2 Akorinitho 9

1 Na rĩrĩ, ndikuona harĩ bata ndĩmwandĩkĩre ũhoro wa ũteithio ũrĩa wagĩrĩire kũheo andũ arĩa aamũre.

Concerning now for the service for the saints excessive for me it is to write to you;

2 Nĩgũkorwo nĩnjũũĩ kĩyo kĩanyu gĩa kwenda gũteithia, na nĩngoretwo ngĩĩrahĩra ũndũ ũcio kũrĩ andũ a Makedonia, ngameera atĩ kuuma mwaka ũcio ũrathirire, inyuĩ andũ a Akaia mũtũire mwĩhaarĩirie kũheana; na kĩyo kĩu kĩanyu nĩkĩo kĩarahũrĩte aingĩ ao.

I know for the readiness of you which concerning you I boast of to Macedonians, that Achaia has prepared itself from a year ago, and (*N(k)O*) (from *k*) your zeal has been provoking the greater number.

3 No nĩngũtũma ariũ a Ithe witũ nĩguo kwĩraha gwitũ nĩ ũndũ wanyu ũhoro-inĩ ũyũ wa mũhothi gũtigatuĩke gwa tũhũ, no mũgaakorwo mwĩhaarĩirie, o ta ũrĩa ndoigire atĩ nĩmwĩharĩirie.

I have sent however the brothers, that not the boasting of us which [is] about you may be made void in matter this, that even as I was saying having prepared yourselves you may be,

4 Nĩgũkorwo andũ amwe a Makedonia mangĩrehane na niĩ makore mũtehaarĩirie-rĩ, ithuĩ, o na tũtekũmũgweta-rĩ, nĩtũgaaconoka nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo tũmwĩhokeete.

lest perhaps maybe shall come with me myself Macedonians and shall find you unprepared, shall be put to shame we ourselves — that not (I may say *N(k)O*) you yourselves — in confidence this (of boasting. *K*)

5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, nĩndĩronire arĩ wega gũthaitha ariũ a Ithe witũ maambe mamũceerere ihinda rĩu rĩtanakinya, nĩguo marĩkĩrĩrie mĩbango ya kĩheo kĩa ũtaana kĩrĩa mweranĩire. Hĩndĩ ĩyo kĩheo kĩu nĩgĩgakorwo kĩrĩ ho, na kĩheanĩtwo na kwĩyendera, no ti na kũringĩrĩrio.

Necessary therefore I esteemed [it] to exhort the brothers that they may go before (into *NK(o)*) you and may complete beforehand the (having pre-promised *N(K)O*) blessing of you this ready to be thus as a blessing and not (as *N(k)O*) covetousness.

6 Ririkanai ũũ: Mũndũ ũrĩa ũhaandaga tũnini akaagetha o tũnini, nake ũrĩa ũhaandaga nyingĩ akaagetha nyingĩ.

This now: The [one] sowing sparingly sparingly also will reap, and the [one] sowing upon blessings upon blessings also will reap.

7 O mũndũ aagĩrĩirwo nĩkũheana kĩrĩa atuĩte na ngoro yake nĩekũheana, na ndakaheane atekwenda kana taarĩ kũringĩrĩrio, nĩgũkorwo Ngai endaga mũndũ ũrĩa ũheanaga akenete.

each even as (he himself has purposed *N(k)O*) in the heart, not out of regret or of necessity; a cheerful for giver loves God.

8 Nake Ngai arĩ na ũhoti wa gũtũma mũingĩhĩrwo nĩ maũndũ mothe ma wega wake, nĩguo maũndũ-inĩ mothe na mahinda-inĩ mothe, mũkoragwo na kĩrĩa gĩothe mũbatarĩtio nĩkĩo, nĩguo mũkoragwo mũingĩhĩtie indo cia kũruta wĩra o wothe mwega.

(is able *N(k)O*) now God all grace to make abound to you, so that in every [way] always all sufficiency having you may abound in every work good

9 O ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Nĩahurunjĩte iheo ciake akahe andũ arĩa athĩĩni; ũthingu wake ũtũũraga nginya tene na tene.” (aiōn g165)

Even as it has been written: He has scattered abroad, He has given to the poor, the righteousness of Him abides to the age. (aiōn g165)

10 Na rĩrĩ, ũrĩa ũheaga mũhandi mbeũ na akamũhe irio cia kũrĩa, nĩarĩmũheaga mbeũ cia kũhaanda, na atũme cingĩhe, na ongerere magetha ma ũthingu wanyu.

The [One] now supplying (seed *N(k)O*) to him sowing and bread for food (will supply *N(k)O*) and (will multiply *N(k)O*) the seed for sowing of you and (will increase *N(k)O*) the (fruits *N(k)O*) of the righteousness of you.

11 Na inyuĩ nĩmũrĩtongagio na njĩra ciothe nĩguo mũheanage na ũtaana hĩndĩ ciothe, naguo ũtaana wanyu, nĩ ũndũ wa wĩra witũ, ũtũmage Ngai acookagĩrio ngaatho.

in every [way] enriching you to all generosity, which produces through us thanksgiving to God,

12 Ũteithio ũyũ mũraruta ti kuuga atĩ no andũ a Ngai mũrahingĩria mabata mao, no nĩũtũmaga Ngai acookagĩrio ngaatho na njĩra nyingĩ.

For the ministry of the service this not only is completely filling up the needs of the saints but also is overflowing through many thanksgivings to God;

13 Na tondũ wa ũtungata ũcio mwĩonanĩtie naguo ũrĩa mũhaana-rĩ, andũ nĩmarĩgoocaga Ngai nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa mwathĩkĩire Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa Kristũ ũrĩa muumbũraga atĩ nĩmũwĩtĩkĩtie-rĩ, na nĩ ũndũ wa ũtaana wanyu wakũgwatanĩra nao o na wakũgwatanĩra na andũ arĩa angĩ othe.

through the proof of the service this [they] glorifying God at the submission of the of confession of you to the gospel of Christ and to [the] generosity of the participation toward them and toward all,

14 Na rĩrĩa mekũmũhoera, ngoro ciao nĩimwĩciiragia, tondũ wa ũrĩa wega wa Ngai ũrĩa inyuĩ mũheetwo ũkĩrĩrĩirie kũingĩha.

and by their supplication for you a longing for you on account of the surpassing grace of God upon you.

15 Ngai arocookerio ngaatho nĩ ũndũ wa kĩheo gĩake kĩrĩa gĩtangiugĩka na ciugo ũrĩa gĩtariĩ!

Thanks [be] (now *k*) to God for the indescribable of Him gift!
