2 Ŵakolinto 9

1 Kwa ngani jankati kwajauchisya indu yetyosekwe kwa ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu ŵakutama ku Yudea, nganingola ligongo lya kunnembela sooni.

For of the relief which is for the saints, it is needless for me to write to you.

2 Pakuŵa ngumanyilila intite pakukola ntima wa kupeleganya, noneji ngulilapa nkati ngani jo kwa ŵandu ŵa ku Makedonia, njasalilaga kuti ŵandu ŵa ku Akaya aliŵisile chile kupeleganya chitandilile mwacheso. Nipele ntima wenu wakupeleganya wachisisye ŵandu achajinji, akole ntima wakupeleganya.

For I know your readiness of mind, on account of which I boasted of you to the Macedonians, that Achaia was ready a year ago: and your zeal has incited very many.

3 Nambo sambano ngwatuma achalongo achinjetu ŵa kuti kulilapa kwetu nkati ŵanyamwe kunaŵe kwa iyiyipeyi, mpela indite pakusala nliŵiche chile kwakamusya.

But I have sent the brethren, that our boasting of you in this respect may not be in vain; that you may be ready, as I said:

4 Iŵaga akwika ŵa ku Makedonia pamo ni une ni kunsimana nganinliŵiche chile, tutujaluche pakuŵa twalilapile kwaligongo lyenu, ni ŵanyamwe ŵakwe chinchikola soni.

lest, possibly, should the Macedonians come with me, and find you unprepared, we (not to say you) might be made ashamed by this same confident boasting.

5 Kwayele, naiweni yambone naŵende achalongo ŵa alongolele kwika kweleko kuti aŵiche chile mitulilo jimwalanjile kupeleganya. Mitulilo jo chijilosye kuti nkupeleganya kwa usache wenu ni ngaŵa kwa kukanganichiswa.

Therefore, I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren to go before to you, and make ready beforehand your bounty, which has been so much talked of before, that this might be ready as a bounty, and not as a gift extorted from you.

6 Nkumbuchile yakuti, jwakupanda kanondi chagungule kanondi, nombe jwakupanda yeijinji chagungule yeijinji.

But remember this, that he who sows sparingly, shall also reap sparingly; and he who sows bountifully, shall also reap bountifully.

7 Mundu jwalijose apeleganye chasachile muntima mwakwe kupeleganya, ngaŵa kwa kukanganichiswa namose kwakusupuka, pakuŵa Akunnungu akunnonyela jwakupeleganya kwa kusangalala.

Let each one give, as he purposes in his heart; not with grief, nor from necessity: for God loves a cheerful giver.

8 Ni Akunnungu akukombola kumpa ŵanyamwe kupunda aila yaikunsoŵa kuti katema kose nkole indu yejinji yakupanganyichisya masengo gagali gambone.

And God is able to confer every gift upon you abundantly, that you, always having all sufficiency in every thing, may have enough for every good work;

9 Mpela Malembelo ga Akunnungu igakuti kusala, “Jwele jwakwapa ŵakulaga kwa kusangalala. Umbone wakwe ukutama moŵa gose pangali mbesi.” (aiōn g165)

as it is written: He has scattered abroad; he has given to the poor; his righteousness remains forever. (aiōn g165)

10 Akunnungu ni ŵakwapa jwakupanda mbeju ni chakulya. Iyoyo champe ŵanyamwe mbeju syasikunsoŵa ni kusimelesya nombewo chachinjonjechesya magungulo kwa upeleganyo wenu wambone.

Now, he that furnishes seed to the sower will both furnish bread for food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;

11 Ŵanyamwe chimme ŵakusichila kuti mme ŵakupeleganya kwa kusangalala moŵa gose ni ŵandu chiŵatogolele Akunnungu kwa ligongo lya mitulilo japochele kwa litala lyetu uwe.

that you may be enriched in every thing, for all liberality which produces through us thanksgiving to God;

12 Pakuŵa masengo gakupeleganya gankugapanganya ga, ngaŵa kwakwakamuchisya ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu indu yaikwasoŵa pe, nambo chigakamusye ŵandu achajinji kwatogolela Akunnungu.

because the administration of this service not only supplies the wants of the saints, but also abounds in many thanksgivings to God;

13 Malinga ni kupeleganya kwenu kwaunonyelo, ŵandu chiŵakusye Akunnungu kwaligongo lya kwitichisya kwenu ni kujikamulisya Ngani Jambone ja Kilisito pamo ni ntima wa kupeleganya kunkwapa ŵele ni ŵandu wose.

(since through the proof which this service gives, they glorify God for your acknowledged subjection to the gospel of Christ, and for the liberality of your contribution for them, and for all; )

14 Nombewo chachimpopelela ŵanyamwe kwa ntima wa unonyelo, kwaligongo lya indu yekulungwa yampanganyichisye Akunnungu.

and in their prayer for you, since they have strong affection for you on account of the eminent grace of God that is in you.

15 Twatogolele Akunnungu kwa ntulilo wao wejinji wangaukuŵalanjika.

Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift.
