2 Corinthians 9
1 For as touching the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you:
Nísinsin yìí, nípa ti ìpín fún ni fún àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́, kò tún yẹ mọ́ fún mi láti kọ̀wé sí yin ju bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ.
2 for I know your readiness, of which I glory on your behalf to them of Macedonia, that Achaia hath been prepared for a year past; and your zeal hath stirred up very many of them.
Nítorí mo mọ ìtara láti ṣe ìrànlọ́wọ́ yín, èyí tí mo ti ṣògo fún àwọn ará Makedonia nítorí yín, pé, àwọn ara Akaia ti múra tan níwọ̀n ọdún kan tí ó kọjá ìtara yín sì ti rú ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ sókè.
3 But I have sent the brethren, that our glorying on your behalf may not be made void in this respect; that, even as I said, ye may be prepared:
Ṣùgbọ́n mo ti rán àwọn arákùnrin, kí ìṣògo wa nítorí yín má ṣe jásí asán ní ti ọ̀ràn yìí; pé gẹ́gẹ́ bí mó ti wí, kí ẹ̀yin lè múra tẹ́lẹ̀.
4 lest by any means, if there come with me any of Macedonia, and find you unprepared, we (that we say not, ye) should be put to shame in this confidence.
Kí ó má ba à jẹ́ pé, bí àwọn nínú ara Makedonia bá bá mi wá, tí wọ́n sì bá yín ní àìmúra sílẹ̀, ojú a sì tì wá kì í ṣe ẹ̀yin, ní ti ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé yìí.
5 I thought it necessary therefore to entreat the brethren, that they would go before unto you, and make up beforehand your aforepromised bounty, that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty, and not of extortion.
Nítorí náà ni mo ṣe rò pé ó yẹ láti gba àwọn arákùnrin níyànjú, kí wọn kọ́kọ́ tọ̀ yín wá, kí ẹ sì múra ẹ̀bùn yín, tí ẹ ti ṣe ìlérí tẹ́lẹ̀ sílẹ̀, kí ó lè ti wà ní lẹ́bi ẹ̀bùn gidi, kí ó má sì ṣe dàbí ohun ti a fi ìkùnsínú ṣe.
6 But this [I say], He that soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he that soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
Ṣùgbọ́n èyí ni mo wí pé, ẹni tí ó bá fúnrúgbìn kín ún, kín ún ni yóò ká; ẹni tí ó bá sì fúnrúgbìn púpọ̀, púpọ̀ ni yóò ká.
7 [Let] each man [do] according as he hath purposed in his heart; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
Kí olúkúlùkù ènìyàn ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti pinnu ní ọkàn rẹ̀; kì í ṣe àfi ìkùnsínú ṣe, tàbí ti àìgbọdọ̀ má ṣe; nítorí Ọlọ́run fẹ́ onínúdídùn ọlọ́rẹ.
8 And God is able to make all grace abound unto you; that ye, having always all sufficiency in everything, may abound unto every good work:
Ọlọ́run sì lè mú kí gbogbo oore-ọ̀fẹ́ máa bí sí i fún yín; kí ẹ̀yin tí ó ní ànító ohun gbogbo, nígbà gbogbo, lè máa pọ̀ sí i ní iṣẹ́ rere gbogbo.
9 as it is written, He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the poor; His righteousness abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ́ ọ pé: “Ó tí fọ́nká; ó ti fi fún àwọn tálákà, òdodo rẹ̀ dúró láéláé.” (aiōn g165)
10 And he that supplieth seed to the sower and bread for food, shall supply and multiply your seed for sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness:
Ǹjẹ́ ẹni tí ń fi irúgbìn fún afúnrúgbìn, àti àkàrà fún oúnjẹ, yóò fi irúgbìn fún un yín, yóò sì sọ ọ́ di púpọ̀, yóò sì mú èso òdodo yín bí sí i.
11 ye being enriched in everything unto all liberality, which worketh through us thanksgiving to God.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a ó sọ yín di ọlọ́rọ̀ nínú ohun gbogbo, fún ìlawọ́ yín gbogbo tí ń ṣiṣẹ́ ọpẹ́ sí Ọlọ́run nípa wa.
12 For the ministration of this service not only filleth up the measure of the wants of the saints, but aboundeth also through many thanksgivings unto God;
Nítorí iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ ìsìn yìí kò kún ìwọ̀n àìní àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́ nìkan, ṣùgbọ́n ó túbọ̀ pọ̀ sí i nípa ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọpẹ́ sí Ọlọ́run.
13 seeing that through the proving [of you] by this ministration they glorify God for the obedience of your confession unto the gospel of Christ, and for the liberality of [your] contribution unto them and unto all;
Nítorí ìdúró yin lábẹ́ ìdánwò iṣẹ́ ìsìn yìí, wọn yóò yin Ọlọ́run lógo fún ìgbọ́ràn yín ní gbígba ìyìnrere Kristi àti nípa ìlawọ́ ìdáwó yín fún wọn àti fún gbogbo ènìyàn.
14 while they themselves also, with supplication on your behalf, long after you by reason of the exceeding grace of God in you.
Àti nínú àdúrà fún un yín, ọkàn wọn ń ṣe àfẹ́rí yín nítorí ọ̀pọ̀ oore-ọ̀fẹ́ Ọlọ́run ti ń bẹ nínú yín.
15 Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift.
Ọpẹ́ ni fún Ọlọ́run nítorí aláìlèfẹnusọ ẹ̀bùn rẹ̀!
