Ephesians 4
1 I therefore, being prisoner in the Lord, praie you that yee walke worthie of the vocation whereunto yee are called,
Kawk ih kami ah na oh o baktih toengah, kawk ih kami hoi kamcuk ah kho na sak o hanah, Angraeng pongah thongkrah kami, Kai mah kang pacae o,
2 With all humblenesse of minde, and meekenesse, with long suffering, supporting one an other through loue,
hmuen boih ah, minawk tlim ah khosakhaih, poeknaemhaih hoi palungsawkhaih to tawn oh loe, maeto hoi maeto amlunghaih hoiah khosah oh;
3 Endeuouring to keepe the vnitie of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Muithla ah poekhaih maeto amhong thai hanah tha pathok oh.
4 There is one body, and one Spirit, euen as yee are called in one hope of your vocation.
Oephaih maeto tawnh hanah nangcae to kawk baktih toengah, takpum maeto hoi Muithla maeto ni oh;
5 There is one Lord, one Faith, one Baptisme,
Angraeng maeto, tanghaih maeto, tuinuemhaih maeto,
6 One God and Father of all, which is aboue all, and through all, and in you all.
kaminawk boih ih Ampa, Sithaw maeto khue ni oh, anih loe aicae boih ranui ah oh, kami boih khaeah oh moe, nangcae boih thungah oh.
7 But vnto euery one of vs is giuen grace, according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
Toe Kri ih tangqum paekhaih baktih toengah, tahmenhaih loe aicae boih khaeah paek boeh.
8 Wherfore he saith, Whe he asceded vp on hie, he led captiuity captiue, and gaue gifts vnto men.
To pongah ni Anih ranui bangah caeh tahang naah, misong ah kaom kaminawk to a zaeh moe, kaminawk khaeah tangqumnawk to paek, tiah a thuih.
9 (Nowe, in that hee ascended, what is it but that he had also descended first into the lowest partes of the earth?
(Anih caeh tahang, tiah thuih naah, anih loe long thung ih kahnaem koek ahmuen ah anghum tathuk hmaloe, tiah doeh thuih koehhaih ih na ai maw?
10 Hee that descended, is euen the same that ascended, farre aboue all heauens, that hee might fill all things)
Anghum tathuk kami loe, hmuen boih koepsak hanah, van boih ranui koekah daw tahang kami to thuih koehhaih ih ni.)
11 Hee therefore gaue some to be Apostles, and some Prophets, and some Euangelists, and some Pastours, and Teachers,
Anih mah thoemto kaminawk to patoeh ih kami, thoemto kaminawk to tahmaa, thoemto kaminawk to tamthanglok taphong kami, thoemto kaminawk to kricaa zaehoikung hoi patukkung ah paek:
12 For the repairing of the Saintes, for the woorke of the ministerie, and for the edification of the bodie of Christ,
kaciim kaminawk toksak akoep moe, Kri takpum a qoeng o sak thai hanah,
13 Till we all meete together (in the vnitie of faith and that acknowledging of the Sonne of God) vnto a perfite man, and vnto the measure of the age of the fulnesse of Christ,
aicae boih tanghaih hoi Sithaw Capa panoekhaih bangah maeto ah amhong moe, Kri akoephaih tawn kami maeto ah a pha o ai karoek to om tih;
14 That we henceforth be no more children, wauering and caried about with euery winde of doctrine, by the deceit of men, and with craftines, whereby they lay in wait to deceiue.
aicae loe aling thaih kaminawk mah, aling thai hanah patuk ih loknawk pongah, takhi mah hmuh naah ahnuk ahmaa kangthui nawktanawk baktiah a oh o han om ai,
15 But let vs folowe the truth in loue, and in all things, grow vp into him, which is the head, that is, Christ.
toe tih boih ah lu ah kaom, Kri hoi kangvan ah a qoeng o thai hanah, amlunghaih hoiah loktang lok thui kami ah a oh o han oh boeh:
16 By whome al the body being coupled and knit together by euery ioynt, for ye furniture therof (according to the effectual power, which is in the measure of euery part) receiueth increase of the body, vnto the edifying of itselfe in loue.
Anih khae hoiah ni takpum boih nawnto amcong moe, kamtomh ahuhnawk boih doeh thacaksak, takpum ah kaom tanghangnawk boih mah angmacae ih tok a sak o boih baktih toengah, takpum to amlunghaih bangah a qoeng o sak tahang.
17 This I say therefore and testifie in the Lord, that yee hencefoorth walke not as other Gentiles walke, in vanitie of their minde,
To pongah Angraeng rang hoiah hae tiah lok ka thuih, vaihi hoi kamtong tiah doeh angcoeng ai, Gentelnawk caehhaih baktiah caeh o hma lai ah,
18 Hauing their vnderstanding darkened, and being strangers from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardnesse of their heart:
nihcae panoekhaih loe khoving baktiah tahmuep moe, panoekhaih tawn o ai, palung mik a maeng o pongah, Sithaw hinghaih hoiah amkhraeng o ving boeh:
19 Which being past feeling, haue giuen themselues vnto wantonnesse, to woorke all vncleannesse, euen with griedinesse.
nihcae loe azathaih tawn o ai, taksa koehhaih bangah thacak o parai moe, long taksa koeh hmoekhaih palung tawnh o pongah, kaciim ai hmuennawk boih to a sak o.
20 But yee haue not so learned Christ,
To baktih hmuen to Kri khae hoiah nam tuk o ai;
21 If so be yee haue heard him, and haue bene taught by him, as the trueth is in Iesus,
Anih kawng to na thaih o boeh, loktang loe Jesu ah ni oh, tiah anih mah ang patuk o boeh:
22 That is, that yee cast off, concerning the conuersation in time past, that olde man, which is corrupt through the deceiueable lustes,
canghnii ih aling koehhaih palungthin hoiah kamro kangquem hinghaih to angkhring oh loe,
23 And be renued in the spirit of your minde,
Muithla ah poekhaih palungthin to angtha o sak ah;
24 And put on ye new man, which after God is created vnto righteousnes, and true holines.
toenghaih hoi loktang ciimcaihaih bangah, Sithaw ah sak ih kami kangtha to angkhuk oh.
25 Wherefore cast off lying, and speake euery man truth vnto his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
To pongah lok amlaihaih to takhoe oh, aicae loe takpum maeto hoi kaom tanghang ah a oh o pongah, kami boih mah a imtaeng kami khaeah loktang lok to thuih han oh.
26 Bee angrie, but sinne not: let not the sunne goe downe vpon your wrath,
Palung na phui o, toe zaehaih sah o hmah: palung na phuihaih loe niduem hmah nasoe.
27 Neither giue place to the deuill.
Setan hanah ahmuen pahoe pae o hmah.
28 Let him that stole, steale no more: but let him rather labour, and worke with his handes the thing which is good, that hee may haue to giue vnto him that needeth.
Paqu kami loe paqu hma lai nasoe: toksah nasoe loe, amtang kaminawk abom hanah, kahoih hmuen to a ban hoiah sah nasoe.
29 Let no corrupt comunication proceed out of your mouths: but that which is good, to ye vse of edifying, that it may minister grace vnto the hearers.
Na pakha thung hoiah loksae tacawt hmah nasoe, tahngai kaminawk atho oh thai hanah, atho kaom lok to patoh oh.
30 And grieue not the holy Spirit of God, by whom ye are sealed vnto ye day of redemption.
Sithaw ih Kacai Muithla to palungsae o sak hmah, Anih hoiah ni akranghaih ni karoek to hanah catui ang daeng o.
31 Let all bitternesse, and anger, and wrath, crying, and euill speaking be put away from you, with all maliciousnesse.
Hnukmahaih, poek amthuenghaih, palungphuihaih, hraw-anghaih, loksethaih hoi uthaihnawk boih to nangmacae khae hoiah takhoe o ving ah:
32 Be ye courteous one to another, and tender hearted, freely forgiuing one another, euen as God for Christes sake, freely forgaue you.
maeto hoi maeto nuiah tahmenhaih hoi amlunghaih to tawn oh, Kri ah Sithaw mah ang tahmen o baktih toengah, nangcae doeh maeto hoi maeto tahmenhaih tawn oh.
