1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints which are in all Achaia: 2 Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; 4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. 5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ. 6 And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation. 7 And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation. 8 For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life: 9 But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead: 10 Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us ; 11 Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.
12 For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward. 13 For we write none other things unto you, than what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end; 14 As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also are ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.
15 And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye might have a second benefit; 16 And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea. 17 When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea yea, and nay nay? 18 But as God is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay. 19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea. 20 For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us. 21 Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; 22 Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts. 23 Moreover I call God for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth. 24 Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.
I.
1 Pōvuls, caur Dīva vaļu Jezus Kristus paaicynōtais apostols un brōļs Timotejs Dīva draudzei Korintā reizē ar vysim svātajim, kuri ir vysā Achaijā.
2 Žēlesteiba jums un mīrs lai ir nu Dīva myusu Tāva un nu Kunga Jezus Kristus.
3 Lai ir slaveits Dīvs, myusu Kunga Jezus Kristus Tāvs un apsažālōšonōs Tāvs un ikvīnas īprīcynōšonas Dīvs.
4 Jys myusus īprīcynoj ikvīnūs spaidūs un tai mes varam arī cytus īprīcynōt ikvīnūs spaidūs ar tū īprīcynōšonu, ar kuru myusus pošus īprīcynoj Dīvs. 5 Kai mes montōjam pōrpiļneibā Kristus cīsšonas, tai pat pōrpiļneibā caur Kristus montōsim īprīcynōšonu. 6 Jo mes asam spaidūs, tod tys ir jyusu īprīcynōšonai un pesteišonai, un jo mes asam īprīcynōti, tad arī tys ir jyusu pesteigai īprīcynōšonai. (Jo mes byusim paskubynōti, tad tys ir jyusu pamūdynōšonai un izlobōšonai). Caur tū jyus varat pacīteigi panest tōs pošas cīsšonas, kuras mes cīšam. 7 Par jums myusu cereiba ir stypra, jo mes zinim, ka jyus byusit kai cīsšonu, tai arī īprīcynōšonas leidzdaleibnīki.
8 Brōli, mes nagrybam, ka jyus byutu nazynōšonā par tim spaidim, kas mums beja jōpōrcīš Azijā. Jī myusus tik stipri pōri par spākim apmīdze, ka mes pat par dzeiveibu krytom izmysumā, 9 un poši sevī jau nosōjam nōves sprīdumu. Mums beja jōīsamōca pasaļaut na pošim uz sevis, bet gon uz Dīva, kas ceļ augšam nūmyrušūs. 10 Un Jys myusus izglōbe nu tik lelom brīsmem, glōb myusus tagad un, kai mes ceram, glōbs arī turpmōk. 11 Arī jyus vīnojitēs lyugšonā par mums, lai par mums uzrōdeitū žēlesteibu nu daudzejū lyupom myusu vōrdā nōktu daudzkōrteiga pateiceiba.
Kavēšonōs īmesli.
12 Myusu dīžonums pastōv myusu sirdsapziņas līceibā, ka mes svātumā un attureibā Dīva prīškā, na mīseigā gudreibā, bet gon Dīva žēlesteibas spākā pa pasauli staigojam, un it seviški storp jums. 13 Mes nikō cyta jums narokstam, kai tik tū, kū jyus losat un saprūtat. Un es ceru, ka jyus saprassit piļneigi, 14 kai jyus jau pa daļai asat myusus saprotuši, ka mes asam jyusu dīžonums, kai arī jyus byusit myusejais (dižonums) myusu Kunga Jezus (Kristus) dīnā.
15 Šytamā pōrlīceibā es jau gribēju pi jums aizīt pyrmōk, lai jyus žēlesteibu sajimtu divkōrš. 16 Un nu jums es gribēju dūtīs uz Makedoniju un nu Makedonijas grīstīs pi jums atpakaļ un nu jums sev pajimt pavodūņus uz Judeju. 17 Bet vai es šytamā nūdūmā beju vīglprōteigs? Vai arī sovūs nūdūmūs es asmu atkareigs nu īgrybas tai, ka man jā, jā ir nē, nē? 18 Kai Dīvs ir uzticeigs, tai myusu runa jums nav reizē jā un nē. 19 Jo Dīva Dāls Jezus Kristus, kuru mes: es, Silvans un Timotejs jums sludynōjom, nabeja reizē jā un nē, bet gon jymā izapiļdeja jā. 20 Vysas Dīva apsūleišonas caur jū palyka par jā; un Jymā ir Amen Dīvam par gūdu caur mums. 21 Bet tys, kas myusus reizē ar jums ikš Kristus nūstyprynōja, ir Dīvs. 22 Jys myusus apzeimūgōja un īlyka myusu sirdīs Goru kaī īprīkšgolvōjumu.
23 Pi sovas dzeiveibas es pīsaucu Dīvu par līcinīku, ka es uz Korintu nagōju, lai jyusus saudzātu; 24 un na tōpēc, ka mes jyusu ticeibu grybātu pōrvaļdeit, bet gon tōpēc, ka mes gribējom leidzstrōdōt jyusu prīcā, jo jyus ticeibā asot stipri.
