Filipi 3
1 Nawkamyanawk, hnukkhuem koekah, Angraeng ah anghoe oh. Tarik tangcae tarik let han ka paqak ai, nangcae atho ohhaih ah ni oh.
In conclusion, my friends, may all joy be yours in your union with the Lord. To repeat what I have already written does not weary me, and is the safe course for you.
2 Uinawk to ayae oh, kahoih ai hmuen sah kaminawk to ayae oh, tangzat hin aat baktiah angsah kaminawk to ayae oh.
Beware of those dogs! Beware of those mischievous workers! Beware of the men who mutilate themselves!
3 Aicae loe loktang ah tangzat hin aat kami ah ni a oh o, palungthin hoiah Sithaw a bok o moe, taksa oephaih tawn ai, Kri Jesu ah anghoe kami ah ni a oh o.
For it is we who are the circumcised – we whose worship is prompted by the Spirit of God, who exult in Christ Jesus, and who do not rely on external privileges;
4 Toe kai doeh taksa ah amoek han koi ka tawnh toeng, kalah kami maeto mah taksa amoek han tawn nahaeloe, kai taoe cae loe nihcae pongah amoek han ka tawnh aep:
though I, if anyone, have cause to rely even on them. If anyone thinks he can rely on external privileges, far more can I!
5 kai loe ni tazetto niah tangzat hin ka aah, Israel acaeng, Benzamin ih atii ah ka oh, Hebru kaminawk thungah Hebru tangtang ah ka oh; kaalok baktiah khet nahaeloe, Farasi kami maeto ah ka oh;
I was circumcised when eight days old; I am an Israelite by birth, and of the tribe of Benjamin; I am a Hebrew, and the child of Hebrews. As to the Law, I was a Pharisee;
6 tha pathokhaih bangah khet nahaeloe, Kricaabu pacaekthlaek kami ah ka oh; kaalok pazuihaih rang hoiah toenghaih bangah khet nahaeloe, coek koi tawn ai kami ah ka oh.
as to zeal, I was a persecutor of the church; as to such righteousness as is due to Law, I proved myself blameless.
7 Toe Kri pongah kai han atho kaom hmuennawk to ka pathlong boih boeh, tiah ka poek.
But all the things which I once held to be gains I have now, for the Christ’s sake, come to count as loss.
8 To khue ai, kahoih koek ka Angraeng Kri Jesu to ka panoek pongah, hmuennawk boih ka sung boeh, tiah ka poek: anih pongah hmuennawk boih ka sung boeh, Kri ka tawnh thai hanah, to hmuennawk loe aek baktiah ah ni ka poek,
More than that, I count everything as loss, for the sake of the exceeding value of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord. And for his sake I have lost everything, and count it as rubbish, if I may but gain Christ and be found in union with him;
9 Anih ka hnuk thai hanah, kaalok hoiah kaom, kaimah ih toenghaih to oep ai ah, Kri tanghaih rang hoiah kaom toenghaih, Sithaw toenghaih to ni ka oep:
any righteousness that I have being, not the righteousness that results from Law, but the righteousness which comes through faith in Christ – the righteousness which is derived from God and is founded on faith.
10 thacak anih angthawk lethaih hoi anih patangkhanghaih ah athum moe, anih ka panoek thai hanah, anih duekhaih ah ka duek toeng;
Then indeed I will know Christ, and the power of his resurrection, and all that it means to share his sufferings,
11 to tiah ni, kai doeh duekhaih thung hoi angthawk let thai toeng tih.
in the hope that, if I become like him in death, I may possibly attain to the resurrection from the dead.
12 Ka hak boeh moe, angaihaih om ai ah, ka koep boeh, tiah ka thui ai: toe to hmuen to naeh thai hanah a hnukah ka patom, to tih han ih ni Kri Jesu mah kai ang patawnh.
Not that I have already laid hold of it, or that I am already made perfect. But I press on, in the hope of actually laying hold of that for which indeed I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus.
13 Nawkamyanawk, hae hmuen hae ka panoek boih boeh, tiah ka poek ai: toe ka sak ih hmuen maeto oh, kalaem tangcae hmuennawk to ka caehtaak moe, hmabang kaom hmuennawk to ka patom,
For I, friends, do not regard myself as having yet laid hold of it. But this one thing I do – forgetting what lies behind, and straining every nerve for that which lies in front,
14 Kri Jesu ah kasang kawkhaih Sithaw ih tangqum hnuk hanah, hmabangah ka cawnh.
I press on to the goal, to gain the prize of that heavenward call which God gave me through Christ Jesus.
15 To pongah Muithla bangah qoeng khuek kaminawk loe, hae baktih palungthin hae tawn o si: toe poekhaih dan kalah na tawnh o nahaeloe, Sithaw mah hae hmuen kawng hae nangcae han kamtuengah panoeksak tih, tiah ka poek.
Let all of us, then, whose faith is mature, think this way. Then, if on any matter you think otherwise, God will make that also plain to you.
16 Toe aicae loe a hnuk o tangcae hmuen baktih toengah poekhaih maeto hoiah caeh o poe si.
Only we are bound to order our lives by what we have already attained.
17 Nawkamyanawk, ka sak ih hmuen sah pazui kami ah om oh, nangcae han khet koi kaom ah ka sak o ih hmuen sah pazui kaminawk khae hoiah amtuk oh.
My friends, unite in following my example, and fix your eyes on those who are living by the pattern which we have set you.
18 (Kang thuih o toepsoep, vaihi doeh mikkhraetui krakhaih hoiah kang thuih o; nihcae loe Kri thinglam ih misa ah oh o:
For there are many – of whom I have often told you, and now tell you even with tears – who are living in enmity to the cross of the Christ.
19 nihcae loe amrohaih hoiah ni boeng o, angmacae ih zok to sithaw ah a bok o; azat kaom a sak o ih hmuen to lensawk hmuen baktiah amoek o haih, nihcae loe long hmuen nuiah poekhaih a suek o.)
The end of such people is ruin; for their appetites are their God, and they glory in their shame; their minds are given up to earthly things.
20 Toe aicae loe van ah ohhaih kawng to ni a thuih o; to pongah van hoiah angzo han koi pahlongkung, Angraeng Jesu Kri to a zing o:
But we are citizens of heaven, and from heaven we expect a savior to come, the Lord Jesus Christ.
21 hmuennawk boih angmah tlim ah suekthaihaih tha a tawnh baktih toengah, to tiah a suekthaihaih tha patohhaih rang hoiah, anih mah panuet kaom aicae ih takpum doeh a lensawkhaih takpum ah angcoengsak tih.
By the exercise of his power to bring everything into subjection to himself, he will make our humble bodies like his glorious body.
