Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children.
1Te dongah thintlo a ca rhoek vanbangla Pathen kah mueiloh la om uh.
2Walk in love, even as Christ also loved us and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.
2Khrih loh mamih n'lungnah dongah mamih yueng la nawnnah neh Pathen taengah hmueih botui kah a bova la amah a tloeng uh bangla lungnah dongah pongpa uh.
3But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints;
3Hlangcim rhoek neh a tingtawk vanbangla nangmih taengah Cukhalnah neh rhongingnah boeih khaw, halhkanah khaw phoei boel saeh.
4nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not appropriate, but rather giving of thanks.
4Yahrhai neh anglat ol khaw saipaat ol te khaw a koihhilh moenih. Tedae uemonah tah lat khueh uh.
5Know this for sure, that no sexually immoral person, nor unclean person, nor covetous man (who is an idolater), has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and God.
5He aka ming long tah hlanghalh, hlang thae neh halhka te khaw boeih na hmat uh. Amah mueibawk neh aka om loh Khrih neh Pathen kah ram ah rho a khueh moenih.
6Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.
6Nangmih te a hong ol neh m'hmilhmak boel saeh. He rhoek kongah Pathen kah kosi loh althanah kah a ca rhoek te a thoeng thil coeng.
7Therefore don’t be partakers with them.
7Te dongah amih taengah aka cut la om uh boeh.
8For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,
8Hnukbuet ah yinnah neh na om uh. Tedae Boeipa dongkah vangnah dongah vangnah kah ca rhoek bangla pongpa laeh.
9for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth,
9Vangnah kah a thaih tah a cungkuem dongah boethennah, duengnah neh oltak la poeh.
10proving what is well pleasing to the Lord.
10Boeipa kah kolo la aka om te khaw soepsoei uh.
11Have no fellowship with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather even reprove them.
11Yinnah khuikah a tlongtlai bibi dongah thum uh boeh. Tedae lat ah toeltham pa uh pataeng.
12For it is a shame even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.
12Amih loh a huephael ah a saii te thui ham pataeng rhaidaeng la om.
13But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, for everything that reveals is light.
13Tedae vangnah loh a toeltham boeih tah phoe coeng.
14Therefore he says, “Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
14Aka phoe boeih tah vangnah ni. Te dongah, “Aka ip te haeng lamtah aka duek rhoek taeng lamloh thoo laeh. Te daengah ni Khrih loh nangmih n'tue eh?,” a ti pai.
15Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise,
15Te dongah na pongpa uh te khaw khaeh khaeh dawn uh. Hlangang banglam pawt tih hlangcueih la om uh.
16redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
16Khohnin tah a thae la a om dongah a tue te tlan uh.
17Therefore, don’t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
17Te dongah hlang ang la om uh boeh. Tedae Boeipa kah kongaih te tah hmuhming uh.
18Don’t be drunken with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,
18Te phoeiah a khuiah cungpoehnah aka om misurtui te rhui uh boeh. Tedae Mueihla neh baetawt uh.
19speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs; singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
19Khat neh khat tingtoeng lung, bawknah laa, mueihla laa neh toidal uh. Boeipa te na thinko kah laa sak neh hlai uh.
20giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;
20A cungkuem dongah mamih kah Boeipa Jesuh Khrih ming neh apa Pathen te uem taitu uh.
21subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of Christ.
21Khrih rhihnah dongah khat neh khat boengai uh.
22Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
22Huta rhoek aw, Boeipa taengkah bangla a va rhoek taengah boengai saeh.
23For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body.
23Khrih tah hlangboel kah lu la om tih amah te pum kah khangkung la a om van bangla va he yuu kah a lu la om.
24But as the assembly is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything.
24Tedae hlangboel loh Khrih taengah boe a ngai bangla yuu rhoek te khaw a cungkuem ah va rhoek taengla boengai van saeh.
25Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly and gave himself up for her,
25tongpa rhoek, Khrih loh hlangboel te a lungnah tih anih ham amah a voeih uh van bangla yuu rhoek te lungnah uh.
26that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,
26Te daengah ni ol neh tui dongkah silhnah dongah aka ciim uh te khaw a cimcaih eh.
27that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without defect.
27Te daengah ni hlangboel te amah loh a taengah rhuepom la a pai sak eh. A tihnai neh mikmuelhnah neh te bang te pakhat khaw khueh boel saeh. Tedae a cim neh cuemthuek la om saeh.
28Even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself.
28Te dongah tongpa rhoek long khaw a yuu rhoek te amah kah pum bangla a lungnah ham a kuek. Amah aka lungnah loh a yuu te a lungnah.
29For no man ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord also does the assembly,
29Amah pumsa aka hmuhuet he a om noek moenih. Tedae Khrih loh hlangboel ham a saii van bangla amah pum te a cuncah tih a yuhyam.
30because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones.
30A pum dongkah a pumrho la n'om uh.
31“For this cause a man will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife. Then the two will become one flesh.”
31Te dongah tongpa loh a manu neh a napa te a imphael tak ni. Te vaengah a yuu taengah kap vetih panit te pumsa khat la om ni.
32This mystery is great, but I speak concerning Christ and the assembly.
32He olhuep tah olpuei la om. Tedae kai loh Khrih neh hlangboel taengkah bangla ka thui.
33Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
33Tedae nangmih khaw khat rhip loh amah yuu te amah bangla lungnah van saeh. Huta long khaw a va te hinyah saeh.
