2 Korintoarrei 8
1 Iaquin eraciten drauçuegu bada, anayeác, Macedoniaco Elicey eman içan çayen Iaincoaren gratiá:
Moreover, brethren, we make known to you the grace of God which hath been given in the churches of Macedonia;
2 Nola afflictionezco phorogança handitan hayén alegranciázco abundantiá, eta hayén paubrecia beherá abundant içan den hayén prompt içatearen abrastassunetan:
how that in much proof of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.
3 Ecen testificatzen dut, ahalaren arauez, eta ahalaz garaitic, gogatsu içan diradela:
For according to their power, I bear witness, yea and beyond their power, [they gave] of their own accord,
4 Othoitz handirequin othoitz eguiten ceraucutela, sainduey eguiten, çayen aiutaren gratiá eta communicationea, recebi gueneçan.
beseeching us with much entreaty in regard of this grace and the fellowship in the ministering to the saints:
5 Eta eztute sperança guenduen beçala eguin, baina bere buruäc eman drautzate lehenic Iaunari, eta guero guri, Iaincoaren vorondatez.
and [this], not as we had hoped, but first they gave their own selves to the Lord, and to us through the will of God.
6 Tite exhorta gueneçançát, nola lehenetic hassi vkan baitu, hala acaba-ere leçan çuec baithan gratia haur-ere.
Insomuch that we exhorted Titus, that as he had made a beginning before, so he would also complete in you this grace also.
7 Bada gauça gucietan abundos çareten beçala fedez, eta hitzez, eta eçagutzez, eta diligentia oroz, eta çuen gureganaco charitatez, eguiçue gratia hunetan-ere abundos çareten.
But as ye abound in everything, [in] faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and [in] all earnestness, and [in] your love to us, [see] that ye abound in this grace also.
8 Eztut manamenduz erraiten, baina bercén diligentiáz çuen charitateco leyaltatearen-ere phorogatzeagatic.
I speak not by way of commandment, but as proving through the earnestness of others the sincerity also of your love.
9 Ecen eçagutzen duçue Iesus Christ gure Iaunaren gratiá, nola çuengatic paubre eguin içan den abrats celaric: haren paubreciáz çuec abrats cindeiztençát.
For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might become rich.
10 Eta gauça hunetan conseillu emaiten dut: ecen haur çuen probetchutaco da, chazdanic hassi içan cinetenón, éz solament eguiten, baina nahi vkaiten-ere.
And herein I give [my] judgment: for this is expedient for you, who were the first to make a beginning a year ago, not only to do, but also to will.
11 Orain bada eguite bera-ere acaba eçaçue, nolaco içan baita nahiaren gogo presta, halaco biz acabatzea-ere vkanaren arauez.
But now complete the doing also; that as [there was] the readiness to will, so [there may be] the completion also out of your ability.
12 Ecen baldin aitzinetic bada gogo prest içatea, nehor duenaren arauez gogaraco da, eta ez eztuenaren arauez.
For if the readiness is there, [it is] acceptable according as [a man] hath, not according as [he] hath not.
13 Ecen ezta haur bercéc solagemendu dutençát, eta çuec aurizqui çaiteztençát, baina egoalqui dembora hunetan çuen abundantiác suppli beça hayén peitutassuna.
For [I say] not [this] that others may be eased [and] ye distressed;
14 Hayén abundantiác-ere çuen peitutassuna suppli deçançát, egoaltassun eguin dadinçát.
but by equality: your abundance [being a supply] at this present time for their want, that their abundance also may become [a supply] for your want; that there may be equality:
15 Scribatua den beçala, Anhitz bildu çuenac, eztu deus vkan soberaturic: eta guti çuenac, eztu vkan gutiegui.
as it is written, He that [gathered] much had nothing over; and he that [gathered] little had no lack.
But thanks be to God, who putteth the same earnest care for you into the heart of Titus.
17 Ceren ene exhortationea gogaraco içan baitzayó, eta affectionatuago içanez bere buruz çuetara ethorri içan baita.
For he accepted indeed our exhortation; but being himself very earnest, he went forth unto you of his own accord.
18 Eta igorri vkan-dugu harequin batean anayea, ceinen laudorioa baita Euangelioan Eliça gucietan:
And we have sent together with him the brother whose praise in the gospel [is spread] through all the churches;
19 (Eta ez solament laudatu, baina elegitu-ere içan da Elicéz gure bidageco lagun, guçaz administratzen den gratia hunequin Iaun beraren gloriatan eta çuen gogo prestaren cerbitzutan)
and not only so, but who was also appointed by the churches to travel with us in [the matter of] this grace, which is ministered by us to the glory of the Lord, and [to show] our readiness:
20 Ihes eguiten draucagula huni, nehorc vitupera ezgaitzan guçaz administratzen den abundantia hunetan:
avoiding this, that any man should blame us in [the matter of] this bounty which is ministered by us:
21 Eta procuratzen dugula on dena, ez Iaunaren aitzinean solament, baina guiçonén aitzinean-ere.
for we take thought for things honorable, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.
22 Eta igorri dugu hequin gure anayea, cein experimentatu baitugu anhitzetan anhitz gauçatan diligent, eta orain vnguiz diligentago çuetan dudan confidança handiagatic.
And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have many times proved earnest in many things, but now much more earnest, by reason of the great confidence which [he hath] in you.
23 Bada Titez den becembatean ene lagun da eta çuec baithan aiutaçale: eta gure anayéz den becembatean, Elicén embachadore dirade eta Christen gloria.
Whether [any inquire] about Titus, [he is] my partner and [my] fellow-worker to you-ward; or our brethren, [they are] the messengers of the churches, [they are] the glory of Christ.
24 Bada, çuen charitatearen eta gure çueçazco gloriatzearen phorogançá eracutsaçué hetara Elicén aitzinean.
Show ye therefore unto them in the face of the churches the proof of your love, and of our glorying on your behalf.
