2 Corinthians 5
1 We know that [these bodies] we live in [here in this world are like] [MET] tents. [They are like temporary living/dwelling places]. [So we should not be concerned about what happens to our bodies]. We know that if we are killed {if [someone] kills us}, God will give us [permanent living places. Those permanent living places] [MET] will not be houses that people have made. They [will be new bodies in which we will live forever] in heaven. (aiōnios g166)

2 [While we are here on earth, we suffer]. We often groan because we desire [to go] to heaven [where God] will give us our new [bodies] [MET].
ཡཏོ ཧེཏོརེཏསྨིན྄ ཝེཤྨནི ཏིཥྛནྟོ ཝཡཾ ཏཾ སྭརྒཱིཡཾ ཝཱསཾ པརིདྷཱཏུམ྄ ཨཱཀཱངྐྵྱམཱཎཱ ནིཿཤྭསཱམཿ།
3 When [God gives us(inc) our new bodies] [MET], our [spirits will have] [LIT, MET] bodies to live in [that will last forever].
ཏཐཱཔཱིདཱནཱིམཔི ཝཡཾ ཏེན ན ནགྣཱཿ ཀིནྟུ པརིཧིཏཝསནཱ མནྱཱམཧེ།
4 [It is true that] while we are still living in these bodies [MET] [that do not last forever], we often groan [DOU] [because we desire to be free from them]. We are not longing to be without a body. Instead, [we groan because] we desire to receive our new bodies [MET] in heaven. We long for this to happen so that these bodies that are going to die some day will suddenly be changed [into bodies] that will live [forever].
ཨེཏསྨིན྄ དཱུཥྱེ ཏིཥྛནཏོ ཝཡཾ ཀླིཤྱམཱནཱ ནིཿཤྭསཱམཿ, ཡཏོ ཝཡཾ ཝཱསཾ ཏྱཀྟུམ྄ ཨིཙྪཱམསྟནྣཧི ཀིནྟུ ཏཾ དྭིཏཱིཡཾ ཝཱསཾ པརིདྷཱཏུམ྄ ཨིཙྪཱམཿ, ཡཏསྟཐཱ ཀྲྀཏེ ཛཱིཝནེན མརྟྱཾ གྲསིཥྱཏེ།
5 It is God himself who has prepared us to [receive] these [new bodies]. He is also the one who has guaranteed/assured us [(inc)] that this will happen. He has guaranteed it by sending his Spirit [to live inside us now].
ཨེཏདརྠཾ ཝཡཾ ཡེན སྲྀཥྚཱཿ ས ཨཱིཤྭར ཨེཝ ས ཙཱསྨབྷྱཾ སཏྱངྐཱརསྱ པཎསྭརཱུཔམ྄ ཨཱཏྨཱནཾ དཏྟཝཱན྄།
6 So, [because God’s Spirit lives in us], we are always confident [that God will give us new bodies]. We know that as long as we have bodies here on [earth], we are not yet [living together] with the Lord [Jesus in heaven].
ཨཏཨེཝ ཝཡཾ སཪྻྭདོཏྶུཀཱ བྷཝཱམཿ ཀིཉྩ ཤརཱིརེ ཡཱཝད྄ ཨསྨཱབྷི རྣྱུཥྱཏེ ཏཱཝཏ྄ པྲབྷུཏོ དཱུརེ པྲོཥྱཏ ཨིཏི ཛཱནཱིམཿ,
7 While we [(exc)] live [here, we] do not have our [new bodies, but we are] trusting [that God will give them to us].
ཡཏོ ཝཡཾ དྲྀཥྚིམཱརྒེ ན ཙརཱམཿ ཀིནྟུ ཝིཤྭཱསམཱརྒེ།
8 [As I said], we [(exc)] are confident [that he will give us new bodies]. We [(exc)] would much prefer to leave these bodies [which we have now], and be with the Lord [Jesus in our] home in [heaven].
ཨཔརཉྩ ཤརཱིརཱད྄ དཱུརེ པྲཝསྟུཾ པྲབྷོཿ སནྣིདྷཽ ནིཝསྟུཉྩཱཀཱངྐྵྱམཱཎཱ ཨུཏྶུཀཱ བྷཝཱམཿ།
9 Because of all that, we always want to please [Jesus in everything that we do]. Whether we [(exc)] are [still living] here [in these] bodies or whether we have [left] them and are living in our home [in heaven], we want to please him.
ཏསྨཱདེཝ ཀཱརཎཱད྄ ཝཡཾ ཏསྱ སནྣིདྷཽ ནིཝསནྟསྟསྨཱད྄ དཱུརེ པྲཝསནྟོ ཝཱ ཏསྨཻ རོཙིཏུཾ ཡཏཱམཧེ།
10 [And we need to try hard to do that] because each one of us [believers] must stand before Christ [to be] judged [by him] {[when he will] judge [his people]}. [At that time] he will [reward each one of] us according to what we have done [while we lived in this world] in these bodies. [He will reward us according to] whether we have done good things or whether we have done evil things.
ཡསྨཱཏ྄ ཤརཱིརཱཝསྠཱཡཱམ྄ ཨེཀཻཀེན ཀྲྀཏཱནཱཾ ཀརྨྨཎཱཾ ཤུབྷཱཤུབྷཕལཔྲཱཔྟཡེ སཪྻྭཻསྨཱབྷིཿ ཁྲཱིཥྚསྱ ཝིཙཱརཱསནསམྨུཁ ཨུཔསྠཱཏཝྱཾ།
11 It makes me fearful [to think that some day I will stand before the Lord for him to judge me]. So I [do everything that I can to] convince people [that they should believe] (OR, [that I teach] sincerely) [God’s message]. God knows very well [how I conduct my life and what I teach], and I really believe that you know it, too.

12 Once again [I say, as I write this], I am not just [trying to] make you think well/highly of me, [as some people will probably say that I am]. Instead, I am [telling you in this letter why you have] good reason [to tell those who criticize me] that you think highly of me. [I am telling you this] so that you will know what to say to those [teachers of false doctrine among you]. They are proud [of what they have done], instead of [making sure that] they [are right with God and being pleased with that].

13 [Some of them say that after God has enabled me to see visions], I [talk like] a crazy person. If [that is so, I want you to realize that I talk that way in order to please] God. On the other hand, if [you think that] I [speak and act] wisely, [that is good. I want you to know that I do] speak and act wisely in order to [help] you.

14 [I speak and act the way I do] because the love that Christ [has for people] influences me [in everything that I say and do]. When Christ died, [he suffered the punishment] for [the sins of] all people. So, we should all [think of ourselves as having] died with him, [being as unresponsive to sinful desires as] [MET] a corpse is.
ཝཡཾ ཁྲཱིཥྚསྱ པྲེམྣཱ སམཱཀྲྀཥྱཱམཧེ ཡཏཿ སཪྻྭེཥཱཾ ཝིནིམཡེན ཡདྱེཀོ ཛནོ྅མྲིཡཏ ཏརྷི ཏེ སཪྻྭེ མྲྀཏཱ ཨིཏྱཱསྨཱབྷི རྦུདྷྱཏེ།
15 When [Christ] died for the everyone, he died in order that [we believers who are alive now] should not conduct our lives in a way that will just [please ourselves]. Instead, [we should conduct our lives in a way that will please] Christ, [because] he is the one who died for us and was brought back to life {whom [God] raised} again.
ཨཔརཉྩ ཡེ ཛཱིཝནྟི ཏེ ཡཏ྄ སྭཱརྠཾ ན ཛཱིཝནྟི ཀིནྟུ ཏེཥཱཾ ཀྲྀཏེ ཡོ ཛནོ མྲྀཏཿ པུནརུཏྠཱཔིཏཤྩ ཏམུདྡིཤྱ ཡཏ྄ ཛཱིཝནྟི ཏདརྠམེཝ ས སཪྻྭེཥཱཾ ཀྲྀཏེ མྲྀཏཝཱན྄།
16 So, [because I realize how much Christ loves everyone], I no longer think about people in the way that those who do not believe [in Christ] think about [them]. Before I [was a believer], I thought about Christ in the way that other non-believers did. But I do not think of him that way any more.
ཨཏོ ཧེཏོརིཏཿ པརཾ ཀོ྅པྱསྨཱབྷི རྫཱཏིཏོ ན པྲཏིཛྙཱཏཝྱཿ། ཡདྱཔི པཱུཪྻྭཾ ཁྲཱིཥྚོ ཛཱཏིཏོ྅སྨཱབྷིཿ པྲཏིཛྙཱཏསྟཐཱཔཱིདཱནཱིཾ ཛཱཏིཏཿ པུན རྣ པྲཏིཛྙཱཡཏེ།
17 The fact is that God makes every one [of us] who [trusts] in Christ to be completely different [than we were before]. Our old [way of conducting our lives] is gone. We now have a [completely] new way of [conducting our lives].
ཀེནཙིཏ྄ ཁྲཱིཥྚ ཨཱཤྲིཏེ ནཱུཏནཱ སྲྀཥྚི རྦྷཝཏི པུརཱཏནཱནི ལུཔྱནྟེ པཤྱ ནིཁིལཱནི ནཝཱིནཱནི བྷཝནྟི།
18 This [complete change in our lives] is all something that God [does]. It is God who made it possible for us to have a peaceful relationship with him. [He was able to do that] because of what Christ [did for us]. Now God [has sent] me, and those [who work] with me, to tell [people that they] can have a peaceful relationship with him.
སཪྻྭཉྩཻཏད྄ ཨཱིཤྭརསྱ ཀརྨྨ ཡཏོ ཡཱིཤུཁྲཱིཥྚེན ས ཨེཝཱསྨཱན྄ སྭེན སཱརྡྡྷཾ སཾཧིཏཝཱན྄ སནྡྷཱནསམྦནྡྷཱིཡཱཾ པརིཙཪྻྱཱམ྄ ཨསྨཱསུ སམརྤིཏཝཱཾཤྩ།
19 That is, [he sent us(exc) to tell them that] when Christ [died], God was [making it possible for everyone] [MTY] in the world to have a peaceful relationship with him. He no longer keeps a record of the sinful things that [we believers] have done. The message that [God] has given to us [to tell people is how we can have a] peaceful relationship with him.
ཡཏཿ ཨཱིཤྭརཿ ཁྲཱིཥྚམ྄ ཨདྷིཥྛཱཡ ཛགཏོ ཛནཱནཱམ྄ ཨཱགཱཾསི ཏེཥཱམ྄ ཨྲྀཎམིཝ ན གཎཡན྄ སྭེན སཱརྡྡྷཾ ཏཱན྄ སཾཧིཏཝཱན྄ སནྡྷིཝཱརྟྟཱམ྄ ཨསྨཱསུ སམརྤིཏཝཱཾཤྩ།
20 So, it is I and my companions who are Christ’s representatives [in this world. When we tell people the message about Christ], it is God himself who is pleading with them by means of what we [say]. So, as true representatives of Christ, we plead with you: [Believe God’s true message about Christ in order that you may] be reconciled to {have a peaceful relationship with} him.
ཨཏོ ཝཡཾ ཁྲཱིཥྚསྱ ཝིནིམཡེན དཽཏྱཾ ཀརྨྨ སམྤཱདཡཱམཧེ, ཨཱིཤྭརཤྩཱསྨཱབྷི ཪྻུཥྨཱན྄ ཡཱཡཱཙྱཏེ ཏཏཿ ཁྲཱིཥྚསྱ ཝིནིམཡེན ཝཡཾ ཡུཥྨཱན྄ པྲཱརྠཡཱམཧེ ཡཱུཡམཱིཤྭརེཎ སནྡྷཏྟ།
21 [You must believe that even though] Jesus never sinned, God [punished him for all the] sinful things [that people do, just] as [if Jesus had done those sinful things himself]. And because of our close relationship with Christ, God has erased the record of our sins/declared us no longer guilty for our sins.
