The Bible

1

Lhig da graih braaragh tannaghtyn.

Let brotherly love continue.

2

Ny jarrood-jee dy choyrt oltagh-bea da joarreeyn: son liorish ta paart er choyrt oltagh-bea da ainleyn gyn-yss daue hene.

Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

3

Cooinee-jee orroosyn t'ayns geulaghyn, myr ayns geulaghyn mâroo; as orroosyn t'ayns seaghyn, myr ta shiu hene myrgeddin

Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.

4

Ta poosey onnoroil ayns ooilley, as y lhiabbee gyn-loght: agh maarderee as adsyn ta brishey-poosey nee Jee briwnys.

Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

5

Lhig da'n ymmyrkey-bea eu ve fegooish saynt; as bee-jee booiagh lesh lheid as t'eu: son t'eh er ghra, Cha vaag-ym, ny cha dreig-ym oo dy bragh.

Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

6

Shen-y-fa fod mayd dy creeoil gra, Ta'n Chiarn my er-coonee, as cha bee aggle orrym jeh ny oddys dooinney y yannoo rhym.

So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.

7

Cooinee-jee orroosyn t'er n'ymmyrkey reill harrystiu, t'er loayrt riu goo Yee: geiyrt er y chredjue oc, smooinaghtyn er jerrey nyn ymmyrkey-bea.

Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.

8

Yeesey Creest yn er cheddin jea, as jiu, as son dy bragh.

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

9

Ny bee-jee er nyn imman noon as noal lesh ymmodee ynsaghyn joarree: son te red mie dy bee'n cree er ny niartaghey, lesh grayse, cha nee ayns y leigh mychione bee, nagh vel er ve vondeishagh dauesyn t'er chur tastey daue.

Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.

10

Ta altar ain nagh vel cairys ocsyn dy ee jeh, ta shirveish yn cabbane-agglish.

We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle.

11

Son ta kirp ny beïyn shen, ta'n uill oc er ny choyrt lesh stiagh 'syn ynnyd-casherick liorish yn ard-saggyrt son peccah, losht cheu-mooie jeh'n champ.

For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp.

12

Shen-y-fa ren Yeesey, myrgeddin, dy voddagh eh yn pobble y chasherickey lesh e uill hene, surranse cheu-mooie jeh'n ghiat.

Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.

13

Lhig dooin er-y-fa shen goll magh huggeysyn cheu-mooie jeh'n champ, gymmyrkey yn scammylt echey.

Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.

14

Son ayns shoh cha vel ain ard-valley shickyr, agh ta shin jerkal rish shen ta ry-heet.

For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.

15

Liorishyn er-y-fa shen lhig dooin dy kinjagh chebbal gys Jee oural dy voylley, ta shen, mess nyn meillyn, coyrt booise da e ennym.

By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.

16

Agh dy yannoo mie, as dy rheynn [er ny boghtyn], ny jarrood-jee: son lesh lheid ny ourallyn ta Jee er ny yannoo booiagh.

But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

17

Cur-jee biallys dauesyn ta reill harrystiu, as bee-jee arrymagh daue: son t'ad er nyn arrey son ny anmeenyn eu, myr adsyn shegin coontey 'choyrt: dy vod ad shen y yannoo lesh boggey, as cha nee lesh trimshey: son ta shen neuvondeishagh diu.

Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.

18

Guee-jee er nyn son: son ta shin treishteil dy vel cooinsheanse vie ain, ayns dy chooilley nhee shirrey dy vaghey dy onneragh.

Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.

19

Agh ta mee guee erriu ny s'jeean dy yannoo shoh, dy voddym shiu y akin ny sleaïe.

But I beseech you the rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.

20

Nish dy jean Jee ny shee hug lesh reesht veih ny merriu nyn Jiarn Yeesey, ard-vochilley ny geyrragh, trooid fuill y chonaant dy bragh farraghtyn,

Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,

21

Shiuish y niartaghey ayns dy chooilley obbyr vie dy yannoo e aigney, gobbraghey ayndiu shen ta booisal ayns e hilley, trooid Yeesey Creest; huggey dy row gloyr son dy bragh as dy bragh. Amen.

Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

22

As ta mee guee erriu, vraaraghyn, gow-jee rish y goo dy choyrle, son ta mee er scrieu hiu ayns focklyn giarey.

And I beseech you, brethren, suffer the word of exhortation: for I have written a letter unto you in few words.

23

Toig-jee dy vel nyn mraar Timothy ec reamys; marishyn, my hig eh dy gerrit, hee-ym shiu.

Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.

24

Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you.

25

Grayse dy row mêriu ooilley, Amen.

Grace be with you all. Amen.
