2 VaKorinde 3
1 Tava kutangazve kuzvirumbidza here? Kana kuti tinotsvaka here, savamwe, tsamba dzinoenda kwamuri kana dzinobva kwamuri dzinotirumbidza?
Doe we begin to praise our selues againe? or neede we as some other, epistles of recommendation vnto you, or letters of recommendation from you?
2 Imi pachenyu ndimi tsamba yedu, yakanyora pamwoyo yedu, inozivikanwa uye inoverengwa navanhu vose.
Yee are our epistle, written in our hearts, which is vnderstand, and read of all men,
3 Munoonekwa kuti muri tsamba yakabva kuna Kristu, basa roushumiri hwedu, yakanyorwa, kwete neingi, asi noMweya waMwari mupenyu, kwete pamahwendefa amabwe, asi pamahwendefa emwoyo yavanhu.
In that yee are manifest, to be the Epistle of Christ, ministred by vs, and written, not with yncke, but with the Spirite of the liuing God, not in tables of stone, but in fleshly tables of the heart.
4 Kutenda kwakadai souku tinako kubudikidza naKristu pamberi paMwari.
And such trust haue we through Christ to God:
5 Kwete nokuti tinogona isu pachedu, zvokuti titi chakati ndechedu, asi kugona kwedu kunobva kuna Mwari.
Not that we are sufficient of our selues, to thinke any thing, as of our selues: but our sufficiencie is of God,
6 Akatigonesa savashumiri vesungano itsva, kwete yakanyorwa asi yoMweya; nokuti tsamba inouraya, asi Mweya anopa upenyu.
Who also hath made vs able ministers of the Newe testament, not of the letter, but of the Spirite: for the letter killeth, but the Spirite giueth life.
7 Zvino kana kushumira kwakauyisa rufu, kwakanga kwakatemwa namavara pamabwe, kwakauya nokubwinya zvokuti vaIsraeri vakanga vasingagoni kuramba vakatarisa pachiso chaMozisi nokuda kwokubwinya kwacho, kunyange kwakanga kuchipfuura hako,
If then the ministration of death written with letters and ingrauen in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel coulde not beholde the face of Moses, for the glorie of his countenance (which glorie is done away.)
8 ko, kushumira kwaMweya hakungavi nokubwinya kukuru here?
Howe shall not the ministration of the Spirite be more glorious?
9 Kana kushumira kwakauyisa kutongwa kuvanhu kuchibwinya, ko, kuzoti kushumira kunouyisa kururama kunobwinya zvikuru sei!
For if the ministerie of condemnation was glorious, much more doeth the ministration of righteousnesse exceede in glorie.
10 Nokuti chaibwinya hachisisina kubwinya zvino kana tichichienzanisa nokubwinya kunochipfuura.
For euen that which was glorified, was not glorified in this point, that is, as touching the exceeding glorie.
11 Uye kana chakanga chichizopfuura chakauya nokubwinya, ko, kuzoti chinogara chichava nokubwinya kukuru sei!
For if that which should be abolished, was glorious, much more shall that which remaineth, be glorious.
12 Naizvozvo, zvatine tariro yakadai, takashinga zvikuru.
Seeing then that we haue such trust, we vse great boldnesse of speach.
13 Hatina kufanana naMozisi aiisa chifukidziro pachiso chake kuti vaIsraeri varege kuchitarisa kupenya pakwainge kwava kupera.
And we are not as Moses, which put a vaile vpon his face, that the children of Israel should not looke vnto the ende of that which should be abolished.
14 Asi ndangariro dzavo dzakapofumadzwa, nokuti chifukidziro chimwe chetecho chichiripo kana sungano yakare ichiverengwa. Hachina kubviswa, nokuti chinongobviswa chete muna Kristu.
Therefore their mindes are hardened: for vntill this day remaineth the same couering vntaken away in the reading of the olde Testament, which vaile in Christ is put away.
15 Kunyange kusvikira zuva ranhasi kana Mozisi achiverengwa, chifukidziro chinofukidza mwoyo yavo.
But euen vnto this day, whe Moses is read, the vaile is laid ouer their hearts.
16 Asi kana munhu akatendeukira kuna She chete, chifukidziro chinobviswa.
Neuertheles when their heart shall be turned to the Lord, the vaile shalbe taken away.
17 Zvino Ishe ndiye Mweya, uye pane Mweya waShe, pano kusununguka.
Nowe the Lord is the Spirite, and where the Spirite of the Lord is, there is libertie.
18 Zvino isu, vane zviso zvisina kufukidzwa tose tinoratidza kubwinya kwaShe, tiri kushandurwa kuti tifanane naye nokubwinya kunoramba kuchiwedzerwa, kunobva kuna Ishe, anova iye Mweya.
But we al behold as in a mirrour the glory of the Lord with open face, and are changed into the same image, from glorie to glorie, as by the Spirit of the Lord.
