¹Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?

¹Na lak uah kuapeuhin midang toh thubuai neita le uchin, mi siangthoute maa tun louin, mi diktatloute maah na tun ngam ding ua hia?

²Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

²Ahihleh, misiangthouten khovel a vaihawm ding uh chih na thei ua hia? Huan, khovel bawn na vaihawm ding u leh, thil neupente leng ngaihtuah dia kilawmlou na hi ua hia?

³Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?

³Tulai damsung thute gen louh, angelte nangawn i vaihawm ding uh chih na theikei ua hia?

⁴If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.

⁴Hichiin, tulai damsung thute ngaihtuah ding na neih un bangdia saptuamte ngaihsanglouhpente ngaihtuah sak nahi ua?

⁵I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?

⁵Na zumna ding un ka gen ahi, A unaute kala thu hihpuk thei mi pil, khat bek na lak uah na mu kei ua a ding maw?

⁶But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.

⁶Unau in a unau vaihawmna a tut jawk nak, ginglou maah a hih behlap toh?

⁷Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?

⁷Hilou, hiai na kizen zoh louhna khat uh ahi pah hi, thubuai na kineih tuah nak uh. Bang dia diklou pia hihna nathuak zo lou? Bang achia kijang sak zo mailou oi?

⁸Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.

⁸Hilou, noumau ngeiin na unaute uh tungah leng na hih dik kei ua, na jang sak nak uhi.

⁹Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

⁹Ahihleh, mi diktatlouten Pathian Gam a luah kei ding uh chih na theikei ua hia? Khemin om kei un, kingaihhatte hiam, milim bete hiam, angkawmte hiam, mi hukte hiam, tohukte hiam,

¹⁰Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

¹⁰Gutate hiam, mihuaihamte hiam, zukhamhatte hiam, salhhatte hiam, lepgute hiamin Pathian Gam a luah kei ding uh.

¹¹And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

¹¹Huan, noute khenkhat huchi bang na hi uhi; himahleh, Toupa Jesu Kris min ah leh i Pathian Kha ah siansak na hita ua, hihsiangthou na hita uh, siamtang na hita uhi.

¹²All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

¹²Thil bangkim hih kei dingin a sianga, himahleh thil bangkim hih a hoih kim khol kei; thil bangkim hih kei ding in a sianga, himahleh bangmah sikha din ka kiphal kei hi.

¹³Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

¹³Nek dingte khawng gila ahi a, gil khawng leng nek dinga ahi; himahleh Pathianin ahihmang tuaktuak ding. Huan, pumpi pen kingaihna ding ahi keia. Toupa ading ahijaw hi; Toupa leng pumpi ading ahi hi:

¹⁴And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.

¹⁴Huan, Pathianin Toupa a kaithoua, eite leng a thilhihtheihnain a honkaithou sam ding hi.

¹⁵Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

¹⁵Na pumpi uh Kris hiangte ahi chih na theikei ua hia? Kris hiangte laksakin kijuak hiang ding peuhin ka bawl dia hia leh?

¹⁶What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

¹⁶Bawl lou hial ding. A hihleh, kijuak zop pen, amah toh pumkhat ahi uh chih na theikei ua hia? A nih un sa pumkhat a hong hita ding uh, a chi ngala.

¹⁷But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

¹⁷Toupa zop bel amah toh kha pumkhat ahi uhi.

¹⁸Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

¹⁸Kingaih taisan un. Mihing thil hihkhelh chiteng pumpi po lamah ahi; mingaihhat inbel amah pumpi tungah thil a hihkhial ahi.

¹⁹What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

¹⁹Ahihleh, na pumpi uh, na sung ua om Pathian kianga kipana na muh uh, Kha Siangthou temple ahi chih na theikei ua hia? Noumaua leng na hi kei ua, mana leisa na hita uh.Huaijiakin, na pumpi un Pathian pahtawi un.

²⁰For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

²⁰Huaijiakin, na pumpi un Pathian pahtawi un.
