1But the Spirit says expressly that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons,
1Himahleh, tunungchiang in mi khenkkhatten; pimangna kha te leh dawite thu hilhna limsakin, ginna tuh a hon tawpsan ding uh chih Kha in kichiantakin a gena; huai tuh
2through the hypocrisy of men who speak lies, branded in their own conscience as with a hot iron;
2mi zuaitheite lepchiahna jiakin ahi; huai mi juautheite tuh amau sia leh pha theihna ngeia sik-ama bik bang ahi uhi,
3forbidding marriage and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.
3kiten a kham ua, nekding ante, thutak theia gingta ten kipah thu gen a san ding ua Pathian in a siamte mah nek louh ding a chi nak uhi.
4For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, if it is received with thanksgiving.
4Pathian thilsiam chiteng tuh a hoih ngala, kipahthu gena san ahih khit phot leh bangmah deihlouh ding ahi kei;
5For it is sanctified through the word of God and prayer.
5Pathian thu leh thumna a hihsiangthou ahi khinta ngala.
6If you instruct the brothers of these things, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, nourished in the words of the faith, and of the good doctrine which you have followed.
6Huaite unaute na theihsak leh, Kris Jesu nasempa hoihtak, ginnaleh thuhilhna hoih tutana na zuih thu a vaklian nahi ding hi.
7But refuse profane and old wives’ fables. Exercise yourself toward godliness.
7Ahihhangin, Pathian zahlouhna leh tangthu bulbal neilou bang deih ken. Huan, Pathian limsak dingin kithuzoh in;
8For bodily exercise has some value, but godliness has value in all things, having the promise of the life which is now, and of that which is to come.
8Pumpi kithuzohna a hihleh a phatuam zeka; Pathian limsakna ichihleh khantawn in, hinna, tua omsa leh hong om nawn ding piak chiamna aneih jiakin thil tengteng ah a phatuam hi.
9This saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance.
9Hiai thu tuh a muanhuai in a laktuak mahmah hi.
10For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we have set our trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe.
10Huchiin Pathian hing imuan ziakin I semgim ua, ipang teitei ahi ngala; amah tuh mi tengteng Hondampa ahi-a, a gingtate Hondampa ahi tuanse hi.
11Command and teach these things.
11Hiai thute pia inla, thuhilh in.
12Let no man despise your youth; but be an example to those who believe, in word, in your way of life, in love, in spirit, in faith, and in purity.
12Na naupanna kuamahin sit kei hen; thugen lam ah, tatdan lamah, itna lamah, siangthouna lam ah gingtute zuih ding hizaw in.
13Until I come, pay attention to reading, to exhortation, and to teaching.
13Ka hongpai masiah simkhawng, thuhilh khawng limsak in.
14Don’t neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the elders.
14Nang mah a om thilpiak, thu genkholhnaa piak, upate khut ngaka Pathian in nang a hon neihsak tuh limsak lou ken.
15Be diligent in these things. Give yourself wholly to them, that your progress may be revealed to all.
15Mi teng teng kiang a na phattuamna a lat theihna dingin huaithilte ah thanuam inla, huaite ah kizang zou in.Nangmah leh na thuhilh ah pilvang inla; huai thilte hihin om gige in; huchibang hih in nang mah leh na thuzate na hondam ding hi.
16Pay attention to yourself, and to your teaching. Continue in these things, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.
16Nangmah leh na thuhilh ah pilvang inla; huai thilte hihin om gige in; huchibang hih in nang mah leh na thuzate na hondam ding hi.
