< 1 Timothy 2 >

1 And so I beg you, first of all, to make supplications, prayers, petitions, and thanksgivings for all men,
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.
2 for kings, and for all who are in high places, so that we may lead a quiet and tranquil life in all piety and chastity.
Te daengah ni khosaknah he hingcimnah neh hinomnah cungkuem dongah rhalthal neh dingsuek la kho n'sak uh eh.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,
He ni he then tih mamih kah khangkung Pathen hmaiah mikcop la om.
4 who wants all men to be saved and to arrive at an acknowledgment of the truth.
Amah loh hlang boeih khang ham neh oltak mingnah la pha sak ham a ngaih.
5 For there is one God, and one mediator of God and of men, the man Christ Jesus,
Pathen tah pakhat ni. Pathen neh hlang rhoek kah rhikhangkung tah hlang Jesuh Khrih pakhat ni a om.
6 who gave himself as a redemption for all, as a testimony in its proper time.
Amah loh hlang boeih ham tlansum la paek tih laipainah te amah tue ah a tueng sak.
7 Of this testimony, I have been appointed a preacher and an Apostle, (I speak the truth, I do not lie) as a teacher of the Gentiles, in faith and in truth.
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.
8 Therefore, I want men to pray in every place, lifting up pure hands, without anger or dissension.
Te dongah hmuen takuem ah tongpa rhoek te thintoek neh oelhtaihnah om kolla kut cim te phuel tih thangthui sak ka ngaih.
9 Similarly also, women should be dressed fittingly, adorning themselves with compunction and restraint, and not with plaited hair, nor gold, nor pearls, nor costly attire,
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.
10 but in a manner proper for women who are professing piety by means of good works.
Tedae bibi then neh Pathen hinyahnah ham ol a caeng te huta rhoek ham rhoeh coeng.
11 Let a woman learn in silence with all subjection.
Huta tah a cungkuem dongah boengainah neh kammueh la cang saeh.
12 For I do not permit a woman to teach, nor to be in authority over a man, but to be in silence.
Te dongah huta loh thuituen ham neh tongpa soah ka tanglue sak pawh. Tedae kammueh la om sak ham ni ka ngaih.
13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
Adam tah Eve hlanah a hlinsai lamhma ta.
14 And Adam was not seduced, but the woman, having been seduced, was in transgression.
Te phoeiah Adam te a hmilhmak moenih. Tedae huta tah boekoeknah la om ham a hoilae pah coeng.
15 Yet she will be saved by bearing children, if she has continued in faith and love, and in sanctification accompanied by self-restraint.
Tedae tangnah dongah lungnah neh cimcaihnah, cuepmueihnah neh a om uh atah cacunnah rhangneh daem ni.
