2 Ndị Kọrint 12

1 Aghaghị m ịnya isi, ọ bụ ezie na ọ baghị uru, ugbu a ka m gwa unu ihe banyere ọhụ m hụrụ, na ihe niile Onyenwe anyị kpughere gosi m.

It behooves me to glory, indeed it is not profitable, I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.

2 Amaara m otu nwoke nọ nʼime Kraịst, onye e duuru gaa nʼeluigwe nke atọ ihe dị ka afọ iri na anọ gara aga, maọbụ nʼanụ ahụ, maọbụ nʼime mmụọ amaghị m, ma Chineke ma.

I knew a man in Christ, fourteen years ago, whether in the body, I know not; whether out of the body, I know not, such a one having been caught up even to the third heaven.

3 Amatakwara m nwoke dị otu a, maọbụ nʼanụ ahụ, maọbụ nʼime mmụọ amaghị m, ma Chineke maara

And I knew such a man, whether in the body, or out of the body, I know not; God knows,

4 onye a, nke a kpọọrọ banye na paradaịs, ebe ọ nụrụ ihe ọnụ mmadụ na-apụghị ịkọwa, nke e nyeghịkwa mmadụ ọbụla ike ikwu ihe banyere ya.

that he was caught up to Paradise, and heard unutterable words, which it is impossible for a man to speak.

5 Ekwesiri m ịnya isi nʼihi nwoke dị otu a ma agaghị m anya isi maka mụ onwe m, ma ọ bụghị maka adịghị ike m.

Concerning such a one I will glory: but concerning myself I will not glory, except in my infirmities.

6 A sị na m chọrọ ịnya isi, agaghị m abụ onye nzuzu, nʼihi na aga m ekwu naanị eziokwu. Otu ọ dị, agaghị m anya isi ka onye ọbụla ghara ịgụ ọnọdụ m karịa ihe ọ hụrụ nʼime m, maọbụ karịa ihe ọ nụrụ nʼọnụ m.

For if I shall wish to glory, I will not be a fool; for I speak the truth: but I fear, lest some one may consider with reference to me above what he sees me, or hears from me.

7 Ma nʼihi na ọtụtụ ihe ndị a m ji anya m hụ bụ ihe pụrụ ime ka m bulie onwe m elu karịa ka o si kwesi. E tinyere ihe mgbu nʼanụ ahụ m ka ọ na-adụ m dịka ogwu. Ihe mgbu a dị nʼanụ ahụ m na-eti m aka dịka onyeozi nke ekwensu, na-eme ka m ghara ịfụlị onwe m elu karịa.

And that I may not be exalted by the abundance of revelations, a thorn was given unto me in the flesh, the messenger of Satan that he may buffet me, in order that I may not be exalted.

8 Ekpeela m ekpere ugboro atọ rịọ Onyenwe anyị ka o wepụrụ m ahụ mgbu a.

Three times I called on the Lord concerning this, that it may depart from me.

9 Ma ọ sịrị m, “Amara m ezuorola gị. Nʼihi na ike m na-ezu oke nʼime adịghị ike.” Ugbu a, obi dị m ụtọ ịnya isi banyere adịghị ike m. Nʼihi na ọ bụ site nʼọnọdụ adịghị ike m ka ike ebube Kraịst ga-esi nọgide nʼahụ m.

And he said to me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for power is made perfect in weakness. Therefore most delightfully I will glory the more in my infirmities, in order that the power of Christ may abide on me.

10 Ọ bụ nʼihi Kraịst ka m na-anọgide nʼadịghị ike m niile, mkparị ndị mmadụ, ihe isi ike niile, mkpagbu niile na ihe ndakwasị dị iche iche. Nʼihi na mgbe m na-adịghị ike ka m na-enwe ike karịa.

Therefore I delight in infirmities, in insults, in difficulties, in persecutions, and in tight places, for Christ's sake: for when I am without strength, then I am dynamite.

11 Emeela m onwe m onye nzuzu ma unu onwe unu rugidere m ime ya. O kwesiri ka unu bụrụ ndị mbụ ga-eto m. Ọ bụ ezie a na-abụghị m ihe ọbụla, ma o were m anya na ọ dịghị ụzọ ọbụla m si dị ala nʼebe ndị ahụ unu na-eche na ha kachasị elu nʼetiti ndị ozi.

I have become a fool: you did compel me. For I ought to be commended by you: for I am not inferior to the very chief of the apostles, if indeed I am nothing.

12 Ejiri m ndidi rụọ ọrụ nʼetiti unu, ihe iji gosi na abụ m nwaazụ nʼeziokwu. Egosiri m unu ihe ịrịbama, ọrụ ebube dị iche iche, na ọtụtụ oke ọrụ.

For indeed the signs of the apostleship are wrought in me in all patience, in miracles and in wonders and in dynamites.

13 Olee ụzọ unu si dị ala nʼebe chọọchị ndị ọzọ dị, ma ọ bụghị na m abụghị ibu arọ nye unu? Gbagharanụ m mmejọ a.

For what is that in which you are inferior to other churches, except that I did not burden you? forgive me this wrong.

14 Nke a bụ ugboro atọ m na-ejikere ịbịakwute unu. Agaghị m abụrụ unu ibu arọ, ihe dị m mkpa abụghị akụ unu nwere, kama unu onwe unu. Ọ bụghị ụmụntakịrị ka ọ dịrị ịkpadoro nne na nna ha ihe, kama ọ bụ ọrụ dịrị nne na nna ịkpadoro ụmụ ha ihe.

Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not spare: for I do not seek yours, but you. For the children ought not to lay up treasures for the parents, but the parents for the children,

15 Nʼezie, ọ na-atọ m ụtọ iwere onwe m na ihe niile m nwere nye unu, nʼihi na ahụrụ m unu nʼanya. Ma ọ bụrụ na m hụrụ unu nʼanya karịa, ọ ga-adị mma ma unu hụ m nʼanya nke nta?

But I will most delightfully spend and be spent for your souls. If the more abundantly I love you am I loved the less?

16 Nʼagbanyeghị na-abụrụ m unu ibu arọ, ụfọdụ nʼime unu na-ekwu, ọ bụ ezie na ọ dịghị anara anyị ihe ọbụla, maọbụ onye aghụghọ. Ma eleghị anya, o nwere ụzọ aghụghọ dị iche iche o si anara anyị ihe.

But let it he so, I did not burden you; but, being crafty, I caught you with guile.

17 Ọ dị onye ọbụla m ziteere unu, iji si nʼaka ya rigbuo unu?

Which one of those whom I sent unto you, did I fleece you through him?

18 Arịọrọ m Taịtọs ka ọ bịakwute unu, ya na nwanna anyị nwoke ọzọ. Taịtọs o rigburu unu? O nwere ihe dị iche nʼuche na omume mụ na ya?

I called Titus, and sent the brother along with him: whether did Titus defraud you? did we not walk by the same Spirit? did we not in the same tracks?

19 Unu chere na ihe anyị na-eme oge niile ndị a bụ ịgọpụ onwe anyị nʼihu unu? Ọ bụ nʼihu Chineke ka anyị na-ekwu nke a nʼime Kraịst. Ndị m hụrụ nʼanya, ihe ndị a anyị na-ekwu bụ maka ọdịmma unu.

For a long time you were thinking that I am apologizing to you. We speak before God in Christ; but all things, beloved, are for your edification.

20 Nʼihi na ihe na-atụ m egwu bụ na mgbe m bịara nʼetiti unu, ihe m ga-ahụ agaghị atọ m ụtọ. Mgbe ahụ mmeso m ga-emeso unu agakwaghị atọ unu atọ. Nʼihi na ana m atụ egwu na mgbe m bịakwutere unu ọzọ, aga m ahụ ọtụtụ nʼime unu ka unu na-ese okwu, aga m ahụ ka unu na-ekwosa ibe unu ekworo, aga m ahụ unu ka unu na-akpasu ibe unu iwe. Aga m ahụ ọtụtụ ndị na-afụli onwe ha elu, ndị na-ekwu ọtụtụ ihe ọjọọ dị iche iche megide ndị ọzọ; aga m ahụ ọtụtụ ndị jupụtara nʼaghụghọ na ịkpa iche iche.

For I fear lest, having come, I may not find you as I wish, and may not be found by you as you wish; lest perhaps strife, jealousy, animosities, selfseekings, calumniations, eavesdroppings, inflations, outfallings, are among you;

21 Ana m atụ egwu na mgbe m ga-abịakwute unu ọzọ, Chineke m ga-eme ka m weda onwe m ala nʼihu unu, mee ka m kwa akwa nʼihi ụfọdụ nʼime unu ndị mehiere na mbụ, ma ha achọghị ichegharị site nʼihe ọjọọ ha mere, na nʼihi ọtụtụ nʼime unu na-adị ndụ rere ure, ndụ na-adịghị ọcha, ndụ ịkwa iko, na ndụ ọjọọ.

lest, I again having come, my God will humble me before you, and I will mourn over many of those having previously committed sins, and not having repented over the uncleanness and the fornication and debauchery which they have done.
