Kolosa 3

1 Khrih te na thoh puei tangloeng atah soben hno te toem uh. Te ah te Pathen kah bantang ah aka ngol Khrih om.

If then you have a new life with Christ, give your attention to the things of heaven, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.

2 Soben kah hno te poek uh, diklai hmankah hno te poek uh boeh.

Keep your mind on the higher things, not on the things of earth.

3 Na duek uh coeng dae nangmih kah hingnah tah Pathen taengah Khrih neh a thuh coeng.

For your life on earth is done, and you have a secret life with Christ in God.

4 Nangmih kah hingnah Khrih te a phoe vaengah nangmih khaw amah neh thangpomnah dongah na phoe uh van bitni.

At the coming of Christ who is our life, you will be seen with him in glory.

5 Te dongah diklai hmankah Cukhalnah, rhongingnah, huebawtnah, a thae la hoehhamnah neh mueibawknah la aka om halhkanah dongah pumrho te duek sakuh.

Then put to death your bodies which are of the earth; wrong use of the flesh, unclean things, passion, evil desires and envy, which is the worship of strange gods;

6 Te rhoek kongah Pathen kah kosi loh althanah a ca rhoek te a thoeng thil.

Because of which the wrath of God comes on those who go against his orders;

7 Te rhoek neh na hing vaengah nangmih khaw te rhoek taengah na pongpa noek uh coeng.

Among whom you were living in the past, when you did such things.

8 Tedae nangmih loh, kosi, thinsanah, phayoenah, soehsalnah, nangmih ka lamkah ol rhong ol ing boeih te hnawt uh van laeh.

But now it is right for you to put away all these things; wrath, passion, bad feeling, curses, unclean talk;

9 Khat neh khat taengah laithae uh boeh. Hlang rhuem te a khoboe neh pit uh.

Do not make false statements to one another; because you have put away the old man with all his doings,

10 Amah aka suen kah mueimae bangla mingnah dongah a dawn aka sai tangtae hlang thai te bai uh.

And have put on the new man, which has become new in knowledge after the image of his maker;

11 Te ah te Greek neh Judah, yahvinrhetnah neh pumdul, kholong, hlang tlung, sal, aka loeih ti om pawh. Tedae Khrih tah cungkuem dongah cungkuem la om.

Where there is no Greek or Jew, no one with circumcision or without circumcision, no division between nations, no servant or free man: but Christ is all and in all.

12 Te dongah Pathen kah a coelh rhoek, aka cim neh a lungnah rhoek vanbangla, sitlohnah kotak, rhennah, tlayaenah, muelhtuetnah, thinsennah te bai uh.

As saints of God, then, holy and dearly loved, let your behaviour be marked by pity and mercy, kind feeling, a low opinion of yourselves, gentle ways, and a power of undergoing all things;

13 Khat neh khat naem uh thae lamtah amah mah ah rhen uh thae. Pakhat loh pakhat soah kamkaihnah a khueh atah, Boeipa loh nangmih khodawk a ngai vanbangla nangmih van long khaw khodawkngai uh.

Being gentle to one another and having forgiveness for one another, if anyone has done wrong to his brother, even as the Lord had forgiveness for you:

14 A cungkuem neh he rhoek soah lungnah thap thil. Te tah a soepnah dongkah pinyennah la om coeng.

And more than all, have love; the only way in which you may be completely joined together.

15 Te phoeiah Khrih kah ngaimongnah tah nangmih kah thinko ah cuhlui sak. Te ham ni pum pakhat la n'khue van dongah uemonah khueh uh.

And let the peace of Christ be ruling in your hearts, as it was the purpose of God for you to be one body; and give praise to God at all times.

16 Khrih kah olka tah nangmih khuiah kodam la om sak. Cueihnah cungkuem dongah khat neh khat thuituen uh lamtah rhalrhing sakuh. Pathen ham nangmih thinko ah lungvatnah neh tingtoeng, bawknah laa, mueihla laa te sa uh.

Let the word of Christ be in you in all wealth of wisdom; teaching and helping one another with songs of praise and holy words, making melody to God with grace in your hearts.

17 Mebang khaw na saii uh boeih te tah olka dongah khaw, bitat dongah khaw Boeipa Jesuh ming neh boeih sai uh lamtah amah lamloh pa Pathen te uem uh.

And whatever you do, in word or in act, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving praise to God the Father through him.

18 Huta rhoek Boeipa ah a rhoeprhoi vanbangla na va rhoek taengah boengai uh.

Wives, be under the authority of your husbands, as is right in the Lord.

19 tongpa rhoek na yuu rhoek te lungnah uh lamtah amih te a mueipuel sak boeh.

Husbands, have love for your wives, and be not bitter against them.

20 Ca rhoek a cungkuem dongah na manu na napa te a olngai pauh. He tah Boeipa dongah kolo koi la om.

Children, do the orders of your fathers and mothers in all things, for this is pleasing to the Lord.

21 Pa rhoek, na ca rhoek te cahawh uh boeh. Te daengah ni a ko a bawt uh pawt eh.

Fathers, do not be hard on your children, so that their spirit may not be broken.

22 Sal rhoek, a cungkuem ah pumsa kah vanbangla na boei rhoek te olngai pauh. Kolopatai rhoek bangla mikhmuh dawk ah pawt tih thinko moeihoeihnah neh Boeipa te rhih uh.

Servants, in all things do the orders of your natural masters; not only when their eyes are on you, as pleasers of men, but with all your heart, fearing the Lord:

23 Na saii uh coeng te tah na hinglu neh saii uh. Te te Boeipa ham ni hlang ham moenih.

Whatever you do, do it readily, as to the Lord and not to men;

24 Boeipa lamkah rho thapang na dang uh bitni tila ming uh. Te te Khrih boeipa kah sal ni na bi uh.

Being certain that the Lord will give you the reward of the heritage: for you are the servants of the Lord Christ.

25 Aka thae loh a thae te a dang vetih maelhmai sawtnah om mahpawh.

For the wrongdoer will have punishment for the wrong he has done, without respect for any man's position.
