2 Corinthians 11
1 I could wish that you would put up with a little of my foolishness, but indeed you already are.
Mbanga ngamkangamili padebe, hati ngati nene namuyimu! Ena mkangamala padebe.
2 For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy, because I betrothed you to one man to present you to Christ as a pure virgin.
Nene nikuvawonela wihu nambu wihu wa Chapanga, muni nyenye ndi ngati msikana kamwali mwetilagini kumgega ndava ya mgosi mmonga ndu Kilisitu.
3 But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve with his cunning, so your minds may be corrupted from the integrity that is in Christ.
Nambu niyogopa kuvya ngati liyoka lila mukuchenjela kwaki lamkongili Eva, akotoka kuvayoka maholo ginu, na kuleka kujiwusa kwinu muchakaka kwa Kilisitu.
4 For if someone comes and preaches another ‘Jesus’ whom we did not preach, or you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you easily put up with it.
Muni mundu yoyoha mweibwela na kumkokosa Yesu mweavi chingi na yula mwetimkokosa, nikuvakangasa ndava nyenye mukumpokela kwa mawoko gavili, amala muyidikila mpungu amala lilovi la bwina lingi neju na lila lemwapokili kuhuma kwitu!
5 Now I consider that I am not at all inferior to the very best apostles.
Kwali ngati nene namdebe kuliku venavo vevakujikemela vene “Vamitumi vakulu”
6 Though I may not be a trained speaker, I do have knowledge—but we have been fully manifested to you in all things.
Pangi nene nimanyili lepi kujova bwina. Nambu umanya nivii nawu, lijambu lenili tililangisi hotohoto kwinu, kila pandu na kila lukumbi.
7 Or did I commit a sin in humbling self so that you might be exalted, in that I proclaimed God's Gospel to you free of charge?
Nene nakokwisi kwinu Lilovi la Bwina ga Chapanga changali kugana luhuna, najihelisi ndava ya kuvakwiha nyenye. Wu, nakitili uhakau?
8 I ‘robbed’ other congregations, receiving support from them so as to serve you,
Panahengili lihengu pagati yinu maganu gangu napewili utangatila kuhuma mumisambi yingi ya vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu. Nihotola kujova kuvya navanyagili vindu vyavi muni nihotola kuvahengele lihengu nyenye.
9 and when I was with you and in need, I did not burden anyone; because the brothers who came from Macedonia supplied my need. Yes, I kept myself from being a burden to you in anything, and will keep on.
Panakavili na nyenye namng'aili lepi mundu yeyoha panaganili maganu, valongo vevahumili Makedonia vaniletili kila chindu chenaganili. Natumili luhala neju nikotoka kumng'aha mundu yeyoha yula muni nipata vindu venigana mu njila yoyoha yila, ndi yati niyendelela kukita mewa.
10 The truth of Christ is in me: this boasting will not be silenced in me in the regions of Achaia.
Ngati chakaka yila ya Kilisitu cheyivili mugati yangu, kawaka mundu yoyoha mweihotola kunibesa kumekela lijambu lenilo popoha pamulima wa Akaya.
11 Why? Because I do not love you? God knows!
Ndava kyani nijova chenicho? Ndava muni nivaganili lepi nyenye? Chapanga amanyili kuvya nivaganili!
12 Further, I will keep on doing what I do in order to cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be considered equal with us in the things of which they boast.
Yati niyendelela kukita ngati chanikita hinu, muni nikotoka kuvapela fwasi vala vevakujikemela vamitumi vakulu, vevilonda fwasi ya kumekela kuvya vikita lihengu ngati tete.
13 Such men are really false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into ‘apostles’ of Christ.
Muni, venavo ndi vamitumi vaudese, vikita lihengu la udese vevajikita ngati vamitumi va chakaka va Kilisitu.
14 And no wonder, because Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.
Lijambu la kukangasa lepi, muni hati Setani mwene akujikita kuvya mtumu wa kunani wa lumuli!
15 So it is no great thing if his servants also masquerade as ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.
Hinu ndi lijambu lepi la kukangasa kuvya na vanalihengu va Setani navene vakujikita kuvya vanalihengu va mambu gabwina palongolo ya Chapanga. Mwishu wavi yati vipata uhamula kulandana na matendu gavi.
16 Again I say, let no one think me a fool. But should anyone do so, at least receive me as a fool, that I also may boast a little bit.
Nijova kavili. Mundu akotoka kuniholalela kuvya namyimu, nambu ngati muhomela chenicho, hinu muniyidakila ngati namyimu, muni na nene nivya chindu chakujimekela padebe.
17 What I am going to say I do not say according to the Lord, but as though foolishly, in this confident boasting.
Chanijova hinu lepi chila chalagizi BAMBU, kuvala lijambu lenili la kumekela, nijova ndu kujova mundu muyimu.
18 Since many are boasting according to the flesh, I will too
Ndava muni vamahele vimeka ngati vandu va pamulima chevimeka, na nene mewa yati nimeka.
19 (for you put up with fools gladly, being so wise yourselves!).
Nyenye ndi muhololela muvi na luhala, ndi mana mukuvasindimalila hati vayimu!
20 In fact, you even put up with someone who enslaves you, who ‘devours’ you, who takes advantage, who exalts himself, who beats on your face!
Mukumsindimalisa hati mundu mweakuvakita nyenye vavanda, mundu mweakuvanyaga vindu vinu, mweakuvahindalila, mweakuvavevesa na kuvatova kumihu!
21 Is it disrespectful to say that we were ‘weak’? In whatever anyone is bold (I speak foolishly), I am bold also.
Nikola soni kujova, tavi lepi na makakala ga kuhenga aga. Nambu ngati avi mundu yoyoha mweihotola kumeka, nijova ngati mundu namyimu, mewawa nene nijova chakaka yati nimeka.
22 Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they descendants of Abraham? So am I.
Vandu vala va ku Ebulania? Na nene mewa. Wu, vene ndi Vaisilaeli? Na nene mewa. Wu, vene ndi vachiveleku va Ibulahimu? Na nene mewa.
23 Are they ministers of Christ? (I'm being irrational) I am more: in labors more abundantly, in beatings beyond count, in prison more frequently, in ‘deaths’ often—
Vene ndi vanalihengu va Kilisitu? Na nene mewa, nijova ago chilupengu. Nene ndi muhengaji neju wa Kilisitu kuliku vene. Nene nihengi lihengu lelinonopa neju, nitamili muchifungu pamahele, nitoviwi pamahele neju na navili papipi kufwa pamahele.
24 five times from the Jews I received the ‘forty lashes minus one’;
Mala mhanu natoviwi na ndomondo alobaini yipungula yimonga na Vayawudi.
25 three times I was beaten with rods; once I was stoned; three times I was shipwrecked (I spent twenty-four hours in the open sea)—
Natoviwi na mchapilu mala zidatu, natoviwi maganga mala yimonga. Mala yidatu nadenyikiwi na watu munyanja, na mwenumo nagonili lepi mbaka lukela na kuwela muhi woha.
26 in frequent journeys, in danger from rivers, in danger from robbers, in danger from my countrymen, in danger from Gentiles, in danger in cities, in danger in wildernesses, in danger in the sea, in danger among false brothers;
Pamahele mulugendu lwangu, nisumwiki mumifuleni kumema manji, kuhuma muvanyagaji vakolonjinji vayangu, kuhuma kwa vandu vangali Vayawudi. Na kuhuma kumujini, kulugangatu na munyanja na kuhuma kwa valongo vaudese.
27 in toil and hardship, in many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, in frequent fastings, in cold and nakedness—
Nikitili lihengu na kung'ahika, nigonili lepi pamahele ndava ya lihengu, kuni nivii na njala na njota. Pamahele nitamii na njala na kutama changali nyula za kunigubika pambepu.
28 quite apart from the other things, my daily disturbances, my concern for all the congregations.
Pamonga na gangi gamahele, mewa kila ligono niholela misambi ya vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu voha.
29 Who is weak, and I do not feel it? Who is caused to stumble, and I do not burn with indignation?
Ngati mundu yoyoha atotokili mewawa na nene nitotokili na mundu yoyoha akalongoswa mukubuda, mewa nene niviniswa mtima.
30 Well, if I must boast, I will boast of the things that concern my weakness.
Yikaniganayi kumeka, ndi yati nimekela kutotokela kwangu.
31 The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying. (aiōn g165)
Chapanga Dadi wa BAMBU Yesu, liina laki lilumbiwa magono goha. Mwene amanyili kuvya nijova lepi udese. (aiōn g165)
32 In Damascus the governor under King Aretas was guarding the city of the Damascenes, wanting to arrest me;
Panakavi ku Damasko, mkulu wa muji, mwavili pahi ya nkosi Aleta, avikii ulonda pamuji wa Damasko muni anikamula.
33 but I was lowered in a basket through a window in the wall and escaped from his hands.
Nambu vakanivika mulidengu livaha, na kunihelesa kuvala kupitila fwasi yeyavi muluwumba lwa muji, naholwiti mumawoko gaki.
