2 Kawrin 2
1 Te dongah nangmih taengah kothaenah la koep lo pawt ham ka ko ka taam coeng.
But I determined this in myself, that with sorrow I would not again come to you:
2 Kai loh nangmih te kang kothet sak cakhaw kamah loh kan kothet sak rhoek pawt atah u long kai n'uum?
for if I cause you to grieve, who is he that makes me glad, but he that is made sorry by me?
3 Ka pawk vaengah kothaenah ka khueh pawt ham ni hekah he ka daek. Amih kaha omngaih ham ni ka kuek. Nangmih boeih kah omngaihnah te kai kah omngaihnah ni tila nangmih boeih te kan ngaitang thil coeng.
And I wrote to you this very thing, that, on coming to you, I might not have sorrow from those from whom I ought to receive joy; because I have confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.
4 Phacip phabaem neh thinko ngaisaknah boeih lamloh mikphi puem neh nangmih ham kan daek te, nangmih te kothet sak ham pawt tih lungnah muep ka khueh te na ming uh van ham ni.
For out of much affliction and distress of heart, I wrote to you with many tears: not that you might be grieved, but that you might know the love which I have more abundantly for you.
5 Tahae ah khat khat loh n'kothet sak cakhaw kai n'kothet sak moenih. Tedae cungvang ah pataeng nangmih boeih te kan thinrhih sak moenih.
But if any one has caused grief, he has grieved, not me only, but, in some measure―not to speak harshly―all of you.
6 Hlanga yet kah toelnah he amih taengah cung mai coeng.
Sufficient for such a one is the punishment, which was inflicted by the greater number:
7 Te dongah nangmih loh khodawkngai neh a khuplat la lat hloep uh mai. Amih tah kothaenah muep dolh mai boel saeh.
so that, on the other hand, you should rather forgive and comfort him, lest such a one should be swallowed up in too much sorrow.
8 Te dongah tebang hlang taengah lungnah cak sak ham nangmih kan hloep.
Wherefore, I exhort you to give him an assurance of your love.
9 Cungkuem dongah olngai la na om uh nim tila nangmih kah khinngainah te ming ham ni he khaw ka daek.
For I wrote to you for this purpose also, that I might have a sure proof from you, whether you are obedient in all things.
10 Amih khat khat na rhen bangla ka rhen van. Kai loh khodawk ka ngai te tah nangmih ham ni mebang hlang khaw Khrih mikhmuh ah khodawk ka ngai.
Whom you forgive any thing, I forgive it also: for what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven any thing, I have forgiven for your sake, in the person of Christ,
11 Te daengah ni Satan rhangneh n'omtoem uh pawt eh. Anih kah poeknah soah mangvawt boel sih.
lest an advantage should be taken of us by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his devices.
12 Khrih kah olthangthen ham Troas la ka pawk. Te vaengah Boeipa loh kai ham thohka a ong.
And when I came to Troas to preach the gospel of the Christ, and a door was opened to me in the Lord,
13 Ka mana Titu ka hmuh pawt dongah ka mueihla hilhoemnah om pawh. Tedae amih te ka phih tih Makedonia la ka cet.
I had no rest in my spirit, because I did not find Titus my brother; but I took leave of them, and went into Macedonia.
14 Tedae Khrih ah mamih khophoeng aka pha sak taitu tih, mamih ah amah mingnah a bova la hmuen takuem ah aka ul sak Pathen te lungvatnah sih.
Now, thanks be to God, who always causes us to triumph in the Christ, and sheds in every place, by us, the fragrance of the knowledge of himself.
15 A khang rhoek lakli neh aka poci rhoek lakli ah khaw Pathen taeng lamloh Khrih kah botui la n'om uh.
For, through God, we are a sweet odor of Christ, among the saved, and among the lost:
16 Amih te dueknah taengah dueknah kah a hoipai la bet, khat rhoek tah hingnah taengah hingnah kah a hoipai la om uh. Te dongah he neh ulae aka ting eh.
to the one, we are the odor of death ending in death; to the other, the odor of life ending in life: and who is sufficient for these things?
17 Pathen kah olka aka yoi la muep ka om uh moenih. Tedae Pathen taeng lamkah vanbangla, cimcaihnah neh Khrih khuiah ni Pathen hmaiah ka thui uh.
For we do not, as the many, adulterate the word of God; but, as from sincerity, but, as from God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.
