¹Ihi, ur ilaq ara a nefcel imi s Ṛṛeḥma n Sidi Ṛebbi i ɣ-d ițțunefk leqdic-agi ɣef Lmasiḥ.

¹Therefore, having this ministry, as we have had mercy shewn us, we faint not.

²Ur neqbil ara ayen yellan d lɛib d wayen yețwaxedmen s tuffra, ur nteddu s tḥila, ur nețḥerrif awal n Ṛebbi. Meɛna nețbeggin-ed awal n Sidi Ṛebbi s tideț, iwakken imdanen meṛṛa ad slen i wawal n Ṛebbi, a t-fehmen akken yella.

²But we have rejected the hidden things of shame, not walking in deceit, nor falsifying the word of God, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every conscience of men before God.

³Ma mazal lexbaṛ n lxiṛ i wen nbecceṛ ur ițwafhem ara, lmeɛna-ines tețwaffer kan ɣef wid iḍaɛen,

³But if also our gospel is veiled, it is veiled in those that are lost;

⁴ur numin ara s Ṛebbi ; axaṭer Cciṭan yerran iman is d ṛebbi n ddunit-agi , yesderɣel ixemmimen nsen, daymi ur walan ara tafat yellan di lexbaṛ n lxiṛ yeɛnan tamanegt n Lmasiḥ, nețța yellan d ṣṣifa n Sidi Ṛebbi.

⁴in whom the god of this world has blinded the thoughts of the unbelieving, so that the radiancy of the glad tidings of the glory of the Christ, who is [the] image of God, should not shine forth [for them].

⁵Axaṭer mačči ɣef yiman-nneɣ i nețbecciṛ, lameɛna nețbecciṛ ɣef Ɛisa Lmasiḥ Ssid-nneɣ ; ma d nukni, nuɣal d iqeddacen-nwen ɣef ddemma n Sidna Ɛisa.

⁵For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus Lord, and ourselves your bondmen for Jesus' sake.

⁶Ṛebbi i d-yennan : Tafat aț-țecceɛceɛ di ṭṭlam, d nețța daɣen i d-ifkan tafat tfeǧǧeǧ deg ulawen-nneɣ iwakken a ɣ-d ibeggen tamanegt-is yețfeǧǧiǧen ɣef wudem n Lmasiḥ.

⁶Because [it is] the God who spoke that out of darkness light should shine who has shone in our hearts for the shining forth of the knowledge of the glory of God in [the] face of [Jesus] Christ.

⁷Nukni yețțawin deg iman-nneɣ agerruj-agi, necba ticmuxin n wakal, iwakken tazmert-agi tameqqrant a d-tban belli tusa-d s ɣuṛ Sidi Ṛebbi mačči s ɣuṛ-nneɣ.

⁷But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the surpassingness of the power may be of God, and not from us:

⁸Nețwaḥṛes si mkul tama meɛna ur nefcil ara ; nella di teswiɛt n ṭṭiq meɛna ur neɣli ara ;

⁸every way afflicted, but not straitened; seeing no apparent issue, but our way not entirely shut up;

⁹nețwaqheṛ meɛna Sidi Ṛebbi ur aɣ-yeǧǧi ara ; nețwarkeḍ meɛna ur aɣ-nɣin ara.

⁹persecuted, but not abandoned; cast down, but not destroyed;

¹⁰Nețțawi daymen di lǧețțat-nneɣ lmut n Sidna Ɛisa iwakken a d-tban daɣen deg-nneɣ tudert-is.

¹⁰always bearing about in the body the dying of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our body;

¹¹Nukni yeddren, nețqabal daymen lmut ɣef ddemma n Sidna Ɛisa, iwakken a d-tban tudert n Sidna Ɛisa di lǧețțat nneɣ ifennun.

¹¹for we who live are always delivered unto death on account of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal flesh;

¹²S wakka lmut txeddem deg-nneɣ, ma ț-țudert txeddem deg-wen.

¹²so that death works in us, but life in you.

¹³Am akken yura di tira iqedsen : umneɣ, daymi i d-hedṛeɣ ; nukni daɣen nesɛa liman-agi, daymi i d nheddeṛ.

¹³And having the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, I have believed, therefore have I spoken; *we* also believe, therefore also we speak;

¹⁴Axaṭer neẓra belli Sidi Ṛebbi i d-isseḥyan Sidna Ɛisa si ger lmegtin, a ɣ-d-isseḥyu ula d nukni akk-d Sidna Ɛisa, iwakken a ɣ issemlil yid-wen m'ara nuɣal ɣuṛ-es.

¹⁴knowing that he who has raised the Lord Jesus shall raise us also with Jesus, and shall present [us] with you.

¹⁵Ayen akk ideṛṛun yid-nneɣ, ideṛṛu ɣef ddemma-nwen, iwakken ṛṛeḥma n Sidi Ṛebbi aț-țaweḍ ɣer waṭas n yemdanen ; s wakka aṭas ara iketṛen di leḥmada n Sidi Ṛebbi, a t-cekkṛen ɣef tmanegt-is.

¹⁵For all things [are] for your sakes, that the grace abounding through the many may cause thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God.

¹⁶Daymi ur ilaq ara a nefcel ; axaṭer ɣas akken lǧețța-nneɣ tfennu seg wass ɣer wayeḍ, ṛṛuḥ yellan deg-nneɣ yețnerni seg wass ɣer wayeḍ.

¹⁶Wherefore we faint not; but if indeed our outward man is consumed, yet the inward is renewed day by day.

¹⁷Leɛtab-agi i nesɛedday tura xfif yerna ur ițdum ara ; ițheggi-yaɣ-ed tamanegt tameqqrant ur nfennu.

¹⁷For our momentary [and] light affliction works for us in surpassing measure an eternal weight of glory;

¹⁸Axaṭer nukni ur nețnadi ara ɣef wayen țwalint wallen, lameɛna nețnadi ɣef leḥwayeǧ ur țwalint ara ; axaṭer leḥwayeǧ i țwalint wallen fennunt, ma d ayen ur țwalint ara, yețdumu i dayem.

¹⁸while we look not at the things that are seen, but at the things that are not seen; for the things that are seen [are] for a time, but those that are not seen eternal.
