2 Korin 4
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Berean Standard Bible
1Kaicae loe hae baktih toksahkung ah a oh o moe, palungnathaih a hnuk o pongah, tha a zok o ai;
1Therefore, since God in His mercy has given us this ministry, we do not lose heart.
2tamquta hoi sak ih azat kathok hmuennawk to ka takhoe o moe, minawk aling han poek angkawnhaih hoiah Sithaw lok ka thui o ai; minawk mah ang tang o thai hanah, loktang lok to ni ka thuih o, tito Sithaw mah panoek.
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.
3Ka thuih o ih kahoih tamthanglok to hawk o ving cadoeh, anghmaa angtaa kaminawk hanah ni hawk o tih:
3And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing.
4Sithaw krang ah kaom, Kri lensawkhaih kahoih tamthanglok aanghaih to, nihcae mah hnuk o thai han ai ah, hae long sithaw mah katang ai kaminawk ih palung to maengsak.
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.
5Kaicae loe kaimacae koeh ah lok ka thui o ai, Kri Jesu loe Angraeng ah ohhaih kawng hoi Jesu pongah kaicae loe nangcae ih tamna ah ka oh o haih kawng to ni ka taphong o.
5For we do not proclaim ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake.
6Sithaw mah, Kaving thung hoiah aanghaih om nasoe, tiah lokpaek. Sithaw lensawkhaih loe Jesu Kri ah oh, tiah na panoek thai hanah, aicae palung thungah aanghaih to paek.
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.
7Toe lensawk thacakhaih loe kaicae ih na ai ni, Sithaw khae hoiah ni angzoh, kaicae loe long laom thungah suek ih tacong baktiah ni ka oh o.
7Now we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this surpassingly great power is from God and not from us.
8Ahmuen kruekah raihaih ka tongh o, toe kam ro o ai; anghmanghaih hoiah kho ka sak o, toe palung ka boeng o ai;
8We are hard pressed on all sides, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair;
9pacaekthlaekhaih ka tongh o, toe ka toengh o sut ai; kam timh o, toe kam ro o ai;
9persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.
10Jesu hinghaih kaicae takpum nuiah amtueng thai toeng hanah, Angraeng Jesu duekhaih kawng to takpum ah ka phawh o poe.
10We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.
11Kadueh thaih kaicae taksa ah Jesu hinghaih amtueng thai hanah, kahing kaicae loe Jesu Kri pongah duek hanah danpaekhaih ka tongh o toepsoep.
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.
12To tiah duekhaih mah kaicae thungah toksak, toe nangcae thungah loe hinghaih mah toksak.
12So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
13Ka tang pongah, ka thuih, tiah tarik ih oh; to baktih tanghaih palung to ka tawnh o, tanghaih ka tawnh o pongah, ka thuih o;
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,
14Sithaw mah Angraeng Jesu duekhaih thung hoiah pathawk baktih toengah, kaicae doeh Jesu rang hoiah pathawk ueloe, nangcae hoi nawnto angmah hmaa ah na caeh haih tih, tiah ka panoek o.
14knowing that the One who raised the Lord Jesus will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you in His presence.
15Paroeai kaminawk mah Sithaw tahmenhaih to panoek o moe, Sithaw lensawkhaih pakoeh o thai hanah, hmuennawk boih nangcae han ih ni oh.
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.
16To pongah tha ka zok o ai; a nui kaom taksa kami hae amro cadoeh, a thungah kaom kami loe ni thokkruek kangtha ah oh.
16Therefore we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, yet our inner self is being renewed day by day.
17Atue setta thung a tongh o ih tetta pacaekthlaekhaih mah, aicae hanah kahoih parai, dungzan lensawkhaih to ohsak;
17For our light and momentary affliction is producing for us an eternal glory that is far beyond comparison.
18to pongah kaicae loe kamtueng hmuennawk to ka dan o ai, kamtueng ai hmuennawk to ni ka dan o: ka hnuk o ih hmuennawk loe nawnetta hanah ni oh; toe hnuk ai ih hmuennawk loe dungzan khoek to cak poe.
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.
