2 Corinthians 1

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus, through the will of God, and Timothy the brother, —unto the assembly of God which is in Corinth, together with all the saints who are in the whole of Achaia:

Khawsa kawngaihnaak amyihna Jesu Khrih a ceityih na ak awm Paul ingkaw ningnih a naa Timote ing, Korin khaw awhkaw ak awm thlangboel ingkaw, Akhaia qam khuiawh ak awm thlakciimkhqi boeih a venawh:

2 Favour unto you, and peace, from God [our] Father, and Lord Jesus Christ.

Ningmih a Pa Khawsa ven ingkaw Boei Jesu Khrih a ven awhkaw qeennaak ingkaw ngaihdingnaak awm seh.

3 Blessed, be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassions, and God of all encouragement,

Ningmih a Bawipa Jesu Khrih a Pa ingkaw ngaihdingnaak boeih a Pa Khawsa venawh thangleeknaak awm seh,

4 Who encourageth us in all our tribulation, to the end we may be able to encourage them who are in any tribulation—through means of the encouragement wherewith we, ourselves, are encouraged by God.

Khawsa venawh kawng ni huh ngaihdingnaak ingkaw kyinaak ak hukhqi ce ngaihdingnaak awi nik kqawn peeknaak thai aham, kyinaak boeih awh amah ing ngaihdingnaak ce ni pehy.

5 Because, even as the sufferings of the Christ overflow unto us, so, through the Christ, overfloweth, our encouragement also.

Khrih ak khuikha a huhnaak ce ningnih a hqingnaak awh ang lawng lawt amyihna, Khrih ak caming ngaihdingnaak awm lawng law lawt hy.

6 But, whether we are in tribulation, it is for your encouragement and salvation; whether we are encouraged, it is for your encouragement, which worketh inwardly by the endurance of the same sufferings which, we also, suffer; —

Kawseet ngaihkyinaak ham ingkaw hulnaak ahamni; kaimih ka mingngaih a ding awhtaw, nangmih naming ngaih a dingnaak aham ingkaw hulnaak ahamni; ce ing ce kaimih ing ka ming yh kyinaak ce yh thainaak ni pek khqi hy.

7 And so, our hope, is sure in your behalf, —knowing that, —as ye are sharers of the sufferings, so, also of the encouragement.

Nangmih aham kaimih ang ngaih-unaak ve cak hy, kaimih ak khuikhanaak nami ni qup pyi adawngawh, kaimih a ngaihdingnaak awm ni qup pyi lawt kawm uk ti.

8 For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, as to our tribulation which happened in Asia, —that, exceedingly, beyond power, were we weighed down, so that we despaired, even of life.

Koeinaakhqi, Asia qam awh kyinaak kami huh ce a sim kaana nami awm aham am ngaih unyng. Am kami yh thai dyna, khuikhanaak ce thihhlo dyna yh unyng.

9 But, we ourselves, within ourselves, have had the sentence of death, that we might not rest our confidence upon ourselves, but upon God, who raiseth the dead,

Kak kawk khuiawh taw thihnaak hu hawh kawng unyng, tinawh poek unyng. Cehlai ka mimah awh ang hang kaana, thlakthi ak thawhkung Khawsa awh ka ming hangnaak thai ahamni vemyihna a awm.

10 Who, out of so great a death, rescued us, and will rescue, —unto whom we have turned our hope, [that], even yet, he will rescue:

Anih ing cemyih thihpit dyna awmnaak awhkawng ni loet sak khqi hy, haiben awh awm ni loet sak hyn bai kaw. Anih ing ni loet sak khqi bai kaw, tinawh ngaih-unaak ce ak khanawh ta unyng,

11 Ye also labouring together on our behalf, by your supplication, that, unto many persons, being due the gift of favour, unto us, through means of many, might thanks be given in our behalf.

nangmih ing cykcahnaak ing ni bawm uhyk ti. Thlang khawzah ak cykcahnaak ce am qeennaak ak caming thung na a awm a dawngawh kaimih ang zyngna thlang khawzah ing zeelnaak awi kqawn kawm uh.

12 For, our boasting, is, this, —the witness of our conscience, that, in sanctity and sincerity of God, [and] not in fleshly wisdom, but in God’s favour, have we behaved ourselves in the world, —and more abundantly towards you.

Ve ve kaimih a zoeksangnaak na awm hy: ka mimah awhkaw ak che ak leek simnaak kawlung ing Khawsa ven awhkaw ciimcaihnaak, kawlung tang ing khawmdek awh, awipui na nangmih mi tuqunaak awh ak nep na khaw sa unyng tice ni sim sak hy. Khawmdek cyihnaak ing cemyihna bi am bi unyng saw Khawsa am qeennaak ak caming ni.

13 For, no other things, are we writing unto you, than what ye are either reading or even acknowledging, —I hope, moreover, that, throughout, ye will acknowledge,

Ikawtih nangmih ing am nami noet thai ingkaw am naming zaksim ce am qee law nyng.

14 According as ye have also acknowledged us, in part, —that, your theme of boasting, we are, even indeed as, ye, also [shall be], ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus.

Kaimih ve ak kek am tai awm nami ning zaksim hawh dawngawh, Bawipa Jesu a nyn awh nangmih awh ka zoeksang qu aham a awm amyihna, kaimih awh awm nangmih zoeksang qu kawm uk ti, tice ak soep cana zasim bit kawm uk ti tinawh ngaih-u unyng.

15 And, in this confidence, I purposed, before, to come unto you, —in order that, a second joy, ye might have, —

Ikawtih vawhkaw yp qunaak ka taak dawngawh, nangmih hih voei na nami hawihkhangnaak ham, lamma na nangmih a venawh law aham cai nyng.

16 And, by your means, to pass into Macedonia, and, again, from Macedonia, to come unto you, and, by you, be set forward unto Judea: —

Makedonia na ka ceh awh nangmih hqip pahoei aham cai nyng, cekcoengawh Makedonia awhkawng nangmih a venna law tlaih aham cai nyng, cawhkawng Judah dyna nangmih ing ni thak uh, ti nyng.

17 This, then, being my purpose, perhaps, after all, with lightness, I dealt [with the matter]? or, the things that I purpose, according to the flesh, I purpose, —that, with me, should be the Yea, yea, and the Nay, nay?

Vemyihna kang cai awh, a zanghoep cana nu kang cai? Kang hqi ing, “Oeih, oeih” am awhtaw “Am, am” ka tinaak ham khawmdek phung na nu kang cai?

18 Faithful, however, is God, in that, our discourse, which was [delivered] unto you, is not Yea and Nay;

Cehlai Khawsa taw a yp a awm dawngawh, kaimih ak awithang ve nangmih a venawh, “Oeih” ingkaw “Am” amni.

19 For, the Son of God, Christ Jesus—who, among you, through us, was proclaimed, —through me, and Silvanus, and Timothy, became not Yea and Nay, —but Yea, in him, hath it become;

Ikawtih Khawsa Capa, Jesu Khrih, nangmih a venawh kai, Sila ingkaw Timote mi ing kamik khypyi ce, “Am” ingkaw “Oeih” amni, Cehlai amah awhtaw a poepa na “Oeih” na awm hy.

20 For, how many soever be the promises of God, in him, is the Yea, —wherefore also, through him, [be] the Amen, unto God, for glory, through us.

Ikawtih Khawsa ing iqyt awi taaknaak sai mai seiawm, Khrih awh cemyihkhqi boeih ce “Oeih” na awm hy. Anih ak caming Khawsa thangleeknaak aham ningnih ing “Amen” ni ti uhy.

21 Now, he that confirmeth us, together with you, for Christ, and hath anointed us, is God:

Khawsa ing ni kaimih ingkaw nangmih ve Khrih awh ak cak na a ning dyih sak khqi. Anih ing situi ni syp khqi nawh,

22 Who also hath sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

amah a koena ni awmnaak tacik ce ni deng sih khqi nawh, Ciim Myihla ce nipek khqi hy.

23 But, I, call upon God, as a witness, against my own soul, —that, to spare you, not yet, have I come unto Corinth:

Nangmih hlyn aham ka ngaih awh ni Korin khaw na am kang hlat hy, tice anik sim pyikung na Khawsa ta nyng.

24 Not that we have lordship over your faith, but are, helpers, of your joy, for, by your faith, ye stand.

Nangmih ak cangnaak awh ak cak na naming dyih dawngawh, nangmih a zeelnaak ahamni nangmih mi bi ni bi haih uh hy.
