2 Vakolinto 1
1 une ne Paulo ne n'sung'hua ghwa Kilisite mu lughano lwa Nguluve, nu Timoteo u nyalukolo ghwitu, ku tembile ja Nguluve jino jili ku Kolinto, na vitiki vooni vano vali mukighavo kyoni ikya Akaya.
Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God--and our brother Timothy: To the Church of God in Corinth, with all God's people throughout Greece.
2 uvumosi vuuve numue nu lutengano kuhuma kwa Nguluve Nhaata ghwitu nu Mutwa Yeesu Kilisite.
May grace and peace be granted to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Aalumbwaghe uNguluve nu Nhaata ghwa Mutwa Yesu Kilisite, umwene ghwe Nhaata ghwa lusaghilo nu Nguluve ghwa luhuvisio lwoni.
Heartfelt thanks be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ--the Father who is full of compassion and the God who gives all comfort.
4 uNguluve ikutuhuvisia usue mu mhumhuko siitu sooni, neke kuuti tuwesie kuvahuvisia vala vano vali mu mhumhuko. tukuvahuvisia avange mu luhuviilo lula lula luno uNguluve alyatumiile kukutuhuvisia usue.
He comforts us in our every affliction so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any kind of affliction by means of the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
5 ulwakuva ndavule ulupumhuko lwa Kilisite lukwongelela vwimila jiitu, vule vule ulukeelo lwitu lukwongelela kukilila uKilisite.
For just as we have more than our share of suffering for the Christ, so also through the Christ we have more than our share of comfort.
6 neke ndeve mhupumusuvua vwe vwimila ulukeelo lwinu nu vuvangi vwinu. kange nave tuhuvisivua, vwe vwimila vwa luhuvilo lwinu luvomba imbombo kinyilifu pano muva mu mhumhuko ku lugudo ndavule usue pano tulyapumwike.
But if, on the one hand, we are enduring affliction, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if, on the other hand, we are receiving comfort, it is for your comfort which is produced within you through your patient fortitude under the same sufferings as those which we also are enduring.
7 nu lukangasio lwitu mu lyumue vwe vukangafu. tukagula kuuti ndeve vule fino mukilila imhumhuko, vule vule mukilila uluhuvilo.
And our hope for you is stedfast; for we know that as you are partners with us in the sufferings, so you are also partners in the comfort.
8 ulwakuva natulonda umue muve vajaasu, vanyalukolu, imhumhuko sino tulyale naso ukuo ku Asia, tulyavonelilue kukila vule tuwesia kupinda, kuuti natulyale nambe nu luhuvisio lwa kukukala kange.
For as for our troubles which came upon us in the province of Asia, we would have you know, brethren, that we were exceedingly weighed down, and felt overwhelmed, so that we renounced all hope even of life.
9 kyang'haani tulyahighilue kufua. neke uluo lulyale kukutuviika usue tuleke kuva nu luhuvisio lwitu twevene, pepano tuvike uluhuvisio lwitu kwa Nguluve, juno isyulula avafue.
Nay, we had, as we still have, the sentence of death within our own selves, in order that our confidence may repose, not on ourselves, but on God who raised the dead to life.
10 alyatupokile usue kuhuma muvufue, ilikutupoka kange. tuvikile ulukangasio lwitu mwa mwene kuuti ilikutupoka kange.
He it is who rescued us from so imminent a death, and will do so again; and we have a firm hope in Him that He will also rescue us in all the future,
11 akavombile ndiki ndavule umue pano mukututanga mu nyifunyo siinu. pe pani vinga vilikuvahongesia kukilila usue vwimila ulughano ulukome vwa vumosi vuno tupelilue usue kukilila inyifunyo sa vinga,
while you on your part lend us your aid in entreaty for us, so that from many lips thanksgivings may rise on our behalf for the boon granted to us at the intercession of many.
12 tukughinia mu ili: amasio gha masaghe ghiitu. ulwakuva vwe vufumbue uvunono nu vuvalafu vwa Nguluve kuuti tulyalutiile jusue mu sa iisi. tuvombile ndiki kyongo numue, nakwekuti mu vukoola vwa iisi, neke pepano mu vumosi vwa Nguluve.
For the reason for our boasting is this--the testimony of our own conscience that it was in holiness and with pure motives before God, and in reliance not on worldly wisdom but on the gracious help of God, that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and above all in our relations with you.
13 natukuvalembela kyokyoni kino namuwesia kukwimba na kukwelevua. nili nu vukangasio.
For we are writing to you nothing different from what we have written before, or from what indeed you already recognize as truth and will, I trust, recognize as such to the very end;
14 kuuti lubale mutwelevilue. nili nu lukangasio kuuti ikighono kya Mutwa Yeesu tuliva vwimila mu kidada kiinu, ndavule fino muliiva kulyusue.
just as some few of you have recognized us as your reason for boasting, even as you will be ours, on the day of Jesus our Lord.
15 ulwakuva nilyale nu vukangafu mu ili, nikanoghilue kukwisa kulyumue taasi, neke kuuti muwesie kukwupila uluvumbulilo ulwa kughendelua kavili.
It was because I entertained this confidence that I intended to visit you before going elsewhere--so that you might receive a twofold proof of God's favour--
16 nikale nipanga kukuvaghendela un'siki ghuno niluta kuMakedonia, kange un'siki ghuno nigomoka kuhuma kuMakedonia, munue kukun'sugha un'siki ghuno niluta kuvuYahudi.
and to pass by way of Corinth into Macedonia. Then my plan was to return from Macedonia to you, and be helped forward by you to Judaea.
17 pano nilyale nisagha mu ili, pe nikale nikana kana? pe nipanga imbombo kuling'hana nu vukome vwa vumuunhu, neke kuuti niti “Eyo, ndali” ni “Ndali, “Ndali” mu n'siki ghumo?
Did I display any vacillation or caprice in this? Or the purposes which I form--do I form them on worldly principles, now crying "Yes, yes," and now "No, no"?
18 neke hwene vule uNguluve nywilifu, natujova fyoni kuuti “Eyo” ni “Ndali”
As certainly as God is faithful, our language to you is not now "Yes" and now "No."
19 ulwakuva umwana ghwa Nguluve, uYesu Kiisite juno uSilvano, uTimoteo nune tulyapulisie kulyumue, nakwekuti “eyo” na kuti “ndali” umwene ghwe “Eyo” un'siki ghwoni.
For Jesus Christ the Son of God--He who was proclaimed among you by us, that is by Silas and Timothy and myself--did not show Himself a waverer between "Yes" and "No." But it was and always is "Yes" with Him.
20 ulwakuva ulufingo lwoni lwa Nguluve lwe Eyo. nwkw lino kukilila umwene tuuti Ameni ku vwimike vwa nguluve.
For all the promises of God, whatever their number, have their confirmation in Him; and for this reason through Him also our "Amen" acknowledges their truth and promotes the glory of God through our faith.
21 lino ghwe Nguluve juno ikutwimisia usue palikimo numue mwa Kilisite, kange alyatusung'hile usue.
But He who is making us as well as you stedfast through union with the Anointed One, and has anointed us, is God,
22 alyavikile ikivalilua pakyanya jiitu kange akatupeela uMhepo mu numbula siitu ndavule uvuvaha vwa kila kino ale ikutupeela uviise.
and He has also set His seal upon us, and has put His Spirit into our hearts as a pledge and foretaste of future blessing.
23 pe pano nikun'suuma uNguluve, am'bule une lweluki lunolunivombile une kuleka kukwisa ku Kolitho kuuti nilava n'sigho kulyumue.
But as for me, as my soul shall answer for it, I appeal to God as my witness, that it was to spare you pain that I gave up my visit to Corinth.
24 ulu nakwekuti tughesia kusigha ndavule ulwitiko lwinu vuno lunoghiile kuuva. pepano tuvomba palikimo numue vwimila mu lukeelo lwinu, ndavule pano mukwima mu lwitiko lwinu.
Not that we want to lord it over you in respect of your faith--we do, however, desire to help your joy--for in the matter of your faith you are standing firm.
