< 2 Corinthians 7 >

1 Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us purify ourselves from every pollution of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in God's fear.
Ya mere, ndị enyi m, ebe anyị nwere nkwa ndị a niile, ka anyị debe onwe anyị ọcha nʼime ihe niile ọbụla nke na-emerụ ahụ anyị na mmụọ anyị. Ka anyị mezuo ịdị nsọ nʼịtụ egwu Chineke.
2 Receive us: we have injured no one, we have ruined no one, we have made gain of no one.
Megheenụ obi unu nabata anyị, nʼihi na o nweghị onye ọbụla nʼetiti unu anyị mere ihe ọjọọ. O nwekwaghị onye anyị duhiere. Ọ dịkwaghị onye ọbụla anyị rigburu.
3 I do not speak for condemnation, for I have already said that ye are in our hearts, to die together, and live together.
Anaghị m ekwu ihe ndị a ka m maa unu ikpe, dịka m kwuburu na mbụ, na anyị bu unu nʼobi anyị, ịdịkọ ndụ, maọbụ ịnwụkọkwa ọnwụ nʼotu.
4 Great [is] my boldness towards you, great my exulting in respect of you; I am filled with encouragement; I overabound in joy under all our affliction.
Nkwuwa okwu m ji gwa unu okwu dị ukwuu; ịnya isi m nʼihi unu dịkwa ukwuu. Abụ m onye a gbara ume nʼebe ọ dị ukwu, nʼime ọnọdụ ahụhụ anyị niile, ana m aṅụrịbiga ọṅụ oke.
5 For indeed, when we came into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but [we were] afflicted in every way; without combats, within fears.
Nʼihi na mgbe anyị batara Masidonia, anyị enweghị izuike ma ọlị. Kama mkpagbu si nʼaka nri na aka ekpe bịakwute anyị, ọgụ nʼezi, egwu nʼime.
6 But he who encourages those that are [brought] low, [even] God, encouraged us by the coming of Titus;
Ma otu ọ dị, Chineke, onye na-agba ndị ike gwụrụ ume, gbara anyị ume site nʼọbịbịa Taịtọs.
7 and not by his coming only, but also through the encouragement with which he was encouraged as to you; relating to us your ardent desire, your mourning, your zeal for me; so that I the more rejoiced.
Ọ bụkwaghị naanị nʼihi na ọbịbịa ọ bịara nyere anyị obi ụtọ, kama akụkọ o ji bịa, gbasara otu unu si gbaa ya ume, gwakwa anyị otu unu si na-ele anya ịhụ m, na otu unu si na-eru ụjụ nʼihi ihe niile mere, na otu unu si guzosie ike nʼukwu m, na ụdị ịhụnanya unu nwere nʼebe m nọ, obi tọrọ m ụtọ nke ukwuu.
8 For if also I grieved you in the letter, I do not regret [it], if even I have regretted it; for I see that that letter, if even [it were] only for a time, grieved you.
Ọ naghị ewutekwa m ugbu a na m deere unu akwụkwọ ahụ, ọ bụ ezie na o wutere m mgbe ahụ m na-ede ya, nʼihi na amaara m na ọ ga-ewetara unu obi ọjọọ mgbe unu gụrụ ya. Ma obi ọjọọ ahụ abụrụla naanị nke nwa oge nta.
9 Now I rejoice, not that ye have been grieved, but that ye have been grieved to repentance; for ye have been grieved according to God, that in nothing ye might be injured by us.
Ma ugbu a ana m aṅụrị ọṅụ na m dere akwụkwọ ahụ. Ọ bụghị nʼihi na ọgụgụ ya wetaara unu obi ọjọọ, kama ọ bụ nʼihi na mwute o wutere unu emeela ka unu chegharịa. Ụdị mwute unu nwere bụ ụdị mwute Chineke chọrọ ka ndị nke ya nwee. Ya mere, o nweghị ihe ọjọọ bịakwasịrị unu nʼihi akwụkwọ anyị deere unu.
10 For grief according to God works repentance to salvation, never to be regretted; but the grief of the world works death.
Nʼihi na iru ụjụ otu Chineke chọrọ na-eweta nchegharị nke na-eduba mmadụ na nzọpụta, bụ nchegharị nke a na-apụghị ịkwa ụta banyere ya. Ma iru ụjụ dịka ụwa si eme na-eweta ọnwụ.
11 For, behold, this same thing, your being grieved according to God, how much diligence it wrought in you, but [what] excusing [of yourselves], but [what] indignation, but [what] fear, but [what] ardent desire, but [what] zeal, but [what] vengeance: in every way ye have proved yourselves to be pure in the matter.
Leenụ ihe Chineke rụpụtara site nʼihe mwute dakwasịrị unu. Ugbu a, unu abụrụla ndị ọ na-anụ ọkụ nʼobi na ndị jikeere izi anyị na aka unu abụọ dị ọcha. Lee otu unu si zi iwe unu, otu unu si zikwa na ihe ahụ wutere unu. Lee otu unu si tụọ ụjọ ihe mmehie ahụ nwere ike iwetara unu. Leekwanụ otu unu si mee ihe niile igosi na unu kwagidere m. Leekwanụ otu unu si nye onye ahụ mere mmehie ahụ ntaramahụhụ ngwangwa. Unu egosila na aka unu dị ọcha nʼokwu ndị a niile.
12 So then, if also I wrote to you, [it was] not for the sake of him that injured, nor for the sake of him that was injured, but for the sake of our diligent zeal for you being manifested to you before God.
Ọ bụ ezie na m deere unu akwụkwọ ahụ, ma edeghị m ya nʼihi onye ahụ mehiere, maọbụ nʼihi onye ahụ e mehiere megide. Kama edere m ya ime ka Chineke gosi unu otu ihe gbasara anyị si na-anụ unu ọkụ nʼobi.
13 For this reason we have been encouraged. And we the rather rejoiced in our encouragement more abundantly by reason of the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by you all.
Nʼụzọ niile ndị a, anyị bụ ndị a gbara ume site nʼịhụnanya unu nwere nʼebe anyị nọ. A gbara anyị ume karịa site na ịhụ ọṅụ Taịtọs nʼihi nnabata unu nabatara, na otu unu si mee ka mmụọ ya zuru ike mgbe ọ bịakwutere unu.
14 Because if I boasted to him anything about you, I have not been put to shame; but as we have spoken to you all things in truth, so also our boasting to Titus has been [the] truth;
Nʼihi na tupu ọ hapụ anyị bịakwute unu, anyara m isi nʼihu ya banyere unu; ugbu a, obi dị m ụtọ nke ukwuu nʼihi na unu emeghị ka ihere mee m. Anyị ekwuola eziokwu nye unu. Ugbu a, ịnya isi m nʼebe Taịtọs nọ egosila na anyị bụ ndị eziokwu.
15 and his affections are more abundantly towards you, calling to mind the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.
Ugbu a, ịhụnanya o nwere nʼebe unu nọ na-aba ụba nke ukwuu, nʼihi ncheta ọ na-echeta otu unu niile si jiri ọṅụ gee ya ntị na otu unu si jiri ịtụ egwu na ahụ ịma jijiji nabata ya.
16 I rejoice that in everything I am confident as to you.
Nke a na-enyekwa m obi ụtọ nʼihi na enwere m ntụkwasị obi nʼebe unu nọ nʼime ihe niile.
