¹Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.

¹Huchiin, unaute aw, Pathian zahngaihna jiakin, kithoihna hing leh siangthou leh Pathian lungtuak dingin na pumpi uh kilan dingin ka hon ngen ahi; huai tuh na biakna dan ding him uh ahi.

²Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

²Hiai khovel dan bangin om kei unla; Pathian deihlam a hoih leh, lungtuah huai tak leh, hoihkim, na theihtel theihna ding un, na lungsim uh a thaka omin honglamdang zota un.

³For I say, through the grace that was given me, to every man who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.

³Na lak uah kuamah na kilet sak ding hun val ua kilian sak louin, Pathianin mi chih kianga ginna hun a piak bang jela diktaka ngaihtuah zo dingin Pathianin honpiak hehpihna jiakin kon chi chiat ahi.

⁴For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members don’t have the same function,

⁴Pumpi khatah hiang tampi i nei ua, hiang tengteng nasep bel a kibang kei hi,

⁵so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.

⁵Huchi mahbangin, eite tampi himah lehang, Kris ah pumpi khat ihi ua: a tuamtuamin I kihiang tuah chiat uhi.

⁶Having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us, if prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of our faith;

⁶Hehpihna a honpiak dan bang jelin thilthawnpiak tuamtuam i nei chiat uh: thugen ding a hih leh i ginna toh kihunin i gen ding u;

⁷or service, let us give ourselves to service; or he who teaches, to his teaching;

⁷Nasepna ding ahihleh, na i sem chiatchiat ding uh; thuhilhmin leng hilh hiathiat hen;

⁸or he who exhorts, to his exhorting: he who gives, let him do it with liberality; he who rules, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.

⁸Taihilhmin leng taihilh geihgeih heh; thilpemin it louin pia heh; vaihawmmin thanuam takin hawm heh; mi hehpihin kipaktakin hehpih heh.

⁹Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.

⁹Itna ahihleh lepchiahna tel louin hi heh. Gilou lam hua unla, hoih lam len chinten un.

¹⁵Kipakte kipahpih unla, kapte kahpih un.

¹⁶Ngaihtuah kibangin om chiat un, Kingaihtuah sang lo kei unla, mi neuneu kithuahpih jaw un. Kipil sak kei un.

¹⁷Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honorable in the sight of all men.

¹⁷Kua gitlouh leng gilouin thuk kei un. Mi tengteng muhin thil kilawm ngaihtuah un.

¹⁸If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.

¹⁸A theih liai leh, noumau lambek, mi tengteng toh kituakin om un.

¹⁹Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.” Deuteronomy 32:35

¹⁹Deihtakte aw, phu kila kei unla, Pathian tuh hehna awn jaw un, Phulak himhim kei lak ding ahi, ken ka thuk ding, Toupan a chi, chih gelh ahi ngala.

²⁰Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head.” Proverbs 25:21-22

²⁰Huaijiakin, na melma a gilkial leh nek ding pia inla; adangtak leh dawn ding pia in; huchibang na hih leh a lu tungah meiam na sekkhawm ahi ding hi.Gitlouh zohin om kenla, hoihnain gilou zou jaw in.

²¹Don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

²¹Gitlouh zohin om kenla, hoihnain gilou zou jaw in.
