< 2 Corinthians 9 >

1 Now [I want to write] more about the gift [of money] [EUP] that [you and other believers are preparing to send] to the believers [in Judea province]. I do not [really] need to [continue writing to you about it],
Keiman Jerusalema atahsan ho dinga thilpeh a lhacha natoh thudol'a kahin jih ding chu angaikhoh e tin kagelpoi.
2 because I already know that you really want to help them. In fact, I have been boasting [about you], telling the [believers here in] Macedonia [province] that [you people in] Achaia [province] have been ready to help, since last year. As a result, because you are very eager to help [the believers in Judea province], you have made most of [the believers here in Macedonia province also want] to give [a gift].
Ajehchu keiman nanghon nakithopinom ten'u ahiti kahei, chule nangho Greece gamkaiya um hohin kum khat masanga kithopina naneinom uva nahin thot kigot'u anahi thudol chu Macedonia houbung ho henga kithang attah a ana seilea kanahi tai. Atahbeh in, nanghoa thanopna um chun Macedonia a um atahsanho mitampin ahin pehpat nauva atilkhou uva panga nahiuve.
3 However, I am sending Titus and the other two believers in order that [they will be able to help you finish collecting the money. Then when I and others arrive later, the people with me will see for themselves that] the things that I have been boasting about you are true [LIT]. [I want] you [to have your gift] ready [for us(exc) to take to Jerusalem], just like I have been telling others that you were ready.
Hinlah keiman hiche sopite ho hi nakigot mongu ahi photchetna a amaho kaseipeh a kahinsol ahi, chule nasumu chu khopkhom sohkei hiding ahi. Keiman nangho kakisonpi nauva mo eikichan ding chu kanompoi.
4 When I come, if any of [the believers from] Macedonia come with me, [I do not want them to find that your gift is] [MTY, EUP] not ready. If that were [to happen], I would be very ashamed, and you yourselves would be even more ashamed.
Keima Macedonia a atahsan phabep ho chuto hung uving ting, nangho chungchang thu kaseijo uvin nakigot lou u chu hung mudoh khaleu, nangho nalungu lhailou ding, sei sei ngai talouva keiho kalungu lhai talou ding ahi.
5 So that is why I felt that it was necessary to urge these [three] believers to go [and visit] you before I [come. In that way, they would be able to help you finish] collecting the generous gift [EUP] that had been promised by you {you had said you would give}. [If you do that, not only will] the gift be ready [by the time that we arrive, but everyone will see that you have given because you really want to give, and] not because anyone has forced you to give.
Hitia chu keiman sopiho hi keima hung masanga hinsol masah a, na thilpeh dingu chu gotsa nakoiyuva ahina ding kati ahi. Hinla keiman hichu lunga nopna neiya thilpeh ahi ding kadeiyin, phunchel puma peh ahi ding kanompoi.
6 Do not forget this: “[A farmer] who sows only a few [seeds] will not gather/reap a large [harvest], but the one who sows a lot [of seeds] will gather/reap a large [harvest] [MET].” [Similarly, if you give just a little to help others, God will give you only a few blessings. But if you give willingly and cheerfully to help people, you will receive in return many blessings from God].
Hiche hi geldoh in loubol mi muchi lhomcha tua chun aga lhomcha alokhom ding ahi. Hinla hongphal tah a tua chun ahongphalna tobangma akilokhom ding ahi.
7 Each of you should decide how much you [(sg)] should give, [and then give that amount]. You [(sg)] should not [be thinking to yourself], “[I really] do not want to give this money.” [And you(sg) should] not give [just] because someone tells [you to give. Instead, you should give willingly and cheerfully], because God loves those who give cheerfully.
Nangma ho cheh in nalunggel uva ijat napeh dingu nakigel lhah u angaiye. Chule pehih beh un ahilouleh seihat vang'in pehih un. “Ajeh chu Pathen in lunglhaisela pe mi chu angailun ahi.”
8 Moreover, God can enable you to [give to others cheerfully. If you give that way], God will [in return] give you many good blessings. He will do that so that at all times you will always have everything that you need. Indeed, you will have even more [than you need. As a result, you will be able to do] many more good things [to help others].
Chule Pathen in na ngaichat jouseu hongphal tah a napeh dingu ahi. Chutengleh nanghon na ngaichat chan'u chu nanei dingu chule nanei letset uva aval'a midang nato thei dingu ahi.
9 [Those who give willingly and cheerfully will be rewarded like the man about whom] it is written {[about whom] (someone/the Psalmist) wrote} in the Scriptures, He generously [helps others], [he gives to those] who are poor. [God will remember] the good things that he did, [and reward him with] good things forever. (aiōn g165)
Pathen Thubun asei dung juiyin, “Amahon alungcham tah un chule hongphaltah in mi vaichate apeuve. Athilpha bol hou chu a imatih chan a kigeldoh jing ding ahi.” (aiōn g165)
10 [God always] gives seeds to farmers to plant, and also gives them food to eat. [So, similarly, God will] always make it possible for you to have enough money [MET], so that you will be able more and more to generously [help those who are needy].
Ajehchu Pathen hi loubol mi dinga muchi-chivo pea ahin chule neh ding changlhah pea ahi. Hitobangma chun, Aman nathil neisa hou hin punbe sah intin chule nasung uva konin hongphalna lentah sodoh theina tohga nahin sodoh peh nauvinte.
11 [God] will [give you] many blessings in many different ways as a result of your generously [helping others]. Furthermore, [the] generous [gift that you are getting ready for] us [(exc) to take to the believers in Judea province] will cause [many people] to thank God.
Ahi, imalam jousea ninglhingin umun natin, chutengleh nangho aphatseh in hongphal jing tauvin nate. Chule keihon nathilpeh u chu angaichaho koma kalhut tenguleh amahon Pathen athangvah dingu ahi.
12 [Also remember that] when you give money to [EUP] help God’s people, you not only give them what they need, but also, [because of that], [many people will] thank God very much [for you and for what you have done].
Hiche thilpeh lhacha natoh a kona thilpha ni hung sohdoh ding chu-Jerusalema atahsan hon angaichat u kimu uvintin, chule amahon kipah le thanom tah a Pathen thangvahna aphondoh dingu ahi.
13 As a result of your giving [money to help others], they will praise God, not only because you have believed the good message about Christ, but also because you have [generously given some of your possessions] so that they and other [believers will all have] ([enough/their needs supplied]).
Nangho lhacha natoh jal'a chu, amahon Pathen loupina apeh thei dingu ahi. Amaho chunga le atahsan ho jouse chunga nahongphal nau hin Christa Kipana Thupha thua nanung uve ti aphotchen ding ahi.
14 Also, when they pray for you, [asking God to bless you, they will remember how grateful they are] [IDM] that God [caused you to give] very willingly and cheerfully.
Chule Pathen in nangho henga lungsetna longletset napehtah jeh uva, lung giltah a gelkhohna neiya nangho dinga hungtao ding ahiuve.
15 [Finally, we should all] thank God [because he gave us the greatest gift of all when he sent his Son to save/rescue us(inc)] ([from the guilt of our sin/from being punished for our sin]). That is a gift too wonderful for anyone to be able to tell about completely!
Hiche athilpeh hi thu aseidoh dinga kidang behseh ahijeh hin Pathen thangvah in umhen!
