2 Corinthians 11
1 I wish that you could put up with me in some foolishness. But you are indeed putting up with me!
Ani gowwummaa koo ishee xinnoo naa obsitu jedheen abdadha; duraanuu naa obsitaniirtu.
2 For I am jealous about you. I have a godly jealousy for you, since I promised you in marriage to one husband. I promised to present you as a pure virgin to Christ.
Ani hinaaffaa Waaqaatiin isiniif nan hinaafa. Ani akka durba tokkootti fuula isaa duratti isin dhiʼeessuuf dhirsa tokko jechuunis Kiristoosiif isin kaadhimeeraatii.
3 But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your thoughts might be led astray away from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ.
Garuu akkuma bofti haxxummaa isaatiin Hewaanin gowwoomse sana yaadni keessanis akkasuma dhugaa fi qulqullina ittiin Kiristoosiif of kennitan sana irraa ni dogoggorfama jedheen sodaadha.
4 For suppose that someone comes and proclaims another Jesus than the one we preached. Or suppose that you receive a different spirit than what you received. Or suppose that you receive a different gospel than the one you received. You put up with these things well enough!
Namni tokko gara keessan dhufee yoo Yesuus nu isinii lallabne malee Yesuus kan biraa isinii lallabe, yookaan Hafuura nu isinii lallabne malee hafuura kan biraa yoo fudhattan, yookaan wangeela nu isinii lallabne malee wangeela kan biraa yoo fudhattan ni obsitu.
5 For I think that I am not in the least inferior to those so-called super-apostles.
Ani, “Ergamoota hangafoota” sanaa gaditti of hin ilaalu.
6 But even if I am untrained in giving speeches, I am not untrained in knowledge. In every way and in all things we have made this known to you.
Ani dubbiitti leenjii hin qabu; garuu beekumsa qaba. Kanas karaa hundaan sirriitti isinii ibsineerra.
7 Did I sin by humbling myself so you might be exalted? For I freely preached the gospel of God to you.
Wangeela Waaqaa gatii malee isinitti lallabuudhaan akka isin ol ol jettaniif ani gad of qabuun koo cubbuu turee?
8 I robbed other churches by accepting support from them so that I could serve you.
Ani isin tajaajiluuf jedhee gargaarsa isaan irraa fudhachuudhaan waldoota kiristaanaa kaan saameera.
9 When I was with you and I was in need, I did not burden anyone. For my needs were met by the brothers who came from Macedonia. In everything I have kept myself from being a burden to you, and I will continue to do that.
Ani yeroon isin bira turee fi yeroo waa na barbaachisetti eenyutti illee baʼaa hin taane; obboloonni Maqedooniyaa irraa dhufan waan na barbaachisuun na gargaaraa turaniitii. Anis waanuma tokkoon illee akka baʼaa isinitti hin taaneef of eeggachaan ture; amma illee ittuma fufee ofin eeggadha.
10 As the truth of Christ is in me, this boasting of mine will not be silenced in the parts of Achaia.
Hamma dhugaan Kiristoos na keessa jirutti boonuu koo kana kutaalee biyya Akaayaa keessatti eenyu iyyuu na dhowwuu hin dandaʼu.
11 Why? Because I do not love you? God knows.
Maaliif? Ani waan isin hin jaallanneef moo? Isin jaallachuu koo Waaqni ni beeka!
12 And what I do I will keep doing, in order that I may take away the claim for criticizing me and the claim for which they want to boast—that they are found to be doing the same work that we are doing.
Warra waan ittiin boonaniin nuun qixxaachuuf jedhanii carraa barbaaddatan carraa dhowwachuuf ani waanan amma hojjedhu ittuma fufee nan hojjedha.
13 For such people are false apostles and deceitful workers. They disguise themselves as apostles of Christ.
Namoonni akkanaa ergamoota sobaa, hojjettoota nama gowwoomsan, warra ergamoota Kiristoos fakkaachuuf of geeddaranii dha.
14 And this is no surprise, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
Seexanni mataan isaa ergamaa ifaa fakkaachuuf waan of geeddaruuf kun nama hin dinqu.
15 It is no great surprise if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their fate will be what their deeds deserve.
Egaa tajaajiltoonni isaas yoo tajaajiltoota qajeelummaa fakkaachuuf of geeddaran kun waan nama dinqu miti. Dhumni isaaniis akkuma hojii isaanii taʼa.
16 I say again: Let no one think I am a fool. But if you do, receive me as a fool so I may boast a little.
Ani ammas irra deebiʼee nan dubbadha: Namni tokko iyyuu gowwaa na hin seʼin. Isin yoo gowwaa na seetan ani xinnoo akkan boonuuf akkuma gowwaa tokkootti na fudhadhaa.
17 What I am saying with this boastful confidence—I am not talking the way the Lord would—I am saying as a fool.
Ani of amanadhee boonuu kana keessatti akka gowwaa tokkoottin dubbadha malee akka Gooftaan dubbatutti hin dubbadhu.
18 Since many people boast according to the flesh, I will also boast.
Waan namoonni hedduun akkuma yaada fooniitti boonaniif, anis nan boona.
19 For you gladly put up with fools. You are wise yourselves!
Isin ogeeyyii waan taataniif gammachuudhaan gowwootaaf obsitu!
20 For you put up with someone if he enslaves you, if he consumes you, if he takes advantage of you, if he considers himself better than you, or if he slaps you in the face.
Yoo eenyu iyyuu isin garboomfate yookaan yoo isin irraa nyaate yookaan yoo faayidaa ofiitiif isinitti fayyadame yookaan yoo koore yookaan yoo isin kabale ni obsituutii.
21 I will say to our shame that we were too weak to do that. Yet if anyone boasts—I am speaking like a fool—I too will boast.
Akka nu waan akkasii irratti dadhaboo turre ani qaanaʼaa nan dubbadha. Ani akka gowwaa tokkoottin dubbadha; waan namni kam iyyuu ittiin of jajuu fi ija jabaatu sana anis ittiin of jajuuf ija nan jabaa dha.
22 Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they descendants of Abraham? So am I.
Isaan Ibrootaa? Anis akkasuma. Isaan Israaʼelootaa? Anis akkasuma. Isaan sanyii Abrahaamii? Anis akkasuma.
23 Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as though I were out of my mind.) I am more. I have been in even more hard work, in far more prisons, in beatings beyond measure, in facing many dangers of death.
Isaan tajaajiltoota Kiristoosii? Ani akka nama qalbii dabarseettin dubbadhaatii ani nan caala. Ani caalchisee baayʼee itti dadhabeera; caalchisee yeroo baayʼee hidhameera; caalchisee akka malee garafameera; ammumaa ammas duʼaaf saaxilameera.
24 From Jews I received five times the “forty lashes minus one.”
Harka Yihuudootaattis siʼa shan afurtama jechuu tokko hanquu garafameera.
25 Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I was shipwrecked. I have spent a night and a day on the open sea.
Siʼa sadii uleen dhaanameera; siʼa tokko dhagaadhaan tumameera; siʼa sadii dooniin na jalaa caccabeera; halkan tokkoo fi guyyaa tokko galaana keessa tureera;
26 I have been on frequent journeys, in danger from rivers, in danger from robbers, in danger from my own people, in danger from the Gentiles, in danger in the city, in danger in the wilderness, in danger at sea, in danger from false brothers.
ani utuun wal irraa hin kutin deemsa irra ture. Balaan lagaa, balaan saamtotaa, balaan saba kootii, balaan Namoota Ormaa, magaalaa keessatti balaan, gammoojjii keessatti balaan, galaana irratti balaan, obboloota sobaa irraas balaan na mudatee ture.
27 I have been at hard work and in hardship, in many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, often in fasting, in cold and nakedness.
Ani baayʼee hojjedhee bututeera; halkan baayʼee hirriba dhabeera; beelaʼeera; dheebodheera; yeroo baayʼee soomeera; dhaamodheera; daareeras.
28 Apart from everything else, there is the daily pressure on me of my anxiety for all the churches.
Kana hundumaa caalaa yaaddoo ani waldoota kiristaanaa hundumaaf qabutu guyyaa guyyaan natti ulfaata.
29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who has been caused to stumble, and I do not burn?
Eenyutu dadhabaa dha? Ani hin dadhabuu ree? Eenyutu hin gufanne? Ani aaree hin gubadhuu ree?
30 If I must boast, I will boast about what shows my weaknesses.
Ani yoon of jajuu qabaadhe waan dadhabbii koo mulʼisuun of nan jaja.
31 The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, the one who is praised forever, knows that I am not lying! (aiōn g165)
Waaqaa fi Abbaan Gooftaa Yesuus inni bara baraan eebbifamu sun akka ani hin sobne ni beeka. (aiōn g165)
32 At Damascus, the governor under King Aretas was guarding the city of Damascus to arrest me.
Damaasqoo keessatti namichi mooticha Areexaas jalatti bulchaa biyyaa ture na qabsiisuuf jedhee magaalaa namoota Damaasqoo eegsisaa ture.
33 But I was lowered in a basket through a window in the wall, and I escaped from his hands.
Ani garuu foddaa dallaa keessaan guuboodhaan gad buufamee harka isaa jalaa baʼe.
