2 Corinthians 2
1 For I determined this for myself, that I would not come to you again in sorrow.
Kotero ndinatsimikiza maganizo anga kuti ndisachitenso ulendo wina owawa wobwera kwanuko.
2 For if I make you sorry, then who will make me glad but he who is made sorry by me?
Pakuti ngati ndikumvetsani chisoni, kodi angandisangalatse ndani, kupatula inuyo amene ndakumvetsani chisoni?
3 And I wrote this very thing, so that, when I came, I would not have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy would be shared by all of you.
Nʼchifukwa chake ndinakulemberani monga ndinachitiramo kuti nditabwera kwanuko ndisadzamve chisoni ndi anthu oyenera kundisangalatsa. Ndinali ndi chikhulupiriro ndi inu nonse kuti inuyo mukakhala ndi chimwemwe poona kuti inenso ndili ndi chimwemwe.
4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you should be made sorry, but that you might know the love that I have so abundantly for you.
Pakuti ndinakulemberani kalata ija ndili wopsinjika ndi wowawidwa mtima kwambiri ndi kutuluka misozi yambiri, osati pofuna kukumvetsani chisoni koma kuti ndikudziwitseni kuti ndimakukondani kwambiri.
5 But if any has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow, not to me, but in part (that I not press too heavily) to you all.
Koma ngati wina wamvetsa chisoni, sanamvetse chisoni ine ndekha, koma koposa mosawonjezera wakhumudwitsa nonsenu, kunenatu mosawonjezera.
6 Sufficient to such a one is this punishment which was inflicted by the many;
Chilango chimene ambiri a inu mwamupatsa munthu ameneyu nʼchokwanira.
7 so that on the contrary you should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his excessive sorrow.
Mʼmalo mwake tsono, muyenera kumukhululukira ndi kumulimbikitsa mtima kuti asamve chisoni choposa muyeso, angataye mtima.
8 Therefore I urge you to confirm your love toward him.
Choncho ndikukupemphani kuti mutsimikizire chikondi chanu pa iye.
9 For to this end I also wrote, that I might know the proof of you, whether you are obedient in all things.
Cholinga china chimene ndinakulemberani kalata ija chinali chofuna kukuonani ngati mudzandimvera pa zonse.
10 Now I also forgive whomever you forgive anything. For if indeed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Christ,
Aliyense amene mumukhululukire, inenso ndimukhululukira. Ndipo ndikakhululukira, ngati pali kanthu koti ndikhululukire, ndiye kuti ndakhululuka chifukwa cha inu pamaso pa Khristu,
11 that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his schemes.
kupewa kuti Satana angapezere mpata pa ife, pajatu timadziwa machenjerero ake.
12 Now when I came to Troas for the Good News of Christ, and when a door was opened to me in the Lord,
Tsono nditafika ku Trowa kuti ndilalikire Uthenga Wabwino wa Khristu, nʼkupeza kuti Ambuye anditsekulira khomo,
13 I had no relief for my spirit, because I did not find Titus, my brother, but taking my leave of them, I went out into Macedonia.
ndinasowa mtendere mu mtima mwanga, chifukwa sindinapezeko mʼbale wanga Tito. Choncho ndinatsanzikana ndi anthu kumeneko nʼkupita ku Makedoniya.
14 Now thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and reveals through us the sweet aroma of his knowledge in every place.
Koma tithokoze Mulungu amene amatitsogolera nthawi zonse monga ogwidwa ku nkhondo a Khristu pa chipambano chake. Tsono amatigwiritsa ntchito yofalitsa ponseponse nzeru zodziwira Khristu ngati fungo labwino.
15 For we are a sweet aroma of Christ to God, in those who are saved, and in those who perish;
Pakuti kwa Mulungu ndife fungo labwino la Khristu pakati pa iwo amene akupulumutsidwa ndi amene akuwonongeka.
16 to the one a stench from death to death; to the other a sweet aroma from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things?
Kwa amene akuwonongeka ndife fungo la imfa, limawapha. Ndipo kwa amene akupulumuka ndife fungo lamoyo, limawapatsa moyo. Ndani angayithe ntchito yotereyi?
17 For we are not, like so many, peddling the word of God. But as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, we speak in Christ.
Kusiyana ndi ena ambiri, ife sitilalikira Mawu a Mulungu kuti tipeza phindu. Mʼmalo mwake, ife mwa Khristu timayankhula pamaso pa Mulungu moona mtima, monga anthu otumidwa ndi Mulungu.
