< 2 Corinthians 7 >

1 Having therefore these promises, beloved, let’s cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
Kanao an-tikañe o fampitamañe zao ry longo sarotse, le ehe miefera amy ze raha mahativa sandriñe naho troke, mañeneke fiavahañe am-pañeveñañe aman’ Añahare.
2 Open your hearts to us. We wronged no one. We corrupted no one. We took advantage of no one.
Ampihovao an troke zahay! fa tsy anaña’ iaia hakeo, tsy nimengohe’ay, tsy nikatramoe’ay.
3 I say this not to condemn you, for I have said before that you are in our hearts to die together and live together.
Tsy te hamàtse anahareo ty nanoako izay, ie fa nivolañeko taolo t’ie an-tro’ay ao, ke te hiharo hivetrake he hitrao-kaveloñe.
4 Great is my boldness of speech towards you. Great is my boasting on your behalf. I am filled with comfort. I overflow with joy in all our affliction.
Bey ty fatokisako anahareo naho jabajaba ty fisengeako. Toe enem-panintsiñan-draho, tsipike ty hafaleañe amo hene falovilovia’aio.
5 For even when we had come into Macedonia, our flesh had no relief, but we were afflicted on every side. Fightings were outside. Fear was inside.
Ie nipoke e Makedonia añe le tsy nahafitofa o sandri’aio, fa nitokoen-draha mb’etia mb’ eroa—fihotakotahañe ey naho fihakahakàñe ao.
6 Nevertheless, he who comforts the lowly, God, comforted us by the coming of Titus,
Fe, i Andrianañahare Mpañohò o voretrao, ro nañohò anay ami’ty fiavi’ i Titosy,
7 and not by his coming only, but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you while he told us of your longing, your mourning, and your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more.
toe tsy amy fiavi’ey avao, fa amy fañohòañe nañohoa’ areo azey, ie nitalily ty fisalalà’ areo, ty firoveta’ areo, naho ty zoton-tro’ areo ho ahy; ie nonjoneko an-drebeke.
8 For though I grieved you with my letter, I do not regret it, though I did regret it. For I see that my letter made you grieve, though just for a while.
Aa ndra t’ie nampioremeñako amy taratasiy, tsy aneñenako; (toe naneñeñe hey fe nitreako te tsy nimaremàretse ty nampilendèña’ i taratasiy.)
9 I now rejoice, not that you were grieved, but that you were grieved to repentance. For you were grieved in a godly way, that you might suffer loss by us in nothing.
Mirebeke henaneo, tsy t’ie nampioremeñe, fa te ninday anahareo hisoloho i fanaheloy. Toe nanao fanaheloan’ Añahare nahareo vaho tsy nijoie’ay.
10 For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, which brings no regret. But the sorrow of the world produces death.
Minday fisolohoañe tsy aneñenañe mb’an-drombake ty anahelo satrin’ Añahare; fe maha-vetrake ty fandalà’ ty voatse toy.
11 For behold, this same thing, that you were grieved in a godly way, what earnest care it worked in you. Yes, what defence, indignation, fear, longing, zeal, and vindication! In everything you demonstrated yourselves to be pure in the matter.
Oniño ty fahimbañañe nivokare o raha zao, o fiorèmeñan’ Añahare ama’ areoo, ty fiveroha’ areo, ty fitorifihañe, ty fihembañañe, ty fisalalàñe, ty zoton-tro vaho ty fipaiàn-to! Hene namente ty halio-tahi’ areo amy rahay.
12 So although I wrote to you, I wrote not for his cause that did the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered the wrong, but that your earnest care for us might be revealed in you in the sight of God.
Aa ndra t’ie nisokirako, tsy i nandilatsey ndra i nandilarañey, fa t’ie halange ama’ areo am-pivazohoan’ Añahare ty fiasia’ areo anay.
13 Therefore we have been comforted. In our comfort we rejoiced the more exceedingly for the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by you all.
Izay ty nampanintsiñe anay, le tsy vaho i fañohòañey fa nilosore’ay rebeke ty hafalea’ i Titosy amy nampibodaña’ areo i arofo’eiy.
14 For if in anything I have boasted to him on your behalf, I was not disappointed. But as we spoke all things to you in truth, so our glorying also which I made before Titus was found to be truth.
Aa ndra inoñe ty nandrengeako anahareo ama’e, tsy nahasalatse ahy. Fa an-katòn-drehake avao ty nitaroña’ay, le nizoen-ko mahity ty nirengea’ay amy Titosy.
15 His affection is more abundantly towards you, while he remembers all of your obedience, how with fear and trembling you received him.
Toe nionjoñe ty fiferenaiña’e anahareo te nahatiahy ty tsy fanjehara’ areo iaby, vaho t’ie nandrambe aze añ’eveñe naho an-titititike.
16 I rejoice that in everything I am confident concerning you.
Aa le irebehako te atokisako amy ze he’e nahareo.
