2 Wakorintu 1
1 Neni Paulu, ntumintumi gwa Yesu Kristu kwa mafiliru ga Mlungu pamuhera na mlongu gwetu Timotewu twankuwalamusiyani. Tuwalembelerani mwenga shipinga sha wantu yawamjimira Yesu aku Korintu, na kwa wantu woseri wa Mlungu kila pahala Muakaya.
To the Church of God which is in Corinth, and to all the saints throughout Greece. from Paul, by God’s will an apostle of Christ, and from brother Timothy.
2 Manemu na ponga zazilawa kwa Mlungu Tati gwetu na Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu gaweri pamuhera na mwenga.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father in the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Kakwiswi Mlungu Tati gwa Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu, Tati yakawera na lusungu na Mlungu yakawakola mawoku muvitwatira vyoseri.
Thanks be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort,
4 Yomberi katukola mawoku muntabika zoseri, su tupati kuwatanga wamonga mukila ntabika, gambira Mlungu ntambu yakatukola mawoku twenga.
who ever comforts me in all my troubles, so that I may be continually able to comfort those who are in any trouble by the comfort with which God is ever comforting me.
5 Yina, ntambu ya ntabika ya Kristu yayiyongereka mngati mwetu na twenga viraa vilii twongereka kukolwa mawoku na Kristu.
For just as I have more than my share in the sufferings of the Christ, so also through the Christ I have more than my share of comfort.
6 Handa patutabika, twankutabika su mwenga mutangwi na kulopoziwa. Patukolwa mawoku, viraa vilii na mwenga mkolwa mawoku na kuwapanana makakala ga kuhepelera ntabika zilaa azi zyatuhepelera.
If I am afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if I am receiving comfort, it is for your comfort - a comfort produced within you by your patient fortitude, under the same sufferings which I also am enduring.
7 Su matumbiru gatuwera naga kwa mwenga ndo makulu nentu, toziya tuvimana kuwera nakaka pamtabika pamuhera natwenga, viraa vilii mwankukolwa mawoku gambira twenga ntambu yatukolwa mawoku.
My hope for you is firm; for I know that as you are comrades in my sufferings, so also are you comrades in my comfort.
8 Walongu, tufira tuwaholuziyani ntabika zyazitupatiti Asiya kulii. Ntabika azi ziweriti nkulu kuliku makakala ga twenga, ata tuweriti ndiri na litumbiru lyoseri lya kulikala.
Now, brothers, I want you to know about the troubles which befell me in Asia; how I was burdened altogether beyond my strength, so that I renounced all hope even of life itself.
9 Kumbiti mumioyu ya twenga iweriti handa tutozwitwi kulagwa, su tufundwi kuwera natulitumbira twaweni, kumbiti tumtumbiri Mlungu yakawazyukisiya yawahowiti.
Indeed, I had in myself, and still have, the sentence of death, in order that I might not rely on myself, but on God who raises the dead to life.
10 Yomberi katulopoziyiti mukuhowa gambira atali, nayomberi hakatulopoziyi, na twenga tumtumbira yomberi kuwera hakatulopoziyi kayi.
He delivered me from such a death, and will deliver me. On him I have set my hopes that he will continue to deliver me,
11 Mwenga mwankututanga kwa kutuluwira kwa Mlungu. Su kuluwa kwa mwenga kwa Mlungu, hakujimilwi, na Mlungu hakatutekeleri na wantu wavuwa hawalongi mayagashii Mlungu toziya ya twenga.
while all of you also are helping me by your prayers; so that from many lips thanksgiving may rise on my behalf for the blessings vouchsafed to me through the intercessions of many.
12 Twenga tulitumbira shintu shimu hera, nfiru yatwenga itulanguziya nakaka kuwera kulikala kwa twenga pasipanu na nentu kulikolerana pamuhera na mwenga, tulikaliti kwa unanagala na uherepa wa moyu gwakatupananiti Mlungu, tulonguziwiti ndiri na luhala lwa wantu, kumbiti manemu ga Mlungu.
For this is my proud boast, the testimony of my conscience, that it was in holiness and with pure motives before God, not in worldly wisdom, but in the grace of God, that I have conducted myself in the world, and above all in my relations with you.
13 Twankuwalembirani mwenga vitwatira vyamuviweza kuvibetula na kuvimana. Nakulitumbira kuwera hamgamani hweri,
For I am writing to you nothing different from what you read aloud and very well recognize, and I hope will continue to recognize to the very end,
14 toziya mpaka vinu mmana katepu hera. Tuvimana kuwera shakapanu hamuvimani na hamututumbiri twenga gambira twenga ntambu yatulitumbira mulishaka lya Mtuwa gwetu Yesu.
as some indeed did recognize in part at last, that I am your cause of boasting, just as you will be mine on the Day of Jesus our Lord.
15 Neni pawera na matumbiru aga, nfiriti kuwatyangira mwenga kwanja su mwenga hamtekelerwi mala mbili.
And in this confidence I intended to visit you, before going elsewhere, that you might have a pleasure twice over.
16 Nfiriti kuwatyangira mwenga pampiti kugenda Makedoniya na pambuya kwa mwenga kulawa mumkowa gwa Makedoniya, su muntangi mumwanja gwangu gwa kugenda Yudeya.
I intended to go by you into Macedonia, and to come again to you from Macedonia, and by you to be sent forward on my way to Judea.
17 Hashi, mulihola pampangiti hangu neni nwera gambira muntu yakahera na ugolokeru? Hashi, mulihola kuwera neni amuwa kwa maholu ga untu na kuwera ntakula “Yina, yina” Na “Ndala, ndala” Palaa panu?
In purposing this did I display "caprice"? Or what I purpose do I purpose in a worldly way, so that it may mean either "Yes, yes," or "No, no"?
18 Mlungu ndo mwaminika, su shilii shatuwagambiriti mwenga, shitwatira ndiri sha “Yina” Na “Ndala” Palaa panu.
As God is faithful, my message to you is not now "Yes," now "No."
19 Toziya Yesu Kristu, Mwana gwa Mlungu, ndomweni neni na Silwanu na Timotewu tumubweriti kwa mwenga, kaweriti ndiri muntu gwa “Yina” Na “Ndala,” Kumbiti yomberi kwakuwi kwana “Yina” Ya Mlungu mashaka goseri.
For Jesus Christ, Son of God, who was proclaimed among you by us, that is, by Silvanus and Timothy and me, was not wavering between "Yes" and "No," but in him is the everlasting "Yes."
20 Toziya malagilu goseri ga Mlungu gawera “Yina” Mukristu. Su kupitira mweni “Yina haa” yankulonga kwatwenga kwa ukwisa wa Mlungu.
For however many are the promises of God, in him they are "Yes." Therefore also through him let the Amen be said by our voices to the glory of God.
21 Mlungu mweni yakatenda twenga pamuhera na mwenga mumakaliru getu tukolerani pamuhera na Kristu, Mlungu mweni yakatusyaguliti,
And he who has established me with you in the Anointed One, and has anointed me, is God.
22 yomberi yakatumatikiti shilangaziwu kulanguziya kuwera twenga twawantu wakuwi na kutupanana twenga Rohu Mnanagala mumioyu ya twenga kaweri lilangaliru lyalitulitwi kwajili ya twenga.
He has also set his seal upon me, and given me the pledge of his Spirit in my heart.
23 Mlungu ndo kapitawu gwangu, yomberi kagumana moyu gwa neni. Neni niziti ndiri kayi Korintu kuwatenda muweri na utama.
But for my part I call God to witness, as my soul shall answer for it, that it was to spare you that I came not to Corinth
24 Tufira ndiri kuwalonguziya kwa makakala munjimiru yenu, mwenga mgangamala munjimiru yenu. Twenga tutenda lihengu pamuhera kwa nemeleru ya mwenga.
(not that I am attempting to lord it over your faith, but rather to work with you for your happiness); for your faith is stedfast.
