Berean Standard Bible
1Patong te tluung boeh. Tedae pa pakhat bangla, tanoe thai manuca bangla hloephoelh lah.
1Do not rebuke an older man, but appeal to him as to a father. Treat younger men as brothers,
2Hamca te manu bangla, tanoe rhoek te ngannu rhoek bangla cilpoenah cungkuem neh hloep.
2older women as mothers, and younger women as sisters, with absolute purity.
3Nuhmai rhoek khaw nuhmai taktak te tah hinyah lah.
3Honor the widows who are truly widows.
4Tedae nuhmai khat khat loh a ca rhoek mai khaw a cadil rhoek mai khaw a khueh atah amah imkhui ah thothueng ham neh buhungnah te a manu napa taengah thuung ham lamhma la cang sak. He tah Pathen hmuhah mikcop la om.
4But if a widow has children or grandchildren, they must first learn to show godliness to their own family and repay their parents, for this is pleasing in the sight of God.
5Tedae nuhmai taktak tih aka omdam loh Pathen soah lat a ngaiuep tih rhenbihnah neh thangthuinah dongah khoyin khothaih om.
5The widow who is truly in need and left all alone puts her hope in God and continues night and day in her petitions and prayers.
6Tedae omthen aka bawn tah a hing pueng thuem ah duek coeng.
6But she who lives for pleasure is dead even while she is still alive.
7Te rhoek khaw na uen daengah ni hmabuet la a om uh eh.
7Give these instructions to the believers, so that they will be above reproach.
8Tedae khat khat loh amah huiko neh olpuei la imkhuikho te kho a khan pawt atah tangnah te a hno tih aka tangnahmueh lakah a thae la om.
8If anyone does not provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
9Nuhmai la hlum ham tah kum sawmrhuk hmuiah om mahpawh. Va pakhat bueng aka khueh huta,
9A widow should be enrolled if she is at least sixty years old, the wife of one man,
10Ca a khut atah, yinlai a sawtlet atah, hlangcim rhoek kah kho a silh atah, aka patang rhoek te a sawtlet atah, khoboe then cungkuem neh a rhoih atah khoboe then la phong pai saeh.
10and well known for good deeds such as bringing up children, entertaining strangers, washing the feet of the saints, imparting relief to the afflicted, and devoting herself to every good work.
11Tedae a haw vaengah tah Khrih hmanah vasak a ngaih dongah nuhmai tanoe rhoek te rhoe dae.
11But refuse to enroll younger widows. For when their passions draw them away from Christ, they will want to marry,
12Lamhma kah tangnah te a phae uh dongah laitloeknah a yook uh.
12and thus will incur judgment because they are setting aside their first faith.
13Te vaengah palyal khaw pahoi a cang uh , im te a hil uh. Te bueng pawt tih palyal neh hlangthet vueihnam, tomban rhuikha neh a kuek pawt te a thui uh.
13At the same time they will also learn to be idle, going from house to house and being not only idle, but also gossips and busybodies, discussing things they should not mention.
14Te dongah tanoe rhoek tah vasak sak ham, cacun sak ham, cangbam sak ka ngaih. Thuithetnah dongah thimkalh te rhoirhinah paek ham moenih.
14So I advise the younger widows to marry, have children, and manage their households, denying the adversary occasion for slander.
15Hlangvang loh Satan hnukah oepsoeh la hoi uh.
15For some have already turned aside to follow Satan.
16Uepom pakhat loh nuhmai rhoek a khueh atah amih te sawtlet saeh lamtah hlangboel te bakbahap boel saeh. Te daengah ni nuhmai tang rhoek te a sawtlet thai eh.
16If any believing woman has dependent widows, she must assist them and not allow the church to be burdened, so that it can help the widows who are truly in need.
17A then la aka mawt patong neh olpuei la olka neh thuituennah dongah aka thakthae rhoek tah rhaepnit la hinyahnah ham tueng pai.
17Elders who lead effectively are worthy of double honor, especially those who work hard at preaching and teaching.
18Cacim loh a ti coeng ta. Cangtil vaito pin boeh, “Bibikung tah a thapang nen khaw tiing pai.”
18For the Scripture says, “Do not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain,” and, “The worker is worthy of his wages.”
19Laipai panit pathum pawt atah a ham kah lai te doe boeh.
19Do not entertain an accusation against an elder, except on the testimony of two or three witnesses.
20Aka tholh rhoek te hlang boeih hmaiah na toeltham daengah ni a tloe long khaw rhihnah a khueh eh.
20But those who persist in sin should be rebuked in front of everyone, so that the others will stand in fear of sin.
21Pathen, Khrih Jesuh neh puencawn a coelh rhoek kah a hmaiah ka laipai. He rhoek he hlaangnah kolla tuem mai, maelhmai sawt nen khaw saii boeh.
21I solemnly charge you before God and Christ Jesus and the elect angels to maintain these principles without bias, and to do nothing out of partiality.
22Kut he tokrhat la tloeng thil boeh. Hlanglang rhoek kah tholhnah te boek pah boeh. Namah te a cuem la tuem uh.
22Do not be too quick in the laying on of hands and thereby share in the sins of others. Keep yourself pure.
23Tui bueng te o boeh. Tedae na bung dongah puet na tloh te khaw misurtui bet saem pah.
23Stop drinking only water and use a little wine instead, because of your stomach and your frequent ailments.
24Hlang a ngen kah tholhnah tah laitloeknah la a pha hlanah lohaa coeng. Tedae a ngen kah tah a hnong pah.
24The sins of some men are obvious, going ahead of them to judgment; but the sins of others do not surface until later.
25Khoboe then khaw lohaa van. Te dongah thuh hamla tloekloek aka om rhoek loh noeng uh pawh.
25In the same way, good deeds are obvious, and even the ones that are inconspicuous cannot remain hidden.
