King James Version with Apocrypha
Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found?
1Te koinih pumsa ah a pa Abraham loh a hmuh te metla n'thui uh eh?
2For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God.
2Abraham he khoboe loh tang sak koinih thangpomnah a khueh, Tedae Pathen taengkah moenih,
3For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.
3Te dongah cacim loh balae a thui? Abraham loh Pathen te a tangnah dongah anih te duengnah la a nawt,
4Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
4A saii dongkah thapang te lungvatnah la n'nawt pawt vetih a laiba banghui ni te.
5But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
5Saii pawt dae baltalh aka tang sak kung soah a tangnah vaengkah tangnah te duengnah la a nawt pah.
6Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
6David long pataeng khaw, “Khoboe kah voelah Pathen loh duengnah la a nawt pah hlang te tah yoethennah ni,” a ti.
7Saying , Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
7Olaeknah loh a hlah tih a tholh a muekdah pah rhoek te tah a yoethen uh.
8Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
8Boeipa loh tholh a nawt pah voel pawt hlang te tah a yoethen,
9Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only , or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.
9Tangkhuet la, “He yoethennah tah yahvinrhetnah soah pawt atah pumdul ham a?” n'ti uh vaengah Abraham kah a tangnah te ni duengnah la a nawt pah.
10How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.
10Te vaengah metlam a nawt pah? yahvinrhetnah a om vaengah a? Pumdul vaengah a? yahvinrhetnah vaengah pawt tih pumdul vaengah ni.
11And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:
11Te dongah yahvinrhetnah he miknoek la a dang te pumdul vaengkah aka tangnah kah duengnah kutnoek ni. Anih te pumdul lamloh aka tangnah rhoek boeih kah a napa la om sak ham neh amih te khaw duengnah la nawt ham ni ana khueh.
12And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised.
12Te phoeiah, yahvinrhetnah kah pa he, yahvinrhetnah bueng kah pawt tih a pa Abraham pumdul vaeng kah tangnah kholaeh te aka vai rhoek ham khaw a om sak.
13For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
13Abraham neh a tiingan te Diklai rhopangkung la om ham te olkhueng nen pawt tih tangnah kah duengnah nen ni olkhueh a paek.
14For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:
14Olkhueng rhang neh rhopangkung la om koinih, tangnah te tlongtlai tih olkhueh te a hmil coeng.
15Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.
15Olkhueng loh thintoek a thoeng sak dae olkhueng a om na pawt ah boekoeknah a om moenih,
16Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,
16A lungvatnah vanbangla olkhueh kah tiingan boeih taengah a khangmai la om sak ham khaw tangnah nen ni a om tangloeng. Olkhueng kah tiingan taeng bueng ah pawt tih Abraham kah tangnah kah tiingan taengah khaw a om sak. Amah tah mamih boeih kah napa la om.
17(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
17Namtom rhoek boeih kah napa la nang kan coelh tila a daek tangtae vanbangla anih loh a tangnah hlan ah aka duek rhoek te aka hing sak tih, aka om pawt te aka om bangla aka khue, Pathen te om lamhma coeng.
18Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.
18Anih tah a ngaiuepnah voel ah a ngaiuep tih a tangnah dongah namtom rhoek boeih kah napa la om ni tila a thui vanbangla nang kah tiingan te om van ni.
19And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara’s womb:
19Kum yacut pakhat lo tih aka duek tangtae amah pum neh Sarah kah bung duekrhok te a poek dae tangnah dongah a thathae pawh,
20He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;
20Tedae Pathen kah olkhueh soah hnalvalnah neh boelhkhoeh pawt tih tangnah neh a thaphoh,
21And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.
21Pathen te thangpomnah a paek vaengah olkhueh te aka rhoi thai khaw amah ni tila m'ming.
22And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.
22Te dongah anih te duengnah la a nawt,
23Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him;
23Tedae anih taengah a nawt te amah bueng ham a daek pah moenih,
24But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;
24Tedae mamih ham khaw, duek lamkah aka thoo mamih kah Boeipa Jesuh aka tangnah rhoek ham khaw amah te a nawt coeng.
25Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.
25Amah te mamih kah tholhdalhnah kongah a voeih tih mamih kah tiktamnah ham a thoh coeng.
