2 Kawrin 7

1 Thintlo rhoek aw olkhueh he om tangloeng ta, pumsa neh mueihla kaha tihnai boeih lamloh mah neh mah cilpoe uh sih. Pathen rhihnah dongah cimcaihnah te soep sak uh sih.

Seeing, therefore, we have these promises, my beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of the flesh and of the spirit; and let us work righteousness, in the fear of God.

2 Kaimih ham ana hoep uh. Kaimih loh ka thae sak uh moenih, ka poeih uh moenih, ka omtoem uh moenih.

Bear with us, my brethren; we have done evil to no one; we have corrupted no one; we have wronged no one.

3 Laipupnah ham khaw ka thui moenih. Kaimih thinko kah te ni ka thui. Te daengah ni aka duek hmaih neh aka hing hmaih la na om uh eh.

I speak thus, not to condemn you; for I have said before, that ye are treasured in our hearts, to die and to live together.

4 Nangmih taengah muep ka sayalh. Nangmih yueng la hoemdamnah muep ka khueh. Thaphohnah te ka hah. Kaimih kah phacip phabaem boeih ah omngaihnah neh ka baesawt.

I have great assurance before you, and have much glorying in you; and I am full of comfort. And joy greatly aboundeth to me, in all my afflictions.

5 Makedonia la ka pawk uh tih kaimih pumsa loh a hilhoemnah khueh pawh. Tedae rhoepsaep dongkah poeng lamkah rhalthohnah neh a khuikah rhihnah loh m'phaep uh.

For, after we came to Macedonia, there was no rest for our body, but we were distressed in every thing; without was conflict, and within was fear.

6 Tedae tlayae rhoek aka hloep Pathen loh Titu kah ha lonah neh mamih n'hloep coeng.

But God who comforteth the depressed, comforted us by the arrival of Titus.

7 A lonah bueng nen pawt tih thaphohnah nen te khaw nangmih n'hloep thil coeng. Nangmih te mueihuenah, nguekcoinah, kai soah nangmih kah kohlopnah te kaimih taengla ha puen dongah muep ka omngaih bal.

And not merely by his arrival, but also by the refreshing with which he was refreshed by you. For he told us of your love towards us, and of your grief, and of your zeal in our behalf: and when I heard it, my joy was great.

8 Capat neh nangmih kang kothet sak mai cakhaw ka yut pawh. Ka yut mai cakhaw tekah capat loh khonoek pakhat bueng ni nangmih te ng'kothet sak eh tila ka hmuh.

And although I made you sad by the epistle, I do not regret it, though I did regret it; for I see that that epistle, though for a time it made you sad,

9 Na kothet uh dongah pawt tih yutnah ham na kothet uh dongah ka omngaih coeng. Pathen kongaih la na kothet uh dongah kaimih rhangneh na sungdaeh mahpawh.

yet it procured me joy, not because ye had sorrow, but because your sorrow brought you to repentance; for ye sorrowed in godly sorrow; so that ye received no detriment from us.

10 Pathen kongaih la kothaenah loh khangnah ham yutnah te khangmai laa saii. Tedae Diklai kah kothaenah loh dueknah a thoeng sak.

For, sorrowing on account of God, worketh a conversion of the soul which is not reversed, and a turning unto life: but the sorrowing of the world worketh death.

11 Amah te long ni Pathen kongaih la khothet sak ham nangmih ah thahluenah, olthungnah, yakdamnah, rhihnah, mueihuenah, kohlopnah, kutthungnah metlam a thoeng sak te. A cungkuem dongah namah neh namah te oep uh lamtah bitat dongah a cuem la om uh.

For behold this same thing, that ye were distressed on account of God, what solicitude it wrought in you, and apologizing and indignation, and fear, and love, and zeal, and revenge? And in all things ye have shown, that ye are now pure in that matter.

12 Te dongah nangmih taengah kan daek van atah thaesai rhoek kongah moenih. Thaesai rhoek kongah moenih. Tedae kaimih ham na thahluenah dongah nangmih te Pathen hmaiah phoe sak ham dongah ni.

And it will be seen that I wrote to you, not for the sake of him who did the wrong, nor for the sake of him who received the wrong, only, but that your solicitude in respect to us might be known before God.

13 Te dongah ka ngaimong uh. Tedae kaimih kah thaphohnah voelah Titu kah omngaihnah dongah muep ka omngaih uh ngai. Nangmih boeih rhangneh a mueihla tah caih coeng.

Wherefore we were comforted; and with our consolation, we were the more joyful for the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all:

14 Anih te nangmih soah bet ka pomsang akhaw yah ka poh moenih. Tedae nangmih taengah oltak la boeih ka thui uh. Te dongah kaimih kah hoemdamnah loh Titu te a thuem la a tueng sak.

so that I was not ashamed of that in which I had gloried to him, respecting you; but as in every thing we spoke the truth to you, so also our glorying before Titus, is found to be in truth:

15 A kotak tah nangmih ham muep om. Anih te rhihnah, thuennah neh na doe uh dongah nangmih pum kah olngainah khaw a thoelh.

and also his bowels are the more enlarged towards you, while he remembereth the submission of you all, and how ye received him with fear and trembling.

16 Rhoepsaep dongah nangmih rhangneh ka sayalh te ka omngaih.

I rejoice, that in every thing I have full confidence in you.
