Luo Corinth 2

1 Ouinge nga tuh sifacna sulela sik in tia sifilpa fahsrot nu yuruwos, tuh nga in tia akasorye kowos.

But I determined this for myself, that I would not come to you again in sorrow.

2 Mweyen nga fin oru kowos in asor, na su ac ku in akpwaryeyu? Elos na su nga tuh akasorye.

For if I make you grieve, then who will make me glad but he who is made to grieve by me?

3 Pa inge sripen nga tuh sim nu suwos meet ah — nga tia lungse fahsrot nu yuruwos ac aksupwaryeyuk sin mwet na ma fal in akenganyeyu. Tuh nga pula tari lah nga fin engan, na kowos nukewa wi pac engan.

And I wrote this very thing to you, so that when I came, I wouldn’t have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all that my joy would be shared by all of you.

4 Ke nga tuh sim nu suwos, nga tuh inse asor ac supwarlana ac nga tung pac; tia tuh nga in akasorye kowos, a tuh kowos in ku in akilen lupan lungse luk nu suwos nukewa.

For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you should be made to grieve, but that you might know the love that I have so abundantly for you.

5 Inge, fin oasr sie inmasrlowos su akasorye siena mwet, el tia oru nu sik, a nu suwos nukewa — ku sahp kutu na suwos. (Nga fahk ouinge mweyen nga tia lungse in upala nu sel.)

But if any has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow not to me, but in part (that I not press too heavily) to you all.

6 Fal tari kaiyuk ma inkaiyowos tuh sang nu sin mwet se ingan.

This punishment which was inflicted by the many is sufficient for such a one;

7 Na inge, kowos enenu in nunak munas nu sel ac akkeyal, tuh asor lal in tia yokelik, pwanang el fuhleak lulalfongi lal.

so that, on the contrary, you should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his excessive sorrow.

8 Ouinge nga kwafe suwos in akkalemye nu sel lah pwaye kowos lungse el.

Therefore I beg you to confirm your love toward him.

9 Nga tuh sim nu suwos mweyen nga ke srike kowos, ac liye lah kowos akola pacl nukewa in akos kas in luti luk.

For to this end I also wrote, that I might know the proof of you, whether you are obedient in all things.

10 Ke kowos nunak munas nu sin sie mwet, nga wi pac nunak munas nu sel. Tuh pacl nga nunak munas — fin oasr ma fal nga in nunak munas kac — nga oru ma inge ye mutun Christ, ke sripowos,

Now I also forgive whomever you forgive anything. For if indeed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Messiah,

11 in kutongilya Satan elan tia kutangkutla, mweyen kut etu ouiya kutasrik lal.

that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes.

12 Ke nga sun acn Troas in fahkak Pweng Wo ke Christ we, nga konauk lah Leum el ikasla tari inkanek nu ke orekma uh.

Now when I came to Troas for the Good News of Messiah, and when a door was opened to me in the Lord,

13 Tusruktu nga tuh arulana fosrnga, mweyen nga tia ku in konalak Titus, mwet wiasr in orekma uh. Ke ma inge nga wilkas nu sin mwet we, ac som nu Macedonia.

I had no relief for my spirit, because I didn’t find Titus my brother, but taking my leave of them, I went out into Macedonia.

14 A kut in sang kulo nu sin God! Tuh ke kut ma sefanna yurin Christ, God El kol kut in kutangla pacl nukewa. Ac El orekmakin kut in oru tuh etauk ke Christ in fahsrelik nu yen nukewa oana sie foul na keng.

Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Messiah, and reveals through us the sweet aroma of his knowledge in every place.

15 Tuh kut oana sie mwe kisa keng fohlo, ma Christ el kisakin nu sin God, ac fohlo se inge fahsrelik nu inmasrlolos su fahsr ke inkanek in moul, oayapa nu inmasrlolos su fahsr ke inkanek in tuhlac.

For we are a sweet aroma of Messiah to God in those who are saved and in those who perish:

16 Tuh nu selos su ac tuhlac, ma inge oana foulin ma misa su mwe uniya; a nu selos su ac moulla, ma inge sie foul keng ma ase moul. Na su ac fal in oru orekma ouinge uh?

to the one a stench from death to death, to the other a sweet aroma from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things?

17 Kut tia oana mwet puspis saya, su orekma ke kas lun God oana ma lusronten ma elos kukakin; a ke sripen God El supwekut, kut fahk ma na pwaye ye mutal, oana mwet kulansap lun Christ.

For we are not as so many, peddling the word of God. But as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, we speak in Messiah.
