Khrih ah dawtmi Unau hna, nihin ah Zan Khualtlawnnak ah Ceunak le Nemnak Damtertu kong kan ruah hna lai. Exodus 12 chung bia hna kha i cinken in thawk hna u sih, cuka ahcun Pathian zumhawktlak sinak cu lunghrinhnak in a khatmi zan hnulei ah a ceu. Exodus 12:37 in 42 tiang ah, Israelmi hna nih Izipt ram in an chuahnak lam an thawkmi kan hmuh. Ralrinnak zan a si, Pathian biakam a tlin zan a si. Cafang nih Israelmi hna he khual a tlawngmi aa cawhmi mibu kong a chim. Hihi nihin kan caah a ṭhawngmi hmanthlak a si. Hi muihnak caan ahhin, Pathian i ceunak cu phu pakhat lawng si loin hnangamnak le zalonnak a kawlmi vialte sinah a karh ti kha kan hmuh. Ralrinnak zan cu thimmi miphun ca lawngah a si lo nain luatnak a duhmi vialte an i tel.

Atu cu Matthai Thawngṭha ah kan i mer lai, abik in Matthai 12:14 in 21 tiang, cuka ahcun Zaangfahnak a ngeimi Messiah he kan i tong. Hika ah, Jesuh cu Isaiah nih a rak chimchungmi sal a si ti kha kan hngalh. Caang hna nih mah salpa sining pali kha a kan hngalhter ṭhan. Amah cu a nemmi, dawtnak a ngeimi, zaangfahnak a ngeimi le zaangfahnak mission nih a hruaimi a si. Jesuh nih nawlngeihnak nakin zaangfahnak kha a biapi deuh ah a chiah i thazaang nakin nemnak kha a biapi deuh ah a chiah. Hihi a nemmi kan damtertu a si. A kiakmi thingtan kha a rial lo i a alhmi mei kha a hmih lo. Cu nakin, a kan cawmken i a kan zohkhenh, kan muihnak caan hna kha a zawnruahnak in a kan ceuter. Hi bible biatak hna kan ruah tikah, kan chan harnak hna kha kan cohlan. Mangṭam, thlichia, le zawtnak hrik tibantuk thilnung rawhralnak in minung sermi ral, dinlonak le sifahnak tiang, vawlei nih a kan uk tawn. Ngaihchiatnak, thazaang dernak le ṭihnak phun in pumpak muihnak zong kan tong men lai. Hi harnak caan ah, Pathian hnemhnak kawl awkah auh kan si. Mithiang hna le pope hna tuanbia nih kanmah lawng kan si lo ti kha a kan  hngalhter. A thukmi lungdonghnak hmanh ah ruahchannak le ceunak tlawmpal kan hmuh khawh ti kha an kan hmuhsak.

Cucaah, hi hneksaknak hna ahhin zeitindah thazang kan hmuh khawh? Pakhatnak ah, thianghlim tein hngilh awkah sawm kan si. Israelmi hna bantukin, Pathian zumhawktlak a sinak kha i bochan in ralring tein um le thlacam peng awkah thapek kan si. Pahnihnak ah, harnak a tongmi sal kha pumsa in langhter awkah kawh kan si. Hliamhma a tuarmi hna kha kan hrem hna awk a si lo asiloah kan pawngkam ummi hna an lungthin a ṭhawnnak kha kan hloh awk a si lo. Cu nakin zaangfahnak le theihthiamnak he pakhat le pakhat cawisang hna u sih. A donghnak ah, aa cawhmi mibu he khualtlawn dingin thazaang pek kan si. Mah nih hin kan nunnak ah khual pawl cohlan awk, ramdangmi hna zanriah ei awk sawm awk le Khrihfabu rianṭuannak bawmh awkah a kan auh. Israelmi hna bantukin Providence (Kamhmi) kha i bochan hna u sih, thilnu telh lomi changreu lawng i put in, lunghrinnak caan ah i ṭhennak kha cohlang hna u sih. Kanmah le kanmah zan khualtlawnnak kan thawk tikah, a kan hruaitu ceunak le kan pawng i a kalmi nemmi damtertu kha philh hlah u sih. Zaangfahnak um, muihnak chungah ceunak karhtertu le kan tonmi vialte sinah Khrih dawtnak langhtertu si hna u sih. Amen.

Mithiang Óscar Romero (ramchung ral lio):

“Muihnak a tlun tikah, philh hlah: Pathian nih zan a tei i a khua a hung ceu lai.”

St. Faustina Kowalska nih Matthai 12:20:

“Jesuh cu a thinlung ah a rawkmi thingtan a cawitu Pathian Sibawi a si. Na derthawmnak cu a rianṭuannak hmun a si.” (Diary, 1486)

Exodus 12 kong he pehtlai in Pope Benedict XVI:

“Exodus cu tuanbia sawhsawh a si lo—Khrihfa nunnak a ṭhawnnak a si: sal sinak in Tipil innak ti in luatnak tiang.”
