2 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother: to the church of God that is at Corinth, with all the saints that are in all Achaia:
Pauro muapositori waJesu Kristu nechido chaMwari, naTimotio hama, kukereke yaMwari iri paKorinde, pamwe nevatsvene vese vari muAkaya yese:
2 Grace unto you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Nyasha kwamuri nerugare rwunobva kuna Mwari Baba vedu nekuna Ishe Jesu Kristu.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort.
Ngaavongwe Mwari, uye vari Baba vaIshe wedu Jesu Kristu, Baba vetsitsi uye Mwari wenyaradzo yese,
4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation; that we also may be able to comfort them who are in all distress, by the exhortation wherewith we also are exhorted by God.
anotinyaradza padambudziko redu rese, kuti tigone kunyaradza avo vari mudambudziko ripi neripi, nenyaradzo yatinonyaradzwa nayo isu tomene naMwari.
5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us: so also by Christ doth our comfort abound.
Nokuti matambudziko aKristu sezvaakawedzerwa matiri, saizvozvowo nyaradzo yedu yakawedzerwa nemuna Kristu.
6 Now whether we be in tribulation, it is for your exhortation and salvation: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation: or whether we be exhorted, it is for your exhortation and salvation, which worketh the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer.
Zvino kana tichirwadziwa, ndezvenyaradzo neruponeso rwenyu zvinobatiswa mukutsungirira mumatambudziko mamwewo atakatambudzikawo isu; kana tichinyaradzwa, ndezvenyaradzo neruponeso rwenyu;
7 That our hope for you may be steadfast: knowing that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so shall you be also of the consolation.
uye tariro yedu maererano nemwi yakasimba, tichiziva kuti sezvamuri vagovani vematambudziko, saizvozvowo venyaradzo.
8 For we would not have you ignorant, brethren, of our tribulation, which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure above our strength, so that we were weary even of life.
Nokuti hatidi kuti musaziva, hama, pamusoro pedambudziko redu rakatiwira paAsia, kuti takaremerwa zvikurusa kukunda simba redu, zvekuti takarasa tariro kunyange yeupenyu.
9 But we had in ourselves the answer of death, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raiseth the dead.
Asi isu pachedu takange tine mutongo werufu matiri, kuti tirege kuzvivimba isu asi kuna Mwari anomutsa vakafa;
10 Who hath delivered and doth deliver us out of so great dangers: in whom we trust that he will yet also deliver us.
wakatinunura parufu rukuru rwakadai, uye anonunura; watinovimba maari kuti achatinunurazve;
11 You helping withal in prayer for us: that for this gift obtained for us, by the means of many persons, thanks may be given by many in our behalf.
nemwi muchishandira isu pamwe nemukumbiro, kuti nekuda kwechipo pamusoro pedu kubudikidza nevanhu vazhinji tivongerwe nevazhinji.
12 For our glory is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity of heart and sincerity of God, and not in carnal wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have conversed in this world: and more abundantly towards you.
Nokuti kuzvikudza kwedu ndikoku, kupupura kwehana yedu, kuti muumwe neuzvokwadi hwaMwari, kwete neuchenjeri hwenyama, asi nenyasha dzaMwari, takazvibata panyika, zvikuru maererano nemwi.
13 For we write no other things to you than what you have read and known. And I hope that you shall know unto the end:
Nokuti hatinyori zvimwe zvinhu kwamuri, asi izvo zvamunoverenga nezvamunogamuchira; uye ndinovimba kuti muchazvigamuchirawo kusvika pakuguma;
14 As also you have known us in part, that we are your glory, as you also are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
sezvamakatigamuchirawo muchidimbu, kuti tiri rumbidzo yenyu, semwiwo yedu nezuva raIshe Jesu.
15 And in this confidence I had a mind to come to you before, that you might have a second grace:
Zvino nechivimbo ichi ndaishuva pakutanga kuuya kwamuri, kuti muve nenyasha dzechipiri;
16 And to pass by you into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and by you to be brought on my way towards Judea.
nekupfuura nekwamuri ndichienda kuMakedhonia, nekudzoka kwamuri ndichibva Makedhonia, uye ndiperekedzwe nemwi kuJudhiya.
17 Whereas then I was thus minded, did I use lightness? Or, the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that there should be with me, It is, and It is not?
Naizvozvo ndichifunga saizvozvi, ndakashandisa kusasimbisa moyo here, kana zvandinozvipira, ndinozvipira zvinoenderana nenyama kuti kwandiri zvive hongu, hongu; uye kwete, kwete here?
18 But God is faithful, for our preaching which was to you, was not, It is, and It is not.
Asi Mwari wakatendeka, kuti shoko redu kwamuri harina kuva hongu nakwete.
19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ who was preached among you by us, by me, and Sylvanus, and Timothy, was not, It is and It is not, but, It is, was in him.
Nokuti Mwanakomana waMwari Jesu Kristu uyo wakaparidzwa nesu pakati penyu, neni naSirivhano naTimotio, wakange asiri hongu nakwete, asi maari maiva hongu.
20 For all the promises of God are in him, It is; therefore also by him, amen to God, unto our glory.
Nokuti zvese zvivimbiso zvaMwari, maari ndihongu, nemaari ndiAmeni, rwuve rukudzo rwaMwari kubudikidza nesu.
21 Now he that confirmeth us with you in Christ, and that hath anointed us, is God:
Zvino anosimbisa isu pamwe nemwi muna Kristu, neakatizodza ndiMwari,
22 Who also hath sealed us, and given the pledge of the Spirit in our hearts.
wakatiisawo mucherechedzo isu, akapa rubatso rweMweya mumoyo yedu.
23 But I call God to witness upon my soul, that to spare you, I came not any more to Corinth:
Asi ini ndinodana Mwari kuti ave chapupu pamweya wangu, kuti ndikuregererei handisati ndauya kuKorinde.
24 not because we exercise dominion over your faith: but we are helpers of your joy: for in faith you stand.
Kwete kuti tinotonga parutendo rwenyu, asi tiri vabati pamwe chete vemufaro wenyu; nokuti mumire nerutendo.
