2 Corinthians 2
1 But, so far as I am concerned, I have resolved not to have a painful visit the next time I come to see you.
Kino nakimalirira munda mu nze obutakomawo nate eyo nneme okubanakuwaza.
2 For if I of all men give you pain, who then is there to gladden my heart, but the very persons to whom I give pain?
Kubanga bwe nnaabanakuwaza, ani anansanyusa wabula oyo gwe nnaanakuwaza?
3 And I write this to you in order that when I come I may not receive pain from those who ought to give me joy, confident as I am as to all of you that my joy is the joy of you all.
Kyennava mbawandiikira ebyo byennyini bwe ndijja nneme kunakuwazibwa abo abandinsanyusizza, nga nnesiga nti essanyu lyange lye lyammwe mwenna.
4 For with many tears I write to you, and in deep suffering and depression of spirit, not in order to grieve you, but in the hope of showing you how brimful my heart is with love for you.
Nabawandiikira wakati mu kubonaabona okungi n’okunyolwa mu mutima, era nga nkaaba amaziga mangi, si lwa kubanakuwaza, naye mutegeere okwagala okungi ennyo kwe nnina gye muli.
5 Now if any one has caused sorrow, it has been caused not so much to me, as in some degree--for I have no wish to exaggerate--to all of you.
Bwe wabaawo eyanakuwaza munne, teyanakuwaza nze, si kulwa nga mbazitoowerera mwenna.
6 In the case of such a person the punishment which was inflicted by the majority of you is enough.
Omuntu ng’oyo ekibonerezo ekyamuweebwa abangi kimumala;
7 So that you may now take the opposite course, and forgive him rather and comfort him, for fear he should perhaps be driven to despair by his excess of grief.
kyekiva kisaana mmwe okumusonyiwa n’okumuzzaamu amaanyi si kulwa ng’ennaku emuyitirirako n’emuyinga obungi.
8 I beg you therefore fully to reinstate him in your love.
Noolwekyo mbakuutira okwongera okumukakasa nti mumwagala.
9 For in writing to you I have also this object in view--to discover by experience whether you are prepared to be obedient in every respect.
Kyennava mbawandiikira ndyoke ntegeere obanga muli bawulize mu nsonga zonna.
10 When you forgive a man an offence I also forgive it; for in fact what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, has always been for your sakes in the presence of Christ,
Bwe musonyiwa omuntu mu nsonga yonna, nange mmunsonyiwa, kubanga bwe mba nga nsonyiye, nsonyiye ku lwammwe mu maaso ga Kristo.
11 for fear Satan should gain an advantage over us. For we are not ignorant of his devices.
Setaani alemenga okutuwangula, kubanga tumanyi enkwe ze.
12 Now when I came into the Troad to spread there the Good News about the Christ, even though in the Lord's providence a door stood open before me,
Bwe natuuka mu Tulowa olw’enjiri ya Kristo, Mukama n’anzigulirawo oluggi,
13 yet, obtaining no relief for my spirit because I did not find our brother Titus, I bade them farewell and went on into Macedonia.
saawumula mu mutima gwange, bwe ssaalaba owooluganda Tito. Bwe namala okubasiibula ne ndaga e Makedoniya.
14 But to God be the thanks who in Christ ever heads our triumphal procession, and by our hands waves in every place that sweet incense, the knowledge of Him.
Katonda yeebazibwe atuwanguzisa bulijjo mu Kristo Yesu, n’akawoowo ak’okumanya, ke tubunyisa wonna.
15 For we are a fragrance of Christ grateful to God in those whom He is saving and in those who are perishing;
Tuli kawoowo eri Katonda olwa Kristo mu abo abalokolebwa ne mu abo abatannalokolebwa.
16 to the last-named an odor of death predictive of death, and to the others an odor of life predictive of life. And for such service as this who is competent?
Eri abatannalokolebwa, akawoowo kaffe ka kufa akatuusa mu kufa, naye eri abalokolebwa, ke kawoowo akongera obulamu ku bulamu. Kale ebyo ani abisobola?
17 We are; for, unlike most teachers, we are not fraudulent hucksters of God's Message; but with transparent motives, as commissioned by God, in God's presence and in communion with Christ, so we speak.
Tetuli ng’abangi abakozesa ekigambo kya Katonda olw’okwenoonyeza ebyabwe, naye ffe twogera nga tetuliimu bukuusa. Naye twogera okuva eri Katonda era mu maaso ga Katonda, kubanga twogerera mu Kristo nga tetwekomoma.
