2 Qorontos 1
1 Phaawulos isa fedhii Waaqaatiin ergamaa Kiristoos Yesuus taʼee fi obboleessa keenya Xiimotewos irraa, Gara waldaa kiristaanaa Waaqaa ishee Qorontos jirtuutii fi qulqulloota Akaayaa guutuu keessa jiraatan hundumaatti:
Paul, the apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and brother Timothy, to the church of God which is at Corinth, along with all the saints who are in all Achaia:
2 Abbaa keenya Waaqaa fi Yesuus Kiristoos Gooftaa irraa ayyaannii fi nagaan isiniif haa taʼu.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Waaqnii fi Abbaan Gooftaa keenya Yesuus Kiristoos, Abbaan araaraatii fi Waaqni jajjabina hundaa haa eebbifamu;
Blessed is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all consolation;
4 inni akka nu jajjabina Waaqa biraa arganne sanaan warra dhiphina adda addaa keessa jiran jajjabeessuu dandeenyuuf dhiphina keenya hunda keessatti nu jajjabeessa.
the one comforting us in all our tribulation, in order that we may be able to comfort those in all tribulation, through the consolation with which we ourselves are comforted of God,
5 Akkuma nu dhiphina Kiristoos keessatti baayʼee hirmaannu, akkasuma immoo karaa Kiristoosiin jajjabinni nuu baayʼata.
because as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation through Christ also abounds.
6 Nu yoo dhiphanne jajjabinaa fi fayyina keessaniif taʼa; nu yoo jajjabaanne jajjabina keessaniif taʼa; jajjabinni kunis kan isin yeroo dhiphina nu dhiphannu kana keessa dabartanitti obsaan dhaabachuudhaan argattanii dha.
But if we are troubled it is in behalf of your consolation and salvation; if we are comforted, it is in behalf of your consolation, working in you through the endurance of the same sufferings which we also suffer.
7 Abdiin nu waaʼee keessaniif qabnu cimaa dha; isin akkuma dhiphina keenya keessatti hirmaattan amma immoo jajjabina keenya keessatti akka hirmaattan beeknaatii.
And our hope is stedfast in your behalf; knowing that, as you are the partakers of the sufferings, so you are also of the consolation.
8 Yaa obboloota, isin waaʼee dhiphina biyya Asiyaatti nurra gaʼee akka wallaaltan hin barbaannu. Hamma lubbuudhaan jiraachuuf illee abdii kutannutti dhiphinni baachuudhaaf humna keenyaa ol taʼe nurra gaʼee tureetii.
For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning our affliction taking place in Asia, because we were burthened exceedingly, above our power, so that we despaired even of living:
9 Dhugumaanuu murtiin duʼaa nutti dhagaʼamee turre. Kun garuu akka nu Waaqa warra duʼan kaasutti malee ofii keenyatti hin amananneef taʼe.
but we had the answer of death in ourselves, in order that we might not trust in ourselves, but in God who raised the dead:
10 Inni balaa duʼa akkasii jalaa nu baaseera; nu baasas. Inni ittuma fufee akka nu baasu abdii keenya isa irra kaaʼanneerra.
who delivered us from so great a death, and will deliver: in whom he have hope that he will also yet deliver;
11 Akkuma isin kadhannaa keessaniin nu gargaartan, ayyaana kadhannaa namoota baayʼeetiif deebii taʼee nuu kenname sanaaf namoonni baayʼeen nuuf galateeffatu.
you also cooperating in our behalf in prayer; in order that, the gift which is bestowed upon us from many persons, may through many be a source of thanks given in our behalf.
12 Egaa wanti nu ittiin of jajnu kanaa dha: Akka nu qulqullummaa fi amanamummaa Waaqa biraa argameen fooniin keessumattuu hariiroo isin wajjin qabnuun jiraachaa turre yaadni garaa keenyaa dhugaa nuuf baʼa. Kanas akka ayyaana Waaqaatti goone malee akka ogummaa addunyaatti miti.
For our boasting is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in holiness and purity of God, not in carnal wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have sojourned in the world, and especially towards you.
13 Nu waan isin dubbisuu yookaan hubachuu hin dandeenye tokko illee isinii hin barreessinuutii. Ani akka isin hamma dhumaatti hubattan nan abdadha;
For we do not write other things to you, but those things which you read and know, and I hope that you will know them perfectly:
14 innis akkuma isin gara tokko nu hubattan kana, akka guyyaa Gooftaa Yesuusitti akkuma nu isiniin of jajnu sana isinis nuun of jajuu dandeessan guutummaatti hubattanii dha.
as you have also known us in part, because we are your glorying, as you ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.
15 Anis sababiin waan kana amaneef akka isin ayyaana lammaffaa qabaattaniif jedhee jalqabatti gara keessan dhufuu barbaade.
And in this confidence I wished to come unto you sooner, that you may have a second grace;
16 Ani yeroon Maqedooniyaa dhaqutti isin ilaaluu fi yeroon Maqedooniyaadhaa deebiʼuttis gara keessan dhufee, akka isin yeroo ani Yihuudaa dhaqutti na ergitan barbaade.
and through you to go unto Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and by you to be sent forward into Judea.
17 Ani yeroon waan kana karoorfadhetti akka salphaattin hojjedhee? Yookaan akka yaada fooniitti yeruma tokkotti, “Eeyyee, eeyyee” fi “Waawuu, waawuu” jechuufan karoora baafadhaa ree?
Then wishing this, whether did I use lightness of purpose? or the things which I counsel, do I counsel according to the flesh, in order that it may be with me yes yes and no no?
18 Akkuma Waaqni amanamaa taʼe dubbiin nu isinitti dubbannus “Eeyyee” fi “Waawuu” miti.
But God is faithful, that our word which is to you is not yes and no.
19 Yesuus Kiristoos Ilmi Waaqaa inni nu jechuunis ani, Silwaanosii fi Xiimotewos isin gidduutti lallabne sun, “Eeyyee” fi “Waawuu” hin turreetii; isa keessa “Eeyyeetu” jira.
For Christ Jesus, the Son of God, the one being preached by us, through me and Silvanus and Timothy, was not yes and no, but it was yes in him.
20 Waadaawwan Waaqaa hundinuu Kiristoosiin “Eeyyeedhaatii”. Kanaafuu nu karaa isaatiin ulfina Waaqaatiif “Ameen” jenna.
For so many promises of God, in Him are yes; therefore indeed through him they are Amen unto the glory to God through us.
21 Egaa kan akka nu isin wajjin Kiristoositti jabaannee dhaabannu godhuu fi kan nu dibe Waaqa;
But the one confirming us along with you unto Christ, and having anointed us, is God.
22 innis chaappaa nutti chaappessee, qabdii Hafuura Qulqulluu garaa keenya keessa kaaʼe.
Who also having sealed us, and given us the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
23 Ani garuu isin qusachuudhaaf jecha Qorontositti hin deebine; anis akka inni dhugaa natti baʼuuf Waaqa ofitti nan waama.
But I call God to witness to my soul, that sparing you I did not yet come into Corinth:
24 Nu gammachuu keessaniif isin wajjin hojjenna malee amantii keessan irratti gooftummaa hin qabnu; isin amantiin jabaattanii dhaabattaniitii.
not that we domineer over your faith, but we are fellow-workers of your joy: for by faith you stand.
