2 Corinthians 13
1 Khumbu yayi yintatu ndieka kuizila kuidi beno. Mambu moso mela baka nzengolo mu kimbangi ki batu buadi voti batatu.
This third time, am I coming unto you: —at the mouth of two witnesses, or three, shall every matter be established.
2 Ndilulubula bu ndiyiza mu khumbu yimmuadi kuidi beno. Ayi buabu sumbundikidi thama, ndieka buela vutukila mu diambu di batu bobo batuama vola masumu ayi mu diambu di batu boso bankaka ti bu ndiela kuiza diaka buna kadi mutu ndilendi mona kiadi ko.
I have said beforehand, and do say beforehand, —as present the second time, although now absent, unto them who before sinned, and unto all the rest, —that, if I come again, I will not spare.
3 Bila lutidi zaba ti Klisto wunyolukanga mu minu vayi luzaba ti Klisto beni kasi wulebakana ko va khatitsikꞌeno vayi widi nkua lulendo va khatitsikꞌeno.
Since, a test, ye are seeking, of the speaking in me of Christ; —who, unto you, is not weak, but is powerful in you, —
4 Ka diambu ko wufua va dikulusi mu lebakana, vayi wulembo zingi mu lulendo lu Nzambi. Mu kithuadi ayi niandi, beto mamveto tuidi balebakana; vayi tuela zingila mu lulendo lu Nzambi mu diambu dieno.
For, although he was crucified through weakness, yet is he living through God’s power, —for, although, we, are weak in him, yet shall we live with him, through God’s power [unto us]—
5 Lukifiongunina beno veka ayi lukitala mu diambu di zaba kani lulembo zingila mu minu! Luzabanga ko ti Klisto Yesu widi mu beno e? Mananga lubua mu ziphukumunu.
Be trying, yourselves, whether ye are in the faith, be putting, yourselves, to the test! Or do ye not recognise yourselves, seeing that, Jesus Christ, is in you, —unless perhaps ye fail in the testing.
6 Tsidi diana ti beno luzebi ti beto tusia bua mu ziphukumunu ko.
I hope, however, that ye shall come to know, that, we, fail not in the testing!
7 Tueti sambila Nzambi muingi lubika vanga kadi diambu dimosi di mbimbi; bika sia ti muingi tumonika batu bafuana vayi muingi beno luvanga mambu madi mamboti mu diambu beto tumonika batu babua mu phukumunu.
But we pray unto God, that ye may do nothing base, —not that, we, may appear, accepted, but that, ye, the honourable thing, may be doing, even though, we, should be, as it were, rejected;
8 Bila tulendi kakidila kiedika ko vayi tunsadilanga kaka mu kiedika.
For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth;
9 Khini yiwombo tueti mona bu tueti ba balebakana vayi beno bu luidi ngolo. Tueta lomba kuidi Nzambi mu zitsambulu zieto mu diambu beno luba batu bafuana.
For we rejoice—whensoever, we, are weak, and, ye, are, strong. This, also we pray for—your restoration: —
10 Diawu diodi ndilusonikini mambu moso mama bu ndikidi thama, muingibu ndiela ba yeno va kimosi; ndibika sadila kipfumu ayi lulendo lolo luphana Pfumu. Bila luawu luidi mu diambu di tunga vayi bika sia ti mu diambu di tulula.
For this cause, these things, while absent, am I writing, that I may not, when present, deal sharply—according to the authority which, the Lord, hath given me, for building up and not for pulling down.
11 Bakhomba baama, mbanisini kuama. Bika lubanga mu khini, lusala mu diambu di luba bafuana; lukikindisanga beno na beno, luzingilanga mu nguizani. Luzingilanga mu ndembama, buna Nzambi yi luzolo ayi yi ndembama wela ba va beno.
Finally, brethren, farewell! Be getting restored, be taking encouragement, be of one mind, live in peace, —and, the God of love and peace, will be with you.
12 Luvanasana mboti beno na beno mu besi ki kinlongo.
Salute ye one another with a holy kiss.
13 Banlongoboso badi kuaku baluveni mboti.
All the saints, salute you.
14 Bika nlemvo wu Pfumu eto Yesu Klisto, luzolo lu Nzambi ayi kithuadi ki Pheve Yinlongo bibanga yeno beno boso.
The favour of our Lord Jesus [Christ], and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.
