¹This third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every matter be established.

¹Pe trito data mai avav tumende. "Ai swako diela lashardiola angla dui vai trin marturia," sar si ramome ande Vorba le Devleske.

²I have declared beforehand, and I say beforehand as present the second time, and now absent, to those that have sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again I will not spare.

²Si ma vari so te mothav kodolenge kai kerde bezex mai anglal, ai vi le kolavrenge; phendemas tumenge kadia diela kana avilemas tumende pe duito data, numa mai mothav akana kai chi sim tumensa: kana mai zhava tumende te dikhav tume chi avava lasho kanikasa.

³Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, (who is not weak towards you, but is powerful among you,

³Tume roden te dikhen ke O Kristo del duma ande mande. Wo kai nai kovlo karing tumende, numa kai si la putierasa ande tumende.

⁴for if indeed he has been crucified in weakness, yet he lives by God's power; for indeed *we* are weak in him, but we shall live with him by God's power towards you,)

⁴Ke sas karfome po trushul pala pesko kovlimos, numa wo traiil palai putiera le Devleski. Iame sam kovle ande leste, numa traiisaras lesa katar e putiera le Devleski, te kerel buchi karing tumende.

⁵examine your own selves if ye be in the faith; prove your own selves: do ye not recognise yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you, unless indeed ye be reprobates?

⁵Tume zumaven tumen ai len sama pe tumende, ta dikhen traiin ando pachamos. Tume preznain ke O Kristo traiil ande tume? Vai amborim ke nashtim te sikaven ke pachan tume.

⁶Now I hope that ye will know that *we* are not reprobates.

⁶Pachav ma ke preznaina ke chi sam kodolendar kai nashti sihavas ke pachas ame.

⁷But we pray to God that ye may do nothing evil; not that *we* may appear approved, but that *ye* may do what is right, and *we* be as reprobates.

⁷Me rhugiv ma ka Del te na keren nasulimos, ame mangas na te siavas kotsar so ame nashtis te keras, numa te dikhas tumen sar keren so si vorta, marka ke ame miazol ke nashtisaras.

⁸For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.

⁸Ke ame nashti keras kanchi karing o chachimos le Devlesko, de ferdi te keras o chachimos.

⁹For we rejoice when *we* may be weak and *ye* may be powerful. But this also we pray for, your perfecting.

⁹Ame raduisavas kana sam kovle numa tume zurale san. Ai ame mangas ande amaro rhugimos te kerdion vorta.

¹⁰On this account I write these things being absent, that being present I may not use severity according to the authority which the Lord has given me for building up, and not for overthrowing.

¹⁰Eta, sostar ramov tumenge kadia kai sim dur tumendar; saxke kana avela e vriama te avav tumende te na kerav tumensa zurales, ai te kerav la putierasa kai O Del dia ma e putiera, kai si te kerel tume te barion ando pachamos, ai na te rimon tume.

¹¹For the rest, brethren, rejoice; be perfected; be encouraged; be of one mind; be at peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

¹¹Ai akana, murhe phral, ashen Devlesa! Roden te aven vorta; den zor iek kavres; keren buchi andek than; traiin ande pacha, ai O Del le dragostiamasko ai la pachako avela tumensa.

¹²Salute one another with a holy kiss.

¹²Roden ta dikhen iek kavres ai chumiden tumen sar phral.

¹³All the saints salute you.

¹³Sa o narodo le Devlesko tradel tumenge bax, zor, ai sastimos.

¹⁴The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit, [be] with you all.

¹⁴O mishtimos le Devlesko O Jesus Kristo, ai e dragostia le Devleski, ai andek than O Swunto Duxo te aven tumensa savorhensa.
