2 Corinthians 12
1 I must boast, but nothing is gained by it. But I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord.
Kusinja nitogole, kuite kutile nekekongeeli ligwa nelo nelanso. Inge kulongoleka mumaono nema nuukunukuilwa kupuma kumukulu.
2 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago who—whether in the body or out of the body, I do not know, God knows—was caught up into the third heaven.
Numulengile umuntu ung'we mung'wa Kilisto mumyaka ikumi leng'wi numunane nekiile - nemuile, ang'wi kunzi amuili, unene singamine, Itunda uine - ausapuwe migulya milunde lakataatu.
3 And I know that this man—whether in the body, or out of the body, I do not know, God knows—
Hange nengile kena umuntu uyu - angeze kumuili, ang'wa kunzi a muili, unene singa mine Itunda uine -
4 was caught up into paradise and heard things too sacred for anyone to say.
aeuhoilwo migulye sunga kuparadiso nukija imakani awelu kukila kumuntu wehi kuletambula.
5 On behalf of such a person I will boast. But on behalf of myself I will not boast, except about my weaknesses.
Kunsoko amuntu anga uyu kitogola, kuite kunsoko ane unene singa kitogola, kuleka unegetu wane.
6 If I should choose to boast, I will not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I will keep from boasting, so that no one will think more of me than what he sees in me or hears from me.
Anga ndowe kutogola, singe aenamupungu, kunsoko ae kuligilya etai. Kuite kuleka kitogola, nsoko kena waule nua kusinga lukulu nanso kukela nekekigeela mung'waane, ang'wi kija kupuma kung'waane.
7 To keep me from boasting because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger from Satan to afflict me—so I would not become overly proud.
Singa kitogola gwa kunsoko aukunukuilwa nua ukuilwe kuile singa kutula nelogoha, elija ae leikilwe mumueli wane, muluung'wa nua mulugu kumbuluga unene, singa ae nzetula nuwihumbuli.
8 Three times I begged the Lord about this, for him to take it away from me.
Nkua itaatu ae numupepeeye umukulu kunsoko aeli nsoko nuanso waheje kupuma kung'waane.
9 But he said to me, “My grace is enough for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.” So I would much rather boast about my weakness, so that the power of Christ might reside on me.
Nung'wenso wikambile, “Uukende wane ukondile kunsoko ane. Kunsoko engulu igela muunegetu. Uuu, azanzee sumbiilya lukulu kitogola lukulu munegetu wane, nsoko kena uuhumi nuang'wa Kilisto uhumi wikie mung'waane.
10 Therefore I am content for Christ's sake in weaknesses, in insults, in troubles, in persecutions and distressing situations. For whenever I am weak, then I am strong.
Kuite nkondile nsoko ang'wa Kilisto, munegetu, mutukelwi, mulwago, mukagigwa, mumasigo. Kunsoko itungu nenkole muunegetu, hange nkete ngulu.
11 I have become a fool! You forced me to this, for I should have been praised by you. For I was not at all inferior to the so-called super-apostles, even though I am nothing.
Unene naina nemupungune! unyenye aemunsingilye kueke, kunsoko angeze ae munkuiye umenunyenye. Kunsoko singa ae numuula lukulu kuatuungwa - aza ateze une singa kintu.
12 The true signs of an apostle were performed among you with complete patience, signs and wonders and mighty deeds.
Ilengasiilyo yatai ni niyaatuung'wa ae itendekile katekate anyu kuigigimeeli, ilengasiilyo niaukuilwa nintendo nu nkulu.
13 For how were you less important than the rest of the churches, except that I was not a burden to you? Forgive me for this wrong!
Kuule nae mutuile miasanigwa nea pihe kukela imatekeelo nasagile, singa ae nemuligo kitalanyu? Munsamile kigazo ile.
14 Look! I am ready to come to you a third time. I will not be a burden to you, for I do not want what is yours. I want you. For children should not save up for the parents. Instead, the parents should save up for the children.
Goza unene nkondile kiza kitalanyu nkua itaatu. Singa ana kutula nemuligo kitalanyu, kunsoko singa ndoilwe, nekanyu. Numutakile unye. Kunsoko iang'enya kuika usagi kunsoko aleli. Kuleka ite ialeli yianonee kuike uusagi kunsoko ang'enya.
15 I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more, am I to be loved less?
Kulowa lukulu kutumila nukutumilwa kunsoko amoma anyu. Ang'wi nealoilwe kukela, inonee mundowe uninoo?
16 But as it is, I did not burden you. But, since I am so crafty, I am the one who caught you by deceit.
Kuite ang'wi uu, singe kumuhumiilya muligo unyenye kunsoko kena unene nemuhugu kukela, unene yuyu nae umuambile unye yatula anga ae nemuligilye kuuteele.
17 Did I take advantage of you by anyone I sent to you?
Itee, ae nihoile kitumela nsailo kuwehi nae numutumile kitalanyu?
18 I urged Titus to go to you, and I sent the other brother with him. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not walk in the same way? Did we not walk in the same steps?
Ae numupepeeye u Tito heza kitalanyu, hange nekatuma numuntu umuya palung'wi nuyo. Itee, u Tito ae umitumie nsao yedune? Itee singa ae kugendile inzila yiyoyiyo ne? Itee, singa ae kugendile impambatilyo zizo zizo ne?
19 Do you think all of this time we have been defending ourselves to you? In the sight of God, we have in Christ been saying everything for your strengthening.
Musigile kena imatungo aya ehi ae kuinena usese udu kungwaanyu? Ntongeela ang'wi Tunda nukung'wa Kilisto, aekenda tambula kela ekintu nsoko akumuzenga unyenye.
20 For I fear that when I come I may not find you as I wish. I fear that you might not find me as you wish. I fear that there may be quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, rivalries, slander, gossip, arrogance, and disorder.
Kunsoko nogopile kena nene ikiza nikumile numuulye unye anga uu insula ane. Nogopile kena muhumile muleke kundija unene anga nemukete insula. Nogopile kena muhumile kutula nuudui, wetu, wigeli nuautaki, nsula au winyene, witegeli, logoha, nuwilei.
21 I fear that when I come back, my God might humble me before you. I fear that I might be grieved by many of those who have sinned before now, and who did not repent of the impurity and sexual immorality and lustful indulgence that they practiced.
Nogopile kena nekusuka hange. Itunda wane uhumile kumpa upolo ntongeela anyu. Nogopile kena nikumile kulija ukia widu kuawa nei tumile imilandu kuleka itungo ile nawe nesinga ae aungamile uube, muukosi nemakani ansula neematenda.
