2 Corinthians 9
1 It is indeed unnecessary for me to write to you concerning the service to the saints,
विश्वासीहरूको सेवा-कार्यको विषयमा तिमीहरूलाई लेखिरहन म आवश्यक ठान्दिनँ ।
2 for I know your readiness, of which I boast on your behalf to those of Macedonia, that Achaia has been prepared for the past year. Your zeal has stirred up very many of them.
तिमीहरूमा भएको चाहना मलाई थाहा छ, जसको बारेमा माकेडोनियामा भएका मानिसहरूलाई मैले गर्वका साथ बताएँ । गएको वर्षदेखि अखैयामा तयार हुँदै आइरहेको छ भनेर मैले तिनीहरूलाई भनेँ ।
3 But I have sent the brothers so that our boasting on your behalf may not be in vain in this respect, that, just as I said, you may be prepared,
तिमीहरूका निम्ति हामीले गरेको गर्व व्यर्थ नहोस्, र तिमीहरू पनि मैले भने जस्तै गरी तयार होओ भनेर मैले भाइहरूलाई तिमीहरूकहाँ पठाएको छु ।
4 lest by any means, if anyone from Macedonia comes there with me and finds you unprepared, we (to say nothing of you) would be disappointed in this confident boasting.
नत्रता, यदि माकेडोनियाका कोही मसँगै आउँदा तिमीहरू तयार नभएको पाए भने, हामी शर्ममा पर्नेछौँ । तिमीहरूमाथि धेरै भरोसा भएको हुनाले तिमीहरूको बारेमा म केही पनि भन्दिनँ ।
5 I thought it necessary therefore to entreat the brothers that they would go before to you and arrange ahead of time the generous gift that you promised before, that the same might be ready as a matter of generosity, and not of greediness.
त्यसैले, भाइहरूलाई तिमीहरूकहाँ पठाउनलाई आवश्यक ठानेर बिन्ती गरेको छु ताकि तिमीहरूले प्रतिज्ञा गरेको उपहारहरू अगाडि नै प्रबन्ध गर्न सक । यो भेटी करकापले होइन, तर आशिष्को रूपमा तयारी हुन सकोस् भनेर यसो गरिएको हो ।
6 Remember this: he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly. He who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.
यसको अर्थ होः थोरैसँग छर्नेले थोरै बटुल्छ; आशिष् पाउने उद्देश्यले छर्नेले आशिष्कै कटनी गर्छ ।
7 Let each man give according as he has determined in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
हरेकले आफ्नो हृदयमा सङ्कल्प गरेअनुसार देओस् । दुःखित भएर र करकापमा परेर कसैले पनि नदेओस् । खुसीसाथ दिनेलाई परमेश्वरले प्रेम गर्नुहुन्छ ।
8 And God is able to make all grace abound to you, that you, always having all sufficiency in everything, may abound to every good work.
र परमेश्वरले हरेक आशिष्लाई तिमीहरूको निम्ति वृद्धि गर्न सक्नुहुन्छ, ताकि तिमीहरूलाई चाहिने सबै कुरा तिमीहरूले सधैँ प्राप्त गर्न सक । तिमीहरूका असल कामहरू वृद्धि हुन् भनेर यसो हुनेछ ।
9 As it is written, “He has scattered abroad. He has given to the poor. His righteousness remains forever.” (aiōn g165)
यस्तो लेखिएको छः “उहाँले आफ्नो सम्पत्ति बाँडेर गरिबहरूलाई दिनुभएको छ । उहाँको धार्मिकता सधैँभरि रहन्छ ।” (aiōn g165)
10 Now may he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food, supply and multiply your seed for sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness,
छर्नेलाई बिउ र खानाको निम्ति रोटी उपलब्ध गराउनुहुनेले तिमीहरूको बिउ उपलब्ध गराएर वृद्धि पनि गराउनुहुनेछ । उहाँले तिमीहरूको धार्मिकताको फसल प्रशस्ततासँग वृद्धि गराउनुहुनेछ ।
11 you being enriched in everything for all generosity, which produces thanksgiving to God through us.
तिमीहरूले उदारसँग दिन सक भनेर तिमीहरू हर किसिमले धनी तुल्याइनेछौ । यसले हामीद्वारा परमेश्वरप्रति चढाउने धन्यवाद उत्पन्न गराउनेछ ।
12 For this service of giving that you perform not only makes up for lack among the saints, but abounds also through much giving of thanks to God,
किनकि सेवाको काम गर्दा विश्वासीहरूको खाँचो मात्र पुरा हुँदैन । यसले परमेश्वरलाई धन्यवाद दिने काममा वृद्धि गराउँछ ।
13 seeing that through the proof given by this service, they glorify God for the obedience of your confession to the Good News of Christ and for the generosity of your contribution to them and to all,
सेवाको कामले तिमीहरू जाँचिदा र प्रमाणित हुँदा येशू ख्रीष्टको सुसमाचारलाई स्वीकार गर्ने आज्ञाकारिताको कारण तिमीहरूले परमेश्वरलाई पनि महिमित तुल्याउनेछौ । तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई र सबैलाई उदारसँग दिएको भेटीका कारण पनि परमेश्वरलाई महिमित तुल्याउनेछौ ।
14 while they themselves also, with supplication on your behalf, yearn for you by reason of the exceeding grace of God in you.
तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूको चाहना गरेका छन् र तिमीहरूको निम्ति प्रार्थना गरिरहेका छन् । परमेश्वरको महान् अनुग्रहको कारण तिनीहरू यसो गर्छन्, जुन अनुग्रह तिमीहरूमा पनि छ ।
15 Now thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift!
व्यक्त गर्न नसकिने वरदानको लागि परमेश्वरलाई महिमा भएको होस् ।
