Berean Standard Bible
1Khrih ah oltak ka thui tih kai laithae moenih. Mueihla Cim ah ka mingcimnah te ka khuiah a phong.
1I speak the truth in Christ; I am not lying, as confirmed by my conscience in the Holy Spirit.
2Kothaenah loh kai taengah duel ha om tih lungnat loh ka thinko ah puh.
2I have deep sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart.
3Te dongah pumsa ah ka huiko ka manuca rhoek yueng la kamah rhoe Khrih lamloh ka paek uh vetih kosi yook ham ka thangthui.
3For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, my own flesh and blood,
4Amih tah Israel rhoek ni, cacah neh thangpomnah khaw, paipi rhoek neh olrhinah khaw, thothuengnah khaw, olkhueh khaw amih kah ni.
4the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption as sons; theirs the divine glory and the covenants; theirs the giving of the law, the temple worship, and the promises.
5A napa rhoek neh amih lamkah ni Khrih te pumsa ah ha thoeng. A cungkuem soah aka om Pathen tah kumhal ah uemom pai saeh. Amen.
5Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them proceeds the human descent of Christ, who is God over all, forever worthy of praise! Amen.
6Tedae Pathen kah olka tah hmata pawh. Israel he khaw Israel lamkah boeih noenih.
6It is not as though God’s word has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel.
7Abraham kah tiingan la a om uh dongah a ca boeih pawt dae Isaak ah na tiingan la a khue ni a ti ta.
7Nor because they are Abraham’s descendants are they all his children. On the contrary, “Through Isaac your offspring will be reckoned.”
8Te tah pumsa kah camoe la aka om pawt rhoek tah Pathen kah a ca rhoek la om. Tedae olkhueh kah ca rhoek tah a tiingan la a nawt.
8So it is not the children of the flesh who are God’s children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as offspring.
9He olkhueh ol loh, “A tue ah ka pawk vetih Sarah capa om ni,” a ti.
9For this is what the promise stated: “At the appointed time I will return, and Sarah will have a son.”
10Te bueng pawt tih Ribekka khaw a pa Isaak bueng nen ni a ihnah a om.
10Not only that, but Rebecca’s children were conceived by one man, our father Isaac.
11A cun hlan tih thae then pakhat khaw a saii uh moenih. Te daengah ni a coelh bangla Pathen kah mangtaengnah te a naeh eh.
11Yet before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad, in order that God’s plan of election might stand,
12Khoboe dongah pawt tih a khue rhangnen ni anih te, “Tanglue loh mathoe kah sal a bi ni,” a ti nah.
12not by works but by Him who calls, she was told, “The older will serve the younger.”
13A daek van bangla Jakob te ka lungnah tih Esau te ka hmuhuet coeng.
13So it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”
14Te koinih balae n'ti eh? Pathen he boethae pawt nim? Tlamte a om moenih.
14What then shall we say? Is God unjust? Certainly not!
15Moses te , “Ka rhen tangtae te tah ka rhen bal vetih ka sitloh tangtae te tah sitloh bal ni,” a ti nah.
15For He says to Moses: “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”
16Te dongah aka ngaih kah pawt tih aka yong kah tangloeng moenih. Tedae Pathen kah a rhen rhoek kah ni.
16So then, it does not depend on man’s desire or effort, but on God’s mercy.
17Cacim loh Pharaoh te, “Nang te amah la kan pacuet. Te daengah ni ka thaomnah te nang ah ka phoe eh. Te daengah ni diklai pum ah ka ming a doek eh?,” a ti nah.
17For the Scripture says to Pharaoh: “I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power in you, and that My name might be proclaimed in all the earth.”
18Te dongah a ngaih te a rhen tih a ngaih te a ning sak tangloeng.
18Therefore God has mercy on whom He wants to have mercy, and He hardens whom He wants to harden.
19Kai taengah na ti tangloeng te. Balae tih vawk a coel? Amah kah kongaih te unim aka kamkaih?
19One of you will say to me, “Then why does God still find fault? For who can resist His will?”
20Aw u hlang nang dae nim Pathen te oelh la naka om, a saii hno loh aka hlom aka bol kung te, “Balae tih kai nan saii van?” na ti nah pawt nim?
20But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? Shall what is formed say to Him who formed it, “Why did You make me like this?”
21Ambop loh amlai te a hlom boeiloeih dae he tah tuisi am la, ke tah am mailai la saithainah a khueh moenih a?
21Does not the potter have the right to make from the same lump of clay one vessel for special occasions and another for common use?
22Tedae Pathen loh a kosi sah ham neh a tatthai te phoe sak ham a ngaih. pocinah ham a hmoel kosi am te thinsennah neh muep ueh koinih ta?
22What if God, intending to show His wrath and make His power known, bore with great patience the vessels of His wrath, prepared for destruction?
23Te daengah ni amah kah thangpomnah cungkuem te rhennah am dongah a phoe sak tangloeng eh. Te ni thangpomnah la a hmoel.
23What if He did this to make the riches of His glory known to the vessels of His mercy, whom He prepared in advance for glory—
24Mamih khaw Judah rhoek lamkah bueng pawt tih namtom rhoek lamkah khaw a khue van ta.
24including us, whom He has called not only from the Jews, but also from the Gentiles?
25Hosea dongah, “Ka pilnam pawt te ka pilnam la, lungnah pawt te lungnah la ka khue ni.
25As He says in Hosea: “I will call them ‘My People’ who are not My people, and I will call her ‘My Beloved’ who is not My beloved,”
26Te vaengah amih te, 'Nangmih he ka pilnam moenih,’ a ti nah hmuen ah aka hing Pathen kah a ca rhoek la khue la om ni,” a ti van bangla,
26and, “It will happen that in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’”
27Isaiah long tah Israel ham, “Israel ca rhoek kah hlangmi tah tuitunli kah laivin bangla om cakhaw a meet ni a daem eh.
27Isaiah cries out concerning Israel: “Though the number of the Israelites is like the sand of the sea, only the remnant will be saved.
28Olka te soep vetih boeipa loh diklai ah tlek a saii ni,” tila pang.
28For the Lord will carry out His sentence on the earth thoroughly and decisively.”
29Te dongah Isaiah loh a thui vanbangla caempuei Boeipa loh mamih kah tiingan he hlun pawt koinih Sodom bangla n'om uh vetih Gomorrah neh n'thuidoek uh ni.
29It is just as Isaiah foretold: “Unless the Lord of Hosts had left us descendants, we would have become like Sodom, we would have resembled Gomorrah.”
30Te phoeiah balae n'thui eh? Duengnah aka hnuktlak pawh namtom rhoek loh duengnah a rhawt. Tedae duengnah tangnah nen ni a dang.
30What then will we say? That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained it, a righteousness that is by faith;
31Israel loh duengnah olkhueng te a hnuktlak dae olkhueng dongah a pai moenih.
31but Israel, who pursued a law of righteousness, has not attained it.
32U kongah lae? Tangnah nen pawt tih khoboe lamkah bangla caehkoek lungto te a tongtah uh.
32Why not? Because their pursuit was not by faith, but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone,
33A daek vanbangla Zion ah caehkoek lungto neh thangkui lungpang ka khueh ke. Tedae amah te aka tangnah tah yahpok mahpawh.
33as it is written: “See, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense; and the one who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”
