2 Korintoarrei 10

1 Gainerocoaz, othoitz eguiten drauçuet Christen emetassunaz eta clementiáz, nic neurorrec Paulec, presentián çuen artean chipi, baina absentián çuetara hardit naicenac.

Now I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, I, who present indeed am lowly among you, but am bold toward you when absent;

2 Othoitz eguiten drauçuet bada present niçatequeenean eznaicén hardit hardieça batez, ceinez deliberatzen baitut hardit içatera haraguiaren araura ebilten baguinade beçala estimatzen gaituzten batzutara.

but I entreat you, that I may not when I am present be bold with that confidence wherewith I think of being bold towards some, who think of us as walking according to the flesh.

3 Ecen haraguian ebilten garelaric, ez gara haraguiaren araura bataillatzen:

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh,

4 (Ecen gure guerlaco harmadurác eztirade carnal, baina botheretsu Iaincoaz, fortalecén deseguiteco.)

(for the weapons of our warfare are not fleshly, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds, )

5 Deseguiten ditugularic conseilluac, eta Iaincoaren eçagutzearen contra altchatzen den goratassun gucia: eta eramaiten dugularic captiuo beçala adimendu gucia Christen obedientiara:

casting down reasonings, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing every purpose into captivity to the obedience of Christ,

6 Eta prest dugu nondic mendeca gaitecen desobedientia oroz, çuen obedientiá complitu datequeenean.

and being in readiness to punish every disobedience, when the measure of your obedience shall be full.

7 Beguién aitzinean dituçuen gaucetara beha çaudete? baldin edoceinec bere baithan confidança badu Christena dela, aldiz pensa beça bere baithan, ecen hura Christena den beçala, halaber gu-ere Christenac garela.

Ye look at the outward appearance. If any one trusteth to himself that he belongeth to Christ, let him of himself consider this again, that as he belongeth to Christ, so also do we.

8 Ecen baldin are guehiago cerbait gloriatu nahi banaiz gure puissançáz, cein Iaunac eman baitraucu çuen edificationetan, eta ez çuen destructionetan, eznaiz ahalqueturen:

For even if I should boast still more highly of our authority, which the Lord gave us for building you up, and not pulling you down, I should not be put to shame;

9 Irudi eztudançát epistolaz icitu nahi çaituztedala.

that I may not seem as if I would terrify you by my letters.

10 Ecen epistolác (dioite) graue dirade eta borthitz, baina gorputzaren presentiá flaccu, eta hitza gaichto.

For his letters, saith one, are weighty and strong; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible.

11 Haur estima beça hainac, ecen nolaco baicara hitzez epistoletan absentián, halaco içanen garela presentian-ere eguinez.

Let such a one count upon this, that such as we are in word by letters when absent, such will we be also in deed when present.

12 Ecen ezgara venturatzen gure buruén bardin eçartera edo comparatzera bere buruäc laudatzen dituzten batzuequin: baina eztute aditzen hec bere buruäc bere buruèquin neurtzen dituztela, eta bere buruäc bere buruèquin comparatzen dituztela.

For we do not venture to reckon ourselves among, or compare ourselves with, some of those who commend themselves; but they, measuring themselves among themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are not wise.

13 Baina gu ezgara gloriaturen gure neurrico eztiraden gaucéz: aitzitic Iaincoac partitu draucun neurri reglatuaren arauez, gloriaturen gara çuetarano-ere heldu içan garela.

But we will not boast of things that are without our measure, but according to the measure of the line which God allotted us, —a measure to reach even to you.

14 Ecen çuetarano heldu içan ezpaguina beçala, ezgara hedatzen behar den baino guehiago: ecen çuetarano-ere heldu içan gara Christen Euangelioan:

For we do not stretch ourselves beyond our measure, as though we reached not to you; (for as far as even to you did we come, in the gospel of Christ; )

15 Ez gure neurrico etzén gauçaz gloriatzen guinadelaric, erran nahi dut, berceren trabailluetan: baina sperança dugularic ecen çuen fedea handi dadinean, gu-ere frangoqui handituren garela assignatu içan çaicun neurrian.

not boasting of things that are without measure, in other men's labors, but having hope, when your faith is increased, that our line will through you be still further extended,

16 Hala non çuec baino aitzinago diraden lekuetan euangeliza deçadan eta ezgaitecen gloria berceri assignatu içan çayón neurrian, erran nahi dut, gauça ia preparatuetan.

so that we may preach the gospel in the regions beyond you; not boasting, in another's line, of things made ready to our hand.

17 Baina gloriatzen dena Iaunean gloria bedi.

But “he that boasteth, let him boast in the Lord.”

18 Ecen berac bere buruä preçatzen duena ezta approbatua, baina Iaunac preçatzen duena.

For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but he whom the Lord commendeth.
