Romans 13
1 Let every soul be subject to the higher powers. For there is no power but from God: the powers that are, are ordained by God.
Lathueng lae ukkungnaw e kâ teh tami pueng ni ngai awh naseh. Cathut koehoi laipalah kâtawnnae tie awmhoeh. Atu kaukkungnaw heh Cathut ma ni a poe e doeh.
2 Whoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves condemnation.
Kaukkungnaw ka taran e teh Cathut ni kâ poe e ka taran e lah ao. Hottelah ka taran e naw teh yon lawkcengnae ama ni a kâhmo awh han.
3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from the same:
Bangkongtetpawiteh, kaukkungnaw heh hawinae ka sak e taminaw hanelah taki hane awmhoeh. Hno kahawihoeh ka sak naw hanelah doeh taki hanelah ao. Hottelah na sak pawiteh ahnie oupnae na pang han.
4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou doest that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, an avenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
Hatdawkvah ahnimouh teh nang hane hnokahawi kasakkung Cathut e san doeh. Hatei hno kathout na sak pawiteh takinae tawn lawih. Ahnimouh teh tahloi ayawmlah patuem awh hoeh. Ahni teh hno kathout ka sak naw hanlah a lungkhueknae yon lawkcengkung Cathut e san doeh.
5 Therefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.
Hat pawiteh, a lungkhueknae dawk dueng laipalah thoehawi panue e lahoi hai ngâi awh.
6 For for this cause ye pay tribute also: for they are God’s ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
Het kecu dawk nan ou, tamuk naw hai na poe awh. Nangmouh teh Cathut e thaw katawknaw lah na o awh teh hote thaw doeh pou na tawk awh.
7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.
Hatdawkvah tami tangkuem hai poe kamcu e hah poe awh. Tamuk poe kamcu e naw hah tamuk poe awh. Cawng e poe tueng e naw hah cawng pouh awh. Taki tueng e naw hah taket awh. Bari kamcu e naw hah bari awh.
8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
Lungpatawnae hloilah, bang patet e laiba hai tawn awh hanh. Ayâ lung ka pataw e ni kâlawk a kuep sak toe.
9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there is any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, uicuk hanh, tami thet hanh, parawt hanh, radueknae lung tawn hanh tie kâpoelawk koehoi kamtawng teh, alouke kâlawk bangpatet hai, nama hoi kâkuen e hah nama hoi kâvan lah lungpataw tie kâlawk dawk koung a kâkuet.
10 Love worketh no ill to one’s neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
Lungpatawnae ni teh a tengpam huiko naw koe, hawihoehnae sak hoeh. Hatdawkvah, lungpatawnae teh, kâlawk ka kuepsakkung lah ao.
11 And this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
Nangmanaw ni, a tue teh na panue awh. Nangmouh inae koehoi kâhlaw nahane tueng a pha toe. Bangdawk ne tetpawiteh atu maimae rungngangnae teh maimouh yuemnae hnin hlak hoehoe a hnai toe.
12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
Karum meimei aloum teh, kho meimei a dai toe. Hatdawkvah maimanaw teh ka hmawt e nuencangnaw takhoe vaiteh angnae nuencang naw khohnat awh sei.
13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in revellings and drunkenness, not in immorality and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
Caneinawmnae, yamuhrinae, kamsoumhoehe napui tongpa yonnae hoi takngainae, kâpokâdanghoehnae hoi kâutnae dawk pawngpa laipalah khodai ceio e patetlah mitkhet kamcu lah khosak awh sei.
14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the lusts of flesh.
Bawipa Jisuh Khrih hah khohnat awh. Takthai lungradueknae thap sin hanelah kâcai awh hanh.
