1If I must glory (it is not expedient indeed), but I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
1Nga enenu na in konkin, finne ac wangin sripa. Tusruktu inge nga ac kaskas ke aruruma ac kutu pac ma saya ma Leum el akkalemye nu sik.
2I know a man in Christ above fourteen years ago (whether in the body, I know not, or out of the body, I know not; God knoweth), such a one caught up to the third heaven.
2Nga etu sie mwet Christian su utukyak nu yen fulatlana inkusrao ke yac singoul akosr somla. (Nga tia etu lah utukyak el in manol ku ngunal mukena — God mukena pa etu.)
3And I know such a man (whether in the body, or out of the body, I know not: God knoweth),
3Ac nga etu lah mwet se inge utukyak nu in Paradise (nga tia pac etu lah ma se inge sikyak na pwaye ku aruruma se na — God mukena etu),
4That he was caught up into paradise, and heard secret words, which it is not granted to man to utter.
4ac el lohng kutu ma we su el tia ku in aketeya, ma su tia fal mwet uh in sramsramkin.
5For such an one I will glory; but for myself I will glory nothing, but in my infirmities.
5Na nga fah konkin ke mwet sac — a nga fah tia konkin keik sifacna, sayen ma su fahkak munas luk.
6For though I should have a mind to glory, I shall not be foolish; for I will say the truth. But I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth in me, or any thing he heareth from me.
6Nga fin ke konkin nga tia sie mwet lalfon, mweyen nga ac kaskas ke ma pwaye. Tusruktu nga fah tia konkin, mweyen nga tia lungse kutena mwet in akfulatyeyu in nunak lal yohk liki ma el sifacna liye nga oru, ac lohng nga fahk.
7And lest the greatness of the revelations should exalt me, there was given me a sting of my flesh, an angel of Satan, to buffet me.
7Tusruktu in taranyu in tia fulatak nunak luk ke sripen ma wolana puspis su nga tuh liye, ituku nu in monuk sie mwe munas na akkeok, su oana in sie ma supweyuk sel Satan in fiskiyu ac sikulyu ngan tia inse fulat.
8For which thing thrice I besought the Lord, that it might depart from me.
8Pacl tolu nga pre nu sin Leum Jesus ke ma se inge, ac siyuk sel elan eisla likiyu.
9And he said to me: My grace is sufficient for thee; for power is made perfect in infirmity. Gladly therefore will I glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may dwell in me.
9Ac El fahk nu sik: “Pwayena ma kom enenu pa kulang luk, tuh ku luk uh arulana yohk ke pacl kom munas.” Ke ma inge, nga arulana engan in konkin ke munas luk, tuh ku lun Christ in oan in nga.
10For which cause I please myself in my infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ. For when I am weak, then am I powerful.
10Nga engankin mwe munas, kas in akkoluk, ma upa, mwe kalya, ac mwe keok ke sripen Christ. Tuh ke nga munas, pa inge pacl nga ku.
11I am become foolish: you have compelled me. For I ought to have been commended by you: for I have no way come short of them that are above measure apostles, although I be nothing.
11Nga kaskas oana sie mwet lalfon — tusruktu kowos pa oru in ouinge uh. Kowos pa fal in akkalemye lulalfongi lowos keik. Tuh nga finne mwet pilasr, nga tia srik liki “mwet sap fulat” lowos ingan.
12Yet the signs of my apostleship have been wrought on you, in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.
12Mwenmen oayapa mwe akul puspis orek inmasrlowos in akpwayei lah nga sie mwet sap, ac nga muteng in oru ma inge.
13For what is there that you have had less than the other churches, but that I myself was not burthensome to you? Pardon me this injury.
13Ya oasr ma orek nu suwos koluk liki church ngia? Ma sefanna, nga tuh tia ngusr mani suwos. Kwal, nga siyuk kowos in nunak munas nu sik ke tafongla se inge.
14Behold now the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burthensome unto you. For I seek not the things that are yours, but you. For neither ought the children to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
14Pa inge pacl se aktolu ma nga akoo in fahsrot nu yuruwos — ac nga fah tia oru kutena ma in akkwacoye kowos. Kowos pa nga enenu, tia mani lowos an. Nuna fal tulik uh in tia fosrngakin papa tumalos ac nina kialos, a papa ac nina in fosrngakin tulik natulos.
15But I most gladly will spend and be spent myself for your souls; although loving you more, I be loved less.
15Nga fah engan in sot ma nukewa ma oasr yuruk, oayapa moul luk sifacna, tuh nga in kasrekowos. Ya kowos ac fah aksrikyela lungse lowos nu sik ke lungse luk nu suwos arulana yohk?
16But be it so: I did not burthen you: but being crafty, I caught you by guile.
16Nga mu kowos ac insese nu sik lah nga tiana akkwacoye kowos. Tusruktu sahp ac oasr mwet ac fahk mu nga aklalfonye kowos, ac sruokkowosi ke kas kikiap.
17Did I overreach you by any of them whom I sent to you?
17Fuka? Ya oasr mwet ma nga supwaot nu yuruwos tuh aklalfonye kowos?
18I desired Titus, and I sent with him a brother. Did Titus overreach you? Did we not walk with the same spirit? did we not in the same steps?
18Nga kwafel Titus elan fahsrot, ac nga supwaot pac sie mwet lulalfongi wiasr in welul. Ya kowos ku in fahk mu Titus el aklalfonye kowos? Ya nga Titus tia nunak sefanna ac oru ouiya sefanna?
19Of old, think you that we excuse ourselves to you? We speak before God in Christ; but all things, my dearly beloved, for your edification.
19Sahp kowos nunku mu ma nukewa kut oru fahfahsru ma in akwoye kut sifacna ye motowos. Mo, tia ouinge! Kut kaskas in ou lungse lun Christ ye mutun God, ac ma nukewa kut oru, kut oru in kasrekowos, mwet kawuk saok lasr.
20For I fear lest perhaps when I come I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found by you such as you would not. Lest perhaps contentions, envyings, animosities, dissensions, detractions, whisperings, swellings, seditions, be among you.
20Nga sensen mu ke nga ac sun kowos nga ac konauk lah kowos sie liki na ma nga motko kowos nu kac, ac kowos ac liye lah nga sie liki na motko lowos keik uh. Nga sensen lah ac oasr akukuin ac sok, mongsa ac nunku kac sifacna, akkasrkusrak ac lesrik, inse fulat ac fohs.
21Lest again, when I come, God humble me among you: and I mourn many of them that sinned before, and have not done penance for the uncleanness, and fornication, and lasciviousness, that they have committed.
21Ac mwe pakomuta nu sik lah ke nga ac sifil fahsrot, God luk El ac akmwekinyeyu ye motowos, ac nga fah tung ke mwet puspis su orekma koluk in pacl somla ac tiana auliyak ke lumah kupatol elos oru — orekma in kosro ac lung lun ikwa.
