2 Corinthians 13
1 I come to you this third time; on the mouth of two or three witnesses will every saying be established;
Ubu ebulwendo bwakame bwacitatu kwisa uko. Mabala a Lesa alambangeti, “Mulandu uliwonse ushininkishiwe ne bakamboni babili nambi batatu.”
2 I have said before, and I say [it] before, as being present, the second time, and being absent, now, I write to those having sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again, I will not spare,
Mpondalesa uko mubulwendo bwakame bwacibili ndalamucenjesha kwambeti ninkape cisubulo uliyense labulunga kuleka bwipishi. Nambi ndikuno kutali nenjamwe nsombi ndamucenjeshenga cimocimo.
3 since you seek a proof of the Christ speaking in me, who is not weak to you, but is powerful in you,
Nimukabe nebukamboni bwesulila mbomulayandanga kwishibeti Klistu lambanga kupitila muli njame. Nsombi ukute ngofu shakendi pakati penu!
4 for even if He was crucified from weakness, yet He lives from the power of God; for we also are weak in Him, but we will live with Him from the power of God toward you.
Nambi walaboneketi wabula ngofu mpwalikupopwa pa lusanda, nsombi cino cindi nimuyumi kupitila mungofu sha Lesa. Neco nenjafwe tukute tuliya ngofu muli endiye, nsombi nitukabe ne buyumi pamo nendiye kupitila mungofu sha Lesa, pakusebensa ncito yetu pakati penu.
5 Try yourselves, if you are in the faith; prove yourselves; do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you, if you are not disapproved of in some respect?
Kamulicencetani mubone namuli mu lushomo. Panyuma pa kulicenceta mobene nimuboneti Klistu uli muli njamwe. Nomba na mucaneti Klistu nkalipo mulinjamwe, mwishibeti mulalilwa.
6 And I hope that you will know that we are not disapproved of;
Nomba ndashometi mucisheti ntafwe beshikwalilwa sobwe.
7 and I pray before God that you do no evil, not that we may appear approved, but that you may do that which is right, and we may be as disapproved;
Tulapailinga kuli Lesa kwambeti mucileke kwinsa byaipa, nteko kwambeti twapaileco afwe tuboneketi balulama sobwe, nsombi nikwambeti amwe mwinse caina, nambi afwe tucaniketi tulalilwanga.
8 for we are not able to do anything against the truth, but for the truth;
Twense katutalwananga ne cancine ncine sobwe, nsombi katucikonkelanga.
9 for we rejoice when we may be weak, but you may be powerful; and we also pray for this—your perfection!
Twakondwa nambi tuliya ngofu, nsombi amwe mukute ngofu. Neco tulapailingeti mube bakwana mulushomo.
10 Because of this, these things—being absent—I write, that being present, I may not treat [any] sharply, according to the authority that the LORD gave me for building up, and not for casting down.
Ndalembelengalimo ibi bintu kantananjisa uko kwambeti kantakaboneka kuba wayuma moyo. Ndakasebenseshenga ngofu shakame sha bwendeleshi nshendalapewa ne Mwami. Ndalapewa ishi ngofu shabwendeleshi kwambeti ndimunyafwe ntesho shakumulyataula sobwe.
11 From now on, brothers, rejoice; be made perfect, be comforted, be of the same mind, be at peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.
Pacino cindi mobanse bame ndeti kamutangalani, kamwinsani byaina, kamusamalani mbyendamwambili. Nyumfwanani ne kwikala mulumuno mwense. Lesa walumuno ne lusuno abe nenjamwe.
12 Greet one another in a holy kiss.
Panani mitende nekushonshotana kwaswepa.
13 All the holy ones greet you.
Bantu bonse ba Lesa balamupanga mitende Ndapailinga ndeti Mwami Yesu Klistu amubele nkumbo nekumuleleka.
14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, [is] with you all! Amen.
Inkumbo sha Mwami Yesu Klistu ne lusuno lwa Lesa kayi ne Mushimu Uswepa bibe nenjamwe mwense.
