Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Ko au Paula, ko e ʻaposetolo ʻa Sisu Kalaisi ʻi he finangalo ʻoe ʻOtua, pea mo Timote ko hotau kāinga, ki he siasi ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoku ʻi Kolinitō, fakataha mo e kāinga māʻoniʻoni fulipē ʻoku ʻi ʻAkeia kotoa pē:
1Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints which are in all Achaia:
2Ke ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻofa mo e melino mei he ʻOtua ko ʻetau Tamai, pea mei he ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.
2Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3Fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua, mo e Tamai ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, ko e Tamai ʻae ngaahi ʻaloʻofa, mo e ʻOtua ʻoe fiemālie kotoa pē;
3Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
4ʻAia ʻoku ne fakafiemālieʻi ʻakimautolu ʻi heʻemau mamahi kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ke mau faʻa fai ai ke fakafiemālieʻi ʻakinautolu ʻoku mamahiʻia, ʻaki ʻae fakafiemālie ko ia ʻaia ʻoku fakafiemālieʻi ʻaki ʻakimautolu ʻe he ʻOtua.
4Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
5He ʻoku hangē ʻae tupulekina ʻoe ngaahi mamahi ʻa Kalaisi ʻiate kimautolu, ʻoku pehē, ʻoku tupulekina foki ʻemau fiemālie ʻia Kalaisi.
5For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.
6Pea kapau ʻoku mau mamahi, ko e meʻa ia ki hoʻomou fiemālie mo e fakamoʻui, ʻaia ʻoku ngāue lelei ke mou faʻa kātaki ʻae ngaahi mamahi ko ia ʻoku mau kātaki foki: pea kapau kuo fakafiemālieʻi ʻakimautolu, ko hoʻomou fakafiemālie ia mo e fakamoʻui.
6And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.
7Pea ʻoku tuʻumaʻu pe ʻemau ʻamanaki lelei kiate kimoutolu, ko ʻemau ʻilo, ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻomou kau ʻi he ngaahi mamahi, te mou kau foki ʻi he fiemālie.
7And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.
8He ʻoku ʻikai ko homau loto ke mou taʻeʻilo, ʻe kāinga, ki heʻemau ngaahi mamahi naʻe hoko kiate kimautolu ʻi ʻEsia, koeʻuhi naʻe taʻomia lahi hake ʻaupito ia ʻi heʻemau mālohi, ko ia naʻe ʻikai ai te mau ʻamanaki ki he moʻui:
8For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life:
9Ka naʻa mau ongoʻi kuo tukupau ʻakimautolu ki he mate, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa mau falala kiate kimautolu, ka ki he ʻOtua ʻaia ʻoku ne fokotuʻu hake ʻae mate:
9But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead:
10ʻAia naʻa ne fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu mei he mate lahi ko ia, pea ʻoku ne kei fakamoʻui: pea ʻoku mau falala te ne kei fakamoʻui pe;
10Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us ;
11ʻI he tokoni fakataha ʻakimoutolu foki ʻi he lotua ʻakimautolu, koeʻuhi ko e foaki kuo tuku kiate kimautolu ʻi he kau ʻae tokolahi, ʻe ʻatu ai ʻae fakafetaʻi ʻe he tokolahi koeʻuhi ko kimautolu.
11Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.
12He ko ʻemau fiefiaʻanga eni, ko e fakamoʻoni ʻo homau loto, koeʻuhi ʻi he loto taha, mo e moʻoni fakaʻotua, kae ʻikai ʻi he poto fakakakano, kae ʻi he ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, kuo mau fai homau lakanga ʻi he māmani, kae lahi taha pe kiate kimoutolu.
12For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.
13He ʻoku ʻikai te mau tohi ha meʻa kehe kiate kimoutolu, ka ko ia pe ʻoku mou ʻilo mo tui ki ai; pea ʻoku ou ʻamanaki ke mou tui ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga;
13For we write none other things unto you, than what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end;
14ʻO hangē ko e ʻilo ʻakimautolu foki ʻe homou niʻihi, ko homou fiefiaʻanga ʻakimautolu, ʻio, ʻo hangē ʻoku ʻamautolu ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sisu.
14As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also are ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.
15Pea ʻi he tui ni naʻaku loto ke ʻalu atu kiate kimoutolu ʻi muʻa, koeʻuhi ke mou maʻu hono ua ʻoe meʻaʻofa;
15And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye might have a second benefit;
16Pea ke u ʻalu atu ʻiate kimoutolu ki Masitōnia, pea ke u toe haʻu mei Masitōnia kiate kimoutolu, pea ke ʻiate kimoutolu ke moimoiʻi au ʻi hoku fononga ki Siutea.
16And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.
17Pea ʻi heʻeku loto ki ai, naʻaku vaʻivaʻinga ʻaki? Pe ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ou tuʻutuʻuni, ʻoku ou tuʻutuʻuni ʻo fakatatau ki he kakano, koeʻuhi ke ʻiate au ʻae “ʻIo ʻio,” mo “ʻIkai ʻikai?”
17When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea yea, and nay nay?
18Ka ʻoku moʻoni ʻae ʻOtua, ko ʻemau lea atu kiate kimoutolu naʻe ʻikai ko e “ʻIo” mo “ʻIkai.”
18But as God is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay.
19He ko e ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua, ko Sisu Kalaisi, ʻaia naʻe malangaʻaki kiate kimoutolu ʻekimautolu, ʻio , ʻe au mo Silivenusi mo Timote, naʻe ʻikai ko e “ʻIo” mo “ʻIkai,” ka naʻe “ʻIo” pe ʻiate ia.
19For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea.
20He ko e ngaahi talaʻofa kotoa pē ʻae ʻOtua ʻoku “ʻIo” pe ʻiate ia, pea “ʻEmeni” ʻiate ia, ki he ongoongolelei ʻoe ʻOtua ʻiate kimautolu.
20For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
21Pea ko e ʻOtua ia, ʻaia ʻoku ne fakatuʻumaʻu ʻakimautolu fakataha mo kimoutolu ʻia Kalaisi, pea ko ia ia ne ne pani ʻakitautolu;
21Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God;
22ʻAia kuo ne fakaʻilonga foki ʻakitautolu, ʻo ne foaki mai ʻae fakamoʻoni, ko e Laumālie ʻi hotau loto.
22Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
23Ka ʻoku ou ui ki he ʻOtua ke ne fakamoʻoni ki hoku laumālie, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku ʻofa kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku teʻeki te u ʻalu atu ai ki Kolinitō.
23Moreover I call God for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth.
24Ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e meʻa ke mau puleʻi hoʻomou tui, ka ko e kau tokoni ki hoʻomou fiefia: he ʻoku mou tuʻu ʻi he tui.
24Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.
