2 Korin 1
1 Sithaw koehhaih baktih toengah Jesu Kri mah patoeh ih kami kai, Pawl hoi aicae ih amnawk Timote mah, Korin vangpui ah kaom Sithaw ih kricaabu hoi Akaia prae thung boih ah kaom kaciim kaminawk boih khaeah ca kang pat hoi:
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the church of God in Corinth, together with all the saints throughout Achaia:
2 aicae Ampa Sithaw, Angraeng Jesu Kri khae ih tahmenhaih hoi monghaih to nangcae khaeah om nasoe.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Palungnathaih Ampa, kaminawk boih monghaih Sithaw, aicae Angraeng Jesu Kri Ampa hoi Sithaw loe pakoehhaih om nasoe.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,
4 Sithaw mah aicae han monghaih paek baktih toengah, aicae mah doeh raihaih tong kaminawk to mongsak thai hanah, Anih mah aicae raihaih boih thung hoiah aicae han monghaih to paek boeh.
who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we can comfort those experiencing any kind of affliction with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.
5 Kri pongah patang a khang o parai baktih toengah, Kri rang hoiah kating ai monghaih to a hnuk o toeng.
For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ.
6 Monghaih hoi pahlonghaih a hnuk o han ih ni vaihi raihaih a tong o. Raihaih ka tong o baktih toengah, nangcae doeh palungsawkhaih hoiah raihaih to na pauep o pongah, ka hnuk o ih monghaih baktih toengah, nangcae mah doeh monghaih hoi pahlonghaih to na hnu o toeng tih.
If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation, which helps you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer. And our hope for you is steadfast. If we are comforted, it is also for your comfort and salvation,
7 Patangkhanghaih tong kami ah na oh o baktih toengah, monghaih hnu kami ah na om o toeng tih, tito ka panoek o naah, nangcae nuiah ka tawnh o ih oephaih to thazok ai.
because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.
8 Nawkamyanawk, Asia prae ah ka tongh o ih raihaih to panoek ai ah ohsak han ka koeh ai; ka tong o ih raihaih loe pauep thai ai, duek han khoek to oh:
We do not want you to be unaware, brothers, of the affliction we experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself.
9 kaicae loe duek han khue ni ka oh o sut boeh, toe kaicae loe kaimacae hoi kaimacae to angoep ai ah, duekhaih thung hoi pathawkkung, Sithaw to ni ka tang o.
Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But this happened so that we would not rely on ourselves, but on God, who raises the dead.
10 Kanung parai duekhaih thung hoiah Sithaw mah kaicae to pahlong boeh, vaihi doeh Anih mah pahlong let bae vop tih, tiah oephaih ka tawnh o;
He rescued us from such a terrible death, and continues to rescue us. We have put our hope in him that he will rescue us yet again
11 kaicae han lawk nang thuih pae o nahaeloe, to tiah paroeai kaminawk mah abomhaih rang hoiah ka hnuk o ih tangqum pongah, kaminawk mah kaicae han kawnhaih lawk na thui pae o thai tih.
as you join in helping us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on your behalf for the favor granted to us through the prayers of many.
12 Aicae amoekhaih loe hae ni: nangcae khae ka oh o naah cae loe, poek pahnaemhaih hoi Sithaw toenghaih hoiah ni kho ka sak o aep; hae long palunghahaih hoi na ai ah, a tahmenhaih rang hoiah ni Sithaw mah ang zaehhoih, tiah kasae kahoih panoekhaih palung hoiah ka thuih o.
Now this is the reason for our confidence: Our conscience testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially toward you, with integrity and godly sincerity, not by worldly wisdom, but by the grace of God.
13 Na kroek o moe, na panoek o ih lok ai ah loe, kalah lok nangcae khaeah ka tarik o ai; vaihi loe na panoek o thai boih tih boeh, tiah oephaih ka tawnh;
For we are not writing anything to you other than what you can read and understand. And I hope that you will understand completely—
14 nangcae mah nazetto maw loe kaicae kawng nang panoek o baktih toengah, Angraeng Jesu ih ani ah, kaicae mah nangcae kam oek o haih baktih toengah, nangcae mah doeh kaicae nam oek o haih toeng tih.
just as you have understood us in part—that on the day of the Lord Jesus you will be proud of us just as we will be proud of you.
15 Hae tiah tanghaih ka tawnh pongah, vaihnetto amekhaih na hnuk o thai hanah, nangcae khae kang zoh hmaloe han, tiah poekhaih ka tawnh;
Because I was confident of this, I intended to come to you first, so that you would be blessed by a second visit.
16 Macedonia prae ah ka caeh naah nangcae khaeah kang paqai moe, Macedonia prae hoiah nangcae khaeah kang zoh let han. To pacoengah nangcae mah Judah prae ah kacaeh hanah na thak oh.
I wanted to visit you on my way to Macedonia and return to you from Macedonia, and then have you send me on my way to Judea.
17 Hae tiah kholong caeh kam sak naah zoidaekta ah maw kam sak? To tih ai boeh loe long taksa baktih toengah, ue, ue, tiah thuih moe, to tih na ai ni, to tih na ai ni, tiah thuih han ih maw kam sak moeng?
Was I vacillating when I planned to do this? Or do I make my plans in a worldly manner, ready to say “Yes” and “No” at the same time?
18 Toe Sithaw loe oepthoh baktih toengah, nangcae khaeah kang thuih o ih lok loe Ue, tiah thuih ih lok ni oh, To tih na ai ni, tiah thuih ih lok to om ai.
As surely as God is faithful, our message to you did not waver between “Yes” and “No.”
19 Kai, Silvana hoi Timote mah, kang thuih o ih Sithaw capa, Jesuh Kri ah loe Ue, tiah thuih ih lok hoi To tih na ai ni, tiah thuih ih lok to om ai, toe Anih ah loe Ue, tiah thuih ih lok ni oh.
For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom Silvanus, Timothy, and I preached among you, did not waver between “Yes” and “No.” On the contrary, in him God's answer has always been “Yes.”
20 Sithaw lokkamhaih boih loe, aicae rang hoiah Sithaw lensawk thai hanah, Anih ah loe Ue, tiah thuih ih lok to oh moe, anih rang hoiah ni Amen, tiah thuihaih lok to doeh oh.
For in him every one of God's promises is “Yes,” and in him we say “Amen” to the glory of God.
21 Anih mah Kri ah vaihi nangcae to kaicae hoi nawnto caksak boeh, kaicae situi bawhkung loe Sithaw ni;
Now it is God who establishes us with you in Christ and who anointed us.
22 Anih mah aicae angmathaih tacik to daengh moe, aicae palung thungah kacak Muithla to paek.
He has also sealed us and put his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.
23 Toe nangcae tahmen pongah ni Korin vangpui ah kang zo ai boeh, tiah ka poekhaih panoekkung Sithaw loe kai hnukung ah oh.
I call upon God as a witness against me, that the reason I did not return to Corinth was to spare you.
24 Nangcae tanghaih nuiah ukhaih akaa ka tawn o ai, toe tanghaih ah nang doet o pongah, anghoehaih na tawnh o thai hanah nangcae hoi nawnto toksah kami ah ni ka oh o.
Not that we rule over your faith; rather, we work with you for your joy, because by faith you stand firm.
