2 Kawrin 13

1 Nangmih taengah voeithum ka pawk coeng he. Olka boeih tah laipai panit pathum kaha ka neh a pai puei bitni.

This is the third time that I am coming to you. From the mouth of two or three witnesses will every word be made certain.

2 Ka thui coeng dongah ni lakhla vaengah khaw aka om pabae bangla ka thui. Tahae ah aka tholh tangtae rhoek neh a tloe boeih te khaw koep ka pawk atah kan hlun mahpawh.

I said before, and still say it before I come, as being present for the second time, though I am still away from you, to those who have done wrong before, and to all the others, that if I come again I will not have pity;

3 Ka khuiah Khrih a cal te loepdaknah neh na toem uh. Anih tah nangmih ah tattloel pawt tih nangmih khuiah tlung ta.

Seeing that you are looking for a sign of Christ giving out his word in me; who is not feeble in relation to you, but is strong in you:

4 Vawtthoeknah neh tai cakhaw Pathen kaha thaomnah neh hing coeng. Mamih khaw amah dongah n'tattloel uh dae na taengkah Pathen thanomnah neh amah taengah n'hing uh bitni.

For he was feeble in that he was put to death on the cross, but he is living by the power of God. And we are feeble in him, but we will be living with him through the power of God in relation to you.

5 Namamih te noem uh lah, tangnah dongah na om nim. Namamih te nuemnai uh lah. Na khuikah Jesuh Khrih te na hmat uh pawt ve. Te pawt koinih a lolhmaih lam ni na omuh.

Make a test of yourselves, if you are in the faith; make certain of yourselves. Or are you not conscious in yourselves that Jesus Christ is in you, if you are truly Christ's?

6 Tedae na ming uh bitni tila ka ngaiuep. Kaimih tah a lolhmaih la ka om uh moenih.

But it is my hope that you will have no doubt that we are truly Christ's.

7 Nangmih tea thae la n'saii loengloeng pawt ham ni Pathen taengah ka thangthui uh. Kaimih loh ueppang la ka phoe uh mai pawt cakhaw nangmih tah a then mah saii uh mai. Kaimih he a lolhmaih lam khaw ka om uh mai thai.

Now our prayer to God is that you may do no evil; not in order that it may be put to our credit, but so that you may do what is right, whatever we may seem.

8 Oltak kah a voelah pakhat khaw n'saii thai moenih, oltak ham ni n'saii.

Because we are able to do nothing against what is true, but only for it.

9 Kaimih loh ka tattloel uh vaengah nangmih loh tatthai la na om uh dongah ka omngaih uh. Nangmih kah na cungkuemnah ham ni ka thangthui uh van he.

For we are glad when we are feeble and you are strong: and this is our prayer, even that you may be made complete.

10 Lakhla vaengah ka daek coeng dongah he ka om vaengah khaw ka rhoidoeng aih mahpawh. Boeipa loh saithainah kai m'paek he hlinsainah ham ni koengloengnah ham moenih.

For this cause I am writing these things while I am away, so that there may be need for me, when I am present, to make use of sharp measures, by the authority which the Lord has given me for building up and not for destruction.

11 A tloihsoi ah manuca rhoek omngaih uh lah, moeh uh lah, hloephoelh uh thae lah, thikat la poek uh lah, rhoep uh thae lah. Te dongah lungnah neh rhoepnah Pathen tah nangmih taengah om saeh.

Let this be my last word, brothers; be glad; be complete; be comforted; be of the same mind; be at peace with one another: and the God of love and peace will be with you.

12 Moknah cim neh khat neh khat toidal uh lah.

Give one another a holy kiss.

13 Hlang ciim rhoek boeih loh nangmih te n'toidal uh.

All the saints send their love to you.

14 Boeipa Jesuh Khrih kah lungvatnah, Pathen kah lungnah neh, Cim Mueihla kah rhoinaengnah tah nangmih boeih taengah om saeh.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the harmony of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.
