2 Corinthians 10
1 Now I Paul myself beseech you, by the mildness and modesty of Christ, who in presence indeed am lowly among you, but being absent, am bold toward you.
Nga Paul, kwafe nu suwos ke nunak luk sifacna — nga, su kutu mwet uh fahk mu nga filpap ac tupwek ke pacl nga wi kowos, a nga kaskas upa ke nga muta loes liki kowos. Ke pusisel ac kulang lun Christ nga kwafe suwos
2 But I beseech you, that I may not be bold when I am present, with that confidence wherewith I am thought to be bold, against some, who reckon us as if we walked according to the flesh.
in tia oru tuh nga in kaskas upa ke pacl nga ac tuku; tuh nga etu na pwaye lah nga ku in kaskas upa nu selos su fahk mu kut orekma ke ouiya lun faclu.
3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.
Pwaye lah kut moul fin faclu, tusruktu kut tia mweun ke lumah lun faclu.
4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty to God unto the pulling down of fortifications, destroying counsels,
Kufwen mweun ma kut orekmakin in mweun lasr tia kufwen mweun lun faclu, a kufwen mwe mweun kulana lun God, ma kut orekmakin in kunausla pot ku lun mwet mweun. Kut kunausla kas in akukuin kikiap;
5 And every height that exhalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every understanding unto the obedience of Christ;
kut kunausla nunak fulat nukewa su kosrala mwet in etu ke God. Kut kutongya nunak nukewa lun mwet uh, ac oru elos in akos Christ.
6 And having in readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience shall be fulfilled.
Ac tukun kowos akpwayeye inse pwaye lowos, kut ac fah akola in kai kutena mwet su seakos.
7 See the things that are according to outward appearance. If any man trust to himself, that he is Christ’s, let him think this again with himself, that as he is Christ’s, so are we also.
Kowos liye na likin ma uh. Ya oasr sie mwet inmasrlowos su nunku mu el ma lun Christ? Lela elan sifacna tonel, mweyen kut ma lun Christ oapana el.
8 For if also I should boast somewhat more of our power, which the Lord hath given us unto edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed.
Tuh nga tia mwekin, nga finne konkin yokla ke ku se ma Leum El ase nu sesr — ku se inge ma in musaikowosyak, ac tia in kunauskowosla.
9 But that I may not be thought as it were to terrify you by epistles,
Nga tia lungse kowos in nunku mu nga srike in aksangengye kowos ke leta luk uh.
10 (For his epistles indeed, say they, are weighty and strong; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible, )
Oasr mwet ac fahk, “Leta lal Paul uh upa ac ku, tusruktu pacl el muta yorosr, el munas ac kas lal uh wangin sripa!”
11 Let such a one think this, that such as we are in word by epistles, when absent, such also we will be indeed when present.
Kain mwet se ingan enenu in kalem kac lah wangin ekla inmasrlon ma kut simus ke leta lasr ke pacl kut muta loesla, ac ma kut ac oru ke pacl kut oasr yuruwos.
12 For we dare not match, or compare ourselves with some, that commend themselves; but we measure ourselves by ourselves, and compare ourselves with ourselves.
Kut ac fah tiana lumwekut sifacna oana elos su oakalos mu elos mwet fulat. Elos arulana lalfon! Elos sifacna orala mwe srikasrak lalos ac sifacna srikalos nu kac, na elos nununkalos sifacna fal nu ke oakwuk lalos inge!
13 But we will not glory beyond our measure; but according to the measure of the rule, which God hath measured to us, a measure to reach even unto you.
A funu kut, konkin lasr fah tia alukela lupa fal; a ac fah fal na nu ke orekma se su God El oakiya nu sesr, su kowos oasr pac kac.
14 For we stretch not ourselves beyond our measure, as if we reached not unto you. For we are come as far as to you in the gospel of Christ.
Ac ke sripen kowos oasr ke orekma kunasr inge, kut tiana alukela ma fal ke kut tuh tuku nu yuruwos ac us Pweng Wo ke Christ.
15 Not glorying beyond measure in other men’s labours; but having hope of your increasing faith, to be magnified in you according to our rule abundantly;
Ke ma inge kut tia konkin ke orekma ma mwet saya orala, su alukela ma God El oaki nu sesr. A kut finsrak mu lulalfongi lowos fah kapak, ac orekma lasr yuruwos fah ku in yokelik, ac pacl nukewa in fal nu ke srikasrak ma God El oakiya.
16 Yea, unto those places that are beyond you, to preach the gospel, not to glory in another man’s rule, in those things that are made ready to our hand.
Na kut fah ku in fahkak Pweng Wo in kutu pac acn loesla liki kowos, ac tia enenu in konkin ke ma orekla tari sin kutu pac mwet in acn se ma God El sang elos in orekma we.
17 But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
A oana ke Ma Simusla uh fahk, “Kutena mwet su lungse konkin, lela elan konkin ke ma Leum El orala.”
18 For not he who commendeth himself, is approved, but he, whom God commendeth.
Tuh mwet se ma Leum El insewowo kac pa ac akfulatyeyuk, ac tia mwet se ma sifacna kaksakunul.
