2 Corinthians 3
1 Are we beginning again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, as do some, letters of commendation to you or from you?
ᏥᎪ ᏔᎵᏁ ᎣᏣᎴᏂ ᎣᎬᏒ ᎣᏣᏓᎸᏉᏗᎭ? ᏥᎪᎨ ᎠᏎ ᏫᏗᏨᏃᎮᏗ ᏃᎦᎵᏍᏓᏁᎭ, ᎪᏪᎵ ᎣᎩᎸᏉᏗᏍᎩ ᎩᎶ ᏥᏄᎾᎵᏍᏓᏁᎰᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᏂᎯ ᏗᏍᎩᏅᏁᎸᎯ ᏍᎩᎸᏉᏗᏍᎩ?
2 You are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all men,
ᏂᎯ ᎪᏪᎵ ᎣᎦᏤᎵᎦ, ᏥᎪᏪᎳ ᏦᎩᎾᏫᎯ, ᎾᏂᎥ ᏴᏫ ᏣᏂᎦᏔᎭ ᎠᎴ ᏣᏂᎪᎵᏰᎠ.
3 being revealed that you are a letter of Christ, served by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tablets of stone, but in tablets that are hearts of flesh.
ᎬᏂᎨᏒᎢᏳ ᎢᏰᏨᏁᎸᎯ ᏂᎯ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎤᏤᎵ ᎪᏪᎵ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎠᏴ ᏦᎩᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᎸᎯ, ᎪᏪᎳᏅᎯ ᎪᏪᎶᏗ ᎬᏔᏅᎯ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ, ᎠᏓᏅᏙᏍᎩᏂ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎬᏂᏛ ᎤᏤᎵ ᎬᏔᏅᎯ; ᎥᏝ ᏅᏲᎯ ᏗᎪᏪᎶᏗᏱ ᏗᎪᏪᎳᏅᎯ ᏱᎩ, ᎤᏇᏓᎵᏍᎩᏂ ᎨᏒ ᏗᎪᏪᎶᏗᏱ ᎣᎾᏫᏱ.
4 Such confidence we have through Christ toward God,
ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᏄᏍᏗ ᏱᏣᎵᏍᎦᏍᏙᏛ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎢᏳᏩᏂᏌᏛ.
5 not that we are sufficient of ourselves to account anything as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God,
ᎥᏝᏍᎩᏂᏃᏅ ᎣᎬᏒ ᎨᏒ ᏰᎵ ᎦᏲᎦᏓᏅᏖᏗ ᏱᎩ ᎪᎱᏍᏗ ᎣᎬᏒᏉ ᎨᏒ ᏅᏛᏓᎴᎲᏍᎩ, ᏰᎵᏉᏍᎩᏂ ᎢᎦᏲᎦᏛᏁᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯᏱ ᏗᏓᎴᎲᏍᎦ.
6 who also made us sufficient as servants of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
ᎾᏍᎩ ᎾᏍᏉ ᏰᎵ ᎢᎦᏲᎦᏛᏁᏗ ᏥᏃᎬᏁᎸ ᏦᎩᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᏗᏱ ᎾᎿᎭᎢᏤ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ ᏓᏠᎯᏍᏛᎢ; ᎥᏝ ᎠᏗᎾ ᏄᏍᏛ ᎪᏪᎸᎢ, ᎠᏓᏅᏙᏍᎩᏂ ᏓᏕᏲᎲᏍᎬᎢ; ᏄᏍᏛᏰᏃ ᎪᏪᎸ ᎠᏓᎯᎰᏉ, ᎠᏓᏅᏙᏍᎩᏂ ᎠᏓᏛᏂᏗᏍᎪᎢ.
7 But if the service of death, written engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look steadfastly on the face of Moses for the glory of his face, which was passing away,
ᎢᏳᏃ ᏗᎦᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᏗ ᎠᏓᎯᎯ ᎨᏒ ᎤᎬᏩᎵ ᏥᎪᏪᎴ ᏣᏰᎶᎴ ᏅᏲᎯ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᏥᎨᏎᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏏᎵ ᏧᏪᏥ ᎪᎯᏛ ᏗᎬᏩᎾᎧᏃᏗ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᏥᎨᏎ ᎼᏏ ᎤᎧᏛᎢ, ᏥᏅᏗᎦᎵᏍᏙᏗᏍᎨ ᏗᎬᏩᎸᏌᏛ ᎨᏒ ᎤᎧᏛᎢ; ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᎲᏍᏗᏉ ᏥᎨᏎᎢ;
8 won’t service of the Spirit be with much more glory?
ᏝᏍᎪ Ꮀ ᏳᎬᏫᏳᏎᏍᏗ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᏱᎨᏎᏍᏗ ᎠᏓᏅᏙ ᎤᎬᏩᎵ ᎨᏒ ᏗᎦᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᏗ?
9 For if the service of condemnation has glory, the service of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.
ᎢᏳᏰᏃ ᏗᎦᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᏗ ᏗᏓᏚᎪᏓᏁᎯ ᎨᏒ ᎦᎾᏄᏫᏍᎩ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᏱᎩ, Ꮀ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎭ ᎤᏓᎪᎾᏛᏗ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᎠᏓᏚᏓᎴᏍᎩ ᎨᏒ ᏗᎦᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᏗ.
10 For most certainly that which has been made glorious has not been made glorious in this respect, by reason of the glory that surpasses.
ᎾᏍᎩᏰᏃ ᎾᏍᏉ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᎢᎬᏁᎸᎯ ᏥᎨᏎ ᎥᏝ ᎰᏩ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᏱᎨᏎᎢ, ᏅᏗᎦᎵᏍᏙᏗᏍᎨ ᎬᏩᏓᎪᎾᏛᏛ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᎨᏒ ᏐᎢ.
11 For if that which passes away was with glory, much more that which remains is in glory.
ᎢᏳᏰᏃ ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᎠᎲᏛ ᏥᎩ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᏱᎨᏎᎢ, ᎤᏟᎯᏳ ᏭᏓᎪᎾᏛᏗ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᏥᏅᏩᏍᏗᏉ.
12 Having therefore such a hope, we use great boldness of speech,
ᎾᏍᎩᏃ Ꮎ ᏥᏄᏍᏗ ᎤᏚᎩ ᏦᎬᎭ, ᎤᏣᏘ ᎠᎯᏗᏳ ᎦᎪᎵᏍᏗ ᎣᏥᏬᏂᎭ;
13 and not as Moses, who put a veil on his face so that the children of Israel wouldn’t look steadfastly on the end of that which was passing away.
ᎢᏝᏃ ᎼᏏ ᏥᏄᏛᏁᎴ [ ᏱᏃᏣᏛᏁᎭ ] ᏧᎵᎬᏚᎳᏁ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏏᎵ ᏧᏪᏥ ᏫᏗᎬᏩᎾᎧᏃᏗ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᎢᏳᎵᏍᏙᏗᏱ ᏩᏍᏛ ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᎠᎲᏛ ᏥᎩ.
14 But their minds were hardened, for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains, because in Christ it passes away.
ᏚᎾᏓᏅᏛᏍᎩᏂ ᏧᏍᎦᏃᎵᏳ ᎨᏎᎢ; ᎪᎯᏰᏃ ᎢᏯᏍᏗ ᏅᏩᏍᏗᏉ ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᎠᎵᎬᏚᎶ ᎠᎲᏛ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᎢᏳᏃ ᏓᏂᎪᎵᏯ ᎤᏪᏘ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ ᏓᏠᎯᏍᏛ ᎪᏪᎸᎢ; ᎦᎶᏁᏛᏰᏃ ᏂᎬᏂᏏᏍᎪ ᎠᎲᏛ ᏂᎨᏐᎢ.
15 But to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart.
ᎩᎳᎯᏳᏉᏍᎩᏂ ᎪᎯ ᎢᎦ ᎢᏯᏍᏗ ᎢᏳᏃ ᎼᏏ ᏓᏥᎪᎵᏯ ᎠᎵᎬᏚᎶ ᏧᏂᎾᏫ ᏚᏭᏢᏙᎢ.
16 But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
ᎠᏎᏍᎩᏂᏃᏅ, ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯᏱ ᏫᏓᎦᏔᎲᏍᏔᏅᎭ, ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᎠᎵᎬᏚᎶ ᎢᏴᏛ ᎢᎬᏁᏗ ᏅᏓᎦᎵᏍᏔᏂ.
17 Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
ᎠᎴ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᎠᏓᏅᏙ; ᎢᎸᎯᏢᏃ ᏄᏛᎿᎭᏕᎬ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎤᏤᎵ ᎠᏓᏅᏙ, ᎾᎿᎭᎡᎭ ᎣᏩᏒ ᎣᏓᏤᎵᎦᏯ ᎨᏒᎢ.
18 But we all, with unveiled face seeing the glory of the Lord as in a mirror, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord, the Spirit.
ᎠᏴᏍᎩᏂ ᏂᏗᎥ ᏂᏗᎦᎵᎬᏚᎸᎾ ᎠᏓᎨᏗᏱ ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᏕᏓᎧᏂᏍᎬ ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᎨᏒ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎤᏤᎵᎦ, ᎢᏓᏓᏁᏟᏴᎭ ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᏄᏍᏛ ᏂᏓᎵᏍᏗᎭ, ᎦᎸᏉᏗᏳ ᎨᏒ ᎢᎩᎲ ᎧᏁᏉᏤᎦ, ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎤᏓᏅᏙ ᎢᏳᏩᏂᏌᏛ ᎾᏍᎩᏯᎢ.
