2 Qorontos 7

1 Kanaafuu yaa jaallatamtoota, nu waan waadaawwan kanneen qabnuuf kottaa Waaqa sodaachaa qulqullina fiixaan baasuudhaan waan foonii fi hafuura xureessu hundumaa irraa of qulqulleessinaa.

These therefore having promises, beloved, we may cleanse ourselves from every defilement of flesh and spirit perfecting holiness in [the] fear of God.

2 Isin garaa nuu balʼadhaa. Nu nama tokko illee hin yakkine; nama tokko illee amala hin balleessine; nama tokko illee gowwoomsinee waa irraa hin fudhanne.

do make room for us; no [one] we have wronged, no [one] we have corrupted, no [one] we have exploited.

3 Kana jechuun koos isinitti muruuf miti; nu isin wajjin duʼuu fi jiraachuuf akka isin garaa keenya keessa jirtan ani duraan dursee himeeraatii.

For condemnation not I speak; I have before said for that in the hearts of us you are for [us] to die together and to live together.

4 Ani guddiseen isin amanadha; guddisees isiniin nan boona. Ani baayʼee jajjabeeffameera; rakkina keenya hunda keessattis gammachuun koo hamma hin qabu.

Great [is] my boldness toward you, great my boasting on behalf of you; I have been filled with encouragement, I overabound with joy upon all the affliction of us.

5 Yeroo Maqedooniyaa dhufnettis nu qixa hundaan dhiphachaa turre malee foon keenya kun boqonnaa hin arganne; alaan lola, keessaan immoo sodaatu nurra ture.

And for when were coming we into Macedonia none (did have *NK(o)*) rest the flesh of us but in every [way] we are being pressed: outside conflicts, within fears.

6 Waaqni warra gaddan jajjabeessu garuu dhufaatii Tiitootiin nu jajjabeesse;

But the [One] comforting the downcast comforted us God by the coming of Titus;

7 kun immoo isin isa jajjabeessuu keessaniinis malee dhufaatii isaa qofaan miti. Innis na yaaduu keessan, gadduu keessan, hinaaffaa isin naaf qabdan nutti himeera; kanaafuu ani hamma duraa caalaa gammadeera.

not only now by the coming of him, but also by the comfort with which he was comforted as to you relating to us your earnest desire, your mourning, your zeal for me, so as for me [the] more to rejoice.

8 Ani yoon xalayaa kootiin isin gaddisiise illee waan kana gochuu kootiif hin gaabbu. Ani yoon gaabbe illee akka xalayaan sun isin gaddisiise nan hubadha; taʼus isin gaddisiisuun isaa yeruma gabaabaaf;

For if even I have grieved you in the letter, not I do regret [it]; If even I was regreting [it], I see indeed that the letter that if even for an hour grieved you,

9 amma garuu sababii isin gadditaniif utuu hin taʼin sababii gaddi keessan gara qalbii jijjiirrachuutti isin geesseef ani nan gammada. Isin akka fedhii Waaqaatti gadditaniitii; kanaafuu isin karaa kamiin iyyuu nuun hin miidhamne.

Now I rejoice, not that you were grieved, but that you were grieved unto repentance; you were grieved for according to God, so that in nothing you may suffer loss through us.

10 Gaddi akka fedhii Waaqaatti taʼu qalbii jijjiirrannaa gara fayyinaatti nama geessu fida malee gaabbii hin fidu; gaddi akka fedhii addunyaatti taʼu garuu duʼa fida.

The for according to God grief repentance to salvation without regret (produces, *N(k)O*) and the of the world grief death produces.

11 Gaddi akka fedhii Waaqaatti taʼe kun tattaaffii akkamii, dandeettii falmachuu akkamii, dheekkamsa akkamii, sodaa akkamii, namaa yaaduu akkamii, hinaaffaa qajeelaa akkamii, murtii qajeelaa akkamii isin keessatti akka uume mee ilaalaa! Isin waan kana irratti karaa hundaan akka qulqulloota taatan mirkaneeffattaniirtu.

Behold for this very same [thing] according to God to have been grieved (by you *K*) how much has produced in you earnestness, but instead reasoned defense, but indignation, but fear, but longing, but zeal, but vindication? In everything you have proved yourselves innocent to be (in *k*) this matter.

12 Kanaafuu ani isinii barreessu iyyuu, isin fuula Waaqaa duratti hammam akka nuuf of kennitan akka ofuma keessaniin argitaniif malee sababii namicha nama miidheetiif yookaan sababii namicha miidhameetiif miti.

So if even I wrote to you, [it was] not for the sake of the [one] having done wrong (but *O*) nor for the sake of the [one] having suffered wrong, but rather for the sake of being revealed the earnestness of you which [is] for us to you before God.

13 Nuus kana hundaanuu ni jajjabaanna. Jajjabina keenyatti dabalees keessumattuu Tiitoon gammaduu isaa arginee gammanneerra; hafuurri isaa isin hundaan haaromfameeraatii.

On account of this we have been comforted. Besides also the comfort (of us *N(K)O*) [the] more abundantly (now *k*) rather we have rejoiced at the joy of Titus, because has been refreshed the spirit of him by all of you,

14 Ani isiniin isatti booneen ture; isinis na hin qaanessine. Garuu akkuma wanni nu isinitti himne sun hundi dhugaa taʼe, waaʼee keessan Tiitootti boonuun keenyas akkasuma dhugaa taʼuun isaa mirkanaaʼeera.

For if anything to him about you I have boasted, not I was put to shame, but as all things in truth we have spoken to you, so also the boasting of us to Titus, truth became;

15 Innis ajajamuu hunda keessanii akkasumas sodaa fi hollannaa isin ittiin isa simattan sana yeroo yaadatutti jaalalli inni isiniif qabu isa durii caalaa dabalama.

And the affections of him more abundantly toward you are remembering the of all of you obedience, how with fear and trembling you received him.

16 Ani abdii guutuu isin irraa qaba; kanaafuu nan gammada.

I rejoice that in everything I am confident in you.
