2 Corinthians 13

1 This third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every matter be established.

Lo ke lobaka lwa boraro ke ntse ke lo etela. Dikwalo di re bolelela gore fa ba le babedi kgotsa ba le bararo ba bone phoso, e tshwanetse go otlhaelwa. [(Se ke tlhagiso ya me ya boraro jaaka ke tlaa bo ke lo etela)].

2 I have declared beforehand, and I say beforehand as present the second time, and now absent, to those that have sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again I will not spare.

Ke setse ke tlhagisitse ba ba neng ba leofa fa ke ne ke le koo mo lobakeng lo lo fetileng; jaanong ke tlhagisa gape le botlhe ba bangwe fela jaaka ke dirile, gore ka nako e, ke tla ke ipaakanyeditse go otlhaya thata ebile ga nke ke ba rekegela.

3 Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, (who is not weak towards you, but is powerful among you,

Ke tlaa lo naya bosupi jotlhe jo lo bo batlang gore Keresete o bua ka nna. Keresete ga a bokoa mo go dirisanyeng ga gagwe le lona, mme ke ene nonofo e kgolo mo go lona.

4 for if indeed he has been crucified in weakness, yet he lives by God's power; for indeed we are weak in him, but we shall live with him by God's power towards you, )

Mmele wa gagwe wa setho o o bokoa o sule mo mokgorong, mme jaanong o tshela ka nonofo e kgolo ya Modimo. Le rona, re bokoa mo mebeleng ya rona, fela jaaka a ne a ntse, mme jaanong re a tshela re bile re na le nonofo yotlhe ya Modimo go e dirisa mo go dirisanyeng le lona.

5 examine your own selves if ye be in the faith; prove your own selves: do ye not recognise yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you, unless indeed ye be reprobates?

Itshekatshekeng, a lo Bakeresete tota? A lo fenya tlhatlhobo? A lo ikutlwa bolengteng jwa ga Keresete le nonofo gantsi mo go lona, kgotsa lo ipaya fela jaaka ekete lo Bakeresete ntswa lo se bone gotlhelele?

6 Now I hope that ye will know that we are not reprobates.

Ke solofela gore lo ka dumela gore ke emelane le tlhatlhobo eo mme ka boammaaruri ke wa Morena.

7 But we pray to God that ye may do nothing evil; not that we may appear approved, but that ye may do what is right, and we be as reprobates.

Ke rapela gore lo tshele matshelo a a siameng e seng ka ntlha ya gore re tla bonala, re supa gore se re se rutang se siame; nnyaa, gonne re batla gore lo dire tshiamo ntswa rona re nyadiwa.

8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.

Maikaelelo a rona ke go kgothatsa ka nako tse tsotlhe, e seng go solofela bosula.

9 For we rejoice when we may be weak and ye may be powerful. But this also we pray for, your perfecting.

Re itumelela go nna bokoa le go nyadiwa fa tota lo nonofile. Keletso ya rona e kgolo le thapelo ke gore lo nne Bakeresete ba ba nonofileng.

10 On this account I write these things being absent, that being present I may not use severity according to the authority which the Lord has given me for building up, and not for overthrowing.

Mme ke lo kwalela se jaanong ka tsholofelo ya gore ga nkitla ke omana kgotsa ke otlhaya fa ke tla, gonne ke batla go dirisa taolo ya Morena e o e nneileng, e seng go lo otlhaya mme e leng go lo nonotsha.

11 For the rest, brethren, rejoice; be perfected; be encouraged; be of one mind; be at peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

Ke fetsa lokwalo lwa me ka mafoko a a bofelo. Itumeleng. Golang mo Moreneng. Tlhokomelang se ke se buileng. Nnang ka kutlwano le kagiso. A Modimo o o lorato le kagiso o nne le lona.

12 Salute one another with a holy kiss.

Dumedisanyang mo Moreneng ka lorato.

13 All the saints salute you.

Bakeresete botlhe fano ba a dumedisa thata.

14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit, [be] with you all.

A tshegofatso ya Morena wa rona Jesu Keresete e nne le lona lotlhe. A lorato lwa Modimo le botsa-lano jwa Mowa O O Boitshepo e nne tsa lona.
