1And we helping do exhort you, that you receive not the grace of God in vain.
1Ko ia ko kimautolu, ko e kaunga ngāue fakataha, ʻoku mau fakakolekole foki ke ʻoua naʻa mou maʻu tōnoa ʻae ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua.
2For he saith: In an accepted time have I heard thee; and in the day of salvation have I helped thee. Behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.
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.)
3Giving no offence to any man, that our ministry be not blamed:
3Ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha tūkiaʻanga ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa fakaongokovi ʻae ngāue:
4But in all things let us exhibit ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in tribulation, in necessities, in distresses,
4Ka 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,
5In stripes, in prisons, in seditions, in labours, in watchings, in fastings,
5ʻI he haha, ʻi he nofo fale fakapōpula, ʻi he maveuveu, ʻi he ngaahi ngāue mamafa, ʻi he faʻa leʻo, ʻi he faʻa ʻaukai;
6In chastity, in knowledge, in longsuffering, in sweetness, in the Holy Ghost, in charity unfeigned,
6ʻI he māʻoniʻoni, ʻi he ʻilo, ʻi he kātaki fuoloa, ʻi he angaʻofa, ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, ʻi he ʻofa taʻeloi,
7In the word of truth, in the power of God; by the armour of justice on the right hand and on the left;
7ʻI he lea ʻoe moʻoni, ʻi he mālohi ʻae ʻOtua, ʻi he mahafutau ʻoe māʻoniʻoni ʻi he nima toʻomataʻu pea ʻi he toʻohema,
8By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report; as deceivers, and yet true; as unknown, and yet known;
8ʻI he fakaʻapaʻapa mo e taʻefakaʻapaʻapa, ʻi he ongokovi mo e ongolelei: ʻo hangē ko e kau kākā, ka ʻoku moʻoni;
9As dying, and behold we live; as chastised, and not killed;
9Hangē ko e taʻeʻilo, ka ʻoku ʻilo lahi; hangē ko e mate, pea ʻiloange, ʻoku tau moʻui; hangē ko e tautea, ka ʻoku ʻikai tāmateʻi;
10As sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as needy, yet enriching many; as having nothing, and possessing all things.
10Hangē 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.
11Our mouth is open to you, O ye Corinthians, our heart is enlarged.
11ʻAe kakai Kolinitō, ʻoku matoʻo homau ngutu kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku tupu ʻo lahi homau loto.
12You are not straitened in us, but in your own bowels you are straitened.
12ʻOku ʻikai te mou ʻefihia ʻiate kimautolu, ka ʻoku mou ʻefihia ʻi he ʻofa ʻamoutolu pe.
13But having the same recompense, (I speak as to my children,) be you also enlarged.
13Pea ko eni, ko hono totongi ʻi he meʻa ni, (ʻoku ou lea ʻo hangē ki heʻeku fānau) ke fakaʻataʻatā ʻakimoutolu foki.
14Bear not the yoke with unbelievers. For what participation hath justice with injustice? Or what fellowship hath light with darkness?
14ʻOua 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?
15And what concord hath Christ with Belial? Or what part hath the faithful with the unbeliever?
15Pea ʻoku kau taha fēfē ʻa Kalaisi mo Pileali? Pea ʻoku ʻinasi taha ʻi he hā ʻaia ʻoku tui mo e taʻetui?
16And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God; as God saith: I will dwell in them, and walk among them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
16Pea 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.”
17Wherefore, Go out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing:
17ʻOku 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:”
18And I will receive you; and I will be a Father to you; and you shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
18ʻOku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki Māfimafi, “Te u ʻiate kimoutolu ko e Tamai, pea ko hoku ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine ʻakimoutolu.”
