2 Corinthians 6
1 And we co-operating with Him do also exhort you that ye receive not the grace of God in vain:
Ffe ng’abakolera awamu ne Katonda, tubeegayirira, ekisa kya Katonda kye mufunye, kireme kufa bwereere.
2 for He saith, "I have heard thee in an acceptable time, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee." Behold now is the acceptable time; behold now is the day of salvation.
Kubanga agamba nti, “Nakuwulira mu biro ebituufu, era ne nkuyamba ku lunaku olw’obulokozi.” Laba kaakano kye kiseera ekituufu, era laba kaakano lwe lunaku olw’obulokozi.
3 We give no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
Tetuleeta kintu kyonna kyesittaza, obuweereza bwaffe buleme okunenyezebwa,
4 but in every thing approving ourselves as the ministers of God; by much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in straits,
naye mu buli kintu tweyoleka nga tuli baweereza ba Katonda, mu kugumiikiriza okungi okw’okubonaabona, mu bizibu byonna ebya buli ngeri, ne mu kunyolwa,
5 in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in watchings, in fastings;
ne mu kukubibwa ne mu kusibibwa mu kkomera, ne mu busasamalo, ne mu kutakabana, ne mu kutunula, ne mu kusiiba,
6 by purity, by knowledge, by long-suffering, by kindness, by the holy Spirit,
ne mu bulongoofu, ne mu kumanya, ne mu bugumiikiriza, ne mu kisa, mu Mwoyo Omutukuvu, ne mu kwagala okutaliimu bukuusa,
7 by love unfeigned, by the word of truth, by the power of God, with the armour of righteousness on the right and on the left; through honor and dishonor,
ne mu kigambo eky’amazima, ne mu maanyi ga Katonda olw’ebyokulwanyisa eby’obutuukirivu ebiri mu mukono ogwa ddyo n’ogwa kkono,
8 through evil report and good report;
wakati mu kitiibwa n’okunyoomebwa, wakati mu kutufeebya, ne wakati mu kututenda, nga tuyitibwa abalimba ate nga tuli ba mazima.
9 as deceivers, and yet true; as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold we live; as chastened, but not put to death;
Ensi etusussa amaaso nga b’etemanyi, naye ate nga tumanyiddwa ng’abaafa, naye laba nga tuli balamu, nga tubonerezebwa naye ate nga tetuttibwa,
10 as sorrowing, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, yet possessing all things.
nga tunakuwala naye ate nga tusanyuka bulijjo, nga tuli ng’abaavu naye nga tugaggawaza bangi, nga tuli ng’abatalina kintu naye ate nga tulina byonna.
11 O Corinthians, our mouth is opened unto you, our heart is enlarged:
Twogedde lwatu gye muli Abakkolinso, n’omutima gwaffe gugaziye.
12 ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels.
Musiriikiridde bingi naye ffe tubategeezezza byonna.
13 Now as a return of our love (I speak as to my children) be ye also enlarged towards us.
Kaakano njogera nammwe nga bwe nandyogedde n’abaana, temutwekwekerera.
14 Be not unsuitably connected with infidels: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? or what communion hath light with darkness?
Temwegattanga wamu n’abatali bakkiriza, kubanga nkolagana ki eriwo wakati w’obutuukirivu n’obujeemu, oba kutabagana ki okuliwo wakati w’ekitangaala n’ekizikiza?
15 what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath a believer with an infidel?
Kristo atabagana atya ne Beriyali? Oba mugabo ki omukkiriza gw’alina n’atali mukkiriza?
16 and what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God: as God hath said, "I will dwell in them, and I will walk among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people."
Yeekaalu ya Katonda ne bakatonda abalala bibeera bitya obumu? Kubanga ffenna tuli Yeekaalu ya Katonda omulamu. Nga Katonda bwe yagamba nti, “Nnaabeeranga mu bo era natambuliranga mu bo, nnaabeeranga Katonda waabwe, nabo banaabeeranga bantu bange.”
17 Wherefore, "come out from the midst of them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch no unclean thing," and I will receive you:
Noolwekyo “muve wakati mu bo, mubeeyawuleko, bw’ayogera Mukama. Temukwata ku bitali birongoofu, nange nnaabaaniriza.”
18 and I will be a father unto you, and ye shall be to me for sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
Era “nnaabeeranga Kitammwe, nammwe ne mubeeranga batabani bange ne bawala bange,” bw’ayogera Mukama Ayinzabyonna.
