< 2 Corinthians 7 >

1 Loved ones, since we have these promises, let us cleanse ourselves of everything that makes us unclean in our body and spirit. Let us pursue holiness in the fear of God.
Palung ih ampuinawk, hae lokkamhaih a tawnh o pongah, taksa hoi poek ciim ai hmuennawk boih to ciimcai o sak si loe, Sithaw zithaih hoiah ciimcaihaih bangah akoep o si.
2 Make room for us! We have not wronged anyone. We have not harmed anyone or taken advantage of anyone.
Kaicae han poekhaih palung to paong oh; kaicae loe mi kawbaktih kami nuiah doeh sethaih ka sah o ai, mi kawbaktih doeh kam ro o sak ai, mi kawbaktih doeh ka ling o ai.
3 It is not to condemn you that I say this. For I have already said that you are in our hearts, for us to die together and to live together.
Nangcae lokcaek hanah hae lok hae ka thui ai: nangcae hoi nawnto hing moe, nawnto duek han khoek to kang palung o, tiah kang thuih o boeh.
4 I have great confidence in you, and I am proud of you. I am filled with comfort. I overflow with joy even in all our afflictions.
Nangcae nuiah paroeai amoekhaih ka tawnh, nangcae nuiah paroeai amoekhaih ka tawnh pongah, monghaih hoiah ka koi, congca raihaih ka tongh o naah doeh, paroeai anghoehaih ka tawnh.
5 When we came to Macedonia, our bodies had no rest. Instead, we were troubled in every way by conflicts on the outside and fears on the inside.
Macedonia prae ah kang zoh o naah, kaicae takpum anghakhaih om ai, ahmuen kruekah raihaih ka tong o; tasa bangah misa angtukhaih oh moe, palung thungah zithaih to oh.
6 But God, who comforts the discouraged, comforted us by the arrival of Titus.
Toe Titu angzohhaih rang hoiah, palungboeng kaminawk monghaih paekkung Sithaw mah monghaih to ang paek.
7 It was not only by his arrival that God comforted us. It was also by the comfort that Titus had received from you. He told us of your great affection, your sorrow, and your deep concern for me. So I rejoiced even more.
Titu angzoh pongah oephaih ka tawn o khue ai ah, anih na bomh o haih, kai hnuk han na koeh o haih, kai palung nang set o haih hoi kai nang mawn o haih loknawk to anih mah ang thuih pongah, anghoehaih ka tawnh aep.
8 Even though my letter made you sad, I do not regret it. But I did regret it when I saw that my letter made you sad. But you were sad just for a little while.
Ka capat mah nangcae palungsaesak doeh om tih, hmaloe ah loe dawnpakhuemhaih ka tawnh; toe vaihi loe dawnpakhuemhaih ka tawn ai boeh: nawnetta thung capat mah nangcae palung ang set o sak, tiah ka panoek.
9 Now I rejoice, not because you were distressed, but because your sadness brought you to repentance. You experienced a godly sorrow, so you suffered no loss because of us.
Palung kang set o sak pongah, anghoehaih ka tawnh tih haih ih na ai ni, toe dawnpakhuemhaih tawnh thai hanah palung na set o pongah ni kang hoe: ka sak o ih hmuen mah nangcae ih atho to zoksak han ai ah, Sithaw koehhaih baktiah ni palung kang set o sak.
10 For godly sorrow brings about repentance that accomplishes salvation without regret. Worldly sorrow, however, brings about death.
Sithaw bangah palungsethaih mah loe dawnpakhuem rumram ih na ai ah, amkhrai thai ai pahlonghaih omsak, tangtang dawnpakhuemhaih to tacawtsak; toe long bang ih palungsethaih mah loe duekhaih to oh sak.
11 See what great determination this godly sorrow produced in you. How great was the determination in you to prove you were innocent. How great was your indignation, your fear, your longing, your zeal, and your desire to see that justice should be done! In everything you have proved yourselves to be innocent in this matter.
Sithaw bang ih palungsethaih mah loe, kawbaktih nangcae zaehaih maw ohsak, ue, kawbaktih palungphuihaih maw ciimsak, ue, kawbaktih zithaih, ue, kawbaktih sak koehhaih, ue, kawbaktih tha pathokhaih, ue, kawbaktih lokcaekhaih maw ohsak, tito khen oh! Nangcae loe hae hmuennawk boih ah zaehaih na tawn o ai, tito amtueng boeh.
12 Although I wrote to you, I did not write for the sake of the wrongdoer, nor for the one who suffered the wrong, but so that your good will toward us should be made known to you in the sight of God.
To pongah, nangcae khaeah ca ka tarik naah, sakpazaehaih tawn kami hoi zaehaih sah kami to khet moe, tarik ih na ai ni, Sithaw hmaa ah nangcae kang khetzawnhaih amtueng thai han ih ni ka tarik.
13 It is by this that we are encouraged. In addition to our own comfort, we also rejoiced even more because of Titus' joy, because his spirit was refreshed by all of you.
To pongah nangcae monghaih rang hoiah kaicae doeh monghaih ka tawnh o toeng: ue, anih mawnhaih tawnh han ai ah tha na paek o pongah, Titu anghoehaih mah kaicae anghoehaih oh sak aep.
14 For if I boasted to him about you, I was not embarrassed. On the contrary, just as everything we said to you was true, our boasting about you to Titus proved to be true.
Anih khaeah nangcae amoekhaih lok ka thuih cadoeh, ka zat ai; hmuennawk boih ah loktang lok kang thuih o pongah, Titu khaeah ka thuih ih nangcae amoek haih lok doeh tangtang ni, tiah amtueng.
15 His affection for you is even greater, as he remembers the obedience of all of you, how you welcomed him with fear and trembling.
Anih to na talawk o moe, tasoehhaih hoi zithaih hoiah anih ih lok to na tahngaih pae o, tiah Titu mah panoek naah, nangcae nuiah a tawnh ih anih amlunghaih to sang aep aep.
16 I rejoice because I have complete confidence in you.
Hmuennawk boih ah nangcae nuiah oephaih ka tawnh pongah, anghoehaih hoiah ka oh boeh.
