< 2 Corinthians 1 >
1 Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ by the purpose of God, and Timothy the brother, to the church of God which is in Corinth, with all the saints who are in all Achaia:
Khawsa kawngaihnaak amyihna Jesu Khrih a ceityih na ak awm Paul ingkaw ningnih a naa Timote ing, Korin khaw awhkaw ak awm thlangboel ingkaw, Akhaia qam khuiawh ak awm thlakciimkhqi boeih a venawh:
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ningmih a Pa Khawsa ven ingkaw Boei Jesu Khrih a ven awhkaw qeennaak ingkaw ngaihdingnaak awm seh.
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort;
Ningmih a Bawipa Jesu Khrih a Pa ingkaw ngaihdingnaak boeih a Pa Khawsa venawh thangleeknaak awm seh,
4 Who gives us comfort in all our troubles, so that we may be able to give comfort to others who are in trouble, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
Khawsa venawh kawng ni huh ngaihdingnaak ingkaw kyinaak ak hukhqi ce ngaihdingnaak awi nik kqawn peeknaak thai aham, kyinaak boeih awh amah ing ngaihdingnaak ce ni pehy.
5 For as we undergo more of the pain which Christ underwent, so through Christ does our comfort become greater.
Khrih ak khuikha a huhnaak ce ningnih a hqingnaak awh ang lawng lawt amyihna, Khrih ak caming ngaihdingnaak awm lawng law lawt hy.
6 But if we are troubled, it is for your comfort and salvation; or if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which takes effect through your quiet undergoing of the same troubles which we undergo:
Kawseet ngaihkyinaak ham ingkaw hulnaak ahamni; kaimih ka mingngaih a ding awhtaw, nangmih naming ngaih a dingnaak aham ingkaw hulnaak ahamni; ce ing ce kaimih ing ka ming yh kyinaak ce yh thainaak ni pek khqi hy.
7 And our hope for you is certain; in the knowledge that as you take part in the troubles, so you will take part in the comfort.
Nangmih aham kaimih ang ngaih-unaak ve cak hy, kaimih ak khuikhanaak nami ni qup pyi adawngawh, kaimih a ngaihdingnaak awm ni qup pyi lawt kawm uk ti.
8 For it is our desire that you may not be without knowledge of our trouble which came on us in Asia, that the weight of it was very great, more than our power, so that it seemed that we had no hope even of life:
Koeinaakhqi, Asia qam awh kyinaak kami huh ce a sim kaana nami awm aham am ngaih unyng. Am kami yh thai dyna, khuikhanaak ce thihhlo dyna yh unyng.
9 Yes, we ourselves have had the answer of death in ourselves, so that our hope might not be in ourselves, but in God who is able to give life to the dead:
Kak kawk khuiawh taw thihnaak hu hawh kawng unyng, tinawh poek unyng. Cehlai ka mimah awh ang hang kaana, thlakthi ak thawhkung Khawsa awh ka ming hangnaak thai ahamni vemyihna a awm.
10 Who gave us salvation from so great a death: on whom we have put our hope that he will still go on to give us salvation;
Anih ing cemyih thihpit dyna awmnaak awhkawng ni loet sak khqi hy, haiben awh awm ni loet sak hyn bai kaw. Anih ing ni loet sak khqi bai kaw, tinawh ngaih-unaak ce ak khanawh ta unyng,
11 You at the same time helping together by your prayer for us; so that for what has been given to us through a number of persons, praise may go up to God for us from all of them.
nangmih ing cykcahnaak ing ni bawm uhyk ti. Thlang khawzah ak cykcahnaak ce am qeennaak ak caming thung na a awm a dawngawh kaimih ang zyngna thlang khawzah ing zeelnaak awi kqawn kawm uh.
12 For our glory is in this, in the knowledge which we have that our way of life in the world, and most of all in relation to you, has been holy and true in the eyes of God; not in the wisdom of the flesh, but in the grace of God.
Ve ve kaimih a zoeksangnaak na awm hy: ka mimah awhkaw ak che ak leek simnaak kawlung ing Khawsa ven awhkaw ciimcaihnaak, kawlung tang ing khawmdek awh, awipui na nangmih mi tuqunaak awh ak nep na khaw sa unyng tice ni sim sak hy. Khawmdek cyihnaak ing cemyihna bi am bi unyng saw Khawsa am qeennaak ak caming ni.
13 For in our letters we say no other things to you, but those which you are reading, and to which you give agreement, and, it is my hope, will go on doing so to the end:
Ikawtih nangmih ing am nami noet thai ingkaw am naming zaksim ce am qee law nyng.
14 Even as you have been ready, in part, to say that we are your glory, in the same way that you are ours, in the day of the Lord Jesus.
Kaimih ve ak kek am tai awm nami ning zaksim hawh dawngawh, Bawipa Jesu a nyn awh nangmih awh ka zoeksang qu aham a awm amyihna, kaimih awh awm nangmih zoeksang qu kawm uk ti, tice ak soep cana zasim bit kawm uk ti tinawh ngaih-u unyng.
15 And being certain of this, it was my purpose to come to you before, so that you might have a second grace;
Ikawtih vawhkaw yp qunaak ka taak dawngawh, nangmih hih voei na nami hawihkhangnaak ham, lamma na nangmih a venawh law aham cai nyng.
16 And by way of Corinth to go into Macedonia, and from there to come back again to you, so that you might send me on my way to Judaea.
Makedonia na ka ceh awh nangmih hqip pahoei aham cai nyng, cekcoengawh Makedonia awhkawng nangmih a venna law tlaih aham cai nyng, cawhkawng Judah dyna nangmih ing ni thak uh, ti nyng.
17 If then I had such a purpose, did I seem to be changing suddenly? or am I guided in my purposes by the flesh, saying, Yes, today, and, No, tomorrow?
Vemyihna kang cai awh, a zanghoep cana nu kang cai? Kang hqi ing, “Oeih, oeih” am awhtaw “Am, am” ka tinaak ham khawmdek phung na nu kang cai?
18 As God is true, our word to you is not Yes and No.
Cehlai Khawsa taw a yp a awm dawngawh, kaimih ak awithang ve nangmih a venawh, “Oeih” ingkaw “Am” amni.
19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom we were preaching among you, even I and Silvanus and Timothy, was not Yes and No, but in him is Yes.
Ikawtih Khawsa Capa, Jesu Khrih, nangmih a venawh kai, Sila ingkaw Timote mi ing kamik khypyi ce, “Am” ingkaw “Oeih” amni, Cehlai amah awhtaw a poepa na “Oeih” na awm hy.
20 For he is the Yes to all the undertakings of God: and by him all the words of God are made certain and put into effect, to the glory of God through us.
Ikawtih Khawsa ing iqyt awi taaknaak sai mai seiawm, Khrih awh cemyihkhqi boeih ce “Oeih” na awm hy. Anih ak caming Khawsa thangleeknaak aham ningnih ing “Amen” ni ti uhy.
21 Now he who makes our faith strong together with you, in Christ, and has given us of his grace, is God;
Khawsa ing ni kaimih ingkaw nangmih ve Khrih awh ak cak na a ning dyih sak khqi. Anih ing situi ni syp khqi nawh,
22 And it is he who has put his stamp on us, even the Spirit, as the sign in our hearts of the coming glory.
amah a koena ni awmnaak tacik ce ni deng sih khqi nawh, Ciim Myihla ce nipek khqi hy.
23 But God is my witness that it was in pity for you that I did not come to Corinth at that time.
Nangmih hlyn aham ka ngaih awh ni Korin khaw na am kang hlat hy, tice anik sim pyikung na Khawsa ta nyng.
24 Not that we have authority over your faith, but we are helpers of your joy: for it is faith which is your support.
Nangmih ak cangnaak awh ak cak na naming dyih dawngawh, nangmih a zeelnaak ahamni nangmih mi bi ni bi haih uh hy.
