2 Corinthians 12
1 It behooves me to glory, indeed it is not profitable, I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
Hanulitumbiri, tembera hapeni mpati shintu, kumbiti vinu hantakuli galii gamoniti na galii gakang'ubutuliti Mtuwa.
2 I knew a man in Christ, fourteen years ago, whether in the body, I know not; whether out of the body, I know not, such a one having been caught up even to the third heaven.
Nummana muntu yumu yakamwaminiti Kristu, ndomweni vinja lilongu na msheshi vyavipititi kanyasulitwi kugenda mpindi ya ntatu. Wayawudi waaminiti kuweri na mpindi ntatu ya ntatu Paradisu. Nuvimana ndiri handa kaweriti aku kwa nshimba ama kwa rohu, Mlungu gweka kavimana.
3 And I knew such a man, whether in the body, or out of the body, I know not; God knows,
Na nuvimana kuwera muntu ayu kanyasulitwi kugenda Paradisu, handa kaweriti aku kwa nshimba ama kwa rohu, neni nuvimana ndiri kumbiti Mlungu kavimana.
4 that he was caught up to Paradise, and heard unutterable words, which it is impossible for a man to speak.
Aku kapikinira vitwatira vyavitakulitwi ndiri, vitwatira avi vibelwa muntu kavitakuli.
5 Concerning such a one I will glory: but concerning myself I will not glory, except in my infirmities.
Su, hanulitumbiri muntu gwa ntambu ayi, kumbiti hapeni nulitumbiri namweni, tembera hanulitumbiri kwajili ya legilegi yaneni.
6 For if I shall wish to glory, I will not be a fool; for I speak the truth: but I fear, lest some one may consider with reference to me above what he sees me, or hears from me.
Handa menfiri kulitumba menweri ndiri Mzigizigi, toziya mentakuli unakaka hera. Kumbiti hapeni nulitumbi, toziya nfira ndiri muntu kamoni neni namkulu kuliku galii gakagawona na kupikinira kulawa kwaneni.
7 And that I may not be exalted by the abundance of revelations, a thorn was given unto me in the flesh, the messenger of Satan that he may buffet me, in order that I may not be exalted.
Kumbiti, nfiru vitwatira avi vikulu vyang'ubutuliliti navindenda namwera nanamtiti, mpananitwi utama mnshimba handa lusomi, mjumbi gwa Shetani yakangoma, nanalitumba ng'anji.
8 Three times I called on the Lord concerning this, that it may depart from me.
Numuluwiti Mtuwa mala ntatu, shitwatira ashi su shindawi.
9 And he said to me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for power is made perfect in weakness. Therefore most delightfully I will glory the more in my infirmities, in order that the power of Christ may abide on me.
Kumbiti kang'ambiriti, “Manemu gangu gakutosha, toziya makakala gangu ndo makulu nentu shipindi gwenga gwa legilegi.” Nana nemeru nentu kulitumbira legilegi ya neni, su ulolera wa makakala ga Kristu gaweri paneni.
10 Therefore I delight in infirmities, in insults, in difficulties, in persecutions, and in tight places, for Christ's sake: for when I am without strength, then I am dynamite.
Su toziya ya Kristu, nemelera pahwera legilegi, na panigilangwa na pantabika na kuwera na tabu. Toziya pahwera legilegi, ndo pahwera na likakala.
11 I have become a fool: you did compel me. For I ought to be commended by you: for I am not inferior to the very chief of the apostles, if indeed I am nothing.
Nwera gambira mzigizigi, kumbiti mwenga mundazimisha hweri hangu. Mwenga ndo memfiruwi kunzyuma neni. Tembera neni nashintu ndiri kwantambu yoseri, neni namdidiki ndiri kuliku awa “wantumintumi wakulu.”
12 For indeed the signs of the apostleship are wrought in me in all patience, in miracles and in wonders and in dynamites.
Mauzauza na makangashu galanguziya kuwera neni nantumintumi, gagatendikiti pakati pa mwenga kwa uhepelera woseri.
13 For what is that in which you are inferior to other churches, except that I did not burden you? forgive me this wrong.
Hashi, mpungikiti shishi nentu kuliku vipinga vyamonga vya wantu yawamjimira Yesu, ira neni nuwagaziyani ndiri kupata utanga wenu? Shondi shondi nyagu mundekiziyi kwa shanuwakoselerani!
14 Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not spare: for I do not seek yours, but you. For the children ought not to lay up treasures for the parents, but the parents for the children,
Mloli, vinu ayi ndo mala ya ntatu nakala kwiza kwa mwenga kuwatyangira, na hapeni nuwagaziyi. Toziya shansakula lunda zyenu ndiri, kumbiti maweni mwenga. Ntambu iraayi, wana wawatulira ndiri walelwa wawu uhara, kumbiti walelwa ndo yawawatulira wananguta wawu.
15 But I will most delightfully spend and be spent for your souls. If the more abundantly I love you am I loved the less?
Neni nemera nentu kutumiya kila shintu shanweriti nashu, na ata kulilaviya namweni kwa kuwatanga mwenga. Hashi, hamunfiri katepu toziya neni nuwafira ng'anji mwenga?
16 But let it he so, I did not burden you; but, being crafty, I caught you with guile.
Su, hamjimili kuwera neni nweriti ndiri shisanka kwa mwenga. Kumbiti muntu gwingi hakalongi kuwera neni nkalamuka, na nuwagomiziyiti kwa upayira!
17 Which one of those whom I sent unto you, did I fleece you through him?
Hashi, neni nuwapokani mwenga kupitira mjumbi yoseri yanumtumiti kwa mwenga?
18 I called Titus, and sent the brother along with him: whether did Titus defraud you? did we not walk by the same Spirit? did we not in the same tracks?
Neni numuluwiti Titu, numtumiti kizi kwa mwenga pamuhera na mlongu myetu yumonga. Hashi, Titu kawapokiti mwenga vintu vyenu? Hashi, muvimana ndiri kuwera twenga tulonguziwa na nfiru iraa ilii, na mgenderanu gwetu ndo gumu?
19 For a long time you were thinking that I am apologizing to you. We speak before God in Christ; but all things, beloved, are for your edification.
Pamonga mulihola kuwera shipindi shoseri twankujiteteya twaweni kulongolu kwa mwenga. Ndala! Tutakula vitwatira avi kulongolu kwa Mlungu patulikolerana na Kristu. Waganja wangu, vitwatira vyatutenda, vitendeka kuwatanga mwenga muweri wagangamala.
20 For I fear lest, having come, I may not find you as I wish, and may not be found by you as you wish; lest perhaps strife, jealousy, animosities, selfseekings, calumniations, eavesdroppings, inflations, outfallings, are among you;
Nankutira, pamonga paniza kwa mwenga hanuwawoni muntambu yanfira ndiri, na mwenga hamumoni neni muntambu yingi yamfira mwenga. Ntira pamonga neni hamoni ndewu na weya, mapweperanu na upayira na malingu, na maya na malekaniru na fuju pakati penu.
21 lest, I again having come, my God will humble me before you, and I will mourn over many of those having previously committed sins, and not having repented over the uncleanness and the fornication and debauchery which they have done.
Neni ntira pamonga paniza kayi Mlungu gwangu hakantendi hweri mnanagala kulongolu kwa mwenga, na neni handayi toziya ya wantu wavuwa yawatenditi vidoda kumbiti waleka ndiri udoda yawautenditi, matamata zyawu zidoda na uhumba yawautenditi.
