< 2 Corinthians 4 >
1 Therefore having this ministry, as we have obtained mercy, we faint not;
Nipele kwa chanasa cha Akunnungu atupele masengo ga, kwaligongo lyo ngatukupwa ntima.
2 but we lay aside the hidden things of disgrace, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but in the manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every conscience of men, before God.
Tuilesile indu yose ya mitemela ni ya soni, ngatukunlambusya mundu jwalijose namuno kulilyungasya liloŵe lya Akunnungu, nambo kwakusala usyene pelanga chikwatende ŵandu amanyilile mmitima jao yatutite kuŵa paujo pa Akunnungu.
3 But if indeed our gospel is hidden, it is hidden with those who are lost:
Nambo iwaga Ngani Jambone jitukujilalichila uwe jiunichikwe, jele jiunichikwe kwa ŵandu ŵakonasika pe.
4 in whom the god of this age has blinded the minds of those who believe not, in order that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, may not shine on them. (aiōn )
Ni ŵelewo ngakukulupilila pakuŵa nganisyo syao syetaje chipi ni achisoka, ŵaali nnungu ŵa pachilambo pano, kuti akakombola kuliwona lilanguka lya Ngani Jambone ja ukulu wa Kilisito, ŵaali chisau ni Akunnungu yatite kuŵa. (aiōn )
5 For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.
Pakuŵa ngatukulalichila ngani syetu twachinsyene nambo tukunlalichila Che Yesu Kilisito ŵaali Ambuje, noweji tuli achikapolo ŵenu kwaligongo li Che Yesu Kilisito.
6 Because God is the one, having said; Out of the darkness the light shall shine, which shone in our hearts, to the enlightenment of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.
Akunnungu ŵalaŵala uŵasasile kuti, “Lilanguka lilanguchisye mu chipi,” ŵawowo ni ŵalanguchisye mitima jetu, atupele lilanguka lya umanyilisi wa ukulu wa Akunnungu waukung'alima ku meeso kwa Kilisito.
7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, in order that the excellency of the power, may be of God, and not of us;
Nambo uwe ŵatukwete mbiko ji tuli mpela yombo ya litaka yaiŵichikwe indu ya mmbumu nkati mwakwe, pakuti gawoneche machili gamakulungwa go, gakutyochela kwa Akunnungu ngaŵa kutyochela kukwetu twachinsyene.
8 in everything being troubled, but not in difficulties incorrigible; being at a loss, but not utterly at a loss;
Uweji tukupata masausyo gakupisyangana nambo ngatukulepela. Tukukola lipamba nambo ngatukupwa mitima.
9 being persecuted, but not forsaken; being cast down, but not destroyed;
Tukulagaswa nambo ngatukulekwa pangali ukamuchisyo. Namuno tugwisiswe nambo ngatukujonasika.
10 always bearing about the dying of Jesus in our body, in order that the life of Jesus may also be made manifest in our bodies.
Moŵa gose tukwenda ni chiwa chi Che Yesu pa iilu yetu, kuti umi u Che Yesu uwoneche iyoyo mu iilu yetu.
11 For we while living are always being delivered up to death for the sake of Jesus, in order that the life of Jesus may be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
Pakuŵa uweji ŵatuli ŵajumi tukuulajikwa moŵa gose kwaligongo lyakwatumichila Che Yesu, kuti umi wao uwoneche mu iilu yetu yaikuwa.
12 So that death works in us, but life in you.
Kwapele uwe tuli chile namose kuwa kwaligongo lyakunlalichila ŵanyamwe kuti ŵanyamwe mpate umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi.
13 But having the same spirit of faith, according to that which has been written, I believed, therefore I also spoke; and we believe, therefore we also speak;
Malembelo ga Akunnungu gakuti, “Nakulupilile ni kwa ligongo lyo naŵechete.” Uwe nowe tukwete ntima uwowo wa chikulupi, tukukulupilila kwayele tukuŵecheta,
14 knowing that the one having raised up the Lord Jesus will also raise us along with Jesus, and present us with you.
pakuŵa tukuimanyilila kwaisyene kuti Akunnungu ni uŵansyusisye Ambuje Che Yesu, chatususye noweji pamo ni Ambuje Che Yesu ni kutuŵika paujo pao pamo ni ŵanyamwe.
15 For all things are for your sakes, in order that the grace, overflowing with thanksgiving through many, may abound unto the glory of God.
Yele yose itendekwe kwa liwamba lyenu kuti ntuuka wa Akunnungu paukwaichilila ŵandu achajinji, chiŵatende ŵatogolele kwannope Akunnungu, ni kwakusya Akunnungu.
16 Therefore we faint not; but if indeed our external man perishes, yet our internal man is renewed day by day.
Kwapele ngatukupwa mitima, namuno iilu yetu ikuwisala nambo mbumu syetu munkati mwetu sikutendekwa syasambano moŵa gose.
17 For the light burden of our affliction, which is evanescent, is working out for us an eternal weight of glory according to hyperbole unto hyperbole; (aiōnios )
Kulaga kwetu kuli kwamwana sooni kuli kwa katema kakajipi nambo kukutupa ukulu waukupunda nnope, ukulu wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi wauli wambone kupunda kulaga kwatuli nako. (aiōnios )
18 we not looking at the things which are visible, but the things which are invisible; for the visible things are temporary, but the invisible things are eternal. (aiōnios )
Tukailolela yaikuwoneka nambo tuilolele yangaikuwoneka. Pakuŵa aila yaikuwoneka ili ya katema kakajipi nambo yangaikuwoneka ili ya moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōnios )
