2 Corinthians 2
1 But I have judged this with myself, not to come back to you in grief.
Kotero ndinatsimikiza maganizo anga kuti ndisachitenso ulendo wina owawa wobwera kwanuko.
2 For if I grieve you, who also [is] it that gladdens me, if not he that is grieved through me?
Pakuti ngati ndikumvetsani chisoni, kodi angandisangalatse ndani, kupatula inuyo amene ndakumvetsani chisoni?
3 And I have written this very [letter] [to you], that coming I may not have grief from those from whom I ought to have joy; trusting in you all that my joy is [that] of you all.
Nʼchifukwa chake ndinakulemberani monga ndinachitiramo kuti nditabwera kwanuko ndisadzamve chisoni ndi anthu oyenera kundisangalatsa. Ndinali ndi chikhulupiriro ndi inu nonse kuti inuyo mukakhala ndi chimwemwe poona kuti inenso ndili ndi chimwemwe.
4 For out of much tribulation and distress of heart I wrote to you, with many tears; not that ye may be grieved, but that ye may know the love which I have very abundantly towards you.
Pakuti ndinakulemberani kalata ija ndili wopsinjika ndi wowawidwa mtima kwambiri ndi kutuluka misozi yambiri, osati pofuna kukumvetsani chisoni koma kuti ndikudziwitseni kuti ndimakukondani kwambiri.
5 But if any one has grieved, he has grieved, not me, but in part (that I may not overcharge [you]) all of you.
Koma ngati wina wamvetsa chisoni, sanamvetse chisoni ine ndekha, koma koposa mosawonjezera wakhumudwitsa nonsenu, kunenatu mosawonjezera.
6 Sufficient to such a one [is] this rebuke which [has been inflicted] by the many;
Chilango chimene ambiri a inu mwamupatsa munthu ameneyu nʼchokwanira.
7 so that on the contrary ye should rather shew grace and encourage, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with excessive grief.
Mʼmalo mwake tsono, muyenera kumukhululukira ndi kumulimbikitsa mtima kuti asamve chisoni choposa muyeso, angataye mtima.
8 Wherefore I exhort you to assure him of [your] love.
Choncho ndikukupemphani kuti mutsimikizire chikondi chanu pa iye.
9 For to this end also I have written, that I might know, by putting you to the test, if as to everything ye are obedient.
Cholinga china chimene ndinakulemberani kalata ija chinali chofuna kukuonani ngati mudzandimvera pa zonse.
10 But to whom ye forgive anything, I also; for I also, what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, [it is] for your sakes in [the] person of Christ;
Aliyense amene mumukhululukire, inenso ndimukhululukira. Ndipo ndikakhululukira, ngati pali kanthu koti ndikhululukire, ndiye kuti ndakhululuka chifukwa cha inu pamaso pa Khristu,
11 that we might not have Satan get an advantage against us, for we are not ignorant of his thoughts.
kupewa kuti Satana angapezere mpata pa ife, pajatu timadziwa machenjerero ake.
12 Now when I came to Troas for the [publication of the] glad tidings of the Christ, a door also being opened to me in [the] Lord,
Tsono nditafika ku Trowa kuti ndilalikire Uthenga Wabwino wa Khristu, nʼkupeza kuti Ambuye anditsekulira khomo,
13 I had no rest in my spirit at not finding Titus my brother; but bidding them adieu, I came away to Macedonia.
ndinasowa mtendere mu mtima mwanga, chifukwa sindinapezeko mʼbale wanga Tito. Choncho ndinatsanzikana ndi anthu kumeneko nʼkupita ku Makedoniya.
14 But thanks [be] to God, who always leads us in triumph in the Christ, and makes manifest the odour of his knowledge through us in every place.
Koma tithokoze Mulungu amene amatitsogolera nthawi zonse monga ogwidwa ku nkhondo a Khristu pa chipambano chake. Tsono amatigwiritsa ntchito yofalitsa ponseponse nzeru zodziwira Khristu ngati fungo labwino.
15 For we are a sweet odour of Christ to God, in the saved and in those that perish:
Pakuti kwa Mulungu ndife fungo labwino la Khristu pakati pa iwo amene akupulumutsidwa ndi amene akuwonongeka.
16 to the one an odour from death unto death, but to the others an odour from life unto life; and who [is] sufficient for these things?
Kwa amene akuwonongeka ndife fungo la imfa, limawapha. Ndipo kwa amene akupulumuka ndife fungo lamoyo, limawapatsa moyo. Ndani angayithe ntchito yotereyi?
17 For we do not, as the many, make a trade of the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as of God, before God, we speak in Christ.
Kusiyana ndi ena ambiri, ife sitilalikira Mawu a Mulungu kuti tipeza phindu. Mʼmalo mwake, ife mwa Khristu timayankhula pamaso pa Mulungu moona mtima, monga anthu otumidwa ndi Mulungu.
