2 KORINTI 12

Ketangkasen ras pengenehenen si ialoken Paulus

1 Aminna pe la lit gunana, la banci lang meganjang cakapku. Genduari kuturiken kerna pengenehenen ras ketangkasen i bas Tuhan nari. 2 Lit kutandai sekalak Kristen; sepuluh empat tahun si enggo lewat ia rempet iangkat ku adep-adepen Dibata i Surga. Ntah kulana ikut terangkat ntah lang, la kueteh -- Dibata metehsa. 3 Sekali nari kukataken: kueteh maka ia rempet iangkat ku Pardis. (Ntah kin e jadi ikut ras kula ntah lang, la kueteh -- Dibata si metehsa.) 4 I je ibegina kata-kata si la terbelasken, si la banci ibelasken manusia. 5 Kerna kalak si bage me si ku megahken tapi kerna diringku jine gegehku si kurang nge cakapku meganjang.

6 Bahanlah maka nggit aku meganjang ngerana; aku labo seri ras kalak si la sehsa, sabap si tuhu-tuhu nge si kukataken e. Tapi kutahan kal maka la meganjang cakapku, sabap la ateku ikira kalak aku lebih asa si iidahna i bas aku dingen si enggo ibegina i bas aku nari.
7 Gelah ola meganjang ukurku kerna pengenehenen si mejin e, ibereken duri i bas dagingku, e me persuruhen Iblis guna ngeligas aku gelah ola meganjang ukurku. 8 Telu kali aku ertoto man Tuhan kerna si enda, gelah ipedauhna min si e i bas aku nari. 9 Tapi ngaloi Tuhan, “Cukup kap lias ateKu man bandu; sabap gegehKu serta kap i bas gegeh si kurang.” Erkiteken si e meriah kal ukurku meganjang ngerana kerna gegehku si kurang gelah gegeh Kristus mengketi aku.

10 E maka senang kuakap i bas gegehku si kurang, i bas aku igombang-gombangi kalak, i bas aku kepiceten, bage pe i bas aku isiksa kalak, i bas kesusahen erkiteken Kristus. Sabap adi gegehku kurang, i je me maka aku megegeh.

Aru ate Paulus nandangi perpulungen Korinti

13 I bas kai kin kam kurang kuperdiateken ibandingken ras perpulungen-perpulungen si deban, seakatan la aku jadi tanggungenndu? Mahapkenlah kesalahenku e.
14 Enda me petelu kaliken aku enggo ersikap lako ndahi kam, janah i bas si e pe labo ateku aku jadi tanggungenndu. Labo sikerajangenndu, tapi kam kap ateku. Sabap labo metunggung anak-anak pepulung erta guna orang tuana, tapi orang tua nge si pepulung erta guna anakna.

15 Senang ukurku engkeriken si lit i bas aku, janah lebih asa si e, diringku jine pe nggit aku engkorbankenca guna kam. Reh kurangna kin kekelengenndu man bangku adi sampur kekelengenku man bandu?
16 Tentu iakuindu nge maka labo pernah kam kuberati. Tapi lit ka nge si ngatakenca maka kusidingi kam alu tipu ras akalku. 17 Kuga kin? Pernah kin kubuat untung i bas kam nari arah kalak si kusuruh ndahi kam?

18 Kupindo man Titus gelah idahina kam, bage pe kusuruh senina si deban ikut ras ia. Lit kin Titus muat untung i bas kam nari? Ma bali nge perukuren ras perbahanen kami?
19 Iakapndu kin kidekah enda iusahaken kami mbela diri kami i adep-adepenndu? Lang! I adep-adepen Dibata, i bas persadan ras Kristus nge si tuhuna kami ngerana. Janah kerina si ilakoken kami e, o si kukelengi, gunana majekken kam kap. 20 Mbiar aku maka adi reh pagi aku ndahi kam, kudapeti kam la bagi si kuarapken, bage pe aku la bagi si iarapkenndu. Mbiar aku maka kudapeti kam pagi rubat, sician-cianen, gara ukur, pengilas ukur teman alu peganjangken bana, mahan-mahani si la tuhu kerna teman, sicekurak-cekuraken, sigombang-gombangen, ras perpulungen la ratur. 21 Mbiar aku maka adi reh pagi aku ndahi kam, mela kuakap ibahan Dibatangku i lebe-lebendu erkiteken kegagalenku. Mbiar ka pe aku maka nterem kalak si enggo erbahan dosa i bas paksa si enggo lewat tangis aku ibahanna sabap lalap ia la nggit jera erlagu la mehuli, erlua-lua, dingen ndalanken perbahanen si la meteh mela.

2 Corinthians 12

Paul’s Thorn in the Flesh

1 It is necessary to go on boasting.t Though it is not profitable, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord.2 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago (whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows) was caught up to the third heaven.3 And I know that this man (whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, God knows)4 was caught up into paradises and heard things too sacred to be put into words,t things that a persont is not permitted to speak.5 On behalf of such an individual I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except about my weaknesses.6 For even if I wish to boast, I will not be a fool, for I would be tellingt the truth, but I refrain from this so that no one may regardt me beyond what he sees in me or what he hears from me,7 even because of the extraordinary character of the revelations. Therefore,s so that I would not become arrogant, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to troublet me – so that I would not become arrogant.t8 I asked the Lord three times about this, that it would depart from me.9 Butt he said to me, “My grace is enought for you, for myst power is made perfectt in weakness.” So then, I will boast most gladlyt about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may reside int me.

10 Therefore I am content witht weaknesses, with insults, with troubles, with persecutions and difficultiest for the sake of Christ, for whenever I am weak, then I am strong.

The Signs of an Apostle

11 I have become a fool. You yourselves forced me to do it, for I should have been commended by you. For I lack nothing in comparisont to those “super-apostles,” even though I am nothing.12 Indeed, the signs of an apostle were performed among you with great perseverancet by signs and wonders and powerful deeds.t13 For howt were you treated worse than the other churches, except that I myself was not a burden to you? Forgive me this injustice!14 Look, for the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden to you, because I do not want your possessions, but you. For children should not havet to save up for their parents, but parents for their children.15 Now I will most gladly spend and be spent for your lives!t If I love you more, am I to be loved less?16 But be that as it may, I have not burdened you. Yet because I was a crafty person, I took you in by deceit!17 I have not taken advantage of you through anyone I have sent to you, have I?t18 I urged Titus to visit yout and I sent ourt brother along with him. Titus did not take advantage of you, did he?t Did we not conduct ourselves in the same spirit? Did we not behave in the same way?t19 Have you been thinking all this times that we have been defending ourselves to you? We are speaking in Christ before God, and everything we do, dear friends, is to build you up.t20 For I am afraid that somehow when I come I will not find you what I wish, and you will find met not what you wish. I am afraid thatt somehow there may be quarreling, jealousy, intense anger, selfish ambition,t slander, gossip, arrogance, and disorder.

21 I am afraid thatt when I come again, my God may humiliate me before you, and I will grieve fort many of those who previously sinned and have not repented of the impurity, sexual immorality, and licentiousness that they have practiced.
