1It is doubtless not profitable for me to boast, but I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
1Amoek hae kai han atho om ai, toe Angraeng mah ang patuek ih hmuen hoi amtuengsak ih hmuennawk to kam oek haih han vop.
2I know a man in Christ who was caught up into the third heaven fourteen years ago—whether in the body, I don’t know, or whether out of the body, I don’t know; God knows.
2Kalaem tangcae saning hatlai palito naah Kri ah kaom kami maeto ka panoek, (taksa ah maw, ka thui thai ai; taksa ai ah maw, ka thui thai ai: Sithaw mah panoek;) to kami to van asom thumto haih ah lak tahang.
3I know such a man (whether in the body, or outside of the body, I don’t know; God knows),
3To kami maeto to ka panoek, (taksa ah maw, to tih ai boeh loe taksa ai ah, ka thui thai ai: Sithaw mah panoek;)
4how he was caught up into Paradise and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
4anih loe paradise ah lak tahang moe, lok hoiah thuilaek ai, kami mah thuih koi ai loknawk to a thaih.
5On behalf of such a one I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except in my weaknesses.
5To baktih kami maeto to kam oek haih han: ka thazokhaih khue ai ah loe, kaimah hoi kaimah loe kam oek haih mak ai.
6For if I would desire to boast, I will not be foolish; for I will speak the truth. But I refrain, so that no man may think more of me than that which he sees in me or hears from me.
6Amoek han ka koeh aep to mah, kamthu ah ka om mak ai; loktang ni ka thuih han. Toe kami mah kai to hnuk moe, kai khae hoi a thaih ih tamthang pong kamthlai ah a poek moeng han ai ah, thui ai ah ka oh.
7By reason of the exceeding greatness of the revelations, that I should not be exalted excessively, a thorn in the flesh was given to me: a messenger of Satan to torment me, that I should not be exalted excessively.
7Thuilaek ai amtuenghaih ka hnuk pongah, ka sakthaihaih pong kamthlai ah kam oek moeng han ai ah, kai pacaekthlaek hanah Setan ih laicaeh maeto ah kaom, soekhring to ka taksa thungah ang suek pae.
8Concerning this thing, I begged the Lord three times that it might depart from me.
8Hae baktih karai hmuen ang takhoe pae ving hanah, Angraeng khaeah vai thumto tahmenhaih ka hnik.
9He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me.
9Toe Anih mah kai khaeah, Ka tahmenhaih loe nang hanah khawt: thazok naah ni ka thacakhaih hoiah akoep, tiah ang naa. Kri thacakhaih ka nuiah oh thai hanah, ka thazokhaih to ni kam oek haih han.
10Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, and in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong.
10To pongah Kri hanah loe thazokhaih, kasae thuihaih, amtanghaih, pacaekthlaekhaih hoi karai tonghaihnawk to ka koeh: tha ka zok naah, thacakhaih hoiah ka koi.
11I have become foolish in boasting. You compelled me, for I ought to have been commended by you, for I am in no way inferior to the very best apostles, though I am nothing.
11Kai loe kamthu maeto baktiah kam oek boeh; toe nangcae mah ni to tiah nang oh o sak. Kai hae nang pakoeh o han oh; kai loe tidoeh na ai ni, toe patoeh ih kalen koek kami pongah ka hnaem kue ai.
12Truly the signs of an apostle were worked among you in all perseverance, in signs and wonders and mighty works.
12Nangcae khaeah ka oh naah, palungsawkhaih hoiah ni ka oh, angmathaih hmuennawk, dawnrai koi kaom hmuennawk to patoeh ih kami maeto mah anghmang kaom thacakhaih hoiah nangcae salakah kamnoek ah amtuengsak boeh.
13For what is there in which you were made inferior to the rest of the assemblies, unless it is that I myself was not a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong!
13Nangcae han hmuenzit ah ka om ai tiah thuih ih lok thui ai ah loe, kawbaktih hmuen pongah maw kalah kricaabunawk pongah na hnaem o kuehaih oh? To tiah ka sakpazaehaih to na tahmen oh.
14Behold, this is the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden to you; for I seek not your possessions, but you. For the children ought not to save up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
14Khenah, nangcae khaeah vai thumto haih paqai hanah kam sak; toe nangcae raihaih kang paek mak ai: na tawnh o ih hmuenmae to ka pakrong ai, nangmacae to ni ka pakrong. Nawktanawk mah amno hoi ampa hanah hmuenmae patung pae ai, amno hoi ampa mah ni nawktanawk hanah hmuenmae patung pae.
15I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I loved the less?
15Kai nang palung o ai cadoeh, kai mah kang palung o parai pongah, kaimah hoi ka tawnh ih hmuennawk boih hae nangcae hinghaih pakhra hanah anghoehaih hoi ka patoh han.
16Even so, I myself didn’t burden you. But you might say that being crafty, I caught you with deception.
16To tiah sak naah doeh, raihaih kang paek o ai: toe thoemto kaminawk mah loe anih mah ang ling, palunghahaih hoiah kaicae ang ling, tiah a thuih o.
17Did I take advantage of you by anyone of those whom I have sent to you?
17Nangcae khaeah ka patoeh ih kaminawk mah ang ling o maw?
18I exhorted Titus, and I sent the brother with him. Did Titus take any advantage of you? Didn’t we walk in the same spirit? Didn’t we walk in the same steps?
18Titu to ka pacae moe, nawkamya maeto hoiah nawnto anih to kang patoeh. Titu mah hmuenmae ang lak pae o maw? Kaicae loe poek anghmonghaih hoiah tok ka sah o ai maw? Kanghmong loklam to ka pazui o ai maw?
19Again, do you think that we are excusing ourselves to you? In the sight of God we speak in Christ. But all things, beloved, are for your edifying.
19To pacoeng bae ah, kaicae loe kaimacae pakahaih lok ni ka thuih o, tiah na poek o maw? Kri ah ka oh o baktih toengah, Sithaw hmaa ah ni lok ka thuih o: toe nawkamyanawk, nangcae qoeng thaih han ih ni, hmuennawk boih hae ka sak o.
20For I am afraid that perhaps when I come, I might find you not the way I want to, and that I might be found by you as you don’t desire, that perhaps there would be strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, factions, slander, whisperings, proud thoughts, or riots,
20Nangcae khae kang zoh naah, ka hnuk koeh ih hmuen to ka hnu mak ai, nangcae mah doeh kai khae hoi hnuk han koeh ih hmuen to na hnu o mak ai ah, lok angaekhaih, uthaih, palungphuihaih, angzoehhaih, kasaethuihaih, pronghaih, amoekhaih hoi lokpunghaihnawk to om lat moeng tih, tiah zithaih ka tawnh:
21that again when I come my God would humble me before you, and I would mourn for many of those who have sinned before now, and not repented of the uncleanness, sexual immorality, and lustfulness which they committed.
21nangcae khae kang zoh let naah, nangcae salakah kaom paroeai kaminawk loe a sak o ih zaehaihnawk to caeh o taak ai moe, ciimcai ai hmuen, tamquta hoi nongpa nongpata zae sakhaih, taksa koehhaih baktiah a sak o ih zaehaihnawk to dawnpakhuem o ai ah, vaihi khoek to a sak o vop pongah, ka Sithaw mah nangcae hma ah azathaih na tongsak ueloe, palung kasae moeng tih.
