¹Huaijiakin, noute sapa na omna utoh kikhoma om dingin kei Toupaa hentain ka honngen hi,

¹I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called,

²Kingaihniamna leh migitna tengteng, thuaktheihna toh, itnaa kithuakzou zo chiata,

²with all lowliness and humility, with patience, bearing with one another in love;

³Lemnaa Khaa kipumkhatna vom chinten dingin.

³being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

⁴A Honsapna pen lametna mun khata sap na hih mahbang un pumpi khat leh Kha khat kia a om;

⁴There is one body, and one Spirit, even as you also were called in one hope of your calling;

⁵Toupa khat, ginna khat, baptisma khat,

⁵one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

⁶Bangkim Pathian leh Pa khat kia a oma; amah tuh bangkim tungah a oma, bangkim a mu suaka, bangkim sungah a om hi.

⁶one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in us all.

⁷Himahleh, Kris thilpiak tehna bang jelin hehpihna tuh i kiang chiat ah piak a om hi.

⁷But to each one of us was the grace given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

⁸Huaijiakin ahi, Tung lama a kahtouh laiin matte tampi a pia, mihingte kiangah leng thilpiakte a pia, a chihna.

⁸Therefore he says, “When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts to men.” Psalm 68:18

⁹Huchiin, A kah tou, chih tuh, lei mun nuainung pente banga a hongsuk masak phot keileh, bangchi a hita ding leh?

⁹Now this, “He ascended,” what is it but that he also first descended into the lower parts of the earth?

¹⁰Hongsukpen tuh, thil tengteng a hihdim theihna dingin, van tengteng tung peka kah toupa mah ahi.

¹⁰He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.

¹¹Huan, khenkhatte sawltak hi dingin, khenkhatte jawlnei hi dingin, khhenkhatte Tanchin Hoih gen dingin, khenkhatte pastor hi dingin, khenkhatte thuhilh dingin a pia hi:

¹¹He gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, shepherds or, pastors and teachers;

¹²Huai tuh misiangthoute thopna ding, nasepna sepna ding, Kris pumpi lam touhna dingin:

¹²for the perfecting of the saints, to the work of serving, to the building up of the body of Christ;

¹³Huai tuh ginna leh Pathian Ta theihna lama thukituaka, pichinga, Kris tangchinna latdan banga i vek ua i hongom masiaha ding ahi.

¹³until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full grown man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ;

¹⁴Huchi-a mihingte diklouhna zekhemna banga lepchiah pila khem tawmtawma oma thuhilhna huih chitenga langkhat langkhata sep leh mut lengleng, naupang i hih nawn louhna dingun.

¹⁴that we may no longer be children, tossed back and forth and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error;

¹⁵Itnaa thutak gena, bangkima Amah, lupen, Kris ngeia i khanlet jawk ding uh ahi.

¹⁵but speaking truth in love, we may grow up in all things into him, who is the head, Christ;

¹⁶Amah akipan pumpi tengteng, kizopna chiteng sep jiaka, lemtaka suktuah leh kizomkhawma, hiang chihin sep dingdan bangtaka a sep chiangin pumpi a khanga itna ah amah leh amah akilam tou hi.

¹⁶from whom all the body, being fitted and knit together through that which every joint supplies, according to the working in measure of each individual part, makes the body increase to the building up of itself in love.

¹⁷Tuin hiai ka genin Toupa ah kontheisak ahi, Jentelte a lungsim ginatlouhna uh pu-a a om bangun, na om nawn mahmah ding uh ahi kei;

¹⁷This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind,

¹⁸Amau tuh a lungtang uh tak jiaka theihtheihlouhna jiakin Pathian hinna theihtheihna a pan posiahin a om uhi;

¹⁸being darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardening of their hearts;

¹⁹A khenggawpta ua, sianglou chiteng hihna lama huaihamin jautatna ah a kipumpiak uhi.

¹⁹who having become callous gave themselves up to lust, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

²⁰Nou jaw huchibangin kris thu na zil kei uhi!

²⁰But you did not learn Christ that way;

²¹A thu jaa amaha thuhilhna om khin na hih peuhmah uleh, jesua thutak a om bangin.

²¹if indeed you heard him, and were taught in him, even as truth is in Jesus:

²²Na pianken lui uh, na nidanglai hindan uh segawpsa suahkhia unla,

²²that you put away, as concerning your former way of life, the old man, that grows corrupt after the lusts of deceit;

²³Na lungsim Kha uah a thakin hongom unla,

²³and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind,

²⁴Pianken thak, diktatna leh sianthounaa Pathian batpiha siampen silh un.

²⁴and put on the new man, who in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of truth.

²⁵Huchiin, juaugen tawpsanin, noumau inveng kiangah thudiktak gen chiat un; kihiang tuah chiat na hi ngal ua.

²⁵Therefore putting away falsehood, speak truth each one with his neighbor. For we are members of one another.

²⁶Heh unla, khelh jaw khial kei un; na hehna uh niin tum pih kei hen.

²⁶“Be angry, and don’t sin.” Psalm 4:4 Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath,

²⁷Diabol leng mun awn sam kei un.

²⁷neither give place to the devil.

²⁸Gutain gu nawnta kei hen; tasam kianga piak ding a neih theihna dingin, a khuta thil hoih semin gim jaw hen.

²⁸Let him who stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing that is good, that he may have something to give to him who has need.

²⁹Thu sia peuhmah na kam ua kipanin pawt kei hen; a khawk dan bang jela bawl hoih dingin thu hoih peuhmah pawt jaw hen, a ngaikhete adinga hehpihna a hohnghih theihna dingin.

²⁹Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for building up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear.

³⁰Huan, Pathian Kha Siangthou tuh hihlungkham kei un, tatna nia dingin amahah chiamteh na hi uhi.

³⁰Don’t grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

³¹Khatna bang, thangpaihna bang, hehna bang, hanna bang, gensiatna tengteng tawpsanin omta hen, gitlouhna tengteng toh.Huan, kihehpih chiata lainatna neiin om unla, Pathianin Krisa a honngaihdam bangin, noumau leng kingaidam tuah chiat un.

³¹Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice.

³²Huan, kihehpih chiata lainatna neiin om unla, Pathianin Krisa a honngaihdam bangin, noumau leng kingaidam tuah chiat un.

³²And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.
