¹Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me.

¹Jadi' ompi' -ompi', kuperapi' bona niwai' -a-kuwo loga mpo'une' woto-ku moto kampa' hampai'. Apa' hewa to mengkatiwojo-a tohe'i-e, aga kuperapi' bona mosabara-koi ulu mpo'epe lolita-ku.

²For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

²Moroe-a tohe'i-e mpokaroe pangkeni tetura ria to doko' mpo'ago-koi ngkai aku'. Aga roe-ku tohe'i, roe to ntuku' konoa Alata'ala. Apa' aku' -mi to lomo' -na mpotudui' -koi mepangala' hi Kristus-e. Konoa-ku, bona tida-koi mepangala' hi Kristus. Koi' ma'ala rarapai' -ki toronaa to mokamae' hante hadua kabilasa. Kamae' -ni toe, Kristus.

³But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

³Aga koro' -a toi-e, nee-neo' mpai' ria to mpobagiu-koi alaa-na uma-koi tida mepangala' hi Kristus hante karoli' -roli' nono-ni. Hewa Hawa owi nasori ule hante lolita-na to mo'olu, wae wo'o ria to doko' mposori-koi mpotuku' tudui' to mosisala hante pepangala' -ni hi Kristus.

⁴For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.

⁴Rata tauna hi retu to mpotudui' -koi mpotuku' Yesus, tapi' tudui' -ra uma hibalia hante napa to kitudui' -kokoi. Aga nau' wae, mosabara lau-dakoi mpo'epe tudui' -ra! Goe' lau-dakoi mpotarima inoha' to mosisala hante Inoha' Tomoroli' to mpolia' nitarima-mi! Goe' lau-dakoi mpotarima kareba to mosisala hante Kareba Lompe' to mpolia' nipangala' -mi!

⁵For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles.

⁵Jadi', bangku' suro to mpomobohe hanga' -ra moto tetura ria nipe'epei lolita-ra, kusarumaka bate mosabara wo'o-koi mpe'epei lolita-ku toi, apa' uma-a tepatu'ai ngkai hira'.

⁶But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.

⁶Apa' nau' uma rahi ku'incai mololita, aga bela-a tauna to wojo-e'. Ku'inca tudui' to makono. Ni'epe pai' nihilo moto-mi toe hi butu nyala gau' -kai dohe-ni.

⁷Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?

⁷Nto'u kampokeni-ku Kareba Lompe' hi koi' wengi, uma-koi kupomperapii' gaji' -ku nau' ba hangkedi'. Kupakadingki' tuwu' -ku, mobago-a hante pale-ku moto, bona koi' ompi' tehore ngkai jeko'. Ha kuposala' ompi', uma-a mperapi' gaji' -kue?

⁸I robbed other churches, taking wages of them, to do you service.

⁸Bula-ku hi ngata-ni wengi, to Kristen to hi ngata ntani' -na lau-di to mpakatui-a doi. Ma'ala-mi ta'uli' hira' to morugi, bona ma'ala-a mobago mpokeni Kareba Lompe' hi koi'.

⁹And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and so will I keep myself.

⁹Hangkani ria kakuraa' -ku nto'u toe, aga uma-a merapi' hi koi'. Apa' rata-ra ompi' to ngkai tana' Makedonia mpokeni doi to mpohonoi' kakuraa' -ku. Kujagai lompe' bona uma-a mperapii' -koi nto'u toe, bona neo' mpakasusa' -koi. Pai' bate hewa toe oa' mpai' pobabehi-ku, uma kupomperapii' -koi.

¹⁰As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.

¹⁰Mololita-a hi rehe'i hi rala hanga' Kristus. Hewa kamakono-na to na'uli' Kristus, wae wo'o napa to ku'uli' hi rehe'i bate makono. Bohe nono-ku apa' uma-a mperapi' gaji' hi koi' ba hi hema-hema to hi retu lou hi tana' Akhaya. Kabohe nono-ku toi bate uma kubalii'.

¹¹Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth.

¹¹Napa pai' mololita hewa toe-a? Ha ni'uli' -koina uma-a mpoka'ahi' -koi ompi'? Alata'ala moto mpo'inca kama'ahi' -ku.

¹²But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.

¹²Jadi', napa to kubabehi toi, bate uma kubahakai. Bate uma-a merapi' gaji' hi koi', apa' pangkeni to molangko nono-ra tetura lou ntora mperapi' gaji' -ra pai' ntora mpo'une' woto-ra moto. Aga aku', oja' -a-kuna, bona neo' mpai' ra'uli' pobago-ra hira' hibalia hante pobago-kai kai'.

¹³For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.

¹³Tauna to hewa tetura lou, suro to boa'. Mobago-ra hi laintongo' -ni, ntani' hewa suro Kristus mpu'u-ra, ntaa' topebagiu-radi!

¹⁴And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

¹⁴Aga uma wo'o takehelei kehi-ra toe, apa' Magau' Anudaa' wo'o-hawo mengkatibali' hewa mala'eka to ngkeni kabajaa.

¹⁵Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

¹⁵Jadi' uma wo'o-hawo tapokakonce ane topobago-na Magau' Anudaa' mpowunii' gau' -ra to dada'a, ntani' hewa topobago to mpotuku' konoa Alata'ala. Aga ka'omea-na mpai', bate mporata-ra hiwili to hintotoa hante gau' -ra.

¹⁶I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.

¹⁶Jadi', hewa to ku'uli' we'i, nau' hewa to mengkatiwojo-a toi-e, palogai-a-kuwo ulu mpo'une' woto-ku hampai'. Neo' ba ni'uli' towojo mpu'u-a, aga ane ria mpu'u-koi to mpo'uli' wojo-a, pelele' -ama mpo'une' woto-ku kampa' hampai'.

¹⁷That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.

¹⁷Kututura hawe'ea to ku'une' -ki woto-ku. Aga bela Pue' to mpohubui-a mololita hewa toi. Mololita-a hewa towojo, mpo'une' woto-ku moto toi-e.

¹⁸Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.

¹⁸Gati wori' -di to mpo'une' woto-ra moto pai' mpotutura pobago to rababehi hante karohoa-ra moto-e, wae wo'o-kuwo aku', mpo'une' -a woto-ku.

¹⁹For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise.

¹⁹Apa' hiloa-nale, nipokagoe' moto tauna to wojo, apa' ni'uli' pante-ko-koina!

²⁰For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.

²⁰Ane ria pangkeni to mpobatua-koi, nitarima moto-ra. Ane ria to mpobagiu-koi pai' mpe'ihii-koi, ane ria to mpomolangko nono-ra pai' -ra mpohopo' -koi, nipengkatarii lau-di-koina.

²¹I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly,) I am bold also.

²¹Ha ni'uli' -koina kana me'ea' -a, apa' uma-kai daho' mpotuku' gau' -ra tetura-e? Tapi' ane daho' -ra mpo'une' woto-ra moto, mengkadaho' wo'o-a-kuwo mpo'une' woto-ku. (Kiwoi-e', mololita hewa towojo-a toi-e.)

²²Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.

²²Ra'uli' pangkeni tetura lou, to Yahudi-ra, ra'uli' muli Israel pai' muli Abraham-ra. Wae wo'o-kuwo aku'! To Yahudi-a, muli Israel pai' muli Abraham wo'o-a-kuwo.

²³Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.

²³Ra'uli' -rana, topobago Kristus-ra. Hangkedia' -nami aku', meliu tena-a ngkai hira'! (Mololita-a tohe'i-e, hewa to uma-apa monoto.) Meliu pobago-ku ngkai pobago-ra hira'. Wori' ngkani-a ratarungku', meliu ngkai hira'! Raweba' mperegea-a, meliu ngkai hira'! Wori' ngkani-a neo' mate.

²⁴Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one.

²⁴Lima ngkani-ama rahuku' to Yahudi: raweba' -a tolu mpulu' sio mela.

²⁵Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep;

²⁵Tolu ngkani-a rahuku' to Roma: raweba' -a hante lua'. Hangkani wo'o-a radulu tauna rapana' -a hante watu doko' mpatehi-a. Tolu ngkani kapal to kuhawi' matala hi rala tahi'. Hangkani-a nangko hi lolo tahi' hamengia ha'eoa.

²⁶In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;

²⁶Rala pomakoa' -ku wori' ngkani-a mporata silaka. Ria ue mowo'. Ria toperampaki. Rabalinai' to Yahudi-a. Rabalinai' -a to bela-ra to Yahudi. Mporata-a silaka hi rala ngata. Mporata-a silaka hi mali ngata. Mporata-a silaka hi lolo tahi'. Mporata-a silaka ngkai tauna to mpo'uli' ompi' hampepangalaa' -ku moto-ra, ntaa' bela-di!

²⁷In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.

²⁷Hi rala pobago to kupobago-ki Pue', mobago huduwuku-ku pai' mobago hudu pakulea' -ku. Wori' ngkani uma-a tepoleta', uma-a teponginu, uma-a tepongkoni'. Wori' ngkani-a mo'oro', molengi' pai' uma hono' pohea-ku.

²⁸Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches.

²⁸Ntani' -na ngkai hawe'ea toe, motomo wo'o kinolo-ku butu eo-na, mpopekiri to Kristen hi butu ngata.

²⁹Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not?

²⁹Ane ria ompi' hampepangalaa' -ku to susa' apa' lente pepangala' -ra, susa' wo'o-kuwo nono-ku. Ane ria to monawu' hi rala jeko', peda' wo'o-kuwo nono-ku.

³⁰If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities.

³⁰Ane kana mpo'une' -a woto-ku, ku'une' woto-ku mpotutura hawe'ea kalentea-ku.

³¹The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not.

³¹Hawe'ea to ku'uli' -e we'i, makono omea, uma-a boa'. Alata'ala Tuama-na Pue' Yesus sabi' -ku! Une' -imi duu' kahae-hae-na!

³²In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king kept the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desirous to apprehend me:

³²Nto'u-ku hi ngata Damsyik, gubernur to hi une' Raja Aretas doko' mpopatehi-a. Nahubui tantara-na mpojaga wobo' ngata bona ma'ala-a rahoko'.

³³And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and escaped his hands.

³³Aga doo-ku mpotulungi-a. Ra'ulu-a hi rala karanci ntara hameha' wulou' wala, pai' -a tebahaka.
