2 Bakolinto 5
1 “Tucinshi cena kwambeti mibili yetu yapacishi capanshi pano, mushakasa uwu wakapwaika, nitukafwale mibili njatubambila Lesa kwilu, ng'anda yabula kwibakwa ne makasa abantu, ng'anda yacindi conse. (aiōnios g166)
We know for that if the earthly of us house the tent shall be destroyed, a building from God we have, a house not made with hands eternal in the heavens. (aiōnios g166)
2 Tulatongelenga mu ng'anda iyi njotulekalangamonga, pakwinga tulayandishishinga kwambeti Lesa akatwikalike mu ng'anda yetu ya kwilu.
And indeed in this we groan, the dwelling of us which [is] from heaven to be clothed with longing;
3 Twakaifwala nteti tukacanike matakosha sobwe,
(If even *NK(o)*) even (having put off *N(K)O*) not naked we will be found.
4 Pakwinga cino cindi ncotuli mu mushakasa uwu tulatongelenga cebo ca kulemenwa mikuli, nomba nteko kuyanda kufulula nsulo uwu mushakasha sobwe, nsombi kwambeti twakafwala ng'anda yetu ya kwilu mibili iyi ikute kufwa ikaminwe ne buyumi.
And for those being in the tent we groan being burdened, (because *N(k)O*) that not we do wish to be unclothed but to be clothed, that may be swallowed up the mortal by life.
5 Lesa mwine elatubambili kushinta uku nekutupa Mushimu Uswepa kuba cishomesho cabyonse mbyatubambila.
The [One] now having prepared us for very this [is] God, (and *k*) having given to us the pledge of the Spirit.
6 Neco cindi conse twashometi twacibanga ne mibili iyi yabuntu, Mwami Yesu Klistu ukute kacili kutali nenjafwe.”
being confident therefore always and knowing that being at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord;
7 Pakwinga tulendenga mu lushomo, ntebyo bintu mbyotulabononga ne menso.
through faith for we walk, not through sight,
8 Ndambangeti, tukute lushomo lwakwambeti inga twifulula mibili iyi ne kuya kwikala pamo ne Mwami.
We are confident now and we are pleased rather to be absent out of the body and to be at home with the Lord.
9 Kupita bintu byonse, tulelekeshenga kumukondwelesha Mwami Yesu, nambi pacindi ncotucili twekala pepi nendiye, nambi katuli.
Therefore also we are ambitious, whether being at home or being away, well-pleasing to Him to be;
10 Pakwinga twense nitukabonekele kuli Klistu kwambeti atomboloshe. “Muntu uliyense nakatambulenga kwelana ne ncito nshainsanga mu buyumi bwakendi, shaina nambi shaipa.”
For all of us to be revealed it behooves before the judgment seat of Christ, that may receive back each the [things done] in the body according to what he did, whether good or (evil. *N(k)O*)
11 Neco caina kutina Mwami Lesa, ecebo cakendi tulabayuminishinga bantu kwambeti bese kuli Lesa. Lesa utwinshi cena, kayi ndashoma kwambeti ne njamwe mutwinshi cena.
Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord men we persuade to God and we have been made manifest; I hope now also in the consciences of you to have been made manifest.
12 Nkatulalituntunga sobwe, nsombi tulelekeshenga kumupa citondesho cela kumutwangisha cebo ca njafwe, kwambeti mukacikonshe kubakumbula abo balalumbanyanga muntu ncalaleshenga kunsa kupita kwishiba muntu ncabele mukati mu moyo.
Not (for *k*) again ourselves are we commending to you, but occasion are giving to you of boasting on behalf of us, so that you may have [an answer] toward those in appearance boasting and (not *N(k)O*) (in *no*) [the] heart.
13 Neco na twafulungana mano, twafulunganina Lesa. Na tulabonekenga bantu bakute mano, nipacebo cenu.
If for we are crazy, [it is] for God; or if we are sober-minded [it is] for you.
14 Lusuno lwa Klistu lulatutangunininga, pakwinga lino tucinsheti muntu umo walafwila bantu bonse, uku ekwambeti bonse balamantamo lubasu mu lufu lwakendi.
The for love of Christ compels us having concluded this, that (if *k*) One for all has died; therefore all have died.
15 Klistu walafwila twense, kwambeti abo bakute buyumi kabatayandangowa kulikondwelesha bonka, nsombi bakondweleshenga uyo walafwa ne kupunduka ku bafu cebo ca endibo.
And for all He died, that those living no longer to themselves may live but to the [One] for them having died and having been raised again.
16 Pacino cindi katulekani kombolosha bantu, kupitila mu mano abuntu bwetu. Nambi kaindi twalikuyeya sha Klistu kwelana ne mano abuntu onka, nsombi pacino cindi nkatwela kwinseco sobwe.
Therefore we ourselves from now no [one] know according to [the] flesh; If (now *k*) even we have regarded according to flesh Christ, yet now no longer no longer we regard [Him thus].
17 Neco lino uyo muntu lalipamankanya kuli Klistu laba cibumbwa ca lino lino, cakaindi cilapiti, laba walino lino.
Therefore if anyone [is] in Christ, [he is] a new creation; The old things have passed away, behold has come into being new (all things. *K*)
18 Lesa ewalenseci kwambeti kupitila mu lufu lwa Klistu, afwe twalikuba balwani tube banendi, ne kutupa ncito yakuleta bantu nabambi kulyendiye kuba banendi.
And all things [are] of God the [One who] having reconciled us to Himself through (Jesus *K*) Christ and having given to us the ministry of reconciliation,
19 Ncotulapandululunga nicakwambeti Lesa labambanga bwineshi pakati pali njafwe nendiye, kupitila muli Klistu. Lesa wafuta bwipishi bonse pakutupa mulumbe ngotulamwayanga weshi kuleta lumuno.
how for God was in Christ [the] world reconciling to Himself, not reckoning to them the trespasses of them, and having put into us the word of reconciliation.
20 Afwe njafwe tulamwimanininga Klistu, kayi Lesa lamusengenga kwambeti munyumfwe mulumbe ngotulakambaukunga. Tulambanga makani a Klistu kayi ne kumusengeti mubweshane ne Lesa
For Christ therefore we are ambassadors, as though God is beseeching through us; We implore on behalf of Christ: do be reconciled to God.
21 Klistu nkalikuba ne bwipishi sobwe, nomba Lesa walamutwika bwipishi bonse bwa bantu kwambeti kupitila mulyendiye tucane bululami bwa Lesa.
The [One] (for *k*) not having known sin for us sin He made, so that we ourselves (may become *N(k)O*) [the] righteousness of God in Him.
