1But I determined this for myself, that I would not come again to you with sorrow.
1Manglem te na zhav tumende, saxke te na nekezhiv tume pale.
2For if I make you sorry, who then is he that maketh me glad but he that is made sorry by me?
2Ke te nekezhiva tumen, kon sai del man o raduimos? De ferdi kodola kai nekezhisardem le.
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.
3Eta, Sostar ramosardem tumenge kadia, chi mangavas te avav tumende ai te avav nekezhime katar le manush kai trobunas te den ma raduimos, zhanav ke kana sim raduime, vi tume san raduime.
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.
4E ramov tumenge ieke ilesa kai si chinuime ai dukhado, ai bute asuensa, te na nekezhiv tume, numa te zhanen sode de san mange drago.
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.
5Te si vari kon mashkar tumende kai nekezhisailo, chi nekezhisardia ma, numa savorhe tume; vai amborim na savorhe, numa xantsi anda tumende.
6Sufficient to such a one is this punishment which was [inflicted] by the many;
6Dosta sas kodole manusheske kai sas doshardo katar o mai but anda tumende.
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.
7Anda kodia akana trobul mai bini te iertin leske ai te zhutin les, saxke te na perel ande mai baro nekazo ai te rimolpe.
8Wherefore I beseech you to confirm [your] love toward him.
8Akana mangav tumendar, keren lesa vorta te sikaven leske ke tume drago leske.
9For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye are obedient in all things.
9Eta, vi sostar ramosardem tumenge, manglemas te zumavav tume ai te dikhav, keren inker so mothav tumenge.
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;
10Kana iertin vari kaske vari so kai shubisailo, i me iertiv leske. Ke kana iertiva te trobul te iertiv vari so, kerav kodia pala tumende angla Kristo,
11that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
11saxke te na mekav le benges te niril pe amende; ke ame zhanas so mangel te kerel.
12Now when I came to Troas for the gospel of Christ, and when a door was opened unto me in the Lord,
12Kana areslem ando Troas te mothav pai lashi viasta le Kristoski, arakhalem ke O Del phuterdia o drom te dav duma pa leste kotse.
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.
13Numa nas mange mishto ke chi arakhlem amare phrales o Titus. Anda kodia phendem le narodoske kai sas ando Troas te ashen Devlesa, ai gelemtar ande Maacedonia.
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.
14Ame naisisarasle Devles! Kai del ame te nirisaras sagda le Kristosa ande soste godi. O Del kerel amensa buchi te das duma pa Kristo kai godi zhas sar iek duxi, kai laki sung xhal katar godi.
15For we are a sweet savor of Christ unto God, in them that are saved, and in them that perish;
15Ame sam le Devleske e duxi le Kristoski, mashkar kodola kai si skepime, ai mashkar kodola kai xasavon.
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?
16Kodolenge kai xasavon, si iek sung martiaki kai mudarel; ai kodolenge kai si skepime, si iek sung traioski kai del o traio. Ai kon sai kerel kasavatar diela?
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.
17Chi sam sar but aver, kai chinen ai bichinen E Vorba le Devleski; numa ke O Del tradia ame, das duma chachimasa angla leste, sar le slugi le Kristoske.
