2 Corinthians 6
1 As a worker with him I beseech you not to receive the grace of God in vain.
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí alábáṣiṣẹ́pọ̀ nínú Ọlọ́run, ǹjẹ́, àwa ń rọ̀ yín kí ẹ má ṣe gba oore-ọ̀fẹ́ Ọlọ́run lásán.
2 For he said. In an acceptable time have I heard thee, And in the day of salvation have I succored thee. Behold, now is the acceptable time! behold, now is the day of salvation!
Nítorí o wí pé, “Ní àkókò ìtẹ́wọ́gbà mi, èmi tí gbọ́ ohùn rẹ, àti ọjọ́ ìgbàlà, èmi sì ti ràn ọ́ lọ́wọ́.” Èmi wí fún ọ, nísinsin yìí ní àkókò ìtẹ́wọ́gbà, nísinsin yìí ni ọjọ́ ìgbàlà.
3 I am giving no one a cause of stumbling in order that my ministry may not be discredited;
Àwa kò sì gbé ohun ìkọ̀sẹ̀ kankan si ọ̀nà ẹnikẹ́ni, ki iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ wa má ṣe di ìsọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí.
4 but in every way I am striving to commend myself as God’s minister by stedfast endurance, by afflictions, by troubles, by distresses,
Ṣùgbọ́n dípò bẹ́ẹ̀, ni ọnà gbogbo, àwa ń fi ara wa hàn bí àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run nínú ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ sùúrù, nínú ìpọ́njú, nínú àìní, nínú wàhálà,
5 by floggings, by imprisonment; in riots, in labors, in sleepless watching, in hunger and thirst;
nípa nínà, nínú túbú, nínú ìrúkèrúdò, nínú iṣẹ́ àṣekára, nínú àìsàn, nínú ìgbààwẹ̀.
6 with purity, understanding, patience, and kindness; by the Holy Spirit, by love sincere,
Nínú ìwà mímọ́, nínú ìmọ̀, nínú ìpamọ́ra, nínú ìṣeun, nínú Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́, nínú ìfẹ́ àìṣẹ̀tàn.
7 by a true teaching and an energy divine; by the weapons of righteousness, for attack or for defense,
Nínú ọ̀rọ̀ òtítọ́, nínú agbára Ọlọ́run, nínú ìhámọ́ra òdodo ní apá ọ̀tún àti ní apá òsì.
8 amid honor or dishonor, amid evil report and good report; as a deceiver and yet true;
Nípa ọlá àti ẹ̀gàn, nípa ìyìn búburú àti ìyìnrere: bí ẹlẹ́tàn, ṣùgbọ́n a jásí olóòtítọ́,
9 as unknown and yet well known; as at death’s door, yet, strange to tell, I live on; as chastened, but not killed;
bí ẹni tí a kò mọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n a mọ̀ wá dájúdájú; bí ẹni tí ń kú lọ, ṣùgbọ́n a ṣì wà láààyè; bí ẹni tí a nà, ṣùgbọ́n a kò sì pa wá,
10 as grieved, but always glad; as poor, but making many rich; as having nothing, yet possessing everything.
bí ẹni tí ó kún fún ìbànújẹ́, ṣùgbọ́n àwa ń yọ̀ nígbà gbogbo; bí tálákà, ṣùgbọ́n àwa ń sọ ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ dí ọlọ́rọ̀; bí ẹni tí kò ní nǹkan, ṣùgbọ́n àwa ni ohun gbogbo.
11 O Corinthians, I am unsealing my lips to you; my heart is wide open to you.
Ẹ̀yin ará Kọrinti, a ti bá yín sọ òtítọ́ ọ̀rọ̀, a ṣí ọkàn wa páyà sí yín.
12 There is no narrowness in my love; but the narrowness is in your own.
Àwa kò fa ìfẹ́ wa sẹ́yìn fún yín, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin fa ìfẹ́ yín sẹ́yìn kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wa.
13 I pray you, therefore, in fair exchange (I speak as to my children), let your hearts also be wide open to me.
Ní sísán padà, ní ọ̀nà tí ó dára, èmi ń sọ bí ẹni pé fún àwọn ọmọdé, ẹ̀yin náà ẹ ṣí ọkàn yín páyà pẹ̀lú.
14 Be not unequally yoked with unbelievers; for what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? what communion has light with darkness?
Ẹ má ṣe fi àìdọ́gba dàpọ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn aláìgbàgbọ́, nítorí ìdàpọ̀ kín ni òdodo ní pẹ̀lú àìṣòdodo? Ìdàpọ̀ kín ni ìmọ́lẹ̀ sì ní pẹ̀lú òkùnkùn?
15 What concord has Christ with Belial? What portion has a believer with an unbeliever?
Ìrẹ́pọ̀ kín ni Kristi ní pẹ̀lú Beliali? Tàbí ìpín wó ni ẹni tí ó gbàgbọ́ ní pẹ̀lú aláìgbàgbọ́?
16 And what compact has God’s temple with idols? For we are a temple of the living God, as he has said. I will dwell among them, and walk about among them; I will be their God, and they will be my people.
Ìrẹ́pọ̀ kín ni tẹmpili Ọlọ́run ní pẹ̀lú òrìṣà? Nítorí ẹ̀yin ní tẹmpili Ọlọ́run alààyè; gẹ́gẹ́ bí Ọlọ́run ti wí pé: “Èmi á gbé inú wọn, èmi o sì máa rìn láàrín wọn, èmi ó sì jẹ́ Ọlọ́run wọn, wọn yóò sì jẹ́ ènìyàn mi.”
17 Therefore, Come out from among them and separate yourselves, saith the Lord, touch not what is unclean;
Nítorí náà, “Ẹ jáde kúrò láàrín wọn, kí ẹ sì yá ara yín si ọ̀tọ̀, ni Olúwa wí. Ki ẹ má ṣe fi ọwọ́ kan ohun àìmọ́; Èmi ó sì gbà yín.”
18 then I will receive you and will be to you a Father, and you shall be to me sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
Àti, “Èmi o sì jẹ́ Baba fún yín. Ẹ̀yin ó sì jẹ́ ọmọkùnrin mi àti ọmọbìnrin mi, ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.”
