2 Korinti 5
1 Hagi tagra antahi'none, ama mopafi seli nompima mani'nona nomo'ma tagna vaziramisigeno'a, tagria mevava nontia (tavufga) vahe'mo azanteti tro osu'neanki, Anumzamo tro huntegeno me'neankino monafinka mevava hugahie. (aiōnios g166)
We know that [these bodies] we live in [here in this world are like] [MET] tents. [They are like temporary living/dwelling places]. [So we should not be concerned about what happens to our bodies]. We know that if we are killed {if [someone] kills us}, God will give us [permanent living places. Those permanent living places] [MET] will not be houses that people have made. They [will be new bodies in which we will live forever] in heaven. (aiōnios g166)
2 Na'ankure ama nompi (tavufga) mani'neta tamage tusiza huta kragira neruta, monare kasefa mevava kukena huzankura tusiza huno tavenesigeta, avega ante'none.
[While we are here on earth, we suffer]. We often groan because we desire [to go] to heaven [where God] will give us our new [bodies] [MET].
3 Na'ankure tagra ana kukenama hanuta, tagra tavufga tavapara omanigahune.
When [God gives us(inc) our new bodies] [MET], our [spirits will have] [LIT, MET] bodies to live in [that will last forever].
4 Tagrama ama mopafi tavufgare'ma mani'neta tusiza huta kragira nerunkeno kna tave'nesie. Na'akure tagra tavufa tavapako omanita kukena hunaku nehune. Hianagi monare kukena antaninunkeno asimuma erino manizamo fri tavufga ahe fanane hanigeta, mevava tavufga erigahune.
[It is true that] while we are still living in these bodies [MET] [that do not last forever], we often groan [DOU] [because we desire to be free from them]. We are not longing to be without a body. Instead, [we groan because] we desire to receive our new bodies [MET] in heaven. We long for this to happen so that these bodies that are going to die some day will suddenly be changed [into bodies] that will live [forever].
5 Anumzamo'a ama agafare trohuranteno, Agra'a huhamprirante'nea zampinti esera Avamu'a amne tamineankita, antahita keta hanunana, makazana amne tamigahie.
It is God himself who has prepared us to [receive] these [new bodies]. He is also the one who has guaranteed/assured us [(inc)] that this will happen. He has guaranteed it by sending his Spirit [to live inside us now].
6 E'ina hu'negu tagra hakare zupa hanavenetita, ama tavufgare'ma mani'neta zahufa Ramo'enena omani'none huta nentahune.
So, [because God’s Spirit lives in us], we are always confident [that God will give us new bodies]. We know that as long as we have bodies here on [earth], we are not yet [living together] with the Lord [Jesus in heaven].
7 Na'ankure tagra onke'nonanagi, tamentinti nehune.
While we [(exc)] live [here, we] do not have our [new bodies, but we are] trusting [that God will give them to us].
8 Tagrira taguamo'a hankave e'nerigeta ama tavufga atreta Ramo'ene umanisuna zanku tave'nesie.
[As I said], we [(exc)] are confident [that he will give us new bodies]. We [(exc)] would much prefer to leave these bodies [which we have now], and be with the Lord [Jesus in our] home in [heaven].
9 E'ina hu'negu ama mopafima manisunano, Ramo ene umanisunano, Anumzamofoma ra agima amisunazankuke nehune.
Because of all that, we always want to please [Jesus in everything that we do]. Whether we [(exc)] are [still living] here [in these] bodies or whether we have [left] them and are living in our home [in heaven], we want to please him.
10 Na'ankure tagra ana miko'mota Kraisi avuga keaga refkohu trate otisunkeno, magoke magokemota ama tavufgare mani'neta, knare'zano havizano hu'nesuna avamente anteno, mizana tamitere hugahie.
[And we need to try hard to do that] because each one of us [believers] must stand before Christ [to be] judged [by him] {[when he will] judge [his people]}. [At that time] he will [reward each one of] us according to what we have done [while we lived in this world] in these bodies. [He will reward us according to] whether we have done good things or whether we have done evil things.
11 E'ina hu'negu Ramofo'ma koro hunte'za antahi'ama hunonku, hanavetita vahe'mokizimi antahintahia eriama huta nezamavrone. Hianagi Anumzamo'a tageno antahino hu'ne. Hagi nagrama nentahuana tamagranena tageta antahita nehaze.
It makes me fearful [to think that some day I will stand before the Lord for him to judge me]. So I [do everything that I can to] convince people [that they should believe] (OR, [that I teach] sincerely) [God’s message]. God knows very well [how I conduct my life and what I teach], and I really believe that you know it, too.
12 Tagra'a tavufga tamagrite mago'ane erisagahu kazigatira nosunanki, tagriku'ma tamavufgama erisagama hanaza zanku nehune, hu'negu amega zamufare'ma nege'za zamavufga ra nehu'za, zamaguafizama nonkaza vahera, kenona huzmantegahaze.
Once again [I say, as I write this], I am not just [trying to] make you think well/highly of me, [as some people will probably say that I am]. Instead, I am [telling you in this letter why you have] good reason [to tell those who criticize me] that you think highly of me. [I am telling you this] so that you will know what to say to those [teachers of false doctrine among you]. They are proud [of what they have done], instead of [making sure that] they [are right with God and being pleased with that].
13 Na'ankure tagrama neginagizama nehanuta, e'i Anumzamo ragi erisiegu nehune. Hagi tagrama fatgo antahintahitirema manisuta, e'i tamagri knarezankure.
[Some of them say that after God has enabled me to see visions], I [talk like] a crazy person. If [that is so, I want you to realize that I talk that way in order to please] God. On the other hand, if [you think that] I [speak and act] wisely, [that is good. I want you to know that I do] speak and act wisely in order to [help] you.
14 Kraisi avesizamo tazeri onetigeta tagra antahi'none, na'ankure magokemo, miko'mofonku huno fri'ne. E'ina hu'negu ana miko'mota fri'none.
[I speak and act the way I do] because the love that Christ [has for people] influences me [in everything that I say and do]. When Christ died, [he suffered the punishment] for [the sins of] all people. So, we should all [think of ourselves as having] died with him, [being as unresponsive to sinful desires as] [MET] a corpse is.
15 Hagi Agra miko'mofonku fri'negu, iza'o kasefa huno maninesimo'a, agra'a vesizantera omanigahe. Hianagi zamagriku'ma huno fri'teno oti'nemofo Kraisi avesizante manigahaze.
When [Christ] died for the everyone, he died in order that [we believers who are alive now] should not conduct our lives in a way that will just [please ourselves]. Instead, [we should conduct our lives in a way that will please] Christ, [because] he is the one who died for us and was brought back to life {whom [God] raised} again.
16 E'ina hu'negu menintetima agafa huno vaniana, vahe'mokizmia amega zamufgarera refko huozmantesune. Ana hu'negu tagranena anahukna huta Kraisina amega avufgare refakora hunte'nonanagi, menina antahi'none anara nosune.
So, [because I realize how much Christ loves everyone], I no longer think about people in the way that those who do not believe [in Christ] think about [them]. Before I [was a believer], I thought about Christ in the way that other non-believers did. But I do not think of him that way any more.
17 E'ina hu'negu mago'mo'ma Kraisimpima manisimofona Anumzamo'a azeri kasefa vahe fore nehie. Antahi ani huo, korapa avu'avamo'a fanane nehigeno, kasefa avu'ava fore nehie.
The fact is that God makes every one [of us] who [trusts] in Christ to be completely different [than we were before]. Our old [way of conducting our lives] is gone. We now have a [completely] new way of [conducting our lives].
18 Ama ana kasefa huno mani avu'avara Anumzamofontegati e'ne. Kraisimpina tagrira tazeri mago nehuno, erimago huno mani eri'zana tagritami'ne.
This [complete change in our lives] is all something that God [does]. It is God who made it possible for us to have a peaceful relationship with him. [He was able to do that] because of what Christ [did for us]. Now God [has sent] me, and those [who work] with me, to tell [people that they] can have a peaceful relationship with him.
19 Na'ankure Anumzamo'a Kraisimpi ama mopafi vahera, Agrane tazeri mago hu'ne, vahe'mo'zama kumi'ma hu'nazana antahizmino nona hunozmante. Hagi erimago huno manizamofo knare naneke huama hanunegu, tagrira tami'ne.
That is, [he sent us(exc) to tell them that] when Christ [died], God was [making it possible for everyone] [MTY] in the world to have a peaceful relationship with him. He no longer keeps a record of the sinful things that [we believers] have done. The message that [God] has given to us [to tell people is how we can have a] peaceful relationship with him.
20 E'ina hu'negu tagra Kraisi agi erita mani'none. Higeno Anumzamo'a vahe'agura tagripi huvazino kea nehie. Ana huta tagra Kraisinku huama nehanunketa tamagra Anumzamo'enena erimago hugahaze.
So, it is I and my companions who are Christ’s representatives [in this world. When we tell people the message about Christ], it is God himself who is pleading with them by means of what we [say]. So, as true representatives of Christ, we plead with you: [Believe God’s true message about Christ in order that you may] be reconciled to {have a peaceful relationship with} him.
21 Na'ankure Anumzamo'a kumi'a omane'nea ne'mofo Kraisina tagri kumiku, azeri kumi vahekna nehuno, tagri kumira Agumpi erinte'nea zamo, tagrira Anumzamofo avure tazeri fatgo vahera nese.
[You must believe that even though] Jesus never sinned, God [punished him for all the] sinful things [that people do, just] as [if Jesus had done those sinful things himself]. And because of our close relationship with Christ, God has erased the record of our sins/declared us no longer guilty for our sins.
