2 Corinthians 2
1 But I determined this with myself, not to come to you again in sorrow.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩgũtua ndaatuire itua atĩ ndikũmũceerera rĩngĩ ndĩmũiguithie kĩeha.
2 For if I make you sorrowful, who is he then that can make me glad, but the same who is made sorrowful by me?
Tondũ-rĩ, ingĩkĩmũiguithia kĩeha-rĩ, nũũ ũngĩgĩtigara wa kũngenia, o tiga inyuĩ arĩa njiguithĩtie kĩeha?
3 And I wrote this same to you; that I may not, when I come, have sorrow upon sorrow, from them of whom I ought to rejoice: having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.
Ndamwandĩkĩire ũguo nĩgeetha rĩrĩa ngooka ndikanaiguithio kĩeha nĩ acio njagĩrĩirwo nĩgũkenio nĩo. Nĩ ndaarĩ na ũũmĩrĩru harĩ inyuĩ inyuothe atĩ nĩmũngĩagwatanĩire na niĩ gĩkeno-inĩ gĩakwa, nakĩo gĩtuĩke kĩanyu.
4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart, I wrote to you with many tears: not that you should be made sorrowful: but that you might know the charity I have more abundantly towards you.
Nĩgũkorwo ndamwandĩkĩire ndĩ mũthĩĩnĩku mũno, na ndĩ na ruo rwa ngoro na maithori maingĩ, ti atĩ nĩguo ndĩmũiguithie kĩeha, no nĩguo ndĩmũmenyithie wendo ũrĩa ndĩmwendete naguo.
5 And if any one have caused grief, he hath not grieved me; but in part, that I may not burden you all.
Angĩkorwo nĩ kũrĩ mũndũ ũiguithĩtie amwe anyu kĩeha-rĩ, ti niĩ aiguithĩtie, no nĩ inyuothe aiguithĩtie kĩeha. Ndiroiga ũguo ngĩhatĩrĩria ũrĩa wĩkĩte ũguo.
6 To him who is such a one, this rebuke is sufficient, which is given by many:
Iherithia rĩrĩa aherithĩtio nĩ andũ arĩa aingĩ anyu, nĩrĩmũiganĩte.
7 So that on the contrary, you should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.
Rĩu inyuĩ-rĩ, nĩmwagĩrĩirwo nĩkũmũrekera na kũmũũmĩrĩria, nĩguo ndakae gũtoorio nĩ kĩeha gĩkĩrĩte.
8 Wherefore, I beseech you, that you would confirm your charity towards him.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ndamũthaitha mũmuonie atĩ no mũmwendete.
9 For to this end also did I write, that I may know the experiment of you, whether you be obedient in all things.
Gĩtũmi kĩrĩa gĩatũmire ndĩmwandĩkĩre marũa macio nĩndĩmũgerie, na menye kana no mwĩtiirie magerio na mwathĩkage maũndũ-inĩ mothe.
10 And to whom you have pardoned any thing, I also. For, what I have pardoned, if I have pardoned any thing, for your sakes have I done it in the person of Christ.
Mũndũ ũrĩa mũngĩrekera, o na niĩ nĩndamũrekera. Naguo ũndũ ũrĩa ndekanĩire-rĩ (hangĩkorwo nĩ haarĩ ũndũ o na ũrĩkũ wa kũrekanĩra), ũndũ ũcio ndaũrekanĩra nĩ ũndũ wanyu ndĩ mbere ya Kristũ,
11 That we be not overreached by Satan. For we are not ignorant of his devices.
nĩguo Shaitani ndakae gũtũhoota. Nĩgũkorwo tũtirigĩtwo nĩ mawara make.
12 And when I was come to Troas for the gospel of Christ, and a door was opened unto me in the Lord,
Na rĩrĩ, rĩrĩa ndaathiire Teroa kũhunjia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa Kristũ, na ngĩkora Mwathani ahingũrĩte mũrango-rĩ,
13 I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother; but bidding them farewell, I went into Macedonia.
ndiigana kũgĩa na thayũ ngoro-inĩ yakwa, tondũ ndiakorire mũrũ-wa-Ithe witũ Tito kuo. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngiugĩra andũ akuo ũhoro, ngĩcooka ngĩthiĩ nginya Makedonia.
14 Now thanks be to God, who always maketh us to triumph in Christ Jesus, and manifesteth the odour of his knowledge by us in every place.
No rĩrĩ, Ngai arogoocwo, o we ũrĩa ũtũtongoragia hĩndĩ ciothe na ũhootani thĩinĩ wa Kristũ, nake agatũhũthagĩra ta tũrĩ mũtararĩko mwega wa kũmemerekia ũhoro wa kũmenya Kristũ kũndũ guothe.
15 For we are the good odour of Christ unto God, in them that are saved, and in them that perish.
Tondũ ithuĩ tũrĩ mũtararĩko wa Kristũ ũrĩa ũkinyaga harĩ Ngai, kũrĩ arĩa marahonokio o na arĩa maroora.
16 To the one indeed the odour of death unto death: but to the others the odour of life unto life. And for these things who is so sufficient?
Kũrĩ arĩa maroora-rĩ, tũrĩ mũnungo mũũru wa gĩkuũ; no kũrĩ arĩa marahonokio-rĩ, tũrĩ mũtararĩko wa muoyo. Nũũ ũngĩhota wĩra ta ũcio?
17 For we are not as many, adulterating the word of God; but with sincerity, but as from God, before God, in Christ we speak.
Ithuĩ tũtiĩkaga ta ũrĩa andũ aingĩ mekaga; tũtionjorithagia kiugo kĩa Ngai nĩguo tuone uumithio. Handũ ha gwĩka ũguo-rĩ, ithuĩ twaragia tũrĩ na wĩhokeku thĩinĩ wa Kristũ mbere ya Ngai, ta andũ matũmĩtwo nĩ Ngai.
