2 Qorontos 4
1 Kanaafuu nu araara Waaqaatiin tajaajila kana waan qabnuuf abdii hin kutannu.
Therefore having this ministry, as we have obtained mercy, we faint not;
2 Nu waan dhoksaa taʼee fi waan nama qaanessu dhiifneerra; namas hin gowwoomsinu; dubbii Waaqaas hin micciirru. Garuu dhugaa ifatti baafnee dubbachuudhaan fuula Waaqaa duratti qalbii nama hundumaatti of dhiʼeessina.
but we lay aside the hidden things of disgrace, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but in the manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every conscience of men, before God.
3 Wangeelli keenya yoo haguugame illee warra baduutti jiran jalaa haguugama;
But if indeed our gospel is hidden, it is hidden with those who are lost:
4 Waaqni addunyaa kanaa akka namoonni hin amanin ifa wangeela ulfina Kiristoos isa fakkaattii Waaqaa taʼe sanaa arguu hin dandeenyeef qalbii isaanii jaamseera. (aiōn g165)
in whom the god of this age has blinded the minds of those who believe not, in order that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, may not shine on them. (aiōn g165)
5 Nu akka Yesuus Kiristoos Gooftaa taʼe lallabna malee of hin lallabnu; nu mataan keenya Yesuusiif jennee tajaajiltoota keessan.
For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.
6 Waaqni, “Dukkana keessaa ifni haa ifu” jedhe sun akka fuula Kiristoos irraa ifa beekumsa ulfina Waaqaa nuu kennuuf ifa isaa garaa keenya keessatti ibseeraatii.
Because God is the one, having said; Out of the darkness the light shall shine, which shone in our hearts, to the enlightenment of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.
7 Garuu akka humni waan hunda caalu kun Waaqa irraa malee nu biraa hin dhufin argisiisuuf nu badhaadhummaa kana qodaa suphee keessaa qabna.
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, in order that the excellency of the power, may be of God, and not of us;
8 Nu karaa hundaan ni dhiibamna; garuu hin caccabnu; ni burjaajofna; garuu abdii hin kutannu;
in everything being troubled, but not in difficulties incorrigible; being at a loss, but not utterly at a loss;
9 ni ariʼatamna, garuu hin gatamnu; lafaan dhaʼamna, garuu hin badnu.
being persecuted, but not forsaken; being cast down, but not destroyed;
10 Akka jireenyi Yesuus dhagna keenyaan mulʼifamuuf nu yeroo hunda duʼa Yesuus dhagna keenyatti baannee deemna.
always bearing about the dying of Jesus in our body, in order that the life of Jesus may also be made manifest in our bodies.
11 Nu warri lubbuun jirru akka jireenyi isaa foon keenya kan duʼu keessaan mulʼifamuuf yeroo hunda Yesuusiif jennee duʼatti dabarfamnee kennamnaatii.
For we while living are always being delivered up to death for the sake of Jesus, in order that the life of Jesus may be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
12 Egaa duuti nu keessatti hojjeta; jireenyi immoo isin keessatti hojjeta.
So that death works in us, but life in you.
13 “Ani amaneera; kanaafis dubbadheera” jedhamee barreeffameera. Nu immoo sababii hafuura amantii sanaan ni amanna; kanaafis ni dubbanna;
But having the same spirit of faith, according to that which has been written, I believed, therefore I also spoke; and we believe, therefore we also speak;
14 inni Gooftaa Yesuusin warra duʼan keessaa kaase sun nuus Yesuus wajjin kaasee isin wajjinis fuula isaa duratti akka nu dhiʼeessu ni beekna.
knowing that the one having raised up the Lord Jesus will also raise us along with Jesus, and present us with you.
15 Ayyaanni namoota hedduu waliin gaʼaa jiru kun ulfina Waaqaatiif galata guutee dhangalaʼu akka fiduuf wanni kun hundi buʼaa keessaniif taʼe.
For all things are for your sakes, in order that the grace, overflowing with thanksgiving through many, may abound unto the glory of God.
16 Kanaafuu nu abdii hin kutannu. Yoo namummaan keenya inni alaan mulʼatu dhumaa deeme iyyuu, namummaan keenya inni keessaa garuu guyyuma guyyaan haaromfamaa deema.
Therefore we faint not; but if indeed our external man perishes, yet our internal man is renewed day by day.
17 Dhiphinni keenya inni salphaanii fi yeroodhaaf turu kun ulfina bara baraa kan waan hunda caalu nuuf fida. (aiōnios g166)
For the light burden of our affliction, which is evanescent, is working out for us an eternal weight of glory according to hyperbole unto hyperbole; (aiōnios g166)
18 Kanaafuu nu waan hin mulʼanne ilaalla malee waan mulʼatu hin ilaallu. Wanti mulʼatu waan yeroo ti; wanti hin mulʼanne garuu waan bara baraatii. (aiōnios g166)
we not looking at the things which are visible, but the things which are invisible; for the visible things are temporary, but the invisible things are eternal. (aiōnios g166)
