2 Corinthians 4
1 For this reason, because we have been made servants of this new order, through the mercy given to us, we are strong:
Kulwejo, kulwokubha china imfulubhendo inu, na lwakutyo chilamiye echigongo, chitakufwa mwoyo.
2 And we have given up the secret things of shame, not walking in false ways, and not making use of the word of God with deceit; but by the revelation of what is true, as before God, we have the approval of every man's sense of right and wrong.
Nawe chilalemele jinjila jona ejanjiswalo na jinu jiselekele. Chitakwikala kwo bhuligelige, na chitalikolela kubhibhi lisango lya Nyamuanga. Kwokuleta jinu jili jachimali, echiyolesha eswe abhene mumitima gwa bhuli munu imbele ya Nyamuanga.
3 But if our good news is veiled, it is veiled from those who are on the way to destruction:
Nawe ikabha okulasha kwemwe kwiselekele, iselekele kubhaliya bhanu abhasimagila.
4 Because the god of this world has made blind the minds of those who have not faith, so that the light of the good news of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, might not be shining on them. (aiōn g165)
Mubhusosi bhwebhwe, nyamuanga we chalo chinu aongelesishe obhwiganilisha bhinu bhutakwikilisha. Echo echibhonekana, bhatakutula kulola obwelu bhwe misango jo bhwana ja likusho lya Kristo, unu ali lususo lwa Nyamuanga. (aiōn g165)
5 For our preaching is not about ourselves, but about Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your servants through Jesus.
Kulwokubha chitakwilasha eswe abhene, tali Kristo kuti Latabhugenyi, na eswe abhene lwa bhakosi bhemwe ingulu ya Yesu.
6 Seeing that it is God who said, Let light be shining out of the dark, who has put in our hearts the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
Kulwokubha Nyamuanga niwe aikile, “Obhwelu bhuli sekana okusokelela muchisute.” Achisekaniye mumyoyo jeswe, okusosha obhwelu bhwo bhwengeso bwa likusho lya Nyamuanga mukubhao kwa Yesu Kristo.
7 But we have this wealth in vessels of earth, so that it may be seen that the power comes not from us but from God;
Nawe chili nobhunibhi mubhinu bhya limoga, koleleki imenyekane ati amanaga amakulu ni ga Nyamuanga na gatali geswe.
8 Troubles are round us on every side, but we are not shut in; things are hard for us, but we see a way out of them;
Echinyaka bhuli nyanko, nawe chitakulumatanyishwa. Echifwa emyoyo nawe chitakwijula okufwa emyoyo.
9 We are cruelly attacked, but not without hope; we are made low, but we are not without help;
Echinyansibhwa nawe chichali kweswa. Echeswa ansi nawe chitakusimagisibhwa.
10 In our bodies there is ever the mark of the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may be seen in our bodies.
Nsiku jona echigega kumubhili gweswe olufu lwa Yesu, koleleki obhuanga bhwa Yesu bhubhonekane ona mumibhili jeswe.
11 For, while living, we are still being given up to death because of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may be seen in our flesh, though it is under the power of death.
Eswe bhanu chilamile nsiku jona chisosibhwe okufwa ingulu ya Yesu, koleleki obhuanga bhwa Yesu bhubhonekane mumubhili jeswe ejechinyamubhili.
12 So then, death is working in us, but life in you.
Kulwainsonga inu, olufu olukola emilimu munda yeswe, nawe obhuanga obhukola emilimu munda yemwe.
13 But having the same spirit of faith, as it is said in the Writings, The words of my mouth came from the faith in my heart; in the same way, our words are the outcome of our faith;
Nawe china omwoyo guliya guliya ogwelikisha okulubhana nachinu chandikilwe: “Nekilisishe, kulwejo naikile. “Eswe ona echikilisha, nakutyo ona echaika.
14 Because we are certain that he who made the Lord Jesus come back from the dead, will do the same for us, and will give us a place in his glory with you.
Echimenya ati uliya amusuluye Latabhugenyi Yesu ona alichisulula amwi nage. Echimenya ati alichileta eswe amwi nemwe mubhumwi bhwae.
15 For we go through all things on account of you, because the greater the number to whom the grace is given, the greater is the praise to the glory of God.
Bhuli chinu ni ingulu yemwe koleleki, nalwakutyo echigongo echisugana kubhanu bhamfu, lisime lyani libhone okwiyongesha kwa likusho lya Nyamuanga.
16 For which cause we do not give way to weariness; but though our outer man is getting feebler, our inner man is made new day by day.
Kulwejo chitakufwa mioyo. Nolo kutyo anja chinyamukile, nawe munda echikolwa bhayaya kunsiku na kunsiku.
17 For our present trouble, which is only for a short time, is working out for us a much greater weight of glory; (aiōnios g166)
Kwomwanya gunu mufuyi, okunyaka kunu okwololo agachikola eswe ingulu ya kajanende okusito kwa likushyo linu elikila ndengo yona. (aiōnios g166)
18 While our minds are not on the things which are seen, but on the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are for a time; but the things which are not seen are eternal. (aiōnios g166)
Kulwokubha chitakulola ingulu ye bhinu bhinu ebhibhonekana, nawe ingulu yebhinu bhinu bhitakubhonekana. Ebhinu bhinu echitula okulola ebhibhonekana nibhyomwanyala, nawe bhinu bhitakubhonekana nibhya kajanende. (aiōnios g166)
