2 Korintiana 11
1 Ee te ho vave’ areo hey o hagegeako—ehe ivaveo.
I could wish that you would put up with a little of my foolishness, but indeed you already are.
2 Ie farahieko am-parahin’ Añahare, naho nampañengaeko ty Rañandria, hitolorako ho somondrara miehañe amy Norizañey.
For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy, because I betrothed you to one man to present you to Christ as a pure virgin.
3 Fe mahahembañe ahy, ke, hambañe amy namañahia’ i mereñey t’i Haova amy hakalitaha’eiy ty hañamengoha’e ty hatso-po’areo mañeva i Norizañey.
But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve with his cunning, so your minds may be corrupted from the integrity that is in Christ.
4 Aa naho miheo mb’eo ty mitsey Iesoà ila’ i nitaroña’aiy, ndra andrambesa’ areo fañahy tsy nirambese’ areo ndra talili-soa ila’ i natokisa’ areoy, hera hiantoke.
For if someone comes and preaches another ‘Jesus’ whom we did not preach, or you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you easily put up with it.
5 Ataoko te tsy ambane’ o Firàheñe mitiotiotseo aman-dra’ inoñe iraho,
Now I consider that I am not at all inferior to the very best apostles.
6 fa ndra te tsy mahafilañoñe, tsy zay an-kahilala, toe fa nampalangese’ay ama’ areo ze he’e.
Though I may not be a trained speaker, I do have knowledge—but we have been fully manifested to you in all things.
7 Hera nandilatse t’ie nirèke hañonjonañe anahareo, amy nitaroñako tsy amam-bily i talili-soan’ Añaharey?
Or did I commit a sin in humbling self so that you might be exalted, in that I proclaimed God's Gospel to you free of charge?
8 Toe nikamereko o Fivory ila’eo, ie nandrambesam-pañehañe hitoroñako anahareo.
I ‘robbed’ other congregations, receiving support from them so as to serve you,
9 Naho teo ty nipaiako ama’ areo, tsy ho nampivavèko ndra ia’ia, fa ie nihirik’ e Makedonia añe o rolongoo, le hene nihenefa’ iareo i nipaiakoy. Toe fonga nifoneñako tsy hampijiny anahareo vaho mbe hambenako.
and when I was with you and in need, I did not burden anyone; because the brothers who came from Macedonia supplied my need. Yes, I kept myself from being a burden to you in anything, and will keep on.
10 Kanao amako ty hatò’ i Norizañey le tsy hampitsiñeñe am-paripari’ i Akaia ao i firengetañe amakoy.
The truth of Christ is in me: this boasting will not be silenced in me in the regions of Achaia.
11 Fa manao akore? Tsy kokoako hao nahareo? Arofoanan’ Añahare!
Why? Because I do not love you? God knows!
12 Fa ho toloñeko avao o fanoekoo, soa te haitoko ty fijohaña’ o mpieva ho hambañe ama’ay amy firoharohà’ iareoio.
Further, I will keep on doing what I do in order to cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be considered equal with us in the things of which they boast.
13 Toe firàhem-bande, mpamañahy an-tsata, misare Firàhe’ i Norizañey.
Such men are really false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into ‘apostles’ of Christ.
14 Tsy ilatsañe! Fa misare anjelin-kazavàñe ka i mpañìnjey.
And no wonder, because Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.
15 Aa le tsy mahasovoke te misare mpitoron-kavantañañe o mpitoro’eo, fa hañeva o sata’eo ty figadoña’ iareo.
So it is no great thing if his servants also masquerade as ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.
16 Indraeko ty hoe: Ee t’ie tsy hatao seretse, fe naho tsie, le ndra te minè, rambeso avao hisengeako betebeteke.
Again I say, let no one think me a fool. But should anyone do so, at least receive me as a fool, that I also may boast a little bit.
17 O volañeko zao, tsy ty amy Talè fa am-pirengean-dagola o fahavaniako mitreñeo.
What I am going to say I do not say according to the Lord, but as though foolishly, in this confident boasting.
18 Kanao maro ty mirenge amy haondati’ey, le hirenge ka.
Since many are boasting according to the flesh, I will too
19 Toe leo’ areo mahihitseo an-kafaleañe ty minè.
(for you put up with fools gladly, being so wise yourselves!).
20 Lefe’ areo ka te ondevozeñe, te abotseke, te haramamoeñe, te irengevohañe, te tampifieñe am-piambina.
In fact, you even put up with someone who enslaves you, who ‘devours’ you, who takes advantage, who exalts himself, who beats on your face!
21 An-kasalarañe ty iantofako te naleme; f’ie amy ze ahavania’ ondaty hirenge aman-dra inoñ’ inoñe, (toe mivavañoake) le mahasibeke ka.
Is it disrespectful to say that we were ‘weak’? In whatever anyone is bold (I speak foolishly), I am bold also.
22 Hebreo v’iereo? Izaho ka! Nte Israele hao? Izaho ka! Tarira’ i Abraàme hao? Izaho ka!
Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they descendants of Abraham? So am I.
23 Mpitoro’ i Norizañey v’iereoo? (reha’ ty tondreñe), lombolombo’ iareo iraho: nilosoreko am-pitromahañe, nilikoareko am-pandrohizañe, pinisopiso tsy amañ’ohatse; beteke am-pihembañem-pihomahañe;
Are they ministers of Christ? (I'm being irrational) I am more: in labors more abundantly, in beatings beyond count, in prison more frequently, in ‘deaths’ often—
24 In-dime te niazoko amo Tehodao i efa-polo-poke-raikey.
five times from the Jews I received the ‘forty lashes minus one’;
25 Dinabo’ ty doda in-telo; finetsa-bato indraike; nijon-dakañe naho nijoroboñe in-telo; nahamodo ty andro naho haleñe raike an-driak’ ao;
three times I was beaten with rods; once I was stoned; three times I was shipwrecked (I spent twenty-four hours in the open sea)—
26 beteke, an-dia lava; niatre feh’ ohatse an-tsaka ao; nampihembañe’ o malasoo, niatre-boiñe aman-drofokoko; niatre-doza amo kilakila ondatio, tendre-kankàñe an-drova, hekoheko am-patrambey, varata an-driak’ ao, naho feh’ ohatse amo longo anìfe’eo;
in frequent journeys, in danger from rivers, in danger from robbers, in danger from my countrymen, in danger from Gentiles, in danger in cities, in danger in wildernesses, in danger in the sea, in danger among false brothers;
27 nimokotse am-pitromahañe naho nanivontivoñe; haleñe maro an-tsareke, naran-drano naho kerè, beteke nifeake tsy aman-kàne, nilonjetse vaho nihalo;
in toil and hardship, in many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, in frequent fastings, in cold and nakedness—
28 mandikoatse i alafe’e rezay, le manindry ahy lomoñandro ty fiatrafako o hene Fivorio.
quite apart from the other things, my daily disturbances, my concern for all the congregations.
29 Ia ty maifoifo te izaho tsy midazidazitse? Ia ty azizin-draha t’ie tsy mipolepoletse?
Who is weak, and I do not feel it? Who is caused to stumble, and I do not burn with indignation?
30 Aa naho tsy mahay tsy hirengetse iraho, le hisengèko o hakepehakoo.
Well, if I must boast, I will boast of the things that concern my weakness.
31 Arofoanan’ Añahare Rae’ i Talè Iesoà Norizañey, i andriañeñe nainai’ey, te tsy mavande iraho. (aiōn g165)
The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying. (aiōn g165)
32 Ie te Damaskose ao, le nampamandroñe’ ty ragova fehe’ i Areta mpanjakay i rova Damaskosey, hitsepak’ ahy;
In Damascus the governor under King Aretas was guarding the city of the Damascenes, wanting to arrest me;
33 le nazotso an-kàroñe boak’an-dalan-kede amy mànday iraho vaho nipoliotse am-pità’e.
but I was lowered in a basket through a window in the wall and escaped from his hands.
