2 Corinthians 8
1 Moreover, brothers, we make known to you the grace of God which has been given in the assemblies of Macedonia,
Kayatmi a maamoanyo, kakabsat, ti maipapan iti parabur ti Dios a naited kadagiti iglesia iti Macedonia.
2 how in a severe ordeal of affliction, the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded to the riches of their generosity.
Kabayatan ti nakaro a pannakapadas iti panagrigat, ti aglaplapusanan a rag-o ken ti napalalo a kinakuraypayda ket nangipaay ti dakkel a kinabaknang iti naparabur a panangited
3 For according to their power, I testify, yes and beyond their power, they gave of their own accord,
Ta paneknekak a nangitedda iti adu kas kabaelanda, ken nalablabes pay ngem iti kabaelanda. Ken iti bukodda a pagayatan
4 begging us with much entreaty to receive this grace and the fellowship in the service to the saints.
nga addaan iti nakaro a panagpakpakaasi ket kiniddawda kadakami ti gundaway a makibingay iti daytoy a ministerio kadagiti namati. Saan a napasamak daytoy a kas ninamnamami.
5 This was not as we had expected, but first they gave their own selves to the Lord, and to us through the will of God.
Ngem ketdi, intedda nga immuna dagiti bagbagida iti Apo. Kalpasanna, intedda dagiti bagbagida kadakami babaen iti pagayatan ti Dios.
6 So we urged Titus, that as he had made a beginning before, so he would also complete in you this grace.
Isu a ginuyugoymi ni Tito, a nangirugin iti daytoy nga aramid, a lippasenna daytoy nga aramid iti naparabur a panagited iti pasetyo.
7 But as you abound in everything—in faith, utterance, knowledge, all earnestness, and in your love to us—see that you also abound in this grace.
Ngem nabaknangkayo iti amin a banbanag - iti pammati, iti panagsao, iti pannakaamo, iti amin a kinapasnek, ken iti panagayatyo kadakami. Kasta met a siguraduenyo a nabungakayo iti daytoy a naparabur nga aramid.
8 I speak not by way of commandment, but as proving through the earnestness of others the sincerity also of your love.
Ibagak daytoy saan a kas maysa a bilin. Ngem ketdi, ibagak daytoy tapno padasek ti kinapudno ti ayatyo babaen iti panangidilig iti gagar dagiti dadduma a tattao.
9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might become rich.
Gapu ta ammoyo ti parabur ni Apotayo a Jesu-Cristo. Numan pay nabaknang isuna, para iti pagimbaganyo ket nagbalin isuna a napanglaw, tapno babaen iti kinakurapayna ket agbalinkayo koma a nabaknang.
10 I give advice in this: it is expedient for you who were the first to start a year ago, not only to do, but also to be willing.
Balakadankayo maipapan iti daytoy a banag tapno matulongannakayo. Iti napalabas a tawen, saanyo laeng a rinugian nga aramiden ti maysa a banag, ngem tinarigagayanyo nga aramiden daytoy.
11 But now complete the doing also, that as there was the readiness to be willing, so there may be the completion also out of your ability.
Ita, leppasenyo daytoy. Kas iti kaadda iti gagar ken tarigagay a mangaramid iti daytoy idi, lippasenyo met koma ngarud daytoy, iti amin a kabaelanyo.
12 For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according to what you have, not according to what you don’t have.
Ta no magagarankayo a mangaramid iti daytoy a banag, nasayaat ken nakaay-ayo daytoy a banag. Masapul a maibasar daytoy no ania ti adda iti maysa a tao, saan a no ania iti awan kenkuana.
13 For this is not that others may be eased and you distressed,
Ta daytoy nga aramid ket saan a tapno mapaglag-anan dagiti dadduma ken dakayo ket mapadagsenan. Ngem ketdi, adda koma iti panagpapada.
14 but for equality. Your abundance at this present time supplies their lack, that their abundance also may become a supply for your lack, that there may be equality.
Ti kinawadwadyo ita a tiempo ti mangipaay iti kasapulanda. Daytoy ket, tapno ti kinawadwadda met ti mangipaay iti kasapulanyo, tapno adda iti panagpapada.
15 As it is written, “He who gathered much had nothing left over, and he who gathered little had no lack.”
Daytoy ket kas iti naisurat: “Ti addaan ti ad-adu ket awan ti aniaman a nateddana, ken ti addaan iti bassit ket awan ti aniaman a nagkuranganna.”
16 But thanks be to God, who puts the same earnest care for you into the heart of Titus.
Ngem agyamanak iti Dios, ti nangikabil iti puso ni Tito iti isu met laeng a napasnek a panangipateg nga adda kaniak para kadakayo.
17 For he indeed accepted our exhortation, but being himself very earnest, he went out to you of his own accord.
Ta saanna laeng nga inawat ti kiddawmi, ngem kasta pay unay ti kinapasnekna maipapan iti daytoy. Immay isuna kadakayo iti bukodna a pagayatan.
18 We have sent together with him the brother whose praise in the Good News is known throughout all the assemblies.
Imbaonmi a kaduana ti kabsat a lalaki a madaydayaw kadagiti amin nga iglesia gapu iti trabahona iti panangiwarwaragawag iti ebanghelio.
19 Not only so, but he was also appointed by the assemblies to travel with us in this grace, which is served by us to the glory of the Lord himself, and to show our readiness.
Saan laeng a daytoy, ngem napili pay isuna dagiti iglesia a makipagdaliasat kadakami iti panangipatungpal iti daytoy nga aramid iti kinaparabur. Daytoy ket para iti pakaitan-okan ti Apo ken ti kinagagarmi a tumulong.
20 We are avoiding this, that any man should blame us concerning this abundance which is administered by us.
Likliklikanmi nga adda ti siasinoman nga agreklamo maipapan kadakami maipanggep iti daytoy a naparabur a panangited nga ar-aramidenmi.
21 Having regard for honorable things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.
Naannadkami a mangaramid iti nadayaw, saan laeng nga iti sangoanan ti Apo, ngem uray iti sangoanan dagiti tattao.
22 We have sent with them our brother whom we have many times proved earnest in many things, but now much more earnest, by reason of the great confidence which he has in you.
Mangibaon kami pay iti sabali a kabsat a lalaki a kadakuada. Masansan ti panangpadasmi kenkuana, ket naammoanmi ti kinaregtana para kadagiti adu nga ar-aramid. Ad-adda pay a napaspasnek isuna ita gapu iti dakkel a kinatalgedna kadakayo.
23 As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker for you. As for our brothers, they are the apostles of the assemblies, the glory of Christ.
No maipanggep kenni Tito, katakunaynay ken padak a trabahador isuna maipaay kadakayo. No maipapan met kadagiti kakabkabsattayo a lallaki, imbaon ida dagiti iglesia. Pakaitan-okan ida ni Cristo.
24 Therefore show the proof of your love to them before the assemblies, and of our boasting on your behalf.
Isu nga ipakitayo kadakuada ti ayatyo, ken ipakitayo kadagiti iglesia ti makagapu iti panagpaspasindayawmi maipapan kadakayo.
