2 Ba Kkolinto 11
1 Ndipeekezya kuti ube aandime muli bumwi bufubafuba. Pesi nkasimpe kuti ulaandime!
I wish you could bear with me a little in my folly; but yet bear with me:
2 Nkaambo ndili aabbivwe anduwe. Ndikuchitila bbivwe lilaabunaLeza, nkaambo ndakakusyomezya lukwatano kumulumi omwe. Ndakasyomezya kukutondeezya kubantu mbuli nakalindu uumaninide kuli Kkilisito.
for I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy: for I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you a chaste virgin to Christ.
3 Pesi ndilikuyowa kuti muliimwi nzila, aawo mubbi sizibi nakeeneena Eva abusongo bwabumpelenge bwakwe, miyeyo yako ikonzya kusweeka kuzwa kukukomba kusinizizye alimwi kusalala kuliKkilisito.
But I fear lest, as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity which pertains to Christ.
4 Nkaambo kuti umwi muntu wasika wakambawuka uumwi Jesu kwiinda ooyo ngutwakakambawuka. Na kuti mwatambula uumbi muuya kwiinda ngumwakatambula kale kana kuti mwatambula limbi ijwi lisiyene kuli eelyo ndimwakatambula kale. Mbuli mbumukkala kamuzibona zintu eezi!
For if he that comes should preach another Jesus, whom we did not preach, or, if you receive another Spirit, which you did not receive, or another gospel, which you have not accepted, you would well bear with him.
5 Nkaambo ndiyeya kuti nsili aansi kababo baambwa kuti mbebatumwa bantu loko.
I count myself indeed to be in no respect inferior to the very greatest of the apostles.
6 Pesi nikuba kuti tendakayiya zyakwaambuula, tachaambi kuti nsikwe luzibo. Muli zyoonse nzila amuzintu zyoonse twakachita kuti eechi chizibwe kulindinywe.
But if I am unpolished in my style of speech, yet I am not so in knowledge. But we have been fully manifested among you in all things.
7 Ndakabisya na kulibombya kuchitila kuti musumpulwe? Nkaambo ndakamukambawukilamijwi lyaLeza kakutakwe muulo.
Have I committed a sin, in making myself lowly, that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel to you without cost?
8 Ndakabbida zimwi mbungano mukutambula lugwasyo lwabo kuti ndizoomubelekele.
I robbed other churches, taking wages to do you service: and when I was present with you, and wanted, I was not a burden to any one;
9 Nindakali aandinywe alimwi nkebulide taakwe ngundakalemezya. Nkaambo nzindakali kuponaazyo zyakali kuzwa kubakwesu ibakwaza kuMasedoniya. Kuli zyoonse ndakalibamba kuti nsibi mukuli kulindinywe, alimwi ndiyochita mbubo lyoonse.
for the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied my wants; and in every thing I have kept myself from being burdensome to you, and will continue to keep myself.
10 Mbuli simpe lyaKkilisito mbulili mulindime, ooku kupakala kwangu takukoyoowumuzigwa pe muli amwi masena aaku Akkayiya.
As the truth of Christ is in me, this boasting shall not be silenced, in my case, in the regions of Achaia.
11 Nkaambonzi? Nkaambo nsimuyandi pe? Leza nguuzi.
Why? Because I do not love you? God knows.
12 Alimwi nzichita ndiyoyinkilila kunembo akuzichita, kuchitila kuti ndikagonke mweenya wababo bayanda mweenya wakujanika kabali mbuli ndiswe muzintu nzibalidundiizya aatala anzizyo.
But what I am doing I will also continue to do, that I may cut off occasion from those who desire an occasion, that in what they boast, they may be found even as we.
13 Nkaambo bantu baliboobu mbatumwa babeji alimwi mbabelesi balaalweeno. Balyeena kuti mbatumwa baKkilisito.
For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ;
14 Alimwi eezi tazigambyi pe, nkaambo alakwe Satani ulyeena kuti mungelo wa mumuni.
and no wonder, for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15 Tachili chigambyo chipati pe kuti abalabo babelesi bakwe balyeena kuti mbabelesi ba bulumami. Impindu yabo iyooba eezyo zyeendelana amilimo yabo.
Therefore, it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves so as to be like the ministers of righteousness; of such, the end shall be according to their works.
16 Ndilaamba alimwi: Takubi muntu uyeya kuti ndili chifubafuba. Pesi kuti mboyeya, munditambule mbuli chifubafuba kuchitila kuti ndipakale buniini.
I say again, let no one think that I am without understanding; but if so, even as one without understanding bear with me, that I also may boast a little.
17 Nzindilikwaamba akupakala ooku kwakudundula - nsili kwaambuula munzila njali kunowambuula aayo pe Mwaami - njindili kuti mbuli chifubafuba.
What I say, I say not according to the Lord, but as in folly, in this same confidence of boasting.
18 Mbuli kuti bantu biingi bapakala zyeendelana anyama, ambebo ndiyoopakala.
Since many boast according to the flesh, I also will boast.
19 Nkaambo mulabotelwa kubaamwi abantu bafubafuba. Inywe lwenu muli basongo!
For it is a pleasure to you to bear with men of no understanding, since you yourselves are wise.
20 Nkaambo muntu umuchita bazike, na wamunyonyoona, wamulya maanu, walisumpula, na kuti wamusinka lubayi kumenso.
For you bear it, if one enslave you, if one devour you, if one take from you, if one exalt himself, if one smite you on the face,
21 Ndiyowamba kumawuse eesu kuti twakalilekelela loko akuchita oobo. Anu kuti umwi muntu wapakala - Ndili kwaambula mbuli chifubafuba - Ambebo ndilapakala.
I speak of their reproaches, as if we were weak. In whatever matter any one is bold, (I speak foolishly, ) I also am bold.
22 Mba Hibbulu na? Ambebo mbebede. Mba Izilayeli na? Ambebo mbebede. Mba mazyalane aa Abbulahamu na? Ambebo mbebede.
Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they of the posterity of Abraham? So am I.
23 Mbabelesi baKkilisito na? (Ndili kwaambula anga ndapenga.) Ndiliinda aawo: kumilimu miyumu, muntolongo nyingi, mukuumwa kwiindilide, mukuswanana antenda nyingi ziyosya.
Are they ministers of Christ? (I say it foolishly, ) I am above them. In labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths often.
24 Kuzwa kubaJuda ndakatambula tuli musanu “kunabbwa myoondo makumi one kakugwisigwa omwe.”
From the Jews, five times I received forty stripes, save one;
25 Tutatu ndakawumwa atulamu. Lumwi nketululwa mabwe. Tutatu nkezapukilwa bwaato. Ndakakkala busiku azuba lyomwe aantanganana mulwizi.
three times I was beaten with rods; once I was stoned; three times I have been shipwrecked; a night and a day I spent in the deep.
26 Ndakeenda twiingi nketentuuka milonga, nketentuuka bajayi, nketentuuka kubantu bakulindiswe, nketentuuka kuli bamasi, nketentuuka mugunzi, nketentuuka mulusaka, nketentuuka kulwizi, nketentuuka kuli bakwesu babeji.
In journeyings often, in perils from rivers, in perils from robbers, in perils from my own race, in perils from the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the desert, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;
27 Ndakabeleka mubuzike akoomba, mumansiku miingi akatali koonwa, munzala amunyota, twiingi kelyimya, mumpeyo amuchintanda.
in weariness and in toil, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness:
28 Kusiya kuli zyoonse zimwi, kuli kupengaana kwangu mazuba woonse nkeyeeya aatala ambungano zyoonse.
besides those things which come upon me from other sources, I have a daily concourse of troubles―my anxiety for all the churches.
29 Ngwani utakwe nguzu alimwi ime nsibulide nguzu? Ngwani wadadalisigwa, alimwi ime nsipyi?
Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is led into sin, and I am not incensed?
30 Kuti keyelede kupakala, ndiyopakala aatala azezyo zitondeezya kutasima kwangu.
If I must boast, I will boast in my infirmities.
31 Leza alimwi Wisi waMwaami Jesu, ooyo wakalongezegwa kutamani, ulizi kuti nsili kubeja pe! (aiōn g165)
The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed for ever, knows that I do not lie. (aiōn g165)
32 Ku Damasikkasi, imuleli munsi lyaMwaami Aletasi wakali kulinda gunzi lyaDamasikkasi kuti andisunge.
In Damascus, the governor under Aretas the king, guarded the city of the Damascenes, desiring to apprehend me:
33 Pesi ndakaselezegwa muchizuma kuzwa kumpulunguzyo yabulambo, alimwi ndakafutuka kuzwa kumaboko aakwe.
and through a window I was let down in a basket through the wall, and escaped his hands.
