Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and wilt hide my commandments with thee,
1Ka ca, ka ol na doe tih ka olpaek he na khuiah na khoem atah,
2That thy ear may hearken to wisdom: Incline thy heart to know prudence:
2Cueihnah te na hna neh hnatung lamtah na lungbuei te lungcuei taengla maelh.
3For if thou shalt call for wisdom, and incline thy heart to prudence:
3Yakmingnah ham te khue tih lungcuei ham na ol na huel atah,
4If thou shalt seek her as money, and shalt dig for her as for a treasure:
4Te te cak bangla na moeh tih kawn bangla na thaih atah,
5Then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and shalt find the knowledge of God.
5BOEIPA hinyahnah te yakming lamtah Pathen kah mingnah te dang van.
6Because the Lord giveth wisdom: and out of his mouth cometh prudence and knowledge.
6BOEIPA long tah a ka dong lamkah cueihnah ni mingnah neh lungcuei la a paek.
7He will keep the salvation of the righteous, and protect them that walk in simplicity.
7Aka thuem ham tah lungming cueihnah khaw a khoem a khoem pah tih thincaknah neh aka cet ham photling la om.
8Keeping the paths of justice, and guarding the ways of saints.
8Tiktamnah kah caehlong te a kueinah tih a hlangcim, hlangcim kah longpuei tah a ngaithuen pah.
9Then shalt thou understand justice, and judgment, and equity, and every good path.
9Te daengah ni duengnah, tiktamnah, vanat la namtlak then boeih te na yakming eh.
10If wisdom shall enter into thy heart, and knowledge please thy soul:
10Cueihnah te na lungbuei khuila ha kun vaengah mingnah loh na hinglu te a hmae sak ni.
11Counsel shall keep thee, and prudence shall preserve thee,
11Thuepnah loh nang te n'ngaithuen vetih lungcuei loh nang n'kueinah ni.
12That thou mayst be delivered from the evil way, and from the man that speaketh perverse things:
12Boethae longpuei lamkah khaw, calaak ol aka thui hlang taeng lamkah khaw nang ng'huul ni.
13Who leave the right way, and walk by dark ways:
13Hmaisuep longpuei ah pongpa hamla, a dueng caehlong a toeng.
14Who are glad when they have done evil, and rejoice in most wicked things:
14Boethae saii ham ko aka hoe loh boethae calaak dongah omngaih uh.
15Whose ways are perverse, and their steps infamous.
15A caehlong aka paihaeh sak rhoek loh a namtlak ah kho a hmang.
16That thou mayst be delivered from the strange women, and from the stranger, who softeneth her words:
16Kholong hlanglak nu taeng lamkah neh anih kah hoem ol khui lamloh nang aka huul ham ni.
17And forsaketh the guide of her youth,
17A camoe kah a boeihlum te a hnoo tih a Pathen kah paipi te a hnilh.
18And hath forgotten the covenant of her God: for her house inclineth unto death, and her paths to hell.
18A imkhui khaw duek hamla aka a namtlak khaw sairhai taengla ngooi coeng.
19None that go in unto her shall return again, neither shall they take hold of the paths of life,
19Anih taengla aka pawk boeih tah ha mael uh voel pawt dae hingnah caehlong khaw kae uh hae pawh.
20That thou mayst walk in a good way: and mayst keep the paths of the just.
20Te daengah ni hlang then longpuei ah na pongpa vetih hlang dueng kah caehlong khaw na ngaithuen eh.
21For they that are upright shall dwell in the earth, and the simple shall continue in it.
21Aka thuem rhoek long tah khohmuen te kho a sak uh thil vetih a khuiah kodam la sueng uh ni.
22But the wicked shall be destroyed from the earth: and they that do unjustly shall be taken away from it.
22Tedae halang rhoek tah khohmuen lamloh a hnawt uh vetih hnukpoh rhoek khaw a khui lamkah a phuk uh ni.
