1 A niga qudhayda oo Bawlos ah waxaan idinku baryayaa qabownimada iyo raxmadda Masiixa, anigoo is-hoosaysiiya markaan dhexdiinna joogo, laakiin xaggiinna geesi ku ah markaan idinka maqnahay.

And I, Paul, myself, do call upon you -- through the meekness and gentleness of the Christ -- who in presence, indeed humble among you, and being absent, have courage toward you,

2 L aakiin waxaan idinka baryayaa inaanan anigu markaan joogo geesi ku ahaan hubaashaas aan u malaynayo inaan geesi ku ahaado xagga kuwa nagu tirinaya inaannu sida jidhka ku soconno.

and I beseech, that, being present, I may not have courage, with the confidence with which I reckon to be bold against certain reckoning us as walking according to the flesh;

3 M axaa yeelay, in kastoo aannu jidhka ku soconno, sida jidhka uma dagaallanno,

for walking in the flesh, not according to the flesh do we war,

4 w aayo, hubka dagaalkayagu ma aha xagga jidhka, laakiin xoog bay leeyihiin Ilaah hortiisa in qalcado lagu dumiyo.

for the weapons of our warfare not fleshly, but powerful to God for bringing down of strongholds,

5 W axaannu baabbi'innaa murannada, iyo wax kasta oo sarreeya oo aqoonta Ilaah iska sarraysiiya, oo fikir kasta maxbuus baannu ka dhignaa, si uu Masiix u addeeco,

reasonings bringing down, and every high thing lifted up against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of the Christ,

6 a nnagoo u diyaar ah inaannu ka aarsanno caasinimo oo dhan markii ay addeeciddiinnu kaamil noqoto.

and being in readiness to avenge every disobedience, whenever your obedience may be fulfilled.

7 W axaad eegaysaan waxa idin hor yaal. Haddii qof uun isku hubo inuu ka mid yahay kuwa Masiix, midkaasi mar kale isaga qudhiisu ha ka fiirsado in, siduu isagu uga mid yahay kuwa Masiix, aannu annaguna uga mid nahay.

The things in presence do ye see? if any one hath trusted in himself to be Christ's, this let him reckon again from himself, that according as he is Christ's, so also we Christ's;

8 W aayo, in kastoo aan si badan ugu faanayo amarkayaga uu Rabbigu noo siiyey inaannu idinku dhisno ee aanu noo siin inaannu idinku duminno, weliba layma ceebayn doono.

for even if also anything more abundantly I shall boast concerning our authority, that the Lord gave us for building up, and not for casting you down, I shall not be ashamed;

9 T an waxaan u idhi inaanan u ekaan sidii anigoo warqadahayga idinku cabsiinaya.

that I may not seem as if I would terrify you through the letters,

10 W aayo, waxay yidhaahdaan, Warqadihiisu culays iyo xoog bay leeyihiin, laakiin joogidda jidhkiisu way tabardaran tahay, oo hadalkiisana waa la fududaystaa.

`because the letters indeed -- saith one -- weighty and strong, and the bodily presence weak, and the speech despicable.'

11 K aasoo kale ha ogaado in sidaannu xagga hadalka warqadaha ku nahay markaannu maqan nahay, aannu xagga falimaha ku nahay markaannu joogno.

This one -- let him reckon thus: that such as we are in word, through letters, being absent, such also, being present, in deed.

12 W aayo, kuma dhacno inaannu isku tirinno ama isu ekaysiinno kuwa is-ammaana. Laakiin iyaga qudhooda oo isku qiyaasaya qudhooda oo isu ekaysiinaya qudhooda waa garaadlaawayaal.

For we do not make bold to rank or to compare ourselves with certain of those commending themselves, but they, among themselves measuring themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are not wise,

13 I su faanin mayno si qiyaastayada dhaafsiisan, laakiin sida ay tahay qiyaasta Ilaah noo qaybiyey inay qiyaas ahaato, si aannu idiin soo gaadhno.

and we in regard to the unmeasured things will not boast ourselves, but after the measure of the line that the God of measure did appoint to us -- to reach even unto you;

14 W aayo, annaga qudhayadu si dhaafsiisan isugu kala bixin mayno sidii annagoo aan idin soo gaadhin; waayo, xataa idinka ayaannu idiinla nimid injiilka Masiix,

for not as not reaching to you do we stretch ourselves overmuch, for even unto you did we come in the good news of the Christ,

15 a nnagoo aan si dhaafsiisan uga faanayn hawlihii dadka kale, laakiin rajo u leh intuu rumaysadkiinnu korayo inaannu aad iyo aad ugu weynaan doonno dhexdiinna sida soohdintayada ah,

not boasting of the things not measured, in other men's labours, and having hope -- your faith increasing -- in you to be enlarged, according to our line -- into abundance,

16 s i aannu injiilka ugu wacdinno meelaha idinka shisheeya oo aanan ku faanin waxa laga diyaariyey qof kale soohdintiisa.

in the beyond you to proclaim good news, not in another's line in regard to the things made ready, to boast;

17 K ii faanaa, Rabbiga ha ku faano.

and he who is boasting -- in the Lord let him boast;

18 M a aha ka qudhiisa ammaana ka loo bogaa, laakiin waa ka uu Rabbigu ammaano.

for not he who is commending himself is approved, but he whom the Lord doth commend.
