< 2 Kawrin 1 >

1 Pathen kah kongaih dongah Khrih Jesuh kah caeltueih Paul neh manuca Timothy loh, Kawrin kah aka om Pathen hlangboel neh Akhaia pum ah aka om hlangcim boeih taengah kan yaak sak.
Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy, a brother, to the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in all of Achaia:
2 A pa Pathen neh Boeipa Jesuh Khrih taeng lamkah lungvatnah neh ngaimongnah tah nangmih taengah om saeh.
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Sitlohnah a pa neh thaphohnah boeih kah Pathen, Pathen neh mamih Boeipa Jesuh Khrih kah a napa tah uemom pai saeh.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all consolation.
4 Kaimih kah phacip phabaem soeprhaep dongah amah loh mamih n'hloep. Te daengah ni Pathen loh mamih n'hloep tih tekah thaphohnah lamloh phacip phabaem soeprhaep dongah aka om rhoek te mamih loh n'hloep thai eh.
He consoles us in all our tribulation, so that we too may be able to console those who are in any kind of distress, through the exhortation by which we also are being exhorted by God.
5 Khrih kah patangnah loh mamih taengah a baetawt vanbangla, Khrih rhangneh mamih kah thaphohnah khaw baetawt van.
For just as the Passion of Christ abounds in us, so also, through Christ, does our consolation abound.
6 Tahae ah n'lawn uh cakhaw nangmih ham thaphohnah neh khangnah la om coeng. N'hloephoelh akhaw nangmih kah thaphohnah la om. Ka patang uh vaengah tekah patangnah tah amah ah uehnah la thoeng.
So, if we are in tribulation, it is for your exhortation and salvation, or if we are in consolation, it is for your consolation, or if we are exhorted, it is for your exhortation and salvation, which results in the patient endurance of the same passion which we also endure.
7 Te dongah kaimih kah ngaiuepnah tah nangmih ham khangmai coeng. Aka ming long tah patangnah neh thaphohnah kah pueipo banglam khaw na om tangloeng.
So may our hope for you be made firm, knowing that, just as you are participants in the suffering, so also shall you be participants in the consolation.
8 Manuca rhoek na mangvawt uh ham ka ngaih uh moenih. Mamih kah phacip phabaem bangla Asia ah om. Thaomnah kaha voelah a puehkan la bakba n'hap uh tih mamih hing ham pataeng n'tal uh coeng te.
For we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, about our tribulation, which happened to us in Asia. For we were weighed down beyond measure, beyond our strength, so that we became weary, even of life itself.
9 Tedae mamih tah mah khuiah dueknah te oltloeknahla ng'khueh. Te dongah mah dongah aka pangtung la om uh boel sih lamtah aka duek rhoek te aka thoh Pathen dongah pangtung uh sih.
But we had within ourselves the response to death, so that we would not have faith in ourselves, but in God, who raises the dead.
10 Amah loh te tluk aih la dueknah lamloh mamih n'hlawt coeng tih n'hlawt bal ni. N'hlawt bal pueng ni tila amah te n'ngaiuep uh.
He has rescued us, and he is rescuing us, from great peril. In him, we hope that he will continue to rescue us.
11 Nangmih loh kaimih ham rhenbihnah nen khaw m'bongyong uh. Te daengah ni mamih taengkah maelhmai cungkuem loh kutdoe neh cungkuem la mamih yuengla a uem eh.
And you are assisting, with your prayers for us, so that from many persons, by that which is a gift in us, thanks may be given through many persons, because of us.
12 Mamih mingcimnah kah laipai tah mamih kah hoemdamnah la om coeng he. Te tah Pathen kah moeihoeihnah neh cimcaihnah khuikah ni. Te dongah nangmih taengah taoe tah pumsa cueihnah nen pawt tih Pathen kah lungvatnah nen ni Diklai ah kho ka sak uh.
For our glory is this: the testimony of our conscience, which is found in simplicity of heart and in sincerity toward God. And it is not with worldly wisdom, but in the grace of God, that we have conversed with this world, and more abundantly toward you.
13 Nangmih ham kan daek uh phoeiah na tae uh tih na ming uh te khaw a tloe moenih, a bawtnah te na hmat uh bitni tila ka ngaiuep.
For we write nothing else to you other than what you have read and understood. And I hope that you will continue to understand, even unto the end.
14 A cungvang neh kaimih nan hmat uh vanbangla mamih Boeipa Jesuh kah khohnin ah nangmih khaw kaimih kah, kaimih khaw nangmih kah thangpomnah la n'om uh.
And just as you have acknowledged us in our role, that we are your glory, so also you are ours, unto the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 A pabae la lungvatnah na dang uh ham te pangtungnah neh nangmih taengla pawk ham ka cai lamhma.
And with this confidence, I wanted to come to you sooner, so that you might have a second grace,
16 Tedae nangmih taeng longah Makedonia la ka lan vetih, Makedonia lamloh nangmih taengla koep ka pawk vaengah nangmih loh Judea la n'thak uh.
and through you to pass into Macedonia, and to return to you again from Macedonia, and so be led by you on my way to Judea.
17 He tlam he ka cai dongah a phoeng la ka rhoidoeng van moenih. Ka thui te khaw pumsa nim? Te dongah a tak te a tak bangla, a hong tah a hong bangla kamah taengah rhep om saeh.
Then, although I had intended this, did I act lightly? Or in the things that I consider, do I consider according to the flesh, so that there would be, with me, both Yes and No?
18 Pathen tah uepom la om ta. Tedae a hong a tak khaw kaimih kah olka he nangmih taengah a om moenih.
But God is faithful, so our word, which was set before you, was not, in him, both Yes and No.
19 Nangmih taengah Pathen capa Jesuh Khrih ni mamih loh n'hoe. Kai neh, Silvanas neh, Timothy lamloh a hong a tak he a om moenih. Tedae Boeipa amah dongah tah a tak ni aka om.
For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you through us, through myself and Sylvanus and Timothy, was not Yes, and No; but was simply Yes in him.
20 Pathen kah olkhueh a yet vanbanglaa tak he amah dongah ni a om. Te dongah mamih ah thangpomnah om ham khaw, amah dongah Pathen te Amen n'tiuh.
For whatever promises are of God are, in him, Yes. For this reason, too, through him: Amen to God for our glory.
21 Tedae te long te Khrih ah kaimih neh nangmih he n'cak sak tih Pathen loh mamih he n'koelh coeng.
Now the One who confirms us with you in Christ, and who has anointed us, is God.
22 Mamih khaw amah loh kutnoek n'daeng thil tih mamih thinko ah mueihla cungah te m'paek coeng.
And he has sealed us, and he has placed the pledge of the Spirit in our hearts.
23 Kai tah ka hinglu dongah Pathen ni laipai la ka khue. Nangmih n'hlun dongah ni Kawrin la ka pawk pawh.
But I call God as a witness to my soul, that I was lenient with you, in that I did not return to Corinth:
24 Nangmih kah tangnah te ka buem uh moenih. Tedae tangnah neh na pai uh coeng dongah nangmih kah omngaihnah dongah bibipuei la ka om uh.
not because we have dominion over your faith, but because we are assistants of your joy. For by faith you stand.
