¹I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

¹Huchiin, a masapen in, thilnget thumnate, thumna himhimte, thumsaknate, kipahthu genna te, mi tengteng ading a bawl sak dingin ka hon hasuan hi;

²For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

²Kumpipate leh thuneite tengteng ading inleng; Pathian limsak leh zahtakhuai taka kituaka khamuang a I om theihna dingin.

³For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

³Huaituh I Hondampa Pathian theih in a hoih in, a kipahhuai hi;

⁴Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

⁴Aman tuh mi tengteng hotdama om ding leh thutak thei dingin a deih hi.

⁵For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

⁵Pathian khat kia a om, Pathian leh mihing kikal ah Palai khat kia a om nawn,

⁶Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

⁶Amah tuh mihing ahi, Khris Jesu, mi tengteng tatna dia kipiapen; huai heihpihna tuh a huntaka piak ahi.

⁷Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.

⁷Hiai hihding a tangkoupihpa ding leh sawltaka seh ka hi (thu taktak ka gen, ka juai kei); ginna leh thutak a Jentelte hilhpa a seh ka hi.

⁸I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

⁸Huchiin, pasalten mun chiha khut siangthou jakin, thangpailou leh kisellouin thum le uh ka deih ahi.

⁹In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;

⁹Tua bangmah in numeite zumthei leh omdan siamin puansilh kilawm lelin kivan le uh; sam phek hiam, dangkaeng hiam, tuikepsuang hiam, puan mantam taktak khawng a kivan louin:

¹⁰But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.

¹⁰Ahihhangin numei Pathian limsak kichite a kihun lelin thil hih hoihin kivan le uh, ka deih hi.

¹¹Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

¹¹Numei in thumang hiathiatin om dinden in zil hen.

¹²But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

¹²Ahihhangin, numeiin thu a hilh jaw ka phal kei, pasal tunga thuneih leng ka phal sam kei, dai dindenin om jaw hen.

¹³For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

¹³Adam tuh siam masak ahi a, huai nungin Evi siam ahi ngala.

¹⁴And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

¹⁴Huan, Adam tuh khemin a om keia, numei bel khemin a om a, tatlekna ah a pukta hi.Himahleh, omdan siamna toh ginna leh itna leh siangthounaa a om gige leh, numei tuh nau a pianna jiakin hotdamin a om ding hi.

¹⁵Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.

¹⁵Himahleh, omdan siamna toh ginna leh itna leh siangthounaa a om gige leh, numei tuh nau a pianna jiakin hotdamin a om ding hi.
