2 Kolinitō 13
1 Ko hono liunga tolu eni ʻo ʻeku ʻalu atu kiate kimoutolu. “ʻI he ngutu ʻoe fakamoʻoni ʻe toko ua pe toko tolu ʻe fakamoʻoni ʻae lea kotoa pē.”
This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.
2 Kuo ʻosi ʻeku tala peau sinaki tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻo hangē kuo u ʻi ai, ko hono liunga ua; pea ʻi heʻeku mamaʻo ni, ʻoku ou tohi atu kiate kinautolu naʻe fai angahala ʻi muʻa, pea mo hono toe kotoa pē, kapau te u toe ʻalu atu, ʻe ʻikai te u fakasiʻisiʻi:
I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them which heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare:
3 Koeʻuhi ʻoku mou kumi ʻae fakamoʻoni ki he lea ʻa Kalaisi ʻiate au, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai vaivai kiate kimoutolu, ka ʻoku mālohi ʻiate kimoutolu.
Since ye seek a proof of the Messiah speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.
4 He neongo naʻe tutuki ia ki he ʻakau ko e meʻa ʻi he vaivai, ka ʻoku moʻui ia ʻi he mālohi ʻoe ʻOtua. He ʻoku mau vaivai foki mo ia, ka temau moʻui mo ia ʻi he mālohi ʻoe ʻOtua kiate kimoutolu.
For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of YHWH. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of YHWH toward you.
5 ʻEke kiate kimoutolu, pe ʻoku mou ʻi he tui; ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakimoutolu. ʻIkai ʻoku mou ʻilo, ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻe Sisu Kalaisi, ʻo kapau kuo ʻikai ʻahiʻahiʻi mo siʻaki ʻakimoutolu?
Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Yahushua the Messiah is in you, except ye be reprobates?
6 Ka ʻoku ʻamusiaange ʻe au te mou ʻilo ʻoku ʻikai ko e kau siʻaki ʻakimautolu.
But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates.
7 Ko eni, ʻoku mau kole ki he ʻOtua, ke ʻoua naʻa mou fai ha kovi; ʻo ʻikai pe ke fakaongolelei ai ʻakimautolu, ka koeʻuhi ke fai ʻekimoutolu ʻaia ʻoku angatonu, neongo ʻoku mau hangē ha kau kākā.
Now I pray to YHWH that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates.
8 He ʻoku ʻikai te mau faʻa fai ha meʻa ke angatuʻu ki he moʻoni, ka ke kau taha mo e moʻoni.
For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
9 He ʻoku mau fiefia, ʻoka mau ka vaivai, kae mālohi ʻakimoutolu: pea ko e meʻa foki ʻoku mau fakaʻamu ki ai, ko hoʻomou fakahaohaoa.
For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we wish, even your perfection.
10 Ko ia ʻoku ou tohi ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni ʻi heʻeku mamaʻo, telia naʻa ʻi heʻeku ʻi ai te u fai fakamamahi, ʻo fakatatau mo e mālohi kuo foaki ʻe he ʻEiki kiate au ke langa ʻaki hake, ka ʻikai ki he fakaʻauha.
Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which YHWH hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.
11 Ko hono ngata, ʻe kāinga, siʻotoʻofa atu. Ke mou haohaoa, ke mou fiemālie, mou loto taha pe, mou moʻui melino; pea ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ʻofa mo e melino ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ia.
Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the Elohim of love and peace shall be with you.
12 Ke mou fetoutou fekitaʻaki ʻae fekita māʻoniʻoni.
Greet one another with an holy kiss.
13 ʻOku ʻofa atu ʻae kāinga māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē kiate kimoutolu.
All the saints salute you.
14 Ko e ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, mo e ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, mo e feohi ʻoe Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, ke ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē. ʻEmeni.
The favour of the Master Yahushua the Messiah, and the love of YHWH, and the communion of the Holy Spirit, be with you all. amein.
