2 Korinthians 8
1 Mini vayi ki sun duye to ndi alherin Rji wa bano ni Ikilisiyoyin ni Makidoniya.
BUT we make known to you, my brethren, the grace of Aloha which hath been given to the churches of Makedunia;
2 Ni ton kekle ya wa bi to ni se suron ni ya wabato, anoba gbugbu'u gri wa ba noni suron riri
that in the great trial of their affliction there hath been an abounding of their joy; and the depth of their poverty hath been exceeded by the riches of their simplicity.
3 U mi lha niyiwu bano bayasuwa mbo ni yo sur mba zan kpe wa ba hei ni wu. ni kpayeme ni sur mba.
For I testify, that according to their power, and more than their power, in the willingness of their soul,
4 U ni bre ta ni sur riri duba no ba ton waba ka mba ibi du ba yi tayarwa ini hidima ga bi hu Rji.
they besought of us, with much supplication, that they might participate in the beneficence of the ministry for the saints.
5 U wayi ana hei na waki yosuron u baguci no tumba ni Rji riko u nita ni kpayeme ni Rji
And not as we had supposed, but they gave themselves up first to the Lord, and also to us by the will of Aloha.
6 U ki bre Titus wa riga hei ni mi ndu yi ka kle ndu'a niyi.
For we would request of Titos, that as he had begun, so he would carry into accomplishment this beneficence among you also.
7 U bi riga kri nimikpi wu ban gaskiya ndi tere, nito, ni mindu tukuru, nimi kpayeme ni ta. Ahei naki, bitabata ni habaka nimi duyi wu no (bayasuwa)
But as you have excelled in every thing, in faith, and in doctrine, and in knowledge, and in all diligence, and in our love toward you, so also in this beneficence may you excel.
8 Me tere naki ana hei neme tere niyiwu ni gbegblen na wa naki, me tere nime tsar sahihancin kpayeme ni kwantata ni himmar ibru ndi.
Not as though commanding I command you, but, from the diligence of your companions, the truth of your love would I put to the test.
9 U bi to alheri Ubangijinku Yesu Almasihu, u naki me ahei ni arziki nda k'mati wu ya ni tumbi domin hi tu taulauci ma biyi bi ka k'ma ti bi arziki.
FOR you know the beneficence of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, that for your sake he became poor, though he was rich, that you through his poverty might be enriched.
10 Nitu alamariyi me noyi mer waanizoyi. Nisai wa kle binati kps megye na, ama bi yo surbi ni tei U.
But counselling I counsel you this which helpeth you; because from the last year you began not to will only, but also to do.
11 Bi kle u zizan'a. Na wa bina hei ni suron ni kwazo u ti naki niton ki, bikayo suron ndi tiye nikle ma dede ni gbegblen mbi.
But now accomplish in work that which you willed, that as there hath been an incitement to will, so accomplish it in work from what you have.
12 U bi tayo suron ndi bi tie ndu yi wakpe wugir ni kpayeme ni ubi ani hei daidai kpe wa ndi ahei ni wu, ana kpe wa a hama ni wu'a na.
For if there be the will, according to what one hath, so is (he) accepted, and not according to what he hath not.
13 Wayi ana wani kpe wa ba nawata ni yiu du bari fe sauki mana. U ani ta hei toki, wani bi duba fe daidai- tuwa.
Neither must there be to others ease, and to you anxiety,
14 Ison bi gbugbu'u zizo'a ani noyi kpe wabason. Wa naki ni bar mba, ani yada na kpe wa bi son, wa ani zama kpe u biya bukata mba.
but in equality be you at this time; that your abundance may be a supply to their want, that also their abundance may be for to your want, that there may be equality.
15 Ahei na wa ba nha. “Eri wa hei ni kpewu bra na hei nikpe wa ani don burna, u wa ahei niwu fime ana wa hama na
As it is written, He who took up much had no superfluity, and he who took up little was not deficient.
16 U gyir ga Rji wa ayoni suron Titus imre u kula ni yi kama yadda mi hei wa ni tumbi.
But praise to Aloha who in-gave this solicitude for you to the heart of Titos.
17 Ana bre mbu kadai akpana U ati ni kpeyeme suron ma naki. Aye ni yi ni kpayeme makima.
For our request he accepted; and because he had great concern, of his own will he hath come forth among you.
18 U ki ton wawu vayimbu wa ki kpayeme niwu ni du Ikilisiyoyi du ma ni bla tre Baci.
But we have sent with him our brother, whose praise in the gospel is in all the churches;
19 Ana wayi nika kle na amma Ikilisiyoyi ba cu u du nu ta hi hidima u didin ma u alheri wayi domin gbrai Rji san ni niya mbu
who hath, moreover, been chosen by the churches to go forth with us with this bounty which is ministered by us to the glory of Aloha himself, and unto our cordiality.
20 U ki klu kina duba na to ta hla trena game ni alheri wa ki zre ni bla ni ndina.
For we are precautious in this, that no one should lay upon us any imputation
21 A he ni suron mbu du tati kpe u bima ba ni shishi Rji ni kakle ba ni shishi indi me.
with regard to this great bounty which is to be administered by us. For we are careful for the things which are comely, not only before Aloha, but also before men.
22 Kiton vayimbu ri tare ni ba ki tsar u to nikon gbugbu'u, ki to wa hei ni himma ni indu. Wa a ba yondu gbugbuu wa ba yo du ti. Zizan me a kara ni himma sabo ni amincewa wa ahe niu game ni yi.
But we have also sent with them our brother, whom we have often proved in many to be diligent; but now still more diligent from the great confidence he hath concerning you.
23 Ni wawu Titus a kpan wu zre mu ni kpan wadunmu don biyi. Umir vayi mbu, ba ton ba yir ni Ikilisiyoyi babi hei ni daraja ga Almasihu.
Whether, then, (you regard) Titos, he is my companion and helper among you, or the other brethren, they are the apostles of the churches of the glory of Meshiha.
24 Naki bika kpayeme ni ba ni tsor ikilisiyoyi ba kpe u se suron tawu game ni yi.
Wherefore the demonstration of your love, and of our boasting concerning you in these, make manifest in the sight of all the churches.
