2 Corinthians 7
1 Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every filthiness of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in fear of God.
Me nnamfo pa, wɔahyɛ yɛn saa bɔ yi nyinaa. Enti, momma yɛnte yɛn ho mfiri biribiara a ɛgu honam anaa ɔkra no ho fi ho na yɛntena ase Onyankopɔn mu mfa nte yɛn ho kronn.
2 Make room for us. We wronged no man, we corrupted no man, we exploited no man.
Mommue mo akoma mu mma yɛn. Yɛnyɛɛ obiara bɔne. Yɛnsisii obiara na yɛmmuu obiara kwasea nso.
3 I speak not for condemnation, for I have said before that ye are in our hearts to die together and to live together.
Merenka saa asɛm yi mfa ngu mo anim ase. Sɛdeɛ madi ɛkan aka no, yɛdɔ mo enti, daa sɛ yɛwu o, yɛte ase o, mowɔ yɛn akoma mu.
4 Great is my boldness toward you, great is my pride for you. I have been filled with encouragement. I over-abound with joy in all our affliction.
Megye mo di enti mede mo hoahoa me ho. Yɛn haw nyinaa mu no, mempaa aba. Mede ahosɛpɛ retu mmirika no.
5 For even when we came into Macedonia our flesh had not one relief, but being oppressed in everything: battles outside, fears within.
Mpo yɛduruu Makedonia no, yɛanhome. Na ɔhaw wɔ hɔ baabiara. Na akasakasa wɔ wɔn ntam. Afei, na ehu wɔ yɛn akoma mu.
6 Nevertheless God, who encourages the lowly, encouraged us by the arrival of Titus.
Onyankopɔn a ɔhyɛ wɔn a wɔpa aba den no nam Tito ba a ɔbaeɛ no so hyɛɛ yɛn den.
7 And not only by his presence, but also by the encouragement with which he was encouraged by you, reporting to us your earnest desire, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced the more.
Ɛnyɛ ne ba a ɔbaeɛ no nko, na mmom, ka a ɔbɛkaa sɛ mohyɛɛ no nkuran no. Ɔkaa sɛdeɛ mopɛ sɛ mohunu me no kyerɛɛ me. Ɔkaa sɛdeɛ modii yea ne sɛdeɛ na moasiesie mo ho sɛ mobɛbɔ me ho ban no enti seesei, ama mʼani agye sene kane no.
8 Because even though I grieved you in the letter, I am not remorseful (even though I was remorseful), for I perceive that that letter grieved you, even though for an hour.
Sɛ me krataa a metwerɛɛ mo no hyɛɛ mo awerɛhoɔ a, ɛnyɛ me ya sɛ metwerɛeɛ. Ahyɛaseɛ no ɛhaa me nanso seesei deɛ ɛnha me. Menim sɛ krataa no mu nsɛm hoo mo werɛ ɛberɛ tiawa bi.
9 Now I rejoice, not that ye were grieved, but that ye were grieved for repentance. For ye were grieved toward God, so that ye might suffer loss from us in nothing.
Nanso, seesei deɛ, mʼani agye, ɛnyɛ sɛ memaa mo werɛ hoeɛ no enti, na mmom, sɛ mo awerɛhoɔ no ama moasesa mo akwan. Onyankopɔn na ɔmaa mo werɛ hoeɛ enti yɛn deɛ, yɛanha mo.
10 For sorrow toward God works repentance for salvation without regret, but the sorrow of the world works death.
Awerɛhoɔ a Onyankopɔn de baa mo so no enti, moanya ahonuo bi a ɛnam so de mo bɛkɔ nkwagyeɛ mu; enti ɛnsɛ sɛ ɛyɛ mo ya. Nanso, awerɛhoɔ a ewiase de brɛ yɛn no deɛ, ɛde owuo na ɛba.
11 For behold this same thing-your grieving toward God. How much eagerness it worked in you, even a defense, even indignation, even fear, even longing, even zeal, even vengeance! In everything ye demonstrated yourselves to be pure in the matter.
Monhwɛ deɛ Onyankopɔn nam ho a ɔmaa mo werɛ hooɛ so ayɛ. Mopɛ sɛ mofiri mo akoma mu kyerɛ sɛ monni fɔ. Mo bo afu. Mo ho adwiri mo. Mo ho pere mo, pɛ sɛ mohunu sɛ atɛntenenee ayɛ adwuma. Moakyerɛ sɛ modi bem wɔ asɛm yi ho.
12 And so then, although I wrote to you, it was not because of the man who did wrong, nor because of the man who was wronged, but in order to reveal to you your eagerness for us in the sight of God.
Ɛwom sɛ metwerɛɛ saa krataa no deɛ, nanso ɛnyɛ obi a ɔyɛ bɔne anaa obi a wɔyɛ no bɔne enti na metwerɛeɛ. Metwerɛ bɛkyerɛɛ mo mu sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn anim, mode mo ho nyinaa ama yɛn no.
13 Because of this we have been encouraged. And from your encouragement, we rejoiced to a greater degree more at the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by you all.
Ɛno na ɛhyɛ yɛn nkuran no. Ɛnyɛ nkuranhyɛ a ɛhyɛɛ yɛn no nko. Tito nso nam gye a mogyee no maa nʼani gyeeɛ no so maa yɛn nso ani gyeeɛ.
14 Because, if I have boasted anything to him about you, I am not ashamed, but as we spoke all things in truth to you, so also our boast to Titus became truth.
Mede mo ahoahoa me ho akyerɛ no na moanni me hwammɔ. Daa yɛka nokorɛ kyerɛ mo na hoa a mede mo hoahoa me ho kyerɛ Tito no nso aba mu.
15 And his bowels are more abundant toward you, remembering the obedience of you all, how ye received him with fear and trembling.
Enti, sɛ ɔkae sɛdeɛ mo nyinaa pɛɛ sɛ moyɛ ɔsetie ma no na mode obuo ne anidie gyee no fɛ so no a, ɛma ɔdɔ a ɔdɔ mo no mu den ara na ɛreyɛ.
16 I rejoice that I have confidence in you in everything.
Ɛyɛ me anigye sɛ mɛtumi de me ho nyinaa ato mo so.
