2 Corinthians 1

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the assembly of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in the whole of Achaia:

Paulu aposteli Jesu Kristi nípa ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run, àti Timotiu arákùnrin wá, Sí ìjọ Ọlọ́run tí ó wà ní Kọrinti pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́ tí ó wà ní gbogbo Akaia:

2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Oore-ọ̀fẹ́ sí yín àti àlàáfíà láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run Baba wa, àti Jesu Kristi Olúwa.

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,

Olùbùkún ni Ọlọ́run, àti Baba Jesu Kristi Olúwa wa, Baba ìyọ́nú, àti Ọlọ́run ìtùnú gbogbo.

4 who comforts us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

Ẹni tí ń tù wá nínú ni gbogbo ìdààmú wa, ki àwa pẹ̀lú lè máa tu àwọn tí ó wá nínú ìdààmú nínú, nípá ìtùnú náà ti a fi ń tú àwa fúnra wa nínú láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run wá.

5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound to us, even so our comfort also abounds through Christ.

Nítorí pé bí àwa ti pín nínú ìjìyà Kristi, gẹ́gẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ nì ìtùnú wa dí púpọ̀ pẹ̀lú nípa Kristi.

6 But if we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation. If we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you the patient enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer.

Ṣùgbọ́n bí a bá sì ń pọ́n wa lójú, ó jẹ́ fún ìtùnú àti ìgbàlà yín; tàbí bi a bá ń tù wá nínú, ó jẹ́ fún ìtùnú yín ti ń ṣiṣẹ́ sùúrù láti mú yin ní irú ìfaradà ìyà kan náà ti àwa pẹ̀lú ń jẹ́.

7 Our hope for you is steadfast, knowing that, since you are partakers of the sufferings, so you are also of the comfort.

Àti pé ìrètí wa nípa tiyín dúró ṣinṣin, àwa si mọ̀ pé, bí ẹ̀yin ti jẹ alábápín nínú ìyà wa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ̀yin ń pín nínú ìtùnú náà pẹ̀lú.

8 For we do not desire to have you uninformed, brothers, concerning our affliction which happened to us in Asia: that we were weighed down exceedingly, beyond our power, so much that we despaired even of life.

Arákùnrin àti arábìnrin, àwa kò fẹ́ kí ẹ̀yin jẹ́ òpè nípa wàhálà tí ó dé bá wa ní agbègbè Asia, ní ti pé a pọ́n wa lójú gidigidi rékọjá agbára ìfaradà wa, tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ìrètí kò tilẹ̀ sí fún ẹ̀mí wa mọ́.

9 Yes, we ourselves have had the sentence of death within ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead,

Nítòótọ́, nínú ọkàn wa a tilẹ̀ ní ìmọ̀lára wí pé a tí gba ìdálẹ́bi ikú, ṣùgbọ́n èyí farahàn láti má mú wa gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ara wa bí kò ṣe Ọlọ́run tí ń jí òkú dìde.

10 who delivered us out of so great a death, and does deliver, on whom we have set our hope that he will also still deliver us,

Ẹni tí ó gbà wá kúrò nínú irú ikú tí ó tóbi bẹ́ẹ̀, yóò sí tún gbà wá; òun ní àwa gbẹ́kẹ̀lé pé yóò sí máa gbà wá síbẹ̀síbẹ̀,

11 you also helping together on our behalf by your supplication; that, for the gift given to us by means of many, thanks may be given by many persons on your behalf.

bí ẹ̀yin pẹ̀lú ti ń fi àdúrà yín ràn wá lọ́wọ́. Àti pé ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn ni yóò dúpẹ́ nítorí wa fún oore-ọ̀fẹ́ ojúrere tí a rí gbà nípa ìdáhùn sí àdúrà ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn.

12 For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience that in holiness and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we behaved ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you.

Nítorí èyí ní ìṣògo wá, ẹ̀rí láti inú ọkàn wa pẹ̀lú si jẹ́rìí wí pé àwa ń gbé ìgbésí ayé tí ó ní ìtumọ̀ pàápàá jùlọ nínú ìbágbépọ̀ wa pẹ̀lú yín, nínú ìwà mímọ́ àti òtítọ́ láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run wá. Kì í ṣe nípa ọgbọ́n ti ara ni àwa ń ṣe èyí bí kò ṣe nípa oore-ọ̀fẹ́ Ọlọ́run.

13 For we write no other things to you than what you read or even acknowledge, and I hope you will acknowledge to the end—

Nítorí pé àwa kò kọ̀wé ohun tí eyín kò lè kà àti ni mòye rẹ̀ sí yín. Mo sì tún ní ìrètí wí pé.

14 as also you acknowledged us in part—that we are your boasting, even as you also are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus.

Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀yin pẹ̀lú ti ní ìmọ̀ nípa wa ní apá kan, bákan náà ni ẹ ó ní ìmọ̀ lẹ́kùnrẹ́rẹ́ tí ẹ ó sì fi wá yangàn, bí àwa pẹ̀lú yóò ṣe fi yín yangàn ní ọjọ́ Jesu Olúwa.

15 In this confidence, I was determined to come first to you, that you might have a second benefit,

Nítorí mo ní ìdánilójú yìí wí pé, mo pinnu láti kọ́kọ́ bẹ̀ yín wò kí ẹ lè jẹ àǹfààní ìgbà méjì.

16 and by you to pass into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and to be sent forward by you on my journey to Judea.

Mo pinnu láti bẹ̀ yín wò ní ìrìnàjò mi sí Makedonia àti láti tún bẹ̀ yín wò nígbà tí mo bá ń padà bọ̀ láti Makedonia àti wí pé kí ẹ̀yin kí ó lè rán mi láti ọ̀dọ̀ yín ní ìrìnàjò mi sí Judea.

17 When I therefore planned this, did I show fickleness? Or the things that I plan, do I plan according to the flesh, that with me there should be the “Yes, yes” and the “No, no?”

Nítorí náà nígbà tí èmi ń gbèrò bẹ́ẹ̀, èmi ha ṣiyèméjì bí? Tàbí àwọn ohun tí mo pinnu, mo ha pinnu wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ti ará bí, pé kí ó jẹ́ “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ní, bẹ́ẹ̀ ní” àti “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́”?

18 But as God is faithful, our word toward you was not “Yes and no.”

Ṣùgbọ́n bí Ọlọ́run tí jẹ́ olóòtítọ́, ọ̀rọ̀ wa fún yín kí í ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àti bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́.

19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us—by me, Silvanus, and Timothy—was not “Yes and no,” but in him is “Yes.”

Nítorí pé Jesu Kristi, Ọmọ Ọlọ́run, ẹni tí a tí wàásù rẹ̀ láàrín yín nípasẹ̀ èmí àti Silfanu àti Timotiu, kì í ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ ni bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, ṣùgbọ́n nínú rẹ̀ ni bẹ́ẹ̀ ní.

20 For however many are the promises of God, in him is the “Yes.” Therefore also through him is the “Amen”, to the glory of God through us.

Nítorí tí gbogbo ìlérí Ọlọ́run dí bẹ́ẹ̀ ni nínú Kristi. Nítorí ìdí èyí ní a ṣe ń wí pé “Àmín” nípasẹ̀ rẹ̀ sí ògo Ọlọ́run.

21 Now he who establishes us with you in Christ and anointed us is God,

Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí, Ọlọ́run ni ó fi ẹsẹ̀ wa múlẹ̀ pẹ̀lú yín nínú Kristi, Òun ni ó ti fi àmì òróró yàn wá,

22 who also sealed us and gave us the down payment of the Spirit in our hearts.

ó sì fi èdìdì rẹ̀ dì wá pẹ̀lú, ó sì tí fi Ẹ̀mí rẹ́ sí wa ní ọkàn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀rí ìdánilójú ohun tí ó ń bọ̀.

23 But I call God for a witness to my soul, that to spare you, I did not come to Corinth.

Mo sì pe Ọlọ́run ṣe ẹlẹ́rìí ọkàn mi pé nítorí àti dá yín sí ní èmi kò ṣe padà sí Kọrinti.

24 We do not control your faith, but are fellow workers with you for your joy. For you stand firm in faith.

Kì í ṣe nítorí tí àwa jẹ gàba lórí ìgbàgbọ́ yín, ṣùgbọ́n àwa ń ṣiṣẹ́ pọ̀ pẹ̀lú yín fún ayọ̀ yín nítorí nípa ìgbàgbọ́ ni ẹ̀yin dúró ṣinṣin.
