¹Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.

¹Huaijiakin, mihing aw, mi selhat kuapeuh himahlechin, pau lam himhim na neikei hi; midang na selna mahah nangmah leh nangmah siamlouh kitang sak na hi; nang selhatin leng huchibang thilte tuh na hih sam ngala.

²But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.

²Huchibang thil hih nakte tungah Pathian vaihawmna tuh diktak in a tung chih i thei ngala.

³And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

³Mihing aw, huchibang thil hih nakte gensia, nang leng huchibang na hih sam ngal naka Pathian vaihawmna pelh na kigingta ahia?

⁴Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

⁴A hihkeileh, Pathian hoihna tuh kisiknaa nang honpi dinga om ahi chih theilouin, a hoihna, a thuaktheihna leh, a dohtheihna hauhnate na ngaineu ahi a?

⁵But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

⁵Na chihmoh leh na lungtang khauh jiakin, hehna leh Pathian vaihawmna diktat hongkilatna ni chiang adingin, na tungah hehna na kikhol khawm tawm ahi.

⁶Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

⁶Pathianin mi chih a thil hih bang jel un a hawmsak dinga;

⁷To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

⁷thil hoih hih teiteia, thupina leh pahtawina leh manthat theihlouhna zong mite kiangah, khantawn hinna a pe ding;

⁸But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

⁸a hihhangin, genhaka, thutak jui lou a, gitlouhna jui zote tungah, hehna leh thangpaihna te, haksatna leh lungkhamna thupitakte a om dia;

⁹Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

⁹mihing thil hihkhial tengteng kha tungah a om ding, Juda mi kha tungah a masa dia, huan, Grik mi kha tungah a om nawn ding.

¹⁰But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

¹⁰Ahihhangin, thil hoih hih peuhmah kiangah thupinate, pahtawina te, khamuanna te piak ahi ding, Juda mi kiangah piak ahi masa dia, huan, Grik mi kiangah ahi nawn ding.

¹¹For there is no respect of persons with God.

¹¹Pathianin mi deihsk tuam a nein gal keia.

¹²For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;

¹²Kuapeuh dan neiloua thil hihkhial tuh, dan louin a mangthang ding hi; huan, kuapeuhmah dan neia thil hihkhial tuh, dana vaihawmin a om ding.

¹³(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

¹³Dan zami phette tuh Pathian mitmuhin mi dik ahi kei ua; dan juite tuh mi dik a hizo ding uh.

¹⁴For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:

¹⁴Dan neilou Jentelten amau pianpiha dan thilte a hih un, huaiten dan neikeimahleh uh, amau leh amau danin a kinei tawm ngal ua.

¹⁵Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)

¹⁵A lungtang uah dan thilhih gelh ahi chih a ensak uh, huai tuh a sia leh pha theihna un a theihpih hi; a lungsimte uh tuh a kisela, a thupukna-un siamlouh a tan hiam siam a tan hiam ahi ding,

¹⁶In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

¹⁶ka Tanchin Hoih gen banga, mihingte thugukte Pathianin, Jesu Krisa, a ngaihtuah ni chiangin.

¹⁷Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,

¹⁷Himahleh, nang Juda kichi na hi a, dan na muanga, Pathian na suanga,

¹⁸And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;

¹⁸a deihlam na theia, thil hoihjaw te hoih na saa, dana hilhin na om a,

¹⁹And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,

¹⁹nangmah mah mittawte pipa, mial laka omte vakna hiin na kigingta a;

²⁰An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.

²⁰dan ah pilna leh thutak omdan na theih jiakin, mi pilloute hilhpilpa, naungekte hilhpain nakigingta hi;

²¹Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

²¹huchibang na hih ngal leh, nang, midangte hilhpa, nangmah na kihilh ka hia? Nang, mi guta lou dia hilhpa, nang nag u nak maw?

²²Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?

²²Nang, angkawm lou dia hilhpa, nang ang na kawm nak maw? Nang, milim hopa, nang milim biakina thilte nag u nak maw?

²³Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?

²³Nang, dan suangpa, nang dana na tatlek jiakin Pathian na hihminse jel ahi maw?

²⁴For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.

²⁴A gelh bang ngei un Pathian min tuh noumau jiakin Jentelte lakah hihsiatin a om ta hi.

²⁵For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.

²⁵Dan juipa na hih leh zeksum a phatuam ngial hi; dana talekpa na hih lebel, na zeksum tuh sum louh bang phet a honghita hi.

²⁶Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

²⁶Huaijiakin, zeksum lou miin dan thu sehte a zuih leh, a zeksum louh tuh sum banga sim ahi kei dia hia?

²⁷And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?

²⁷Huan, amau saa zeksum louhin dan a zuih kim uleh, nang, danthu gelh leh zeksum nei ngala, dana talekpa a honmohpaih kei ding ua hia?

²⁸For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

²⁸Alang lela Juda mi hi jaw Juda mi tak ahi kei hi; a langa sa lela zeksum jaw zeksum tak leng ahi sam kei hi.Ahihhangin, a lang lel hi loua, Juda mi hi, Juda mi tak ahi; huan, zeksum tak tuh, lungsim lama sum ahi, lai thu phetah hi louin, kha ah ahi; huai miin tuh mihing phat a loh keia, Pathian phat a loh jaw ahi.

²⁹But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

²⁹Ahihhangin, a lang lel hi loua, Juda mi hi, Juda mi tak ahi; huan, zeksum tak tuh, lungsim lama sum ahi, lai thu phetah hi louin, kha ah ahi; huai miin tuh mihing phat a loh keia, Pathian phat a loh jaw ahi.
