Romans 3
1 What, then, is the preeminence of the Jew? Or what, the profit of his circumcision?
Tabang ahile Judah mite in bang tungtuanna nei ziam? a hibale vunteap tan sia bang phatuam ziam?
2 Much, every way: —First, indeed, that they were entrusted with the oracles of God.
Phattuamna tam mama om a: a thupibel sia, Pathian kammal te amate tung ah a ap hang a hihi.
3 For what? If some distrusted, shall their distrust make, the trust of God, void?
Banghangziam cile mi pawlkhat te in a um bua ahile bang a suak tu uh ziam? amate up ngawl na in Pathian upna a phiat thei tu ziam?
4 Far be it! But let, God, prove to be, true, albeit, every man, be false! Even as it is written—That thou mightest be declared righteous in thy words, and overcome when thou art in judgment.
Phiat thei thathong ngawl hi: Pathian sia thuman tahen, ahihang mihing khatsim sia leilot thu son a hihi; nangma sia na kampau na ah thutang suana na nga thei natu in le thukhenna na thuak ciang in na zaw thei natu hi, ci in ki atkhol hi.
5 But, if, our unrighteousness, commendeth, God’s righteousness, what shall we say? Surely, not unrighteous, is God who visiteth with his anger? After the manner of men, I am speaking, —
Ahihang eite thutan ngawl na in Pathian i thutanna kilangsak ahile, bang i ci thei tu ziam? Pathian i phulam na hang in Ama sia thutang ngawl ziam? Hisia sia mihing bang in ka pau a hihi.
6 Far be it! Else how shall God judge the world?
Hi phaphot ngawl hi: tabang hile Pathian in leitung sia bangbang in thukhen tu ziam?
7 But, if, the truth of God, by my falsehood, hath the more abounded unto his glory, why, any longer, am, even I, as a sinner, to be judged?
Banghangziam cile keima i leilot na tungtawn in Pathian i thumanna sia Ama minthanna tu in khang ahile; banghang in keima sia mawnei ka hi na bang in thukhennna thuak khi ziam?
8 And why not, according as we are injuriously charged, [and] according as some affirm that we say, Let us do the bad things, that the good ones may come? whose sentence is, just.
Taciang, a pha a suak tu in a pha ngawl vawt tawng, banghang ci zaw ngawl hi ziam? tabang in ngual in mawsiat in hong son a, pawlkhat te in ci takpi uh hi, hong ci hi, amate i mawsakna a man a hihi.
9 What then? do we screen ourselves? Not at all! For we have before accused both Jews and Greeks of being, all under sin;
Tabang ahile bang i ci tu ziam? amate sang in eite phazaw hi ziam? Hi ngawl hi, bangbang po ahizong ki phazaw tuan ngawl hi: banghangziam cile Judah mite le Gentile mite theampo mawna nuai ah om uh hi, ci tetti i mu zo hi;
10 Even as it is written—there is none righteous, not even one,
Mi pha om ngawl hi, khat zong om ngawl hi:
11 There is none that discerneth, There is none that seeketh out God:
A telthiang kuama om ngawl hi, Pathian a zong kuama om ngawl hi.
12 All, have turned aside, together, have become useless, There is none that doeth kindness, not so much as one:
Amate a vekpi in lampial siat zo uh a, bangma phattuamna om ngawl suak siat zo hi, napha a vawt kuama om ngawl hi, khat zong om ngawl hi.
13 A sepulchre opened, is their throat, with their tongues, have they used deceit, the poison of asps, is under their lips,
Amate longtawl sia than ki hong bang hi; amate leii te sia ngual theam na in zang uh hi; amate muk ah ngul ngu om hi:
14 Whose mouth, of cursing and bitterness, is full,
Amate kam sia hamsiatna le kammal kha taw kidim hi:
15 Swift, are their feet to shed blood;
Amate i peang te sia thisan sua tu in zuanngang mama hi:
16 Destruction and misery, are in their ways,
Amate i lampi ah siatsuana le haksatna te om hi:
17 And, the way of peace, have they not known:
Taciang amate in thinnopna lampi a he ngei bua uh hi:
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
Amate i mit ah Pathian zatakna om ngawl hi, ci in ki at khol hi.
19 Now we know that, whatsoever things the law saith, to them who are within the law, it speaketh, in order that, every mouth, may be stopped and all the world come, under penal sentence, unto God.
Tu in thukham i a son theampo sia thukham nuai ah a omte tung ah son hi, ci i he hi: tabang in kam theampo sia ki hup tu a, leitung mi theampo Pathian mai ah maw nei suak tu hi.
20 Inasmuch as, by works of law, shall no flesh be declared righteous before him, —through law, in fact, is discovery of sin.
Tua ahikom Pathian mai ah thukham zuina hang in kuama in mipha suak zo ngawl tu hi: banghangziam cile thukham sia mawna heakna a hihi.
21 But now, apart from law, a righteousness of God hath been manifested, borne witness to by the law and the prophets, —
Ahihang thukham ki hel ngawl in Pathian i phatna sia tu in hong kilang zo hi, tasia sia thukham le kamsang te in tettipang uh hi;
22 A righteousness of God, through faith in [Jesus] Christ, unto all that have faith; for there is no distinction, —
Jesus Christ upna tungtawn in Pathian i phatna sia a um theampo te tung le a umte theampo tung ah om hi: banghangziam cile bangma ki lamdanna om ngawl hi:
23 For, all, have sinned and fall short of the glory of God;
Banghangziam cile mi theampo mawsiat zo a, Pathian i vangletna sang ban nawn ngawl hi;
24 Being declared righteous freely by his favour through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: —
Christ Jesus sung ah tatna tungtawn in Pathian hesuakna hang in thutangsuana a thong in i sang hi:
25 Whom God hath set forth as a propitiatory covering, through faith in his blood, for a showing forth of his righteousness, by reason of the passing-by of the previously committed sins,
Pathian in Christ Jesus sia thisan upna tungtawn in a thin-ukna a dapsak tu in a koi hi a, Ama thutang suana tangko natu a hihi, banghangziam cile Pathian i thuakzawkna tungtawn in a bosa hun mawna te pan in suatak natu a hihi;
26 In the forbearance of God, —with a view to a showing forth of his righteousness in the present season, that he might be righteous even when declaring righteous him that hath faith in Jesus.
Jesus a um te le a thutansak te thutang a sua thei natu in Ama i thutang suana sia tu in tangko tu hi, ci in kong son hi.
27 Where, then, the boasting! It is excluded. Through what kind of law? Of works? Nay! but through a law of faith:
Tabang ahile, ki suantak natu koisung om ziam? ki suantakna ki vawk zo hi. Bang thukham in vawk ziam? sepna te a hi ziam? Hi ngawl hi: ahihang upna thukham in vawk hi.
28 For we reckon that a man is to be declared righteous by faith, apart from works of law.
Tua ahikom mihing khat sia thukham in sepna ki hel ngawl, upna tungtawn in thutang suana nga hi, ci in i thu i khup hi.
29 Or, [is God] the God, of Jews only, and not of the nations also? Yea! of the nations also: —
Ama sia Judah te Pathian bek a hi ziam? Gentile te Pathian zong hi ngawl ziam? Hi hi, Gentile te Pathian zong hi veve hi:
30 If, at all events, God is one, who will declare righteous—the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision through their faith.
Vunteap tanna le tan ngawl nate sia upna tungtawn in thutang suana hong ngasak tu Pathian khat bek om hi.
31 Do we then make, law, void through means of our faith? Far be it! On the contrary, law, we do establish!
Tabang ahile upna tungtawn in thukham vawk i hi ziam? i vawk bua hi: thukham a khosak zaw i hihi.
