2 Kwabasekhorinte 1
1 UPawuli umphostoli kaJesu Kristu ngentando kaNkulunkulu, loTimothi umzalwane, kubandla likaNkulunkulu eliseKorinte, labo bonke abangcwele abakuyo yonke iAkaya:
Kalata ilafumunga kuli njame Paulo walasalwa ne Lesa kuba mutumwa wa Klistu Yesu ndi ne mukwetu Timoti, ndalembelenga ku mubungano wa bantu bashoma Lesa bali mu Kolinto ne kubanse bonse bali mucibela ca Akaya.
2 Umusa kawube kini lokuthula okuvela kuNkulunkulu uBaba wethu lakuyo iNkosi uJesu Kristu.
Inkumbo ne lumuno lwa Lesa Ishetu ne Mwami Yesu Klistu bibe ne njamwe.
3 Kabongwe uNkulunkulu, ngitsho uYise weNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu, uYise wobubele loNkulunkulu wenduduzo yonke,
Katumulumbaishani Lesa Baishi Mwami wetu Yesu Klistu Lesa wankumbo, Lesa ukute kutontosha mu nshila iliyonse,
4 osiduduza ekuhluphekeni kwethu konke, ukuze sibe lamandla okududuza abasekuhluphekeni loba yikuphi, ngenduduzo esiduduzwa ngayo thina ngokwethu nguNkulunkulu;
ukute kututontosha twaba ne mapensho kwambeti ne njafwe tucikonshe kutontosha banetu bali mu mapensho amushobo uliwonse, pakwinga ne njafwe Lesa latutontoshonga.
5 ngoba njengalokhu inhlupheko zikaKristu zengezelelekile kithi, ngokunjalo lenduduzo yethu yengezelelekile ngoKristu.
Nambi tulakumananga ne mapensho angi pacebo ca Klistu, kayi tulatontoshewanga kupitila muli Klistu.
6 Njalo loba sihlutshwa, kungokwenduduzo losindiso lwenu, okusetshenzwa ekubekezeleni kulezizinhlupheko ezifananayo esihlupheka ngazo lathi; loba siduduzwa, kungokwenduduzo losindiso lwenu;
Mapensho ngotulakumananga nawo alamupanga katonto kwambeti mupuluke, na afwe katutontoshewa ne njamwe mwela kutontoshewa kwambeti, mucikonshe kwakoma mapensho awo ne njafwe ngotulakumananga nawo.
7 njalo ithemba lethu ngani liqinile, sisazi ukuthi njengalokhu lihlanganyela ezinhluphekweni ngokunjalo lenduduzweni.
Neco kupembelela kwetu nkotukute muli njamwe nkakulatenkananga sobwe, pakwinga tucisheti mulakumananga ne mapensho akoshana ne ngotulakumananga nawo, ne njamwe ni mukacane kutontoshewa,
8 Ngoba kasithandi ukuthi lingazi, bazalwane, ngokuhlupheka kwethu okwasehlela eAsiya, ukuthi sasindwa kakhulukazi ngokungaphezu kwamandla, saze saphelelwa lithemba lelempilo.
mobanse bame, tusuni kwambeti mwinshibe lipensho ndyotwalakumana nalyo mu cimpansha ca Asiya lyalikuba linene kayi lyalatulemena cakwinseti twalapwilwa mano.
9 Kodwa thina ngokwethu sasilaso kithi isigwebo sokufa, ukuze singazithembi thina kodwa kuNkulunkulu ovusa abafileyo;
Cakubinga mu myoyo yetu twalikunyumfweti tulatambulu kendi lombolosho lwakufwa. Ici calenshika kwambeti tuleke kulishoma tobene, nsombi kwambeti tushome Lesa uyo ukute kucikonsha kupundusha bafwa.
10 owasophula ekufeni okungaka, losophulayo; esithemba kuye ukuthi uzasophula futhi.
Walatufuna mu mapensho alikuyanda kututwala kulufu, kayi nakatufune, ndashoma kwambeti na tuloshomo nakatufune,
11 Lani lisebenzela thina ndawonye ngomkhuleko, ukuze isipho somusa kithi esivela ebantwini abanengi singasibongelwa ngabanengi.
mbuli ncomukute kutunyamfwa mu mipailo yenu, neco mipailo yabantu bangi pali njafwe nikakumbulwe ne Lesa, kayi Lesa nakatuleleke. Bantu bangi nibakalumbaishe Lesa.
12 Ngoba ukuzincoma kwethu yilokhu, ubufakazi besazela sethu, ukuthi ngokungelankohliso langobuqotho bukaNkulunkulu, kungeyisikho ngenhlakanipho yenyama kodwa emuseni kaNkulunkulu, saziphatha emhlabeni, njalo ngokukhethekileyo maqondana lani.
Lino pali cintu cilatupanga kulilumbanya tobene pakwinga miyeyo yetu ilatupanga bukamboni bwa kwambeti kulikonse nkotwalapita, makamaka pakati penu, tulenshi bintu byalulama, kayi munshila yashomeka kwelana ne luyando lwa Lesa. Nkatwali kutanguninwa ne mano a muntu sobwe, nsombi lwalikuba luse lwa Lesa.
13 Ngoba kasilibhaleli okunye, kodwa loba izinto elizifundayo kumbe njalo lizivume; ngithemba futhi ukuthi lizazivuma kuze kube sekupheleni;
Makalata ngotulamulembelenga nkashupa kwabelenga ne kwanyumfwishisha, nomba ne kukabeco mulanyumfwishishingowa mbasu imo pa bintu mbyotulamulembelenga,
14 njengalokhu lathi selisivumile nganxanye, ukuthi siyikuzincoma kwenu njengalokhu lani lingabethu, osukwini lweNkosi uJesu.
nomba ndashoma kwambeti ku masuba akuntangu nimukanyumfwishishe. Pabusuba mbweshakese Mwami wetu Yesu Klistu, mwense nimukalilumbaishe cebo ca njafwe, ne njafwe tukalilumbaishe cebo ca njamwe.
15 Langalelithemba ngafisa ukuza kini kuqala, ukuze libe lomusa wesibili;
Cebo cakushoma kulico, ndayeyanga kwambeti ndimufwakashile nanshi, kwambeti mukapewe colwe mankanda abili.
16 njalo ukudlula kini ngisiya eMakedoniya, ngibuye kini futhi ngivela eMakedoniya, njalo ngidluliselwe yini eJudiya.
Ndayeyanga kwisa kumufwakashila ndakayanga ku Makedoniya kwambeti, pakufuma uko mukanyamfweko bintu bilayandikinga mu bulwendo bwakame bwa kuya ku Yudeya.
17 Ngakho ngiqonde lokho, besengisebenzisa yini ubulula? Kumbe izinto engizimisayo, ngimisa ngokwenyama yini, ukuze kube khona kimi uyebo, yebo; lohatshi, hatshi?
Sena mulayeyengeti mpondalikuyeya sha kumufwakashila ndalikuyeyeti mwana wabula mano? sena ndilyeti muntu walisuna pakwinsa bintu, uyo wela kwambeti “Ee” Kayi eti “sobwe” Pacindi cimocimo?
18 Kodwa uNkulunkulu uthembekile, ukuthi ilizwi lethu elikini kalisuye uyebo lohatshi.
Mbuli Lesa ncatabepe bantu, ncendalamulaya nkacalikuba cakusankanya maswi akwambeti “Ee”Nambi “Sobwe.”
19 Ngoba iNdodana kaNkulunkulu uJesu Kristu owatshunyayelwa yithi phakathi kwenu, yimi loSilivanu loTimothi, wayengeyisuye uyebo lohatshi, kodwa kuye kwakunguyebo.
Pakwinga Klistu Yesu Mwanendi Lesa uyo ngotwalikukambauka ame ndekali Paulo, nambi Sailasi ne Timoti, nkalikuba wakwambeti “Ee” Nambi “Sobwe” Kuli njamwe, nsombi walikuba cindi conse “Ee” Wa Lesa.
20 Ngoba zonke izithembiso zikaNkulunkulu, kuye zinguyebo, lakuye zinguAmeni, kube ludumo lukaNkulunkulu ngathi.
Nambi malayano a Lesa afula aconi mulyendiye onse akute kuba “Ee” Ecebo cakendi ncotukute kwambileti, “Ameni” Pacindi ncotukute kulumbanya Lesa.
21 Njalo osiqinisayo kanye lani kuKristu, owasigcobayo, nguNkulunkulu,
Lesa eukute kulengesha kwambeti afwe ne njamwe tube bayuminina nta muli Klistu, kayi ewalatutuma.
22 owasiphawulayo lathi, wasenika isibambiso sikaMoya enhliziyweni zethu.
Ewalatubika cando cakendi cakushomesha, kayi mumoyo wa muntu umo ne umo walatupa Mushimu Uswepa kubeti cishomesho ca bintu byeti bikese.
23 Kodwa mina ngibiza uNkulunkulu ukuthi abe ngumfakazi phezu komphefumulo wami, ukuze ngiliyekele angikezi eKorinte.
Nomba Lesa ampe cisubulo na ame nkandambanga cancinencine, capesha kwambeti mbule kwisa ku Kolinto nicakwambeti kantakamukansa kayi.
24 Kungesikuthi sibusa ukholo lwenu, kodwa siyizisebenzi ndawonye zentokozo yenu; ngoba limi ngokholo.
Nkatulamukakatishinga bintu mbyomwela kushoma sobwe, pakwinga tucishi kwambeti mukute lushomo lwayuma. Neco njafwe basebenshi banenu pacebo ca kukondwa kwenu.
