih.
28There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
29Kri ih kami ah na oh o nahaeloe, Abraham ih atii ah na oh o moe, lokkamhaih baktih toengah qawktoep kami ah na oh o.
29And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise.
