2 Corinthians 1
1 PAUL a legate of Jesus the Messiah, by the good pleasure of God; and Timothy a brother; to the church of God that is at Corinth, and to all the saints that are in all Achaia.
Paoly, Apostolin’ i Kristy Jesosy noho ny sitrapon’ Andriamanitra, ary Timoty rahalahy, mamangy ny fiangonan’ Andriamanitra izay any Korinto mbamin’ ny olona masìna rehetra eran’ i Akaia:
2 Grace be with you, and peace, from God our Father, and from our Lord Jesus the Messiah.
ho aminareo anie ny fahasoavana sy ny fiadanana avy amin’ Andriamanitra Raintsika sy Jesosy Kristy Tompo.
3 Blessed be God, the Father of our Lord Jesus the Messiah, the Father of mercies, and the God of all consolation;
Isaorana anie Andriamanitra, Rain’ i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika, Rain’ ny famindram-po sady Andriamanitry ny fampiononana rehetra,
4 who comforteth us in all our afflictions, that we also might be able to comfort those who are in all afflictions, with the consolation wherewith we are comforted by God.
Izay mampionona anay amin’ ny fahorianay rehetra mba hahaizanay mampionona izay rehetra mitondra fahoriana kosa, anin’ ny fampiononana izay ampiononan’ Andriamanitra anay.
5 For, as the sufferings of the Messiah abound in us, so also our consolation aboundeth by the Messiah.
Fa araka ny haben’ ny fijalian’ i Kristy mihatra aminay no haben’ ny fampiononana anay kosa amin’ ny alalan’ i Kristy.
6 And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and for your life that we are afflicted; or whether we be comforted, it is, that ye may be comforted; and that there may be in you an eagerness, wherewith ye may endure those sufferings which we also suffer.
Ary raha ampahorina izahay, dia ho fampiononana sy famonjena anareo izany; ary raha ampiononina izahay, dia ho fampiononana anareo izany, ka miasa amin’ ny fiaretanareo fahoriana mitovy indrindra amin’ izay entinay.
7 And our hope concerning you is steadfast: for we know, that if ye partake of the sufferings, ye will also partake of the consolation.
Ary miorina tsara ny fanantenanay anareo, satria fantatray fa tahaka ny iombonanareo ny fahoriana no iombonanareo ny fampiononana koa.
8 But, my brethren, we wish you to know, respecting the affliction that was upon us in Asia, that we were afflicted exceedingly, beyond our strength, insomuch that our life was ready to terminate.
Fa tsy tianay tsy ho fantatrareo, ry rahalahy, ny amin’ ny fahoriana izay nanjo anay tany Asia, fa novesarana indrindra mihoatra noho ny zakanay izahay, ka dia efa nafoinay na dia ny ainay aza;
9 And we passed a sentence of death upon ourselves, that our confidence might not be in ourselves, but in God, who raiseth up the dead;
eny, tsy nanampo izay ho velona intsony izahay, mba tsy hitokianay amin’ ny tenanay, fa amin’ Andriamanitra, Izay manangana ny maty ihany.
10 who rescued us from imminent death: and we hope that he will again rescue us,
Ary Izy no nahafaka anay tamin’ izao fahafatesana lehibe izao, ary mbola hanafaka ihany; eny, Izy no antenainay fa mbola hanafaka anay koa,
11 by the aid of your prayers in our behalf; so that his gift to us may be a favor done for the sake of many, and many may praise him on our account.
satria ianareo koa miara-miasa ho anay amin’ ny fivavahanareo mba hisaoran’ ny maro ny aminay noho ny fahasoavana azonay tamin’ ny nataon’ ny maro.
12 For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and purity, and by the grace of God, and not in the wisdom of the flesh, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially towards you.
Fa izao no ataonay ho voninahitray: ny fieritreretanay no vavolombelona fa tamin’ ny fahamasinana sy ny fahadiovam-po avy amin’ Andriamanitra, tsy tamin’ ny fahendren’ ny nofo, fa tamin’ ny fahasoavan’ Andriamanitra, no nitondranay tena teo amin’ izao tontolo izao, mainka fa teo aminareo.
13 We write no other things unto you, than those which ye know and acknowledge. And I trust, ye will acknowledge them to the end:
Fa tsy manoratra teny hafa aminareo izahay, afa-tsy izay vakinareo na izay fantatrareo; ary manantena aho fa mbola ho fantatrareo ihany hatramin’ ny farany aza,
14 as ye have also partially acknowledged that we are your rejoicing, as ye also are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus the Messiah.
toy ny efa fantapantatrareo ihany fa voninahitrareo izahay, dia tahaka anareo kosa no voninahitray amin’ ny andron’ i Jesosy Tompontsika.
15 And in this confidence, I was before disposed to come to you, that ye might receive the grace doubly;
Ary tamin’ izao fahatokiana izao dia nikasa hankatỳ aminareo aloha aho (mba hahazoanareo soa fanindroany),
16 and to pass by you into Macedonia, and again to come to you from Macedonia, and so ye would accompany me to Judaea.
ary hankany Makedonia aho, raha avy atỳ aminareo, ary dia vao hiverina ho atỳ aminareo indray raha avy any Makedonia, ary mba haterinareo ho any Jodia.
17 When therefore I thus purposed, did I purpose as one inconsiderate? Or, were the things I purposed, things of the flesh; so that there should be in them Yes, yes, and No, no?
Koa raha nikasa izany aho, moa nanao kitoatoa va aho? Ary izay zavatra kasaiko, moa kasaiko araka ny nofo va, mba hanaovako eny eny foana, sy tsia tsia foana?
18 God is the witness, that our word to you was not Yes and No.
Fa raha mahatoky koa Andriamanitra, ny teninay taminareo dia tsy eny sy tsia;
19 For the Son of God, Jesus the Messiah, who was preached to you by us, namely, by me, by Sylvanus, and by Timotheus, was not Yes and No; but it was Yes in him.
fa ny Zanak’ Andriamanitra, dia Jesosy Kristy, Izay notorinay teo aminareo, dia izaho sy Silasy ary Timoty, dia tsy eny sy tsia, fa ao aminy dia eny ihany.
20 For all the promises of God in him, the Messiah, are Yes; for which cause, we through him give our Amen, to the glory of God.
Fa na firy na firy ny teny fikasan’ Andriamanitra, dia ao aminy ny eny, ary amin’ ny alalany koa ny Amena, ho voninahitr’ Andriamanitra amin’ ny ataonay.
21 Now it is God who establisheth us, with you, in the Messiah, and hath anointed us,
Fa Izay mampitoetra anay mbaminareo ao amin’ i Kristy sady nanosotra antsika dia Andriamanitra,
22 and hath sealed us, and hath given the earnest of his Spirit in our hearts.
Izay nanisy tombo-kase antsika koa ka nanome ny Fanahy ho santatra ato am-pontsika.
23 Moreover, I call God for a witness on my soul, that it was in order to spare you, that I came not to Corinth.
Ary izaho miantso an’ Andriamanitra ho vavolombelona ny amin’ ny fanahiko, fa ny fialàko nenina aminareo ihany no tsy mbola nankanesako tatỳ Korinto.
24 Not that we are lords over your faith, but we are helpers of your joy; for it is by faith ye stand.
Kanefa tsy mihambo ho tompon’ ny finoanareo izahay, fa mpiara-miasa hampandroso ny fifalianareo, satria finoana no itoeranareo.
