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:

¹Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the assembly of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in the whole of Achaia:

²Pathian i pa leh Toupa Jesu Kris kianga kipan hehpihna leh lemna na kiang uah om hen.

²Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

³I Toupa Jesu Kris Pathian leh Pa, hehpihnate Pa leh khamuanna tengteng Pathian, phatin om hen.

³Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort;

⁴Pathianin koumau honkhamuanna ngeiin gimthuakna peuhmaha omte leng ka khamuan sam theihna dingun, aman ka gimthuaknate uah a honkhamuan jel hi.

⁴who comforts us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

⁵Kris thuaknate tampitak ka tan bangun, Kris jiakin khamuanna leng tamsem ka tang uhi.

⁵For as the sufferings of Christ abound to us, even so our comfort also abounds through Christ.

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.

⁶But if we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation. If we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you the patient enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer.

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.

⁷Our hope for you is steadfast, knowing that, since you are partakers of the sufferings, so also are you of the comfort.

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.

⁸For we don’t desire to have you uninformed, brothers, The word for “brothers” here and where context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” concerning our affliction which happened to us in Asia, that we were weighed down exceedingly, beyond our power, so much that we despaired even of life.

⁹Ahi, sihna thupukna mutain ka kingai hial uhi; himah leh huai tuh koumau kimuang loua misite kaithoupa Pathian ka muan jawk nading uh ahi;

⁹Yes, we ourselves have had the sentence of death within ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead,

¹⁰Aman huchibang sih lauhuai lakah honhunkhetaa, a honhunkhe nawn ding; a honhunkhe nawn jel ding chih amah tungah kalametna uh ka nga uhi.

¹⁰who delivered us out of so great a death, and does deliver; on whom we have set our hope that he will also still deliver us;

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.

¹¹you also helping together on our behalf by your supplication; that, for the gift bestowed on us by means of many, thanks may be given by many persons on your behalf.

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.

¹²For our boasting 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 toward you.

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,

¹³For we write no other things to you, than what you read or even acknowledge, and I hope you will acknowledge to the end;

¹⁴Theihsiamna tan na neihtak bangun, i Toupa Jesu ni chiangin, noute kon suan theih bangun nouleng koute nonsuang thei sam ding uhi.

¹⁴as also you acknowledged us in part, that we are your boasting, even as you also are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus.

¹⁵Huan, huai gintakna neiin, na kiang uah hong masa leng ka chi a, kipahna thuahnih na neih theihna ding un,

¹⁵In this confidence, I was determined to come first to you, that you might have a second benefit;

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.

¹⁶and by you to pass into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and to be sent forward by you on my journey to Judea.

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?

¹⁷When I therefore was thus determined, did I show fickleness? Or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be the “Yes, yes” and the “No, no?”

¹⁸Ahihhangin, Pathian a muanhuai bangin, noumau lama ka thu uh tuh, Ahi, chih leh, Ahi kei, chih ahi kei hi.

¹⁸But as God is faithful, our word toward you was not “Yes and no.”

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.

¹⁹For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, by me, Silvanus, and Timothy, was not “Yes and no,” but in him is “Yes.”

²⁰Pathian thu chiamte tengtengin amahah, Ahi, chih a mu vek hi. Huaijiakin ahi Pathian thupina dinga amah jiaka, Amen, ka chih uh.

²⁰For however many are the promises of God, in him is the “Yes.” Therefore also through him is the “Amen,” to the glory of God through us.

²¹Huan, Krisa noumau toh honhihkippa leh kou honsawlpa Pathian ahi;

²¹Now he who establishes us with you in Christ, and anointed us, is God;

²²Amah jaw honchiamtehpa leh, i lungtanga khamna Kha honpepa leng ahi.

²²who also sealed us, and gave us the down payment of the Spirit in our hearts.

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.

²³But I call God for a witness to my soul, that I didn’t come to Corinth to spare you.

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.

²⁴Not that we have lordship over your faith, but are fellow workers with you for your joy. For you stand firm in faith.
