2 Corinthians 11
1 I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness, but indeed you do bear with me.
Dai muchindiitira moyo murefu zvishoma paupenzi hwangu; asiwo munondiitira moyo murefu.
2 For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy. For I promised you in marriage to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ.
Nokuti ndine godo nemwi negodo raMwari; nokuti ndakakuwanisai kumurume umwe, kuti ndikukumikidzeimuri mhandara yakachena kuna Kristu.
3 But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness, so your minds might be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
Asi ndinotya kuti zvimwe nyoka sezvayakanyengera Evha nemano ayo, saizvozvo ndangariro dzenyu dzingatsauswa pauchokwadi huri muna Kristu.
4 For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we didn’t preach, or if you receive a different spirit which you didn’t receive, or a different “good news” which you didn’t accept, you put up with that well enough.
Nokuti kana anosvika achiparidza umwe Jesu watisina kuparidza, kana zvimwe muchigamuchira umwe mweya wamusina kugamuchira, kana imwe evhangeri yamusina kugamuchira, zvakanaka kuti muzviitire moyo murefu.
5 For I reckon that I am not at all behind the very best apostles.
Nokuti ndinoona ndisingasariri nepadiki kuvaapositori vakurusa.
6 But though I am unskilled in speech, yet I am not unskilled in knowledge. No, in every way we have been revealed to you in all things.
Kanawo kunyange ndisina kudzidza pashoko, asi kwete paruzivo; asi pachinhu chese takaratidzwa kwamuri muzvinhu zvese.
7 Or did I commit a sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached to you God’s Good News free of charge?
Kana ndakaita chivi here pakuzvininipisa kuti imwi mukudzwe, nokuti ndakaparidza kwamuri evhangeri yaMwari pasina muripo?
8 I robbed other assemblies, taking wages from them that I might serve you.
Ndakapamba amwe makereke, ndichitora muripo kuti ndikushandirei.
9 When I was present with you and was in need, I wasn’t a burden on anyone, for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of my need. In everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and I will continue to do so.
Uye pandakange ndiripo kwamuri ndichishaiwa handina kuremedza munhu; nokuti zvandaishaiwa, hama dzaibva Makedhonia dzakapa; uye pazvese ndakazvichengeta kuti ndirege kuva mutoro kwamuri, uye ndichazvichengeta.
10 As the truth of Christ is in me, no one will stop me from this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
Chokwadi chaKristu chiri mandiri, kuti kuzvikudza uku hakungamiswi mandiri kumatunhu eAkaya.
11 Why? Because I don’t love you? God knows.
Nemhaka yei? Nokuti handikudii here? Mwari anoziva.
12 But what I do, that I will continue to do, that I may cut off opportunity from those who desire an opportunity, that in which they boast, they may be recognized just like us.
Asi chandinoita, ndichaitawo, kuti ndigure mukana kune vanoshuva mukana; kuti pane zvavanozvikudza nazvo vawanikwe vakaita sesuwo.
13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as Christ’s apostles.
Nokuti vakadaro vaapositori venhema, vabati vanonyengera, vanozvishandura kuva vaapositori vaKristu.
14 And no wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of light.
Hazvishamisiwo; nokuti Satani amene anozvishandura kuva mutumwa wechiedza.
15 It is no great thing therefore if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.
Naizvozvo hachisi chinhu chikuru kana nevashumiri vake vachizvishandura kuita sevashumiri vekururama; kuguma kwavo kuchava semabasa avo.
16 I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little.
Ndinotizve: Ngakurege kuva nemunhu anofunga kuti ndiri benzi; asi kana zvisakadaro, sebenziwo ndigamuchirei, kuti neni ndizvikudze zvishoma.
17 That which I speak, I don’t speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting.
Zvandinotaura, handitauri sekuna Ishe, asi sepaupenzi, pachivimbo ichi chekuzvikudza.
18 Seeing that many boast after the flesh, I will also boast.
Sezvo vazhinji vachizvikudza panyama, iniwo ndichazvikudza.
19 For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise.
Nokuti munoitira mapenzi moyo murefu nemufaro muri vakachenjera.
20 For you bear with a man if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, or if he strikes you on the face.
Nokuti munoita moyo murefu, kana munhu achikuisai muuranda, kana munhu achikudyai kupedza, kana munhu achikutapai, kana munhu achizvikudza, kana munhu achikurovai kumeso.
21 To my shame, I speak as though we had been weak. Yet in whatever way anyone is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also.
Ndinoreva sechinyadzo, senge kuti isu takange tine utera. Asi pane chipi nechipi umwe paane ushingi (ndinotaura paupenzi), ini ndine ushingiwo.
22 Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the offspring of Abraham? So am I.
VaHebheru here? Neniwo. VaIsraeri here? Neniwo. Imbeu yaAbhurahama here? Neniwo.
23 Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself.) I am more so: in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, and in deaths often.
Vashumiri vaKristu here? (Ndinotaura semupengo), ndinovapfuura, zvikurusa pamabasa anorema, pamavanga kupfuura chipimo, mumajere zvikurusa, pandufu kazhinji.
24 Five times I received forty stripes minus one from the Jews.
KuVaJudha ndakagamuchira kashanu shamhu dzine makumi mana kusiya imwe.
25 Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I suffered shipwreck. I have been a night and a day in the deep.
Katatu ndakarohwa netsvimbo, kamwe ndakatakwa nemabwe, katatu ndakaputsikirwa nechikepe, usiku humwe nemasikati ndakange ndiri muudziku hwegungwa;
26 I have been in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my countrymen, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils among false brothers;
panzendo kazhinji, panjodzi dzenzizi, panjodzi dzemakororo, panjodzi nevekwangu, panjodzi nevahedheni, panjodzi muguta, panjodzi murenje, panjodzi mugungwa, panjodzi pakati pehama dzenhema;
27 in labor and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, and in cold and nakedness.
pakutambudzika nepakuremerwa, pakusarara kazhinji, panzara nenyota, pakutsanya kazhinji, pachando nepakushama.
28 Besides those things that are outside, there is that which presses on me daily: anxiety for all the assemblies.
Kunze kwezvinhu izvi zviri panze, kurangarira makereke ese kunondimanikidza zuva rimwe nerimwe.
29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I don’t burn with indignation?
Ndiani anoshaiwa simba, neni ndikasashaiwa simba? Ndiani anogumburwa, neni ndikasatsva?
30 If I must boast, I will boast of the things that concern my weakness.
Kana zvakafanira kuzvikudza, ndichazvikudza nezvinhu zveutera hwangu.
31 The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, he who is blessed forever more, knows that I don’t lie. (aiōn g165)
Mwari naBaba vaIshe wedu Jesu Kristu, anorumbidzwa kusvikira rinhi narinhi, anoziva kuti handirevi nhema. (aiōn g165)
32 In Damascus the governor under King Aretas guarded the Damascenes’ city, desiring to arrest me.
PaDhamasiko mutungamiriri wamambo Areta wakarinda guta reveDhamasiko achida kundibata;
33 I was let down in a basket through a window by the wall, and escaped his hands.
uye ndakaburuswa nepawindo ndiri mudengu nepamudhuri, ndikapukunyuka pamaoko ake.
