II Corinthians 12

Tsy maintsy mirehareha aho, na dia tsy mahasoa aza izany; fa handroso hilaza fahitana sy fanambaran'ny Tompo aho.

It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.

Mahalala olona anankiray ao amin'i Kristy aho, tokony ho efatra ambin'ny folo taona lasa izay - na tao amin'ny tena, na tsy tao amin'ny tena, tsy fantatro, Andriamanitra no mahalala - ilay anankiray dia nakarina ho any amin'ny lanitra fahatelo.

I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven.

Ary mahalala ilay olona anankiray aho - na tao amin'ny tena, na tsy tao amin'ny tena, tsy fantatro, Andriamanitra no mahalala -

And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;)

fa nakarina ho any Paradisa izy ka nandre teny tsy azo tenenina sady tsy tokony holazain'olona.

How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

Ilay anankiray no hataoko rehareha; fa ny amin'ny tenako dia tsy hirehareha aho afa-tsy amin'ny fahalemena ihany.

Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities.

Fa na dia te-hirehareha aza aho, dia tsy ho adala, fa hilaza ny marina; nefa tsy manao izany aho, fandrao misy olona mihevitra ahy ho mihoatra noho izay ahitany ahy na izay andrenesany ny teniko.

For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me.

Ary fandrao hirehareha noho ny habetsaky ny fanambarana aho, dia nasiana tsilo tamin'ny nofo, dia irak'i Satana hamely ahy, fandrao hirehareha aho.

And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.

Izany no nangatahako intelo tamin'ny Tompo, mba hialan'izany amiko.

For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.

Nefa hoy Izy tamiko; Ampy ho anao ny fahasoavako; fa ny heriko. dia tanterahina amin'ny fahalemena. Koa mainka sitrako ny hirehareha amin'ny fahalemeko, mba hitoeran'ny herin'i Kristy amiko.

And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

Koa dia finaritra aho amin'ny fahalemena, amin'ny fampahoriana, amin'ny fahaterena, amin'ny fanenjehana, amin'ny fahantrana, noho ny amin'i Kristy; fa ny fahalemeko no fahatanjahako.

Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

Efa tonga adala aho; ianareo no nahatery ahy; fa tokony hoderainareo aho, satria tsy latsaka noho ireo Apostoly ambony indrindra ireo, na dia tsinontsinona aza aho.

I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I be nothing.

Ny famantarana mah'Apostoly ahy dia natao teo aminareo tokoa tamin'ny faharetana rehetra, tamin'ny famantarana sy ny fahagagana ary tamin'ny asa lehibe.

Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.

Fa inona moa no nahalatsaka anareo noho ny fiangonana sasany, afa-tsy ny tsy namakiako tratra anareo? Mamelà ahy ary amin'izany fahadisoana izany.

For what is it wherein ye were inferior to other churches, except it be that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this wrong.

Indro, efa fanintelony izao no vonona hankatỳ aminareo aho, nefa tsy hahavaky tratra anareo; fa tsy ny fanananareo no tadiaviko, fa ianareo; fa tsy ny zanaka no tokony hihary ho an'ny ray aman-dreniny, fa ny ray aman-dreniny no tokony hihary ho an'ny zanany.

Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.

Ary izaho dia faly indrindra handany sy holanina hahasoa ny fanahinareo, na dia araka ny fitombon'ny fitiavako anareo aza no fihenan'ny fitiavanareo ahy.

And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved.

Kanefa, na dia izany aza, izaho tsy nahavaky tratra anareo, fa nanao saina, hono, aho, dia nahazo anareo tamin'ny fihendrena.

But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you with guile.

Moa izay nirahiko tany aminareo va nisy nanaovako anareo ho vola aman-karena?

Did I make a gain of you by any of them whom I sent unto you?

Nangataka an'i Titosy aho, sady nirahiko nomba azy ilay rahalahy. Moa Titosy va nanao anareo ho vola aman-karena? Tsy fanahy iray ihany va no nandehananay? Tsy iray ihany va no dianay?

I desired Titus, and with him I sent a brother. Did Titus make a gain of you? walked we not in the same spirit? walked we not in the same steps?

Efa ela izay no nanaovanareo anay ho miala tsiny aminareo. Eo anatrehan'Andriamanitra no itenenanay ao amin'i Kristy; fa ny zavatra rehetra, ry malala, dia ho fampandrosoana anareo.

Again, think ye that we excuse ourselves unto you? we speak before God in Christ: but we do all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying.

Fa matahotra aho, fandrao, rehefa tonga aho, dia hahita anareo ho toy izay tsy tiako, ary ho hitanareo aho ho toy izay tsy tianareo ; fandrao hisy fifandirana, fialonana, fiafonafonana, fifampiandaniana, fanaratsiana, fibitsibitsihana, fieboeboana, fikotranana, -

For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there be debates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:

eny, fandrao, rehefa tonga indray aho, dia hampietry ahy eo anatrehanareo Andriamanitro, ary izaho hanana alahelo amin'ny maro izay nanota teo aloha ka tsy mbola nibebaka tamin'ny fahalotoana sy ny fijangajangana ary ny fijejojejoana nataony.

And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.
