1 Thessalonians 3

1 Wherefore, no longer concealing our anxiety, we were well-pleased to be left in Athens, alone,

Tua ahikom ka thuak zawk nawn ngawl uh ciang in, keima bek Athens ah tang leng pha tu hi, ci in ka ngaisun uh hi;

2 And sent Timothy—our brother, and God’s minister in the glad-message of the Christ—that he might confirm and console you over your faith,

Taciang i suapui pa, Pathian naseam le Christ i lungdamna thupha sung ah ka naseppui uh Timothy sia note kipsak tu le note i upna taw kisai in note heneam tu in kong paisak uh hi:

3 That, no one, might be shrinking back in these tribulations. For ye, yourselves, know, that, hereunto, are we appointed;

Tabang in hi haksatna hu in kuama hong lok bua tu hi: banghangziam cile kote sia hi haksatna te thuak tu in a ciangtan sate ka hi uh hi, ci sia note mama in na he uh hi.

4 For, even when we were with you, we told you beforehand—we are destined to suffer tribulation! even as it also came to pass, and ye know.

Banghangziam cile note kung ah ka om uh lai in, haksatna ka thuak tu uh hi, ci sia mantak in hong son zo khu hi; kong son uh bangma in hong theng takpi hi, ci na he uh hi.

5 For this cause, I also, no longer concealing my anxiety, sent, that I might get to know your faith, lest by any means he that tempteth, should have tempted you, and, in vain, should have been our toil.

Hi thu hang in, ka thuak zawk ngawl uh ciang in, na up thei natu uh in Timothy kong paisak uh hi, tabang hi bale, ze-et pa in hong ze-et tu a, ka nasepna uh te a luithathong suak tu hi.

6 But, when, just now, Timothy came unto us, from you, and brought us good tidings of your faith and love, —and that ye have good remembrance of us, continually, longing to see, us, —even as, we also, to see you,

Ahihang tu in Timothy sia note kung pan kote kung ah hong theng zo hi, taciang na upna uh le itna lungdamna thupha hong puak hi, taciang note in phatak in tatsat ngawl nong phawk uh a, kote in note kong mu nop uh bangma in, nong mu nuam takpi uh hi:

7 For this cause, were we consoled, brethren, over you, in all our necessity and tribulation, through your faith;

Tua ahikom, suapui te awng, na upna uh tungtawn in ka haksatna uh le ka thinngimna uh theampo sung ah nong heneam uh hi:

8 Because, now, we live, —if only, ye, stand fast in the Lord.

Banghangziam cile, note Topa sung ah kiptak in na ding uh ahile, tu in kote ka nungta uh hi.

9 For what thanksgiving can we render back, unto God, concerning you, on occasion of all the joy wherewith we rejoice, for your sakes, before our God?—

I Pathian mai ah note hang in, ka lungdamna uh theampo atu in, Pathian tung ah bang pokna te ka pia kik tu uh ziam?

10 Night and day, making very abundant entreaties, that we may see your face, and fit in the things which are lacking in your faith?

Note upna a ki samlai te a kicin thei natu ahizong, na maitang ka mu thei natu uh ahizong, sun le zan in nasiatak in thu ka ngen tawntung uh hi.

11 Now may, our God and Father himself and our Lord Jesus, make straight our way unto you:

Tu in i Pa Pathian ama vateak le i Topa Jesus Christ in note sang ka lampi uh ah hong makai tahen.

12 And, you, may the Lord cause to abound and excel in your love one toward another, and toward all, —even as, we, do toward you:

Taciang kote in note kong it uh bang in, note khat le khat ahizong, mi theampo tung ahizong, Topa in itna sung ah khang in hong pungsak tahen:

13 To the end he may confirms your hearts, faultless in holiness, before our God and Father, in the Presence of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

I Topa Jesus Christ sia a mithiangtho theampo taw hongpai ciang in, na thinsung uh te sia i Pa Pathian mai ah pauban na om ngawl, thianthona taw a tawpdong in hong kipsak tahen.
