2 Ukorintiyawa 13

1 Ulele untatari naidin dasu kiti min, “an wabaa sa an watat nwa ti iyizi imba ulirun soo vat ni lemong na iibenle”

This is the third time I am coming to you. Every matter must be established by the mouth of two or three witnesses.

2 Iwa malun benlu minu alee na isu kulapi nin kidung udu va mine kubi kon aiwa diku udakin baa mmini kuru benle: andi daa tutung na ima cinu nanin ba.

I gave a warning when I was present the second time, and now I am giving this written warning while absent: If I come again I will not spare those who sinned previously or any of the others,

3 In belin minu ule na bara na idin piziru iyizi in ba au Kristi din liru nanya ning Na a dira likara nanya mine ba nmanimako adi nin likara nanya mine.

since you seek proof that Christ is speaking in me. He is not weak in dealing with you, but is powerful among you.

4 Bara na iwa banaghe nin sali likara bara nani adi nin lai nin likara Kutelle. Bara na arik sali nin likara nanya m, bara nini ti ba yitu nin lai ninghe me. likara Kutelle nanya mine.

For though he was crucified in weakness, he lives by the power of God. Now we also are weak in him, but in dealing with you we will live with him by the power of God.

5 Dumunang atimine iyene sa idi nanya yenu sa uyun. Gbardan atimin. Na i iyiru ba Yesu Kristi di nanya mine. Aduku sai dai na iyiru mun ba

Examine yourselves to see if you are in the faith; test yourselves. Or do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless, of course, you fail to meet the test.

6 Mang di nin nayi akune au i ma yinu na isa yina nin narik b.

But I hope you will recognize that we have not failed the test.

7 Nene ti dinin nlira cindu kiti Kutelle au na i wa se i utanu ba andi na nani ba imase ti lau udumun, au bara nani in taa nlira inan su ilemon na ica, imoti tima yenu nafo ti deu udumune

I pray to God that you will not do anything wrong—not so that we may appear to have met the test, but so that you may do what is right, even though we may appear to have failed.

8 Bara tiwa gya tisu imomo usa bani kidegen, bara kidegenere kawai.

For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth.

9 Asa ti lanza mmang bara na arik ndiri anun nin kulun. Tinani kuru ti taa nlira au i se minu kulum

We rejoice when we are weak and you are strong, and we pray for your restoration.

10 Indin yertu nilele bara na ndi piit nan ghen, bara na nwadi nanghinu na mma yitu gbagbai nati mine b, insu katwa nin likara lo na ucif nay inke minu kokuwa in musuzu minu ba

The reason I am writing these things to you while I am absent is so that, when I am present, I will not need to be harsh in my use of authority, which the Lord has given me for building up and not for tearing down.

11 Nimalin, nwana ni lime nin nishono taan ayi aboo! sun katwa bara ukurtuzun, sun nin nibinai likara yinnan nin nwana nat, sun nanya ncanam nibinai, Kutelle su nin shau kibinai ba yitu ligowe nan ghenu.

Finally, brothers, rejoice. Be restored, be comforted, be of the same mind, and live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

12 Lison vat mine nin nilip ngbindirnu

Greet one another with a holy kiss.

13 Vat anan yinnu sa uyenu din lisu minu

All the saints greet you.

14 Ubolu Kutelle Ncif Yesu Kristi usu Kutelle, nin lidondon Nfip milau yita nan ghenu vat.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.
