1But I determined this for myself, that I would not come again to you with sorrow.
1Himahleh, keimah lam thu ah jaw hiai ka natum chiltelta ahi, lungkham nadia na kiang ua hong nawnta lou dingin.
2For if I make you sorry, who then is he that maketh me glad but he that is made sorry by me?
2Ken ka honhihlungkham leh, ka hihlungkhampen mah louin kuana hia kei honhih kipak ding leh?
3And I wrote this very thing, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is [the joy] of you all.
3Huchiin, huai mahmah ka gelh ahi, huchilou injaw, ka hongin ka kipahna dingte lakah lungkhamna ka mu zo kha dinga; ka kipahna jaw na vek ua kipahna ahih ka hon gintak sak chiat ngala.
4For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be made sorry, but that ye might know the love that I have more abundantly unto you.
4Khitui tampi ke kawmin, lungtang haksa leh lauthawng pipia ka gelh ahi; huai tuh hihlungkhama na omna ding uh ahi keia, na tung ua itna thupi zosem ka nei chih na theih jawkna ding uh ahi.
5But if any hath caused sorrow, he hath caused sorrow, not to me, but in part (that I press not too heavily) to you all.
5Himahleh, kuapeuhin mite ahih lungkham leh, keimah kia honhihlungkham ahi kei a, (ka hih luat louhna dingin) na vek un a honhihlungkham phet chiat ahi jaw hi.
6Sufficient to such a one is this punishment which was [inflicted] by the many;
6Huchibang mi adin tampiin a gawt uh a kihunta ahi.
7so that contrariwise ye should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his overmuch sorrow.
7Huchiin na ngaidam un na khamuan zota ding uh ahi, huchilouinjaw bangchichi hiamin mi huchibang a lungkham luatnain a valh zou kha ding.
8Wherefore I beseech you to confirm [your] love toward him.
8Huchi a hih jiakin amah lama na itna uh hihkip dingin ka honngen ahi.
9For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye are obedient in all things.
9Hiai jiak mahin leng ka gelh ahi, bangpeuhmah thu na man uleh, na man louh uh theihchetna dingin.
10But to whom ye forgive anything, I [forgive] also: for what I also have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, for your sakes [have I forgiven it] in the presence of Christ;
10Banglam peuha mi na ngaihdam uh, ken leng ka ngaidam sama; ken leng ka ngaihdam khitsa jaw, bangpeuh ka na ngaihdam tak leh, noumau jiakin Kris maah ka ngaidam ta ahi.
11that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
11Huchilou injaw setanin nuamtak honsa khading ahi; a tup lah i haih ngal kei ua.
12Now when I came to Troas for the gospel of Christ, and when a door was opened unto me in the Lord,
12Huan, Kris Tanchin Hoih gen dinga Troas khua ka tun in, Toupaa kongkhak honsakin ka oma;
13I had no relief for my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went forth into Macedonia.
13Himahleh ka unaupa Tita ka muh louh jiakin ka kha lam ah jaw muanna himhim ka nei tuan kei a, huchiin, amaute kam phain ka khena, ka pawta, Masidonia gamah ka paita hi.
14But thanks be unto God, who always leadeth us in triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest through us the savor of his knowledge in every place.
14Himahleh, Kris vualzohnaa honpi jelpa leh, koutea mun chiha amah theihna gimnamtui theisakpa Pathian kiangah kipahthu om hen.
15For we are a sweet savor of Christ unto God, in them that are saved, and in them that perish;
15Hotdam lelteah leh mangthang lelteah Pathian adin Kris gimnamtui ka hi ngal ua;
16to the one a savor from death unto death; to the other a savor from life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?
16Pawl khat te adin sihna lakah sihna ding gimnam ka na hi ua, pawl khatte din hinna laka hinna ding gimnam ka na hi uh. Hiai bangte adin kua ahia ching zou ding?Mi tampiin Pathian thu jaw mite khema sumsinnaa a zat bang un jaw kou ka zang ngal kei ua; chihtak ngial jawin, Pathian sawl hijawin, Pathian mitmuhin Kris ah thu ka gen jel uhi.
17For we are not as the many, corrupting the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, speak we in Christ.
17Mi tampiin Pathian thu jaw mite khema sumsinnaa a zat bang un jaw kou ka zang ngal kei ua; chihtak ngial jawin, Pathian sawl hijawin, Pathian mitmuhin Kris ah thu ka gen jel uhi.
