< 2 Corinthians 9 >

1 For concerning the ministry that is done towards the saints, it is superfluous for me to write unto you.
Na rĩrĩ, ndikuona harĩ bata ndĩmwandĩkĩre ũhoro wa ũteithio ũrĩa wagĩrĩire kũheo andũ arĩa aamũre.
2 For I know your forward mind: for which I boast of you to the Macedonians. That Achaia also is ready from the year past, and your emulation hath provoked very many.
Nĩgũkorwo nĩnjũũĩ kĩyo kĩanyu gĩa kwenda gũteithia, na nĩngoretwo ngĩĩrahĩra ũndũ ũcio kũrĩ andũ a Makedonia, ngameera atĩ kuuma mwaka ũcio ũrathirire, inyuĩ andũ a Akaia mũtũire mwĩhaarĩirie kũheana; na kĩyo kĩu kĩanyu nĩkĩo kĩarahũrĩte aingĩ ao.
3 Now I have sent the brethren, that the thing which we boast of concerning you, be not made void in this behalf, that (as I have said) you may be ready:
No nĩngũtũma ariũ a Ithe witũ nĩguo kwĩraha gwitũ nĩ ũndũ wanyu ũhoro-inĩ ũyũ wa mũhothi gũtigatuĩke gwa tũhũ, no mũgaakorwo mwĩhaarĩirie, o ta ũrĩa ndoigire atĩ nĩmwĩharĩirie.
4 Lest, when the Macedonians shall come with me, and find you unprepared, we (not to say ye) should be ashamed in this matter.
Nĩgũkorwo andũ amwe a Makedonia mangĩrehane na niĩ makore mũtehaarĩirie-rĩ, ithuĩ, o na tũtekũmũgweta-rĩ, nĩtũgaaconoka nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo tũmwĩhokeete.
5 Therefore I thought it necessary to desire the brethren that they would go to you before, and prepare this blessing before promised, to be ready, so as a blessing, not as covetousness.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, nĩndĩronire arĩ wega gũthaitha ariũ a Ithe witũ maambe mamũceerere ihinda rĩu rĩtanakinya, nĩguo marĩkĩrĩrie mĩbango ya kĩheo kĩa ũtaana kĩrĩa mweranĩire. Hĩndĩ ĩyo kĩheo kĩu nĩgĩgakorwo kĩrĩ ho, na kĩheanĩtwo na kwĩyendera, no ti na kũringĩrĩrio.
6 Now this I say: He who soweth sparingly, shall also reap sparingly: and he who soweth in blessings, shall also reap blessings.
Ririkanai ũũ: Mũndũ ũrĩa ũhaandaga tũnini akaagetha o tũnini, nake ũrĩa ũhaandaga nyingĩ akaagetha nyingĩ.
7 Every one as he hath determined in his heart, not with sadness, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
O mũndũ aagĩrĩirwo nĩkũheana kĩrĩa atuĩte na ngoro yake nĩekũheana, na ndakaheane atekwenda kana taarĩ kũringĩrĩrio, nĩgũkorwo Ngai endaga mũndũ ũrĩa ũheanaga akenete.
8 And God is able to make all grace abound in you; that ye always, having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work,
Nake Ngai arĩ na ũhoti wa gũtũma mũingĩhĩrwo nĩ maũndũ mothe ma wega wake, nĩguo maũndũ-inĩ mothe na mahinda-inĩ mothe, mũkoragwo na kĩrĩa gĩothe mũbatarĩtio nĩkĩo, nĩguo mũkoragwo mũingĩhĩtie indo cia kũruta wĩra o wothe mwega.
9 As it is written: He hath dispersed abroad, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever. (aiōn g165)
O ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Nĩahurunjĩte iheo ciake akahe andũ arĩa athĩĩni; ũthingu wake ũtũũraga nginya tene na tene.” (aiōn g165)
10 And he that ministereth seed to the sower, will both give you bread to eat, and will multiply your seed, and increase the growth of the fruits of your justice:
Na rĩrĩ, ũrĩa ũheaga mũhandi mbeũ na akamũhe irio cia kũrĩa, nĩarĩmũheaga mbeũ cia kũhaanda, na atũme cingĩhe, na ongerere magetha ma ũthingu wanyu.
11 That being enriched in all things, you may abound unto all simplicity, which worketh through us thanksgiving to God.
Na inyuĩ nĩmũrĩtongagio na njĩra ciothe nĩguo mũheanage na ũtaana hĩndĩ ciothe, naguo ũtaana wanyu, nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra witũ, ũtũmage Ngai acookagĩrio ngaatho.
12 Because the administration of this office doth not only supply the want of the saints, but aboundeth also by many thanksgivings in the Lord,
Ũteithio ũyũ mũraruta ti kuuga atĩ no andũ a Ngai mũrahingĩria mabata mao, no nĩũtũmaga Ngai acookagĩrio ngaatho na njĩra nyingĩ.
13 By the proof of this ministry, glorifying God for the obedience of your confession unto the gospel of Christ, and for the simplicity of your communicating unto them, and unto all.
Na tondũ wa ũtungata ũcio mwĩonanĩtie naguo ũrĩa mũhaana-rĩ, andũ nĩmarĩgoocaga Ngai nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa mwathĩkĩire Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa Kristũ ũrĩa muumbũraga atĩ nĩmũwĩtĩkĩtie-rĩ, na nĩ ũndũ wa ũtaana wanyu wakũgwatanĩra nao o na wakũgwatanĩra na andũ arĩa angĩ othe.
14 And in their praying for you, being desirous of you, because of the excellent grace of God in you.
Na rĩrĩa mekũmũhoera, ngoro ciao nĩimwĩciiragia, tondũ wa ũrĩa wega wa Ngai ũrĩa inyuĩ mũheetwo ũkĩrĩrĩirie kũingĩha.
15 Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift.
Ngai arocookerio ngaatho nĩ ũndũ wa kĩheo gĩake kĩrĩa gĩtangiugĩka na ciugo ũrĩa gĩtariĩ!
