2 Corinthians 8
1 But we make known to you, brethren, the grace of God bestowed in the assemblies of Macedonia;
Tiyaka muenga mmanyai, kaka ni dada, kup'etela neema ya K'yara yaipisibhu mu mmakanisa gha Makedonia.
2 that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty has abounded to the riches of their [free-hearted] liberality.
Magono gha papipi gha mateso, bhuingi fulaha ya bhene ni kuyongeseka kwa umasikini wa bhene uhoguili utajili ubhaa ni ukalimu.
3 For according to [their] power, I bear witness, and beyond [their] power, [they were] willing of their own accord,
Kwandabha nishudila yakuwa bhapisili kwa kadili kabhabhuesyai, ni kuzidi kabhabhwesyai.
4 begging of us with much entreaty [to give effect to] the grace and fellowship of the service which [was to be rendered] to the saints.
Ni kwa hiali yabhene bhabhene kwa kutusihi kuingi, bhatusomili kwajia ya kushiliki kup'etela huduma eye kwa bhaumini.
5 And not according as we hoped, but they gave themselves first to the Lord, and to us by God's will.
Eye yatokili hee kutya katatalajilai. Badala yaki, kuanza bhajipisili bha bhene kwajia ya Bwana. kabhele bhajipisili bha bhene kwa tete kup'etela mapenzi gha K'yara.
6 So that we begged Titus that, according as he had before begun, so he would also complete as to you this grace also;
Kaabhele tan'jobhili Tito, yaayele tiyali ayandili mbhombho eye, kuleta kup'etela mu utimilifu mu litendo ele la ukalimu panani payhomo.
7 but even as ye abound in every way, in faith, and word, and knowledge, and all diligence, and in love from you to us, that ye may abound in this grace also.
Ila muenga mna ubhuingi kup'etela kila khenu kup'etela imani, kup'etela lujobhelu, kup'etela umaalifa, kup'etela ubidii, ni kup'etela upendo bhuinu kwajia ya tete. Efe kabhele mhakikisiayi kujo mwiya ni ubhuingi kabhele kup'etela litendo ele la ukalimu.
8 I do not speak as commanding [it], but through the zeal of others, and proving the genuineness of your love.
Nijobha ele so kutya amuli. Badala yaki, nijobha ele ili kup'hema uhalisi wa upendo bhuinu kwa kulenganisya ni shauku ya bhanu bhangi.
9 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that for your sakes he, being rich, became poor, in order that ye by his poverty might be enriched.
Kwandabha mmanyili neema ya Bwana wayhoto Yesu Kristu. Hata kujobhela ayele tajili, kwajia ya yhomo ayele masikini. Yakuwa kup'etela umasikini wa muene ili muenga mubhwesya kuya bhatajili.
10 And I give [my] opinion in this, for this is profitable for you who began before, not only to do, but also to be willing, a year ago.
Kup'etela lijambo ele nikabhapela ushauli wawilota kubhasaidila. Mwaka ummonga waulotili, mwayandili hee tu kubhomba lijambo. Lakini mwatamene kuliketa.
11 But now also complete the doing of it; so that as [there was] the readiness to be willing, so also to complete out of what ye have.
Henu mlikamilisiayi. Kutya katayele ni shauku ni nia ya kuliketa, kabhele, ko, ngamwabhwesili kulileta mu ukamilifu, kwa kadili ka mwibhuesya.
12 For if the readiness be there, [a man is] accepted according to what he may have, not according to what he has not.
Kwandabha muye ni shauku ya kuketa lijambo ele, lijambo ele, lijambo linofu tu nalikakubalika. Lasima li yhema panani pa khela kaayenaku munu, so panani adulili munu.
13 For [it is] not in order that there may be ease for others, and for you distress,
Kwandabha mbhombho eye so kwajia ya bhamana bhabhwesyai kuya nafuu ni muenga mulenubhwai. Badala yaki, ni usawa.
14 but [on the principle] of equality; in the present time your abundance for their lack, that their abundance may be for your lack, so that there should be equality.
Bhuingi bhuinu kwa magono gha henu ulasaidila kwa khela kabhilonda. Eye ndo kabhele kujo ubhuingi wa bhene ubhwesyai kusaidila mahitaji ghinu, ni kujo kuyelai ni usawa.
15 According as it is written, He who [gathered] much had no excess, and he who [gathered] little was nothing short.
Eye ndo kutya kaayandiki; “Muene yaayele ni fhingi eyele hee ni khenu kihokela kakabakili ni muene yaayele ni kidusu ayele lepi ni uhitaji bhuoa bhola.”
16 But thanks [be] to God, who gives the same diligent zeal for you in the heart of Titus.
Ila ashukulibhuayi K'yara, yaabhekili n'teema mugati mwa Tito n'teema bhola bhola wa uyeleni bidii ya kujali ghaniyele naghu kwajia ya yhomo.
17 For he received indeed the entreaty, but, being full of zeal, he went of his own accord to you;
Kwandabha so tu ayop'holili maombi ghitu, bali kabhele ayele ni bidii kup'etela ni maombi aghu. Ahidili kwa muenga kwa hiali ya yumuene.
18 but we have sent with him the brother whose praise [is] in the glad tidings through all the assemblies;
Tuntumili pamonga ni muene ndhongo yaisifibhwa miongoni mwa makanisa kwajia ya mbhombho ya muene ya kutangasya injili.
19 and not only [so], but [is] also chosen by the assemblies as our fellow-traveller with this grace, ministered by us to the glory of the Lord himself, and [a witness of] our readiness;
Tee naa tu, ila kabhele aghagulibhu ni makanisa kusafili ni tete kup'etela kup'henda sehemu syoa sela litendo ele la ukalimu. Eye ndo kwa utukufu wa Bwana muene ni kwa shauku ya yhoto ya kusaidila.
20 avoiding this, that any one should blame us in this abundance [which is] administered by us;
Tiyepuka ni ubhuesekano wa yuoayhola ipasibhwa kulalamika kup'etela tete mu ukalimu obho watup'hendili.
21 for we provide for things honest, not only before [the] Lord, but also before men.
Tito lawangalifu kuketa kya kiyele kya heshima, so tu palongolo pa Bwana, nikabhele palongolo pa bhanu.
22 And we have sent with them our brother whom we have often proved to be of diligent zeal in many things, and now more diligently zealous through the great confidence [he has] as to you.
Kabhele tunkantuma ndongho yhongi pamonga ni bhene. Tumpemili mala singi, na tumbuene kujo yaayele ni shauku kwajia ya mbhombho singi. Hata henu ayele ni bidii zaidi kwa ndabha ya ujasili ubhaa ya ayele nabhu mugati bhuinu.
23 Whether as regards Titus, [he is] my companion and fellow-labourer in your behalf; or our brethren, [they are] deputed messengers of assemblies, Christ's glory.
Kwa habali ya Tito, Muene nshilika njangu ni mbhomba mbhombho njangu kwajia ya yhomo. Kujo tya kwa bhalongo bhitu, bhitumibhwa ni makanisa. Nando bha heshima bha Kristu.
24 Shew therefore to them, before the assemblies, the proof of your love, and of our boasting about you.
Ndo mbhalasyai upendo bhuinu, na mlasyai ni mmakanisa ndabha ya majifuno ghitu kwajia ya yhomo.
