Luo Corinth 2

1 Ouinge nga tuh sifacna sulela sik in tia sifilpa fahsrot nu yuruwos, tuh nga in tia akasorye kowos.

And I decided this to myself, not again to come in sorrow unto you,

2 Mweyen nga fin oru kowos in asor, na su ac ku in akpwaryeyu? Elos na su nga tuh akasorye.

for if I make you sorry, then who is he who is making me glad, except he who is made sorry by me?

3 Pa inge sripen nga tuh sim nu suwos meet ah — nga tia lungse fahsrot nu yuruwos ac aksupwaryeyuk sin mwet na ma fal in akenganyeyu. Tuh nga pula tari lah nga fin engan, na kowos nukewa wi pac engan.

and I wrote to you this same thing, that having come, I may not have sorrow from them of whom it behoved me to have joy, having confidence in you all, that my joy is of you all,

4 Ke nga tuh sim nu suwos, nga tuh inse asor ac supwarlana ac nga tung pac; tia tuh nga in akasorye kowos, a tuh kowos in ku in akilen lupan lungse luk nu suwos nukewa.

for out of much tribulation and pressure of heart I wrote to you through many tears, not that ye might be made sorry, but that ye might know the love that I have more abundantly toward you.

5 Inge, fin oasr sie inmasrlowos su akasorye siena mwet, el tia oru nu sik, a nu suwos nukewa — ku sahp kutu na suwos. (Nga fahk ouinge mweyen nga tia lungse in upala nu sel.)

And if any one hath caused sorrow, he hath not caused sorrow to me, but in part, that I may not burden you all;

6 Fal tari kaiyuk ma inkaiyowos tuh sang nu sin mwet se ingan.

sufficient to such a one is this punishment, that [is] by the more part,

7 Na inge, kowos enenu in nunak munas nu sel ac akkeyal, tuh asor lal in tia yokelik, pwanang el fuhleak lulalfongi lal.

so that, on the contrary, [it is] rather for you to forgive and to comfort, lest by over abundant sorrow such a one may be swallowed up;

8 Ouinge nga kwafe suwos in akkalemye nu sel lah pwaye kowos lungse el.

wherefore, I call upon you to confirm love to him,

9 Nga tuh sim nu suwos mweyen nga ke srike kowos, ac liye lah kowos akola pacl nukewa in akos kas in luti luk.

for, for this also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether in regard to all things ye are obedient.

10 Ke kowos nunak munas nu sin sie mwet, nga wi pac nunak munas nu sel. Tuh pacl nga nunak munas — fin oasr ma fal nga in nunak munas kac — nga oru ma inge ye mutun Christ, ke sripowos,

And to whom ye forgive anything — I also; for I also, if I have forgiven anything, to whom I have forgiven [it], because of you — in the person of Christ — [I forgive it, ]

11 in kutongilya Satan elan tia kutangkutla, mweyen kut etu ouiya kutasrik lal.

that we may not be over-reached by the Adversary, for of his devices we are not ignorant.

12 Ke nga sun acn Troas in fahkak Pweng Wo ke Christ we, nga konauk lah Leum el ikasla tari inkanek nu ke orekma uh.

And having come to Troas for the good news of the Christ, and a door to me having been opened in the Lord,

13 Tusruktu nga tuh arulana fosrnga, mweyen nga tia ku in konalak Titus, mwet wiasr in orekma uh. Ke ma inge nga wilkas nu sin mwet we, ac som nu Macedonia.

I have not had rest to my spirit, on my not finding Titus my brother, but having taken leave of them, I went forth to Macedonia;

14 A kut in sang kulo nu sin God! Tuh ke kut ma sefanna yurin Christ, God El kol kut in kutangla pacl nukewa. Ac El orekmakin kut in oru tuh etauk ke Christ in fahsrelik nu yen nukewa oana sie foul na keng.

and to God [are] thanks, who at all times is leading us in triumph in the Christ, and the fragrance of His knowledge He is manifesting through us in every place,

15 Tuh kut oana sie mwe kisa keng fohlo, ma Christ el kisakin nu sin God, ac fohlo se inge fahsrelik nu inmasrlolos su fahsr ke inkanek in moul, oayapa nu inmasrlolos su fahsr ke inkanek in tuhlac.

because of Christ a sweet fragrance we are to God, in those being saved, and in those being lost;

16 Tuh nu selos su ac tuhlac, ma inge oana foulin ma misa su mwe uniya; a nu selos su ac moulla, ma inge sie foul keng ma ase moul. Na su ac fal in oru orekma ouinge uh?

to the one, indeed, a fragrance of death to death, and to the other, a fragrance of life to life; and for these things who is sufficient?

17 Kut tia oana mwet puspis saya, su orekma ke kas lun God oana ma lusronten ma elos kukakin; a ke sripen God El supwekut, kut fahk ma na pwaye ye mutal, oana mwet kulansap lun Christ.

for we are not as the many, adulterating the word of God, but as of sincerity — but as of God; in the presence of God, in Christ we do speak.
