2 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, through the will of God, and Timotheus the brother, to the Assembly of God that is in Corinth, with all the holy ones who are in all Achaia:
Nĩ niĩ Paũlũ, mũtũmwo wa Kristũ Jesũ nĩ ũndũ wa kwenda kwa Ngai, tũrĩ na Timotheo mũrũ wa Ithe witũ, Twatũma marũa maya kũrĩ kanitha wa Ngai ũrĩa ũrĩ Korinitho, o hamwe na andũ othe aamũre arĩa marĩ Akaia guothe:
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
Wega na thayũ kuuma kũrĩ Ngai Ithe witũ o na Mwathani Jesũ Kristũ iroikara na inyuĩ.
3 Blessed [is] God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and God of all comfort,
Ngai na Ithe wa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ arogoocwo, o we Ithe witũ wa tha, na Ngai mwene ũhoro wothe wa kũũmanĩrĩria,
4 who is comforting us in all our tribulation, for our being able to comfort those in any tribulation through the comfort with which we are comforted ourselves by God;
ũrĩa ũtũũmagĩrĩria mathĩĩna-inĩ maitũ mothe, nĩguo na ithuĩ tũhotage kũhooreragia arĩa marĩ na thĩĩna o wothe na ũndũ wa kũũmĩrĩrio kũrĩa ithuĩ ene tũũmĩrĩirio nakuo nĩ Ngai.
5 because, as the sufferings of the Christ abound to us, so through the Christ our comfort also abounds;
Nĩgũkorwo o ta ũrĩa kũnyariirwo gwa Kristũ kũingĩhĩte thĩinĩ witũ-rĩ, ũguo noguo kũũmanĩrĩria gwitũ kũingĩhĩte nĩ ũndũ wa Kristũ.
6 and whether we be in tribulation, [it is] for your comfort and salvation, that is worked in the enduring of the same sufferings that we also suffer; whether we are comforted, [it is] for your comfort and salvation;
Tũngĩthĩĩnio-rĩ, tũthĩĩnagio nĩguo mũũmĩrĩrio na mũhonokio; tũngĩũmĩrĩrio-rĩ, tũũmagĩrĩrio nĩguo na inyuĩ mũgĩe na ũũmĩrĩru, ũrĩa ũciaraga gũkirĩrĩria mũkĩnyariirwo na mathĩĩna o ta marĩa tũthĩĩnagio namo.
7 and our hope [is] steadfast for you, knowing that even as you are partakers of the sufferings—so also of the comfort.
Nakĩo kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro kĩrĩa tũrĩ nakĩo nĩ ũndũ wanyu nĩ kĩrũmu, tondũ nĩtũũĩ atĩ o ta ũrĩa mũgwatanagĩra na ithuĩ maũndũ-inĩ marĩa tũnyariiragwo namo-rĩ, no taguo mũgwatanagĩra na ithuĩ ũhoro-inĩ wa kũũmanĩrĩria o naguo.
8 For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brothers, of our tribulation that happened to us in Asia, that we were exceedingly burdened above [our] power, so that we even despaired of life;
Ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, tũtikwenda mũkorwo mũtooĩ mathĩĩna marĩa twarĩ namo bũrũri wa Asia. Twarĩ hatĩka-inĩ nene mũno makĩria ma ũrĩa tũngĩahotire gũkirĩrĩria, nginya ha ũhoro witũ wa gũtũũra muoyo tũkĩyũũmĩra tha.
9 but we ourselves have had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we may not be trusting on ourselves, but on God, who is raising the dead,
Ti-itherũ, ngoro-inĩ ciitũ twaiguaga tũtuĩrĩirwo gũkua. No kwahanĩkire ũguo nĩguo tũtikae kwĩĩhoka ithuĩ ene, no twĩhoke Ngai, ũrĩa ũriũkagia arĩa akuũ.
10 who delivered us out of so great a death, and delivers, in whom we have hoped that even yet He will deliver;
Nĩwe watũhonokirie ũgwati-inĩ ũcio wahaanaga wa gĩkuũ, na nowe ũgaatũhonokia. We nĩwe twĩrĩgĩrĩire atĩ no egũthiĩ na mbere gũtũhonokia,
11 you also working together for us by your supplication, that the gift through many persons to us, through many, may be thankfully acknowledged for us.
inyuĩ na inyuĩ mũgĩtũteithagia na gũtũhoera. Nao andũ aingĩ nĩmarĩcookagia ngaatho nĩ ũndũ witũ, tondũ wa wega ũcio tũtugĩĩtwo naguo arĩ macookio ma mahooya ma andũ aingĩ.
12 For our glorying is this: the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom, but in the grace of God, we conducted ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you;
Na rĩrĩ, ũndũ ũyũ nĩguo twĩrahagĩra: Thamiri ciitũ nĩcio itũmenyithagia atĩ mĩthiĩre iitũ ĩrĩa tũikaraga nayo gũkũ thĩ, na makĩria ũrĩa tũikaranagia na inyuĩ, nĩ ya ũtheru na ya ũhoro wa ma kuuma kũrĩ Ngai. Tũtiĩkaga ũguo kũringana na ũũgĩ wa thĩ, no nĩ kũringana na wega wa Ngai.
13 for no other things do we write to you, but what you either read or also acknowledge, and I hope that you will also acknowledge to the end,
Nĩgũkorwo tũtiramwandĩkĩra ũndũ o na ũrĩkũ mũtangĩhota gũthoma kana gũtaũkĩrwo nĩguo. Na ngwĩhoka atĩ,
14 according as you also acknowledged us in part, that we are your glory, even as also you [are] ours, in the Day of the Lord Jesus;
o ta ũrĩa mũtũmenyete hanini, nĩmũrĩtaũkĩrwo biũ atĩ no mũhote kwĩraha nĩ ũndũ witũ, o ta ũrĩa tũkeeraha nĩ ũndũ wanyu mũthenya ũrĩa wa Mwathani Jesũ.
15 and in this confidence I was intending to come to you before, that you might have a second favor,
Na tondũ wa ũrĩa ndaarĩ na mwĩhoko wa ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, nĩndabangĩte njũke kwanyu mbere nĩguo mũgunĩke maita meerĩ.
16 and to pass to Macedonia through you, and to come to you again from Macedonia, and to be sent forward by you to Judea.
Ndabangĩte ndĩmũceerere ngĩthiĩ Makedonia, na njokere kũu kwanyu ngiuma Makedonia, na inyuĩ nĩguo mũcooke mũndũme Judea.
17 This, therefore, intending, did I then use the lightness; or the things that I counsel, [did] I counsel according to the flesh, that it may be with me Yes, yes, and No, no?
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ndaabangaga ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, kaĩ ndeekaga ũguo na itherũ? Kana hihi haaragĩria mĩbango yakwa na njĩra ya kĩ-mwĩrĩ nĩguo rĩmwe njugage, “Ĩĩ, ĩĩ,” na rĩrĩa rĩngĩ ngoiga “Aca, aca”?
18 And God [is] faithful, that our word to you did not become Yes and No,
No ti-itherũ, o ta ũrĩa Ngai arĩ mwĩhokeku-rĩ, ndũmĩrĩri iitũ kũrĩ inyuĩ ti “Ĩĩ” na rĩngĩ “Aca.”
19 for the Son of God, Jesus Christ, having been preached through us among you—through me and Silvanus and Timotheus—did not become Yes and No, but in Him it has become Yes;
Nĩgũkorwo Mũrũ wa Ngai, Jesũ Kristũ, ũrĩa mwahunjĩirio ũhoro wake nĩ niĩ, na Sila, na Timotheo, ũhoro wake ndwarĩ wa kuuga, “Ĩĩ” ũgacooka ũkoiga “Aca,” no thĩinĩ wake gũtũũraga o “Ĩĩ.”
20 for as many as [are] promises of God, in Him [are] the Yes, and in Him the Amen, for glory to God through us;
Nĩgũkorwo ciĩranĩro cia Ngai, o na cingĩhĩte atĩa-rĩ, ciothe nĩ “Ĩĩ” thĩinĩ wa Kristũ. Na nĩ ũndũ ũcio thĩinĩ wake, ithuĩ tũkoigaga “Ameni” nĩgeetha Ngai agoocagwo.
21 and He who is confirming you with us into Christ, and anointed us, [is] God,
Na rĩrĩ, Ngai nĩwe ũtũmaga ithuĩ hamwe na inyuĩ twĩhaande wega thĩinĩ wa Kristũ. Nĩwe watũitĩrĩirie maguta,
22 who also sealed us, and gave the deposit of the Spirit in our hearts.
na agĩtwĩkĩra rũũri rwa kuonania atĩ tũrĩ ake, na agĩtũhe Roho wake thĩinĩ wa ngoro ciitũ arĩ ta mwĩhoko wa kũrũgamĩrĩra maũndũ marĩa magooka.
23 And I call on God for a witness on my soul, that sparing you, I did not come to Corinth yet;
Ngai nĩwe mũira wakwa, na nĩoĩ atĩ niĩ ndaagire gũcooka Korinitho nĩ ũndũ wa kũmũcaaĩra.
24 not that we are lords over your faith, but we are workers together with your joy, for by faith you stand.
Ũguo ti kuuga atĩ nĩtũramwatha ũhoro-inĩ wa wĩtĩkio wanyu, no nĩ atĩ tũrutithanagia wĩra na inyuĩ nĩgeetha mũkenage, tondũ mũtũũrĩte mwĩhaandĩte wega nĩ ũndũ wa wĩtĩkio wanyu.
