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?
Yi go bua yi guan nni ke kua ya yema nni ki yinba moan lo n ba die yi yuuli? yigo pia mi buama yeni ya tili nba wani yi baa kuni maama n cua yi kani?
2 You are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all men,
yinba, yinba n tie ti ya tili yaali n dianni ti pali nni. Ke cabi bi niba kuli n cooji li ki go ya bani li.
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.
Ke ŋan wani ki a tie kilisit tili, yaali n ñani ti kani, yaali ki dia nni yeni tidianni ñi moanma ka ama yeni o tienu fuama yua, ki laa tie a tanpaba po ka, ama bi niba ya palanni.
4 Such confidence we have through Christ toward God,
Lani n teni ki ti pia li papaali o tienu nni ke duginni kilisiti po.
5 not that we are sufficient of ourselves to account anything as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God,
ba ki ti tie ya danba n pia o paalu ki ba guudi ya banla n ñan tiya kani, ti bama kuli na o tienu kani.
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.
mani pagiti ki ti tie ya tuosoanba n tunni o ŋantaadi paano ya ni nni, ki laa tie ti banma ka, ama yeni otienu fuoma yua, kilima mi banma biandi o nilo, ama o fuoma yua coubi li miali.
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,
Moanla li ya tie ya tuoli n den tunni yeni ya. Tili n den diani a tanpaba po ki yegi yeni mi kuma den cuanni ti kpiagidi yali ki Isalele yaaba kan fidi ki diidi mousa nunga, kilima o tienu kpiagidi den gbie o nunga ya kpiagidi n den pia mi pendima.
8 won’t service of the Spirit be with much more glory?
o tienu fuoma yua n tunni ya tunni ya tuoli kan ba ya kpiagidi n cie yen nni?
9 For if the service of condemnation has glory, the service of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.
Ya tuoli ki bi ba fidi ki bu cuoŋa ya cuani ti kpiagidi, ya tuoli n gi ki pia buudi ya kpiagidi ba yabi!
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.
yen lan kuli, ya kpiagidi n den tieni yema po ki tie kpiagidi, kilima laa kpiagidi pendi.
11 For if that which passes away was with glory, much more that which remains is in glory.
Mi n maadi yaala n pia n pendi ma ya dgidi yeni ti kpiagidi yaala gi ki pia pendima maan ka ye ali yali yogu n tu yogu!
12 Having therefore such a hope, we use great boldness of speech,
Ti pia la papali, ki ti yali tiba,
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.
laa tie musa, n den yi ta licabili ki pini o nunga, ki Isalele yaaba buolu kan fidi ki yaadi tuogo yeni binunga yeni wan gbie yeniya kpiagidi n ba pendi.
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.
Ama bi yantiali ye ti juandi nni, hali din nne juandi baa ye bi ya cogi atikpela la bi po, kilima kilisiti nni bebe kiliba na.
15 But to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart.
ama, ba dinne, biya cogi mousa, li yantiali n piigi bi palaa.
16 But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
Ama, ya danno n ta o yuli ki puni o tiyondano, laa (cabili) yantiali ba ña.
17 Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
Tiyondano tie fuoŋama n ye nanni, li dano tie yua yali o ba.
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.
Ti kuli, ya nunga la ki bandi o tienu kpiagidi, ki libidi toangu pui ti tua nani wani ki ba ya kpiagidi n ñani o ya kani nani tiyondano, wani yua n tie fuoŋama.
