2 Corinthians 1
1 To the church of God in Corinth, and to all Christ’s people throughout Greece, from Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus, by the will of God, and from Timothy, who is also a follower.
Kai Pawl, Cathut ngainae lahoi Jisuh Khrih e guncei lah kaawm e, hoi ka nawngha Timote ni Kawrin kho kaawm e Cathut e kawhmoun hoi Akhaia ram pueng dawk kaawm e tami kathoungnaw koe ca na patawn awh.
2 May God, our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and give you peace.
Maimae Pa Cathut koehoi Bawipa Jisuh Khrih koe e lungmanae hoi roumnae teh nangmouh koe awm lawiseh.
3 Blessed is the God and Father of Jesus Christ our Lord, the all-merciful Father, the God ever ready to console,
Maimae Bawipa Jisuh Khrih e Pa Cathut pahrennae hoi ka kawi e maimae na Pa, kabawmkung Bawi lah kaawm e Cathut teh yawhawinae awm lawiseh.
4 who consoles us in all our troubles, so that we may be able to console those who are in any trouble with the consolation that we ourselves receive from him.
Maimouh ni reithainae a phunphun khang awh navah, lung na pahawi awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh maimouh ni coe awh e lungpahawinae hoiyah reithainae aphunphun kakhangnaw hah lungpahawi thai nahane doeh.
5 It is true that we have our full share of the sufferings of the Christ, but through the Christ we have also our full share of consolation.
Hote Khrih ni a khang e reithainae teh moipap dawkvah, Khrih kecu dawk maimouh ni coe e lungpahawinae hai moipap van.
6 If we meet with trouble, it is for the sake of your consolation and salvation; and, if we find consolation, it is for the sake of the consolation that you will experience when you are called to endure the sufferings that we ourselves are enduring;
Maimouh ni reithai patang khang awh pawiteh nangmouh lungpahawinae hoi rungngangnae doeh. Kaimouh ni hawinae ka hmu awh e hai nangmouh ni hawinae na hmu awh nahane doeh. Hote hawinae teh kaimouh ni ka hmu e reithainae koe nangmouh ni lungdonae hoi khang thai nahan thaonae lah ao.
7 and our hope for you remains unshaken. We know that, as you are sharing our sufferings, you will also share our consolation.
Hatdawkvah nangmouh koe ka ngaihawinae a cak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh ni reithai khangnae na phukhai e patetlah ahawinae hai reirei na khangkhai awh, tie ka panue awh.
8 We want you, friends, to know that, in the troubles which befell us in Roman Asia, we were burdened altogether beyond our strength, so much so that we even despaired of life.
Hmaunawnghanaw, Asia ram vah kaimouh koe runae ka phat e hah, nangmouh panuek laipalah o sak han ka ngai hoeh. Kaimouh ni a rucatnae khang thai hoeh totouh ka kâhmo awh dawk hring hane patenghai ngaihawinae awmhoeh.
9 Indeed, we had the presentiment that we must die, so that we might rely, not on ourselves, but on God who raises the dead.
Kaimouh due han totouh lawk a tâtueng awh toe telah ka panue. Hatei telah bout onae teh kaimouh ni mahoima kâuepnae tho laipalah kadoutnaw kathâw sakkung, Cathut kângue nahane doeh.
10 And from so imminent a death God delivered us, and will deliver us again; for in him we have placed our hopes of future deliverance, while you, also, help us by your prayers.
Cathut ni hettelah e taki kaawm e duenae koehoi kaimouh na hlout sak. Hmalah hai bout na hlout sak han telah Bawipa dawk ka ngaihawi.
11 And then many lips will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us in answer to many prayers.
Nangmouh ni hai ratoumnae hoi kaimouh hah na kabawp teh, taminaw e ratoumnae dawk kaimouh ni ka hmu awh e poehnonaw khet navah, taminaw ni kaimae yueng lah lunghawinae lawk a dei awh han.
12 Indeed, our main ground for satisfaction is this – Our conscience tells us that our conduct in the world, and still more in our relations with you, was marked by a purity of motive and a sincerity that were inspired by God, and was based, not on worldly policy, but on the help of God.
Kaimouh ni kâoup kawi e teh talaivan lungangnae laipalah Cathut e lungmanae dawk Cathut koehoi ka tho e lungthin thoungnae hoi kahring awh e hah lawkpanuesaknae lung ni na panue sak.
13 We never write anything to you other than what you will acknowledge to the very end –
Kaimouh ni nangmouh koe ca ka thut awh navah, nangmouh ni na touk thai hane hoi na thai thai nahane hloilah alouke ka thut hoeh.
14 And, indeed, you have already partly acknowledged it about us – that you have a right to be proud of us, as we will be proud of you, on the day of our Lord Jesus.
Atuvah nangmouh ni kaimouh be na panuek awh hoeh ei, maimae Bawipa Jisuh e hnin nah kaimouh teh nangmouh hanlah kâoupnae lah na o awh e patetlah, nangmouh hai kaimouh hanelah, kâoupnae lah na o awh e hah na panue awh han telah ka ngaihawi.
15 With this conviction in my mind, I planned to come to see you first, so that your pleasure might be doubled –
Hettelah mangkhak katang dawkvah nangmouh teh hawinae bout na coe awh hanlah nangmouh koe ahmaloe ka tho han telah ka kâcai.
16 To visit you both on my way to Macedonia, and to come to you again on my return from Macedonia, and then to get you to send me on my way into Judea.
Nangmouh koe lah ka cei vaiteh Masidonia ram lah ka cei hnukkhu, haw hoi nangmouh koe ka tho vaiteh, Judah ram totouh nangmouh ni na thak a han telah ka pouknae ao.
17 As this was my plan, where, pray, did I show any fickleness of purpose? Or do you think that my plans are formed on mere impulse, so that in the same breath I say ‘Yes’ and ‘No’?
Hottelah ka kâcai e heh a vanlong lah ka pouk e maw. Hoe pawiteh talai ngainae dawkvah ka titeh, Oe teh Oe hoi, nahoeh teh nahoeh telah ka tet boi e na maw.
18 As God is true, the message that we brought you does not waver between ‘Yes’ and ‘No’!
Cathut teh yuemkamcu e patetlah nangmouh koe ka dei awh e lawk teh vai touh dawk, bokheiyah hoi, nahoeh telah nahoehmaw.
19 The Son of God, Christ Jesus, whom we – Silas, Timothy, and I – proclaimed among you, never wavered between ‘Yes’ and ‘No.’ With him it has always been ‘Yes.’
Kaimouh hoi Silvanas, Timote tinaw ni nangmouh koe ka dei awh e Cathut Capa Jisuh Khrih dawk vai touh hoi, Oe hoi Oe nahoeh telah awm laipalah Bawipa dawk, Oe telah doeh ao.
20 For, many as were the promises of God, in Christ is the ‘Yes’ that fulfills them. Therefore, through Christ again, let the ‘Amen’ rise, through us, to the glory of God.
Hote Bawipa dawk Cathut e a lawk kam e naw pueng teh maimouh kecu dawk a bawilennae a kamnue nahanlah, Oe telah ati, Amen telah ati.
21 God who brings us, with you, into close union with Christ, and who consecrated us,
Nangmouh hoi kaimouh teh Khrih thung na o sak teh satui kaawikung teh Cathut doeh.
22 also set his seal on us, and gave us his Spirit in our hearts as a pledge of future blessings.
Hote Cathut ni maimouh hah tacik na kin teh maimae lungthung vah lawkawm lah Kathoung Muitha na poe toe.
23 But, as my life will answer for it, I call God to witness that it was to spare you that I deferred my visit to Corinth.
Cathut teh kai kampangkhai e lah ao. Ama ni ka lungthin teh a panue. Kawrin kho lah cei hoeh nahan kho ka pouk teh nangmouh hane malam ka pouk dawk doeh.
24 I do not mean that we are to dictate to you with regard to your faith; on the contrary, we work with you for your true happiness; indeed, it is through your faith that you are standing firm.
Kaimouh ni nangmae na yuemnae dawk kâ ka tawn awh hoeh. Nangmouh ni lunghawi nahanlah nangmouh hoi cungtalah thaw ka tawk awh e doeh. Nangmouh teh yuemnae hoi na kangdue thai awh toe.
