⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.

2:1

ለሊክሙ ተአምሩ አኀዊነ ዘከመ ገበርነ ለክሙ ወኢኮነ በከንቱ በዊኦትነ ኀቤክሙ።

For you yourselves know, brothers, our visit to you wasn’t in vain,

弟兄們，你們自己原曉得我們進到你們那裏並不是徒然的。

2:2

ዳእሙ ሐመምነ ወተጽእልነ ዘከመ ተአምሩ በፊልጵስዩስ ወአሜሃ ነገርናክሙ በብዙኅ ጻማ ትምህርተ ክርስቶስ በሞገሱ ለአምላክነ።

but having suffered before and been shamefully treated, as you know, at Philippi, we grew bold in our God to tell you the Good News of God in much conflict.

我們從前在腓立比被害受辱，這是你們知道的；然而還是靠我們的上帝放開膽量，在大爭戰中把上帝的福音傳給你們。

2:3

እስመ ኢኮነ ትምህርትነ ዘስሒት ወኢ ዘርኵስ ወኢኮነ ዘጽልሑት።

For our exhortation is not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in deception.

我們的勸勉不是出於錯誤，不是出於污穢，也不是用詭詐。

2:4

ዳእሙ በዘአመከረነ እግዚአብሔር ወተአመነነ በትምህርተ ወንጌሉ ከማሁ ንነግር ወአኮ ከመ ዘለሰብእ ያደሉ ዘእንበለ ለእግዚአብሔር ዘአመከረነ ልበነ።

But even as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News, so we speak—not as pleasing men, but God, who tests our hearts.

但上帝既然驗中了我們，把福音託付我們，我們就照樣講，不是要討人喜歡，乃是要討那察驗我們心的上帝喜歡。

2:5

ወእምአመ ኮነ ኢየዋህናክሙ በቃል በከመ ተአምሩ ወኢተዐገልናክሙ በምክንያት ስምዕነ እግዚአብሔር በዝንቱ።

For neither were we at any time found using words of flattery, as you know, nor a cloak of covetousness (God is witness),

因為我們從來沒有用過諂媚的話，這是你們知道的；也沒有藏着貪心，這是上帝可以作見證的。

2:6

ወኢንፈቅድ ያድሉ ለነ ሰብእ ኢአንትሙ ወኢባዕድ እንዘ ንክል አክብዶ ከመ ሐዋርያተ ክርስቶስ።

nor seeking glory from men (neither from you nor from others), when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Christ.

我們作基督的使徒，雖然可以叫人尊重，卻沒有向你們或向別人求榮耀；

2:7

ዳእሙ ኮነ ከመ ሕፃናት በማእከሌክሙ ወከመ ሐፃኒት እንተ ተሐዝል ደቂቃ።

But we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother cherishes her own children.

只在你們中間存心溫柔，如同母親乳養自己的孩子。

2:8

ከማሁ ንሕነኒ ናፈቅረክሙ ወንጽሕቅ ለክሙ ከመ ንመጡክሙ ወአኮ ባሕቲቶ ወንጌለ እግዚአብሔር ዓዲ ነፍሰነሂ እስመ ፍቁራነ ኮንክሙነ።

Even so, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you not the Good News of God only, but also our own souls, because you had become very dear to us.

我們既是這樣愛你們，不但願意將上帝的福音給你們，連自己的性命也願意給你們，因你們是我們所疼愛的。

2:9

ወተዘከሩ አኀዊነ ጻማነ ወስራሐነ መዓልተ ወሌሊተ ኮነ ንትጌበር ከመ ኢናክብድ ላዕለ አሐዱሂ እምውስቴትክሙ።

For you remember, brothers, our labor and travail; for working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, we preached to you the Good News of God.

弟兄們，你們記念我們的辛苦勞碌，晝夜做工，傳上帝的福音給你們，免得叫你們一人受累。
