1Ka manuca rhoek, saya la muep om uh boeh. Laitloeknah tanglue n'dang uh ni tila ming uh.
1Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment.
2Hlang boeih loh muep m'paloe uh coeng. Khat khat loh olka dongah a tongtah pawt atah, anih tah hlang lungcuei coeng ni. A pum tom khaw a tuem hamla coeng thai ni.
2For we all stumble in many things. Anyone who doesn’t stumble in word is a perfect person, able to bridle the whole body also.
3Marhang ka khuila kamrhui ng'khueh pah daengah ni amih te mamih taengah naem sak eh. Te phoeiah ni a pum tom khaw n'hoihaeng sak pueng.
3Indeed, we put bits into the horses’ mouths so that they may obey us, and we guide their whole body.
4Sangpho khaw ke, te tluk aih la om tih khohli puei loh a yawn mai. Lawngkaih ca neh a hoihaeng vaengah thathohnah loh a ngaih bangla a dueng sak.
4Behold, the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires.
5Lai khaw a pumrho a yit la om dae muep hoem van. Hmai pom loh duup puei a dom coeng ke.
5So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!
6Lai tah hmai ni, boethae kah Diklai ni. Lai tah mamih pumrho lamkah hmoel uh coeng. Te long te pum tom a nook tih, a rhuirhong a yung a pa te a hlup tih hell neh a hoeh.
6And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna.
7Satlung neh vaa kah a hui boeih, rhulcai neh tuisu khaw a mong vanbangla hlanghing coengnah te khaw a mong sak.
7For every kind of animal, bird, creeping thing, and sea creature is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind;
8Tedae lai he hlang kah a mong sak thai koi moenih. Boethae likloek, duek sue hoeng ni.
8but nobody can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
9Te nen te Boeipa neh pa te ng'uem uh tih, te nen Pathen kah suisak la a saii hlang rhoek te thae m'phoei uh.
9With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men who are made in the image of God.
10Ka amah lamkah yoethennah neh rhunkhuennah khaw thoeng. Ka manuca rhoek, a tueng pawt lam ni a om tangkuet te.
10Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
11Tuisih te a khui pakhat lamloh a didip neh a thanghap phuet sak pawt maco.
11Does a spring send out from the same opening fresh and bitter water?
12Ka manuca rhoek, thaibu loh olive, misur loh thaibu cuen sak thai pawt maco. A al loh tui te didip la a poeh sak moenih.
12Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh water.
13Nangmih khuiah, aka cueih tih aka thaai te unim? A bisai te omih then neh, cueihnah te muelhtuetnah neh tueng sak saeh.
13Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.
14Na thinko khuiah thatlainah a thanghap neh koevoeinah na khueh uh atah, oltak te na koevoei thil, na laithae uh thil moenih a?
14But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don’t boast and don’t lie against the truth.
15Tekah cueihnah tah a so lamkah aka suntla la om pawt tih, diklai rhaithae kah a coengnah ni.
15This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic.
16Thatlainah neh koevoeinah a om nah ah soekloeknah neh hno thae cungkuem om.
16For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.
17Tedae a so lamkah cueihnah tah lamhma tih cuem, te dongah ngaimong la, kodo la, mongkawt la om. Rhennah thaih then neh baetawt tih hmantang ah tangyah pawh.
17But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
18Duengnah kah a thaih tah rhoepnah neh aka tuh long ni rhoepnah a saii.
18Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
