Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Now I Paul, myself, entreat you by the humility and gentleness of Christ, I who in your presence am lowly among you, but being absent am bold toward you.
1Nga Paul, kwafe nu suwos ke nunak luk sifacna — nga, su kutu mwet uh fahk mu nga filpap ac tupwek ke pacl nga wi kowos, a nga kaskas upa ke nga muta loes liki kowos. Ke pusisel ac kulang lun Christ nga kwafe suwos
2Yes, I beg you that I may not, when present, show courage with the confidence with which I intend to be bold against some, who consider us to be walking according to the flesh.
2in tia oru tuh nga in kaskas upa ke pacl nga ac tuku; tuh nga etu na pwaye lah nga ku in kaskas upa nu selos su fahk mu kut orekma ke ouiya lun faclu.
3For though we walk in the flesh, we don’t wage war according to the flesh;
3Pwaye lah kut moul fin faclu, tusruktu kut tia mweun ke lumah lun faclu.
4for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds,
4Kufwen mweun ma kut orekmakin in mweun lasr tia kufwen mweun lun faclu, a kufwen mwe mweun kulana lun God, ma kut orekmakin in kunausla pot ku lun mwet mweun. Kut kunausla kas in akukuin kikiap;
5throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,
5kut kunausla nunak fulat nukewa su kosrala mwet in etu ke God. Kut kutongya nunak nukewa lun mwet uh, ac oru elos in akos Christ.
6and being in readiness to avenge all disobedience when your obedience is made full.
6Ac tukun kowos akpwayeye inse pwaye lowos, kut ac fah akola in kai kutena mwet su seakos.
7Do you look at things only as they appear in front of your face? If anyone trusts in himself that he is Christ’s, let him consider this again with himself, that even as he is Christ’s, so we also are Christ’s.
7Kowos liye na likin ma uh. Ya oasr sie mwet inmasrlowos su nunku mu el ma lun Christ? Lela elan sifacna tonel, mweyen kut ma lun Christ oapana el.
8For even if I boast somewhat abundantly concerning our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for casting you down, I will not be ashamed,
8Tuh nga tia mwekin, nga finne konkin yokla ke ku se ma Leum El ase nu sesr — ku se inge ma in musaikowosyak, ac tia in kunauskowosla.
9that I may not seem as if I desire to terrify you by my letters.
9Nga tia lungse kowos in nunku mu nga srike in aksangengye kowos ke leta luk uh.
10For, “His letters”, they say, “are weighty and strong, but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech is despised.”
10Oasr mwet ac fahk, “Leta lal Paul uh upa ac ku, tusruktu pacl el muta yorosr, el munas ac kas lal uh wangin sripa!”
11Let such a person consider this, that what we are in word by letters when we are absent, such are we also in deed when we are present.
11Kain mwet se ingan enenu in kalem kac lah wangin ekla inmasrlon ma kut simus ke leta lasr ke pacl kut muta loesla, ac ma kut ac oru ke pacl kut oasr yuruwos.
12For we are not bold to number or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves. But they themselves, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are without understanding.
12Kut ac fah tiana lumwekut sifacna oana elos su oakalos mu elos mwet fulat. Elos arulana lalfon! Elos sifacna orala mwe srikasrak lalos ac sifacna srikalos nu kac, na elos nununkalos sifacna fal nu ke oakwuk lalos inge!
13But we will not boast beyond proper limits, but within the boundaries with which God appointed to us, which reach even to you.
13A funu kut, konkin lasr fah tia alukela lupa fal; a ac fah fal na nu ke orekma se su God El oakiya nu sesr, su kowos oasr pac kac.
14For we don’t stretch ourselves too much, as though we didn’t reach to you. For we came even as far as to you with the Good News of Christ,
14Ac ke sripen kowos oasr ke orekma kunasr inge, kut tiana alukela ma fal ke kut tuh tuku nu yuruwos ac us Pweng Wo ke Christ.
15not boasting beyond proper limits in other men’s labors, but having hope that as your faith grows, we will be abundantly enlarged by you in our sphere of influence,
15Ke ma inge kut tia konkin ke orekma ma mwet saya orala, su alukela ma God El oaki nu sesr. A kut finsrak mu lulalfongi lowos fah kapak, ac orekma lasr yuruwos fah ku in yokelik, ac pacl nukewa in fal nu ke srikasrak ma God El oakiya.
16so as to preach the Good News even to the parts beyond you, not to boast in what someone else has already done.
16Na kut fah ku in fahkak Pweng Wo in kutu pac acn loesla liki kowos, ac tia enenu in konkin ke ma orekla tari sin kutu pac mwet in acn se ma God El sang elos in orekma we.
17But “he who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.”
17A oana ke Ma Simusla uh fahk, “Kutena mwet su lungse konkin, lela elan konkin ke ma Leum El orala.”
18For it isn’t he who commends himself who is approved, but whom the Lord commends.
18Tuh mwet se ma Leum El insewowo kac pa ac akfulatyeyuk, ac tia mwet se ma sifacna kaksakunul.
