2 Korintoarrei 9

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

And concerning the ministration by the saints, it would be 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 the goodness of your mind; and therefore I gloried of you before the Macedonians, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal hath excited many.

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

Yet I sent the brethren, lest the glorying with which we have gloried in you in regard to this matter, should prove vain; and that ye, as I said, may be ready;

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

so that, if the Macedonians should come with me, and should find you unprepared, we-not to say, ye-should be put to shame for that glorying in which we gloried.

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.

Therefore I was careful to request these my brethren, to go before me unto you, that they might make up this benefaction, of which ye were advised long before to have it ready, as being a benefaction, and not a matter of cupidity.

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

And this I say: He that soweth sparingly, shall also reap sparingly; and he that soweth bountifully, shall also reap bountifully.

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

Every man, according to his own views, not with sadness, not by constraint: for the Lord loveth a joyous giver.

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

For it is in the power of God, to make all good abound to you, so that ye may have, at all times, and in every thing, what is sufficient for you; and may abound in every good work.

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

As it is written, He hath dispersed and given to the poor; and his righteousness is established 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 giveth seed to the sower, and bread for food, may he give and multiply your seed, and increase the fruits of your righteousness:

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

so that in every thing, ye may be enriched unto all liberality, to the completion of our thanksgiving to God.

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

For the performance of this ministration, not only supplieth the want of the saints, but is also rich in 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)

For on account of the test of this ministration, we glorify God, that ye do subject yourselves to the profession of the gospel of the Messiah, and that in your liberality, ye communicate with them and with all men:

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

and they put up prayer for you, with much love, because of the abundance of the grace of God that is upon you.

15 Esquer bada Iaincoari haren dohain erran ecin daitenaz.

Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift.
