1In like manner also let wives be subject to their husbands: that if any believe not the word, they may be won without the word, by the conversation of the wives.
1Te vanbangla huta rhoek te a va rhoek taengah boengai uh saeh. Te daengah ni khat khat loh olka te aek mai cakhaw a yuu rhoek kah omih rhangneh amih te ol mueh la a dang uh eh.
2Considering your chaste conversation with fear.
2Nangmih kah omih te rhihnah neh a cuem la hmuh uh saeh.
3Whose adorning let it not be the outward plaiting of the hair, or the wearing of gold, or the putting on of apparel:
3Nangmih kah a hmanhu ah sam toel tih sui, Diklai himbai, pueinak he tah thoeihcamnah la om boel saeh.
4But the hidden man of the heart in the incorruptibility of a quiet and a meek spirit, which is rich in the sight of God.
4Tedae hlang thinko kah a huephael ah aka kuei mueihla neh muelhtuet, dingsuek la thoeihcam uh. Te tah Pathen hmaiah a phu om.
5For after this manner heretofore the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands:
5Pathen aka ngaiuep noek huta cim rhoek khaw a va rhoek taengah boe a ngai uh nen ni amamih te a thoeihcam uh van.
6As Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters you are, doing well, and not fearing any disturbance.
6Sarah loh Abraham taengah ol a ngai vanbangla, anih te boeipa la a khue. A ca la na om uh dongah a thensai te rhih ham om pawt tih letnah khaw om pawh.
7Ye husbands, likewise dwelling with them according to knowledge, giving honour to the female as to the weaker vessel, and as to the co-heirs of the grace of life: that your prayers be not hindered.
7Tongpa rhoek aw, amih te mingnah neh khosak puei van. Tattloel hno neh a om vanbangla huta taengah hinyahnah tueng sak. Hingnah dongkah lungvatnah te aka pang hmaih la na om van daengah ni na thangthuinah te a tomta pawt eh.
8And in fine, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, being lovers of the brotherhood, merciful, modest, humble:
8A cuinah la, thikat la, hlang rhen kho neh, thintlo koeina, sitloh thimhalh, thindo kodo te boeih khueh uh laeh.
9Not rendering evil for evil, nor railing for railing, but contrariwise, blessing: for unto this are you called, that you may inherit a blessing.
9A boethae te boethae neh, thuithetnah te thuithetnah neh thuung uh boeh. Tedae a khuplat la uem uh, te ham te n'khue daengah ni yoethennah te na pang uh eh.
10For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile.
10Hingnah te aka lungnah tih khohnin then hmuh ham aka ngaih long tah a lai te a thae khui lamkah cuep saeh. A hmui te khaw tuengkhuepnah thui sak boel saeh.
11Let him decline from evil, and do good: let him seek after peace and pursue it:
11Te dongah a thae te rhael saeh lamtah a then te saii saeh. Rhoepnah te toem saeh lamtah hnuktlak saeh.
12Because the eyes of the Lord are upon the just, and his ears unto their prayers: but the countenance of the Lord upon them that do evil things.
12Boeipa mik loh aka dueng te a hmuhdam tih amih kah rhenbihnah benla hna a kaeng. Tedae thae aka saii te Boeipa kah maelhmai loh a mangthong tak.
13And who is he that can hurt you, if you be zealous of good?
13A then dongah aka hmae la na om uh atah u long nangmih te n'hnaep eh?
14But if also you suffer any thing for justice’ sake, blessed are ye. And be not afraid of their fear, and be not troubled.
14Tedae duengnah kongah na patang uh mai atah na yoethen uh. Tedae amih lamkah rhihnah te rhih uh boeh, thuen uh boeh.
15But sanctify the Lord Christ in your hearts, being ready always to satisfy every one that asketh you a reason of that hope which is in you.
15Tedae na thinko ah Khrih te Boeipa la hinyah uh. Nangmih khuikah ngaiuepnah kongah olka nangmih aka dawt boeih te olthungnah ham sikim la om yoeyah uh.
16But with modesty and fear, having a good conscience: that whereas they speak evil of you, they may be ashamed who falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.
16Tedae nangmih aka hnaep tih n'yan uh vaengah te Khrih ah omih then neh yahpoh sak ham a then la muelhtuetnah, rhihnah te mingcimnah neh khueh uh.
17For it is better doing well (if such be the will of God) to suffer, than doing ill.
17A thensai he then ta. Pathen kah kongaih loh a ngaih atah thae lakah patang he then ngai.
18Because Christ also died once for our sins, the just for the unjust: that he might offer us to God, being put to death indeed in the flesh, but enlivened in the spirit,
18Halang yueng la hlang dueng, Khrih tah tholhnah kongah vaikhat la patang coeng. Te daengah ni nangmih te Pathen taengla n'thak eh. Pumsa ah duek ngawn cakhaw mueihla ah hing coeng.
19In which also coming he preached to those spirits that were in prison:
19Te nen te thongim khuiah khaw cet tih mueihla rhoek taengah a hoe coeng.
20Which had been some time incredulous, when they waited for the patience of God in the days of Noe, when the ark was a building: wherein a few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water.
20Noah tue kah sangpho a rhoekbah vaengah thinsennah neh Pathen aka lamtawn loh ana aek noek coeng. Te khuiah a sii ngai parhet tah tui lamloh aka daem hinglu la ana om.
21Whereunto baptism being of the like form, now saveth you also: not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the examination of a good conscience towards God by the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
21Te tah baptisma dongah aka daem nangmih kah mueimae la om van coeng. Pumsa kah a tihnai capitnah ke pawt tih Jesuh Khrih kah thohkoepnah dongah a then la mingcimnah neh Pathen taengah m'bih ke ni.
22Who is on the right hand of God, swallowing down death, that we might be made heirs of life everlasting: being gone into heaven, the angels and powers and virtues being made subject to him.
22Amah tah Pathen kah bantang ah om. Vaan ah a pongpa vaengah puencawn rhoek, saithainah neh thaomnah te amah taengah boe a ngai sak.
