< 2 Corinthians 3 >

1 Are we beginning again to commend ourselves? Unless we need, as some men, commendatory letters to you or commendatory from you?
Mbe, echamba okwikumaga abhene lindi? chitakwenda jinyalubha ejokumwenda okusoka kwimwe ya bhanu, mbe echenda?
2 Ye are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all men,
Emwe abhene ni inyalubha eswe inu yandikilwe mu mwoyo jeswe, inuimenyelwe no kusomwa na bhanu bhona.
3 being seen that ye are a letter of Christ, administered by us, written not in ink, but in the Spirit of the living God, not in stony tablets, but in fleshly tablets, in hearts.
No mwelesha ati emwe ni nyalubha okusoka ku Kristo, inu isosibwe neswe. Inuyandikilwe atali kwo bwino nawe kwo Mwoyo gwa Nyamuanga unu ali muanga. Itandikilwe ingulu ya mabhao ga mabhui, nawe ingulu ya mabhao ge mitima ja bhana munu.
4 And we have such confidence toward God through Christ,
Niko kutyo echiikanya ku Nyamuanga okulabhila ku Kristo. Chitakwiikanya abhene chonachona okusoka kweswe.
5 not that we are sufficient of ourselves to reckon anything as from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God,
Okwiikanya kweswe okusoka ku Nyamuanga.
6 who also made us qualified helpers of a new covenant, not of a document, but of a Spirit, for the document kills but the Spirit makes alive.
Ni Nyamuanga unu achikolele kubha bhakosi bha indagano inyaya. Inu ni ndagano itali nyalubha nawe ni ya Mwoyo. Kwo kubha inyalubha eita, nawe omwoyo oguleta obhuanga.
7 But if the administration of death in writings engraved on stones occurred in glory, so that the sons of Israel could not gaze upon the face of Moses because of the fading glory of his countenance,
Woli omulimu gwo kufwa gwaliga kusong'owe ingulu ya mabhui yejile kwa likusho ati abhanu bha Israeli bhatalolele kubwambilo obhusu bwa Musa. Inu ni kwo kubha likusho lyo bhusu bwae, likusho linu lyaliga elyo kuwao.
8 how will the administration of the Spirit not be more in glory?
Mbe, emilimu jo mwoyo itakubha na likusho?
9 For if the administration of condemnation has glory, the administration of righteousness excels much more in glory.
Kwo kubha okulamula kwaliga na likusho, ni lwakalinga nisakila muno kwa likusho!
10 For also that which has been glorified, has not been glorified in this regard, because of the glory that transcends.
Ni chimali ati, chiliya echochakolelwe likusho kwamba chitana likusho lindi lisima linu, kwo kubha likusho eliyongesha.
11 For if that which is abolished was through glory, much more that which remains is in glory.
Kwo kubha chiliya chinu chaliga nichilabha chaliga na likusho, chiliya chinu ni cho kusakila echibha na likusho!
12 Having therefore such a hope we use great boldness,
Kwo kubha chili no bwiikanyo eyo, chili no bwiikanyo muno.
13 and are not as Moses. He put a veil over his face in order for the sons of Israel not to gaze on the end of the fading.
Obhusoka lya Musa atulileo ingulu yo bhusu base, koleleki abhanu bha Israeli bhatatula okulola kubwambilo na kubhutelo kwa likusho linu elibhula.
14 But their minds were hardened, for to this day the same veil remains at the reading of the old testament, not being uncovered, which thing is abolished in Christ.
Nawe amenge gebwe galiga gegawe. Nolwo olusiku lunu olusigala ingulu yo kusomwa indagano ya kala. Ichali kutulwa abwelu, kwo kubha Kristo umwila kasosibwao kula.
15 But to this day when Moses is read, a veil lies upon their heart.
Nawe nolwo lelo, omwanya gwona gwona Musa kasomwao, kayanja ingulu ye mitima jebwe.
16 But whenever it turns to the Lord, the veil is removed.
Nawe omunu awo kageuka ku Lata bhugenyi, echisosibwao.
17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
Woli Lata bhugenyi ni Mwoyo. anu kabha Mwoyo wa Lata bhugenyi, nuwo obhufule.
18 But we all, with unveiled face seeing by reflection the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same likeness from glory to glory, just as from the Spirit of the Lord.
Woli eswe bhona, amwi no bhusu bhutaswikiwe, obhulola likusho lya Lata bhugenyi echiingisibwa munda yo kulolya guli guli kwa likusho okusoka mu likusho okugenda andi, kutyo okusoka ku Lata bhugenyi, unu ni Mwoyo.
