2 Wakorintu 4
1 Su, kwa lusungu lyakuwi Mlungu, katupanana lihengu ali tulitendi, na hapeni tuwuyi kumbeli.
Wherefore, having this ministry, as we have received mercy, we do not falter;
2 Tuvileka nakamu vitwatira vyoseri vya soni na vya bada. Tulikala kayi ndiri muupayira, ama kwa kushipotoziya shisoweru sha Mlungu, kumbiti twankufunda unakaka pota na kufifa kuwalangawaziya wantu ntambu yatuwera. Shakapanu womberi hawavimani mumyoyu mwawu kuwera twenga tutakula nakaka.
but have commanded away the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by the manifestation of the truth, commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
3 Handa Shisoweru Shiwagira shatushibwera shilififa, su shilififa hera kwa walii wawagamira.
If then, indeed, our gospel be vailed, it is vailed among the destroyed;
4 Womberi wamini ndiri toziya Shetani mlungu gwa pasipanu, katula luwindu mumahala gawu nuwawona lupalahera ulangala wa Shisoweru Shiwagira sha ukwisa wa Kristu, yakalifaniti nakamu na Mlungu kwa ntambu zyoseri. (aiōn g165)
among whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, might shine into them. (aiōn g165)
5 Toziya tulibwera ndiri twaweni, kumbiti tumubwera Yesu Kristu yakawera Mtuwa na twenga tuwera wantumintumi wenu toziya ya Yesu.
Now, we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants, for Jesus' sake.
6 Mlungu ulaa ayu yakalongiti, “Ulangala na ulangaliri kulawa muluwindu,” Ndo yakalangalira myoyu ya twenga na kutupanana ulangala wa kuvimana ukwisa wa Mlungu musheni sha Yesu Kristu.
For God, who commanded light to shine out of darkness, has shined into our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7 Kumbiti twenga yatuwera na luhanja alu, tuwera gambira vyombu vya utapaka, su iwoneki pota na kufifa kuwera likakala ali likulu lilawa ndiri kwa twenga, kumbiti lilawa kwa Mlungu.
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power might be of God, and not of us.
8 Wega zyoseri tufintirwa, kumbiti tuyonerwa ndiri, tuwera na lyoga, kumbiti tuwuya ndiri kumbeli,
We are pressed on every side, but not straitened; perplexed, but not in despair;
9 twana wangondu wavuwa, kumbiti Mlungu katuleka ndiri pota na utanga, tembera tugusiwa pasi, kumbiti tutenduwa ndiri.
persecuted, but not utterly forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.
10 Mashaka goseri tutola howa ya Yesu munshimba mwetu, su ukomu wakuwi Yesu viraa ulanguziwi munshimba zyetu.
At all times carrying about in the body, the putting to death of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our body.
11 Shipindi shatulikala, mashaka goseri tulavilwa kuhowa kwajili ya Yesu, su ukomu wakuwi Yesu ulanguziwi munshimba zyetu zyazihowa.
For we who live are always exposed to death for the sake of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal flesh.
12 Su kuhowa kutenda lihengu mngati mwa twenga, kumbiti ukomu utenda lihengu mngati mwa mwenga.
So that death works in us, but life in you.
13 Malembu Mananagala galonga, “Njimiriti, su ntakuliti.” Na twenga viraa, patuwera na rohu iraa ayi ya njimiru, twenga viraa tutakula toziya tujimira.
Yet, having the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, "I believed, therefore I have spoken"; we, also, believe, and therefore speak;
14 Nakaka tuvimana kuwera Mlungu, ndo yakamzyusiyiti Mtuwa Yesu, viraa vilii hakatuzyukisiyi twenga pamuhera na Yesu na kututula pamuhera na mwenga kulongolu kwakuwa.
knowing that he who raised up the Lord Jesus, will raise us up, also, by Jesus, and will present us with you.
15 Goseri aga ndo kwa mota ya mwenga, ata manemu ga Mlungu pagawafikira wantu nentu na nentu, mayagashii kwa Mlungu gongereki nentu, wantu wampanani ukwisa Mlungu.
For all these things are for your sakes; that the favor which has abounded to many, may, through the thanksgiving of the greater number, redound to the glory of God.
16 Toziya ayi hapeni tuwuyi kumbeli, ata handa nshimba zyetu zihowa, kumbiti rohu zya twenga zitendwa zyasyayi kila lishaka.
Wherefore, we do not faint; but, though, indeed, out outward man is impaired, yet the inward man is renewed, day by day.
17 Ntabika zyatutabika ndidini hera na zya katepu hera, kumbiti hayitupanani ukwisa wa mashaka goseri yauwongereka nentu. (aiōnios g166)
For our momentary light afflictions work out for us an eternal weight of glory, great beyond expression; (aiōnios g166)
18 Su natuvilola vilii vyaviwoneka, kumbiti tuviloli hweri vintu vyaviwoneka ndiri. Toziya vyaviwoneka vilikala katepu hera, kumbiti vilii vyaviwoneka ndiri vyankulikala mashaka goseri. (aiōnios g166)
while we are aiming, not at things seen, but at things unseen: for the things seen are temporal, but the things unseen are eternal. (aiōnios g166)
