1Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
1 Yaadin gaa, ay baakoy, za kaŋ iri gonda alkawley din, wa naŋ iri m'iri boŋ hanandi gaaham ziibo nda biya ziibo kulu gaa, k'iri hananyaŋo toonandi Irikoy humburkumay ra.
2Receive us; we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have defrauded no man.
2 W'araŋ biney feeri iri se. Iri mana boro kulu zamba, iri mana boro kulu halaci, iri mana boro kulu ŋwa.
3I speak not this to condemn you: for I have said before, that ye are in our hearts to die and live with you.
3 Ay siino ga woodin ci zama ay m'araŋ ciiti ka zeeri se bo, zama ay jin ka ne araŋ go iri biney ra, hal iri go care banda, da buuyaŋ se no wala fundi se no.
4Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my glorying of you: I am filled with comfort, I am exceeding joyful in all our tribulation.
4 Ay ga naanay araŋ gaa gumo, ay ga farhã araŋ sabbay se mo gumo-gumo. Ay to da bine-gaabi. Iri kankami kulu ra ay bina to da farhã hal a ga mun.
5For, when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without were fightings, within were fears.
5 Zama baa waato kaŋ iri kaa Masidoniya, iri fundey mana fulanzam baa kayna. Kambu kulu gaa iri du kankami. Kakawyaŋ go taray, bina ra mo humburkumay.
6Nevertheless God, that comforteth those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus;
6 Kulu nda yaadin, Irikoy kaŋ ga bine-gaabi no bine gazantekoy se n'iri biney gaabandi Titos kaayaŋo sabbay se.
7And not by his coming only, but by the consolation wherewith he was comforted in you, when he told us your earnest desire, your mourning, your fervent mind toward me; so that I rejoiced the more.
7 Manti a kaayaŋo hinne se bo, amma da bine-gaabi kaŋ a kande iri gaa araŋ ciine ra. A dede iri se mate kaŋ cine araŋ faajo, d'araŋ bine sara, d'araŋ anniya mo go d'a ay se, hal ay farhã gumo ka tonton.
8For though I made you sorry with a letter, I do not repent, though I did repent: for I perceive that the same epistle hath made you sorry, though it were but for a season.
8 Zama baa kaŋ ay n'araŋ biney sara nd'ay tira, a mana kokor k'ay di. Baa d'a kokor k'ay di mo (zama ay di tira din n'araŋ biney sara baa kaŋ alwaati kayna fo ra),
9Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.
9 kulu nda yaadin sohõ ay go ga farhã. Manti zama araŋ biney sara se bo, amma zama araŋ bine sara to d'araŋ tuubi gaa. Bine saray kaŋ Irikoy ga ba no te araŋ se, hala hay kulu ra araŋ ma si du mursay kaŋ fun iri do.
10For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
10 Bine sara kaŋ dumi Irikoy ga ba no ga tuubi goy te hal a ma koy to faaba do. Tuubi mo no kaŋ boro si tunandi. Amma ndunnya bine saray ga kande buuyaŋ.
11For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.
11 Zama guna haŋ kaŋ araŋ biney sara wo, kaŋ Irikoy ba, te: guna kookari kaŋ araŋ cabe, guna araŋ boŋ hanandiyaŋ! Oho, guna dukuri, da humburkumay, da faaji, da anniya, da cimi-kayandiyaŋ kaŋ yaŋ dumi araŋ te! Hay kulu ra araŋ cabe kaŋ araŋ ga hanan sanno wo ra.
12Wherefore, though I wrote unto you, I did it not for his cause that had done the wrong, nor for his cause that suffered wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear unto you.
12 Yaadin gaa, baa kaŋ ay hantum araŋ se, ay mana hantum bora kaŋ na taalo din te sabbay se, wala mo bora kaŋ se a na taalo din te, amma zama araŋ kookaro kaŋ araŋ te iri se ma bangay araŋ se Irikoy jine.
13Therefore we were comforted in your comfort: yea, and exceedingly the more joyed we for the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all.
13 Woodin sabbay se no iri du bine-gaabi. Iri bine-gaabo ra mo iri farhã ka tonton Titos farhãyaŋo sabbay se, zama araŋ kulu n'a bina yeenandi.
14For if I have boasted any thing to him of you, I am not ashamed; but as we spake all things to you in truth, even so our boasting, which I made before Titus, is found a truth.
14 Zama d'ay fooma d'araŋ kayna a jine, ay mana haaw. Mate kaŋ cine ay na hay kulu ci araŋ se da cimi, yaadin mo no fooma kaŋ iri te Titos jine binde ciya cimi.
15And his inward affection is more abundant toward you, whilst he remembereth the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.
15 A bine baakasina mo go ga baa ka tonton araŋ se waati kaŋ a ga fongu d'araŋ ganayaŋo, da mate kaŋ araŋ n'a ta nda humburkumay da jijiriyaŋ.
16I rejoice therefore that I have confidence in you in all things.
16 Ay ga farhã zama hay kulu ra ay ga hin ka naanay araŋ gaa.
