< २ कोरिन्थी 1 >
1 पावल, परमेश्वरको इच्छा अनुसार येशू ख्रीष्टका प्रेरित, र हाम्रा भाइ तिमोथीबाट, कोरिन्थमा भएका परमेश्वरको मण्डली र अखैया प्रान्तमा रहेका सम्पूर्ण विश्वासीहरूलाई ।
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the church of God in Corinth, together with all the saints throughout Achaia:
2 हाम्रा पिता परमेश्वर र प्रभु येशू ख्रीष्टको अनुग्रह र शान्ति तिमीहरूमा रहेको होस् ।
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 हाम्रा पिता परमेश्वर येशू ख्रीष्टलाई प्रशंसा भएको होस् । उहाँ दयाका पिता र सबै सान्त्वनाका परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ ।
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,
4 परमेश्वरले हाम्रा सारा दुःख कष्टमा हामीलाई सान्त्वना दिनुहुन्छ । त्यसैले, हामी पनि दुःखमा परेकाहरूलाई सान्त्वना दिन सक्छौँ । परमेश्वरले हामीलाई सान्त्वना दिनको निम्ति प्रयोग गर्नुभएको सान्त्वनाद्वारा नै हामी अरूलाई सान्त्वना दिन्छौँ ।
who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we can comfort those experiencing any kind of affliction with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.
5 जसरी हाम्रो निम्ति ख्रीष्टको कष्ट प्रशस्त छ, त्यसरी नै ख्रीष्टद्वारा हाम्रो सान्त्वना प्रशस्त हुन्छ ।
For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ.
6 तर यदि हामीले दुःख भोग्यौँ भने यो तिमीहरूका सान्त्वना र उद्धारको निम्ति हो । र यदि हामीले सान्त्वना पायौँ भने यो तिमीहरूको सान्त्वनाको निम्ति हो । तिमीहरू हाम्रो दुःखमा धैर्यसाथ सहभागी हुँदा तिमीहरूको सान्त्वनाले प्रभावकारी रूपले काम गरिरहेको हुन्छ ।
If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation, which helps you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer. And our hope for you is steadfast. If we are comforted, it is also for your comfort and salvation,
7 तिमीहरूको निम्ति हाम्रो आशा दृढ छ । तिमीहरू दुःखमा सहभागी हुँदा सान्त्वनामा पनि सहभागी हुन्छौ भन्ने हामीलाई थाहा छ ।
because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.
8 भाइहरू हो, हामीले एसियामा भोगेका दुःखको बारेमा तिमीहरू अजान रहो भन्ने हामी चाहन्नौँ । हामीले सहन नसक्ने किसिमले हामी मिचिएका थियौँ, यति साह्रो कि हामीले बाँच्ने आशा नै मारेका थियौँ ।
We do not want you to be unaware, brothers, of the affliction we experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself.
9 वास्तवमा, हामीमाथि मृत्युदण्ड थियो । तर त्यो हामी आफैँमा होइन, मृतकहरूलाई जीवन दिनुहुने परमेश्वरमाथि भरोसा गर्न सकौँ भनेर भएको थियो ।
Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But this happened so that we would not rely on ourselves, but on God, who raises the dead.
10 उहाँले हामीलाई त्यस्तो घातक जोखिमबाट बचाउनुभयो र फेरि पनि उहाँले हामीलाई बचाउनुहुनेछ । उहाँले हामीलाई फेरि पनि छुटाउनुहुनेछ भन्ने हामीले उहाँमा आशा राखेका छौँ ।
He rescued us from such a terrible death, and continues to rescue us. We have put our hope in him that he will rescue us yet again
11 उहाँले यसो गर्नुहुनेछ जसरी तिमीहरूले पनि हामीलाई आफ्ना प्रार्थनाद्वारा मदत गर्छौ । त्यसपछि धेरैको प्रार्थनाद्वारा हामीलाई दिइएको अनुग्रही कृपाको लागि धेरैले हाम्रो तर्फबाट धन्यवाद दिनेछन् ।
as you join in helping us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on your behalf for the favor granted to us through the prayers of many.
12 हाम्रो अन्तस्करणको गवाहीमा हामी गर्व गर्छौं । किनकि यो परमेश्वरबाट आउने शुद्ध प्रेरणा र इमानदारीमा छ जसअनुसार हामी यो संसारमा चलेका छौँ । विशेष गरी, हामीले यो तिमीहरूसँग अझ बढी गरेका छौँ, सांसारिक ज्ञानमा होइन, तर परमेश्वरको अनुग्रहमा ।
Now this is the reason for our confidence: Our conscience testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially toward you, with integrity and godly sincerity, not by worldly wisdom, but by the grace of God.
13 हामी तिमीहरूले पढ्न र बुझ्न नसक्ने गरी केही पनि लेख्दैनौँ । म आशा गर्छु, कि तिमीहरूले पूर्ण रूपले बुझ्नेछौ ।
For we are not writing anything to you other than what you can read and understand. And I hope that you will understand completely—
14 जसरी अहिले तिमीहरूले हामीलाई केही मात्रमा बुझ्यौ । येशू ख्रीष्टको दिनमा हामी तिमीहरूका निम्ति गर्व गर्ने कारण बन्नेछौँ, जसरी तिमीहरू हाम्रा कारण बन्नेछौ ।
just as you have understood us in part—that on the day of the Lord Jesus you will be proud of us just as we will be proud of you.
15 यो कुरामा म निर्धक्क भएको कारण, तिमीहरूले दुईवटा भेटको लाभ उठाउन सक भनेर म तिमीहरूकहाँ अगाडि नै आउन चाहन्थेँ ।
Because I was confident of this, I intended to come to you first, so that you would be blessed by a second visit.
16 माकेडोनिया जाँदा तिमीहरूकहाँ आएर भेटघाट गर्ने मैले योजना बनाउँदै थिएँ । माकेडोनियाको यात्रापछि म फेरि तिमीहरूलाई भेट्न चाहन्थेँ, र तिमीहरूले मलाई यहूदियाको बाटो हुँदै पठाएको चाहन्थेँ ।
I wanted to visit you on my way to Macedonia and return to you from Macedonia, and then have you send me on my way to Judea.
17 जब मैले यस तरिकाले सोच्दै थिएँ, तब के म हिच्किचाएँ र? के मैले मानवीय मापनअनुसार योजनाहरू बनाएँ कि मैले एकै समयमा “हो” र “होइन” भनेँ र?
Was I vacillating when I planned to do this? Or do I make my plans in a worldly manner, ready to say “Yes” and “No” at the same time?
18 तर जसरी परमेश्वर विश्वासयोग्य हुनुहुन्छ, हामी एकैसाथ “हो” र “होइन” भन्दैनौँ ।
As surely as God is faithful, our message to you did not waver between “Yes” and “No.”
19 किनकि परमेश्वरका पुत्र येशू ख्रीष्ट जसलाई सिलास, तिमोथी र मैले तिमीहरूमाझ घोषणा गर्यौँ, जो चाहिँ “हो” र “होइन” हुनुहुन्न । बरु, उहाँ सदा “हो” हुनुहुन्छ ।
For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom Silvanus, Timothy, and I preached among you, did not waver between “Yes” and “No.” On the contrary, in him God's answer has always been “Yes.”
20 किनकि परमेश्वरका सबै प्रतिज्ञा उहाँमा “हो” नै हुन्छन् । यसैले, उहाँद्वारा नै हामीले परमेश्वरको महिमालाई “आमेन” भनेका छौँ ।
For in him every one of God's promises is “Yes,” and in him we say “Amen” to the glory of God.
21 अब परमेश्वर जसले हामीलाई तिमीहरूसँग ख्रीष्टमा दरिला पार्नुहुन्छ, उहाँले हामीलाई नियुक्ति गर्नुभयो ।
Now it is God who establishes us with you in Christ and who anointed us.
22 उहाँले आफ्नो छाप हामीमा लगाउनुभयो र हामीलाई पछि दिने कुराको बैनाको रूपमा हाम्रो हृदयमा पवित्र आत्मा दिनुभयो ।
He has also sealed us and put his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.
23 बरु, मैले परमेश्वरलाई मेरो गवाहीको लागि पुकारेँ । त्यसैले, तिमीहरूलाई बचाउन सकूँ भनेर म कोरिन्थमा आइनँ ।
I call upon God as a witness against me, that the reason I did not return to Corinth was to spare you.
24 तिमीहरूको विश्वास कस्तो हुनुपर्छ भनेर हामीले नियन्त्रण गर्ने प्रयास गरेको कारण यसो भएको होइन । बरु, हामी तिमीहरूको आनन्दको निम्ति तिमीहरूसँग काम गरिरहेका छौँ जसरी तिमीहरू आफ्नो विश्वासमा अटल रहन्छौ ।
Not that we rule over your faith; rather, we work with you for your joy, because by faith you stand firm.
