< 2 Corinthians 12 >

1 To be boasting, is needful, —it is not, indeed, profitable, yet will I come to visions and revelations of [the] Lord: —
Uplak natu om ngawl in, keima atu in ki suantak tu sia phattuamna om ngawl hi. Topa hong kilaak nate le mangmuna te kong son tu hi.
2 I know a man in Christ, who, fourteen years ago, whether in the body, I know not, or out of the body, I know not, God, knoweth, such a one as this, caught away, as far as the third heaven;
Abosa kum sawm le kum li lai in, Christ sung ah ka heak mihing khat, vantung thuapthum na ah ki la to hi, a pumpi taw ziam, ka son thei bua hi; a hibale, a pumpi taw hi ngawl ziam, ka son thei bua hi: Pathian in he hi.
3 And I know such a man as this, whether in the body or apart from the body, [I know not], —God, knoweth,
Tabang mihing khat ka he hi, a pumpi taw ziam, a hibale, a pumpi taw hi ngawl ziam, ka son thei bua hi: Pathian in he hi;
4 How that he was caught away into paradise, and heard unspeakable things, which it is not allowable for a man to utter:
Paradise ah la to a, mihing kam pan pusuak in a ki pau thei ngawl kam te za hi.
5 On behalf of such a one as this, will I boast, but, on behalf of myself, will I not boast, save in my weaknesses; —
Tabang mi khat atu in ka ki suangtak tu hi: keima atu ahile ka thaneam na simngawl, ka ki suangtak batu hi.
6 Although in fact, if I should wish to boast, I shall not be foolish, for, the truth, would I speak; but I forbear, lest anyone, unto me, should reckon above what he beholdeth me [to be], or heareth from me, —even by the exceeding greatness of the revelations.
Banghangziam cile ka ki suangtak nuam tazong a mawmaw ka hi batu hi; banghangziam cile thuman ka son tu hi: ahihang tu in mihing khatpo in hong mu na le hong zak na sang in a sang zaw in hong ngaisut tu ka dei ngawl hu in ki suangtak ngawl phot tu khi hi.
7 Wherefore, lest I should be unduly lifted up, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan, that he might buffet me, —lest I should be unduly lifted up.
A dimlet mangmuna tungtawn in keima le keima te na val in ka ki lapsang thei ngawl natu in, ka pumpi sung ah ling khat hong pia hi, tasia sia Satan thupuakpa in hong satna tu a hihi, tabang hibale a te na val in keima le keima ka ki lamsang tha tu hi.
8 In this behalf, thrice, besought I, the Lord, that it might depart from me;
Hisia sia ka tung pan lakeak tu in Topa tung ah thum vei dong ka ngen hi.
9 And at once he said unto me—Sufficient for thee, is my favour, for, my power, in weakness, is made complete. Most gladly, therefore, will I rather boast in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may spread a tent over me.
Taciang Topa in ka tung ah, Ka thuthiamna sia nangma atu in kicing hi: banghangziam cile ka vangletna sia thaneamna mun ah cialcing hi. Tua ahikom vangletna sia ka tung ah hong natu in ka thaneamna ah lungdam tak in ka ki suangtak zaw tu hi.
10 Wherefore, I take pleasure in weaknesses, in insults, in necessities, in persecutions, and straits, in behalf of Christ; for, as soon as I am weak, then, am powerful.
Tua ahikom thaneamna te, zawnsakna te, ki tangsapna te, vawtsiatna te le Christ hang in thinngim nate sung ah ka lungkim hi: banghangziam cile ka tha a neam ciang in ka hat hi.
11 I have become foolish, —ye, compelled me: —I, in fact, ought, by you, to have been commended; for, not a whit, have I come behind the exceeding overmuch apostles, —even if I am nothing:
Note i nong zawthawk uh hu in ka ki suangtak a, a mawmaw ka suak hi: banghangziam cile nong pok tu uh kilawm hi: banghangziam cile bangma ka hi bua ta zong a lianbel sawltak te sang in ka niam zaw tuan bua hi.
12 The signs, indeed, of an apostle, were wrought out among you, in all endurance, —[both] in signs, and wonders, and mighty works:
A tatak in sawltak khat i lim le lam te sia, thuakna theampo sung ah ahizong, lim le lam te sung ah ahizong, taciang na lamdang te ahizong in, a vanglian sepna te ahizong, note sung ah seam hi.
13 For what is there wherein ye were made inferior to the rest of the assemblies, —save that, I myself, would not allow myself to be a burden unto you? Forgive me this wrong!
Banghangziam cile keima vateak note atu vanngit ka hi ngawl natu simngawl, pawlpi dang te sang in na niam zawk na uh bang om ziam? hi a man ngawl ka sep na hong maisak tavun.
14 Lo! this third time, I am holding myself, in readiness, to come unto you, and I will not allow myself to be a burden; for I seek not yours, but you; —for, the children, ought not to lay up, for the parents, but the parents for the children; —
En vun, a thum vei na note kung ah hongpai tu in ka kinging zo hi; taciang keima sia note tung ah vanngit ka hi buatu hi: banghangziam cile note i neisa ka zong bua hi, ahihang note kong zong hi: banghangziam cile tate in nu le pa atu khol tu hi ngawl a, nu le pa te in tate atu khol tu a hihi.
15 And, I, most gladly, will spend, and be fully spent, for your souls: —If I, exceedingly, love you, am I, the less, loved?
Keima in note kong itna dimlet va-ial a, note in nong itna uh sia a tawm va-ial ta zong, note i nuntakna atu in ka neisa theampo le ka nuntakna sia lungdamtak in ka zang tu hi.
16 But let it be!—I, myself, did not burden you, —Notwithstanding, being crafty, with guile, I caught you?
Ahihang note tung ah vanngit ka hi bua hi, ci sia thuman a hihi: ahihang keima sia ka thimthel hu in theamna taw note hong man hileng,
17 Was there, anyone of those whom I have sent unto you, through whom I have overreached you?
Note kung ah kong paisak te sung pan khatpo zang in note tung pan sumlepai taw kisai phattuamna ka vawt uh ziam?
18 I exhorted Titus, and sent with him the brother, —Did, Titus, overreach you? Was it not, in the same spirit, we walked? Was it not, in the same steps?
Titus ka thum a, ama taw suapui pa khat hongpaisak khi hi. Titus in note tung pan in sumlepai taw kisai phattuamna a vawt ziam? thaa khat i sung ah kalsuan khawm hi ngawl hi ziam? kalsuan kibang suan khawm hi ngawl khu ziam?
19 All this time, think ye, that, unto you, we are making a defence? Before God in Christ, we speak; —but all these things, beloved, for your upbuilding.
Note tung ah kote atu in kamzong in hong ngaisun zaw nu ziam? Kote in Christ sung ah Pathian mai ah ka pau uh hi: ahihang ka it te awng, ka sep uh theampo sia note khantosak natu in ka seam uh hi.
20 For I fear—lest, by any means, when I come, not such as I wish, should I find you, and, I, should be found by you, such as ye do not wish; —lest, by any means, [I should find] strife, jealousy, outbursts of wrath, factions, railings, whisperings, puffed up pretensions, confusions; —
Banghangziam cile note kung kong thet ciang in, ka dei bang in note kong mu ngawl tu le, note zong na dei uh bang in nong mu ngawl tu uh ka lau hi: tabang a hibale note sung ah thu kinial nate, ki hazat nate, thin-uk na, ki en nate, kam ki nial nate, ngen siat nate, ki phatsak nate le buai nate a om tu ka lau hi.
21 Lest, when I again come, my God should humble me in regard to you, —and I should grieve over many who had before sinned, and not repented of the impurity, and fornication, and wantonness which they had committed.
Tabang a hibale, mi tampi te i vawt, thiantho ngawl na, paktat mawna le maizum heak ngawl nate sia kong thet dong a ki sikik ngawl uh hu in amate kaa tu ka hile, note sung ah Pathian in hong niamkhiak tu ka lau hi.
