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:

¹Katar o Pavlo, ek apostle le Jesus Kristoske katar e voia le Devleski, ai amaro phral o Timote kai khangeri le Devleski kai si ando Corinth, ai sa le shave le Devleske kai si ande sa e Gretsia.

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

²O mishtimos ai e pacha katar O Del amaro Dat, ai katar le Devles O Jesus Kristo.

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

³Raduime te avel O Del, O Dat amare Devlesko O Jesus Kristo, O Dat kai si pherdi mila, ai O Del kai pechil/zhutil ande soste godi.

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.

⁴Wo pechil ame ande sa amaro chinuria, saxke te sai ame pechisaras kodolen kai nakhen ande swako chinuria, ai te anas lenge o pechimos kai sas amen dino katar O Del.

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

⁵Ke sar le chinuria kai sas le Kristos bution ande amende, sakadia amaro pechimos bariol le Kristosa.

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.

⁶Te chinuisaras, si te aven tume pechime, ai te aven skepime; te sam ame pechime si te aven tume pechime, kai kodo pechimos dela tume te sai ankeren rhavdasa sa kodola chinuria kai ame chinuisaras.

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

⁷Ame pachas ai zhanas so avela tumensa, ke ame zhanas ke sar vi tume chinuin sar amende, vi tume sai aven pechime sar sam ame pechime.

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.

⁸Mangas amare phral te xhanen savestar chino dikhliam ande Asia. O chino kadia de baro sas amenge, ai nashti mai rhevdisarasas kai darasas ke si te meras.

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,

⁹Gindisardiam ke trobulas te meras ame, kodia kerdiliasas saxke te sichuas te na pachas ame ande amende, numa te pachas ame ferdi ando Del kai zhuvindil le mulen.

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;

¹⁰Wo si kai skepisardia ame anda kodia bari martia, ai wo kai mai skepila ame; e, si ame kodo pachamos ande leste ke mai skepila amen;

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.

¹¹ke tume zhutin ame kana rhugin tume anda amende, kadia O Del ashunela le rhugimata butenge kai rhuginpe anda amende, O Del zhutila amen; ai but naisina leske pa amende.

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.

¹²Eta, ande soste sai luvudisavas, amaro ilo mothol amenge ke amaro traio ande kadia lumia, ai mai but mashkar tumende sas prosto ai chachimasa angla Del, ai ninkerdo katar o mishtimos le Devlesko ai na katar e goji le manusheske.

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

¹³Ande amare lila chi ramosaras tumenge aver diela, de ferdi so si ramome ai so haliaren.

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.

¹⁴Ai pachav ma ke aresena te haliaren vorta so godi si ramome. Akana haliaren xantsi ferdi, numa kana avela O Jesus Kristo sai luvudin tume anda amende, sar ame avasa anda tumende.

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

¹⁵Pachavas ma ande kodia kai mangavas mai anglal te zhav tumende, saxke te avel tumen dino o mishtimos duvar.

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.

¹⁶Mangavas te nakhav tumendar te zhav ande Macedonia, porme kana avilemas palpale pale avilemas tumende, ai porme zhutisardianas ma te zhav ande Judea.

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?”

¹⁷Kana manglem te kerav kadia so gindin, ke pirasa kerdem? Vai so manglem te kerav si ferdi dieli mausheske saxke te mothav "E" vai "Nichi" andak data?

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

¹⁸Numa O Del si chacho, so phendem tumenge nai "E" ai "Nichi".

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.”

¹⁹Ke O Shav le Devlesko O Jesus Kristo sas phendo mashkar tumende katar o Silvanus, ai o Timote, ai vi me, chi aviliam te mothas "E" vai "Nichi", numa ferdi "E" kai si katar O Del.

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.

²⁰Wo si O Del kai si "E" ka sa le dieli kai shinadia. Katar O Jesus Kristo sai mothas "Amen" te bariaras le Devlesko anav.

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

²¹Ai wo si O Del kai del ame zor tumensa andak than ando traio le Kristosko. O Del si kai thodia ame rigate.

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

²²Kai thodia lesko semno pe amende, ai dia ande amare ile O Swunto Duxo, sar te ashel lasho andal dieli kai shinadia amenge.

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

²³Me akharav O Del sar murho marturo, wo zhanel murho ilo! Te na avela vari so pe tumende si kai manglem te na zhav inker ande Corinth.

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

²⁴Ame chi rodas te sicharas tume so te pachan, ke tume ankeren tumaro pachamos. Numa, ame mangas te keras buchi tumensa pe tumaro raduimos.
