2 Corinthians 10
1 Now I, Paul, beseech you, by the mildness and gentleness of the Messiah, although I am mild towards you when present, but bold towards you when absent!
Ngai Polo oyo namonani lokola moto na bolembu na miso na bino, kasi lokola moto ya makambo makasi tango nazalaka mosika, nazali kosenga na bino, na boboto mpe na bolingo ya Klisto:
2 yet I beseech of you that, when I come, I may not be compelled by the boldness that is in me to be daring, as I estimate it, towards the persons who think we walk according to the flesh.
Nabondeli bino, tango nakoya epai na bino, bopesa ngai nzela te ya kosalela makambo makasi oyo nazali kokanisa kolakisa epai ya bato oyo bakanisaka ete biso totambolaka na mosuni.
3 For, although we walk in the flesh, our warfare is not after the flesh.
Pamba te atako ezali penza ya solo ete tozali bato, mpe tozali kobika bomoi na biso kati na nzoto, kasi tobundaka te kolanda nzoto.
4 For the arms of our warfare are not those of the flesh, but those of the power of God; by which we subdue rebellious castles.
Bibundeli oyo tobundaka na yango ezali ya bonzoto te, kasi ezali bibundeli ya nguya kati na Nzambe mpo na kokweyisa bandako batonga makasi. Solo, tobukaka makanisi ya mabe,
5 And we demolish imaginations, and every lofty thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and subjugate all reasonings to obedience to the Messiah.
tokweyisaka makanisi ya lokuta mpe nguya nyonso oyo etelemelaka boyebi ya Nzambe; tolongaka makanisi nyonso ya bomoto mpe tosalaka ete yango etosa Klisto.
6 And we are prepared, when your obedience shall be complete, to execute judgment on all the disobeying.
Lisusu, tomilengeli mpo na kopesa bozangi botosi nyonso etumbu, tango kaka botosi na bino ekokoka.
7 Do ye look on outward appearances? If any one is confident in himself that he is of the Messiah, let him know, from himself, that as he is of the Messiah, so also are we.
Botala penza makambo ndenge ezaleli. Soki ezali na moto oyo andimisami solo ete azali ya Klisto, ayeba mpe ete soki ye azali ya Klisto, biso mpe tozali ya Klisto lokola ye.
8 For if I should glory somewhat more, in the authority which our Lord hath given me, I should not be ashamed; for he gave it to us for your edification, and not for your destruction.
Bongo, ata namikumisaka koleka mpo na bokonzi oyo Nkolo apesa biso, mpo na kolendisa kondima na bino kasi mpo na kobebisa yango te, nakoyokela yango soni ata moke te
9 But I forbear, lest I should be thought to terrify you terribly, by my epistles.
mpo ete namonana te lokola nde nazali kobangisa bino na nzela ya mikanda na ngai.
10 For there are some who say, His epistles are weighty and forcible, but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible.
Pamba te bato mosusu balobaka: « Mikanda na ye ezalaka makasi mpe ebangisaka; kasi soki ye moko azali elongo na biso, azalaka na ye moto ya bolembu mpe maloba na ye ezalaka tina te. »
11 But let him who saith so, consider this, that such as we are in our epistolary discourse, when absent, such also are we in action, when present.
Boye tika ete moto oyo akanisaka bongo asimba likambo oyo: ndenge tolobaka kati na mikanda na biso tango tozalaka mosika na bino, ndenge wana mpe tokosala tango tokozala epai na bino.
12 For we dare not value, or compare ourselves, with those who vaunt: but they, because they compare themselves with themselves, are not wise.
Toboyi komikokanisa to komekana na bato mosusu oyo bamikumisaka bango moko, tango balukaka komikokanisa mpe komekana bango na bango. Solo, bazangi mayele!
13 But we will not glory beyond our measure, but within the measure of the limits which God hath imparted to us, that we should reach as far as you.
Kasi biso, tokomikumisa te koleka ndelo; tokomikumisa kaka kati na bandelo ya mosala oyo Nzambe apesa biso, oyo mpe esali ete tokoma kino epai na bino.
14 For we do not stretch ourselves, as if not reaching to you; for we do reach as far as you in the annunciation of the Messiah.
Solo, toleki bandelo na biso te lokola nde tokomaki te kino epai na bino, pamba te tokomaki penza kino epai na bino mpo na komemela bino Sango Malamu ya Klisto.
15 And we do not glory beyond our measure, in the toil of others: but we have the hope, that when your faith shall mature, we shall be magnified by you, as being within our measure;
Tomikumisaka te mpo na mosala ya bato mosusu; nzokande, tozali na elikya ete, wana kondima na bino ezali kokola, mosala na biso mpe ezali kokoba koya monene kati na bino kolanda bandelo ya mosala, oyo Nzambe apesa biso.
16 and that we shall so abound also, as to make announcements beyond you. It is not in the measure of others, and in things ready prepared, that we will glory.
Boye, tokoteya Sango Malamu kati na bituka oyo ezali mosika na bino. Pamba te toboyi na biso komikumisa na tina na mosala oyo bato mosusu basali kati na elanga na bango ya mosala.
17 But let him that will glory, glory in the Lord.
Kasi tika ete moto oyo alingi komikumisa amikumisa kati na Nkolo!
18 For not he who praiseth himself, is approved; but he whom the Lord praiseth.
Pamba te moto oyo bandimaka, ezali te oyo amilobelaka ye moko, kasi ezali nde oyo Nkolo atatolaka bosolo na tina na ye.
