2 Korintofoɔ 13
1 Nsra a ɛtɔ so mmiɛnsa a merebɛsra mo ni. Atwerɛsɛm no ka sɛ, “Adanseɛ a nnipa baanu anaa baasa bɛdi no na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔfa.”
THIS third time I am coming to you: by the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every charge be established.
2 Ɛberɛ a mebaa mo nkyɛn deɛ ɛtɔ so mmienu no, mebɔɔ mo kɔkɔ bi. Mereti mu bio seesei a menni mo nkyɛn yi. Sɛ mesane ba bio a, mo anaa nnipa afoforɔ bi a wɔayɛ bɔne no, meremfa wɔn ho nkyɛ wɔn,
I have told you before, and I repeat it, as when I was present the second time, and now absent, I write to those who have sinned already, and to all the rest, that if I come again, I will not spare you:
3 ɛfiri sɛ, mopɛ sɛ mohunu nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bi sɛ Kristo nam me so kasa. Ɔnnyɛ mmerɛ sɛ ɔbɛyɛ mo mu adwuma, na mmom, ɔwɔ tumi wɔ mo mu.
since ye demand a proof that Christ speaketh in me, who to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.
4 Ɛwom sɛ mmerɛyɛ mu na wɔbɔɔ no asɛnnua mu, nanso Onyankopɔn tumi mu na ɔte ase yi. Yɛyɛ mmerɛ deɛ, nanso yɛn ayɔnkofa a yɛne no wɔ enti, yɛne no bɛtena wɔ Onyankopɔn tumi mu.
For though he was crucified in weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God: for we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God displayed towards you.
5 Monsɔ mo ho nhwɛ na mommu mo ho atɛn nhwɛ sɛ mote ase wɔ gyidie mu anaa. Monim yie sɛ Kristo Yesu te mo mu anaa? Sɛ ɔnte mo mu a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ moantumi sɔhwɛ no.
Examine yourselves, whether ye are in the faith; prove your ownselves: know ye not your ownselves, that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobate?
6 Menim yie sɛ mobɛhunu sɛ yɛanni nkoguo.
But I hope that ye shall know that we are not reprobate.
7 Afei, yɛbɔ mpaeɛ srɛ Onyankopɔn sɛ morennyɛ biribiara a ɛnnyɛ. Yɛmmpɛ sɛ nnipa bɛhunu sɛ yɛwɔ tumi bi wɔ mo so. Sɛ mpo sɛ wɔhunu yɛn sɛ yɛsɛ nnipa a yɛadi nkoguo wɔ yɛn adwuma mu a, yɛpɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, yɛpɛ sɛ mobɛyɛ deɛ ɛyɛ de adi nkonim.
Now I pray unto God that ye do no evil, not that we should appear approved, but that you may do that which is laudable, though we should be as reprobates.
8 Yɛrentumi nsɔre ntia nokorɛ, na mmom, nokorɛ nko ara na ɛsɛ sɛ yɛgyina ma no.
For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
9 Sɛ yɛhunu sɛ yɛyɛ mmerɛ na moyɛ den a, na yɛn ani agye. Enti, yɛn nso yɛrebɔ mpaeɛ sɛ mobɛyɛ pɛ.
For we rejoice when we are weak, but ye are strong: and this also we pray for, even your perfect establishment.
10 Ɛno enti na meretwerɛ saa krataa yi abrɛ mo sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, sɛ meba a, merennyina tumi a Awurade de ama me sɛ memfa mmoa mo na monnyini na mo mu antete no so, na me ne mo anni no anibereɛ so.
For this cause, though absent, I have written these things, that when I am present I may not use severity, according to the power which the Lord hath given me for edification, and not for destruction.
11 Enti, anuanom, makra mo! Mompere nhwehwɛ ade pa; montie mʼafotuo; mo ne mo ho mo ho nka na montena ase asomdwoeɛ mu. Na ɔdɔ ne asomdwoeɛ Onyankopɔn no ne mo bɛtena.
Finally, brethren, rejoice: be perfectly united together, be comforted, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.
12 Momfa onuadɔ nkyeakyea mo ho mo ho.
Salute one another with a holy kiss.
13 Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ nyinaa kyeakyea mo.
All the saints salute you.
14 Yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo adom ne Onyankopɔn dɔ ne Honhom Kronkron no ayɔnkofa nka mo nyinaa.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost be with you all. Amen. The second epistle to the Corinthians was written from Philippi, a city of Macedonia, by Titus and Luke.
