1 A, Paul, da beg oona een de name ob Christ, wa kind an da beah wid people. Dey say A da taak low wen A dey wid oona, bot wen A ain dey close ta oona, A got plenty mout. 2 A da beg oona dat wen A come ta oona, oona ain gwine mek me hab scrong mout mongst oona, like A plan fa do mongst some people wa tink dat we da waak een de way ob de wol. 3 Fa true, we da lib een de wol, bot we ain da fight dis waa like people ob de wol da fight. 4 De weapon dem wa we tek fa fight wid, dey ain wa people ob dis wol fight wid. We got weapon wa got powa fom God fa stroy de scrong place dem ob de enemy. 5 We da nyuse dem weapon fa show dat de aagyment dem dat people da aagy bout God, dey ain mek no sense. We da stroy ebryting wa people wa tink dey high op da nyuse fa keep people fom know bout God. Ebry kinda way people da tink, we res um an pit um een de jailhouse til e ready fa obey Jedus Christ. 6 An wen fa true oona do all wa oona oughta do, we gwine be ready fa punish whosoneba ain da do wa e oughta do.

7 Oona da look jes at wa people see. Ef somebody dey wa da tink dat fa sho e blongst ta Christ, leh um memba dat jes like e blongst ta Christ, same fashion we blongst ta Christ. 8 A ain gwine be shame eben ef A taak a leetle tommuch bout de tority de Lawd gii we. E sen we fa come hep oona grow op een Christ. E ain sen we fa stroy oona. 9 A ain wahn oona fa tink dat A da write oona dem letta fa mek oona scaid. 10 Some people da taak say, “Paul da write haad ting full ob powa een dem letta yah wa e sen we. Bot wen e yah wid we, e ain look like e got no powa tall, an e taak ain mount ta nottin.” 11 Ef people da taak dat way, leh um ondastan dat wa we write een we letta wen we ain dey wid oona, dat de same ting we gwine do wen we dey wid oona.

12 Oona know dat we ain gwine be scrong mout nuff fa compare wesef wid some ob dem wa tink dey mo betta den oda people. Fa true, dey ain got sense! Dey jes da compare deysef wid one noda, an dey da jedge deysef jes by wasoneba dey tink right. 13 Bot we ain gwine taak bout no good ting dat we ain oughta taak bout. We gwine taak jes bout de wok God gii we fa do, an we wok mongst oona paat ob dat. 14 So we ain do nottin mo den wa we oughta do wen we come ta oona. We been de fus fa git ta oona an tell oona de Good Nyews bout Christ. 15 We ain taak bout de good wok wa oda people done do, wok wa ain paat ob wa God gii we fa do. Bot we wahn fa see oona trus een God mo an mo, so dat wiles oona da trus um mo an mo, we wok mongst oona gwine grow mo an mo. 16 Den we gwine be able fa go ta de lan dem oba yonda, clean oba ta de oda side ob weh oona dey, an tell all de people dey de Good Nyews. Cause we ain wahn fa taak bout de good wok wa oda people done do een dem lan weh God sen um.

17 Like dey write een God Book say, “Ef somebody wahn fa brag, leh um brag bout de good wok dat de Lawd done do.” 18 Cause de one wa taak bout esef, say e do good, dat one ain gwine git praise. De one wa de Lawd say e da do good, dat de one wa gwine git praise.
