1Now we make known unto you, brethren, the grace of God, that hath been given in the churches of Macedonia.
1Mwet lili ac lulu, kut kena kowos in etu ma orekla in church nukewa in acn Macedonia ke sripen lungkulang lun God nu selos.
2That in much experience of tribulation, they have had abundance of joy; and their very deep poverty hath abounded unto the riches of their simplicity.
2Srikeyuk elos ke mwe lokoalok ac mwe keok puspis. Ne ouinge, engan lalos arulana yohk, pwanang mwe sang lalos wi pac yohk, elos finne arulana sukasrup.
3For according to their power (I bear them witness), and beyond their power, they were willing.
3Nga ku in fahk pwaye nu suwos lah elos sang ke kuiyalos nufon, ac yohk liki pac. Ke engan lalos sifacna,
4With much entreaty begging of us the grace and communication of the ministry that is done toward the saints.
4elos siyuk ac kwafe sesr in oasr kasru lalos nu sin mwet lun God in Judea.
5And not as we hoped, but they gave their own selves first to the Lord, then to us by the will of God:
5Ma elos oru inge alukela mwe finsrak lasr nu kac! Meet, elos eisalosyang sifacna nu sin Leum; ac toko, elos eisalosme pac nu sesr, fal nu ke lungse lun God.
6Insomuch, that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so also he would finish among you this same grace.
6Ke ma inge kut kwafel Titus, su sramtauk orekma oa se inge inmasrlowos, elan tafwelana ac kasrekowos in aksafyela.
7That as in all things you abound in faith, and word, and knowledge, and all carefulness; moreover also in your charity towards us, so in this grace also you may abound.
7Kowos arulana kasrup in ouiya nukewa ma oasr yuruwos: in lulalfongi, in pah in sramsram, ac in etauk; oayapa ke kowos akola in kasru, ac ke lungse lowos nu sesr. Ke ma inge kut lungse kowos in oayapa etaten in orekma oa se inge.
8I speak not as commanding; but by the carefulness of others, approving also the good disposition of your charity.
8Nga tia oakiya ma sap nu suwos. Tusruktu ke nga fahkak lupan moniyuk lun mwet lulalfongi saya in kasru, nga srike in konauk lupan lungse pwaye lowos uh.
9For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that being rich he became poor, for your sakes; that through his poverty you might be rich.
9Kowos etu lah ke sripen lungkulang lun Leum lasr Jesus Christ, el ne arulana kasrup a el sifacna aksukasrupyal tuh kowos in ku in kasrupi.
10And herein I give my advice; for this is profitable for you, who have begun not only to do, but also to be willing, a year ago.
10Pa inge nunak luk ke ma se inge: ac wo kowos in aksafyela inge ma kowos tuh mutawauk oru ke yac tari ah. Kowos pa sramtauk ouiya se inge, ac tia ma inge mukena a kowos tuh arulana engan in oru.
11Now therefore perform ye it also in deed; that as your mind is forward to be willing, so it may be also to perform, out of that which you have.
11Ke ma inge, kowos in oru na nwe ke na kowos aksafyela! Kowos in moniyuk in aksafyela oana ke kowos tuh moniyuk in lumahla, ac oru ke ma oasr yuruwos.
12For if the will be forward, it is accepted according to that which a man hath, not according to that which he hath not.
12Kowos fin inse akola in sang, God El ac engan in eis mwe sang lowos, fal nu ke ma oasr yuruwos in sang, ac tia ke ma su wangin yuruwos.
13For I mean not that others should be eased, and you burthened, but by an equality.
13Nga tia fahk mu in fisrasr nu sin mwet saya ac in toasr nu suwos,
14In this present time let your abundance supply their want, that their abundance also may supply your want, that there may be an equality,
14a ke sripen oasr suna yuruwos ke pacl se inge, ac fal na kowos in kasrelos su muta in enenu. Na tok, pacl kowos enenu ac mau oasr suna yorolos, na elos fah kasrekowos. In ouiya se inge kowos nukewa akasrui oana sie.
15As it is written: He that had much, had nothing over; and he that had little, had no want.
15Oana Ma Simusla uh fahk: “El su sifani yohk, wangin ma lula yorol; ac el su sifani srik, wangin enenu lal.”
16And thanks be to God, who hath given the same carefulness for you in the heart of Titus.
16Kut kulo nu sin God lah El oru tuh Titus elan kena kasrekowos oana kut!
17For indeed he accepted the exhortation; but being more careful, of his own will he went unto you.
17Ke kut tuh siyuk elan kasru enenu lasr, el insese nu kac, tusruktu ke sripen lungse yohk lal el sifacna sulela elan fahsrot in kasre kowos.
18We have sent also with him the brother, whose praise is in the gospel through all the churches.
18Ac kut oayapa supwaot, welul Titus, sie mwet wiasr su arulana lulalfongiyuk in church nukewa ke sripen orekma lal in fahkak Pweng Wo.
19And not that only, but he was also ordained by the churches companion of our travels, for this grace, which is administered by us, to the glory of the Lord, and our determined will:
19Sayen ma ingan, el sulosolla ac srisrngiyuki in church puspis in wi kut fufahsryesr ke kut us mwe lung inge, su ma nu ke wolana lun Leum, ac mwe akkalemye lah kut lungse kasru.
20Avoiding this, lest any man should blame us in this abundance which is administered by us.
20Kut arulana karinganang tuh in wangin kas in akkoluk lun mwet ke luman usyen mwe sang yohk lowos inge sesr.
21For we forecast what may be good not only before God, but also before men.
21Kut kena oru ma suwohs, tia ye mutun Leum God mukena, a oayapa ye mutun mwet uh.
22And we have sent with them our brother also, whom we have often proved diligent in many things; but now much more diligent, with much confidence in you,
22Ke ma inge kut supwaot sie mwet wiasr in welulos. Kut srikal pacl pus ac kut konauk lah el kena kasru pacl nukewa. Ac inge, ke oasr lulalfongi yohk lal keiwos, el akola tari elan akyokye orekma in kasru lal.
23Either for Titus, who is my companion and fellow labourer towards you, or our brethren, the apostles of the churches, the glory of Christ.
23Ac funu kacl Titus, el mwet wiyu orekma in kasrekowos. Ac ke mwet wiasr saya su ac welul fahsrot, elos aol kais sie church in fahkak wolana nu sin Christ.
24Wherefore shew ye to them, in the sight of the churches, the evidence of your charity, and of our boasting on your behalf.
24Akkalemye lungse lowos nu selos, tuh church nukewa fah akpwayei, ac etu lah pwaye sesr in konkin keiwos.
