2 Corinthians 9

1 For concerning the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you.

Judia ni Rangte mina loong kaat thuk halang ah chosok suh ngah ih sen suh le raangkot ju amiidi bah lapaklak jih angta.

2 For I know your readiness of mind, of which I boast in behalf of you to the Macedonians, that Achaia was prepared a year ago; and your zeal stirred up the greater part of them.

Ngah ih jat ehang sen loong ah chosok suh eram elan, erah raangtaan ih Mesidonia mina loong suh sen suh khuupook lang ah noisok rumhang. Ngah ih liitang, “Akaia dowa hanpiite loong ah” “manrang dowa ih chosok esuh banban tong rumla.” Sen lakkot je thoidi neng loong ah ehanko ah lakkot laknoi thung.

3 But I sent the brethren, that our boasting of you should not prove unfounded in this respect; that, as I said, ye may be prepared;

Arah hanpiite loong ah amadi daapkaat eh halang, sen lakkot laknoi suh khuupookli ah thaangmuh jengkhaap naktoom ang ah. Enoothong, ngah ih liihang ah likhiik, sen loong ah lakkot laknoi suh banban bantong theng.

4 lest, should the Macedonians come with me, and find you unprepared, we (not to say ye) should be put to shame in respect to this confidence.

Enoothong, Mesidonia dowa mina loong ah nga damdoh mok roongra haadoh sen lakkot suh banban lamok angkan bah, seng tiimthan rakriijih ang ah—sen rakrek tiit ju lah angthang—sen su laalomli asuh ehan rakri theng ang ah.

5 I thought it necessary therefore to exhort the brethren to go before to you, and make up beforehand your bounty, which was already announced, that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty, and not of covetousness.

Erah thoidi hanpiite loong ah nga ngani bankaat thuksuh samthuntang, neng ih sen lakkot kakham tan ah toom ban khookham rum ah suh ah. Eno juuba ngah thok hangdoh ban khookham choi ang ah, eno lakkot laknoi suh enook elan ngeh ih noisok ah, sen ekot etheng ngeh ih lah angthang eh ah.

6 But this there is to say: He that soweth sparingly, shall reap also sparingly; and he that soweth bountifully, shall reap also bountifully.

Samthun etheng o mina ih hejih eneesah wen abah cham hemootsah ju ang ah; o ih ehan wen ah ehan ju choh ah.

7 Each one, as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity; for God loveth a cheerful giver.

Erah raangtaan ih, mamah ih kotsuh liitan, emamah ih kottheng, thetthun damdoh lakot theng nyia kot ejih angkatih ngeh ih lakottheng; tiimnge liidi Rangte ih o ih tenroon ih koha erate ah nook ha.

8 And God is able to make every blessing abound toward you, that ye, always having all sufficiency in everything, may abound to every good work;

Adoleh mootse kaatse raangtaan ih Rangte ih sen ih jamhan ah nang ih ju ehan jen kohan, saarookwet nyia saapoot rookwet sen raangtaan ih jeeruh toom eh ah ngeh ah.

9 as it is written: “He dispersed abroad, he gave to the poor; his righteousness remaineth for ever.” (aiōn g165)

Rangteele ni uh emah liiha, “Changthih noodek suh larat lapat ih koh adi; heh tenthet ah saarookwet raang ih tong ah. (aiōn g165)

10 Now, he that ministereth seed to the sower, and bread for food, will supply and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;

Eno Rangte, o ih chamwente suh raanjih kotte nyia phaksat esuh baanlo kotte warah ih larat lapat kot kano raanjih thoontang kohan, eno erah rapne ih seethuk ah.

11 while ye are enriched in everything to all liberality, which worketh out through us thanksgiving to God;

Jaarookwet naktoom ratpat ah ngeh ih sen changteng angthuk han, tiimnge liidi sen ih kohali ah neng suh toom kohi thoidoh warep ih Rangte suh saarookwet lakookmi toomli rum ah.

12 for the ministration of this service not only supplieth the wants of the saints, but also overfloweth through many thanksgivings to God;

Sen erah reeraang lan ah Rangte mina loong raangtaan luulu tah angka, enoothong Rangte suh ehanhan ih lakookmi li theng ih hoonla.

13 while by the proof afforded by this ministration they glorify God for your obedience to your profession in regard to the gospel of Christ, and for the liberality of your contribution in regard to them and in regard to all;

Eno erah pakna reeraang lan jun ih, nyia Kristo ruurangese tiit ah kap kanno adoleh amadi, neng suh kohan nyia wareprep suh chokoh han thoidoh warep ih Rangte rangka ah.

14 while with supplication for you they long after you on account of the exceeding grace of God to you.

Eno Rangte ih hedakdak minchan noisok kohanno neng loong ah ih rapne ih thun damdoh rangsoom kohan.

15 Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift.

Ranglakkot thaangmuh kot thoidoh loongtang ih Rangte suh lakookmi li ih!
