Palungha Lok 3
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Ka capa, kang patukhaih lok hae pahnet hmah, kang paek ih lok hae palung thungah pakuem ah;
1My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:
2nang hanah hing sawkhaih hoi monghaih na paek tih.
2For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.
3Tahmenhaih hoi loktang to caeh taak hmah; nangmah ih tahnong ah a oih ah loe, na palung cabu pongah tarik ah:
3Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:
4to tih nahaeloe Sithaw hmaa hoi kami hmaa ah mikhmai hnu ueloe, ahmin hoihaih na hnu tih.
4So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
5Na palungthin boih hoi Angraeng oephaih to tawn ah; na panoekhaih pongah amha hmah.
5¶ Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6Na caehhaih loklam kruekah anih to panoek ah, to tih nahaeloe na caehhaih loklam na hnusak tih.
6In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
7Na mikhnuk ah palungha baktiah om hmah; Angraeng to zii ah loe, hmuensae to caeh taak ah.
7¶ Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD , and depart from evil.
8To tih nahaeloe na thaquinawk ngantui o ueloe, na huhnawk doeh thacak o tih.
8It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.
9Na tawnh ih hmuen, thingthai tangsuek hoiah Angraeng to pakoeh ah:
9Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
10to tiah na sak nahaeloe nang ih tapupnawk cang hoiah koi amthlai o ueloe, misurtui suekhaih muroihnawk doeh misurtui kangtha hoiah koi amthlai o tih.
10So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.
11Ka capa, Angraeng thuitaekhaih to patoek hmah; ang zoehhaih lok pongah doeh palung naa hmah:
11¶ My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD ; neither be weary of his correction:
12palung ih capa loe ampa mah thuitaek baktih toengah, Angraeng mah palung ih kami loe thuitaek ah oh.
12For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.
13Palunghahaih pakrong moe, panoekhaih tawn kami loe tahamhoih.
13¶ Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
14Palunghahaih loe sumkanglung pongah atho oh kue moe, sui pongah doeh hoih kue.
14For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
15Atho kaom thlung kathim pongah doeh atho nat kue, na koeh ih hmuennawk boih hoiah doeh patah thai ai.
15She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.
16A bantang bangah hingsawkhaih to a suek, banqoi bangah loe angraenghaih hoi khingyahaih to a suek.
16Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour.
17Palunghahaih loklam loe nawm moe, a caehhaih loklamnawk boih ah monghaih to oh.
17Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
18Palunghahaih loe palunghahaih patawn kami hanah hinghaih thingkung ah oh; palunghahaih tawn kami loe tahamhoih.
18She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.
19Angraeng mah long hae palunghahaih hoiah ni sak; vannawk doeh panoekhaih hoiah a suek.
19The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.
20Kathuk parai tuipuinawk to a palunghahaih hoiah tapraek moe, tamai thung hoiah dantuinawk to a kraksak.
20By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew.
21Ka capa, palunghahaih hoi panoekhaih to na hmaa hoiah amkhraengsak ving hmah; pakuem poe ah.
21¶ My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion:
22To tiah na sak nahaeloe na pakhra hinghaih ah om ueloe, na tahnong kranghoihaih bungmu ah om tih.
22So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck.
23Kholong caeh naah raihaih na tawn mak ai; khok doeh na pathuih mak ai.
23Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble.
24Na iih naah zithaih na tawn mak ai; ue, kahnaep ah na iip thai tih.
24When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet.
25Tasoehhaih na tawn mak ai, kahoih ai kaminawk mah parohaih doeh na tong mak ai.
25Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh.
26Angraeng loe nam haahaih ah om ueloe, dongh pongah amanh han ai ah na khoknawk to patawn tih.
26For the LORD shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken.
27Na ban ah sakthaihaih na tawnh naah, kahoih hmuen sak pae han krak, tiah na poek ih kami nuiah kahoih hmuen to sah ai ah om hmah.
27¶ Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do it .
28Na imtaeng kami han paek koi hmuen na tawnh, toe anih khaeah vaihi loe amlaem raeh, khawnbang nang zoh let naah kang paek han hmang, tiah thui hmah.
28Say not unto thy neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee.
29Nang oephaih hoiah khosah na imtaeng kami khaeah, kasae sak han atim hmah.
29Devise not evil against thy neighbour, seeing he dwelleth securely by thee.
30Na nuiah sethaih sah ai kami to, tidoeh na ai ah zoeh hmah.
30¶ Strive not with a man without cause, if he have done thee no harm.
31Pacaekthlaek kami ih hmuen to ut hmah loe, a caehhaih loklam to awt hmah.
31¶ Envy thou not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways.
32Poek angkawnh kaminawk loe Angraeng mah panuet; toe poektoeng kaminawk loe angmah hoi nawnto angkomhaih to a sak.
32For the froward is abomination to the LORD : but his secret is with the righteous.
33Angraeng tangoenghaih loe kahoih ai kaminawk imthung ah phak, toe katoeng kaminawk ohhaih ahmuen loe Angraeng mah tahamhoihaih paek.
33¶ The curse of the LORD is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the habitation of the just.
34Minawk pahnui thuih kami to anih mah pahnui thuih toeng, toe kami tlim ah khosah kaminawk khaeah loe tahmenhaih to a paek.
34Surely he scorneth the scorners: but he giveth grace unto the lowly.
35Palungha kaminawk loe lensawkhaih to toepsak; toe amthu kaminawk loe azatsak.
35The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools.
