2 Korintiana 2
1 Ie amy zao, tampakevetse amako t’ie tsy homb’ama’areo mb’eo aman’anahelo;
But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in heaviness.
2 fa naho izaho ty mampihontoke anahareo, ia ka ty hampiehake ahy naho tsy i nampanaheloekoo?
For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same who is made sorry by me?
3 Ty nanokirako izay, le he te izaho homb’eo, ro mioremeñe amo ho nampirebek’ ahikoo; fa atokisako ama’areo iaby te ze mahafale ahy ro mahafale anahareo iaby.
And I wrote this same to you, lest, coming I should have sorrow from them by whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is [the joy] of you all.
4 Toe an-kaloviloviañe naho fikoretan-tro naho ranomaso maro ty nanokirako, tsy te hampañore, fa ty hampandrendreke anahareo ty fikokoako miheotse.
For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly to you.
5 Aa naho teo ty nampañore, le tsy izaho ty nampanaheloe’e, fe, (tsy mone ho losoreko) mete niorea’ areo iaby.
But if any hath caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all.
6 Fa nahaeneke indatiy i fandilovañe nipaoha’ i màroy azey.
Sufficient to such a man [is] this punishment, which [was inflicted] by many.
7 Ie amy zao, soa re te ihevèa’ areo naho añohòa’ areo, tsy mone t’ie ho opoe’ ty hontoke.
So that on the other hand, ye [ought] rather to forgive [him], and comfort [him], lest perhaps such one should be swallowed up with excessive sorrow.
8 Aa le osiheko, te ho vente’areo ama’e ty fikokoa’ areo.
Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm [your] love towards him.
9 Ty nisokirako, le ty hitsoke anahareo hera mete mivohotse ndra aman’ inoñ’ inoñe.
For to this end also I wrote, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye are obedient in all things.
10 Aa le ze ihevea’ areo ro iheveako ka. Le ze napoko—naho toe eo ty ho niheveañe, le fa niheveako añatrefa’ i Norizañey ty ama’ areo,
To whom ye forgive any thing, I [forgive] also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave [it], for your sakes [I forgave it], in the person of Christ;
11 tsy mone hamañahy antika i mpañìnjey, itika tsy bahimo amo sata’eo.
Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
12 Ie nivotrake e Troasy añe iraho ty amy talili-soa’ i Norizañeiy, le nisokake ho ahiko, amy Talè ao, i lalañey,
Furthermore, when I came to Troas to [preach] the gospel of Christ, and a door was opened to me by the Lord,
13 fe tsy nazava ty troko, amy te tsy nitreako t’i Titosy rahalahiko. Aa le nangata-dalañe am’iereo vaho nionjomb’e Makedonia mb’eo.
I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother; but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.
14 Andriañeñe t’i Andrianañahare, mpiaolo anay am-pandrebahañe nainai’e amy Norizañey, naho aboele’e añama’ay ty harifondrifo’ ty fahafohinañe aze tok’ aia tok’ aia.
Now thanks [be] to God, who always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savor of his knowledge by us in every place.
15 Fa aman’ Añahare zahay ro hamañi’ i Norizañey amo mirombakeo naho amo mikoromakeo;
For we are to God a sweet savor of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:
16 amy raikey ty haimbon-kavilasy ho am-pihomahañe, le amy raikey ty harifondrifon-kavelo ho aman-kaveloñe vaho ia ty mahatafetetse izay?
To the one [we are] the savor of death to death; and to the other the savor of life to life. And who [is] sufficient for these things?
17 Tsy manahake i maro mandetake i tsaran’ Añahareiy zahay; fe ami’ty do’e aman’ Añahare naho amy Norizañey, añatrefan’ Añahare ro itaroña’ay.
For we are not as many, who corrupt the word of God: but as from sincerity, but as from God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.
