Rom 10
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Berean Standard Bible
1Nawkamyanawk, Israelnawk pahlonghaih hnuk hanah, palung thungah koehhaih oh pongah, Sithaw khaeah lawk ka thuih pae.
1Brothers, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is for their salvation.
2Nihcae loe Sithaw azom o, tiah ka hnuk, toe panoekhaih bangah khodai o ai.
2For I testify about them that they are zealous for God, but not on the basis of knowledge.
3Nihcae loe Sithaw toenghaih to pahnawt o moe, Sithaw toenghaih ah amha o ai ah, angmacae toenghaih to sak hanah pakrong o lat.
3Because they were ignorant of God’s righteousness and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.
4Tang kaminawk boih toenghaih hnuk thai hanah, Kri loe kaalok boenghaih ah oh.
4For Christ is the end of the law, to bring righteousness to everyone who believes.
5Mosi mah, To hmuennawk sah pazui kami loe to hmuennawk sak pazuihaih rang hoiah hing tih, tiah kaalok rang hoiah kaom toenghaih kawng to tarik.
5For concerning the righteousness that is by the law, Moses writes: “The man who does these things will live by them.”
6Toe tanghaih rang hoiah kaom toenghaih mah loe, (Kri to ranui bang hoiah hoih tathuk hanah,) Mi maw van ah daw tahang tih? tiah na palung thung hoiah thui hmah:
6But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down)
7to tih ai boeh loe, (Duekhaih thung hoi Kri pathawk let hanah,) Mi maw kathuk thungah angthum tathuk tih? tiah thui hmah, tiah thuih.
7or, ‘Who will descend into the Abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).”
8Kawbangah maw a thuih tih nahaeloe, Lok loe na taengah oh, na pakha hoi na palung thungah oh: to lok loe aicae mah a thuih o ih, tanghaih lok to ni;
8But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming:
9Jesu loe Angraeng ni, tiah pakha hoi na taphong moe, Sithaw mah Anih to duekhaih thung hoiah pathawk let boeh, tiah palung thung hoi na tang nahaeloe, pahlong ah na om tih.
9that if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
10Palung thung hoi tang naah toenghaih to oh; pakha hoi taphong naah pahlonghaih to oh.
10For with your heart you believe and are justified, and with your mouth you confess and are saved.
11Mi kawbaktih doeh Anih tang kami loe azathaih tongh mak ai, tiah Cabu mah thuih.
11It is just as the Scripture says: “Anyone who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”
12Anih kawk kaminawk boih nuiah paawt ai ah kapaek Angraeng maeto khue ni oh, to pongah Judah hoi Grik lahhaih to om ai boeh.
12For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: The same Lord is Lord of all, and gives richly to all who call on Him,
13Mi kawbaktih doeh Angraeng hmin kawk kami loe pahlong ah om tih.
13for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
14To tiah nahaeloe tanghaih tawn ai kaminawk mah anih to kawbangmaw kawk o tih? Nihcae mah thaihaih tawn ai ah kawbangmaw Anih to tang o tih? Lok thui kami om ai ah kawbangmaw nihcae mah thaih o tih?
14How then can they call on the One in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe in the One of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone to preach?
15Nihcae to patoeh ai ah kawbangmaw nihcae mah thui o tih? Angdaehhaih kahoih tamthanglok thui kami hoi khosak kahoih anghoehaih tamthang sin kaminawk ih khok loe kawkrukmaw kranghoih! tiah tarik ih oh.
15And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
16Toe nihcae boih mah kahoih tamthanglok to tang o ai. Tahmaa Isaiah mah, Angraeng, ka thuih o ih lok tang kami oh maw? tiah thuih.
16But not all of them welcomed the good news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”
17Tanghaih loe thaihhaih hoiah angzoh, thaihhaih loe Sithaw lok hoiah oh.
17Consequently, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.
18Toe nihcae loe thaih o ai maw? A thaih o boeh, Nihcae ih lok loe long pum ah phak boeh, a thuih o ih loknawk doeh long boenghaih khoek to phak boeh, tiah ka thuih.
18But I ask, did they not hear? Indeed they did: “Their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.”
19Hae tiah ka thuih, Israel kaminawk loe panoek o ai maw? Hmaloe koekah Mosi mah, Acaeng kami ah kaom ai kaminawk to kang utsak moe, amthu kaminawk hoiah palung kang phui o sak han, tiah thuih.
19I ask instead, did Israel not understand? First, Moses says: “I will make you jealous by those who are not a nation; I will make you angry by a nation without understanding.”
20Tahmaa Isaiah mah, Kai pakrong ai kaminawk mah Kai ang hnuk o; Kai khaeah hni ai kaminawk khaeah Kam tueng pae, tiah misa hoihhaih hoiah lokthuih.
20And Isaiah boldly says: “I was found by those who did not seek Me; I revealed Myself to those who did not ask for Me.”
21Toe Israel kaminawk khaeah loe anih mah, Lok tahngai ai kaminawk hoi lokaek kaminawk khaeah, athun qui ban ka payangh, tiah thuih.
21But as for Israel he says: “All day long I have held out My hands to a disobedient and obstinate people.”
