1It is indeed unnecessary for me to write to you concerning the service to the saints,
1Chi mai trobul te tradav tumenge lil ai te mothav tumenge pa zhutimos kai si tradino ka narodo le Devlesko kai si ande Judea.
2for I know your readiness, of which I boast on your behalf to them of Macedonia, that Achaia has been prepared for a year past. Your zeal has stirred up very many of them.
2Zhanav ke tume drago tumenge te zhutin, ai luvudisardem tume angla narodo kai si ande Macedonia. Ai phendem lenge, "Le phral kai si ande Gretsia, gatale te zhutin de katar o bersh kai nakhlo." Tume kai drago tumenge te zhutin dia zor ka but anda lende.
3But I have sent the brothers that our boasting on your behalf may not be in vain in this respect, that, just as I said, you may be prepared,
3Tradav tumenge kadala phralen, saxke o luvudimos kai kerdiam pa tumende ande kadia diela te na rimolpe, mangav te aven chaches gata sar phendem.
4so that I won’t by any means, if there come with me any of Macedonia and find you unprepared, we (to say nothing of you) should be disappointed in this confident boasting.
4Te na nichi, o narodo kai si ande Macedonia te avena mansa ai te na arakhena tumen gata, lazhav avela amenge, ke ame kai jinasas pe tumende te aven gata, ai savestar lazhav avela tumenge.
5I thought it necessary therefore to entreat the brothers that they would go before to you, and arrange ahead of time the generous gift that you promised before, that the same might be ready as a matter of generosity, and not of greediness.
5No haliardem te mangav kadale phralen te zhan tumende mai anglal mandar te lasharen e podarka kai shinadian vunzhe, ai kadia avela gata kana avava, ai kodia sikavela ke tume den tumare ilesa, ai na bi lesko.
6Remember this: he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly. He who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.
6Den tume goji, kodo kai bariarel xantsi chidela xantsi, ai kodo kai bariarel but chidela but.
7Let each man give according as he has determined in his heart; not grudgingly, or under compulsion; for God loves a cheerful giver.
7Trobul swako manush te del, sar haliarel ande pesko ilo, ai na te mothol sostar dem, vai musai sas leske te del; ke O Del drago leske kodo kai del raduimasa.
8And God is able to make all grace abound to you, that you, always having all sufficiency in everything, may abound to every good work.
8Ai O Del si les e putiera te del tume but lashimata, saxke te avel tume sagda so trobul tume, ai mai but opral pala mishtimos kai keren.
9As it is written, “He has scattered abroad, he has given to the poor. His righteousness remains forever.” Psalm 112:9
9Ke E Vorba le Devleski mothol, "O Del del but kal chorhe; lesko lashimos shoxar chi getolpe."
10Now may he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food, supply and multiply your seed for sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;
10O Del, kai del sumuntsa kodoles kai shudel e sumuntsa ai manrho te pravardiol, dela tume sa e sumuntsa kai trobul tumen ai kerela te butiarela, ai butiol e fruta tumare chachimaski.
11you being enriched in everything to all liberality, which works through us thanksgiving to God.
11Kerela tumen te aven barvale ande swako vriama, saxke sagda te zhutin, ai kadia but naisina le Devles anda tumare podarki kai das le ame.
12For this service of giving that you perform not only makes up for lack among the saints, but abounds also through many givings of thanks to God;
12Ke kado zhutimos kai keren chi ferdi zhutil le Devleske narodos, numa kerela but rhugimata ai naisimata le Devleske.
13seeing that through the proof given by this service, they glorify God for the obedience of your confession to the Good News of Christ, and for the liberality of your contribution to them and to all;
13Kodo zhutimos sikavela so san, ai kadia but luvudina le Devles ke dikhena sar sikaven tumaro pachamos ande lashi viasta le Kristoski, ai luvudina les, vi sar hulaven dragosa tumaro mishtimos lensa, ai vi le kolavrensa.
14while they themselves also, with supplication on your behalf, yearn for you by reason of the exceeding grace of God in you.
14Ai rhugin tumenge, ai avena lenge drago katar o lashimos o baro kai O Del shordia pe tumende.
15Now thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift!
15Luvudime te avel O Del anda peski bari podarka!
