1Patong te tluung boeh. Tedae pa pakhat bangla, tanoe thai manuca bangla hloephoelh lah.
1Don’t rebuke an older man, but exhort him as a father; the younger men as brothers;
2Hamca te manu bangla, tanoe rhoek te ngannu rhoek bangla cilpoenah cungkuem neh hloep.
2the elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, in all purity.
3Nuhmai rhoek khaw nuhmai taktak te tah hinyah lah.
3Honor widows who are widows indeed.
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 any widow has children or grandchildren, let them learn first to show piety toward their own family and to repay their parents, for this is acceptable 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.
5Now she who is a widow indeed and desolate, has her hope set on God and continues in petitions and prayers night and day.
6Tedae omthen aka bawn tah a hing pueng thuem ah duek coeng.
6But she who gives herself to pleasure is dead while she lives.
7Te rhoek khaw na uen daengah ni hmabuet la a om uh eh.
7Also command these things, that they may be without 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.
8But if anyone doesn’t 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,
9Let no one be enrolled as a widow under sixty years old, having been 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.
10being approved by good works, if she has brought up children, if she has been hospitable to strangers, if she has washed the saints’ feet, if she has relieved the afflicted, and if she has diligently followed every good work.
11Tedae a haw vaengah tah Khrih hmanah vasak a ngaih dongah nuhmai tanoe rhoek te rhoe dae.
11But refuse younger widows, for when they have grown wanton against Christ, they desire to marry,
12Lamhma kah tangnah te a phae uh dongah laitloeknah a yook uh.
12having condemnation, because they have rejected their first pledge.
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.
13Besides, they also learn to be idle, going about from house to house. Not only idle, but also gossips and busybodies, saying things which they ought not.
14Te dongah tanoe rhoek tah vasak sak ham, cacun sak ham, cangbam sak ka ngaih. Thuithetnah dongah thimkalh te rhoirhinah paek ham moenih.
14I desire therefore that the younger widows marry, bear children, rule the household, and give no occasion to the adversary for insulting.
15Hlangvang loh Satan hnukah oepsoeh la hoi uh.
15For already some have turned away after 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 man or woman who believes has widows, let them relieve them, and don’t let the assembly be burdened, that it might relieve those who are widows indeed.
17A then la aka mawt patong neh olpuei la olka neh thuituennah dongah aka thakthae rhoek tah rhaepnit la hinyahnah ham tueng pai.
17Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and in teaching.
18Cacim loh a ti coeng ta. Cangtil vaito pin boeh, “Bibikung tah a thapang nen khaw tiing pai.”
18For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle the ox when it treads out the grain.” And, “The laborer is worthy of his wages.”
19Laipai panit pathum pawt atah a ham kah lai te doe boeh.
19Don’t receive an accusation against an elder except at the word of two or three witnesses.
20Aka tholh rhoek te hlang boeih hmaiah na toeltham daengah ni a tloe long khaw rhihnah a khueh eh.
20Those who sin, reprove in the sight of all, that the rest also may be in fear.
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 command you in the sight of God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the chosen angels, that you observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality.
22Kut he tokrhat la tloeng thil boeh. Hlanglang rhoek kah tholhnah te boek pah boeh. Namah te a cuem la tuem uh.
22Lay hands hastily on no one. Don’t be a participant in other people’s sins. Keep yourself pure.
23Tui bueng te o boeh. Tedae na bung dongah puet na tloh te khaw misurtui bet saem pah.
23Be no longer a drinker of water only, but use a little wine for your stomach’s sake and your frequent infirmities.
24Hlang a ngen kah tholhnah tah laitloeknah la a pha hlanah lohaa coeng. Tedae a ngen kah tah a hnong pah.
24Some men’s sins are evident, preceding them to judgment, and some also follow later.
25Khoboe then khaw lohaa van. Te dongah thuh hamla tloekloek aka om rhoek loh noeng uh pawh.
25In the same way also there are good works that are obvious, and those that are otherwise can’t be hidden.
