2 Korintoarrei 9

1 Eta sainduey eguiten çayen aiutáz den becembatean, çuey scribatzea soberancia çayt.

For concerning the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you.

2 Ecen badaquit çuen gogo presta, ceinagatic çueçaz gloriatzen bainaiz Macedoniacoac baithan, ecen Achaia prest dela chazdanic: eta çuetaric heldu den zeloac anhitz persona incitatu vkan du.

For I know your readiness of mind, of which I boast in behalf of you to the Macedonians, that Achaia was prepared a year ago; and your zeal stirred up the greater part of them.

3 Igorri vkan ditut bada anaye hauc, gure çueçazco gloriatzea alde hunez vano eztén: erran dudan beçala, prest çaretençát:

But I sent the brethren, that our boasting of you should not prove unfounded in this respect; that, as I said, ye may be prepared;

4 Baldin Macedoniacoac enequin ethor baditez, eta prestatu gabeac eriden baçaitzatez, ahalque iragan ezteçagun (ezterradançát çuéc) çueçaz gloriatu gareneco segurança hunetan.

lest, should the Macedonians come with me, and find you unprepared, we (not to say ye) should be put to shame in respect to this confidence.

5 Bada necessario estimatu vkan dut othoitz eguitera anayey, lehenic çuetara datocen, eta lehen acaba deçaten çuen liberalitate aitzinetic declaratua: hura prest dençát liberalitate anço, eta ez cekentassun anço.

I thought it necessary therefore to exhort the brethren to go before to you, and make up beforehand your bounty, which was already announced, that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty, and not of covetousness.

6 Eta haur erraiten dut, Cekenqui ereiten duenac cekenqui bilduren-ere du: eta liberalqui ereiten duenac, liberalqui bilduren-ere du.

But this there is to say: He that soweth sparingly, shall reap also sparingly; and he that soweth bountifully, shall reap also bountifully.

7 Batbederac bere bihotzean proposatzen duen beçala, begui: ez tristitiarequin edo bortchaz: ecen alegueraqui emaiten duenari on daritza Iaincoac.

Each one, as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity; for God loveth a cheerful giver.

8 Eta botheretsu da Iaincoa gratia guciaren çuetan abunda eraciteco: gauça gucietan bethiere sufficientia gucia duçuelaric, obra on orotara abundos çaretençát:

And God is able to make every blessing abound toward you, that ye, always having all sufficiency in everything, may abound to every good work;

9 Scribatua den beçala, Distribuitu eta eman vkan draue paubrey: haren iustitiá dago seculacotz. (aiōn g165)

as it is written: “He dispersed abroad, he gave to the poor; his righteousness remaineth for ever.” (aiōn g165)

10 Bada hacia ereilleari fornitzen draucanac, ogui-ere iateco diçuela, eta multiplica deçala çuen hacia, eta çuen iustitiaren fructuac augmenta ditzala:

Now, he that ministereth seed to the sower, and bread for food, will supply and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;

11 Gauça gucietan abrasturic abundos çaretençát simplicitate orotara, ceinec eguiten baitu guçaz esquerrac eman daquizquión Iaincoari.

while ye are enriched in everything to all liberality, which worketh out through us thanksgiving to God;

12 Ecen oblatione hunen administrationeac eztu sainduén necessitatea supplitzen solament, baina abundatzen-ere badu anhitzec Iaincoari esquerrac drauzquioten becembatean:

for the ministration of this service not only supplieth the wants of the saints, but also overfloweth through many thanksgivings to God;

13 (Aiuta hunen phorogança hunez Iaincoa glorificatzen dutela çuen gogo batetaco suiectionearen gainean Christen Euangeliora, eta çuen hetaraco eta gucietaraco communicatione promptoaren gainean)

while by the proof afforded by this ministration they glorify God for your obedience to your profession in regard to the gospel of Christ, and for the liberality of your contribution in regard to them and in regard to all;

14 Eta çuengatic othoitz eguiten duten becembatean çuen desira dutelaric, Iaincoaren gratia çuetan abundatzen denagatic.

while with supplication for you they long after you on account of the exceeding grace of God to you.

15 Esquer bada Iaincoari haren dohain erran ecin daitenaz.

Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift.
