2 Corinthians 7
1 Having, then, these promises, beloved, may we cleanse ourselves from every defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting sanctification in the fear of God;
Balingami na ngai, lokola tozali na bilaka ya lolenge oyo, tomipetolaka na nyonso oyo ekomisaka nzoto mpe molimo mbindo, mpo na kotambola na bomoi ya bosantu, kati na kotosa Nzambe.
2 receive us; no one did we wrong; no one did we ruin; no one did we defraud;
Bopesa biso esika kati na mitema na bino! Tosalaki moto moko te mabe, tobebisaki moto moko te, tokosaki moto moko te mpo na kobotola ye biloko.
3 I do not say [it] to condemn you, for I have said before that you are in our hearts to die together and to live together;
Nalobi bongo te mpo ete bosalaki ngai mabe. Nasilaki koyebisa bino ete bozali na esika ya motuya kati na mitema na biso, ezala mpo na kokufa to mpo na kozala na bomoi elongo na bino.
4 great [is] my freedom of speech to you, great my glory on your behalf; I have been filled with the comfort, I hyper-abound with the joy on all our tribulation,
Nalobaki na tina na bino na bosembo monene, mpe namikumisaka makasi na tina na bino. Kati na pasi na biso nyonso, nalendisamaki makasi, mpe natondi na esengo.
5 for we also, having come to Macedonia, our flesh has had no relaxation, but on every side we are in tribulation: fightings outside, fears within;
Pamba te, tango kaka tokomaki na Masedwane, tozwaki ata tango ya kopema te; tokutanaki na pasi ya lolenge nyonso: bitumba na libanda, mpe bobangi kati na mitema na biso.
6 but He who is comforting the cast-down—God—He comforted us in the coming of Titus;
Kasi Nzambe oyo abondisaka mitema ya bato oyo batutami alendisaki biso na nzela ya boyei ya Tito.
7 and not only in his coming, but also in the comfort with which he was comforted over you, declaring to us your longing desire, your lamentation, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced the more,
Tolendisamaki na nzela ya boyei ya Tito kaka te, kasi mpe na nzela ya kobondisama oyo ye Tito azwaki epai na bino. Atalisaki biso posa makasi oyo bozali na yango ya komona ngai, kolela na bino, mpe komipesa na bino mpo na ngai. Mpe nyonso wana esalaki ete esengo na ngai ebakisama lisusu makasi.
8 because even if I made you sorry in the letter, I do not regret—if even I regretted—for I perceive that the letter, even if for an hour, made you sorry.
Yango wana, soki nayokisaki bino mawa na nzela ya mokanda na ngai, ezali kosala ngai pasi te kati na motema na ngai. Solo, esalaki ngai nanu pasi na motema, na kotala ndenge eyokisaki bino mawa mpo na mwa tango moke.
9 I now rejoice, not that you were made sorry, but that you were made sorry to conversion, for you were made sorry toward God, that you might receive damage from us in nothing;
Kasi sik’oyo, nazali kosepela: ezali te mpo boyokaki mawa, kasi mpo ete mawa yango ememaki bino na kobongola mitema. Pamba te mawa na bino ezalaki malamu na miso ya Nzambe; mpe na bongo, tosalaki bino mabe te.
10 for sorrow toward God works conversion to salvation without regret, and the sorrow of the world works death,
Mawa oyo ewutaka na mokano ya Nzambe ememaka moto na kobongola motema, mpe kobongola motema ememaka na lobiko, mpe bayokelaka yango pasi na motema te. Kasi mawa oyo ewutaka na baposa ya mokili ememaka na kufa.
11 for behold, this same thing—your being made sorry toward God—how much diligence it works in you! But defense, but displeasure, but fear, but longing desire, but zeal, but revenge; in everything you approved yourselves to be pure in the matter.
Botala makambo oyo mawa ya malamu na miso ya Nzambe ememaki kati na bino: bolingo, molende mpo na kolimbisana, koboya mabe, kotosa, posa makasi ya komona ngai, komipesa na mosala, molende ya kopamela mabe. Na nyonso, bolakisaki penza ete bosalaki mabe te kati na likambo oyo.
12 If, then, I also wrote to you—not for his cause who did wrong, nor for his cause who suffered wrong, but for our diligence in your behalf being revealed to you before God—
Boye, soki nakomelaki bino, ezalaki te likolo na moto oyo asalaki mabe to likolo na moto oyo basalaki mabe, kasi ezalaki mpo ete bolingo na bino mpo na biso etalisama kati na bino liboso ya Nzambe.
13 because of this we have been comforted in your comfort, and more abundantly the more we rejoiced in the joy of Titus, that his spirit has been refreshed from you all;
Yango wana, tobondisamaki na nzela ya makambo oyo nyonso. Mpe esengo makasi ebakisamaki na kobondisama na biso na kotala esengo ya Tito, pamba te bino nyonso bokitisaki ye motema.
14 because if I have boasted anything to him in your behalf, I was not put to shame; but as we spoke to you all things in truth, so also our boasting before Titus became truth,
Namikumisaki epai na ye na tina na bino mpe nakoyokela yango soni te, pamba te ndenge kaka makambo nyonso oyo tolobaki na bino ezali ya solo, ndenge mpe kaka lokumu oyo totombolaki na tina na bino epai ya Tito ezali penza ya solo.
15 and his yearnings are more abundantly toward you, remembering the obedience of you all, how you received him with fear and trembling;
Mpe bolingo na ye mpo na bino nyonso ekomaka lisusu monene tango akanisaka botosi na bino nyonso mpe ndenge boyambaki ye na kobanga mpe na kolenga.
16 I rejoice, therefore, that in everything I have courage in you.
Nazali na esengo ya kotiela bino motema na makambo nyonso.
