Luo Corinth 10

1 Nga Paul, kwafe nu suwos ke nunak luk sifacna — nga, su kutu mwet uh fahk mu nga filpap ac tupwek ke pacl nga wi kowos, a nga kaskas upa ke nga muta loes liki kowos. Ke pusisel ac kulang lun Christ nga kwafe suwos

And I, Paul, myself, do call upon you — through the meekness and gentleness of the Christ — who in presence, indeed [am] humble among you, and being absent, have courage toward you,

2 in tia oru tuh nga in kaskas upa ke pacl nga ac tuku; tuh nga etu na pwaye lah nga ku in kaskas upa nu selos su fahk mu kut orekma ke ouiya lun faclu.

and I beseech [you], that, being present, I may not have courage, with the confidence with which I reckon to be bold against certain reckoning us as walking according to the flesh;

3 Pwaye lah kut moul fin faclu, tusruktu kut tia mweun ke lumah lun faclu.

for walking in the flesh, not according to the flesh do we war,

4 Kufwen mweun ma kut orekmakin in mweun lasr tia kufwen mweun lun faclu, a kufwen mwe mweun kulana lun God, ma kut orekmakin in kunausla pot ku lun mwet mweun. Kut kunausla kas in akukuin kikiap;

for the weapons of our warfare [are] not fleshly, but powerful to God for bringing down of strongholds,

5 kut kunausla nunak fulat nukewa su kosrala mwet in etu ke God. Kut kutongya nunak nukewa lun mwet uh, ac oru elos in akos Christ.

reasonings bringing down, and every high thing lifted up against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of the Christ,

6 Ac tukun kowos akpwayeye inse pwaye lowos, kut ac fah akola in kai kutena mwet su seakos.

and being in readiness to avenge every disobedience, whenever your obedience may be fulfilled.

7 Kowos liye na likin ma uh. Ya oasr sie mwet inmasrlowos su nunku mu el ma lun Christ? Lela elan sifacna tonel, mweyen kut ma lun Christ oapana el.

The things in presence do ye see? if any one hath trusted in himself to be Christ's, this let him reckon again from himself, that according as he is Christ's, so also we [are] Christ's;

8 Tuh nga tia mwekin, nga finne konkin yokla ke ku se ma Leum El ase nu sesr — ku se inge ma in musaikowosyak, ac tia in kunauskowosla.

for even if also anything more abundantly I shall boast concerning our authority, that the Lord gave us for building up, and not for casting you down, I shall not be ashamed;

9 Nga tia lungse kowos in nunku mu nga srike in aksangengye kowos ke leta luk uh.

that I may not seem as if I would terrify you through the letters,

10 Oasr mwet ac fahk, “Leta lal Paul uh upa ac ku, tusruktu pacl el muta yorosr, el munas ac kas lal uh wangin sripa!”

'because the letters indeed — saith one — [are] weighty and strong, and the bodily presence weak, and the speech despicable.'

11 Kain mwet se ingan enenu in kalem kac lah wangin ekla inmasrlon ma kut simus ke leta lasr ke pacl kut muta loesla, ac ma kut ac oru ke pacl kut oasr yuruwos.

This one — let him reckon thus: that such as we are in word, through letters, being absent, such also, being present, [we are] in deed.

12 Kut ac fah tiana lumwekut sifacna oana elos su oakalos mu elos mwet fulat. Elos arulana lalfon! Elos sifacna orala mwe srikasrak lalos ac sifacna srikalos nu kac, na elos nununkalos sifacna fal nu ke oakwuk lalos inge!

For we do not make bold to rank or to compare ourselves with certain of those commending themselves, but they, among themselves measuring themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are not wise,

13 A funu kut, konkin lasr fah tia alukela lupa fal; a ac fah fal na nu ke orekma se su God El oakiya nu sesr, su kowos oasr pac kac.

and we in regard to the unmeasured things will not boast ourselves, but after the measure of the line that the God of measure did appoint to us — to reach even unto you;

14 Ac ke sripen kowos oasr ke orekma kunasr inge, kut tiana alukela ma fal ke kut tuh tuku nu yuruwos ac us Pweng Wo ke Christ.

for not as not reaching to you do we stretch ourselves overmuch, for even unto you did we come in the good news of the Christ,

15 Ke ma inge kut tia konkin ke orekma ma mwet saya orala, su alukela ma God El oaki nu sesr. A kut finsrak mu lulalfongi lowos fah kapak, ac orekma lasr yuruwos fah ku in yokelik, ac pacl nukewa in fal nu ke srikasrak ma God El oakiya.

not boasting of the things not measured, in other men's labours, and having hope — your faith increasing — in you to be enlarged, according to our line — into abundance,

16 Na kut fah ku in fahkak Pweng Wo in kutu pac acn loesla liki kowos, ac tia enenu in konkin ke ma orekla tari sin kutu pac mwet in acn se ma God El sang elos in orekma we.

in the [places] beyond you to proclaim good news, not in another's line in regard to the things made ready, to boast;

17 A oana ke Ma Simusla uh fahk, “Kutena mwet su lungse konkin, lela elan konkin ke ma Leum El orala.”

and he who is boasting — in the Lord let him boast;

18 Tuh mwet se ma Leum El insewowo kac pa ac akfulatyeyuk, ac tia mwet se ma sifacna kaksakunul.

for not he who is commending himself is approved, but he whom the Lord doth commend.
