Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Timothy the brother, to the congregation of God that is at Corinth, with all the sanctified who are in the whole of Achaia.
2 Neema na ibe kwinu na amani boka kwa Nnongo Tate yitu ni Ngwana Yesu kristo.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Na asifiwe Nnongo na Tate wa Ngwana Yesu Kristo. Ywembe ni Tate wa rehema na Nnongo wa faraja yote.
Blessed is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all encouragement,
4 Nnongo utufariji twenga katika mateso yitu yote, ili panga tyweze kuafariji balo babile katika mateso. Tunaafariji wenge kwa faraja yeyelo ambayo Nnongo aitumile kutufariji twenga.
who encourages us in all our affliction, in order for us to be able to encourage those in every affliction, through the encouragement of which we ourselves are encouraged by God.
5 Kwa kuwa kati ya mateso ga Kristo uongezeka kwa ajili yitu, nyonyonyo faraja yitu uongezeka pitya Kristo.
Because, as the sufferings of the Christ abound to us, so also our encouragement abounds through the Christ.
6 Lakini kati twaataabishwa, ni kwa ajili ya faraja yinu ni wokovu winu. Na mana twafarijiwa, ni kwa ajili ya faraja yinu. Faraja yinu panga kazi kikamilifu pamwashiriki mateso kwa uvumulivu kati twenga kae twateseka.
But whether we are oppressed, it is for your encouragement and salvation, which works by endurance from the same sufferings that we also experience (and our hope for you is steadfast), or we are encouraged, it is for your encouragement and salvation,
7 Na ujasiri witu nnani yinu ni thabiti. Tutangite panga kati ya ambavyo mwatishiriki mateso, nyonyonyo mwatishiriki faraja.
knowing that, as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so also of the encouragement.
8 Kwa kuwa tupala kwaa mwenga muwe alalo, alongo, kuhusu matatizo yatubile nayo kolo Asia. Twationewa zaidi ya twatiweza potwa, kati panga tubile kwaa ni litumaini lya tama kae.
For we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, about our affliction that happened to us in Asia, because we were extraordinarily weighed down, above strength, so as for us to despair even to be alive.
9 Kweli twabile ni hukumu ya kiwo nnani yitu. Lakini yoo yabile ni kutupanga twenga tubeke kwaa litumaini nnani yitu wene, badala yake tubeke litumaini katika Nnongo, ywafufua bandu.
But we ourselves have had the sentence of death in ourselves, so that we should not be trusting in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead.
10 Ywatulopwile twenga boka ago maafa ga mauti, na alowa kutulopwa kae. Tubekite ujasiri witu katika ywembe panga alowa kutulopwa kae.
Who rescued us out of so great a death, and does rescue, in whom we have hoped that he will also still rescue.
11 Alowa panga nyoo kati ya mwenga yamwatitusaidia twenga kwa maombi ginu. Nga nyoo baingi baloa toa shukrani kwa niaba yitu kwa ajili ya upendeleo wa nema tupyilwe twenga pitya maombi ya baingi.
And of you who help together by supplication for us (a gift for us from many persons, because of many), so that there may be gratitude about you.
12 Twaipunia lee: ushuhuda wa dhamiri yitu. kwa mana ni katika nia sapi ni usapi wa Nnongo panga twatiyenda wene katika dunia. Tupangite nyoo hasa ni mwenga, na katika hekima kwaa ya ulimwengu, lakini badala yake ni pitya neema ya Nnongo.
For our pride is this (the testimony from our conscience), that we behave in the world in the simplicity and purity of God, not by fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, and especially toward you.
13 Twaandikiya kwaa chochote ambacho muweza kwaa kukisoma au elewa. Nibile na ujasiri
For we write no other thing to you, but rather what ye read or also acknowledge. And I hope ye will also acknowledge until the end,
14 panga kwa sehemu muyomwile kutuyowa. Nibile ni ujasiri katika lisoba lya Ngwana Yesu twalowa sababu yinu kwa ajili ya kiburi chinu, kati yaa mwamubile kwitu.
as also ye did acknowledge us in part, because we are your boast, just as ye also are ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.
15 Kwa mana nibile na ujasiri kuhusu lee, nipala isa kwinu kwanza, ili panga muweze pakya faida ya tembelewa mara ibele.
And in this confidence I intended to come to you earlier, so that ye might have a second benefit,
16 Nibile najiandaa kubatembelea kae wakati wakuyenda Makedonia. Kae nipala isa kubatembelea kae muda nakerebuka boka Makedonia, na boka po mwenga kunituma nenga wakati niyenga Uyahudi.
and to pass through you into Macedonia, and to come again from Macedonia to you, and by you to be helped on the way toward Judea.
17 Panibile nawasa namna yee, je nibile nasitasita? Je naandaa nakowe lingana na viwango ya bandu, ili panga nibaye, “Eloo, eloo” na Hapana, hapana” kwa muda umo?
Therefore intending this, did I accordingly employ anything in lightness? Or what I decide, do I decide according to flesh, so that it would be with me the yes, yes and the no, no?
18 Lakini kati Nnongo ya abile mwaminifu, twabaya kwaa yoti “Eloo” na “Hapana.'
But God is faithful, because our word toward you became not, yes and no.
19 Kwa kuwa mwana wa Nnongo, Yesu Kristo, ywabile Silvano, Timotheo ni nenga twabile twantangaza nkati yinu, abile kwaa “Eloo” na “Hapana.” Badala yake, ywembe wakati woti ni “Eloo.”
For the Son of God, Jesus Christ who was proclaimed among you by us (by me and Silvanus and Timothy) became not, yes and no, but in him has become, yes.
20 Kwa mana ahadi zoti za Nnongo ni “Eloo” katika ywembe. Nga nyo kae pitya ywembe twabaya 'Amina” kwa utukufu wa Nnongo.
For as many as be promises of God, in him is the Yes, and in him the Truly, for glory to God through us.
21 Nambeambe Nnongo ywaatuthibitisha twenga pamope ni mwenga katika Kristo, nga atutumile twenga.
Now he who establishes us with you in Christ, and who anointed us, is God.
22 Abekitea muhuri nnani yitu na kutupeya Roho katika mioyo yitu kati dhamana ya chelo chabile alowa kutupeya baadae.
He also is who put a seal on us, and who gave the pledge of the Spirit in our hearts.
23 Badala yake, namloba Nnongo anishuhudie nenga panga sababu yanipangile niise kwaa Korintho panga nibaelemee kwaa mwenga.
But I call God for a witness upon my soul, that I did not yet come to Corinth, sparing you.
24 Ayee ibile kwaa sababu twajaribu dhibiti jinsi imani yinu yaipalikwa kuwa, Badala yake, tupanga pamope ni mwenga kwa ajili ya puraha yinu, kati yamuyemite katika imani yinu.
Not because we lord over your faith, but are co-workmen of your joy, for by faith ye stand.
