2 Corinthians 9
1 It is indeed unnecessary for me to write to you concerning the service to the saints,
Ɛho nhia sɛ metwerɛ mo fa mmoa a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔboa Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ a wɔwɔ Yudea no ho.
2 for I know your readiness, of which I boast on your behalf to them of Macedonia, that Achaia has been prepared for a year past. Your zeal has stirred up very many of them.
Menim sɛ ɛyɛ mo pɛ sɛ moboa enti, mede mo ahoahoa me ho akyerɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ Makedonia no. Mekaa sɛ, “Anuanom a wɔwɔ Hela no siesiee wɔn ho sɛ wɔbɛboa afe a ɛtwaam no mu.” Mo ahokeka no akanyane wɔn mu fa kɛseɛ no.
3 But I have sent the brothers that our boasting on your behalf may not be in vain in this respect, that, just as I said, you may be prepared,
Afei, merema anuanom yi aba mo nkyɛn sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, hoa a yɛde mo hoahoa yɛn ho no nnyɛ nsɛnkeka kwa. Na, sɛdeɛ mekaeɛ no, mobɛsiesie mo ho aboa.
4 so that I won't by any means, if there come with me any of Macedonia and find you unprepared, we (to say nothing of you) should be disappointed in this confidence.
Sɛ anyɛ saa na sɛ nnipa no ne me firi Makedonia ba bɛhunu sɛ monsiesiee mo ho a, yɛn anim bɛgu ase. Mo nso mo anim bɛgu ase bi sɛ modii yɛn hwammɔ.
5 I thought it necessary therefore to entreat the brothers that they would go before to you, and arrange ahead of time the generous gift that you promised before, that the same might be ready as a matter of generosity, and not of greediness.
Enti, medwene ho hunuu sɛ, ɛyɛ sɛ anuanom bi di mʼanim ɛkan na wɔkɔpɛ akyɛdeɛ a mohyɛɛ me ho bɔ no gu hɔ. Ɛba saa a, ɛberɛ a mɛduru hɔ no na ɛwɔ hɔ na adi adanseɛ sɛ mo na momaeɛ ɛfiri sɛ, na mopɛ sɛ moma enti, na mmom, na ɛnyɛ sɛ ɛsɛ sɛ moma.
6 Remember this: he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly. He who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.
Monkae saa asɛm yi: Onipa a ɔgu aba kakra bi no, bɛtwa so kakraa bi, na deɛ ɔgu aba bebree no, bɛtwa so bebree.
7 Each person should give according as he has determined in his heart; not grudgingly, or under compulsion; for God loves a cheerful giver.
Mo mu biara mma sɛdeɛ wadwene ho no, a ɛnyɛ sɛ yea anaa ɔhyɛ mu, ɛfiri sɛ, Onyankopɔn pɛ obi a ɔde anigyeɛ ma akyɛdeɛ no asɛm.
8 And God is able to make all grace abound to you, that you, always having all sufficiency in everything, may abound to every good work.
Na Onyankopɔn bɛtumi ama wo aboro deɛ ɛho hia wo no so, enti daa na wowɔ deɛ ɛho hia wo, na wobɛnya bi nso adi dwuma foforɔ a ɛfata sɛ wodi.
9 As it is written, "He has scattered, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever." (aiōn g165)
Atwerɛsɛm no ka sɛ, “Ɔfiri nʼakoma mu ma ahiafoɔ deɛ wɔhia; nʼadɔeɛ no tena hɔ daa.” (aiōn g165)
10 Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food, will supply and multiply your seed for sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;
Na Onyankopɔn a ɔma ogufoɔ no aba ne burodo sɛ aduane die no bɛma wo nso aba a ɛhia wo nyinaa na wahwɛ so ama anyini na wʼadɔeɛ no enti, aso bebree.
11 you being enriched in everything to all liberality, which works through us thanksgiving to God.
Daa ɔbɛhwɛ ma woanya wo ho na woayɛ adɔeɛ, na ɛnam so ama dodoɔ no ara ada Onyankopɔn ase wɔ akyɛdeɛ a yɛnya firi mo nkyɛn no ho.
12 For this service of giving that you perform not only makes up for lack among the saints, but abounds also through many thanksgivings to God;
Saa adɔeɛ a moyɛ yi, monnyɛ mma Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ nko, na mmom, ɛnam so ma nnipa bebree da Onyankopɔn ase.
13 seeing that through the proof given by this service, they glorify God for the obedience of your confession to the Good News of Christ, and for the liberality of your contribution to them and to all;
Esiane dwuma a moadi de adi mo ho adanseɛ pa no enti, nnipa gyina nokorɛ a moadi wɔ Kristo asɛnka no ne mo adɔeɛ a moyɛ maa obiara no so bɛkamfo Onyankopɔn.
14 while they themselves also, with petition on your behalf, yearn for you by reason of the exceeding grace of God in you.
Enti, wɔde ɔdɔ bɛbɔ mpaeɛ ama mo, ɛfiri sɛ, Onyankopɔn ama mo adom a ɛboro so.
15 Thanks be to God for his inexpressible gift.
Yɛda Onyankopɔn ase wɔ nʼakyɛdeɛ a ɛnni kabea no ho.
