Lalpa kan Pathian chu kan pute hnêna a awm ang khân kan hnênah awm sela; min kalsanin, min thlahthlam suh se; May the Lord our God be with us as he was with our ancestors; may he never leave us nor forsake us.

Tu leh fate hi upate lallukhum an ni a, Fanaute ropuina chu an pate hi an ni. Children’s children are a crown to the aged, and parents are the pride of their children.

Ṭhian chuan eng lai pawhin a hmangaih reng a, Mangan ni atân unauva piang a ni.  A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity.

I nu leh i pa chawimawi rawh; tichuan, Lalpa i Pathianin ram a pêkah che hian i dam rei dâwn nia. Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.

Tu pawh mahni chhûngkhat lainate ngaihsak lova, mahni chênpui chhûngte ngei pawh ngaihsak lo chuan rinna an phatsan a ni, ringlo mi aiin an sual zâwk. Anyone who does not provide for their relatives, and especially for their own household, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

Tin, nangni pate u, in fate tithinur suh ula, Lalpa thununnaah leh zilhnaah chuan enkawl zâwk rawh u.  Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.

Naupang chu a kalna âwm kawngah chuan zirtîr ula, A upat hun pawhin a thlah lo vang. Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.

Lalpan heti hian a ti: “Nuin a fa hnute hne lai a theihnghilh thei em ni? A rîla rah a lainat lo thei dâwn em ni? Nuten an fate chu an theihnghilh mai thei e, Kei chuan ka theihnghilh tawp lo vang che u. Can a mother forget the baby...

Ngai teh, unau inngeihdial diala awm khâwm hi A va ṭhain, a va nuam êm! How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!

Miin “Pathian ka hmangaih,” tiin a unau haw si se, mi dawthei a ni; a unau a hmuh renga mah a hmangaih si loh chuan, Pathian a hmuh ngai loh chu a hmangaih thei lo vang. Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar....
