1 Timothy 2
1 Te dongah rhenbihnah, thangthuinah, rhikhangnah, uemonah te hlang boeih yueng, manghai rhoek neh dudapnah dongah aka om rhoek boeih yueng la boeih saii lamhma ham kam bih.
I exhort therefore first of all to be made entreaties, prayers intercessions, [and] thanksgivings on behalf of all men,
2 Te daengah ni khosaknah he hingcimnah neh hinomnah cungkuem dongah rhalthal neh dingsuek la kho n'sak uh eh.
for kings and all those in authority being, so that a tranquil and quiet life we may lead in all godliness and in [all] dignity.
3 He ni he then tih mamih kah khangkung Pathen hmaiah mikcop la om.
This (for *k) [is] good and acceptable before the Savior of us God,
4 Amah loh hlang boeih khang ham neh oltak mingnah la pha sak ham a ngaih.
who all men desires to be saved and to [the] knowledge of [the] truth to come.
5 Pathen tah pakhat ni. Pathen neh hlang rhoek kah rhikhangkung tah hlang Jesuh Khrih pakhat ni a om.
One for God [there is], one then mediator between God and men, [the] man Christ Jesus
6 Amah loh hlang boeih ham tlansum la paek tih laipainah te amah tue ah a tueng sak.
the [One] having given Himself [as] a ransom for all, the testimony proper times in [their] own,
7 Te ham olhoe neh caeltueih la kai n'khueh dongah oltak ni ka thui. Tangnah neh oltak dongah kai namtom kah saya he ka laithae moenih.
in regard to which was appointed I myself a herald and an apostle — [the] truth I am speaking (in Christ *K) not I do lie — a teacher of [the] Gentiles in faith and truth.
8 Te dongah hmuen takuem ah tongpa rhoek te thintoek neh oelhtaihnah om kolla kut cim te phuel tih thangthui sak ka ngaih.
I desire therefore to pray the men in every place lifting up holy hands apart from anger and (dissension; *NK+O)
9 Te vanbangla huta rhoek khaw amamih he bainak dongah yahyongnah, cuepmueihnah neh mikcop la khoem uh saeh. Samvaeh neh sui neh laitha neh pueinak phutlo nen moenih.
likewise also women in apparel respectable with modesty and self-control adorning themselves, not with braided hair (or with gold *N+kO) or with pearls or with clothing costly,
10 Tedae bibi then neh Pathen hinyahnah ham ol a caeng te huta rhoek ham rhoeh coeng.
but with what is becoming to women professing [the] fear of God, through works good.
11 Huta tah a cungkuem dongah boengainah neh kammueh la cang saeh.
A woman in quietness should learn in all submissiveness;
12 Te dongah huta loh thuituen ham neh tongpa soah ka tanglue sak pawh. Tedae kammueh la om sak ham ni ka ngaih.
To teach however a woman not I do permit nor to use authority over a man but to be in quietness.
13 Adam tah Eve hlanah a hlinsai lamhma ta.
Adam for first was formed, then Eve.
14 Te phoeiah Adam te a hmilhmak moenih. Tedae huta tah boekoeknah la om ham a hoilae pah coeng.
And Adam not was deceived, but the woman (having been deceived *N+kO) into transgression has come;
15 Tedae tangnah dongah lungnah neh cimcaihnah, cuepmueihnah neh a om uh atah cacunnah rhangneh daem ni.
She will be saved however through childbearing if they shall abide in faith and in love and in holiness with self-restraint.
