2 Akorinitho 8
1 Na rĩrĩ, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, nĩtũkwenda mũmenye ũhoro wa Wega wa Ngai ũrĩa aheanĩte makanitha-inĩ ma Makedonia.
We make known now to you, brothers, the grace of God which bestowed among the churches of Macedonia
2 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ acio maageririo na magerio manene-rĩ, gĩkeno kĩao kĩnene na ũthĩĩni wao mũkĩru nĩciatũmire maingĩhĩrwo nĩ ũtaana mũnene.
that in much proof of tribulation the excess of the joy of them and of deep poverty of them abounded into (the riches *N(k)O*) of the generosity of them,
3 Nĩgũkorwo niĩ ndĩ mũira atĩ maaheanire indo o ta ũrĩa maahotire, o na makĩruta makĩria ma ũrĩa mangĩahotire, nĩ ũndũ wa kwĩyendera kwao.
For according to [their] ability, I testify [that], and (beside *N(k)O*) [their] ability [they were] willing of themselves,
4 Nao magĩtũthaitha na hinya mũno metĩkĩrio kũgwatanĩra ũhoro-inĩ wa gũteithia andũ arĩa aamũre.
with much entreaty imploring of us for the grace and the fellowship of the service among the saints (to receive us, *K*)
5 Magĩĩka ũndũ ũcio matiawĩkire ta ũrĩa twerĩgĩrĩire, no maambire kwĩheana o ene kũrĩ Mwathani o na kũrĩ ithuĩ, kũringana na ũrĩa Ngai endete.
And not [only] even as we had hoped, but themselves they gave first to the Lord and then to us through [the] will of God
6 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩtwaringĩrĩirie Tito, kuona atĩ nĩwe wambĩrĩirie ũndũ ũcio, atuĩke wa kũrĩĩkia ũndũ ũcio wa ũtugi wanyu.
Accordingly exhorting we Titus, that even as he had begun so also he may complete with you as well grace this.
7 O ta ũrĩa mũgaacagĩra harĩ maũndũ mothe, nĩmo gwĩtĩkia, na ũhoro wa kwaria, na wa ũmenyo, na thĩinĩ wa kĩyo gĩkinyanĩru, o na wa wendo wanyu harĩ ithuĩ-rĩ, kĩingĩhiei wega ũyũ wa gũtugana o naguo.
But even as in every [way] you abound, in faith and in speech and in knowledge and in all earnestness and in the from (of us *N(K)O*) in (you *N(K)O*) love, that also in this grace you may abound.
8 Ti kũmwatha ndĩramwatha, no ndĩrenda kũgeria wendani wanyu, nyone ũrĩa ũrĩ wa ma ngĩũgerekania na kĩyo kĩa andũ arĩa angĩ.
Not as a command do I speak but through the of others earnestness also the of your love genuineness proving;
9 Nĩgũkorwo nĩmũũĩ ũhoro wa wega wa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ atĩ, o na gũtuĩka aarĩ gĩtonga, nĩatuĩkire mũthĩĩni nĩ ũndũ wanyu, nĩgeetha inyuĩ mũtuĩke itonga na ũndũ wa ũrĩa aathĩĩnĩkĩte.
You know for the grace of the Lord of us Jesus Christ that for the sake of you He became poor rich being, so that you yourselves through that poverty may be enriched.
10 Ha ũhoro ũyũ-rĩ, mataaro makwa ma ũndũ ũrĩa ũmwagĩrĩire makĩria nĩ atĩrĩ: Mwaka ũcio ũrathirire nĩ inyuĩ mwarĩ a mbere, na to ũndũ wa kũheana gwiki, no o na nĩ ũndũ wa kwĩrirĩria gwĩka ũguo.
And a judgment in this [matter] I give; this indeed for you is profitable, who not only to act but also to will you began before before a year ago.
11 Rĩu-rĩ, kĩrĩĩkiei wĩra ũcio, nĩgeetha kĩyo kĩanyu kĩa wendo wa gwĩka ũguo kĩiganane na kũrĩĩkia kwanyu kwa ũndũ ũcio, kũringana na kĩrĩa mũrĩ nakĩo.
Now then also the doing do complete so that just as [there was] the readiness of the to will so also the to complete out of that which [you] having.
12 Mũndũ angĩkorwo arĩ na wendo, kĩheo kĩu nĩgĩtĩkĩrĩku kũringana na ũrĩa mũndũ arĩ na indo, ti kũringana na ũrĩa aciagĩte.
If for the readiness is present, as if he shall have (anyone *k*) acceptable, not as not he does have.
13 Kwĩrirĩria gwitũ ti amwe mahũthĩrio mũrigo na inyuĩ mũhinyĩrĩrio, no nĩgeetha andũ othe maigananio.
Not for that to others [there may be] ease but for you (now *k*) affliction,
14 Ihinda rĩĩrĩ mũingĩhĩtie indo-rĩ, nĩigũteithia wagi wao, nĩgeetha rĩrĩa magaakorwo na indo o nao magaateithia wagi wanyu. Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ othe nĩmakaigananio,
but of equality; At the present time your excess [will be] for the of those need, so that also their excess may be for the of you need, so that there may become equality
15 o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Mũndũ ũrĩa wonganĩtie nyingĩ, ndarĩ kĩndũ aatigĩirio; nake ũrĩa wonganirie nini, ndarĩ kĩndũ aagire.”
Even as it has been written: He the much not did abound and he the little not lacked.
16 Nĩngũcookeria Ngai ngaatho, ũrĩa wekĩrire ngoro-inĩ ya Tito ũhoro wa kũmũrũmbũiya o ta ũrĩa niĩ ndĩ na ũhoro ũcio.
Thanks however to God the [One] (gave *N(k)O*) the same earnestness for you into the heart of Titus,
17 Nĩgũkorwo Tito to mathaithana maitũ aamũkĩrire, no nĩegũũka kũrĩ inyuĩ arĩ na kĩyo kĩnene nĩ ũndũ wa kwĩyendera gwake.
For indeed [our] appeal he accepted, very earnest however being of his own accord he has gone out to you.
18 O na nĩtũgũtũma Tito marĩ hamwe na mũrũ wa Ithe witũ ũrĩa ũrĩ na ngumo njega makanitha-inĩ mothe nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa atungatagĩra Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega.
We have sent now with him the brother whose praise [is] in the gospel through all [times] of the churches.
19 Makĩria ma ũguo, nĩwe wathuurirwo nĩ makanitha nĩguo atwarane na ithuĩ ũhoro-inĩ wa mũhothi ũcio wa ũtaana, o ũcio tũrutagĩra wĩra nĩguo tũgoocithie Mwathani we mwene, na tuonanie kĩyo kĩrĩa tũrĩ nakĩo gĩa kwenda gũteithia.
not only now, but also having been chosen by the churches fellow traveler of us (with *NK(o)*) grace this that [is] being administered by us toward the himself of the Lord glory and readiness (of us. *N(K)O*)
20 Nĩtũrageria mũno kweherera ũndũ o wothe ũngĩtũma tũrutwo mahĩtia rĩrĩa tũkũramata kĩheo gĩkĩ kĩheanĩtwo na ũtaana.
avoiding this, lest anyone us may blame in abundance this which is being administered by us;
21 Nĩgũkorwo nĩtũrerutanĩria gwĩka maũndũ marĩa mangĩonwo magĩrĩire mbere ya Mwathani, na to harĩ we wiki, no o na ningĩ monwo marĩ magĩrĩru nĩ andũ o nao.
(We plan *N(k)O*) (for *no*) what is right not only before [the] Lord but also before men.
22 Ningĩ hamwe nao, nĩtũgũtũma mũrũ wa Ithe witũ ũngĩ, ũrĩa tuonete maita maingĩ na njĩra nyingĩ atĩ arĩ na kĩyo, o na arĩ nakĩo makĩria nĩ ũndũ wa mwĩhoko wake mũnene harĩ inyuĩ.
We sent now to them the brother of us, whom we have proven in many things often earnest to be, now however much earnest by [his] confidence more which [is] in you.
23 Naguo ũhoro wa Tito-rĩ, nĩ mũthiritũ wakwa ũrĩa tũrutithanagia wĩra nake nĩ ũndũ wanyu; na ha ũhoro ũkoniĩ ariũ a Ithe witũ-rĩ, o nĩ atũmwo a makanitha na monanagia ũgooci wa Kristũ.
Whether as regards Titus, [he is] partner of mine and for you a fellow worker; or brothers our, [they are] apostles of [the] churches, [the] glory of Christ.
24 Tondũ ũcio oniai andũ acio ũira wa wendani wanyu, na gĩtũmi kĩrĩa gĩtũmaga twĩrahe nĩ ũndũ wanyu nĩguo makanitha mone ũndũ ũcio.
Therefore the proof of the love of you and of our boasting about you to them (is showing *N(k)O*) (and *k*) in face of the churches.
