2 Ukorintiyawa 12
1 Dole in foo figir, bara nani na mma se imong ku b, bara nani unuzu ina tiubun namoro nin belu nanya unuzun Cikilari.
As it is necessary for me to take glory to myself, though it is not a good thing, I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
2 Inyiru unit nanya Kristi nanya na kus tkure min nanase na ana kata sa nanya kidawo sa indas kidaw, nan meng yiru ba Kutelle yiru iwa yanghe udu nanya kitime kin taat.
I have knowledge of a man in Christ, fourteen years back (if he was in the body, or out of the body, I am not able to say, but God only), who was taken up to the third heaven.
3 Tutung inyiru umong unit sa naya kidawo sa indas kidawo, na meng yiru ba Kutelle yiru.
And I have knowledge of such a man (if he was in the body, or out of the body, I am not able to say, but God only),
4 ulena iwa yonghe udu kitene ule na awa di nin imong ilau kang na umon wasa a benle ba.
How he was taken up into Paradise, and words came to his ears which may not be said, and which man is not able to say.
5 Kitenen leli unitere men ma foo figiri. Bara na nma foo figiri nin litinin ba se dei bara lidarni ning.
On account of such a one I will have glory: for myself I will take no glory, but only in my feeble body.
6 Andi indinin su in foo figiri. nan ma suo ulalan ba, bara idin belu kidegenere. Bara nani ima cinu ufoo figiri nanumon ba kpilizinu litinighe gbardan, na nafo idin yenju sa idin lanzuyi ba.
For if I had a desire to take credit to myself, it would not be foolish, for I would be saying what is true: but I will not, for fear that I might seem to any man more than he sees me to be, or has word from me that I am.
7 Sa bara na mgbardan inda ciu mbele. Baranani na mma fiwu aba da nin fiwu liti ba i wa tiyifimat kidowo, kadura nnuzu shidtan idak ida firume, bara nwa foo figiri kang.
And because the revelations were so very great, in order that I might not be overmuch lifted up, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, one sent from Satan to give me pain.
8 Njun tat ina foo acara nin kiti Kutelle akalai mung ile imone nanya nin
And about this thing I made request to the Lord three times that it might be taken away from me.
9 Amini na beli “ubolu nin batin fi” Bara na likara din kue naanya lidarne” too mma kpinu ufoo figiri nanya nanya lidarni ning bara likaara Kristin soo kitene ning
And he said to me, My grace is enough for you, for my power is made complete in what is feeble. Most gladly, then, will I take pride in my feeble body, so that the power of Christ may be on me.
10 Bara nani ubatine bara Krist, nanya lidarni, nanya nitop nnya nniy, nanya tinana nayii, nanya nkunekun, bara nani vat kubi kone diri likar, asa nta agang.
So I take pleasure in being feeble, in unkind words, in needs, in cruel attacks, in troubles, on account of Christ: for when I am feeble, then am I strong.
11 In nasoo ulalan! anunghere natiy, bara anunghere wa ruyi, bara na nwa di ko cun kadas nang nadidiya nansn kadura ba barana mmen imonghari ba
I have been forced by you to become foolish, though it was right for my praise to have come from you: for in no way was I less than the chief of the Apostles, though I am nothing.
12 Kidegen nalap nan kadura wadi kiti mine nin nayashau vat, alap nin nalajibi nin nitwa ni didiya.
Truly the signs of an Apostle were done among you in quiet strength, with wonders and acts of power.
13 Bara na anung wadi iyiziari sa uanpani nafo nzisin natii alauw, bara na uwa so minu kutura ba? shawang ninmile utanue!
For what is there in which you were made less than the other churches, but in the one thing that I was not a trouble to you? Let me have forgiveness for this wrong.
14 Yeneng! Mba dak minu tutung unta, na ima lawu minu kutura ba bara na idinin su ni mong mine ba anunghere ndi nin suw. Nanono ba cisu bara acife ba bara nani acifari ba cisu bara n nono.
This is now the third time that I am ready to come to you; and I will not be a trouble to you: my desire is for you, not for your property: for it is not the children's business to make store for their fathers, but the fathers for the children.
15 Nna yitu nin nayi abo kang in wultun bara anunghe uwa biiu usumine kang, ita usu ninghe baata?
And I will gladly give all I have for your souls. If I have the more love for you, am I to be loved the less?
16 Bara na udi nani, nanan ti minu kutura nati ba. Bara na meng di jinjin, mere na fo minu nin kinu.
But let it be so, that I was not a trouble to you myself; but (someone may say) being false, I took you with deceit.
17 In wa di kitene mine na uwa tuu umong udak kiti mine.
Did I make a profit out of you by any of those whom I sent to you?
18 Iwa ti Titus ku adak kiti mine inin tuu kani gwane ninghe, Titus se wa di kitene mine? Na tiwa cinu libau lirumme baa? Na tiwa cinuu nin niti nirume ba?
I gave orders to Titus, and I sent the brother with him. Did Titus make any profit out of you? were we not guided by the same Spirit, in the same ways?
19 Idin cisu kokube tidin sesu atibite kiti mine? Nbun Kutelle tidin nin Kristi mbelu vat nimon bara uke minere.
It may seem to you that all this time we have been attempting to put ourselves in the right; but we are saying these things before God in Christ. For all things, dear brothers, are for your profit.
20 Idin cun fiu nwa dak nan mase minu nafo na idinin suwe, Na anung wang masai nafo na idinin suwe ba, au ti wase mayardang inshina nayi usu liti kubellum, ufoo figiri nin salin caunu.
For I have a fear that, when I come, you may not be answering to my desire, and that I may not be answering to yours; that there may be fighting, hate, angry feeling, divisions, evil talk about others, secrets, thoughts of pride, outbursts against authority;
21 Indin lanzu fiu nwa kpilin, Kutelle nighe uruu nighe kiti mine, mma nin gilu bara mgbardan mine naina malu ti kulapi nin burnu na inin na pizeru usunu nsalin lau nin nuzu nin na wani a hem nin su nimong nyi na iwadi isuzu ba.
And that when I come again, my God may put me to shame among you, and I may have grief for those who have done wrong before and have had no regret for their unclean ways, and for the evil desires of the flesh to which they have given way.
