2 Corinthians 12
1 To boast, really, is not profitable for me, for I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
Kâoup e heh kai hanlah meknae awmhoeh. Hateiteh, Bawipa ni vision na patue e heh bout ka dei ei nei.
2 I have known a man in Christ, fourteen years ago — whether in the body I have not known, whether out of the body I have not known, God hath known — such an one being caught away unto the third heaven;
Hnuk lae kum hlaipali touh nah, Khrih thung kaawm e tami buet touh teh, kalvan dot thum e dawk tawm lah ao e hah ka panue. Hatnavah ahni dawk tak hoi maw, tak laipa maw tie teh ka panuek hoeh.
3 and I have known such a man — whether in the body, whether out of the body, I have not known, God hath known, —
Cathut ni a panue. Ahni teh paradis totouh tawm lah ao teh, tami ni a dei kawi hoeh e lawk, a thaithai hoeh e lawk hah a thai e hah ka panue.
4 that he was caught away to the paradise, and heard unutterable sayings, that it is not possible for man to speak.
Hatnavah ahni dawk takthai hoi maw, a takthai hoi nahoehmaw tie teh ka panuek hoeh. Cathut ni a panue.
5 Of such an one I will boast, and of myself I will not boast, except in my infirmities,
Hot patet e tami hah ka kâoupkhai han. Hatei, kai dawk teh, ka thayounnae hloilah kâoupkhai hane awmhoeh.
6 for if I may wish to boast, I shall not be a fool, for truth I will say; but I forebear, lest any one in regard to me may think anything above what he doth see me, or doth hear anything of me;
Kai teh kâoup han ka ngai nakunghai, lawkkatang dueng dei hanlah ao dawkvah, ka pathu e nahoeh. Hatei, apipatet ni hai kai na hmu e hlak, kaie kamthang a thai e hlak, kai dawk na pouk payon awh hoeh nahanelah, kâoup laipalah ka o han.
7 and that by the exceeding greatness of the revelations I might not be exalted overmuch, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of the Adversary, that he might buffet me, that I might not be exalted overmuch.
Kai ni ka hmu e vision teh a lentoe poung dawkvah, ka kâoup hoeh nahanlah ka thung vah Setan e patoune lah kaawm e, ka tak dawk na ka ruk hanelah pâkhing hah na poe.
8 Concerning this thing thrice the Lord did I call upon, that it might depart from me,
Hote reithainae dawk hoi kahlout nahanelah Bawipa koe vai thum touh ka ratoum.
9 and He said to me, 'Sufficient for thee is My grace, for My power in infirmity is perfected;' most gladly, therefore, will I rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of the Christ may rest on me:
Hatei, Bawipa ni kaie lungmanae teh nang hanelah a khout. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kaie thaonae teh thayounnae dawkvah ouk a kuep sak telah a dei. Hatdawkvah, Khrih e bahu teh kai dawkvah pou ao thai nahanelah, kai teh ka thayounnae dawkvah lunghawi laihoi hoe ka kâoupkhai han.
10 wherefore I am well pleased in infirmities, in damages, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses — for Christ; for whenever I am infirm, then I am powerful;
Hatdawkvah Khrih kecu dawk ka khang e katha ohoehnae, dudamnae, rucatnae, ka pacekpahleknae, hoi het patet e khangnae hah ka ngai. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai ka tha ayoun nah bahu hoi na kawi sak.
11 I have become a fool — boasting; ye — ye did compel me; for I ought by you to have been commended, for in nothing was I behind the very chiefest apostles — even if I am nothing.
Kai teh tamipathu lah ka o toe. Nangmouh ni kai teh khak katek e lah na o sak awh. Atanglah kai teh nangmouh ni na oup awh hanlah ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai teh banglahai kaawm hoeh nakunghai gunceinaw hlak hoe ka rahnoum hoeh.
12 The signs, indeed, of the apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds,
Atangcalah kaie guncei lah ka onae mitnoutnaw teh, kângairunae hoi thaonae hah doeh.
13 for what is there in which ye were inferior to the rest of the assemblies, except that I myself was not a burden to you? forgive me this injustice!
Kai teh nangmouh hanelah hnokari lah ka o hoeh e hloilah, nangmouh koe alouke kawhmounnaw hlak hoe rahnoum nahane bangcahai ao maw. Hot patet e dawk teh na ngaithoum awh loe.
14 Lo, a third time I am ready to come unto you, and I will not be a burden to you, for I seek not yours, but you, for the children ought not for the parents to lay up, but the parents for the children,
Atu nangmouh koe, avai pâthumnae tho hane coungkacoe ka o. Hatei, nangmouh tarawk hanelah pouknae awmhoeh. Nangmae hnopai ka ngai e nahoeh. Namamouh doeh na ngai awh. Canaw ni manu na pa hanlah hnopai pâkhueng e na hoeh. Manu na pa ni doeh canaw hanlah pâkhueng e lah ao.
15 and I most gladly will spend and be entirely spent for your souls, even if, more abundantly loving you, less I am loved.
Kai ni nangmae lungthin muitha hanlah lunghawicalah hoi kama e hno hah ka hno teh kama e tak hai abuemlah ka hno han. Namamouh dawk kai ni lungpatawnae kampung pawiteh, nangmouh ni kai dawk lungpatawnae a kamyawt han maw.
16 And be it [so], I — I did not burden you, but being crafty, with guile I did take you;
Kai teh nangmouh hanlah hnokari lah kaawm ei nakunghai, arulahoi nangmouh koehoi a dâw toe na tet awh pawiteh,
17 any one of those whom I have sent unto you — by him did I take advantage of you?
arulahoi nangmouh koe tami ka patoun e naw koehoi nangmae hno hah ouk ka la boimaw.
18 I entreated Titus, and did send with [him] the brother; did Titus take advantage of you? in the same spirit did we not walk? — did we not in the same steps?
Kai ni Titu hah nangmouh koe a tho hanelah ka hroecoe nah, ahni hoi cungtalah alouke hmaunawngha buet touh ka patoun. Titu ni nangmouh koe dumyennae lahoi nangmae hno a la maw. Kaimouh teh lungkânging lahoi thaw ka tawk awh hoeh maw. Lam buet touh dawk ka dawn awh hoeh maw.
19 Again, think ye that to you we are making defence? before God in Christ do we speak; and the all things, beloved, [are] for your up-building,
Kaimanaw ni nangmouh hmalah mahoima yon hlout nahanlah lawk a dei awh telah na pouk awh na maw. Kaimouh teh Khrih thung hoi Cathut hmalah doeh lawk ka dei awh. Pahren e ka huikonaw, ka tawk e hnonaw heh nangmouh roung nahane doeh.
20 for I fear lest, having come, not such as I wish I may find you, and I — I may be found by you such as ye do not wish, lest there be strifes, envyings, wraths, revelries, evil-speakings, whisperings, puffings up, insurrections,
Ka tho torei teh, nangmouh heh kai ni hmungaihoehenaw, kai hai nangmouh ni na hmungaihoehe lah o han tie hoi, nangmouh dawk kâyuenae, kâtânae, lungkhueknae, kâounnae, kaya saknae, tamcuek lawk deinae, kâoup kâpawinae, buet touh hoi buet touh kâtoenae lah o han tie hoi,
21 lest again having come, my God may humble me in regard to you, and I may bewail many of those having sinned before, and not having reformed concerning the uncleanness, and whoredom, and lasciviousness, that they did practise.
yampa vah yon awh teh kamhnawngnae, kamsoumhoehe napui tongpa yonnae, hounlounnae sakpayon teh, sahnin ditouh pankângai hoeh naw kecu dawk cingou awh teh, nangmouh hmalah Cathut ni kai hah na ka rahnoum sak han tie hah tâsuenae ao.
