King James Version with Apocrypha
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.
1Ka capa, ka thuih ih loknawk hae pakuem ah, kang paek ih loknawk to palung thungah suem ah.
2Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.
2Kang paek ih loknawk to pakuemh loe, hing haih ah; kang patuk ih lok to na mikmu baktiah suem ah.
3Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.
3Na banpazung nuiah komh loe, na palung thungah tarik ah.
4Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:
4Palunghahaih khaeah, Nang loe ka tanuh baktiah na oh, tiah thui ah loe, panoekhaih khaeah, Nang loe ka canawk baktiah na oh, tiah thui ah;
5That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.
5to tiah na sak nahaeloe zaehaih sak koeh nongpata, minawk zoek thaih nongpata ban thung hoiah na pakaa tih.
6¶ For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,
6Ka im thokbuem hoi ka khet naah ka hnuk ih hmuen loe,
7And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
7poekhaih tawn ai kami rumramnawk thungah ka khet naah, thendoengnawk thungah, poekhaih tawn ai thendoeng maeto ka hnuk.
8Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,
8To kami loe nongpata ohhaih loklam im takii bang hoiah to nongpata ohhaih im bangah a caeh,
9In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:
9Duembang khoving, khoving qum taning tue phak naah loe,
10And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.
10khenah, tangzat zaw khukbuen angkhuk, minawk kazoek thaih nongpata loe anih hnuk hanah angzoh.
11(She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:
11To nongpata loe palungthah moe, lok doeh ho parai; anih loe angmah ih im ah doeh om vai ai.
12Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)
12Anih loe tasa bangah tacawt moe, kami angpophaih loklam, lam takii kruekah minawk to a zing.
13So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him,
13To nongpata mah anih to naeh moe, a mok; azathaih mikhmai tawn ai ah anih khaeah,
14I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows.
14misa angdaeh angbawnhaih sak han ka tawnh; vaihniah lokkamhaih ka koepsak boeh.
15Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.
15To pongah nang hnuk hanah kang zoh, palung tang hoi nang to kang pakrong, vaihi loe kang hnuk boeh.
16I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works , with fine linen of Egypt.
16Rong congca kaom Izip prae ih, puu kahni hoiah ka iihhaih ahmuen to ka khuk het boeh.
17I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
17Hmuihoih tui myrrh, aloe, cinnamon hoiah iihkhun to ka bawh boeh.
18Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves.
18Angzo ah, khawnbang khodai khoek to amlunghaih hoiah angkom hoi si; amlunghaih hoiah kanawm acaeng hoi si!
19For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey:
19Ka sava loe im ah om ai, angthla parai kholong ah a caeh ving.
20He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed.
20Anih loe phoisa tabu koi mongah phoisa to pacaeng pongah, khrah akoep ai karoek to im ah amlaem mak ai, tiah a naa.
21With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.
21Lokthuih kophaih hoiah anih to a zoek moe, kanaem lok hoiah anih to pazawk.
22He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;
22Anih loe boh hanah hoih ih maitaw, thaang kacawh tasuk baktiah to nongpata hnukah bang roep;
23Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.
23anih loe panoekhaih tamsi pongah, palaa mah anih ih pathin to kaat ai karoek to, dongh pongah kaman tavaa baktiah a hinghaih to boengsak.
24¶ Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.
24To pongah ka caanawk, ka lok to tahngai oh loe, ka thuih ih lok to pakuem oh.
25Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.
25To nongpata hnukah na poekhaih caeh o sak hmah loe, to nongpata ih loklam doeh pazui o hmah.
26For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her.
26Anih mah kami paroeai amtimsak boeh; ue, paroeai thacak kaminawk doeh anih mah hum boeh.
27Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
27Anih ih im loe hell caehhaih manglai lam ah oh moe, duekhaih imthung ah akun tathuk.
