1 Pọl, onyeozi nke Jisọs Kraịst dịka ọchịchọ nke Chineke si dị, na Timoti nwanne anyị nwoke, Na-edegara chọọchị Chineke nke dị na Kọrint, na ndị nsọ niile ndị nọ nʼala Akaịa akwụkwọ:
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, through the will of God, and Timotheus the brother, to the Assembly of God that is in Corinth, with all the holy ones who are in all Achaia:
2 Ka amara na udo nke sitere na Chineke Nna anyị, na Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst dịrị unu.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
3 Otuto dịrị Chineke na Nna nke Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst, bụ Nna nke obi ebere, nakwa Chineke nke nkasiobi niile.
Blessed [is] God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and God of all comfort,
4 Onye na-akasị anyị obi nʼime nsogbu anyị niile, ka anyị site nʼụzọ dị otu a nwee ike ịkasị ndị ọzọ niile nọ na nsogbu dị iche iche obi. Inyere ha aka dịka anyị onwe anyị si nata inyeaka site nʼaka Chineke.
who is comforting us in all our tribulation, for our being able to comfort those in any tribulation through the comfort with which we are comforted ourselves by God;
5 Nʼihi na dịka anyị si eketa oke nʼime ọtụtụ ahụhụ nke Kraịst, otu a nkasiobi anyị na-ababiga ụba site na Kraịst.
because, as the sufferings of the Christ abound to us, so through the Christ our comfort also abounds;
6 Ma ọ bụrụ na anyị na-ahụ ahụhụ, ọ bụ nʼihi na nkasiobi unu, nakwa nzọpụta unu. Ọ bụrụkwa na a na-akasị anyị obi, ọ bụkwa nʼihi nkasiobi unu, nke na-arụpụta ike na ume iji ntachiobi die ụdị ahụhụ nke anyị onwe anyị na-edikwa.
and whether we be in tribulation, [it is] for your comfort and salvation, that is worked in the enduring of the same sufferings that we also suffer; whether we are comforted, [it is] for your comfort and salvation;
7 Olileanya anyị nwere nʼebe unu nọ sịrị ike, ebe anyị maara na dịka unu si eketa oke nʼịta ahụhụ anyị, otu ahụkwa ka unu ga-esi keta oke na nkasiobi ahụ anyị na-anata.
and our hope [is] steadfast for you, knowing that even as you are partakers of the sufferings—so also of the comfort.
8 Anyị chọrọ ka unu mara ụmụnna m, ihe banyere nsogbu e sogburu anyị nʼEshịa. Nʼezie, nsogbu ahụ karịrị anyị ike, mee ka anyị hapụ inwekwa olileanya na anyị ga-emesi dịrị ndụ.
For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brothers, of our tribulation that happened to us in Asia, that we were exceedingly burdened above [our] power, so that we even despaired of life;
9 Nʼezie, ọ dị nnọọ nʼoge ahụ, dịka a ga-asị na a mara anyị ikpe ọnwụ. Ma anyị maara na o si otu a mee ka anyị nwee ike ịmụta na o kwesighị ka anyị tụkwasị obi nʼike nke aka anyị, kama ka anyị nwee olileanya nʼime Chineke, onye pụrụ ime ka ndị nwụrụ anwụ si nʼọnwụ bilie.
but we ourselves have had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we may not be trusting on ourselves, but on God, who is raising the dead,
10 Ọ bụ Chineke bụ onye zọpụtara anyị site nʼime oke ọnwụ dị otu a. Anyị nwekwara ntụkwasị obi na ọ ga-aga nʼihu na-azọpụtakwa anyị,
who delivered us out of so great a death, and delivers, in whom we have hoped that even yet He will deliver;
11 dịka unu ga-enyekwara anyị aka site nʼekpere unu, ka ọtụtụ nwere ike nye ekele nʼihi anyị maka onyinye amara anyị natara na nzaghachi ekpere ọtụtụ mmadụ ndị a na-ekpere anyị.
you also working together for us by your supplication, that the gift through many persons to us, through many, may be thankfully acknowledged for us.
12 Ịnya isi anyị bụ nke a, na akọnuche anyị na-agbara anyị akaebe na anyị kpara agwa ọma nʼụwa, karịchasịa nʼebe unu nọ, nʼịdị nsọ na izi ezi nke si nʼaka Chineke. Nke a bụ site nʼamara o nyere anyị, ọ bụghị site nʼamamihe nke mmadụ.
For our glorying is this: the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom, but in the grace of God, we conducted ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you;
13 Nʼihi na ihe anyị na-edere unu abụghị ihe unu na agaghị agụta maọbụ ghọta. Enwere m nchekwube na unu ga-aghọta ya nke ọma.
for no other things do we write to you, but what you either read or also acknowledge, and I hope that you will also acknowledge to the end,
14 Dịka unu ghọtarala anyị nwa nke nta ugbu a, unu ga-eji anyị anya isi nʼụbọchị nke Onyenwe anyị Jisọs.
according as you also acknowledged us in part, that we are your glory, even as also you [are] ours, in the Day of the Lord Jesus;
15 Ihe m na-ekwu were m anya, nke mere m ji chọọ ibu ụzọ bịa leta unu ka unu nwee uru abụọ.
and in this confidence I was intending to come to you before, that you might have a second favor,
16 Ebu m ya nʼobi na m ga-akwụsị hụ unu mgbe m na-agafe ịga Masidonia. Ebukwa m ya nʼobi m na mgbe m si Masidonia na-alaghachi na m ga-akwụsịkwa ileta unu, ka unu nweekwa ike inyere anyị aka mgbe anyị bidoro ịlaghachi Judịa.
and to pass to Macedonia through you, and to come to you again from Macedonia, and to be sent forward by you to Judea.
17 E nwere m obi abụọ mgbe m chọrọ ime nke a? Ana m ezube nzube m dịka mmadụ nkịtị, onye dị nkwadobe ikwu “E,” na “E e,” nʼotu oge ahụ?
This, therefore, intending, did I then use the lightness; or the things that I counsel, [did] I counsel according to the flesh, that it may be with me Yes, yes, and No, no?
18 Ma dịka Chineke si bụrụ onye kwesiri ntụkwasị obi, okwu anyị gwara unu abụghị “E,” na “E e.”
And God [is] faithful, that our word to you did not become Yes and No,
19 Nʼihi na Ọkpara Chineke, Jisọs Kraịst, onye e sitere nʼọnụ Saịlas na Timoti na mụ onwe m kwusaa abụghị “E” na “E e,” kama nʼime ya ọ bụ naanị “E.”
for the Son of God, Jesus Christ, having been preached through us among you—through me and Silvanus and Timotheus—did not become Yes and No, but in Him it has become Yes;
20 Nʼime Kraịst ka anyị hụrụ “E” na nkwa niile nke Chineke kwere ụmụ mmadụ. Nke a mere anyị ji site na ya kwee “Amen” nʼinye Chineke otuto.
for as many as [are] promises of God, in Him [are] the Yes, and in Him the Amen, for glory to God through us;
21 Ọ bụ Chineke nʼonwe ya mere ka anyị na unu guzosie ike nʼime Kraịst. O meela ka anyị bụrụ ndị e tere mmanụ.
and He who is confirming you with us into Christ, and anointed us, [is] God,
22 Ọ kara anyị akara nʼihu, nyekwa anyị Mmụọ Nsọ ya ka o biri nʼobi anyị, dịka onye ga-ahụ na anyị ga-emezu nkwa ahụ niile.
who also sealed us, and gave the deposit of the Spirit in our hearts.
23 Ana m akpọku Chineke dịka onye akaebe m, ọ bụ nʼihi ịnapụta unu mere m ji hapụ ịbịa Kọrint.
And I call on God for a witness on my soul, that sparing you, I did not come to Corinth yet;
24 Ọ bụghị na anyị bụ ndị ọchịchị nke okwukwe unu, kama anyị so unu na-arụkọ ọrụ ka unu nwe ọṅụ nʼihi na ọ bụ site nʼokwukwe ka unu ga-esi kwụrụ chịm.
not that we are lords over your faith, but we are workers together with your joy, for by faith you stand.
