2 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus, through the will of God, and Timothy the brother, —unto the assembly of God which is in Corinth, together with all the saints who are in the whole of Achaia:
Uneji che Paolo nduna ju Che Yesu Kilisito kwa usache wa Akunnungu, ndili pamo ni nlongo njetu che Timoseo. Ngunnembela ŵanyamwe ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu unkwakulupilila Kilisito ŵanli ku Kolinto pamo ni ŵandu wose ŵa Akunnungu ŵaali ku Akaya kose.
2 Favour unto you, and peace, from God [our] Father, and Lord Jesus Christ.
Tukwaŵenda Akunnungu Atati ŵetu ni Ambuje Che Yesu Kilisito ampe ntuuka ni chitendewele.
3 Blessed, be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassions, and God of all encouragement,
Alapikwe Akunnungu ŵaali Atati ŵa Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito ni Atati ŵaali ni chanasa ni Akunnungu ŵa utulasyo wose.
4 Who encourageth us in all our tribulation, to the end we may be able to encourage them who are in any tribulation—through means of the encouragement wherewith we, ourselves, are encouraged by God.
Akunnungu akututulasya mitima mmalagasyo gose kuti noweji tukombole kwatulasya mitima aŵala ŵaali mmalagasyo gagaligose. Tukwatulasya mitima mpela ŵelewo iŵatite pakututulasya uwe.
5 Because, even as the sufferings of the Christ overflow unto us, so, through the Christ, overfloweth, our encouragement also.
Mpela ila igakuti kupunda kukwetu malagasyo kwaligongo lya kwatumichila Kilisito, iyoyopeyo ni itukuti kutulaswa kwannope ni Kilisito.
6 But, whether we are in tribulation, it is for your encouragement and salvation; whether we are encouraged, it is for your encouragement, which worketh inwardly by the endurance of the same sufferings which, we also, suffer; —
Iŵaga uwe tukulagaswa, tukulagaswa kuti ŵanyamwe ntulaswe mitima ni kukulupuswa. Pane iŵaga tukutulaswa mitima, ŵanyamwe nkutulaswa mitima iyoyopeyo ni kupata machili gakunkombolesya kugapililila malagasyo galagala gatukugapililila.
7 And so, our hope, is sure in your behalf, —knowing that, —as ye are sharers of the sufferings, so, also of the encouragement.
Kwayele chilolelo chatulinacho kukwenu chili chakulimba, pakuŵa tukuimanyilila kuti mwaŵaga noweji mmalagasyo chinchiŵa pamo noweji mu kutulaswa kwetu.
8 For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, as to our tribulation which happened in Asia, —that, exceedingly, beyond power, were we weighed down, so that we despaired, even of life.
Achalongo achinjetu tukusaka kummanyisya kulaga kwatwalasile ku chilambo cha Asia, pakuŵa kulaga ko kwagapundile machili getu ni kwichila mwakupwa mitima ja kupunda kukola umi.
9 But, we ourselves, within ourselves, have had the sentence of death, that we might not rest our confidence upon ourselves, but upon God, who raiseth the dead,
Isyene mmitima jetu twaganisisye kuti tuli mpela ŵalamulikwe kuulagwa. Yakopochele yeleyo kuti tukagakulupilila machili getu twachinsyene nambo twakulupilile Akunnungu ŵakwasyusya ŵandu ŵawile.
10 Who, out of so great a death, rescued us, and will rescue, —unto whom we have turned our hope, [that], even yet, he will rescue:
Ŵelewo ŵatukulupwisye mmalagasyo gala gagasachile kutuulaga ni chapunde kutukulupusya. Noweji tukwalolela ŵelewo kuti chatukulupusye sooni.
11 Ye also labouring together on our behalf, by your supplication, that, unto many persons, being due the gift of favour, unto us, through means of many, might thanks be given in our behalf.
Ŵanyamwe nkutukamusya uwe kwakutupopelela. Nipele Akunnungu chagajanje mapopelo genu ni chatupe upile, ni ŵandu achajinji chiŵatogolele Akunnungu kwaligongo lyetu.
12 For, our boasting, is, this, —the witness of our conscience, that, in sanctity and sincerity of God, [and] not in fleshly wisdom, but in God’s favour, have we behaved ourselves in the world, —and more abundantly towards you.
Uweji tukulifunila chindu chimo, miningwa jetu jikutuŵalanjila kuti utame wetu pachilambo pano nnopennope ni ŵanyamwe kutama kwauswela ni ntima wambone utupegwilwe ni Akunnungu. Nganitutenda yeleyo kwa lunda lwa chiundu nambo kwa ntuuka wa Akunnungu.
13 For, no other things, are we writing unto you, than what ye are either reading or even acknowledging, —I hope, moreover, that, throughout, ye will acknowledge,
Tukunnembela ŵanyamwe indu yankukombola kusyoma ni kuimanyilila. Ngulolela chinnyimanyilile yambone,
14 According as ye have also acknowledged us, in part, —that, your theme of boasting, we are, even indeed as, ye, also [shall be], ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus.
nachiŵamuno sambano nkutumanyilila kanandi, nipele pa lyuŵa lichauje Ambuje chinlifune kwaligongo lyetu ni uweji yachitujile pa kulifuna kwaligongo lyenu.
15 And, in this confidence, I purposed, before, to come unto you, —in order that, a second joy, ye might have, —
Isyene naliji ni chele chilolelo, nasachile kaje kwika kukwenu kuti nkole upile kwa kumona une kaaŵili.
16 And, by your means, to pass into Macedonia, and, again, from Macedonia, to come unto you, and, by you, be set forward unto Judea: —
Ngulapilila kupitila kukwenu ndili ngwaula kuchilambo cha ku Makedonia ni pakuuja, kuti mungamusye mu ulendo wangu wa kwaula ku Yudea.
17 This, then, being my purpose, perhaps, after all, with lightness, I dealt [with the matter]? or, the things that I purpose, according to the flesh, I purpose, —that, with me, should be the Yea, yea, and the Nay, nay?
Ana panasachile kutenda yeleyo nkuganisya naliji jwagalaukagalauka? Pane inguganisya nguganisya kwa nganisyo sya chiundu pinguti, “Elo,” ni “Ngwamba,” kwakatema kamo?
18 Faithful, however, is God, in that, our discourse, which was [delivered] unto you, is not Yea and Nay;
Akunnungu ali ŵakukulupilichika, utenga wetu kukwenu ngaŵa liloŵe lyakuti “Elo,” ni “Ngwamba” kwakatema kamo.
19 For, the Son of God, Christ Jesus—who, among you, through us, was proclaimed, —through me, and Silvanus, and Timothy, became not Yea and Nay, —but Yea, in him, hath it become;
Pakuŵa Mwana jwa Akunnungu, Che Yesu Kilisito, jutwanlalichilaga kukwenu une ni che Siluwano ni che Timoseo, nganaŵa mundu jwa “Elo” ni “Ngwamba,” kwakatema kamo, nambo moŵa gose ali “Elo” ja Akunnungu.
20 For, how many soever be the promises of God, in him, is the Yea, —wherefore also, through him, [be] the Amen, unto God, for glory, through us.
Pakuŵa ilanga yose ya Akunnungu kwa litala li Che Yesu Kilisito ikuŵa “Elo”. Kwa ligongo lyo tukuti “Eloo” kwa litala lya ŵelewo kwa kwakusya Akunnungu.
21 Now, he that confirmeth us, together with you, for Christ, and hath anointed us, is God:
Akunnungu nsyene ni ŵakutulimbisya uwe ni ŵanyamwe mkulumbikana ni Kilisito. Ni uŵatusagwile,
22 Who also hath sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
atupele Mbumu jwakwe mmitima jetu aŵe chimanyisyo chachikulosya kuti tuli ŵandu ŵakwe, nombewo aŵele poni kwa indu yose yaatugosele.
23 But, I, call upon God, as a witness, against my own soul, —that, to spare you, not yet, have I come unto Corinth:
Akunnungu ali jwaumboni jwangu, ŵelewo akuumanyilila mtima wangu. Uneji naamwiwe ninaiche sooni ku Kolinto kukunsupusya kwakunsalila maloŵe gakalipa.
24 Not that we have lordship over your faith, but are, helpers, of your joy, for, by your faith, ye stand.
Ngatukusaka kunkanganichisya nkati aila inkuikulupilila, pakuŵa tukwimanyilila kuti nli ŵakulimba mu chikulupi chenu, nambo tukupanganya masengo pamo ni ŵanyamwe ligongo lya kusengwa kwenu.
