2 Corinthians 3
1 Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or do we need, like some people, letters of recommendation to you or from you?
Hatsen gara berriz gure buruén gommendatzen? ala behar dugu batzuc beçala, epistola gommendagarriric çuetara, edo çuetaric gommendagarriric?
2 You yourselves are our letter, inscribed on our hearts, known and read by everyone.
Gure epistolá çuec çarete, gure bihotzetan scribatua, cein eçagutzen eta iracurtzen baita guiçon guciéz.
3 It is clear that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.
Agueri den becembatean ecen Christen epistola guçaz administratua çaretela, scribatua ez tintaz, baina Iainco viciaren Spirituaz: ez harrizco tauletan, baina bihotzeco taula haraguizcoetan.
4 Such confidence before God is ours through Christ.
Eta halaco confidança dugu Christez Iaincoa baithan.
5 Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim that anything comes from us, but our competence comes from God.
Ez sufficient garelacotz gure buruz cerbaiten pensatzeco, gueurorganic beçala: baina gure sufficientiá Iaincoaganic da.
6 And He has qualified us as ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
Ceinec Testamentu berrico ministre sufficient-ere eguin baiquaitu, ez letraren, baina Spirituaren: ecen letrác hiltzen du, baina Spirituac viuificatzen du.
7 Now if the ministry of death, which was engraved in letters on stone, came with such glory that the Israelites could not gaze at the face of Moses because of its fleeting glory,
Eta baldin heriotaco ministerioa letraz harrietan moldatua içan bada glorioso, hambat non Israeleco haourréc ecin behá baitzeçaqueten Moysesen beguithartera, haren beguitharteco gloria fin vkan behar çuenagatic:
8 will not the ministry of the Spirit be even more glorious?
Nolatan ezta Spirituaren ministerioa gloriosoago içanen?
9 For if the ministry of condemnation was glorious, how much more glorious is the ministry of righteousness!
Ecen baldin condemnationetaco ministerioa glorioso içan bada: iustitiataco ministerioac anhitzez iragaitenago du gloriaz.
10 Indeed, what was once glorious has no glory now in comparison to the glory that surpasses it.
11 For if what was fading away came with glory, how much greater is the glory of that which endures!
Ecen baldin fin hartu behar çuena glorioso içan bada, vnguiz gloriosoago da dagoena.
12 Therefore, since we have such a hope, we are very bold.
Beraz hunelaco sperançá dugunaz gueroz, minçatzeco libertate handiz vsatzen dugu.
13 We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to keep the Israelites from gazing at the end of what was fading away.
Eta ez gara Moysez beçala ceinec estalquia emaiten baitzuen bere beguitharte gainean, Israeleco haourréc abolitu behar cenaren finera beha ezleçatençát.
14 But their minds were closed. For to this day the same veil remains at the reading of the old covenant. It has not been lifted, because only in Christ can it be removed.
Bada, hayén adimenduac gogortu içan dirade: ecen egungo egunerano estalqui bera dago Testamentu çaharreco lecturán kendu gabea (cein Christez kencen baita)
15 And even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts.
Baina egungo egun hunetarano Moyses iracurtzen denean, estalquia hayén bihotz gainean dago.
16 But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
Baina Iaunagana conuertitu datequeenean kenduren da estalquia.
17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
Eta Iauna Spiritu da: eta Iaunaren Spiritua non, libertatea han.
18 And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into His image with intensifying glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
Bada gu gucioc beguithartea aguerturic Iaunaren glorián miratzen garela, imagina berera transformatzen gara gloriataric gloriatara, Iaunaren Spirituaz beçala.
