< 2 Wakorintho 13 >
1 Hii ndiyo mara ya tatu mimi kuja kwenu. “Shtaka lolote lazima lithibitishwe na mashahidi wawili au watatu.”
Third this [time] I am coming to you. In [the] mouth of two witnesses or three will be established every declaration.
2 Nimekwisha kuwaonya nilipokuwa pamoja nanyi mara ya pili. Sasa narudia wakati sipo, kwamba nikija tena sitawahurumia wale waliokuwa wametenda dhambi hapo awali na wengine wote,
I have warned and I warn, as being present the second time and being absent now (I am writing *K*) to those having sinned before and to the rest all, that if I may come to the [same] again not I will spare [anyone].
3 kwa kuwa mnadai uthibitisho kwamba Kristo anazungumza kwa kunitumia mimi. Yeye si dhaifu katika kushughulika nanyi, bali ana nguvu kati yenu.
since a proof you seek in me myself speaking of Christ who toward you not is weak but He is powerful among you.
4 Kwa kuwa alisulubiwa katika udhaifu, lakini anaishi kwa nguvu za Mungu. Vivyo hivyo, sisi tu dhaifu kupitia kwake, lakini katika kuwashughulikia ninyi tutaishi pamoja naye kwa nguvu za Mungu.
And for (if *K*) He was crucified in weakness yet He lives by power God’s; Also for we ourselves are weak in Him but (we will live *N(k)O*) with Him by power God’s toward you.
5 Jichunguzeni wenyewe mwone kama mnaishi katika imani. Jipimeni wenyewe. Je, hamtambui ya kuwa Yesu Kristo yumo ndani yenu? Kama sivyo, basi, mmeshindwa kufikia kipimo hicho!
Yourselves do examine whether you are in the faith, yourselves do test; Or surely you do recognize yourselves that Jesus Christ [is] in you (is? *k*) except surely even failing you are!
6 Natumaini mtaona kuwa sisi hatukushindwa.
I hope now that you will know that we ourselves not are unapproved.
7 Lakini tunamwomba Mungu msije mkatenda kosa lolote, si ili sisi tuonekane kuwa tumeshinda hilo jaribio, bali ili ninyi mtende lililo haki, hata kama tutaonekana kuwa tumeshindwa.
(We pray *N(K)O*) now to God not to do you wrong nothing, not that we ourselves approved may appear, but that you yourselves what [is] right may do, we ourselves though as unapproved may appear.
8 Kwa maana hatuwezi kufanya lolote kinyume na kweli, bali kuithibitisha kweli tu.
Nothing for have we power any against the truth but for the truth.
9 Tunafurahi wakati wowote sisi tunapokuwa dhaifu, lakini ninyi mkawa na nguvu. Nayo maombi yetu ni kwamba mpate kuwa wakamilifu.
We rejoice for when we ourselves may be weak, you yourselves however strong may be; But this (now *k*) also We pray for the of you perfection.
10 Hii ndiyo sababu nawaandikia mambo haya wakati sipo, ili nikija nisiwe mkali katika kutumia mamlaka yangu, mamlaka Bwana aliyonipa ya kuwajenga ninyi wala si ya kuwabomoa.
Because of therefore these things being absent I write, so that being present not with severity I may treat [you] according to the authority that the Lord has given me for building up and not for tearing down.
11 Hatimaye, ndugu zangu, kwaherini. Kuweni wakamilifu, mkafarijike, kuweni wa nia moja, kaeni kwa amani. Naye Mungu wa upendo na amani atakuwa pamoja nanyi.
Finally, brothers, do rejoice do be perfected, do be encouraged, the same do think, do be at peace, And the God of love and peace will be with you.
12 Salimianeni ninyi kwa ninyi kwa busu takatifu.
do greet one another with a holy kiss.
13 Watakatifu wote wanawasalimu.
Greet you the saints all.
14 Neema ya Bwana Yesu Kristo, na upendo wa Mungu, na ushirika wa Roho Mtakatifu ukae nanyi nyote. Amen.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit [be] with all of you (Amen *KO*) (to Corinthians second it was written from Philippi of Macedonia through of Titus and Luke. *K*)
