2 Corinthians 13
1 This [is] the third [time] I am coming to you: By the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.
Ulu lwa vutatu ni niza kwenu. “Ku nyaswa konse ku swanela ku tanga cha zi vonekete ka che panki zovele kapa zotatwe.”
2 I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them who heretofore have sinned, and to all others, that, if I come again, I will not spare;
Chini va wambite kale kwa va na va chiti chivi mi ni ku vonse ha ni ve na uko imwi inako ya vuveli, mi ni iwamba hape: Hete ni nize hape, kete ni ni va siyevulyo.
3 Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, who toward you is not weak, but is mighty in you.
Ni mi wambila izi kakuti mukwete ku lola zivoneka kuti Kirisite njo wamba ku zwilila mwangu. Ka vulite ziho ka chenu. Kusivulyo, iye u kolete mwenu.
4 For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God towards you.
Mukuti a va vambulwa mu ku vula ziho, kono uhala cha ziho za Ireeza. Mi naswe vulyo tu vulite ziho mwali, kono mutuhale naye cha ziho za Ireeza mukati ketu.
5 Examine yourselves, whether ye are in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye are reprobates?
Mu li tatuve mu vene mu vone haiva mwina mwi intumelo. Mu li like muvene. Ka mulemuhite kuti Jesu Kirisite wina mwenu? Mwe na, konji haiva kena mu va zumininwa.
6 But I trust that ye will know that we are not reprobates.
Mi nina insempo ya kuti ka muwane kuti ka tuzumininwe.
7 Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we should be as reprobates.
Hanu tu lapela kwa Ireeza kuti kanji mutendi nanga bumwi vuvi. Ka ni lapeli kuti tu voneke sina tu va hitilili intiko. Kusivulyo, ni lapela kuti mutende chi shieme, ni ha kuvoneka kuti tu vashali intiko.
8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
Mukuti ka tu woli ku panga chimwi chi lwisanisa initi, kono vulyo cha initi.
9 For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we wish, [even] your perfection.
Mukuti tusanga mu kuvula ziho mi inwe mukolete. Naswe tulapela kuti mwi zuzilizwe.
10 Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.
Ni ñola izi zintu ni ni sena namwe, nji kuti chinina nanwe kanzi ni mi tendi cha vukali cha ku velekisa vuyendisi bwangu-uvo Simwine bwa va nihi, ili kuti ni mizake ku zwila havusu, mi isiñi ku mi vozekeza hansi.
11 Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.
Cha ma manikizo, vakwetu, musange! Mutende cha ku vusulusa, mu su suwezwe, muzumi nzane ha mwina, muhale mwi inkozo. Mi Ireeza we lato ni inkozo ka ve nanwe.
12 Greet one another with a holy kiss.
Muli lumelise mukati kenu cha kuli chunchuna ku jolola.
13 All the saints salute you.
Vonse va zumine va mi lumelisa.
14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit, [be] with you all. Amen.
Mi musa wa Simwine Jesu Kirisite, ilato lya Ireeza, ni kuli kopanya kwa Luhuho Lujolola zive nanwe mu vonse.
