2 Corinthians 11

1 [But now, because my opponents are saying that Christ sent them to you as his representatives and that he did not send me], please be patient with me, too, [while I say a] few things [that may sound as if] [IRO] [I am praising myself, like] a foolish person [would do. You have been] ([putting up with/tolerating]) [those who teach what is false; ] now then, (put up with/tolerate) me [too].

Hagi nagra neginagi naneke huzahuanki akoheta mani'neta antahiho.

2 I really do care about [what happens to] you, just as God cares about [what happens to you. Just like a father wants his daughter to be sexually pure when he presents her to the man she will marry] [MET], I [want you to belong] to Christ [alone and to no other]. I want to present you [to him] as people who remain faithful to him [only, and who have not believed the deceitful message of those who are teaching what is false].

Na'ankure Kraisinte knare hutma manisazegu hankave antahintahi nehue. Nagrama magoke vere, Kraisinte manisazema hu'noane. Vene omaseno agru hu'nea a'kna hu'nesage'na, tamagrira Kraisinte tamavrentesuegu nehue.

3 However, just like [Satan, when he] cunningly [appeared as a] snake, deceived Eve [and caused her to disobey the Lord God], I am concerned that [those teachers] will cause you to think wrongly so that you will no longer [be faithful to] Christ alone.

Hu'neanagi nagra kore'ma huana, krunage osifavemo Ivi revatga hu'neakna huno tamagrira, reramataga nehinketa fatgo huta, ruotge hu'neta Kraisi amage nevaza kana netreta tamagena humizanku nehue.

4 [I say that] because some people have come among you who are teaching [their own thoughts about] Jesus. They [are saying about him] things that are [entirely] different from what I taught you. [They are urging] you to receive a [powerful] spirit who [would come to live in you], but it is not the same [Spirit] that you received [from God when you believed in Christ]. They preach [what they call] a good message, and you accept [their message, even though it is not the same as the good message about Christ that you heard from me. And] you have gladly accepted them and their message!

Tagra Jisasi naneke nermasamunketma nentahitma, Ruotge Avamura e'nerita nanekema tamasamunana antahirami'naze. Hianagi tamagra atrazageno ru vahe'mo'za ne-eza, ru mago Jisasi nanekene, ru Avamumofo nanekea nermasamizageta, nentahita fru hutma ana nanekemofo amage nentaze.

5 I consider that [LIT] none of those [men, even though they think of themselves as being] [IRO] extra-special apostles, are in any way greater than I am.

Ana hankave aposol eri'zama e'neriza vahe'mokizmia, nagra zamagri zmagorga'a omani'noankiza, zamagra nagateore'naze.

6 [I admit that] I am not an eloquent speaker, but I do know [God’s message]. I have made that clear to you by everything [that I have done among you and by everything that I have taught you].

Hianagi nagranena naneke hu'zana rempi hu'na ontahi'noanagi, antahintahi zania me'ne. Hakare kampinti, eriama hu'nonketa makazana ke'naze.

7 [I refused to accept money] from you as pay for teaching you God’s message about Christ. (It is ridiculous for you to think that what I did was wrong!/Was that wrong?) [RHQ] [I know that by teaching you without pay], I made myself seem [IRO] unimportant to you. [But I did it] to honor you.

Nagrania anteneramina, tamagrama knare hanazegu mizama'a omne Anumzamofo Knare Musenke tamasamua zamo'a, kefoza hu'na kumi nehufi?

8 [Some people might say that it was as though] [IRO] I was robbing other congregations because I accepted money from them in order that I might work among you.

Nagra tamagri'ma tamaza hunakura musufa aseankna hu'na ru mono nagatetira musezazmia erina, tamagri eme tamaza hugeta, tamagra mizana ose amne e'nerize.

9 Furthermore, when I was [there] with you and had no [money to buy the things that I needed], I did not cause any [of you] ([to have difficulties by my depending on you/by asking you for money/support]), because our [(inc)] fellow believers who came from [here in] Macedonia [province] brought enough [money for me to buy everything] that I needed. So I have not caused you any difficulty at all [by asking you for money], and I never will [ask you for money] [EUP].

Hagi tamagrane mani'nena magozankuma atupahua knafina, magomofona kna ami'na nazahuo hu'na osu'noe. Masedoniati e'naza nerafu'za, atupama huazantamina namizage'na eriknare hu'noe. Nagrira naza hanazegura knazana noramuankina, henka'anena anazanke hu'na knazana ontamigahue.

10 [And] as [sure as you know that] everything that Christ says is true, [you can be sure that what] I say [to you now is true. Wherever I go] there in Achaia [province], [I do not let you believers pay me for doing God’s work among you]. And no one will be able to prevent me from boasting [about that].

Tamage huno Kraisi tamage nanekemo nagu'afi me'nesigena, nagri'ma naza osazazankura Akaia kumate Grisi kaziga huama nehanuge'za, tagano hu'za huonantegahaze.

11 No one should wrongly [RHQ] think that it is because I do not love you that [I do not take pay from you]. God knows [that you truly/really are very dear to me].

Na'a hige'na e'inahu naneke nehue? Tamagrikura nave'nosifi? A'o tamagrikura navenesie, Anumzamo'a antahi'ne.

12 There are [some men there among you] who would like to be able to say boastfully that they [work among you] just as I do. So, in order to make it impossible [IDM] [for them to say that], I have [refused to accept pay from you], and I will continue doing that.

Hianagi nagrama amama nehua navunavara hu'na nevanenke'za, zamagrama nagriku'ma mago'zanke hu'none nehu'za zamufga rama nehaza zana ahepasaru hanenkeno evuramigahie.

13 Those men are lying [when they say that they are] apostles. They work deceitfully. [Even though they say that they work for God, they are working only for themselves]. They try to make people think that Christ [sent them] as his apostles, [but they do not truly represent him].

E'inahu vahe'mo'za havige aposol vahe mani'ne'za, havige eri'za vahe mani'ne'za, amega zamufarera Kraisi aposol mani'none nehazanagi, zmagu'afina krunage aposol vahe mani'naze.

14 I am not surprised [that they act like that], because Satan himself causes people to think [that he has come] as a shining messenger [from God].

Na'ankure antri osiho, Sata'enena krunage huno masa ankero vahe kna hugahie.

15 So it should not surprise [you] if these men, who [really] serve [Satan, do good things in order] to make you think they [serve God]. Some day God will [punish them] according to what they deserve because of the [evil] things that they do.

E'ina hu'negu antri osiho. Sata eri'za vahe'mo'za krunaza hu'za fatgo eri'za vahekna hugahaze. Ana nona'a eri'zama e'neri'za avamente mizama'a, henka'a erigahaze.

16 I say again: I do not want any of you to think that my [boasting about myself] is like foolish [people] boast. But even if anyone [thinks that I am boasting about myself like a foolish person boasts, listen to] what I [have to say anyway, just like you listen to those false apostles]. They really [speak] foolishly! Listen to me while I also boast a little.

Hagi mago'ane neramasmue, mago'mo'e huno nagrikura neginagi nere huno antahintahia osino. Hianagi neginagi nere huta antahinenamisuta, osi'a nagranena navufga erisagahu nanekema hanuana, neginagi vahe'mofoma antahimia kna huta antahinamiho.

17 About the things that I am [going to tell you], boasting confidently [about myself, surely you know that they are not the kind of things] that the Lord [Jesus] would say. Instead, [I will speak] as a foolish [person would speak].

Nagra'agu'ma husagama nehu'na, neginagi vahe knama nehuana, Ramo'a huo huno osu'nea naneke nehue.

18 Because many among you are boasting [about their own work], as unbelievers do, I will also boast [about myself and my work] [MTY, IRO].

Hakare vahe'mo'za zamagra zamavufaga, ama mopafi vahe'mo'za hazaza hu'za erisaga nehagu, nagranena anahukna hu'na navufga erisaga hugahue.

19 [I am sure that you, who think that you are so wise, will accept what I say] because you gladly [accept the] false teachers and the foolish things [that they say].

Tamagra neginagi vahe'mokizmia knare huta antahinezamize, na'ankure tamagra knare antahintahine vahe mani'naze.

20 When people [treat] you as if they were your bosses, you gladly submit [to them. You think that it is all right when others] force you to provide for their needs. You think that it is all right [when people] take control over you, when they boast about themselves, [or when they insult you by] slapping you in the face.

Tamage, tamagra zamatrazage'za vahe'mo'za tamazeri kazokzo eri'za vahe kna huneramante'za, reramatga nehu'za, tamagripinti'ma musufa e'neri'za, zamagra zamufga erisga nehu'za tamavugosafi neramahazageta kea nosaze.

21 I agree that I was not bold enough to treat you in such ways. [Ha! Do you think that] [IRO] I should feel ashamed [because I did not do that?] So now, talking like a person who does not have any sense, I will boldly tell you [some things about myself, just like those false apostles tell you things about themselves].

Nasunku huanki tagrira hanavetia omaneneankita e'ima hazazana osugahune! Hianagi mago vahe'mo'ma agra'a avufgama erisaga hinkena, nagranena anazanke hu'na navufga erisaga hugahue.

22 Do [they tell you] that they are Hebrews [and can speak the Hebrew language?] Well, I can say the same thing [about myself]. Do they [tell you that they] belong [to God’s people], the nation of Israel? Well, I can say the same thing [about myself]. [Do they tell you that] they are descendants of [our great] ancestor Abraham? Well, he is my ancestor, too.

Ana vahera Hibru vahepi? Nagranena Hibru nere. Zamagra Israeli vahepi? Nagranena Israeli nere. Zamagra Abrahamu nagapinti efore hunazafi? Nagranena Abrahamu nagapinti efore hu'noe.

23 [Do they tell you how much] work they have done for Christ? Now I am talking like a crazy person talks [EUP]. Well, I work for Christ much more [than they do. I have been] in prison many more times [than they have. Many times I] have been beaten {[people] have beaten me} very severely [because I believe in and obey Christ]. Many times I almost died [because of serving Christ].

Zamagra Kraisi eriza vahepi? Ama nanekema hanuana neginagi vahe'mo'za nehazankna nehue. Nagra zamagterena tusiza hu'na Anumzamofo eri'za e'nerina, zamagterena kina nompina rama'a zupa manina, rama'a zupa kanonutira nahetere hazage'na frikante vu'noe.

24 On five occasions Jewish [religious leaders] beat me 39 times with a whip.

Hagi 5'a zupa, Jiu kva vahe'mo'za kefo vahe hampriza nezmahaza kna huza 39ni'a zupa sefu knonkeve namiza navufga rutraga hutere hu'naze.

25 On three occasions I was beaten {[Roman] officials beat me} with wooden sticks. On one occasion [a large crowd of people] threw stones at me [to kill me]. On three occasions the ship [that I was traveling on] was wrecked [and sank. On one of those occasions] I was [floating] in the water a night and a day [before I was rescued].

Hagi 3'a zupa kumpa knonuti knonkevea nami'naze. Hanki magoke zupa have knonu nahenaze. 3'a zupa ventefi nevugeno haviza huno hageri tamigena, tina nakrikatetena, mago zageferuki, mago haninki huna hageri amunompi mani'noe.

26 As I have often traveled to other places, [I have often risked losing my life. For example], sometimes I have been in danger [crossing] rivers. [I have been] in danger [traveling in places] where there were bandits. [At times I have been in] danger among people of my own nation, [the Jews], and [at other times I been in] danger among those who are not Jews. [I have been] in danger in cities, and I have been in dangerous situations in barren areas. I have been in dangerous situations [when I was traveling in ships]. [I have been in] danger among people who falsely [claim to be] fellow believers.

Hakare zupama vanoma hufina, rama'a hazenkefi ufrenoe, ti nehegefi tina marekanetogeno, kumzafa vahe'mo'za nahe'za nehazageno, nagrini'a naga'mo'zane, megi'a vahe'mo'za nahekate'naze. Rankumapima manige, ka'ma kokampina nevuge'za nazeri haviza hu'za nehazageno, hagerimpima fanane hu'za nehugeno, havige nerafu'zanena nazeri haviza hu'za hu'naze.

27 I have worked very hard [DOU] [to earn] ([a living/what I need]), and often I did not sleep. At times I was hungry and thirsty, and at times I did not have enough time to eat. Sometimes I was cold [because] I did not have enough clothes [to wear].

Amuho hu'na tusi'a eri'za e'neri'na, mago'a kenagera navura ovase'noe. Ne'zane tinena omanege'na nagazanku nehugeno, tinku'enena navesi'ne. Kukenani'a omanegeno zasimo'enena nazeri haviza hu'ne.

28 In addition to all that, I am constantly and deeply concerned about all the congregations [that I have helped to begin].

E'i ana knazama eri'nofinena, mago mago knafina mono kevugura, inankna hu'za nemanize hu'na tusi antahiantahi nehuazamo'a kna nami'ne.

29 [Every time that I hear about fellow believers] [RHQ] who are not strong [spiritually], I sympathize with them [and try to help them. Every time that I learn about a fellow believer] [RHQ] who causes [another believer] to do something wrong, that makes me very angry.

Mono vahe hanave'a omanegeno'a, nagrira hankaveni'a omane'ne? Mago'mo'ma kumipima ufregena, nagra narimpa kna hu'noe.

30 Because [it seems that] it is necessary for me to [continue] boasting [about myself], I will boast about things that [caused some people to think of me] as being weak.

Navufga erisaga hanuna, nagrima hankaveniama omane'nea zama naveri'ma nehiazanku navufga ra hugahue.

31 God, who is the Father of our [(inc)] Lord Jesus, and who is the one [whom we should] praise forever, knows that I am not lying [about this]. (aiōn g165)

Anumzana Rantimofo Jisasi Nefa antahinege'na tamage nehuankino, ra agia erivava hugahie. (aiōn g165)

32 [One time when I was] in Damascus [city], the governor whom King Aretas [had appointed] to rule [part of his area, told his soldiers] to guard [the gates of] the city so that they could seize me [if I tried to leave the city].

Damaskasi kumate'ma mani'noa knafina, Kini ne' Aretasi agorga'a mani'nea gavana ne'mo, rankumamofo kafantaminte mani'neno nazerinaku kava vahe huzamantegeza kava hu'naze.

33 But [my friends] helped me to escape [by] putting me in a large basket and lowering me [to the ground by a rope] through an opening in the [city] wall. [That was really humiliating]!
