2 Corinto 3
1 Rugrugianmi kadi manen a padayawan dagiti bagbagimi? Saanmi a kasapulan dagiti surat a mangirekomendar kadakami kadakayo wenno manipud kadakayo, a kas kadagiti dadduma a tattao, kasapulanmi kadi?
Must we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some, letters of recommendation to you, or letters of recommendation from you?
2 Dakayo a mismo ti surat a mangirekomendar kadakami, a naisurat kadagiti puspusomi, a naammoan ken nabasa dagiti amin a tattao.
You are out letter, written on our hearts, known and read of all men.
3 Ken ipakpakitayo a dakayo ket surat manipud kenni Cristo, nga inyawatmi. Naisurat daytoy saan a babaen iti tinta ngem babaen iti Espiritu ti sibibiag a Dios. Saan a naisurat daytoy kadagiti tapi ti bato, ngem kadagiti tapi dagiti puspuso dagiti tattao.
For you are plainly declared Christ's letter, ministered by us, written, not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not on tables of stone, but on fleshly tables of the heart.
4 Ket daytoy ti kinatalged nga adda kadakami iti Dios babaen kenni Cristo.
Now we have such confidence through Christ, toward God;
5 Saankami a natalged kadagiti bagbagimi a mangaklon a naggapu kadakami ti aniaman a banag. Ngem ketdi, ti kabaelanmi ket naggapu iti Dios.
not that we are competent by ourselves to reckon anything as from ourselves: but our competency is from God,
6 Ta ti Dios ti nangted kadakami iti kabaelan nga agbalin nga adipen iti baro a tulag. Daytoy a tulag ket saan a naggapu iti surat ngem iti Espiritu. Ta ti surat ket pumatay, ngem ti Espiritu ket mangmangted iti biag.
who has made us competent ministers of a new institution; not of letter, but of spirit: for the letter kills; but the spirit makes alive.
7 Ita, ti aramid iti patay a naikitikit kadagiti letra kadagiti bato ket immay iti kasta unay a kinadayag a dagiti tattao ti Israel a saanda nabaelan ti kumita ti rupa ni Moises. Gapu daytoy iti dayag iti rupana, maysa a dayag nga agpukpukaw.
For if the ministration of death in letters engraved on stone was with glory, so that the children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses, because of the glory of his face, which was to be abolished;
8 Saan kadi nga ad-adda pay a nadaydayag ti trabaho iti Espiritu?
how much rather shall not the ministration of the Spirit be with glory?
9 Ta no adda dayag ti trabaho ti pannakaukom, ad-adda pay ti kinadayag ti trabaho iti kinalinteg!
For if the ministration of condemnation was glorious, much more does the ministration of justification abound in glory.
10 Ta pudno unay, a ti naminsan a napagbalin a nadayag ket saanen a nadayag gapu iti dayag a nangartap iti daytoy.
For, indeed, that which was glorified, was not glorified, in this respect, by reason of the transcendent glory.
11 Ta no addaan iti dayag ti mapukpukawen, ad-adda pay ti kinadayag ti agtalinaed!
For if that which is abolished was with glory, much more that which continues, is with glory.
12 Agsipud ta addaankami iti kasta a kinatalged, naturedkami unay.
Having, therefore, such confidence, we use great plainness of speech;
13 Saankami a kas kenni Moises a nangikabil iti dalungdong iti rupana tapno saan a makita dagiti tattao iti Israel ti pagpatinggaan ti mapukpukawen a dayag.
and not as Moses, who put a vail upon his face, that the children of Israel might not steadfastly look to the end of that which is abolished.
14 Ngem nakullaapan dagiti panpanunotda. Uray agingga kadagitoy nga aldaw ti isu met laeng a dalungdong ket agtaltalinaed iti panagbasa iti daan a tulag. Saan a nalukatan daytoy, gapu ta babaen laeng kenni Cristo a naaramid daytoy.
Indeed, their minds were blinded: for, till this day, the same vail remains in the reading of the Old Institution; it not being discovered that it is abolished in Christ.
15 Ngem uray ita, tunggal basaenda dagiti insurat ni Moises, adda dalungdong kadagiti puspusoda.
Moreover, till this day, when Moses is read, the vail lies upon their heart.
16 Ngem no sumango ti maysa tao iti Apo, maingato a maiyadayo ti dalungdongna.
But when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken from around it.
17 Ita, ti Dios ket ti Espiritu. Sadinoman nga ayan ti Espiritu ti Dios, adda wayawaya.
Now, the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
18 Ita, amintayo nga awan ti abbong ti rupana, ket makitatayo ti dayag ti Apo. Mabalbaliwantayo iti isu met laeng a kinadayag manipud iti maysa a tukad ti kinadayag nga agturong iti sabali pay a kinadayag, kas naggapu iti Apo, nga isu ti Espiritu.
And we all, with unvailed face, beholding, as in a mirror, the glory of the Lord; are transformed into the same image, from glory to glory, as by the Lord, the Spirit.
