¹I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed.

¹Huchiin, na lak ua saptuam upate tuh, kei, na upat pih uh, Kris thuaknate theipa thupina honglang ding tangsam dingin ka honhasuan ahi;

²Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily, not for dishonest gain, but willingly;

²Na lak ua Pathian pawlte om tuh kem un; hih ding a hih jiak hi louin, Pathian thu banga ut kawm jawin, punna thanghuai deih jiak leng hi louin, lungsima deih taktak jawin,

³neither as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.

³na tante uh tungah kilal sak tuan louin pawlte zuih dinga kibawl jawin, kem un.

⁴When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.

⁴Huan, Belamchingpapen a honglat chiangin, thupina lallukhu tul theilou na mu ding uhi.

⁵Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility, to subject yourselves to one another; for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” Proverbs 3:34

⁵Huchibang mahin, nou valnou deuhte aw, upate nuaiah lut un. A hi, na nek ua na kisepsak tuah chiat dingin thunuailutnain kithuam un; Pathianin kisatheite a dou a, kingaineute bel hehpina a pe naknak hi.

⁶Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time;

⁶Huaijiakin, a hun taka nou a honpahtawi theihna dingin, Pathian khut hat tak nuaiah kihihniam unla,

⁷casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.

⁷Aman a honlimsak gige jiakin na mangbatna tengteng uh amah tungah nga vek un.

⁸Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

⁸Pilvang unla, limsak un; na melma uh Diabol, humpinelkai humham bangin a nek theih ding zongin a vial vakvak hi;

⁹Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.

⁹na unau uh khovela omte tungah huchibang thuaknate a tung sam chih theiin, ging kip taka omin, amah dou un.

¹⁰But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

¹⁰Huan, hehpihna tengteng Pathian, a khantawn thupina tang dinga Krisa nou honsampa ngeiin, sawtlou kal na thuak nung un a siam hoihkimin, a hihkipin, a honhihhat ding hi.

¹¹To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.

¹¹Amah kiangah vaihawmna khantawnin om hen. Amen.

¹²Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.

¹²Ka unaupa muanhuai tak ka chih Silvana khutin, noumau hasuan leh, huai tuh Pathian hehpihna taktak ahi chih theiin, tom chikin na kiang uah ka gelh ahi; huai ah tuh ding kip un.

¹³She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you; and so does Mark, my son.

¹³Babulon khuaa om noumau banga telnun chibai a honbuk ahi; huchibangmahin ka tapa Markain leng chibai a honbuk ahi.itna tawpnaa tawpin chibai kibuk un, Na lak ua Krisa om peuhmahte kiang ah lemna om hen. Amen.

¹⁴Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to you all who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.

¹⁴itna tawpnaa tawpin chibai kibuk un, Na lak ua Krisa om peuhmahte kiang ah lemna om hen. Amen.
