Mission Rianttuannak caah Bible bia:

Cu caah khuazakip ah va kal ulaw miphun vialte kha ka zultu ah va ser hna u; Pa le Fapa le Thiang Thlarau min in tipilnak va pe hna ulaw kan fial mi vialte hna hi an zulh nak hnga van cawnpiak hna u. . ." tiah a ti hna (Matthai 28:18-20)
"Rawlttuan awk cu a tampi ko nain a ttuantu cu tlawmte long an si" (Luka 10:2)
Cun Bawipa nih, "Ahodah ka fial lai? Ahodah ka lamkaltu a si lai? a ti kha ka theih. Kei ni, "Keimah ka kal lai! Ka thlah tuah" tiah ka leh (Isaiah 6:8).
"An zumh lo ahcun zeitindah a min cu an au khawh lai? Cu bia cu an theih lo ahcun zeitindah ah zumh khawh lai? Cun bia cu chimh an si lo ahcun zeitindah a theih khawh lai? Cun Lamkaltu kha an thlah hna lo ahcun zeitindah bia cu thanh a si khawh lai? Cathiang nih thawngttha a chim tu hna ke cu a va dawh dah," a ti bantuk khan a si taktak (Rom 10:4-15)
"Miphun a lianhngantertu cu dinnak a si, sualnak cu zei miphun paoh caah ningzahnak a si" (Phungthlukbia 14:34)
"Thawngttha a chimtu miphun hna keneh cu aa dawh. Pathian dinnak a ttanhmi miphun cu zohchunh awk tlak le cawisanmi miphun an si. Miphun dang hna nih ttihzah le upatnak an pek tawn hna. Milu a tlawm mi miphun caah sining dawhte a herh khun. Pathian bia hi nunzia dawhnak hrampi cu a si."
