< २ कोरिन्थी 7 >
1 प्रियहरू, हामीसँग यी प्रतिज्ञाहरू भएका कारण हाम्रो शरीर र आत्मामा हामीलाई अशुद्ध पार्ने कुराहरूबाट आँफैलाई शुद्ध पारौँ । परमेश्वरको भयमा पवित्रतालाई पछ्याऔँ ।
Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
2 हाम्रा निम्ति ठाउँ बनाओ! हामीले कसैको खराबी गरेका छैनौँ । हामीले कसैलाई हानि पुर्याएका छैनौँ, न त कसैको फाइदा नै लिएका छौँ ।
Open your hearts to us. We wronged no one. We corrupted no one. We took advantage of no one.
3 मैले तिमीहरूलाई दोषी ठहर्याउन यो भनेको होइनँ । किनकि मैले अघि नै भनिसकेको छु कि तिमीहरू हाम्रा हृदयमा छौ, सँगै मर्न र बाँच्नको निम्ति ।
I say this not to condemn you, for I have said before, that you are in our hearts to die together and live together.
4 तिमीहरूमाथि मेरो ठुलो भरोसा छ र म तिमीहरूमा गर्व गर्छु । म सान्त्वनाले भरिएको छु । हाम्रा सबै कष्टमा पनि म आनन्दले भरिएको छु ।
Great is my boldness of speech toward you. Great is my boasting on your behalf. I am filled with comfort. I overflow with joy in all our affliction.
5 हामी माकेडोनिया आउँदा हाम्रो शरीरले आराम पाएन । बरु, बाहिरका सङ्घर्षहरू र भित्रका भयहरूबाट हामी हरतरहले सताइएका थियौँ ।
For even when we had come into Macedonia, our flesh had no relief, but we were afflicted on every side. Fightings were outside. Fear was inside.
6 तर निरुत्साहितहरू लाई सान्त्वना दिनुहुने परमेश्वरले तीतसको आगमनबाट हामीलाई सान्त्वना दिनुभयो ।
Nevertheless, he who comforts the lowly, God, comforted us by the coming of Titus;
7 तिनको आगमनले मात्र हामीलाई परमेश्वरले सान्त्वना दिनुभएन । तर तीतसले तिमीहरूबाट प्राप्त गरेको सान्त्वनाबाट पनि हो । तिनले तिमीहरूको महान् प्रेम, दुःख र मेरो निम्ति तिमीहरूको गहिरो चिन्ताको बारेमा बताए । यसकारण, म अझ धेरै आनन्दित भएँ ।
and not by his coming only, but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you, while he told us of your longing, your mourning, and your zeal for me; so that I rejoiced still more.
8 मेरो पत्रले तिमीहरूलाई दुःखित तुल्याएको भए तापनि म यसको लागि पछुताउँदिनँ । मेरो पत्रले तिमीहरूलाई दुःखित बनाएको मैले देख्दा म पछुताएँ । तर तिमीहरू केही समयको लागि मात्र दुःखित भयौ ।
For though I made you sorry with my letter, I do not regret it, though I did regret it. For I see that my letter made you sorry, though just for a while.
9 तिमीहरू सताइएको कारणले होइन, तर तिमीहरूको दुःखले तिमीहरूलाई पश्चात्तापसम्म डोर्याएको कारणले अब म खुसी छु । तिमीहरूले ईश्वरीय शोकको महसुस गर्यौ । हाम्रो कारण तिमीहरूले कुनै नोक्सानी भोगेनौ ।
I now rejoice, not that you were made sorry, but that you were made sorry to repentance. For you were made sorry in a godly way, that you might suffer loss by us in nothing.
10 किनकि ईश्वरीय शोकले पश्चात्ताप ल्याउँछ जसले पछुतोविना नै मुक्तिको काम पुरा गर्छ । तर सांसारिक शोकले मृत्यु ल्याउँछ ।
For godly sorrow works repentance to salvation, which brings no regret. But the sorrow of the world works death.
11 हेर, यस ईश्वरीय शोकले तिमीहरूमा कति ठुलो सङ्कल्प उत्पन्न गरायो । आफूलाई निर्दोष प्रमाणित गर्न तिमीहरूमा कति ठुलो सङ्कल्प थियो । तिमीहरूका क्रोध, डर, तृष्णा, जोस र न्याय भएको हेर्ने तिमीहरूको इच्छा कति ठुलो! यी सबै कुरामा तिमीहरूले यो विषयमा आफैँलाई निर्दोष प्रमाणित गरेका छौ ।
For look at this very thing, that you were made sorry in a godly way. What diligence it produced in you, what clearing of yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what longing, what zeal, what vindication. In everything you proved yourselves to be innocent in this matter.
12 मैले तिमीहरूलाई लेखे तापनि त्यो खराबीग र्ने वा खराबी भोग्नेको खातिर मैले लेखिनँ । हामीप्रति भएको तिमीहरूको गम्भीरता परमेश्वरको सामु थाहा पाउन सकूँ भनेर मैले लेखेँ ।
So although I wrote to you, I wrote not for his cause that did the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered the wrong, but that your earnest care for us might be revealed in you in the sight of God.
13 यही कारणले हामी उत्साहित हुन्छौँ । हाम्रा सान्त्वनासाथै हामी तीतसको आनन्दमा अझै रमायौँ किनकि तिमीहरूद्वारा तिनको प्राणलाई स्फूर्ति मिलेको छ ।
Therefore we have been comforted. In our comfort we rejoiced the more exceedingly for the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by you all.
14 किनकि तिनीसँग तिमीहरूको बारेमा गर्व गर्दा म शर्माइनँ । यसको विपरीत, जसरी तिमीहरूलाई हामीले भनेका सबै कुरा साँचा थिए, त्यसरी नै तिमीहरूको बारेमा हामीले तीतससँग गरेको गर्व पनि सत्य ठहरियो ।
For if in anything I have boasted to him on your behalf, I was not disappointed. But as we spoke all things to you in truth, so our glorying also which I made before Titus was found to be truth.
15 तिमीहरू सबैको आज्ञाकारिता र तिमीहरूले तिनलाई डर र कम्पसाथ गरेको स्वागत सम्झेर तिमीहरूप्रति तिनको स्नेह अझ बढ्छ ।
His affection is more abundantly toward you, while he remembers all of your obedience, how with fear and trembling you received him.
16 म रमाउँछु, किनकि तिमीहरूमाथि मेरो पूर्ण भरोसा छ ।
I rejoice that in everything I am of good courage concerning you.
