Felemon 1
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Kri Jesu pongah thongim krah, Pawl hoi aicae amnawk Timote mah, a palung o ih, tok nawnto sah ampui Filemon,
1Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer,
2a palung o ih tanuh Apphia, aicae hoi misa nawnto tuh Arkhipa hoi na im ah amkhueng kricaanawk khaeah ca tarik:
2And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the church in thy house:
3Angraeng Jesu Kri hoi aicae Ampa Sithaw khae hoi ih tahmenhaih hoi monghaih to nangcae khaeah om nasoe.
3Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4Angraeng, Jesu tanghaih na tawnh moe, kaciim kaminawk boih to na palung ti, tiah ka thaih naah, ka Sithaw khaeah kawnhaih lawk ka thuih toepsoep;
4I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers,
no verse 5 in this text
5Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;
6Jesu Kri ah na tawnh ih kahoih hmuennawk boih na panoekhaih rang hoiah, minawk khaeah tanghaih kawng na thuih naah caak o thai tangtang hanah lawk ka thuih.
6That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
7Kam nawk, kaciim kaminawk ih palungthin to nang thasak let pongah, to baktih nam lunghaih mah kaicae han thuilaek ai anghoehaih to ang paek.
7For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.
8To pongah ni Kri ah misa ka hoih parai moe, na sak han koi kahoih hmuen to sak hanah, lok kang thuih thaih,
8Wherefore, though I might be much bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient,
9toe saning kacoeh, Jesu Kri ih thongkrah kami ah kaom kai Pawl mah, amlunghaih hoiah ni tahmenhaih kang hnik.
9Yet for love’s sake I rather beseech thee , being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
10Thongim krak nathung ka capa ah sak ih, Onesima hanah tahmenhaih kang hnik pae:
10I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:
11anih loe canghniah nang han avanghaih om ai, toe vaihi loe nang hoi kai hanah atho kaom kami ah oh boeh.
11Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:
12Anih to nang khaeah kang patoeh let: anih to kai thung hoi tacawt kami baktih toengah talawk ah:
12Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:
13kahoih tamthanglok ka thuih pongah thongim ka krak naah kai khetzawn hanah, nang zuengah anih to kaimah khaeah ohsak han ka koeh:
13Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:
14toe nang bomhaih loe tha hoiah saksak nganga ih baktiah om ai ah, na sak koehhaih palungthin hoiah saksak han ih ni kang koeh haih, to pongah nang naakrakhaih om ai ah loe tidoeh sak han ka koeh ai.
14But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.
15Anih hoi nawnto dungzan ah na oh han ih kalang mue, anih mah nawnetta thung ang cawnhtaak.
15For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever;
16Toe anih loe vaihi tamna ah om ai boeh, tamna pongah sang boeh, kai hanah loe palung ih kam nawk baktiah ni oh, nang han cae loe taksa hoi Angraeng ah kawkruk maw palung ih amnawk baktiah om aep tih?
16Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord?
17Kai hae toksah ampui ah na poek nahaeloe, anih doeh kai baktih toengah talawk ah.
17If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.
18Nang khaeah hmuen sakpazaehaih maw, pathok han koi laiba maw om nahaeloe, kai taham ah suem ah.
18If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account;
19Kai, Pawl mah kaimah ih ban hoi roe ca kang tarik: toe kaimah kang rong pae han, na hinghaih ah kai khae laiba na tawnh, tiah kang thuih han angai ai.
19I Paul have written it with mine own hand, I will repay it : albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.
20Ue, kam nawk, Angraeng ah anghoehaih na paek ah: Angraeng ah kai ih palungthin to angthasak ah.
20Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.
21Ka lok nang tahngai pae tih, tiah oephaih ka tawnh, to khue ai kang hnik ih hmuen pongah doeh kapop kueah na sah tih, tiah panoekhaih hoiah ni ca kang tarik.
21Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.
22Toe pacoengah, ka toemh han ih ahmuen to paroep coek ah: lawk na thuih o haih rang hoiah nangcae khaeah kang zo thai tih, tiah ka poek.
22But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.
23Kri Jesu ah kai hoi nawnto thongim krah Epaphra mah ban ang sin o;
23There salute thee Epaphras, my fellowprisoner in Christ Jesus;
24tok nawnto sah kami Marka, Aristarka, Dema hoi Luka cae mah doeh ban ang sin o.
24Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellowlabourers.
25Aicae Angraeng Jesu Kri tahmenhaih loe nangcae ih muithla hoi nawnto om nasoe.
25The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
