2 Korin 2

1 Palungsethaih hoiah nangcae khae kang zoh let han ai boeh, tiah lok ka takroek boeh.

And I decided this to myself, not to come again to you in sorrow,

2 Nangcae palung kang set o sak ving nahaeloe, palung ka setsak ih kaminawk mah ai ah loe, mi mah maw kai palung anghoesak tih?

for if I make you sorry, then who is he who is making me glad, except he who is made sorry by me?

3 Kang hoehaih loe nangcae boih anghoehaih ah oh, tiah oephaih ka tawnh, kang zoh naah, kai anghoesak kaminawk khae hoiah palungsethaih ka hnuk moeng han ai ah to tiah ca kang tarik o.

And I wrote to you this same thing, that having come, I may not have sorrow from them of whom it was necessary [for] me to have joy, having confidence in you all, that my joy is of you all,

4 Nangcae nuiah kating ai amlunghaih ka tawnh, tiah na panoek o moe, palung na set o han ai ih ni patangkhanghaih, poek amtanghaih, paroeai mikkhraetui krakhaih hoiah ca kang tarik o.

for out of much tribulation and pressure of heart I wrote to you through many tears, not that you might be made sorry, but that you might know the love that I have more abundantly toward you.

5 Nangcae thung ih kami maeto mah palung saesak nahaeloe, anih mah kai palung na saesak ai, nangcae thung ih thoemto kaminawk mah ni palung ang set o sak: nangcae raihaih tongsak han ka koeh ai.

And if anyone has caused sorrow, he has not caused sorrow to me, but in part, that I may not burden you all;

6 Kapop kami mah khaeh ih lok baktiah ni kami maeto mah sakpazae ih hmuen pongah danpaek han oh.

sufficient to such a one is this punishment, that [is] by the greater part,

7 Palungsethaih mah pazawk hmoek han ai ah, to baktih zaehaih sah kami to buenglueng tamlet ah na tahmen o moe, na pathloep o lat han oh.

so that, on the contrary, [it is] rather for you to forgive and to comfort, lest by over abundant sorrow such a one may be swallowed up;

8 To pongah anih na palunghaih to tangtang ah amtuengsak hanah kang pacae o.

for this reason, I call on you to confirm love to him,

9 Hmuen boih ah ka thuih ih lok baktiah na sak o maw sah ai, tiah panoek hanah hae ca hae kang tarik o.

for this also I wrote, that I might know your proof, whether you are obedient in regard to all things.

10 Zaehaih na tahmen o ih kami to, kaimah doeh ka tahmen toeng: kawbaktih zaehaih doeh ka tahmen nahaeloe, nangcae rang hoiah ni Kri ah ka tahmen:

And to whom you forgive anything—I also; for I also, if I have forgiven anything, to whom I have forgiven [it], because of you—in the person of Christ—[I forgive it, ]

11 to tih ai nahaeloe Setan mah aicae pazawk moeng tih: aicae loe anih pacaenghaih panoek kami ah ni a oh o.

that we may not be over-reached by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes.

12 Kri tamthanglok hoih thuih hanah Troas vangpui ah ka caeh naah, Angraeng mah kai hanah loklam ang paongh pae,

And having come to Troas for the good news of the Christ, and a door having been opened to me in the LORD,

13 kam nawk Titu to ka hnu ai pongah, poek monghaih roe ka tawn ai: to pongah kalah hnukbang kaminawk to ka caehtaak moe, kaimah loe Macedonia prae ah ka caeh.

I have not had rest to my spirit, on my not finding my brother Titus, but having taken leave of them, I went forth to Macedonia;

14 Anih panoekhaih loe hmuihoih ah oh moe, ahmuen kruekah Kri panoekhaih pungsak hanah, Sithaw mah aicae abom pongah, vaihi Kri ah aicae han taahaih hnusakkung, Sithaw khaeah oephaih om nasoe.

and to God [is] thanks, who at all times is leading us in triumph in the Christ, and the fragrance of His knowledge He is revealing through us in every place;

15 Pahlong kaminawk hoi kanghmaa kaminawk hanah, aicae loe Sithaw khaeah Kri ih hmuihoih ah ni a oh o:

we are a refreshing fragrance to God because of Christ, in those being saved, and in those being lost;

16 aicae loe anghmaa kami maeto hanah duek khoek to duekhaih hmuihoih ah a oh o, kalah pahlong kaminawk hanah loe hinghaih paekkung hinghaih hmuihoih ah a oh o. To tih nahaeloe hae hmuen hoiah akoep kami mi maw kaom?

to one, indeed, a fragrance of death to death, and to the other, a fragrance of life to life; and who is sufficient for these things?

17 Aicae loe Sithaw ih lok amrosak, pop parai kaminawk baktiah a om o ai: palung angpaekhaih hoiah Sithaw koehhaih baktiah ni, Sithaw hmaa ah Kri tamthanglok to a thuih o.

For we are not as the many, adulterating the word of God, but as of sincerity—but as of God; in the presence of God, in Christ we speak.
