2 Korintiana 4
1 Aa kanao anay o fitoroñañe zao, ie niferenaiñañe, le tsy mamoe’ay.
Therefore, seeing we have this ministry, even as we obtained mercy, we don’t faint.
2 Toe rarà’ay ze sata naetake ty amy hasalara’ey; tsy mipiapia am-pamañahiañe vaho tsy mengohe’ay o tsaran’ Añahareo, fe am-palangesañe ty hatò ro anolora’ay vatañe mb’am-pitsakorea’ ze hene ondaty am-pivazohoan’ Añahare.
But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by the manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.
3 Aa naho toe mikolopoke ty talili-soa’ay, le mikolopoke amo mikoromakeo,
Even if our Good News is veiled, it is veiled in those who are dying,
4 fa nampigoa’ ty ndrañaharen-tsa toy ty fivetsevetse’ o tsi-miantokeo, tsy hahaisake ty fireandrea’ ty talili-soan’ enge’ i Norizañey, i vintan’ Añaharey. (aiōn g165)
in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn on them. (aiōn g165)
5 Tsy ty vata’ay ro taroñe’ay, fa Iesoà Norizañey ho Talè, le zahay ro fetrek’oro’ areo ty am’ Iesoà.
For we don’t preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake,
6 I Andrianañahare nanao ty hoe: Hipasasàke amo ieñeo ty zava ro mampireandreañe añ’arofo’ay ao i hazavam-paharendrehañe ty engen’ Añahare mitapasàke an-dahara’ Iesoà Norizañey.
seeing it is God who said, “Light will shine out of darkness,” who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7 Ie ty vara’ay mihaja an-tsajoa-tane ao, hampidodea te boak’ aman’ Añahare ty hara’elahi’ i haozarañey fa tsy hirik’ ama’ay.
But we have this treasure in clay vessels, that the exceeding greatness of the power may be of God and not from ourselves.
8 Mañarikatoke anay ty famorekekeañe, fe tsy demoke; malovilovy, fe tsy mamoe aiñe,
We are pressed on every side, yet not crushed; perplexed, yet not to despair;
9 samporeraheñe fa tsy naforintseñe; zinevo, fa tsy rotsake—
pursued, yet not forsaken; struck down, yet not destroyed;
10 nainai’e endese’ay am-batañe ty havilasi’ Iesoà, soa te halange an-tsandri’ay ka ty havelo’ Iesoà.
always carrying in the body the putting to death of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.
11 Le nainai’e seseheñe havetrake ty amy Iesoà zahay veloñe, soa te hiboak’ an-tsandri’ay mora mihomakeo ka ty havelo’ Iesoà.
For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus may be revealed in our mortal flesh.
12 Aa le mitromake ama’ay ao ty fihomahañe, le ama’areo ty haveloñe.
So then death works in us, but life in you.
13 Manahake ty nisokirañe ty hoe: Niantoke iraho, vaho nivolañe, Toe miato ka zahay nampatokisa’ i Arofoy vaho mitaroñe,
But having the same spirit of faith, according to that which is written, “I believed, and therefore I spoke.” We also believe, and therefore we also speak,
14 fohiñe te i Nampitroatse i Talè Iesoày ro hampitroatse anay miharo amy Iesoà ka, vaho hampiatrefe’e mitraoke ama’ areo zahay.
knowing that he who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus, and will present us with you.
15 Inahareo ty nanoañe i he’e rezay, soa t’ie fa niboele ami’ty maro ty hasoa le handopatse ho ami’ty engen’ Añahare ty fañandriañañe.
For all things are for your sakes, that the grace, being multiplied through the many, may cause the thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God.
16 Aa le tsy milesa zahay, fa ndra te mihamomoke ty sandri’ay alafe’e, mihavao boak’ andro ty an-tro’ay ao.
Therefore we don’t faint, but though our outward person is decaying, yet our inward person is renewed day by day.
17 Le i hasotriañe maivañe tsy maremaretse toiy ro mamokatse engeñe tsy ri’e mavesatse tsy amañ’ohatse. (aiōnios g166)
For our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory, (aiōnios g166)
18 Le tsy o isam-pihainoo ty biribirie’ay fa o tsy isakeo, amy te mihelañe o raha isakeo, fe tsy ho modo nainai’e o tsy isam-pihainoo. (aiōnios g166)
while we don’t look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal. (aiōnios g166)
