Luo Corinth 7
1 Mwet kawuk soak luk, wulela inge nukewa ma nu sesr. Ke ma inge, lela kut in sifacna aknasnasye kut liki ma nukewa su ac akfohkfokye manosr ku ngunasr, ac lela kut in arulana mutal ke kut moul in akfulatye God.
Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every filthiness of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in fear of God.
2 Lela kowos in inse pwaye nu sesr. Wangin mwet kut orekma sufal nu se; wangin mwet kut akkolukyela, wangin mwet kut kiapwela.
Make room for us. We wronged no man, we corrupted no man, we exploited no man.
3 Nga tia fahk ma inge in aktoasrye kowos; tuh oana ke nga fahk tari, kowos arulana saok sesr, ouinge insese lasr uh ac oanna, kut finne moul ku misa.
I speak not for condemnation, for I have said before that ye are in our hearts to die together and to live together.
4 Nga arulana lulalfongi kowos; nga arulana yukin kowos! In mwe ongoiya nu sesr nukewa nga srakna sessesla ke pulaik; nga tingtingi ke engan.
Great is my boldness toward you, great is my pride for you. I have been filled with encouragement. I over-abound with joy in all our affliction.
5 Finne tukun kut sun tari acn Macedonia, wangin pacl in mongla lasr. Oasr lokoalok yen nukewa — oasr amei sin mwet saya nu sesr, ac oasr sangeng insiasr.
For even when we came into Macedonia our flesh had not one relief, but being oppressed in everything: battles outside, fears within.
6 Tusruktu God, su akkeye mwet su sun ongoiya, El akkeye kut ke tuku lal Titus.
Nevertheless God, who encourages the lowly, encouraged us by the arrival of Titus.
7 Tia tuku lal mukena pa akpwaryekutyak, a el srumun luman akku lowos nu sel. El fahkak nu sesr lupan kena lowos in liyeyu, lupan pakomuta lowos, lupan akola lowos in kasreyu; na ke sripa inge engan luk uh arulana yokelik.
And not only by his presence, but also by the encouragement with which he was encouraged by you, reporting to us your earnest desire, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced the more.
8 Tuh leta luk ah finne aktoasrye kowos, nga tia auli lah nga simusla. Nga lukun pakomuta ke nga liye lah leta sac oru kowos oela ke kitin pacl.
Because even though I grieved you in the letter, I am not remorseful (even though I was remorseful), for I perceive that that letter grieved you, even though for an hour.
9 Tusruktu inge nga engan — tia mweyen nga oru kowos asor, a mweyen asor lowos tuh oru kowos auliyak. Asor sac orekmakinyuk sin God ke sripa wo nu suwos, ac kut tia akkolukye kowos kac.
Now I rejoice, not that ye were grieved, but that ye were grieved for repentance. For ye were grieved toward God, so that ye might suffer loss from us in nothing.
10 Tuh asor su God El orekmakin uh pa oru ekla lun nunak, su ac kolla mwet nu ke molela — ac wangin auli ke ma inge! A asor lun faclu ac kolla mwet nu ke misa.
For sorrow toward God works repentance for salvation without regret, but the sorrow of the world works death.
11 Liye ma God El oru ke asor se lowos inge: pa oru kowos arulana moniyukla, ac oru kowos kena akpwayei lah wangin mwatuwos! Inge kowos koase ma koluk, yohk lohang lowos, ac kena lowos, ac insianaung, ac kowos akola na in kai ma koluk! In ma inge nukewa kowos akkalemye lah wangin ma sufal lowos.
For behold this same thing-your grieving toward God. How much eagerness it worked in you, even a defense, even indignation, even fear, even longing, even zeal, even vengeance! In everything ye demonstrated yourselves to be pure in the matter.
12 Ke ma inge, nga ne simusla leta sac, tia ma ke sripen mwet se ma orala ma koluk, ku mwet se ma akkolukyeyuk. A nga tuh simusla in oru in kalem suwos, ye mutun God, lupan nunak pwaye lowos nu sesr.
And so then, although I wrote to you, it was not because of the man who did wrong, nor because of the man who was wronged, but in order to reveal to you your eagerness for us in the sight of God.
13 Sripa inge nukewa oru kut arulana kui. Tia akkeyeyuk kut mukena, a Titus el akpwarye kut ke engan lal ke sripen kasru su kowos nukewa tuh oru ac akpwaryal kac!
Because of this we have been encouraged. And from your encouragement, we rejoiced to a greater degree more at the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by you all.
14 Nga tuh yukin kowos nu sel, ac kowos akpwayela konkin luk keiwos. Kas lasr pwaye nu suwos pacl nukewa, ac in lumah sacna, konkin lasr keiwos nu sel Titus ah akpwayeiyukla.
Because, if I have boasted anything to him about you, I am not ashamed, but as we spoke all things in truth to you, so also our boast to Titus became truth.
15 Ke ma inge, lungse lal nu suwos uh yokyokelik ke el esam luman akola lowos nukewa in akos mwe luti lal, ac ke kowos eisal nu yuruwos ke akfulat na yohk.
And his bowels are more abundant toward you, remembering the obedience of you all, how ye received him with fear and trembling.
16 Yohk engan luk lah nga ku in arulana lulalfongi kowos!
I rejoice that I have confidence in you in everything.
