2 Corinthians 5
1 For we know that if our earthly tabernacle house be destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. (aiōnios g166)
Mana twenga tuvimaa kuwera shisasa ashi shatulikala pasipanu, ndo nshimba zyetu, pazitupulwa, Mlungu hakatupanani numba ya mashaka goseri kumpindi, numba ya mashaka goseri yayinyawilwa ndiri kwa mawoku ga wantu. (aiōnios g166)
2 For indeed in this we groan, ardently desiring to have put on our house which [is] from heaven;
Na vinu, twankulolera kwa mata nentu kupananwa nshimba ya kumpindi kwa Mlungu.
3 if indeed being also clothed we shall not be found naked.
Toziya patupananwa nshimba zya kumpindi kwa Mlungu, hapeni tuwoneki twahera nshimba.
4 For indeed we who are in the tabernacle groan, being burdened; while yet we do not wish to be unclothed, but clothed, that [what is] mortal may be swallowed up by life.
Twenga patuwera twankali twankulikala mushisasa ashi sha pasipanu, twankusapira na kufintirwa, tufira ndiri kuyivula nshimba ayi ya kuhowa, kumbiti tufira kuvalisiwa nshimba ilii yayihowa ndiri, su shilii shashihowa shigalambulwi na shilii shana ukomu.
5 Now he that has wrought us for this very thing [is] God, who also has given to us the earnest of the Spirit.
Mlungu mweni katutandiriti shitwatira ashi, nayomberi katupanana Rohu gwakuwi kaweri ulanguziwu kwa goseri gakatutuliriti.
6 Therefore [we are] always confident, and know that while present in the body we are absent from the Lord,
Su, mashaka goseri tugangamala. Tuvimana handa kulikala munshimba ayi, twakutali mnumba yatwenga na Mtuwa.
7 (for we walk by faith, not by sight; )
Toziya tulikala ndiri kwa kuwona, kumbiti tulikala kwa njimiru.
8 we are confident, I say, and pleased rather to be absent from the body and present with the Lord.
Twenga tugangamala na metufiri tulikali kutali na nshimba azi na tulikali pamuhera na Mtuwa.
9 Wherefore also we are zealous, whether present or absent, to be agreeable to him.
Kumbiti shitwatila shikulu nentu, tufira kumfiriziya Mtuwa patulikala mnumba ya pasipanu ama mnumba ya kumpindi kwa Mlungu.
10 For we must all be manifested before the judgment-seat of the Christ, that each may receive the things [done] in the body, according to those he has done, whether [it be] good or evil.
Toziya twenga twoseri hatugoloki kulongolu kwa Kristu na yomberi hakatutozi. Kila muntu hakanki shilii shakafiriziwitwi kwanka kwa galii gakatenditi pasipanu, gaweri gaherepa ama madoda.
11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord we persuade men, but have been manifested to God, and I hope also that we have been manifested in your consciences.
Toziya tuvimana nentu ntambu ya kumtira Mtuwa, su tujera kuwanika wantu wamonga. Mlungu katumana hweri na naneni nulitumbira mwenga mmana hweri myoyu yatwenga.
12 [For] we do not again commend ourselves to you, but [we are] giving to you occasion of boast in our behalf, that ye may have [such] with those boasting in countenance, and not in heart.
Tufira ndiri kayi kulijuma twaweni kulongolu kwa mwenga. Kumbiti tuwapanana toziya ziherepa zyetu zya kulitumbira, su mwezi kawawankula walii yawalitumbira wantu yawawoneka kuliku ntambu yawawera mumoyu mwawu.
13 For whether we are beside ourselves, [it is] to God; or are sober, [it is] for you.
Payiwera tuwoneka kuwera twanalukwali, twanalukwali kwajili ya Mlungu na mahala getu gaherepa, ayi ndo kwa mota yamwenga.
14 For the love of the Christ constrains us, having judged this: that one died for all, then all have died;
Twenga tulonguziwa na ufiru wa Kristu, vinu tuwera tuvimana handa muntu yumu hera kahowiti kwajili ya wantu woseri, su twawoseri tuhowa pamuhera na yomberi.
15 and he died for all, that they who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who died for them and has been raised.
Kahowiti kwajili ya woseri, su yawalikala walikali ndiri kwa toziya yawu weni, kumbiti kwajili yakuwi yomberi yakahowiti na kazyukisiyitwi kwajili yawu.
16 So that we henceforth know no one according to flesh; but if even we have known Christ according to flesh, yet now we know [him thus] no longer.
Su, kwanjira vinu, twenga tumwalanga ndiri muntu yoseri shiuntu, ata handa tumwalangiti Kristu shiuntu, kumbiti vinu hapeni tutenda hangu kayi.
17 So if any one [be] in Christ, [there is] a new creation; the old things have passed away; behold all things have become new:
Muntu yoseri pakalikolerana pamuhera na Kristu, muntu ayu kawera shiumbi sha syayi, ga makashu gapita, gawera ga syayi.
18 and all things [are] of the God who has reconciled us to himself by [Jesus] Christ, and given to us the ministry of that reconciliation:
Goseri aga galawa kwa Mlungu, yakatugalambula twenga kulawa muungondu na kututenda tuweri waganja wakuwi kupitira Kristu na katupananiti lihengu kukolaniziya mawoku.
19 how that God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their offences; and putting in us the word of that reconciliation.
Mlungu kaweriti mngati mwa Kristu, kawatenda wantu waweri waganja wakuwi kupitira Kristu. Yomberi kawawalangiriti ndiri vidoda vyawu na yomberi katupananiti ujumbi wa kukolaniziya mawoku.
20 We are ambassadors therefore for Christ, God as [it were] beseeching by us, we entreat for Christ, Be reconciled to God.
Su twenga tutakula ntambu yakatakula Kristu yatutakula nayomberi Mlungu katutumiya twenga kuwaluwani. Tuwaluwani mwenga kwa ajili ya Kristu, mkolaniziwi mawoku na Mlungu.
21 Him who knew not sin he has made sin for us, that we might become God's righteousness in him.
Kristu kaweriti ndiri na vidoda, kumbiti Mlungu kamtenda kapapi vidoda vyetu, su kwa kulikolerana pamuhera nayomberi, twenga tuweri wantu waheri wa Mlungu.
