2 Kolinitō 6
1 Ko ia ko kimautolu, ko e kaunga ngāue fakataha, ʻoku mau fakakolekole foki ke ʻoua naʻa mou maʻu tōnoa ʻae ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua.
Adiuvantes autem exhortamur ne in vacuum gratiam Dei recipiatis.
2 (He ʻoku pehē ʻe ia, “Kuo u ongoʻi koe ʻi he kuonga tuʻutuʻumālie, pea ʻi he ʻaho fakamoʻui kuo u tokoniʻi koe:” vakai, ko eni ʻae kuonga tuʻutuʻumālie: vakai, ko eni ʻae ʻaho ʻoe fakamoʻui.)
Ait enim: Tempore accepto exaudivi te, et in die salutis adiuvi te. Ecce nunc tempus acceptabile, ecce nunc dies salutis.
3 Ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha tūkiaʻanga ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa fakaongokovi ʻae ngāue:
nemini dantes ullam offensionem, ut non vituperetur ministerium nostrum:
4 Ka mau fakaongolelei atu ʻakimautolu ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, ʻo taau mo e kau faifekau ʻae ʻOtua, ʻi he faʻa kātaki, ʻi he ngaahi mamahi, ʻi he ngaahi masiva, ʻi he ngaahi fakamamahi lahi,
sed in omnibus exhibeamus nosmetipsos sicut Dei ministros in multa patientia, in tribulationibus, in necessitatibus, in angustiis,
5 ʻI he haha, ʻi he nofo fale fakapōpula, ʻi he maveuveu, ʻi he ngaahi ngāue mamafa, ʻi he faʻa leʻo, ʻi he faʻa ʻaukai;
in plagis, in carceribus, in seditionibus, in laboribus, in vigiliis, in ieiuniis,
6 ʻI he māʻoniʻoni, ʻi he ʻilo, ʻi he kātaki fuoloa, ʻi he angaʻofa, ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, ʻi he ʻofa taʻeloi,
in castitate, in scientia, in longanimitate, in suavitate, in Spiritu sancto, in charitate non ficta,
7 ʻI he lea ʻoe moʻoni, ʻi he mālohi ʻae ʻOtua, ʻi he mahafutau ʻoe māʻoniʻoni ʻi he nima toʻomataʻu pea ʻi he toʻohema,
in verbo veritatis, in virtute Dei, per arma iustitiae a dextris, et a sinistris,
8 ʻI he fakaʻapaʻapa mo e taʻefakaʻapaʻapa, ʻi he ongokovi mo e ongolelei: ʻo hangē ko e kau kākā, ka ʻoku moʻoni;
per gloriam, et ignobilitatem, per infamiam, et bonam famam: ut seductores, et veraces, sicut qui ignoti, et cogniti:
9 Hangē ko e taʻeʻilo, ka ʻoku ʻilo lahi; hangē ko e mate, pea ʻiloange, ʻoku tau moʻui; hangē ko e tautea, ka ʻoku ʻikai tāmateʻi;
quasi morientes, et ecce vivimus: ut castigati, et non mortificati:
10 Hangē ko e loto mamahi, kamau fiefia maʻuaipē; hangē ko e masiva, ka ʻoku mau fakakoloaʻia ʻae tokolahi; hangē ko e taʻemaʻu-ha-meʻa, ka ʻoku maʻu ʻae meʻa kotoa pē.
quasi tristes, semper autem gaudentes: sicut egentes, multos autem locupletantes: tamquam nihil habentes, et omnia possidentes.
11 ʻAe kakai Kolinitō, ʻoku matoʻo homau ngutu kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku tupu ʻo lahi homau loto.
Os nostrum patet ad vos, o Corinthii, cor nostrum dilatatum est.
12 ʻOku ʻikai te mou ʻefihia ʻiate kimautolu, ka ʻoku mou ʻefihia ʻi he ʻofa ʻamoutolu pe.
Non angustiamini in nobis: angustiamini autem in visceribus vestris:
13 Pea ko eni, ko hono totongi ʻi he meʻa ni, (ʻoku ou lea ʻo hangē ki heʻeku fānau) ke fakaʻataʻatā ʻakimoutolu foki.
eandem autem habentes remunerationem, tamquam filiis dico: dilatamini et vos.
14 ʻOua naʻa mou kau fakataha mo e kakai taʻetui: he ʻoku feohi fēfē ʻae māʻoniʻoni mo e taʻemāʻoniʻoni? Pea ʻoku feohi fēfē ʻae maama mo e poʻuli?
Nolite iugum ducere cum infidelibus. Quae enim participatio iustitiae cum iniquitate? Aut quae societas luci ad tenebras?
15 Pea ʻoku kau taha fēfē ʻa Kalaisi mo Pileali? Pea ʻoku ʻinasi taha ʻi he hā ʻaia ʻoku tui mo e taʻetui?
Quae autem conventio Christi ad Belial? Aut quae pars fideli cum infideli?
16 Pea ʻoku fai tatau ʻi he hā ʻae fale tapu ʻoe ʻOtua mo e ngaahi tamapua? He ko e fale tapu ʻakimoutolu ʻoe ʻOtua moʻui; ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻae ʻOtua, “Te u nofoʻia ʻakinautolu, ʻo ʻeveʻeva ʻiate kinautolu; pea ko honau ʻOtua au, pea ko hoku kakai ʻakinautolu.”
Quis autem consensus templo Dei cum idolis? Vos enim estis templum Dei vivi, sicut dicit Deus: Quoniam inhabitabo in illis, et inambulabo inter eos, et ero illorum Deus, et ipsi erunt mihi populus.
17 ʻOku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, “Ko ia mou haʻu meiate kinautolu, pea ke ʻataʻatā ʻakimoutolu, pea ʻoua naʻa ala ki he taʻemaʻa; pea te u maʻu ʻakimoutolu:”
Propter quod exite de medio eorum, et separamini, dicit Dominus, et immundum ne tetigeritis:
18 ʻOku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki Māfimafi, “Te u ʻiate kimoutolu ko e Tamai, pea ko hoku ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine ʻakimoutolu.”
et ego recipiam vos: et ero vobis in patrem, et vos eritis mihi in filios, et filias, dicit Dominus omnipotens.
