2 Korintuh 4
1 Pamhnama m’yeneinak am ahina khutbi a jah peta kyase, kami ktha am se.
Therefore, having this ministry through the mercy we received, we are not faint-hearted;
2 Angthupnaka bilawha khyakeinak kami yawk hütki. Hleihlaknak am bilo u lü, Pamhnama ngthu khyang mhleinak vaia am kami biloki; ngthungtak ksingsak u lü, Pamhnama hmuha khyang naküta ngaiha dawnak va kami biloki.
but have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor adulterating the word of God, but by the manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
3 Kami sanga thangkdaw thupa akya üng pi khyükaki hea phäha ni thupa akya ve.
But if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to them that perish,
4 Acukba am jummeiki he cun khawmdek mhnama johit naw ami ksingnak nghmüp khui üng a jah thupa phäha kyaki. Ami khana vaikia akvai, thangkdaw üngka naw lawkia Khritawa hlüngtainak cun amät Pamhnam kunga tängpüi, ami hmuhnak thei üngka naw Khawmdek mhnam naw a jah thupa kyaki. (aiōn g165)
in whom the God of this world blinded the understandings of the unbelieving, so that they cannot behold the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. (aiōn g165)
5 Kami mäta mawngma am pyen u nawng, Jesuh Khritaw Bawia a kyanak la Jesuha phäha m'ya kami kyanaka mawng ni kami pyen ve.
For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves your bond-servants for Jesus' sake.
6 Jesuh Khritawa hmai üng Pamhnama hlüngtainak, ksingnaka akvai, vainak jah pe khaia, “Nghmüp üngka akvai vai law khai,” tikia Pamhnam kung naw mi mlungmthin he üng akvai vai lawsaki.
For it is God, who commanded light to shine out of darkness, that shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.
7 Cunsepi khyaihnak cun mimi üngka am kya lü, Pamhnama vei üngka akyanak a ngdangnak vaia, acuna ngmüimkhya khawh cun mdek k’am üng mi taki.
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the exceeding greatness of the power may be of God, and not of us;
8 Ahmäi üng ami jah mkhuimkha, cunsepi am kami mhmüiki; kami mlung naki, cunsepi kami mlung am uplat ve;
being troubled on every side, yet not distressed; perplexed, but not in despair;
9 kami ye daki, cunsepi kami püi he awmki he; ami jah mkhuimkha, cunsepi am kami pyehki;
persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
10 kami pumsa üng Jesuha xünnak angdangnak vaia, Jesuha thihnak kami pumsa üng angläta kami phüiki.
always bearing about in the body the dying of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our body.
11 Isetiakyaküng, thi theikia kami pumsa üng Jesuha xünnak angdangnak thei vaia, kami xün k'um üng Jesuha phäha thi khai hlawka ami jah pawh khawi.
For we who live are continually delivered up to death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal flesh.
12 Acunakyase, thihnak naw keimi üng khutbi bi se, xünnak naw nangmi üng khutbi biki.
So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
13 Cangcim üng, “Ka juma phäha ngthu ka pyenki” tia a ng’yuka kba, acuna ngmüimkhya jumnak bä am keimi naw pi kami pyenki.
But having the same spirit of faith, according to that which is written, “I believed, and therefore I spoke,” we also believe, and therefore speak;
14 Bawipa Jesuh mtho bekia Pamhnam naw keimi pi Jesuh mah maha jah mtho be lü, nangmi am atänga a veia jah cehpüi khai tia kami ksingki.
knowing that he who raised up the Lord Jesus will raise up us also with Jesus, and will present us with you.
15 Avan hin nangmia phäha ni; Pamhnama bäkhäknak cun khyang khawjaha veia apha üng, Pamhnama hlüngtainak cun ktaiyü lü jenak pyen khai he.
For all things are for your sakes, that the grace abounding by means of the greater number may cause thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God.
16 Acunakyase kami mlung ktha am se, kami kpung lam khyang pyehpyam sepi kami ngmüimkhya khyang cun amhmüp tä se pyang be kthai laih laiha kyaki.
For which cause we are not faint-hearted; but though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
17 Am mawngkia kami khuikhanak, atuh asäng khuikhanak kami kham hin naw dämduh lü angläta hlüngtainak law püi khai. Acun cun atuh mi khameia kthaka däm säihki. (aiōnios g166)
For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh out for us, in a higher and still higher degree, an everlasting weight of glory; (aiōnios g166)
18 Hmuh thei am teng u lü, am hmuh thei kami tengki; hmuh theie cun asängca vaia kya lü, am hmuh theie cun angläta kyaki. (aiōnios g166)
while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are but for a time; but the things which are not seen are ever lasting. (aiōnios g166)
