Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1Therefore, since God in His mercy has given us this ministry, we do not lose heart.
1Jendrangundruja, ngangau ngaiani ninapini ngamalkijiribanila ngamalkai kalumiltjamiltjarinandru nauja ngaianingu matja pantjina, ngaiani wata walturiai,
2Instead, we have renounced secret and shameful ways. We do not practice deceit, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by open proclamation of the truth, we commend ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.
2A‐ai, ngaiani bakana ninta kurukuru woranala, ja ngaiani wata kiri tjikatjikani wirariai, bakana wata Godaia jaura tjautjau ngankai; a‐ai, ngaiani morlalulaia tinkari ngankanali munta wondrateriai kana pratjanaia ngara ngaialani Godaia mudlandru.
3And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing.
3Ngantjani jaura ngaianini kurukuru ngananani, jeruja nauja tanangu kurukuru nganai, tana tintaterila nganai.
4The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers so they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
4Tanangu nunkangupini mitaia Godali delkinietjaia tjuru butju ngankana wonti, tanangu Christuni ngantjani jauraia pirnalaia praitji wata mintjinanto, naupini Godaia mudla nganai.
5For we do not proclaim ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake.
5Ngangau ngaiani wata ngaianina muntali kaukaubai, a‐ai, Christus Jesus Kapara; ja ngaianina muntali jurani mili Jesungundru.
6For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made His light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
6Ngangau Naupini Goda, Nulia jirijiribana wonti ngalpurandru praitji mintjina dunkana tarananto, Naupini bakana ngaianingu ngarani mintjina wonti Godaia pirnalaia ngujamanaia mintjinaia Jesuni Christuni mudlani. (Dakani jaura Bartholomäi ditjini.)
7Now we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this surpassingly great power is from God and not from us.
7Ngaiani ninapini poto pirna mita kokuni ngamalkai, ngangau ngurulaia manamirila Godandru nganananto ja wata ngaianingundru.
8We are hard pressed on all sides, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair;
8Tanali ngaianina nguja marapujeli jeniai, ja wata wuldru ngankai; ngaianina wurpuru ngankai, ja wata kantji marariai;
9persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.
9Tana ngaianingu tirikaripateriai, ja Nulia ngaianina wata worani patai; tanali ngaianina wailpai, ja ngaiani wata tintateriai.
10We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.
10Ngaiani milingeru Jesuni nari palkuni wiralkai, ngangau bakana Jesuni tepi palkuni ngaianinani wondraterinanto.
11For we who are alive are always consigned to death for Jesus’ sake, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our mortal body.
11Tanalia ngaianina, matja tepi, milingeru naria jinkiai Jesungundru, ngangau bakana Jesuni tepi ngaianingu naria palkuni wondraterinanto.
12So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
12Jeruja nari ngaianingu ngankai, ja tepi jurangu.
13And in keeping with what is written: “I believed, therefore I have spoken,” we who have the same spirit of faith also believe and therefore speak,
13Ngangau ngaiani, ninapini morlalu ngundranaia Jaola ngamalkai, worderu dakanala parai: „Ngato morlalu ngundrana warai, jendrangundruja ngato bakana kaukaubana warai;“ jeruja bakana ngaiani morlalu ngundrai, jendrangundruja ngaiani bakana kaukaubai.
14knowing that the One who raised the Lord Jesus will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you in His presence.
14Ngangau ngaiani milkila, Nulupini, Nulia Kapara Jesu jiritjibana wonti, Nulia bakana ngaianina Jesungunto jiritjibala nganai, ja jurangu jela terkibala nganai.
15All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is extending to more and more people may overflow in thanksgiving, to the glory of God.
15Jenia pratjana jurangundru pantjiai, ngangau manjula, nina marapujeli matja marapurina, jurakokana manamiri ngankananto Godaia pirnalaia.
16Therefore we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, yet our inner self is being renewed day by day.
16Jendrangundruja ngaiani wata wurpuru pantjiai, a‐ai, tanali ngaianini palku teribanani; jeruja ngaianini kana marra marrariai ditjini pratjanani.
17For our light and momentary affliction is producing for us an eternal glory that is far beyond comparison.
17Ngangau ketjaketjana ngaianini, nauja windri karari ja ngaua nganai, ngaianingu nguralia matia pirnala manamiri ngankai;
18So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
18Ngangau ngaiani wata ngurutalpana najiai mina kantji parai, a‐ai, nunkangu, mina ngaiani wata najiai; ngangau mina ngaiani najiai, windri mitawirdi nganai, ja mina ngaiani wata najiai, ngurali nganai.
