2 Corinthians 10
1 But I myself, Paul, entreat you by the meekness and gentleness of the Christ, who, as to appearance, [when present] [am] mean among you, but absent am bold towards you;
Nipele une che Paolo nansyene junguwoneka jwakulitimalika pinguŵa ni ŵanyamwe nambo natalichilaga ni ŵanyamwe nguŵa jwachikali mpela ŵane yakuti kusala. Ngunchondelela kwa chanasa ni umbone wakwe Kilisito.
2 but I beseech that present I may not be bold with the confidence with which I think to be daring towards some who think of us as walking according to flesh.
Ngunchondelela ngasimundendekasya meje jwakalipa pachinjiika kukwenu pakuŵa ikomboleka chinjiŵa jwa chikali kwa ŵandu ŵakutuganichisya kuti tukutama mpela ŵandu ŵa pachilambo chi.
3 For walking in flesh, we do not war according to flesh.
Isyene tukutama pachilambo, nambo ngatukumenyana mpela ŵandu ŵa pachilambo yakuti pakumenyana.
4 For the arms of our warfare [are] not fleshly, but powerful according to God to [the] overthrow of strongholds;
Pakuŵa, yakumenyanilana yetuwe ngaŵa ya pachilambo, nambo gali machili ga Akunnungu gagakukombola kugumula maboma gose ga ŵammagongo, tukusijonanga nganisyo syosye sya unami,
5 overthrowing reasonings and every high thing that lifts itself up against the knowledge of God, and leading captive every thought into the obedience of the Christ;
ni kugwisya nganisyo ni indu yose yaikulitutumula kuukanila umanyilisi wa Akunnungu, ni kusikamula nganisyo syose kuti sinjitichisye Kilisito.
6 and having in readiness to avenge all disobedience when your obedience shall have been fulfilled.
Mwaŵaga ŵa utindimisyo mu kwitichisya pelepo ni pachituŵe chile kunjamuka mundu jwalijose jwakukana kwitichisya.
7 Do ye look at what concerns appearance? If any one has confidence in himself that he is of Christ, let him think this again in himself, that even as he [is] of Christ, so also [are] we.
Ŵanyamwe nkulolesya indu chapasa pe. Ana kwana mundu jwakuliganichisya kuti jwelejo ali jwa Kilisito? Ili yambone, nambo aganichisyeje iyoyo kuti noweji tuli ŵa Kilisito mpela jwelejo yatite kuŵa jwa Kilisito.
8 For and if I should boast even somewhat more abundantly of our authority, which the Lord has given [to us] for building up and not for your overthrowing, I shall not be put to shame;
Namose iŵaga mbundile kulilapa ligongo lya ukombole watupele Ambuje nganingola soni pakuŵa ukombole wo uli kwaligongo lya kunlimbisya mchikulupi ni ngaŵa kungwisya ŵanyamwe.
9 that I may not seem as if I was frightening you by letters:
Ngangusaka nganisye kuti ngusaka kunjogoya ni ikalata yangu.
10 because his letters, he says, [are] weighty and strong, but his presence in the body weak, and his speech naught.
Pakuŵa ŵandu ŵane akuti, “Ikalata i che Paolo ili yachikali yaili ni maloŵe gakutopela, nambo nsyene jo pakuŵaga noweji akuŵa mundu jwakulepetala, ni pakukunguluka, maloŵe gao gakuŵa gangali chindu.”
11 Let such a one think this, that such as we are in word by letters [when] absent, such also present in deed.
Mundu jwakuŵecheta yeleyo aimanyilileje kuti, pangali utinda wa yaili mu ikalata tuli tutalichile ni yachituitendekanye twaŵaga pamo ni ŵanyamwe.
12 For we dare not class ourselves or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves; but these, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are not intelligent.
Ngatukuliŵika mu mpingo umo namuno kulilandanya ni ŵele ŵakulilapa achinsyene. Ŵelewo ali ŵakuloŵela, akulipima malinga ni chipimo chao achinsyene ni kulilandanya achinsyene kwa achinsyene.
13 Now we will not boast out of measure, but according to the measure of the rule which the God of measure has apportioned to us, to reach to you also.
Uweji ngatukulilapa mwakupelenganya, nambo kulilapa kwetu chikusigalile mu chipimo cha masengo gaatupele Akunnungu, masengo gatukugapanganya kukwenu nombe.
14 For we do not, as not reaching to you, overstretch ourselves, (for we have come to you also in the glad tidings of the Christ; )
Kulilapa kwetu nganitupelenganya, pakuŵa patwannyichisye Ngani Jambone ja Kilisito twaliji mmipika jetu.
15 not boasting out of measure in other people's labours, but having hope, your faith increasing, to be enlarged amongst you, according to our rule, yet more abundantly
Nipele ngatukulilapila masengo gapangenye ŵandu ŵane nambo tukulolela kuti, chikulupi chenu chichipunde konjecheka, masengo getu kukwenu chigapunde kwenela malinga ni mipika jatupele Akunnungu.
16 to announce the glad tidings to that [which is] beyond you, not to be boasting in another's rule of things made ready to hand.
Pelepo chitukombole kulalichila Ngani Jambone mu ilambo ine, kwapele chitulilapilile masengo gatupangenye twachinsyene ni ngaŵa masengo gapangenye ŵandu ŵane.
17 But he that boasts, let him boast in the Lord.
Nambo, mpela Malembelo ga Akunnungu igakuti pakusala, “Jwakulilapa alilape kwa achila chapangenye Ambuje.”
18 For not he that commends himself is approved, but whom the Lord commends.
Pakuŵa jwakukundikwa ngaŵa mundu jwakulilapa nsyene nambo ajula jwakulapikwa ni Ambuje.
