King James Version with Apocrypha
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
1Qawktoepkung loe hmuennawk boih tawnkung ah om cadoeh, nawkta ah oh nathung tamna hoi lahhaih om ai;
2But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
2anih loe ampa mah khaeh ih atue pha ai karoek to patukkung hoi ukkung ban thungah ni oh.
3Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
3To baktih toengah, aicae doeh nawkta ah a oh o naah, long atawk tlim ah ni misong ah a oh o.
4But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
4Toe atue phak naah loe, Sithaw mah a Capa to patoeh, nongpata zok thungah pomh moe, kaalok thungah tapen,
5To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
5to tiah ni kaalok thungah kaom kaminawk to pahlong ueloe, a nih ih caa ah oh thaihaih to a hnu o tih.
6And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
6Nangcae loe caa ah na oh o pongah, Sithaw mah a Capa ih Muithla to nangcae palung thungah patoeh, Anih mah Abba, Pa, tiah kawk.
7Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
7To pongah nangcae loe tamna na ai boeh ni, capa maeto ah ni na oh o boeh; capa maeto ah na oh o boeh loe, Kri rang hoiah Sithaw ih qawktoep kami ah ni na oh o boeh.
8Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.
8Sithaw na panoek o ai naah, taksa ah Sithaw tawn ai kaminawk ih tok to na sak pae o.
9But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
9Toe tipongah vaihi Sithaw na panoek o moe, Sithaw mah ang panoek o pacoengah, tha kacak ai, amtanghaih hmuen bangah angqoi moe, misong ah oh let han na koeh o loe?
10Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.
10Ani, akhrah, khotue hoi saningnawk to na uum o.
11I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.
11Nangcae nuiah azom pui ah tha ka pathok moeng tih, tiah mawnhaih ka tawnh.
12Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am ; for I am as ye are : ye have not injured me at all.
12Nawkamyanawk, nangcae baktiah ka oh pongah, kai baktiah na oh o toeng hanah tahmenhaih kang hnik o: ka nuiah na sakpazaehaih roe tidoeh om ai.
13Ye know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first.
13Nangcae khaeah kahoih tamthanglok ka thuih tangsuek naah, taksa thacak ai hoiah ni kang thuih o, tito na panoek o.
14And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
14Ka taksa ah kaom raihaih pongah kai khet nang patoek o ai moe, nang pakak o ai; Sithaw ih van kami baktih, Kri Jesu baktiah nang talawk o.
15Where is then the blessedness ye spake of? for I bear you record, that, if it had been possible, ye would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.
15To baktih nangcae tahamhoih anghoehaih to naa ah maw oh ving boeh? Angcoeng thai nahaeloe, kai paek hanah nangmacae ih mik mataeng doeh taprok dok han koek to na koeh o, tito ka panoek.
16Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?
16Loktang lok kang thuih o pongah, nangcae ih misa ah maw ka oh boeh?
17They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.
17Nihcae mah nangcae palung parai baktiah mikhmai na pan o thuih doeh om tih, toe kahoihah na palung o tangtang ai; ue, nihcae mah nangcae palung han koeh ih na ai ah, nangcae mah nihcae palung han ih ni a koeh o.
18But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing , and not only when I am present with you.
18Nangcae hoi nawnto ka oh nathuem khue ai, kahoih hmuen bangah loe amlung poe han oh.
19My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,
19Palung ih ka caanawk, Kri nangcae thungah kacakah om ai karoek to, nawkta zah nathuem ih zok kana baktiah ni kana ka pauep let.
20I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand in doubt of you.
20Nangcae nuiah palunghaenghaih ka tawnh pongah, vaihi nangcae khaeah kang zoh moe, lok ka thuihaih dan pakhraih han ka koeh.
21Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?
21Kaalok thungah oh koeh kaminawk, na thui oh, kaalok to na thaih o ai maw?
22For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.
22Abraham mah capa hnetto sak, maeto loe misong nongpata thung hoiah oh moe, kalah maeto loe kaloih nongpata thung hoiah oh, tiah tarik ih oh.
23But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.
23Toe misong nongpata ih capa loe taksa koehhaih baktiah sak ih capa ah oh; kaloih nongpata khae hoi kaom capa loe lokkamhaih baktiah sak ih capa ah oh.
24Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.
24To loknawk loe hnuksakhaih lok ah ni oh: to nongpata hnik loe lokmaihaih hnetto thuih koehhaih ih ni; Sinai mae nui hoiah kangzo lokmaihaih maeto loe Hagar ni, anih mah misong ah kaom capa to tapen.
25For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
25Hagar loe Arabia prae ah kaom Sinai mae ah oh, vaihi thuem ih Jerusalem hoiah anghmong, anih loe a caa hoi nawnto misong ah oh hoi.
26But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
26Toe ranui ah kaom Jerusalem loe kaloih nongpata, aicae boih ih amno ah oh.
27For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath an husband.
27Caa kaak, caa sah vai ai nongpata nang, anghoe ah; nawkta tapenhaih kana panoek vai ai nang, tha hoi hang ah: haek ih nongpata loe sava tawn nongpata pong pop kue ah caa sak, tiah tarik ih oh.
28Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
28Nawkamyanawk, aicae loe Isak baktiah lokkamhaih caa ah ni a oh o.
29But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.
29Toe taksa koehhaih ah tapen kami mah Kacai Muithla koehhaih ah tapen capa to pacaekthlaek, vaihi doeh to tiah ni oh.
30Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.
30Toe Cabu mah kawbangmaw thuih? Misong nongpata to a capa hoi nawnto haek ving ah: misong nongpata ih capa mah kaloih nongpata ih capa hoi nawnto qawktoepkung ah om mak ai, tiah thuih.
31So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.
31To pongah nawkamyanawk, aicae loe misong nongpata ih caa ah a om o ai, kaloih nongpata ih caa ah ni a oh o.
