2 Korintiana 1

1 Paoly, Apostolin’ i Kristy Jesosy noho ny sitrapon’ Andriamanitra, ary Timoty rahalahy, mamangy ny fiangonan’ Andriamanitra izay any Korinto mbamin’ ny olona masìna rehetra eran’ i Akaia:

Paul, the apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and brother Timothy, to the church of God which is at Corinth, along with all the saints who are in all Achaia:

2 ho aminareo anie ny fahasoavana sy ny fiadanana avy amin’ Andriamanitra Raintsika sy Jesosy Kristy Tompo.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ.

3 Isaorana anie Andriamanitra, Rain’ i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika, Rain’ ny famindram-po sady Andriamanitry ny fampiononana rehetra,

Blessed is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all consolation;

4 Izay mampionona anay amin’ ny fahorianay rehetra mba hahaizanay mampionona izay rehetra mitondra fahoriana kosa, anin’ ny fampiononana izay ampiononan’ Andriamanitra anay.

the one comforting us in all our tribulation, in order that we may be able to comfort those in all tribulation, through the consolation with which we ourselves are comforted of God,

5 Fa araka ny haben’ ny fijalian’ i Kristy mihatra aminay no haben’ ny fampiononana anay kosa amin’ ny alalan’ i Kristy.

because as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation through Christ also abounds.

6 Ary raha ampahorina izahay, dia ho fampiononana sy famonjena anareo izany; ary raha ampiononina izahay, dia ho fampiononana anareo izany, ka miasa amin’ ny fiaretanareo fahoriana mitovy indrindra amin’ izay entinay.

But if we are troubled it is in behalf of your consolation and salvation; if we are comforted, it is in behalf of your consolation, working in you through the endurance of the same sufferings which we also suffer.

7 Ary miorina tsara ny fanantenanay anareo, satria fantatray fa tahaka ny iombonanareo ny fahoriana no iombonanareo ny fampiononana koa.

And our hope is stedfast in your behalf; knowing that, as you are the partakers of the sufferings, so you are also of the consolation.

8 Fa tsy tianay tsy ho fantatrareo, ry rahalahy, ny amin’ ny fahoriana izay nanjo anay tany Asia, fa novesarana indrindra mihoatra noho ny zakanay izahay, ka dia efa nafoinay na dia ny ainay aza;

For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning our affliction taking place in Asia, because we were burthened exceedingly, above our power, so that we despaired even of living:

9 eny, tsy nanampo izay ho velona intsony izahay, mba tsy hitokianay amin’ ny tenanay, fa amin’ Andriamanitra, Izay manangana ny maty ihany.

but we had the answer of death in ourselves, in order that we might not trust in ourselves, but in God who raised the dead:

10 Ary Izy no nahafaka anay tamin’ izao fahafatesana lehibe izao, ary mbola hanafaka ihany; eny, Izy no antenainay fa mbola hanafaka anay koa,

who delivered us from so great a death, and will deliver: in whom he have hope that he will also yet deliver;

11 satria ianareo koa miara-miasa ho anay amin’ ny fivavahanareo mba hisaoran’ ny maro ny aminay noho ny fahasoavana azonay tamin’ ny nataon’ ny maro.

you also cooperating in our behalf in prayer; in order that, the gift which is bestowed upon us from many persons, may through many be a source of thanks given in our behalf.

12 Fa izao no ataonay ho voninahitray: ny fieritreretanay no vavolombelona fa tamin’ ny fahamasinana sy ny fahadiovam-po avy amin’ Andriamanitra, tsy tamin’ ny fahendren’ ny nofo, fa tamin’ ny fahasoavan’ Andriamanitra, no nitondranay tena teo amin’ izao tontolo izao, mainka fa teo aminareo.

For our boasting is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in holiness and purity of God, not in carnal wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have sojourned in the world, and especially towards you.

13 Fa tsy manoratra teny hafa aminareo izahay, afa-tsy izay vakinareo na izay fantatrareo; ary manantena aho fa mbola ho fantatrareo ihany hatramin’ ny farany aza,

For we do not write other things to you, but those things which you read and know, and I hope that you will know them perfectly:

14 toy ny efa fantapantatrareo ihany fa voninahitrareo izahay, dia tahaka anareo kosa no voninahitray amin’ ny andron’ i Jesosy Tompontsika.

as you have also known us in part, because we are your glorying, as you ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.

15 Ary tamin’ izao fahatokiana izao dia nikasa hankatỳ aminareo aloha aho (mba hahazoanareo soa fanindroany),

And in this confidence I wished to come unto you sooner, that you may have a second grace;

16 ary hankany Makedonia aho, raha avy atỳ aminareo, ary dia vao hiverina ho atỳ aminareo indray raha avy any Makedonia, ary mba haterinareo ho any Jodia.

and through you to go unto Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and by you to be sent forward into Judea.

17 Koa raha nikasa izany aho, moa nanao kitoatoa va aho? Ary izay zavatra kasaiko, moa kasaiko araka ny nofo va, mba hanaovako eny eny foana, sy tsia tsia foana?

Then wishing this, whether did I use lightness of purpose? or the things which I counsel, do I counsel according to the flesh, in order that it may be with me yes yes and no no?

18 Fa raha mahatoky koa Andriamanitra, ny teninay taminareo dia tsy eny sy tsia;

But God is faithful, that our word which is to you is not yes and no.

19 fa ny Zanak’ Andriamanitra, dia Jesosy Kristy, Izay notorinay teo aminareo, dia izaho sy Silasy ary Timoty, dia tsy eny sy tsia, fa ao aminy dia eny ihany.

For Christ Jesus, the Son of God, the one being preached by us, through me and Silvanus and Timothy, was not yes and no, but it was yes in him.

20 Fa na firy na firy ny teny fikasan’ Andriamanitra, dia ao aminy ny eny, ary amin’ ny alalany koa ny Amena, ho voninahitr’ Andriamanitra amin’ ny ataonay.

For so many promises of God, in Him are yes; therefore indeed through him they are Amen unto the glory to God through us.

21 Fa Izay mampitoetra anay mbaminareo ao amin’ i Kristy sady nanosotra antsika dia Andriamanitra,

But the one confirming us along with you unto Christ, and having anointed us, is God.

22 Izay nanisy tombo-kase antsika koa ka nanome ny Fanahy ho santatra ato am-pontsika.

Who also having sealed us, and given us the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

23 Ary izaho miantso an’ Andriamanitra ho vavolombelona ny amin’ ny fanahiko, fa ny fialàko nenina aminareo ihany no tsy mbola nankanesako tatỳ Korinto.

But I call God to witness to my soul, that sparing you I did not yet come into Corinth:

24 Kanefa tsy mihambo ho tompon’ ny finoanareo izahay, fa mpiara-miasa hampandroso ny fifalianareo, satria finoana no itoeranareo.

not that we domineer over your faith, but we are fellow-workers of your joy: for by faith you stand.
