< 2 Korintofoɔ 1 >
1 Krataa yi firi Paulo a Onyankopɔn ayi no sɛ Kristo Yesu ɔsomafoɔ no ne Timoteo a ɔyɛ yɛn nuanom no mu baako nkyɛn, Mede saa krataa yi rekɔma Onyankopɔn asafo a ɛwɔ Korinto ne ahotefoɔ a wɔwɔ Akaiaman mu no nyinaa:
Pavl an Apostle of JESVS Christ, by the will of God, and our brother Timotheus, to the Church of God, which is at Corinthus with all the Saints, which are in all Achaia:
2 Adom ne asomdwoeɛ a ɛfiri yɛn Agya Onyankopɔn ne Awurade Yesu Kristo nka mo.
Grace be with you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Iesus Christ.
3 Momma yɛnna Onyankopɔn a ɔyɛ yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo Agya no a ɔyɛ mmɔborɔhunu Agya na ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn a awerɛkyekyerɛ nyinaa firi no no ase.
Blessed be God, euen the Father of our Lord Iesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort,
4 Ɔkyekyere yɛn werɛ wɔ yɛn amaneɛ nyinaa mu na yɛnam awerɛkyekyerɛ a yɛn ankasa anya afiri Onyankopɔn nkyɛn no so atumi akyekyere afoforɔ a wɔwɔ amaneɛ ahodoɔ mu no werɛ.
Which comforteth vs in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any affliction by the comfort wherewith we our selues are comforted of God.
5 Sɛdeɛ yɛahunu amane wɔ Kristo mu no, saa ara nso na yɛnya Kristo awerɛkyekyerɛ a ɛdɔɔso no.
For as the sufferings of Christ abounde in vs, so our consolation aboundeth through Christ.
6 Mo awerɛkyekyerɛ ne mo nkwagyeɛ enti yɛhunu amane. Ɛfiri sɛ, sɛ Kristo kyekye yɛn werɛ a, yɛn nso yɛnam so bɛtumi akyekye mo werɛ. Ɛno bɛma mo anya ntoboaseɛ ahunu amane sɛ yɛn nso.
And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and saluation, which is wrought in the induring of the same sufferings, which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and saluation.
7 Enti, gyidie a yɛwɔ wɔ mo mu no nhinhim. Yɛnim sɛ, sɛdeɛ mo ne yɛn hunu amane no, saa ara nso na awerɛkyekyerɛ a yɛnya no, monya bi.
And our hope is stedfast concerning you, in as much as we know that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.
8 Anuanom, yɛpɛ sɛ yɛtwe mo adwene ba ɔhaw a ɛtoo yɛn wɔ Asia mantam mu no so. Amane a yɛfaa mu no so, na na emu yɛ duru enti yɛn asetena mu anidasoɔ nyinaa yeraeɛ.
For brethren, we woulde not haue you ignorant of our affliction, which came vnto vs in Asia, howe we were pressed out of measure passing strength, so that we altogether doubted, euen of life.
9 Nokorɛm yɛgye too mu sɛ yɛrebɛwu. Saa asɛm yi siiɛ, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a yɛremfa yɛn ho nto yɛn ankasa so, na mmom, yɛde yɛn ho bɛto Onyankopɔn a ɔma awufoɔ sɔre no so.
Yea, we receiued the sentence of death in our selues, because we shoulde not trust in our selues, but in God, which rayseth the dead.
10 Wayi yɛn afiri saa owuo amanehunu yi mu na ɔbɛkɔ so agye yɛn. Ɔno na yɛde yɛn ani ato no so sɛ, sɛ mokɔ so bɔ mpaeɛ ma yɛn a,
Who deliuered vs from so great a death, and doeth deliuer vs: in whom we trust, that yet hereafter he will deliuer vs,
11 ɔbɛgye yɛn bio. Yei kyerɛ sɛ, ɔbɛbua mpaeɛ dodoɔ biara a mobɔ ma yɛn no, na Onyankopɔn bɛhyira yɛn, na dodoɔ no ara ama wɔn nne so de ada no ase ama yɛn.
So that ye labour together in prayer for vs, that for the gift bestowed vpon vs for many, thankes may be giuen by many persons for vs.
12 Yɛhoahoa yɛn ho sɛ yɛn ahonim mmu yɛn fɔ, yɛatena ase nokorɛdie mu, ne titire ne ɛberɛ a yɛwɔ mo nkyɛn no. Ɛnyɛ ewiase nyansa na ɛkyerɛ yɛn kwan. Mmom, yɛn akwankyerɛ firi Onyankopɔn adom no mu.
For our reioycing is this, the testimonie of our conscience, that in simplicitie and godly purenesse, and not in fleshly wisedome, but by the grace of God wee haue had our conuersation in the worlde, and most of all to you wardes.
13 Nsɛm a mobɛtumi akenkan, ate aseɛ nko na yɛtwerɛ de brɛ mo. Mewɔ anidasoɔ sɛ, mobɛte biribiara a
For wee write none other thinges vnto you, then that ye reade or els that ye acknowledge, and I trust ye shall acknowledge vnto ye end.
14 monnte aseɛ yie no ase daakye sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, da a Awurade Yesu bɛba no, mode yɛn bɛhoahoa mo ho na yɛn nso yɛde mo ahoahoa yɛn ho.
Euen as ye haue acknowledged vs partly, that we are your reioycing, euen as ye are ours, in the day of our Lord Iesus.
15 Na menim sɛ saa asɛm yi bɛba mu. Ɛno enti na mehyehyɛɛ sɛ mɛba abɛsra mo na moanya nhyira mprenu.
And in this confidence was I minded first to come vnto you, that ye might haue had a double grace,
16 Meyɛɛ mʼadwene sɛ, sɛ merekɔ Makedonia a, mɛba mo nkyɛn, na meresane nso a, mafa mo nkyɛn ansa na makɔ Yudea.
And to passe by you into Macedonia, and to come againe out of Macedonia vnto you, and to be led foorth towarde Iudea of you.
17 Modwene sɛ mantumi ansi mʼadwene pi wɔ deɛ ɛsɛ sɛ meyɛ anaa? Anaasɛ mete sɛ obi a ɔka sɛ “Aane” anaa “Dabi” sɛdeɛ ɛbɛsɔ afoforɔ ani?
When I therefore was thus minded, did I vse lightnesse? or minde I those thinges which I minde, according to the flesh, that with me should be, Yea, yea, and Nay, nay?
18 Onyankopɔn yɛ ɔnokwafoɔ. Enti sɛ meka sɛ yɛn mmuaeɛ yɛ “Aane” ɛberɛ biara a, ɛyɛ “Aane”, ɛnnyɛ “Dabi” da a.
Yea, God is faithfull, that our worde towarde you was not Yea, and Nay.
19 Ɛfiri sɛ, Yesu Kristo, Onyankopɔn Ba no a me Paulo, Silas ne Timoteo kaa ne ho asɛm kyerɛɛ mo no nsesa. Ɔnnka “Aane” ne “Dabi” da. Ɛberɛ biara ɔdi nʼasɛm so.
For the Sonne of God Iesus Christ, who was preached among you by vs, that is, by me, and Siluanus, and Timotheus, was not Yea, and Nay: but in him it was Yea.
20 Ɔno mu na Onyankopɔn bɔhyɛ nyinaa awie pɛyɛ. Yei enti, yɛnam Yesu Kristo so ka “Amen” de hyɛ Onyankopɔn animuonyam.
For all the promises of God in him are Yea, and are in him Amen, vnto the glorie of God through vs.
21 Afei, Onyankopɔn no ankasa na ɔma yɛne mo tumi gyina pintinn wɔ Kristo mu. Ɔno na ɔsraa yɛn
And it is God which stablisheth vs with you in Christ, and hath anoynted vs.
22 faa yɛn sɛ ne deɛ, ɛnna ɔde ne Honhom Kronkron no hyɛɛ yɛn akoma mu de sii deɛ ɔwɔ ma yɛn nyinaa so dua.
Who hath also sealed vs, and hath giuen the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
23 Mefrɛ Onyankopɔn sɛ mʼadanseɛ. Ɔnim mʼakoma mu. Sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a mobɛnya kwan agye mo ahome enti na mankɔ Korinto no.
Nowe, I call God for a recorde vnto my soule, that to spare you, I came not as yet vnto Corinthus.
24 Ɛnyɛ yɛn adwene ne sɛ yɛbɛhyɛ mo ama mo agye biribi adi, na mmom, mo ahotɔ enti na yɛne mo yɛ adwuma. Ɛfiri sɛ, ɛnam mo ankasa gyidie so na mobɛgyina pintinn.
Not that wee haue dominion ouer your faith, but wee are helpers of your ioy: for by faith yee stande.
