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:
1Nekk Bulus amceggeɛ n Sidna Ɛisa Lmasiḥ s lebɣi n Sidi Ṛebbi, akk-d gma-tneɣ Timuti, i watmaten n tejmaɛt n Sidi Ṛebbi yellan di temdint n Kurintus akk-d wid meṛṛa i gextaṛ Sidi Ṛebbi di mkul amkan n tmurt n Akaya.
2Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2Ṛṛeḥma ț-țalwit a wen-d țțunefkent s ɣuṛ Sidi Ṛebbi Baba tneɣ akk-d Sidna Ɛisa Lmasiḥ.
3Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort;
3Ad ițțubarek Sidi Ṛebbi, Baba-s n Ssid-nneɣ Ɛisa Lmasiḥ yellan di yal taswiɛt d Bab n leḥnana d ṣṣbeṛ.
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.
4Ițṣebbiṛ-aɣ di lemḥayen-nneɣ iwakken s ṣṣbeṛ i ɣ-d-ifka, a nizmir ula d nukni a nṣebbeṛ wid yellan di lemḥayen.
5For as the sufferings of Christ abound to us, even so our comfort also abounds through Christ.
5Axaṭer am akken i d-țeɣlayent fell-aɣ lemḥayen ɣef ddemma n Lmasiḥ, akken daɣen i ɣ-d-ițțas ṣṣbeṛ s ɣuṛ-es.
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.
6Nukni ma nenɛețțab di lmeḥnat, nțenɛețțab iwakken aț-țețțusebbṛem yerna aț-țețțuselkem. Ma nețțuṣebbeṛ nukni, aț-țețțuṣebbṛem ula d kunwi iwakken aț-țesɛum ṣṣbeṛ di lemḥayen i deg tețɛeddayem am nukni.
7Our hope for you is steadfast, knowing that, since you are partakers of the sufferings, so also are you of the comfort.
7Ihi ɣef wayen i kkun-yeɛnan nețkel, nekkes anezgum, axaṭer neẓra akken i tețțekkim di lemḥayen-nneɣ, ara tețțekkim daɣen di ṣṣbeṛ i ɣ-d ițțunefken.
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.
8Nebɣa aț-țeẓrem ay atmaten lmeḥna i nesɛedda di tmurt n Asya; ɣlint-ed fell-aɣ lemḥayen iwumi ur nezmir, neɛteb armi nɣil a nemmet.
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,
9Nețwali deg iman-nneɣ belli ḥekmen fell-aɣ s lmut, iwakken ur nețkal ara ɣef yiman-nneɣ lameɛna a nețkel ɣef Ṛebbi i d-iḥeggun lmegtin.
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;
10D nețța i ɣ-d-isellken si lmut am tagi yerna nețkel belli mazal a ɣ-isellek sya ɣer zdat.
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.
11Ula d kunwi tețɛawanem-aɣ m'ara tdeɛɛum ɣer Sidi Ṛebbi fell-aɣ. S wakka, ɣef ddemma n tẓallit n waṭas n watmaten, a ɣ-d-țțunefkent lbaṛakat s ɣuṛ Sidi Ṛebbi ; imiren aṭas ara iḥemden Sidi Ṛebbi ɣef ddemma nneɣ.
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.
12Ațah sebba s wayes i nefṛeḥ s yiman-nneɣ yerna ulawen-nneɣ thennan : nelḥa d yemdanen meṛṛa s wul yeṣfan d neyya, abeɛda yid wen kunwi. Ayagi yusa-yaɣ-d s ɣuṛ Ṛebbi, axaṭer mačči s lɛeqliya n yemdanen i nțeddu meɛna d ṛṛeḥma n Sidi Ṛebbi i ɣ-ițwellihen.
13For we write no other things to you, than what you read or even acknowledge, and I hope you will acknowledge to the end;
13 Ayen i wen-nura di tebṛatin- nneɣ, nenna-t-id s wul yeṣfan d neyya, ulac deg-sent lmeɛna nniḍen anagar ayen i teɣṛam d wayen i tfehmem deg-sent. Ssarameɣ aț-țfehmem ayagi akken ilaq am akken i tebdam tfehmem-t, yeɛni ass n tuɣalin n Ssid-nneɣ Ɛisa Lmasiḥ a nili d sebba n lfeṛḥ-nwen, kunwi aț-țilim d sebba n lfeṛḥ-nneɣ.
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.
15Imi tḥeqqeqeɣ belli akka i gella lḥal, ssarmeɣ a n-ɛeddiɣ di tazwara ɣuṛ-wen iwakken aț-țfeṛḥem snat n tikkal.
15In this confidence, I was determined to come first to you, that you might have a second benefit;
16Qesdeɣ ad ɛeddiɣ fell-awen m'ara ṛuḥeɣ ɣer tmurt n Masidunya, syinna a d-uɣaleɣ ɣuṛ-wen iwakken a yi-tɛiwnem ad kemmleɣ abrid-iw ɣer tmurt n Yahuda.
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.
17Mi qesdeɣ ad xedmeɣ annect-agi, eɛni ur xemmemeɣ ara ? Neɣ m'ara qesdeɣ ad xedmeɣ kra, ma nniɣ-ed anɛam neɣ ala uɣaleɣ beddleɣ ṛṛay, eɛni d lebɣi-inu i țnadiɣ ?
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?”
18Ṛebbi yeẓra belli ayen i wen-d-neqqaṛ mačči d anɛam akk-d ala ɣef yiwet n tikkelt ;
18But as God is faithful, our word toward you was not “Yes and no.”
19axaṭer Ɛisa Lmasiḥ Mmi-s n Ṛebbi i nbecceṛ gar-awen nekk d watmaten Silwan akk-d Timuti, ur d-yusi ara iwakken ad yili d anɛam akk-d ala, meɛna anagar anɛam i gellan deg-s.
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.”
20Axaṭer yis i d-iqqaṛ Sidi Ṛebbi anɛam i wayen meṛṛa i gewɛed. Ihi s yisem n Ɛisa Lmasiḥ i d-neqqaṛ daɣen amin i Sidi Ṛebbi iwakken a t-neḥmed a t-ncekkeṛ.
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.
21D Sidi Ṛebbi s yiman-is i ɣ isǧehden yid-wen di tikli-nneɣ akk-d Lmasiḥ, d nețța i ɣ-ixtaṛen.
21Now he who establishes us with you in Christ, and anointed us, is God;
22Yessers fell-aɣ ṭṭabeɛ-ines yerna yefka-yaɣ-d deg ulawen-nneɣ Ṛṛuḥ-is iqedsen yellan d aɛeṛbun n lbaṛakat i ɣ-iwɛed.
22who also sealed us, and gave us the down payment of the Spirit in our hearts.
23Atan Sidi Ṛebbi yeẓra belli ț-țideț i d-qqaṛeɣ : mi qesdeɣ ur țțuɣaleɣ ara ɣer temdint n Kurintus, d aḥader i bɣiɣ a kkun-ḥadreɣ.
23But I call God for a witness to my soul, that I didn’t come to Corinth to spare you.
24Ur nețnadi ara a wen-d-nesken ayen s wayes ara tamnem axaṭer neẓra tǧehdem di liman, lameɛna nebɣa a nexdem yid-wen iwakken a ndukkel di lfeṛḥ.
24Not that we have lordship over your faith, but are fellow workers with you for your joy. For you stand firm in faith.
