2 Corinthians 4
1 Therefore, seeing we have this ministry, even as we obtained mercy, we don’t faint.
Pipo tuli ni mbombo ene, khashele shishili tuiposhile, huluma satubhakhate etamaa.
2 But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by the manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.
Pamandi yakwe, tukhanile amadala ngantughensoni vya vyubheele hatukhala na malibho, satibhombela shibhibhi izyo lwa Ngulubhi, awasilisye lwa lililyoli, tuwibhonesyatete zamila ya kila mutu witaziilya Ngulubhi.
3 Even if our Good News is veiled, it is veiled in those who are dying,
Nkashele alumbilele hwetu hwobheele, iyabhele hwabhala bhene bhabhatega.
4 in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn on them. (aiōn g165)
Asalule hwabho Ungulubhi winsi ene abhapofo la enjele zyabho zyasazihweteha hahafumila habhawezya alole ulukhozyo ululambilelo umwamu wa Kristi, wali fwano gwa Nngulubhi. (aiōn g165)
5 For we don’t preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake,
Afwatanaje satu hwitangazya tete, ila Ukristi uGosi, natitete nashi patubhalongozya hunongwa ya Yesu.
6 seeing it is God who said, “Light will shine out of darkness,” who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
Afwatane yayoyo ayanjile, “Ulukhozyo lwa ikhola afume nkisi. “Aitangazyezye moyo getu, afumye ulukhozyolwenjele yiutukufu wa Ngulubhi ubhoneshelo wa Yesu Kristi.
7 But we have this treasure in clay vessels, that the exceeding greatness of the power may be of God and not from ourselves.
Lelo tubhuto muvyombo vilongo ili nkebhoneshe nguvu ingositee ya Ngulubhi sagayetu.
8 We are pressed on every side, yet not crushed; perplexed, yet not to despair;
Tutamyashila halisagati khophelwa tulola u wasi wasi ila satukata tamaa.
9 pursued, yet not forsaken; struck down, yet not destroyed;
Tuyimba hatu bhombilwe tutagwapansi satuhwangamila.
10 always carrying in the body the putting to death of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.
Insikuzyonti tinyemula mubele gwetu enfwa ya Yesu, aje uwomi wa Yesu uubhonehanaje mmabele getu.
11 For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus may be revealed in our mortal flesh.
Ati tatuli bhomi insiku zyonti tefeziwe afwe hunongwa ya Yesu, aje uwomi wa Yesu ubho neshe mumabele getu gishibinadamu.
12 So then death works in us, but life in you.
Afatanaje, ifwa ibhomba ibhomba imbombo muhati yetu.
13 But having the same spirit of faith, according to that which is written, “I believed, and therefore I spoke.” We also believe, and therefore we also speak,
Ila tulinabho Umpepo alengane na lweteshilo alagane na shila shashahandiwe, “Iheteshele, esho ehayanjile.” Ate nantele tuhwiteshela antele tiyanga.
14 knowing that he who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus, and will present us with you.
Tuminye aje ola wazyonsezye Ugosi uYesu nantele ayituzyo syaate pamo numwihale, tumenya aje ayituleta ati pamo namwe nubhoneshelo wakwe.
15 For all things are for your sakes, that the grace, being multiplied through the many, may cause the thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God.
Shila hantu hali kwa ajili yenyu aje, neema shiwenela hwa bhantu abhinji, ensumbezyo zizi daje ahwonjelele umwamu uwa Ngulubhi.
16 Therefore we don’t faint, but though our outward person is decaying, yet our inward person is renewed day by day.
Esho satu hwanza ahwolowe. Ijapo hunzi tukulupa muhati tubhombwa shipya kila lisiku.
17 For our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory, (aiōnios g166)
Hushipindi ishi ishi ufupi amayemba yalisya ati huwomi umwamu wauzida ivipimilo vyunti. (aiōnios g166)
18 while we don’t look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal. (aiōnios g166)
Afwatanaje satizama hu vintu vyavibhoneha bali vyasagavibhoveha. Ivintu vyatigawezya avilole vyesavibhonehana vya wiwila; (aiōnios g166)
