< 2 Corinthians 13 >
1 This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.
Nke a ga-eme ya ugboro atọ m na-abịa ileta unu. Ọ bụ site nʼama mmadụ abụọ maọbụ atọ gbara ka a ga-eme ka okwu niile guzoro.
2 I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them which heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare:
Mgbe m bịara leta unu nke ugboro abụọ, abaara m ndị niile dara iwu nʼoge gara aga na mmadụ ndị ọzọ mba, dọọkwa ha aka na ntị, ihu na ihu. Ugbu a m na-anọghị ya, ana m adọkwa ha aka na ntị ọzọ, ọ bụrụ na m bịa ọzọ hụ na ndị mehiere na mbụ echegharịghị, aga m emesi ha ike.
3 Since you seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.
Ebe unu chọrọ ka e gosi na Kraịst na-ekwu okwu nʼime m, ọ dịghị egosi adịghị ike mgbe ọ na-emeso unu omume, kama ọ na-eme ka ike ya pụta ìhè nʼebe unu nọ.
4 For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he lives by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.
Ọ bụ ezie na a kpọgidere ya na-adịghị ike, ma ugbu a, ọ na-adị ndụ site nʼike dị ukwuu nke Chineke. Anyị bụkwa ndị na-adịghị ike nʼime ya, ma ozi anyị na-ejere unu na mmekọrịta anyị na unu, anyị ga-eso ya dị ndụ site nʼike nke Chineke.
5 Examine yourselves, whether you be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know you not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except you be reprobates?
Ya mere, ka onye ọbụla nʼime unu nyochaa onwe ya, tulekwa omume ya, mara ma ọ ka kwudosiri ike nʼokwukwe ya. Ọ bụ na unu aghọtaghị na Jisọs Kraịst nọ nʼime unu? Ma ọ bụghị na unu enyochaala onwe unu hụ na unu emeghị nke ọma.
6 But I trust that you shall know that we are not reprobates.
Enwere m olileanya na unu niile ga-achọpụta na anyị adaghị ule ahụ.
7 Now I pray to God that you do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that you should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates.
Ma anyị na-arịọ Chineke ka unu ghara ime ihe ọjọọ ọbụla. Anyị anaghị eme nke a iji gosi na anyị kwesiri ekwesi, kama ka unu nwee ike mee ihe dị mma, nʼagbanyeghị na ọ ga-adị ka a ga-asị na anyị emeghị nke ọma nʼọrụ anyị.
8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
Nʼihi na anyị apụghị ime ihe ọbụla megide eziokwu, kama anyị na-eme ihe niile nʼihi eziokwu.
9 For we are glad, when we are weak, and you are strong: and this also we wish, even your perfection.
Anyị na-aṅụrị ọṅụ mgbe anyị na-adịghị ike ma hụ na unu dị ike. Ihe anyị na-arịọ Chineke bụ ka unu tozuo oke.
10 Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord has given me to edification, and not to destruction.
Ana m edere unu akwụkwọ a ugbu a, nʼihi na-achọghị m ịbara unu mba na inye unu ntaramahụhụ mgbe m bịara. Achọkwaghị m iji ikike ahụ Onyenwe anyị nyere m nye unu ntaramahụhụ, kama achọrọ m iji ya wulie unu elu dịka ụlọ.
11 Finally, brothers, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.
Nʼikpeazụ ụmụnna m, na-aṅụrịnụ ọṅụ. Gbalịanụ nʼimezi ndụ unu ka o zuo oke, na-agbarịta onwe ume, werenụ otu obi na-eme ihe, na-ebikwanụ nʼudo. Chineke nke udo na ịhụnanya ga-anọnyekwara unu.
12 Greet one another with an holy kiss.
Werenụ isurita ọnụ dị nsọ kelerịta onwe unu.
13 All the saints salute you.
Ndị nsọ niile na-ekelekwa unu.
14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.
Ka amara Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst na ịhụnanya Chineke, na mmekọ nke Mmụọ Nsọ dịnyere unu niile.
