< 2 Corinthians 7 >

1 Having therefore these promises, beloved, let’s cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
Ka pyikhqi, vawhkaw awikamnaak ve a awm hawh adawngawh, pum ingkaw Myihla amak ciimcaih sak khqi boeih ce ciimcaih sak u sih. Khawsa kqihchahnaak ing ciimcaihnaak soep ing awm u sih.
2 Open your hearts to us. We wronged no one. We corrupted no one. We took advantage of no one.
Namik kawlung khuiawh kaimih aham hun ta law uh. U ak khanawh awm ak che am sai unyng, u awm am seet sak unyng, u awm amak tyng na am haw na unyng.
3 I say this not to condemn you, for I have said before that you are in our hearts to die together and live together.
Nangmih bo sak aham ve am haw na unyng. Nangmih bo sak aham ve ak awi ap kqawn unyng; nangmih mi hqing haih thih haih aham kaimih ak kawlung khuiawh hun ta uhyk ti tice nik kqawn law pek khqi hawh nyng.
4 Great is my boldness of speech toward you. Great is my boasting on your behalf. I am filled with comfort. I overflow with joy in all our affliction.
Nangmih ve ni ypnak khqi nyng; cedawngawh nangmih awh ce oekqu nyng. A kak tha awm hy; kyinaak soep ka huhnaak awh ka zeelnaak ing be nyng.
5 For even when we had come into Macedonia, our flesh had no relief, but we were afflicted on every side. Fightings were outside. Fear was inside.
Makedonia qamna kami law awh, vawhkaw kami pum ing ngaiqepnaak qoe am ta nawh kyinaak ing awm poepa unyng. Voei avang qaaltuknaak awm nawh ak khui benawh kqihnaak ing awm unyng.
6 Nevertheless, he who comforts the lowly, God, comforted us by the coming of Titus,
Cehlai ak kaikhyt na ak awmkhqi ngaih ak ding sakkung Khawsa ing Tita a tyih lawnaak ak caming ngaihdingnaak ce ni pek khqi hy,
7 and not by his coming only, but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you while he told us of your longing, your mourning, and your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more.
Anih a lawnaak ak cam doeng am nawh, nami awmdamnaak khqi, naming kqaangnaak khqi, kak khanawh nami leeknaak anim thennaak khqi ingkaw nangmih awhkaw ngaihqepnaak ing awm ka ngai ni qep sak hy.
8 For though I grieved you with my letter, I do not regret it, though I did regret it. For I see that my letter made you grieve, though just for a while.
Ca ka ni pat law khqi awh nangmih kaw ni seet sak khqi mai nyng seiawm am zut nyng. Am zut thai nyng – kak ca ing namik kaw ni seet sak khqi hy tice sim nyng, cehlai kawlhkalh mai awh ni.
9 I now rejoice, not that you were grieved, but that you were grieved to repentance. For you were grieved in a godly way, that you might suffer loss by us in nothing.
Cehlai tuh zeel nyng, namik kaw ka ni seet sak khqi awh am nawh, namik kawseetnaak ing a ning zut sak khqi awh ni. Khawsa ang cainaak amyihna namik kaw se hy, kaimih ing nami tlawhnaak aham ikaw awm am sai unyng.
10 For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, which brings no regret. But the sorrow of the world produces death.
Khawsa kawngaihna kawseetnaak ing hulnaak a hamna zytnaak pha sak nawh, cece nik kawseet hly kawi am ni. Khawmdek kawseetnaak ingtaw thihnaak pha sak hy.
11 For behold, this same thing, that you were grieved in a godly way, what earnest care it worked in you. Yes, what defense, indignation, fear, longing, zeal, and vindication! In everything you demonstrated yourselves to be pure in the matter.
Khawsa ak kawngaihna kawseetnaak ing nangmih ikawmyihna a ni awm sak khqi tice toek lah uh: them am quuknaak, seet am sainaak, thawlh sai sawhnaak ingkaw thawlh kqihnaak, thahlynaak, ak thawlh toel thainaak khqi ce ni taak sak khqi hy.
12 So although I wrote to you, I wrote not for his cause that did the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered the wrong, but that your earnest care for us might be revealed in you in the sight of God.
Cedawngawh nangmih a venawh ca qee law hlai nyng, thlang pynoet a thawlhnaak, am awhtaw, thawlhnaak ak saikhqi awh am nawh, Khawsa haiawh nangmih ing kaimih ak awi ngai uhyk ti tice nami huh thainaak ahamni.
13 Therefore we have been comforted. In our comfort we rejoiced the more exceedingly for the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by you all.
Vemyihkhqi boeih awh ve kamik tha na awm hy. Kaimih ak thaawmnaak coengawh, Tita a zeelnaak ce awm kami huh awh kamik kaw zeel khqoet bai hy, kawtih nangmih boeih ing anih ce ak kawlung caih sak pang uhyk ti.
14 For if in anything I have boasted to him on your behalf, I was not disappointed. But as we spoke all things to you in truth, so our glorying also which I made before Titus was found to be truth.
Anih a venawh nangmih ce ni zoeksang khqi hawh nyng, nangmih ing kak kaw zeel law sak uhyk ti. Nangmih a venawh kak kqawn law hawh amyihna ik-oeih boeih ce thym hy, cedawngawh Tita a venawh nangmih ka ni zoeksangnaak khqi awm thym hy.
15 His affection is more abundantly toward you, while he remembers all of your obedience, how with fear and trembling you received him.
Nangmih ing awi ngai uhyk ti tice a huh awh nangmih ing anih ce kqih ingkaw thyn doena nami do dawngawh nangmih a ni lungnaak khqi ce sang khqoet bai hy.
16 I rejoice that in everything I am confident concerning you.
Tuh taw nangmih ce ka ni ypnaak khqi hawh dawngawh ka zeelnaak soep hawh hy.
