2 Ukorintiyawa 7
1 An de sa ma hem shi, sa a'inko duru agino abanga abanga me, ca ti kpici ace aru me anyimo kode iya imum izenze be sa idi kem apum aru wan anyimo muriba muru me, wa anu uhira ugitak wasere anyimo ati cukum iriba ilau.
With these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that pollutes either body or spirit, and, in deepest reverence for God, aim at perfect holiness.
2 Vete nin muriba mushi me! in haru daki ta rii iri mum ishi me ba, daki ta cari uye ushi nizani ba. Daki ta huu uye ushi me ba.
Make room for us in your hearts. In no instance have we ever wronged, or harmed, or taken advantage of, any one.
3 Azo me, agi in nya shi tiyari tini ya wuna ma buka shi ani me, barki mamu buka shi, imum ihem ini izi ahira aru me kagk, nyanini tidaa ti vengize, uharzina uzoni.
I am not saying this to condemn you. Indeed, I have already said that you are in our very heart, to live and die together.
4 Ma kaba shi intari tire, in kuri in hiri shi wani. Iriba imme iciki in nikara. Vat uyomko uge be sa azi duru ni inzi na puru arum akadura.
I have the utmost confidence in you; I am always boasting about you. I am full of encouragement and, in spite of all our troubles, my heart is overflowing with happiness.
5 Uganiya sa ta e amanyanga Makidoniya daki ta kem uguna ti venke ba, abini me, a meki unyanki uru uraa akode uya una, amatara imum ya corno me, a ukunna iyau be anyimo a muriba muru me.
Ever since we reached Macedonia, we have had no rest in body or mind; on every side there have been troubles — conflicts without, anxieties within.
6 Abini me Asere, sa me mani ma wuza anu uzatu akara iriba i-ho, madusa ma nyan duru iriba i-ho barki u aye Utitus.
But God, who encourages the downcast, has encouraged us by the arrival of Titus.
7 Azo me uye Titus cas, wanu wuna iriba i-ho igino me sa ma kem a hira ashi me, uganiya sa ma bukin duru izinu ubee um, izinu inso umuriba, ya kuri ya nya acennan unu tarsa amaru am, ma kuri ma wunaniriba irum kang.
And it is not only by his arrival that we are encouraged, but also by the encouragement which he received from you; for he tells us of your strong affection, your penitence, and your zeal on my behalf — so that I am happier still.
8 Ucara iriba me sa maa cari shini uganiya sa ma nyetike in tuburko a'e shi ni, mi izo menina puru abit ni, innu wuna ugino, sa ya zi maziki apuru abit barki iri unyetike ugino me wa cari shi muriba ni, sa ma waa ziki shi uganiya uni kaf.
For, though I caused you sorrow by my letter, I do not regret it. Even if I were inclined to regret it — for I see that my letter did cause you sorrow though only for a time —
9 Akani ige me, in zini iriba irum, azo agi barki iriba ibit ishi me sa ya wuu, barki apuru abit aru me anwuu hem in tize me, barki ya wuu apuru abit gusi agebe sa Asere ma nyara. Barki ani me daki ya kem urizo utize me anyimo aru me.
I am glad now; not because of the sorrow it caused you, but because your sorrow brought you to repentance. For it was God’s will that you should feel sorrow, in order that you should not suffer loss in any way at our hands.
10 Gusi apuru abit be Asere a wuza anun, une uni utarsa anabu wa kabi ta Asere nan unu kem ubura, uda ezze me unu guna daki ma rusa ini, apuru abit abnga unee a hungo iwono.
For, when sorrow is in accordance with God’s will, it results in a repentance leading to Salvation, and which will never be regretted. The sure result of the sorrow that the world knows is Death.
11 Irani usasana apuru abit age me, sa Asere a nyara awuu ani anyimo a muriba mushi, nan ina be sa ya wuzin tini barki abarka tanu tishi me, nan nu kunna iriba be sa ya zin nan nu inko iriba ubarka acce ashi me. Anyimo igino imum me, ya bezi uguna kode daki ya cara abanga ni ba.
For see what results that other sorrow — sorrow in accordance with God’s will — has had in your case. What earnestness it produced! what explanations! what strong feeling! what alarm! what longing! what eagerness! what readiness to punish! You have proved yourselves altogether free from guilt in that matter.
12 Ana me sa izi guna ma nyertike in tuburko shinin, azo me anicce ni de sa aburi me, imum anyara a bezi uguna u'intan duru me merum ahira Asere.
So, then, even though I did write to you, it was not for the sake of the wrong-doer, or of the man who was wronged, but to make you conscious, in the sight of God, of your own earnest care for us. And it is this that has encouraged us.
13 Barki ani me ani, iriba iru iciki in nikara, ukinki abanga anikara niriba iru, kani me tizi ini riba iru kang barki Titus, barki ya ruma me iriba.
In addition to the encouragement that this gave us, we were made far happier still by the happiness of Titus for his heart has been cheered by you all.
14 Barki uguna inki inzini vengize bigiri in shi ahira ameme, mu'i mu zoni ahira am. Ure ugunkuno, gusi vat imum be sa ta buka shi kadure kani kazi, ani me ani izi uvengize igiri iru me ahira a Titus ya kadure kani.
Although I have been boasting a little to him about you, you did not put me to shame; but, just as every thing we had said to you was true, so our boasting to Titus about you has also proved to be the truth.
15 Iriba ime me raa ahira ashi me, iteki ituba piit, u ganiya be sa inki ma ringin unu tarsa me sa ya tarsi me vat ushi, nan nu kaba me sa ya kabi me una uni nonzo, n igo wan unu inta ume memerum.
And his affection for you is all the greater, as he remembers the deference that you all showed him, and recalls how you received him with anxious care.
16 Inzi ini iriba irum, barki shi ana kadure kani.
I am glad that I can feel perfect confidence in you.
