¹So znachil kado divano? Ke pale ame nachinaisavas te luvudisavas? Vai trobulsardino ame, sar uni, te sikavas tumenge lila so te keren, vai ame te mangas tumendar lela?

¹Are we beginning again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, as do some, letters of commendation to you or from you?

²Tuma san amaro lil kai si ramome ande amaro ilo, kai sa e lumia sai zhanel ai diinel.

²You are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all men;

³Te iazno si ke tume san iek lil ramome katar O Kristo ai tradino amendar. Kodo lil nai ramome chernilasa, numa le Duxosa le Devlesko o zhuvindo. Nai ramome pel skafidia baxrenge, numa ande ile le manushenge.

³being revealed that you are a letter of Christ, served by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tablets of stone, but in tablets that are hearts of flesh.

⁴Ame sai mothas chachimasa kadia diela, ke pala amaro pachamos kai si ame ando Del katar O Kristo.

⁴Such confidence we have through Christ toward God;

⁵Ame nashtisaras te mothas ke sai keras kasaviatar buchi anda amende, numa so keras katar O Del avel.

⁵not that we are sufficient of ourselves, to account anything as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God;

⁶Ke wo dia ame te avas slugi kadale nevia viastako; nai iek zakono kai si ramome, numa katar O Swunto Duxo: o zakono o ramome mudarel, numa O Swunto Duxo del o traio.

⁶who also made us sufficient as servants of a new covenant; not of the letter, but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

⁷O zakono sas ramome, vorba pe vorbate pel skafidia le baxrenge ai andai martia, ai o barimos le Devlesko strefial, antunchi o mui le Mosesosko strefialas kadia de zurales kai le Zhiduvuria nashtinas te dikhen pe leste, marka ke kodo strefaimos sas te zhaltar.

⁷But if the service of death, written engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look steadfastly on the face of Moses for the glory of his face; which was passing away:

⁸Sode de baro trobul te avel o luvudimos la buchako kai kerel O Swunto Duxo!

⁸won’t service of the Spirit be with much more glory?

⁹E buchi kai doshardia le manushen sas luvudime, sode mai but luvudime e buchi kai si te kerel andel manush vorta angla Del!

⁹For if the service of condemnation has glory, the service of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.

¹⁰Sai vi mothas, ke o luvudimos kai strefial mai anglal, nai kanchi angla luvudimos kai si akana, kai si but mai baro.

¹⁰For most certainly that which has been made glorious has not been made glorious in this respect, by reason of the glory that surpasses.

¹¹So sas kai ankerdia xantsi vriama sas luvudime, sode mai but luvudime so si kai shoxar chi getolpe!

¹¹For if that which passes away was with glory, much more that which remains is in glory.

¹²Te si ame kodo pachamos, sai das duma bi darako.

¹²Having therefore such a hope, we use great boldness of speech,

¹³Ame chi sam sar o Moses, kai vusharavelas pesko mui seliasa, saxke te na dikhen le Zhiduvuria e vediara kai nakhelas sigo.

¹³and not as Moses, who put a veil on his face, that the children of Israel wouldn’t look steadfastly on the end of that which was passing away.

¹⁴Numa lenge goji nashti ma haliarel, ai zhi adies lenge goji vusharadila sa kodola seliasa kana jinen o zakono le Mosesosko. Kodia selia zhaltar ferdi kana o manush si astardo le Kristosa.

¹⁴But their minds were hardened, for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains, because in Christ it passes away.

¹⁵Inker adies, swako data kai jinen o zakono le Mosesosko, e selia vusharavel lenge goji.

¹⁵But to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart.

¹⁶Numa sar mothol E Vorba le Devleski, kana boldelpe iek manush karing O Del, e selia zhaltar.

¹⁶But whenever one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.

¹⁷O Del si O Swunto Duxo, ai kotse kai si O Swunto Duxo le Devlesko, kotse si liberte.

¹⁷Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

¹⁸Ame savorhe, bi la seliako pe amaro mui strefialas o barimos le Devlesko, ai sam parhude te avas sar O Del, ai nakhas andak barimos ande iek mai baro barimos. Kadia si e buchi kai kerel O Swunto Duxo le Devlesko.

¹⁸But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord, the Spirit.
