Sie Thessalonica 2
1 Mwet wiasr in lulalfongi, kowos sifacna etu lah muta lasr inmasrlowos ah tia wangin sripa.
For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance to you, that it was not in vain:
2 Kowos nuna etu luman mwe keok ac kas in akkoluk ma orek nu sesr in acn Philippi meet liki kut tuku nu yuruwos. Ac finne oasr alein yohk orek, God lasr El akpulaikye kut in fahkak nu suwos Pweng Wo su tuku sel me.
But even after we had suffered before, and were shamefully treated, as ye know, at Phillippi, we were bold in our God to speak to you the gospel of God with much contention.
3 Kas in kwafe lasr nu suwos tia ma ke ma sutuu, ku ke inkanek fohkfok, ku ma in kiapwela kutena mwet.
For our exhortation [was] not from deceit, nor from impurity, nor in guile;
4 A pacl nukewa kut fahkak ma God El lungse kut in fahk, mweyen El srike kut tari, ac ase kunasr in fahkak Pweng Wo. Ouinge kut tia srike in akinsewowoye mwet, a in akinsewowoye God.
But as we were allowed by God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, who trieth our hearts.
5 Kowos arulana etu lah kut tia orekmakin kas in aklukuk nu suwos, ku srike in eis ma lowos ke sripen kut nunku kacsr sifacna — God El etu lah pwaye.
For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God [is] witness:
6 Kut tia suk kaksak sin kutena mwet — tia ma suwos me ku sin mwet ngia,
Nor from men sought we glory, neither from you, nor [yet] from others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.
7 finne pwaye lah kut mwet sap lun Christ, ac fal tuh kut in eis mwe enenu lasr suwos. A kut tuh inse kulang na ke kut muta yuruwos ah, oana sie nina ke el karingin tulik natul sifacna.
But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children:
8 Ke sripen lungse lasr nu suwos, kut tuh akola in sot nu suwos Pweng Wo lun God ac oayapa moul lasr sifacna, mweyen kowos arulana saok sesr!
So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted to you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear to us.
9 Mwet lili ac lulu, kowos esam na ouiyen orekma upa ac toasr lasr inmasrlowos! Kut orekma ke len ac fong tuh kut in tia akkwacoye kowos ke kut fahkak Pweng Wo sin God.
For ye remember, brethren, our labor and toil: for laboring night and day, because we would not be chargeable to any of you, we preached to you the gospel of God.
10 Kowos mwet loh lasr, ac oayapa God, lah orekma lasr inmasrlowos mwet lulalfongi, tuh nasnas, suwohs, ac wangin kutu srisrik mwatasr.
Ye [are] witnesses, and God [also], how holily, and justly, and unblamably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:
11 Kowos etu na lah kut karingin kais sie suwos oana ke sie papa el karingin tulik natul sifacna.
As ye know how we exhorted, and comforted, and charged every one of you, as a father [doth] his children,
12 Kut tuh akkeye kowos ac akwoye nunkowos, ac pacl nukewa kut tuh kwafe kowos in moulkin ouiyen moul ma ac akinsewowoye God, su pangon kowos in welul in tokosrai lal ac ipeis ke wolana lal.
That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you into his kingdom and glory.
13 Oasr pac sie sripa ma pwanang kut in sang kulo nu sin God pacl nukewa: ke kut tuh fahkak kas lun God nu suwos, kowos tuh porongo ac eis, tia oana kas lun mwet uh, a kas na pwaye sin God me. Tuh God El orekma in kowos su lulalfongi.
For this cause also we thank God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard from us, ye received [it] not [as] the word of men, but (as it is in truth) the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.
14 Mwet wiasr in lulalfongi, ma orek nu suwos ingan orek pac nu sin mwet in church lun God in acn Judea, aok nu sin mwet lun Jesus Christ in acn we. Akkeokyeyuk kowos sin mwet wiowos oapana mwe keok ma orek nu selos sin mwet Jew,
For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things from your own countrymen, even as they [have] from the Jews:
15 su unilya Leum Jesus ac mwet palu, ac oayapa liskutla liki acn sesr. Elos tuh arulana akkasrkusrakye God, ac elos nunak sulallal nu sin mwet nukewa!
Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:
16 Elos srike pac in ikol kut tuh kut in tia fahkak kas lun God nu sin mwet sayen mwet Jew — kas su ac mwe molela nu selos. Ma koluk lalos inge arulana alukela ma koluk nukewa elos oru pacl nukewa. Ac inge, kasrkusrak lun God putati nu faclos!
Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved, to fill up their sins always: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
17 Inge, mwet lili ac lulu, ke kitin pacl ma lisyukla kut liki kowos — aok ke manosr, tuh tia in nunak lasr — kut asroekowosla ac srike ke kuiyasr in sifilpa liye kowos!
But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavored the more abundantly to see your face with great desire.
18 Kut kena in sifil folokot nu yuruwos. Pacl pus nga sifacna srike ngan folokot nu yuruwos, tuh Satan el ikolkuti.
Wherefore we would have come to you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.
19 Aok, ye mutun Leum lasr Jesus ke el ac tuku, kowos — ac tia kutena mwet saya! — pa mwe finsrak lasr, ac mwe engan lasr, ac mwe konkin lasr, oana sie tefuro in kutangla.
For what [is] our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? [Are] not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?
20 Pwaye, kowos pa mwe konkin ac mwe engan lasr uh.
For ye are our glory and joy.
