2 Corinthians 1

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the assembly of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in the whole of Achaia:

PAULUS wanporon en Iesus Kristus amen pan kupur en Kot o ri atail Timoteus ong momodisou en Kot, me mi Korint o saraui kan karos, me mi Akaia.

2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Mak o popol sang ren Kot Sam atail o atail Kaun Iesus Kristus en mi re omail.

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,

Meid iasanai Kot o Sam en atail Kaun Iesus Kristus, o Sam en kalangan, o Kot en kamait pokon,

4 who comforts us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

Me kin kamakamait kit ni at kamekam kan karos, pwe kit en pil kak kamait ir ala, me mi nan song en kamekam akan karos, ki kamait, me kit kamait kila ren Kot.

5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound to us, even so our comfort also abounds through Christ.

Pwe duen Kristus a kamekam me muladok ong kit, iduen kamait ren Kristus pil itar penang kit.

6 But if we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation. If we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you the patient enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer.

A ma kit pai olar, nan a kin wiaui, pwen kamait o kamaur komail la, mepukat kin wiaui ni omail kanongama ni kalokolok ota, me kit kin kalokolokki.

7 Our hope for you is steadfast, knowing that, since you are partakers of the sufferings, so you are also of the comfort.

O at kaporopor kin komail me tengeteng, pwe se asa, ma komail iang kamekam, komail pil pan iang kamaitala.

8 For we don’t desire to have you uninformed, brothers, concerning our affliction which happened to us in Asia: that we were weighed down exceedingly, beyond our power, so much that we despaired even of life.

Ri ai ol akan, se sota men, komail en sasa duen at kamekam nan Asien o at patau kaualap, lao solar kaporopor en maur at.

9 Yes, we ourselves have had the sentence of death within ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead,

Ari, kit lamedar, me se pan mela. A mepukat wiauier, pwe sen der keleki pein kit, pwe Kot eta, me kin kaiasada me melar akan.

10 who delivered us out of so great a death, and does deliver, on whom we have set our hope that he will also still deliver us,

Me kotin dore kit ala sang mela wet, o a pil pan dore kit ala; o se kaporoporeki, me a pil pan kotin dore kit ala kokolata.

11 you also helping together on our behalf by your supplication; that, for the gift given to us by means of many, thanks may be given by many persons on your behalf.

Komail pil sauasa kit ni omail ngidingid, pwe me toto en danke pweki at pai me se aleer.

12 For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience that in holiness and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we behaved ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you.

Pwe iet kaping pat: Insen at kin kadede ong kit, me se weweideki karakarak o melel en Kot nin sappa o nan pung omail, kaidin ni lolekong en pali uduk, a ki mak en Kot.

13 For we write no other things to you than what you read or even acknowledge, and I hope you will acknowledge to the end—

At inting wong komail kaidin toror sang me komail kin wadok o kamelele. A i kaporoporeki me komail pan kamelele kit kokolata duen akai komail kamelele kit er.

14 as also you acknowledged us in part—that we are your boasting, even as you also are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus.

Pwe kit me kaping pa omail, dueta komail me kaping pat ni ran en Kaun Iesus.

15 In this confidence, I was determined to come first to you, that you might have a second benefit,

A ni kaporopor wet, me i men pwar kilang komail mas o, pwe komail en pur ong pereperen.

16 and by you to pass into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and to be sent forward by you on my journey to Judea.

I ap pan daulul lang komail ni ai pan kolang Masetonien, ap pil puredo re omail sang Masetonien, a komail pan kalua ia lang Iudäa.

17 When I therefore planned this, did I show fickleness? Or the things that I plan, do I plan according to the flesh, that with me there should be the “Yes, yes” and the “No, no?”

A iaduen, ngai me sapung ni ai kileledier mepukat? De i kin kileledi mepukat ni tiak en pali uduk, pwen ei ei o so so tapi sang pein ngai?

18 But as God is faithful, our word toward you was not “Yes and no.”

A Kot me melel, pwe me se indang komail me sota ei o so.

19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us—by me, Silvanus, and Timothy—was not “Yes and no,” but in him is “Yes.”

Pwe sapwilim en Kot Iesus Kristus, me kit padaki ong komail er, ngai, o Silwanus, o Timoteus, i kaidin ei o so, a ei eta re a,

20 For however many are the promises of God, in him is the “Yes.” Therefore also through him is the “Amen”, to the glory of God through us.

Pwe inau en Kot akan karos me ei eta re a o me amen re a, pwe kit en kalinganada Kot.

21 Now he who establishes us with you in Christ and anointed us is God,

A me kin katinai kit o komail pan Kristus o keie kitail er, iei Kot,

22 who also sealed us and gave us the down payment of the Spirit in our hearts.

Me pil kotin kileledier kitail o kotiki ong kitail er komoan Ngen nan mongiong atail.

23 But I call God for a witness to my soul, that to spare you, I didn’t come to Corinth.

A i kin likwir ong Kot me saunkadede en ngen i, me i saikenta pwara wong komail nan Korint, pwe i de katoutoui komail.

24 We don’t control your faith, but are fellow workers with you for your joy. For you stand firm in faith.

Kit sota men poedi omail poson, a kit men sauasa ta omail peren, pwe komail keleki poson.
