2 Ukorintiyawa 10

1 Meng Bulu, men litinin din fuo minu acar, bara utoltinu liti nin sheu in Kristi na men na kifo kubi kona iwa di nan ghin, bara indin fuo figiri ni ghinu kubi kona indi nan ghinu ba.

This is me Paul, personally appealing to you through Christ's kindness and gentleness, the one who is “shy” when I have to face you but who is “bold” when I'm not there.

2 Idin fuo minu acar, na iwadi nan ghin, na ina yitya in pun figiri nin nayi ale na uca, bara mma yinu ba nin na le na iworo arik tin cin nanya kidawo.

I'm pleading with you, so that the next time I'm with you I won't have to be as tough as I think I'll have to be, boldly dealing with those who think we behave in worldly ways.

3 BAara na tidin cin nanya kidawo, aina likum bite kin kidawari ba.

Even though we live in this world, we don't fight as the world does.

4 Bara imong kabung bite in kidawari ba. Bara nanin ti dini nimong likara kitene na nazu adadu likar, na idin dasu nin ma yartdan ma hem '

Our weapons are not of this world but God's mighty power that destroys fortresses of human thinking, demolishing misleading theories.

5 Tutung tidin nanzu vat nimon ile na imafitu kitene Kutell, tiyiru vat nkpilzu usu kucin nruu Kristi.

Every high wall that stands tall and proud against the knowledge of God is knocked down. Every rebel idea is captured and brought into obedient agreement with Christ.

6 Tidin caa ubucu vat nittwa isalin ni liti iwase ati uni nati mune ukulo

When you are completely obeying Christ then we're ready to punish any disobedience.

7 ilemong na idi cana ibunmine. Andi umong yina ayita nafo Kristi na yita nafo Kristiare wang.

Look at what's staring you in the face! Anyone who considers that they belong to Christ should think again—just as they belong to Christ, so do we!

8 Bara na inwa riu figiri kang mbelin g likara bite lo na Ucif wani ike minu mun na inanza minun b, na mba incin ba

Even though I may seem to be boasting a little too much about our authority, I'm not embarrassed about it. The Lord gave this authority to us to build you up, not to knock you down.

9 Na indi nin su iyene nafo indin ziu minu nin miyert nin ba.

I'm not trying to scare you by my letters.

10 Bara amung din belun ''iyert me din ziu nin likr, bara na iyarnu adi nin nagan ba uliru na me lien ulazu ba “

People say, “His letters are tough and severe, but in person he's feeble, and he's a useless speaker.”

11 Na anite yinin nilemong na tibenle brq nin bung na ti diku b, imong irum mere ti ba suu kubi ko na tidi kikane.

People like that should realize that what we say through letters when we're not there we will do when we are there!

12 Natina duo pii ba ipiru natibite, konin batizu nati bit nin nale na idin foo figi mine. Bara kbi kona idin gwadizu atimine nin namonn, nin nani ima se uyenju seng ba.

We're not so arrogant to compare ourselves with those who think so much of themselves. Those who measure themselves by themselves, and compare themselves with themselves, are really foolish!

13 Na ariki wasa ti foo figiri ti kata likara ni lemong na ti wasa tui suu b, bara na tina cinu kusari ko na Kutelle b, bara na tiduro nani har ti da duru anunku.

But we won't boast about ourselves in extravagant terms that can't be measured. We simply measure what we have done using God's system of measurement that he gave us—and that includes you.

14 Bara na tina kata ti kala ati bite ba na tima dak kiti min, arikere wa di anan bunu nse minu nlirun Kristi.

We are not over-extending our authority in saying this, as if we didn't get as far as you, for we did get to you and share with you the good news of Christ.

15 Nati din foo figiri tikata likara bite ba barabkatwa na mon, bara na tidin cisu kibinai nafo na uyinu sa uyenu mine din kunju nin min bit ngira katwa we bapunu kidawo gbradan.

We're not boasting in extravagant terms that can't be measured, claiming credit for what others have done. On the contrary, we hope that as your trust in God grows, our work among you will greatly increase.

16 Ariki wang ba belu uliru Kutelle tikata kika na anung na dur. Nati ma foo figiri mbelen katwa ka na ina su kusarin na mong ba.

Then we can share the good news in places way beyond you, without boasting about what's already been done where someone else has worked.

17 Bara nanin ule na adin foo figiri na afoo figiri nanya Ucif.

“If anyone wants to boast, boast about the Lord.”

18 Bara na ule na ana uti lidu amere asa so cikilari litime barananin lo na cikilarari na na yinin mu.

It's not those who praise themselves that are respected, but those that the Lord praises.
