1Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints that are in the whole of Achaia:
1Paula, Pathian deihlama Kris Jesu sawltak leh i unaupa Timothi in: Korinth khuaa Pathian saptuam omte kiangah, leh Akhaia gam tengtenga mi siangthou om tengtengte kiang ah:
2Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2Pathian i pa leh Toupa Jesu Kris kianga kipan hehpihna leh lemna na kiang uah om hen.
3Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort;
3I Toupa Jesu Kris Pathian leh Pa, hehpihnate Pa leh khamuanna tengteng Pathian, phatin om hen.
4who comforteth us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort them that are in any affliction, through the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
4Pathianin koumau honkhamuanna ngeiin gimthuakna peuhmaha omte leng ka khamuan sam theihna dingun, aman ka gimthuaknate uah a honkhamuan jel hi.
5For as the sufferings of Christ abound unto us, even so our comfort also aboundeth through Christ.
5Kris thuaknate tampitak ka tan bangun, Kris jiakin khamuanna leng tamsem ka tang uhi.
6But whether we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; or whether we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which worketh in the patient enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer:
6Himahleh, gimthuaka ka om uleh, noumau khamuanna ding leh hotdamna ding ahia; huan, khamuana ka om uleh, ka thuak bang uh na thuak chiangua na theih ua na khamuanna ding uh ahi.
7and our hope for you is stedfast; knowing that, as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so also are ye of the comfort.
7Huan, gimthuakna tang samte na hih bang un, khamuanna tang samte leng na hi uh chih ka theih un, ka hon lamet sakna uh a kip ahi.
8For we would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning our affliction which befell [us] in Asia, that we were weighed down exceedingly, beyond our power, insomuch that we despaired even of life:
8Unaute aw, Asia gama ka tung ua gimthuakna tung na theih louh uh ka deih kei uh, huchia, nakpitaka thuakzoh vual louha, hin himhim leng lamen lou khop hiala delhdena ka om uh.
9yea, we ourselves have had the sentence of death within ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raiseth the dead:
9Ahi, sihna thupukna mutain ka kingai hial uhi; himah leh huai tuh koumau kimuang loua misite kaithoupa Pathian ka muan jawk nading uh ahi;
10who delivered us out of so great a death, and will deliver: on whom we have set our hope that he will also still deliver us;
10Aman huchibang sih lauhuai lakah honhunkhetaa, a honhunkhe nawn ding; a honhunkhe nawn jel ding chih amah tungah kalametna uh ka nga uhi.
11ye also helping together on our behalf by your supplication; that, for the gift bestowed upon us by means of many, thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf.
11Nou leng thumna a non panpih luat ding uh ahi, huchiin tampite thumna dawnna vualjawlna piaka ka om chiangun koute jiakin mi tampiin kipahthu a gen ding uhi.
12For our glorifying is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in holiness and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we behaved ourselves in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.
12Ka suan uh jaw hiai ahi, ka sia leh pha theihna thu uh theihsak, siangthouna leh Pathian dikna neiin, sa pilna ah hi louin, Pathian hehpihna hi jawin khovel ah ka gamta ua, nou lam ah ka gamta hoih nawn sem uhi.
13For we write no other things unto you, than what ye read or even acknowledge, and I hope ye will acknowledge unto the end:
13Na sim theih uleh na theihtheih ding uh lou ngal thu dang himhim na kiang uah ka gelh kei uhi; a tawp phain ka thu uh na theihsiam uh ka lamen lai uhi,
14as also ye did acknowledge us in part, that we are your glorying, even as ye also are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus.
14Theihsiamna tan na neihtak bangun, i Toupa Jesu ni chiangin, noute kon suan theih bangun nouleng koute nonsuang thei sam ding uhi.
15And in this confidence I was minded to come first unto you, that ye might have a second benefit;
15Huan, huai gintakna neiin, na kiang uah hong masa leng ka chi a, kipahna thuahnih na neih theihna ding un,
16and by you to pass into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come unto you, and of you to be set forward on my journey unto Judaea.
16Noumau tawn kawmin Masidonia gamah pai jel leng la, Masidonia gama kipana na kiang uah hongkihei nawn leng la, huan Judia gama ka hohna ding ah noumau khakin om leng, leng ka chi a.
17When I therefore was thus minded, did I show fickleness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be the yea yea and the nay nay?
17Huchiin, huchibang ka ngaihtuah laiin ka lungsim kip louhdan lang sak hia ka hih? Ahihkeileh, Ahi, chih leh, Ahi kei, chi tuaktuak dingin, thil hih ka tup nak pen khovelmi bangin hia ka tup?
18But as God is faithful, our word toward you is not yea and nay.
18Ahihhangin, Pathian a muanhuai bangin, noumau lama ka thu uh tuh, Ahi, chih leh, Ahi kei, chih ahi kei hi.
19For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, [even] by me and Silvanus and Timothy, was not yea and nay, but in him is yea.
19Abang abang hi hen aw, Pathian Tapa Jesu Kris, a thu kei leh Silvana leh Timothiin na lak ua ka gen un, Ahi, leh Ahi kei, a chi tuaktuak kei ngala, amahah jaw thil teng teng Ahi, chih ahi gige hi.
20For how many soever be the promises of God, in him is the yea: wherefore also through him is the Amen, unto the glory of God through us.
20Pathian thu chiamte tengtengin amahah, Ahi, chih a mu vek hi. Huaijiakin ahi Pathian thupina dinga amah jiaka, Amen, ka chih uh.
21Now he that establisheth us with you in Christ, and anointed us, is God;
21Huan, Krisa noumau toh honhihkippa leh kou honsawlpa Pathian ahi;
22who also sealed us, and gave [us] the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
22Amah jaw honchiamtehpa leh, i lungtanga khamna Kha honpepa leng ahi.
23But I call God for a witness upon my soul, that to spare you I forbare to come unto Corinth.
23Himahleh, ka kha tunga theihpih dingin Pathian ka sam ahi, noumau honhawi dingin ahi Korinth khuaa ka hongtak louh jaw.Na ginna uh honthuneih khum hilou-in, na kipahna ding ua nou tawh sem khawm ka hi jaw uhi; ginnaa ding kip na hi ngal ua.
24Not that we have lordship over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for in faith ye stand fast.
24Na ginna uh honthuneih khum hilou-in, na kipahna ding ua nou tawh sem khawm ka hi jaw uhi; ginnaa ding kip na hi ngal ua.
