2 Corinthians 7
1 Having therefore, my beloved, these promises, let us purify ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
Mobanse bame, pakuba ne malayano awa, katuliswepeshani tobene kushiya bintu byonse bikute kusafwanya mibili ne myoyo yetu, katubani bantu baswepa mu mikalilo yetu kayi tutine Lesa.
2 Receive us---we have injured no man, we have corrupted no one, we have over-reached no one.
Kamututambulani ne myoyo yenu yasunguluka. Tuliya kwipishilapo muntu naba umo sobwe, tuliya kunyengelelapo muntu, nambi kumubepa.
3 I speak not this to condemn you: for I said before that ye are so much in our hearts that we could live and die with you.
Nkandambangeti ndimusebanye sobwe, mbuli ncondambapo kendi kwambeti afwe tumusuni cindi conse katuli tobayumi cino cindi nambi tufwa.
4 I use much freedom of speech to you, and I boast much of you: I am filled with comfort, and superabound in joy above all our affliction.
Amwe mulapanga moyo wakame kukondwa mu makatasho onse ngotulacananga, ame ndapitilishinga kuba wakondwa.
5 For when we came into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were afflicted on every side; without were fightings, within were fears.
Pakwinga mpotwalashika ku Makedoniya twalikuba twalema. Makatasho alikuba mbwee kulikonse, balwani balatupensha kayi twalaba ne buyowa mumyoyo.
6 But God, who comforteth those that are brought low, comforted us by the coming of Titus:
Nikukabeco, Lesa ukute kuyuminisha bantu bapenga mu myoyo walatuyuminisha pakututumina Tito kuno nkotubele.
7 and not only by his coming, but especially by the consolation wherewith he was comforted on your account, acquainting us with your earnest desire towards us, your grief, and your zeal for me; so that I rejoiced greatly.
Nteko kwisa kwakendi konka kwalatuyuminisha sobwe, nsombi maswi akendi akwamba mbuli ncomwalamuyuminisha. Walatwambila kwambeti mwalikuyanda kumbona, kayi ne kungumana kwenu ne kwambeti mwalikuba mwalibambila kuncingilisha, neco pacino cindi ndakondwa.
8 For though I grieved you by my letter, I do not repent, though I did repent; for I perceive that that epistle grieved you, though it was but for a little while.
Kalata njondalalemba yalamupa kungumana, nomba ame ndiya kunyumfwa nsoni sobwe, ee pakutanguna ndalanyumfwa nsoni, kayi ndabonongeti makani alikuba mu kalata iyo alamungumanika kwa kacindi kang'ana.
9 However, now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance; for ye were grieved after a godly manner, so that ye received no damage from us.
Nomba lino ndakondwa nsombi nteko kukondwa cebo cakwambeti makani akame alamungumanika, nsombi cebo cakwambeti kungumana kwenu kulalengesheti mushiye bwipishi. Neco Lesa ewalalengesha kungumana uku, neco paliya caipa ncotwalensa kuli njamwe.
10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
Pakwinga kungumana kukute kukondwelesha Lesa kukute kushinta buyumi ne kuleta lupulusho. Ee cakubinga nkacela kuleta nsoni, nomba kungumana kwabula kwa bu Lesa kukute kutwala kulufu.
11 For behold this very thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly manner, what diligence it wrought in you! yea, what apology, what indignation, what fear, what earnest desire, what zeal, what revenge! by all which ye have shewn yourselves to be clear in the affair.
Kamubonani lino Lesa ncalenshi pakungumana kwenu, mulaba bantu balayandishishinga kuba babula mulandu, mwalikuba mwalakalala kayi mwalikuba ne buyowa palico calenshika, mwalikuyanda kumbona kwambeti ndimupe mulandu wamwelela uyo muntu walensa cilubo. Lino mu makani awa onse mulacaniketi muliya mulandu sobwe.
12 Wherefore if I wrote in such a manner to you, it was not merely on his account who had done the wrong, nor for his sake who had been injured; but that our care for you in the sight of God might be manifested among you.
Neco mpondalalemba kalata isa ndiya kwilembela cebo ca uyo muntu walensa cilubo, nambi cebo ca uyo walepishilwa sobwe, nsombi ndalailembela kwambeti ndimuleshe cakutamusoleka pa menso a Lesa, kwambeti kulibenga kwenu nikunene.
13 We were therefore comforted by your consolation; and rejoiced the more at the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all;
Ico ecebo cakendi calatuyuminisha. Nomba nteco ico conka sobwe, twalayuminishiwa kubona Tito ncalikuba wakondwa ne ncomwalamusangalasha.
14 and because if I boasted of any thing to him concerning you, I was not ashamed; but as we have spoken all things to you in truth, so likewise our boasting of you to Titus was truth.
Ndalamulesha kukondwa kwakame ne njamwe muliya kumpa nsoni, tuliya kumubepapo sobwe, nicimo cimo kulumbaisha nkotwalalumbaisha Tito kulalilesheti nikwakubinga.
15 And his bowels are exceedingly moved towards you, when he calls to mind the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.
Lusuno lwakendi pali njamwe lulenga kukonempa pa kwanuka ncomwalikuba mwalibambila kwinsa byonse mbyali kumwambila, kayi ne ncomwalamutambula mwakulicepesha ne bulemu.
16 I rejoice therefore that in every thing I have confidence in you.
Ndakondwa kayi ndamushoma ne kucinka manungo muli njamwe.
