1 Corinthians 4
1 Let men this wyse esteme vs eve as the ministers of Christ and disposers of ye secretes of God.
Cedawngawh ningnih ve Khrih a tyihzawih ingkaw Khawsa ak awihyp ak khoem thlang na thlang ing ning ngai khqi seh.
2 Furthermore it is requyred of the disposers that they be founde faithfull.
Ik-oeih ak khoemkung taw ypawmna a awm ham ngaih hy.
3 With me is it but a very smal thinge that I shuld be iudged of you ether of (mans daye) No I iudge not myn awne selfe.
Nangmih am awhtaw thlanghqing awidengnaak ing awi nami ni deng mai mantaw ikaw na awm am poek nyng; kamah ingkaw kamah zani awi am deng qunyng.
4 I know nought by my selfe: yet am I not therby iustified. It is the Lorde that iudgeth me.
Kak kawpoek ve caih hlai hy, coet a kap kaana am awm nyng. Bawipa ing ni kai ve awi a ni deng hy.
5 Therfore iudge no thinge before the tyme vntill the Lorde come which will lighten thinges that are hyd in darcknes and ope the counsels of the hertes. And then shall every man have prayse of God.
Cedawngawh a tym a pha hlanawh u awm awi koeh deng; Bawipa a law dy qeh uh. Anih ing khawmthan khuiawh thuh na ak awmkhqi ce vangnaak awh dang sak kawmsaw thlanghqing ak kawlung awm dang sak bit kaw. Cawh thlang boeih ing Khawsa am kyihnaak ce hu boeih bit kawm uh.
6 These thinges brethre I have described in myn awne person and Apollos for youre sakes that ye myght learne by vs that no man coute of him selfe beyonde that which is above written: that one swell not agaynst another for eny mans cause.
Tuh koeinaakhqi, “Cawh qee na ak awm ak kep na koeh cet uh,” tinaak awi ce kainih a venawh kawng nami cawngnaak thai aham nangmih nami hawihkhangnaak aham ve a ik-oeihkhqi ve kai ingkaw Apollo ing haw na nih nyng. Cawhtaw thlang pynoet ing pynoet ak khanawh am oek qu kaw.
7 For who preferreth the? What hast thou that thou hast not receaved? Yf thou have receaved it why reioysest thou as though thou haddest not receaved it?
U ing nu nangmih ak lawha bet na a ni sai khqi? Am nami huh ak kaa awh ikaw nami taak? Nami huh awhtaw kawtih amak hu amyihna nami zoeksang qu?
8 Now ye are full: now ye are made rych: ye raygne as kinges with out vs: and I wold to god ye dyd raygne that we might raygne with you.
Nami ngaih ce ta hawh uhyk ti! Nangmih taw boei hawh uhyk ti! Kaimih kaana – sangpahrangkhqi na coeng hawh uhyk ti! Nangmih mi sangpahrang na awm haih aham, sangpahrang na nami awm tang tang ce ni ngaih pyi khqi soeih soeih nyng!
9 Me thinketh that God hath set forth vs which are Apostles for the lowest of all as it were me appoynted to deeth. For we are a gasyngestocke vnto the worlde and to ye angels and to men.
Kai ingtaw, thih aham ami toen thlangkhqi amyihna, Khawsa ing kaimih ceityihkhqi ve a dytnaak benawh ni dang sak namih hy, tinawh poek nyng. Khawk khan ingkaw khawmdek boeih a haiawh, khan ceityihkhqi ingkaw thlangkhqi haiawh dan aham kaimih ve ni sai khqi hy.
10 We are foles for Christes sake and ye are wyse thorow Christ. We are weake and ye are stroge. Ye are honorable and we are despised.
Khrih aham thlakqaw na awm unyng, cehlai nangmih taw Khrih awh cyi uhyk ti! Kaimih taw ka mik tha am awm hy, cehlai nangmih taw namik tha awm hy!
11 Eve vnto this daye we honger and thyrst and are naked and are boffetted wt fistes and have no certayne dwellinge place
Tuh qoe qoe awh ve kaimih taw buh cawi unawh tui ngaih unyng, ak pum a zal na awm unyng, thlang a kut hqitnaak na awm unyng saw im a lo taal unyng.
12 and laboure workinge with oure awne hondes. We are revysed and yet we blesse. We are persecuted and suffer it.
Ka mimah a kut ing bi bi unyng. Thlang ing a ni thekhanaak khqi awh, yh ngah ngah unyng;
13 We are evyll spoken of and we praye. We are made as it were the filthynes of the worlde the ofscowringe of all thinges even vnto this tyme.
amak thym na ami nik kqawn awh, kawdungnaak ing hlat pe unyng. Tuh dy na khawmdek bi bawi amyihna awm unyng saw, khawmdek ing ama ngaih na awm unyng.
14 I write not these thinges to shame you: but as my beloved sonnes I warne you.
Nangmih namik chahnaak aham ve ak ca ve ka qee law amni, ka lungnaak ka cakhqi amyihna ni nami ngaihtaaknaak aham ve ak ca ve qee law nyng.
15 For though ye have ten thousande instructours in Christ: yet have ye not many fathers. In Christ Iesu I have begotten you thorowe ye gospell.
Khrih awh nangmih a nik khoemkungkhqi thlang thonghqa awm ta hlai uhyk ti, pa khawzah am ta uhyk ti, Ikawtih Jesu Khrih awh awithang leek ak caming kai ve nangmih a pa na coeng nyng.
16 Wherfore I desyre you to folowe me.
Cedawngawh kai ve nami ni oet aham ni ngaih khqi nyng.
17 For this cause have I sent vnto you Timotheus which is my deare sonne and faithfull in the Lorde which shall put you in remembrauce of my wayes which I have in Christ eve as I teache every where in all congregacios.
Ve adawngawh ka lungnaak, ka capa ingkaw thlang ypawm, Timote ce nangmih a venawh tyi law nyng, anih ing Jesu Khrih awh ka khawsak ce khaw a hoei awhkaw Thlangboel a venawh ka cawngpyinaak a amyih ce ni sim sak khqi bit kaw.
18 Some swell as though I wolde come no more at you.
Kai, nangmih a ven am kak law hly voel amyihna thlangvang ing oek qu uhy.
19 But I will come to you shortely yf God will: and will knowe not ye wordes of the which swell but ye power:
Cehlai, Bawipa ing tyng hy a ti awhtaw, nangmih a venna law nai kawng nyng, cawh cawhkaw ak oek qukhqi ak awi doeng kaana, a mi bibikhqi ce sim bit kawng.
20 for ye kyngdome of God is not in wordes but in power.
Ikawtih Khawsa qam taw pauthainaak awh am awm nawh thaawmnaak awh ni a awm.
21 What will ye? Shall I come vnto you with a rodde or els in love and in the sprete of mekenes?
Han nu nami ngaih bet? Vyknaak cung ing nu ka law kaw, am awhtaw lungnaak ingkaw kawdungnaak ing nu ka law kaw?
