2 Kolinitō 7

1 Ko ia, ʻe kāinga ʻofeina, ʻi heʻetau maʻu ʻae ngaahi talaʻofa ni, ke tau fakamaʻa ʻakitautolu mei he ʻuli kotoa pē ʻoe kakano mo e laumālie, ʻo fakahaohaoa ʻae māʻoniʻoni ʻi he manavahē ki he ʻOtua.

Seing then we haue these promises, dearely beloued, let vs clense our selues from all filthinesse of the flesh and spirit, and finish our sanctification in the feare of God.

2 Mou maʻu ʻakimautolu; naʻe ʻikai te mau fai taʻetotonu ki ha tokotaha, naʻe ʻikai te mau fakaangahalaʻi ha tokotaha, naʻe ʻikai te mau kākaaʻi ha tokotaha.

Receiue vs: we haue done wrong to no man: we haue corrupted no man: we haue defrauded no man.

3 ‌ʻOku ʻikai te u lea ko ha tautea: he kuo ʻosi ʻeku tala atu, ʻoku mou ʻi homau loto ke mau mate mo moʻui mo kimoutolu.

I speake it not to your condemnation: for I haue said before, that ye are in our hearts, to die and liue together.

4 ‌ʻOku lahi ʻeku faʻa lea atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku ou vikiviki lahi koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu: kuo fakafonu au ʻi he fiemālie, ʻoku ou fiefia lahi ʻaupito ʻi heʻemau mamahi kotoa pē.

I vse great boldnesse of speach toward you: I reioyce greatly in you: I am filled with comfort, and am exceeding ioyous in all our tribulation.

5 Koeʻuhi ʻi heʻemau hoko ki Masitōnia, naʻe ʻikai ha mālōlō ki homau kakano, ka naʻe fakamamahi ʻakimautolu mei he potu kotoa pē; naʻe ʻituʻa ʻae ngaahi tau, pea ʻi loto ʻae manavahē.

For when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on euery side, fightings without, and terrours within.

6 Ka ko e ʻOtua, ʻoku ne fakafiemālieʻi ʻakinautolu kuo lī ki lalo, naʻa ne fakafiemālieʻi ʻakimautolu, ʻi he haʻu ʻa Taitusi;

But God, that comforteth the abiect, comforted vs at the comming of Titus:

7 Pea naʻe ʻikai ʻi heʻene haʻu pe, ka ʻi he fakafiemālie ʻaia naʻe fakafiemālie ai ia ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻi heʻene tala kiate kimautolu hoʻomou holi lahi, mo hoʻomou mamahi, mo hoʻomou feinga kiate au; ko ia naʻe ʻāsili ai ʻeku fiefia.

And not by his comming onely, but also by the consolation wherewith he was comforted of you, when he tolde vs your great desire, your mourning, your feruent minde to me warde, so that I reioyced much more.

8 He ʻoku ʻikai te u fakatomala ʻi heʻeku fakamamahi ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae tohi, ka naʻaku fakatomala ai: he ʻoku ou vakai ko e tohi ko ia, kuo ne fakamamahi ʻakimoutolu, kae fuoloa siʻi pe.

For though I made you sorie with a letter, I repent not, though I did repent: for I perceiue that the same epistle made you sorie, though it were but for a season.

9 Ka ko eni, ʻoku ou fiefia, ʻoku ʻikai ʻi homou fakamamahi, ka ʻi homou mamahi ki he fakatomala: he naʻa mou mamahi ʻo tāau mo e ʻOtua, ke ʻoua naʻa mou masiva ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻiate kimautolu.

I nowe reioyce, not that ye were sorie, but that ye sorowed to repentance: for ye sorowed godly, so that in nothing ye were hurt by vs.

10 He ko e mamahi ʻoku taau mo e ʻOtua ʻoku ne langaki ʻae fakatomala ki he fakamoʻui, ʻe ʻikai toe fakatomala ai: ka ko e mamahi fakamaama, ʻoku ne langaki ʻae mate.

For godly sorowe causeth repentance vnto saluation, not to be repented of: but the worldly sorowe causeth death.

11 Vakai eni ki he meʻa ni pe, ʻa hoʻomou mamahi ʻo taau mo e ʻOtua, ki he faʻa fai naʻa ne fakatupu ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻio, ʻae fakaʻataʻatā ʻo kimoutolu, ʻae fakaʻiseʻisa, ʻae manavahē, ʻae holi lahi, ʻio, ʻae fai feinga, ʻa ʻetau tautea! Kuo mou fakahā ʻaki ia kotoa pē ʻa hoʻomou ʻataʻatā ʻi he meʻa ni.

For beholde, this thing that ye haue bene godly sory, what great care it hath wrought in you: yea, what clearing of yourselues: yea, what indignation: yea, what feare: yea, howe great desire: yea, what a zeale: yea, what reuenge: in all things ye haue shewed your selues, that ye are pure in this matter.

12 Ko ia ne u tohi kiate kimoutolu, ka naʻe ʻikai koeʻuhi ko ia pe naʻe fai ʻae kovi, pe ko ia pe naʻa ne mamahi ʻi he kovi, ka koeʻuhi ke hā ai kiate kimoutolu ʻemau tokanga kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.

Wherefore, though I wrote vnto you, I did not it for his cause that had done the wrong, neither for his cause that had the iniurie, but that our care toward you in the sight of God might appeare vnto you.

13 Ko ia naʻa mau fiemālie ʻi hoʻomou fiemālie: pea naʻe lahi hake ʻaupito ʻemau fiefia koeʻuhi ko e fiefia ʻa Taitusi, he naʻe fakafiemālieʻi hono laumālie ʻekimoutolu kotoa pē.

Therefore we were comforted, because ye were comforted: but rather we reioyced much more for the ioye of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all.

14 He kapau naʻaku polepole ʻi ha meʻa kiate ia koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, ʻoku ʻikai te u mā ai; kae hangē ko ʻemau lea kimoutolu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē, ʻoku pehē pe mo ʻemau polepole ʻi he ʻao ʻo Taitusi, ʻoku ʻilo ia ko e moʻoni.

For if that I haue boasted any thing to him of you, I haue not bene ashamed: but as I haue spoken vnto you all things in trueth, euen so our boasting vnto Titus was true.

15 Pea ko ʻene manavaʻofa ʻoku lahi hake ʻaupito kiate kimoutolu, ʻi heʻene manatu ki he talangofua ʻamoutolu kotoa pē, pea mo hoʻomou maʻu ia ʻi he manavahē mo e tetetete.

And his inwarde affection is more aboundant toward you, when he remembreth the obedience of you all, and howe with feare and trembling ye receiued him.

16 Pea ʻoku ou fiefia ʻi heʻeku falala kiate kimoutolu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē.

I reioyce therefore that I may put my confidence in you in all things.
