¹Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not tiresome, but for you it is safe.

¹Huai louin, ka unaute aw, Toupa ah kipak un. A ngeingei gelh kei adingin a chimtakhuai keia, nou adingin a hoih jaw hi.

²Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of the false circumcision.

²Uite lakah kiveng un, na gilou semte lakah kiveng un, sa atgawp mite lak ah kiveng un.

³For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh;

³Pathian khaa bia, Kris Jesu suang, zeksum diktak i hi ngal ua, huan pumpi ah suanding i neikei uhi.

⁴though I myself might have confidence even in the flesh. If any other man thinks that he has confidence in the flesh, I yet more:

⁴Pumpi lam chilehang kei mahmahin suanding ka nei sem moh kei ding; mi himhimin pumpia suanding neia a kitheihin tuh, ken ka nei sem:

⁵circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee;

⁵A ni giatnaa zeksum, Isreal chi, Benjamin nam, Hebru mi kholdiak, dan lam chi lehang, pharisai;

⁶concerning zeal, persecuting the assembly; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.

⁶Phatuamngaihna lam chi lehang, saptuamte sawi; dan bu-a diktatna lam chi lehang, gensiatbei hi inga.

⁷However, what things were gain to me, these have I counted loss for Christ.

⁷A hihi hitaleh, thil kei adia punna peuhmah Kris jiakin mannain ka simta.

⁸Yes most certainly, and I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Christ

⁸Hi taktak hi, ka Toupa theihna manpha jiakin thil tengteng ka tanta hi. Huan, thil tengteng ninneng bang phetin ka sima Kris ka tan theihna dingin,

⁹and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith;

⁹Huan, Amaha ka om theihna dingin; dan thu-a kinga keimah diktatna hilou- a, Kris ginna jiaka om pen, ginnaa kinga Pathiana pan suak diktatna nei jawin;

¹⁰that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death;

¹⁰Huchi-a, Amah leh a thohnawnna thilhihtheihna ka theiha, a thuaknate tanpiha, a sihnaa Amah batna ka neih theihna dingin;

¹¹if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.

¹¹Bangchihiam beka misi lak akipan thohnawnna ka ngah theih khak leh chiin.

¹²Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, if it is so that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.

¹²Hiai tangkhinta ka hi keia, bukimkhinta leng ka hi kei; ahihhangin huai mah keia hihsak tumin ka delh teitei ahi, Kris Jesun keipen amaha honhihsaktak jiakin.

¹³Brothers, I don’t regard myself as yet having taken hold, but one thing I do. Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before,

¹³Unaute aw, tangkhintain ka kingai keia: ahihhangin thil khat bel ka hih- nunglama omte manghilhin malama om pen ka delh hi;

¹⁴I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

¹⁴Kris Jesua Pathian sapna sang kipahman mu dingin phak chiamna tuh ka delh hi.

¹⁵Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you.

¹⁵Huaijiakin i lak ua a piching deuhdeuh bekin huchibang lungsim i nei ding uh: huchia thil peuhpeuha lungsim dang na neih un tuh, huai tuh Pathian in nou a hontheisak ngei ding hi.

¹⁶Nevertheless, to the extent that we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule. Let us be of the same mind.

¹⁶I hongtunna, i ngah chiangchiang uah muanhuaiin kip peuhmah ni uh.

¹⁷Brothers, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us for an example.

¹⁷Unaute aw, kei honching vek unla, huchibanga omte zuih dinga nonneihte uh tuh chiamteh un.

¹⁸For many walk, of whom I told you often, and now tell you even weeping, as the enemies of the cross of Christ,

¹⁸Tampi a omta ua, a tanchin uh ka honhilhhilhta hi, huan, Kris Kros melmate a hihdan uh, tuin leng kap kawmin ka honhilh hi,

¹⁹whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who think about earthly things.

¹⁹A tawpna uh tuh siatna ahi a, a pathian uh tuh a gilpi uh ahi a, huan a thupina uh leng a daina uh ahi, leilam thil ngaihtuahte jaw.

²⁰For our citizenship is in heaven, from where we also wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ;

²⁰I khovenghihna uh van ah ahi jaw a; huaia kipan mahin Toupa Jesu Kris hondampa tuh i nangak uhi;I pumpi thulim lou tuh amah thupina pumpi toh kibang dingin, a honbawl thak sak ding, thil bangkim amah thuthua a omsak theihna thilhihtheihnain.

²¹who will change the body of our humiliation to be conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working by which he is able even to subject all things to himself.

²¹I pumpi thulim lou tuh amah thupina pumpi toh kibang dingin, a honbawl thak sak ding, thil bangkim amah thuthua a omsak theihna thilhihtheihnain.
