< Korintotɔwo 2 1 >

1 Nye, Paulo, ame si Mawu ŋutɔ tia be manye Yesu Kristo ƒe dɔla kple nɔvinye, xɔsetɔ Timoteo gbɔe agbalẽ sia tso, Na Mawu ƒe hame si le Korinto kple ame kɔkɔe siwo katã le Akaya:
Paul, an apostle of Yahushua the Messiah by the will of YHWH, and Timothy our brother, unto the assembly of YHWH which is at Corinth, with all the saints which are in all Achaia:
2 Amenuveve kple ŋutifafa si tso Mawu, mía Fofo kple Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo gbɔ la nanɔ anyi kpli mi.
Favour be to you and peace from YHWH our Father, and from the Master Yahushua the Messiah.
3 Woakafu Mawu, ame si nye míaƒe Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo Fofo, nublanuikpɔkpɔ Fofo kple akɔfafa katã ƒe Mawu la,
Blessed be YHWH, even the Father of our Master Yahushua the Messiah, the Father of mercies, and the Elohim of all comfort;
4 ame si fa akɔ na mí le míaƒe xaxawo katã me, ale be míawo hã míate ŋu afa akɔ na ame siwo le xaxa me kple akɔfafa si míawo ŋutɔ míexɔ tso Mawu gbɔ.
Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of Elohim.
5 Abe ale si Kristo ƒe fukpekpewo gena ɖe míaƒe agbe mee ene la, nenema ke to Kristo me míaƒe akɔfafa hã gbã goe.
For as the sufferings of the Messiah abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by the Messiah.
6 Ne míexaxa la, miawo ƒe akɔfafa kple ɖeɖe tae; ke ne wofa akɔ na mí la, miawo ƒe akɔfafa tae. Esia dea dzigbɔgbɔ blewuu mia me be miawo hã mietea ŋu kpea fu siwo miekpena.
And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.
7 Míaƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ na mi li ke goŋgoŋgoŋ, elabena míenya be abe ale si miekpɔ gome le míaƒe fukpekpewo me ene la, nenema ke miakpɔ gome le míaƒe akɔfafa hã me.
And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.
8 Nɔvi lɔlɔ̃tɔwo, mebu be ele be magblɔ fu siwo míekpe le Asia la na mi. Woƒo mí, eye wowɔ fu mí ale gbegbe be míawo ŋutɔ gɔ̃ hã míebu mɔkpɔkpɔ ɖe sia ɖe be míatsi agbe.
For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life:
9 Míebu be míedze na ku elabena míekpɔ be wɔna aɖeke meganɔ mía ŋu o, gake míetsɔ nu sia nu gblẽ ɖe Mawu si tea ŋu wɔa nu sia nu, eye wòfɔa ame kukuwo gɔ̃ hã tso yɔdo me la ƒe asi me.
But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in YHWH which raiseth the dead:
10 Vavã, Mawu ɖe mí tso ku dziŋɔ aɖe me, ale míetsɔ míaƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ da ɖe edzi be aɖe mí tso fukpekpe ɖe sia ɖe me ɖaa.
Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us;
11 Eya ta mi katã miwɔ ɖeka ne miado gbe ɖa ɖe mía ta vevie. Zi ale si miedo gbe ɖa eye mieɖe kuku ɖe mía ta la, zi nenema ke miagada akpe na Aƒetɔ la ɖe eƒe amenuveve si na be míenɔ dedie la ta.
Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.
12 Ke míawo hã, adegbe si míaƒe dzitsinya nana míeƒona lae nye be míeléa mía ɖokuiwo nyuie le xexe sia me, eye le mia dome hã la, míewɔ mía ɖokuiwo dzadzɛe, eye míetoa nyateƒe le nu sia nu me. Ke menye míawo ŋutɔ ƒe ŋusẽ mee míewɔ esiawo le o, ke boŋ wo katã tso Mawu ƒe amenuveve me.
For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and purity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the favour of YHWH, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.
13 Elabena míeŋlɔ nya bubu aɖeke na mi, si miate ŋu axlẽ alo ase egɔme o. Mele mɔ kpɔm be,
For we write none other things unto you, than what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end;
14 abe ale si miese míaƒe nya gɔme afã kple afãe ene la, miava se egɔme blibo ale be miate ŋu aƒo adegbe le mía ŋu abe ale si míaƒoe le mia ŋu le Aƒetɔ Yesu ƒe ŋkeke la dzi ene.
As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also are ours in the day of the Master Yahushua.
15 Esi meka ɖe miaƒe nugɔmesese dzi tae medi be mava mia gbɔ gbã le nye mɔzɔzɔ me, ale be miagaxɔ yayra ɖe yayra dzi.
And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye might have a second benefit;
16 Tso mia gbɔ la, mayi Makedonia eye ne metrɔ tso Makedonia la, magava to mia gbɔ ale miado mɔm ne medzo yina Yudea.
And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.
17 Ɖewohĩ mianɔ biabiam be ɖe metrɔ ɖoɖo si mewɔ gbã la alo ɖe mele nu wɔm abe xexea me tɔ siwo menya Kristo o, ne nya la nye “ɛ̃” la, wogblɔna be, “ao” ene mahã?
When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea yea, and nay nay?
18 Gbeɖe, mele eme nenema o. Abe ale si Mawu nye nyateƒetɔ ene la, nyemenye ame ma ƒomevi o. Nye “ɛ̃” nye “ɛ̃.”
But as YHWH is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay.
19 Elabena Mawu ƒe Vi, Yesu Kristo, ame si ŋu nye Paulo, Silvano kple Timoteo míeɖe gbeƒã le na mi la, menye ame si ne nya la nye “ɛ̃” la, wògblɔ be, “ao” o. Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo wɔna ɖe nu sia nu si wògblɔ la ko dzi.
For the Son of YHWH, Yahushua the Messiah, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea.
20 Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo kpɔna hã be Mawu ƒe ŋugbedodo ɖe sia ɖe va eme pɛpɛpɛ. Ne ŋugbedodoawo wu akpe nanewo hã la, wovaa eme, eye miegblɔa “Amen” to Kristo dzi hena Mawu ƒe kafukafu.
For all the promises of YHWH in him are yea, and in him amein, unto the glory of YHWH by us.
21 Medi be wòanɔ susu me na mi be Mawue wɔ mí kple miawo hã bena míezu kristotɔ vavãwo eye wòtia mí abe eƒe apostolowo ene be míaɖe gbeƒã nyanyui la.
Now he which stablisheth us with you in the Messiah, and hath anointed us, is YHWH;
22 Eya ame si de dzesi mí abe viawo ene eye wòtsɔ Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la de míaƒe dziwo me abe kpeɖodzi be míenye etɔwo vavã la ene.
Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
23 Azɔ la, meyɔ Mawu tso nye dzi me ke abe ɖasefo ene be nu si gblɔm mele na mi la nye nyateƒe tututu; susu si ta nyemetrɔ va Korinto haɖe o lae nye be nyemedi be mava ka mo na mi, eye mawɔe be miaxa nu o.
Moreover I call YHWH for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth.
24 Menye ɖe míegale amegã ɖum ɖe mia dzi hele se dem na mi tso nu si ke miaxɔ ase la ŋuti o, elabena mienya nu si dze be miaxɔ ase. Ke medi be mawɔ nane si ado dzidzɔ na mi, nye dɔwɔhatiwo ne meva, menye be mana mialé blanui o.
Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.
