2 Abhakorintho 4
1 Pipo tuli ni mbombo ene, khashele shishili tuiposhile, huluma satubhakhate etamaa.
Therefore seeing we have this ministry, even as we obtained mercy, we faint not:
2 Pamandi yakwe, tukhanile amadala ngantughensoni vya vyubheele hatukhala na malibho, satibhombela shibhibhi izyo lwa Ngulubhi, awasilisye lwa lililyoli, tuwibhonesyatete zamila ya kila mutu witaziilya Ngulubhi.
but we have renounced 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 Nkashele alumbilele hwetu hwobheele, iyabhele hwabhala bhene bhabhatega.
But and if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled in them that are perishing:
4 Asalule hwabho Ungulubhi winsi ene abhapofo la enjele zyabho zyasazihweteha hahafumila habhawezya alole ulukhozyo ululambilelo umwamu wa Kristi, wali fwano gwa Nngulubhi. (aiōn g165)
in whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn [upon them]. (aiōn g165)
5 Afwatanaje satu hwitangazya tete, ila Ukristi uGosi, natitete nashi patubhalongozya hunongwa ya Yesu.
For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake.
6 Afwatane yayoyo ayanjile, “Ulukhozyo lwa ikhola afume nkisi. “Aitangazyezye moyo getu, afumye ulukhozyolwenjele yiutukufu wa Ngulubhi ubhoneshelo wa Yesu Kristi.
Seeing it is God, that said, Light shall shine out of darkness, who shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7 Lelo tubhuto muvyombo vilongo ili nkebhoneshe nguvu ingositee ya Ngulubhi sagayetu.
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the exceeding greatness of the power may be of God, and not from ourselves;
8 Tutamyashila halisagati khophelwa tulola u wasi wasi ila satukata tamaa.
[we are] pressed on every side, yet not straitened; perplexed, yet not unto despair;
9 Tuyimba hatu bhombilwe tutagwapansi satuhwangamila.
pursued, yet not forsaken; smitten down, yet not destroyed;
10 Insikuzyonti tinyemula mubele gwetu enfwa ya Yesu, aje uwomi wa Yesu uubhonehanaje mmabele getu.
always bearing about in the body the dying of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our body.
11 Ati tatuli bhomi insiku zyonti tefeziwe afwe hunongwa ya Yesu, aje uwomi wa Yesu ubho neshe mumabele getu gishibinadamu.
For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal flesh.
12 Afatanaje, ifwa ibhomba ibhomba imbombo muhati yetu.
So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
13 Ila tulinabho Umpepo alengane na lweteshilo alagane na shila shashahandiwe, “Iheteshele, esho ehayanjile.” Ate nantele tuhwiteshela antele tiyanga.
But having the same spirit of faith, according to that which is written, I believed, and therefore did I speak; we also believe, and therefore also we speak;
14 Tuminye aje ola wazyonsezye Ugosi uYesu nantele ayituzyo syaate pamo numwihale, tumenya aje ayituleta ati pamo namwe nubhoneshelo wakwe.
knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also with Jesus, and shall present us with you.
15 Shila hantu hali kwa ajili yenyu aje, neema shiwenela hwa bhantu abhinji, ensumbezyo zizi daje ahwonjelele umwamu uwa Ngulubhi.
For all things [are] for your sakes, that the grace, being multiplied through the many, may cause the thanksgiving to abound unto the glory of God.
16 Esho satu hwanza ahwolowe. Ijapo hunzi tukulupa muhati tubhombwa shipya kila lisiku.
Wherefore we faint not; but though our outward man is decaying, yet our inward man is renewed day by day.
17 Hushipindi ishi ishi ufupi amayemba yalisya ati huwomi umwamu wauzida ivipimilo vyunti. (aiōnios g166)
For our light affliction, which is for the moment, worketh for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory; (aiōnios g166)
18 Afwatanaje satizama hu vintu vyavibhoneha bali vyasagavibhoveha. Ivintu vyatigawezya avilole vyesavibhonehana vya wiwila; (aiōnios g166)
while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. (aiōnios g166)
