2 Corinthians 5
1 For we know that if the earthly house of our tent is dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens. (aiōnios g166)
He ʻoku mau ʻilo ʻoka veteki homau fale kelekele, ko e fale fehikitaki ni, ʻoku ai homau fale mei he ʻOtua, ko e fale naʻe ʻikai ngaohi ʻe he nima, ʻoku taʻengata, ʻi he langi. (aiōnios g166)
2 For most certainly in this we groan, longing to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven,
He ʻoku māpuhoi ʻi heni, ʻo holi lahi ke mau kofuʻaki homau fale ʻaia ʻoku mei he langi:
3 if indeed being clothed, we will not be found naked.
He koeʻuhi ʻi heʻemau kofuʻia, ke ʻoua naʻa ʻiloa ʻoku mau telefua.
4 For indeed we who are in this tent do groan, being burdened, not that we desire to be unclothed, but that we desire to be clothed, that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
He ko kimautolu ʻoku ʻi he fale fehikitaki ni, ʻoku māpuhoi, kuo māfasia: kae ʻikai koeʻuhi ke mau taʻekofuʻia, kae kofuʻaki, koeʻuhi ke folo hifo ʻae matengofua ʻi he moʻui.
5 Now he who made us for this very thing is God, who also gave to us the down payment of the Spirit.
Pea ko ia kuo ne ngaohi ʻakimautolu ki he meʻa ko eni, ko e ʻOtua ia, ʻaia kuo ne foaki foki kiate kimautolu hono fakamoʻoni ʻoe Laumālie.
6 Therefore we are always confident and know that while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord;
Ko ia ʻoku mau lototoʻa maʻuaipē, ʻo ʻilo, lolotonga ʻemau ʻi heni ʻi he sino, ʻoku mau nofo kehekehe mo e ʻEiki:
7 for we walk by faith, not by sight.
(He ʻoku mau ʻaʻeva ʻi he tui, kae ʻikai ʻi he mamata: )
8 We are courageous, I say, and are willing rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord.
ʻOku mau lototoʻa, pea holi ke hiki muʻa mei he sino, ka mau nonofo mo e ʻEiki:
9 Therefore also we make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well pleasing to him.
Ko ia ʻoku mau holi ai, koeʻuhi, ka mau ka ʻi heni pe mamaʻo atu, ke lelei ʻakimautolu kiate ia.
10 For we must all be revealed before the judgment seat of Christ that each one may receive the things in the body according to what he has done, whether good or bad.
He kuo pau ʻe fakahā ʻakitautolu kotoa pē ʻi he ʻao ʻoe nofoʻanga fakamaau ʻo Kalaisi; koeʻuhi ke maʻu taki taha kotoa pē ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa naʻa ne fai ʻi he sino, pe ko ha lelei ia pe ko ha kovi.
11 Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we persuade men, but we are revealed to God, and I hope that we are revealed also in your consciences.
Ko ia ʻi he ʻemau ʻilo ʻae houhau ʻoe ʻEiki, ʻoku mau fakalotoʻi ʻae kakai; ka kuo fakahā atu ʻakimautolu ki he ʻOtua; pea ʻoku ou pehē, kuo fakahā atu ki homou loto foki.
12 For we are not commending ourselves to you again, but speak as giving you occasion of boasting on our behalf, that you may have something to answer those who boast in appearance and not in heart.
He ʻoku ʻikai te mau toe fakaongolelei atu ʻakimautolu kiate kimoutolu, kae tuku ke mou vikiviki koeʻuhi ko kimautolu, pea ke mou maʻu ha tali kiate kinautolu ʻoku vikiviki fakamamata, kae ʻikai ʻi he loto.
13 For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God. Or if we are of sober mind, it is for you.
He kapau kuo mau vale, ʻoku ʻi he ʻOtua pe: pea kapau ʻoku mau poto, ko e meʻa ia kiate kimoutolu.
14 For the love of Christ compels us; because we judge thus: that one died for all, therefore all died.
He ʻoku fakafeingaʻi ʻakimautolu ʻe he ʻofa ʻa Kalaisi; he ʻoku pehē homau loto, kapau naʻe pekia ʻae tokotaha koeʻuhi ko e kakai kotoa pē, pea tā naʻe mate kotoa pē:
15 He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.
Pea naʻe pekia ia maʻae kakai kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ko kinautolu ʻoku moʻui, ke ʻoua naʻa nau toe moʻui kiate kinautolu, ka kiate ia naʻe pekia maʻanautolu, pea toetuʻu hake.
16 Therefore we know no one according to the flesh from now on. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.
Ko ia ʻoku ngata heni, ʻoku ʻikai te mau ʻilo fakakakano pe ha tokotaha: ʻio, naʻa mo Kalaisi, kapau naʻa mau ʻilo fakakakano ia, kuo ngata, ʻoku ʻikai te mau kei ʻilo pehē ia.
17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new.
Ko ia kapau ʻoku ʻia Kalaisi ha taha, ko e fakatupu foʻou ia: kuo mole atu ʻae ngaahi meʻa motuʻa; vakai, kuo hoko ʻo foʻou ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē.
18 But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation;
Pea ʻoku mei he ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻa ne fakalelei ʻakimautolu kiate ia ʻia Sisu Kalaisi, pea kuo ne tuku kiate kimautolu ʻae fakamatala ʻoe fakalelei;
19 namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses, and having committed to us the word of reconciliation.
Koeʻuhi naʻe ʻia Kalaisi ʻae ʻOtua, ʻo ne fakalelei ʻa māmani kiate ia, ʻo ʻikai lau kiate kinautolu ʻenau ngaahi fai hala; pea kuo ne tuku kiate kimautolu ʻae fakaongoongo ʻoe fakalelei.
20 We are therefore ambassadors on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us: we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
Pea ko eni, ko e kau faifekau ʻakimautolu koeʻuhi ko Kalaisi, ʻo hangē ʻoku fakakolekole ʻae ʻOtua ʻiate kimautolu: ʻoku mau kole ko e fetongi ʻo Kalaisi, mou fakalelei mo e ʻOtua.
21 For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
He naʻa ne ngaohi ia, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai haʻane angahala, koe feilaulau ʻi he angahala koeʻuhi ko kitautolu; kae hoko ai ʻakitautolu ko e māʻoniʻoni ʻae ʻOtua ʻiate ia.
