2 Ukorintiyawa 4
1 Bara nani ti wa dini ka katwaw, nene ti lanza feu ba.
Therefore, being engaged in this service and being mindful of the mercy which has been shown us, we are not cowards.
2 Imemako nani, tima sunu tibau nlanzun cin nin too nati gheshin, nanit sosin nanya tiwankari b, tutung na ti miin li gbulan Kutelle zemzem ba, Nbelin kiden, tiduro atibite kibinai nanit vat nizi Kutell.
Nay, we have renounced the secrecy which marks a feeling of shame. We practice no cunning tricks, nor do we adulterate God's Message. But by a full clear statement of the truth we strive to commend ourselves in the presence of God to every human conscience.
3 Bara nanin iwase kadura bite tursu, katurusun kiti nale na idin kuzari.
If, however, the meaning of our Good News has been veiled, the veil has been on the hearts of those who are on the way to perdition,
4 Kusari mine, kutelles iyi ulele mali tursu nanin iyizu mine bara na iyasa iyene nkanan kadura ngogon Kristi, na amere tikana Kutelle. (aiōn g165)
in whom the god of this present age has blinded their unbelieving minds so as to shut out the sunshine of the Good News of the glory of the Christ, who is the image of God. (aiōn g165)
5 Bara na tidin dursuzu ati bite ba baranane Yesu Kristi nafo Ucif nin nati biteb nafo acin mine bara Yesu.
(For we do not proclaim ourselves, but we proclaim Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your bondservants for the sake of Jesus.)
6 Bara Kutellere na woro, ''Nkanang ma dak nanya sirti “amani na duro nanya nibinai bite an ni nkanang nyiru ngongon Kutelle nbun Yesu Krist.
For God who said, "Out of darkness let light shine," is He who has shone in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God's glory, which is radiant on the face of Christ.
7 Bara nani tidinin nimunile na tina ceu nanya nasul tiwi, bara na udi feing au likara lidia dikiti Kutelle na arik ba.
But we have this treasure in a fragile vase of clay, in order that the surpassing greatness of the power may be seen to belong to God, and not to originate in us.
8 Tidin lanzu npapaat nanya tidina va. Bara nanin na kata likara bite ba nibinai bite fit, nati lanza feu ba.
We are hard pressed, yet never in absolute distress; perplexed, yet never utterly baffled;
9 Ishaa nari na tisuna b, idin wulzu nari na i molo ba.
pursued, yet never left unsuccoured; struck to the ground, yet never slain;
10 tidin tizu nidawo bite nanya nkul Yesu, Bara ti se ulai kitene Yesu ni lai me na ana ura nidawo nanit.
always, wherever we go, carrying with us in our bodies the putting to death of Jesus, so that in our bodies it may also be clearly shown that Jesus lives.
11 Arik ale na tidinin ninlai idin nawu nari udun kul bara Yesu ulai Yesu nan duro nidowo bite n anit.
For we, alive though we are, are continually surrendering ourselves to death for the sake of Jesus, so that in this mortal nature of ours it may also be clearly shown that Jesus lives.
12 Bara nani, ukull di katua nanya bit barnanin ulai di katwa nanya min.
Thus we are constantly dying, while you are in full enjoyment of Life.
13 Bara nani ti di nin fip inyinu sa uyenu mirum vcindu ilele na iwa yertin “in yin, nanere indin belin belu “. Ti yinia tutung nanere tidin belu.
But possessing the same Spirit of faith as he who wrote, "I believed, and therefore I have spoken," we also believe, and therefore we speak.
14 Ti yiru ule na ana fighe Ucif bite Yesu ama kuru afiya nari nin gh, ama kuru adak nin ngherik nan nghenu udu ubunme.
For we know that He who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will raise us also to be with Jesus, and will cause both us and you to stand in His own presence.
15 Vat nimong bara fere nafo na ubolu Kutelle i bagilno unin udu anit gbardan ugodinya ba kpinu udu ngongon Kutelle.
For everything is for your sakes, in order that grace, being more richly bestowed because of the thanksgivings of the increased number, may more and more promote the glory of God.
16 tina lanza fiu b, kodayike tidin malsu ndas, nanya nidowo bite tidin kpilzinu apese ko kishi.
Therefore we are not cowards. Nay, even though our outward man is wasting away, yet our inward man is being renewed day by day.
