1Jesuh Khrih kah thongtla Paul neh Timothy loh manuca neh kaimih kah thintlo neh bibipuei Philimon,
1Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our beloved fellow worker,
2ka ngannu Apphia neh kaimih kah rhalkappuei Arklipas neh nang im kah hlangboel taengah kan yaak sak.
2to the beloved Apphia, to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the assembly in your house:
3Mamih kah Pa Pathen neh Boeipa Jesuh Khrih taeng lamkah Lungvatnah neh ngaimongnah nangmih taengah om saeh.
3Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4Ka thangthuinah takuem ah nang kah na saii te ka poek taitu tih ka Pathen te ka uem.
4I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers,
5Boeipa Jesuh so neh hlang cim rhoek boeih soah nangmih kah lungnah neh tangnah na khueh uh te ka yaak.
5hearing of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints,
6Te daengah ni mamih ah Khrih ham a then mingnah cungkuem neh na tangnah dongkah rhoinaengnah te khuekcet la a om eh.
6that the fellowship of your faith may become effective in the knowledge of every good thing which is in us in Christ Jesus.
7Nang kah lungnah dongah omngaihnah neh thaphohnah muep ka khueh coeng. Manuca na saeh, nang rhangneh hlangcim rhoek kah a kotak tah paang caih uh coeng.
7For we have much joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother.
8Te dongah a tueng te tah Khrih ah sayalhnah muep khueh sak ham ni nang n'tueih.
8Therefore though I have all boldness in Christ to command you that which is appropriate,
9Patong bangla aka om Paul long he lungnah neh lat kan hloep.
9yet for love’s sake I rather appeal to you, being such a one as Paul, the aged, but also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
10Tedae Khrih Jesuh kah thongtla long khaw ka ca ham te nang kan hloep coeng. Amah Onesima he hloong dongah ni ka sak.
10I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whom I have become the father of in my chains,
11Anih te hnukbuet ah nang ham a hoeihae coeng dae, tahae atah nang ham neh kai ham khaw congpang coeng.
11who once was useless to you, but now is useful to you and to me.
12Anih te nang tengah kan tueih. Te ni ka kotak ah aka om.
12I am sending him back. Therefore receive him, that is, my own heart,
13Anih te ka taengla khueh ka ngaih. Te daengah ni olthangthen kah hloong khuiah khaw nang yueng la kai m'bongyong eh.
13whom I desired to keep with me, that on your behalf he might serve me in my chains for the Good News.
14Tedae nang kah mingpueinah pawt atah saii ka ngaih moenih. Te daengah ni nang a then loh kueknah lam pawt tih, namah kongaih ningla a om eh.
14But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will.
15Tahae kah hnin at na paek uh rhoi dongah anih te dungyan na dang khaming.
15For perhaps he was therefore separated from you for a while that you would have him forever,
16Anih he sal voel pawt tih sal lakah olpuei la kai ham tah thintlo manuca la om coeng. Pumsa neh Boeipa ah nang ham muep lat hoekhang coeng.
16no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother—especially to me, but how much rather to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.
17Te dongah kai he pueipo la nan khueh atah kai bangla anih te doe.
17If then you count me a partner, receive him as you would receive me.
18Tedae nang soah thae tih lai a ba khoem atah te te kai hut la nawt laeh.
18But if he has wronged you at all or owes you anything, put that to my account.
19Kai Paul loh kamah kut neh kan daek coeng. Kamah loh kan sah bitni. Te te nang taengah, 'Nang khaw kai lai na ba van,’ ka ti moenih.
19I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self besides).
20Thuem pai, manuca nang, kai tah nang lamlong ni Boeipa dongah ka hoeikhang. Ka kotak tah Khrih ah mong coeng.
20Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in the Lord.
21Nang kah olngainah te ka pangtung dongah ni nang taengah kan daek. Ka thui te a pueh la na saii pataeng ni tila ka ming.
21Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even beyond what I say.
22Pahoi ah kai ham khaw pahnah rhoekbah lah. Nangmih kah thangthuinah rhangneh nangmih khodawkngai ham te ka ngaiuep.
22Also, prepare a guest room for me, for I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you.
23Jesuh Khrih kongah kai kah thongtlapuei Epaphras,
23Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you,
24kai kah bibipuei rhoek Marku, Aristarkhu, Demas neh Luka loh nang te kut n'tuuk uh.
24as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers.
25Boeipa Jesuh Khrih kah lungvatnah tah nangmih kah mueihla neh om saeh.
25The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
