2 Corinthians 4
1 Wherefore, having this ministry, even as we received mercy, we faint not;
Pwu lino, tulinimbombo iyi, nduvu tuyupilile uluhungu, satugatala.
2 But have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully, —but, by the manifestation of the truth, commending ourselves unto every conscience of men, in the sight of God.
Pwu tubelile injila nchoni inchasoni ni ncho nche yuvelile, satutama ni lyoyo Khange satuvombile uvuvivi ilimenyu lya Nguluve. Upwu tuhilikha iyivile lweli, tukhivonesya yufwe kwu nyivonelo nche munu kuvulongolo kwa Nguluve.
3 And, even if our glad-message is veiled, in them who are perishing, it is veiled,
Pwu ingave iliangili lyetu lye yuvelile, lye yuvelile khuvala aviyaga.
4 In whom, the god of this age, hath blinded the minds of the unbelieving, to the end they may not discern the radiance of the glad-message of the glory of the Christ—who is the image of God. (aiōn g165)
Mu vuhaliwa vwa vene, unguluve va pakhilunga lwavo ulusalukhwedikha. Pwu savakhaluvone ulumuli lwa livangili ilivalache lya Kilisti, uvi khihwani kya Nguluve. (aiōn g165)
5 For, not ourselves, do we proclaim, but Christ Jesus, as Lord, and, ourselves, as your servants for Jesus’ sake.
Ulwakhuva satukhwenchova yufwe, ila uNkilisti uYesu unkolodeva nufwe twevene tulivavombi vinyo kwa Yisu.
6 Because, the God who said—Out of darkness, light shall shine! [is he] who hath shone in our hearts, in proportion to the radiance of the glorious knowledge of God, in the face of Christ.
Ulwakhuva Unguluve vi akhanchova, “Ulumuli tumulekha khuhisi.” Amulikhe munumbula nchenyo ukhuhumya uluhala uluvalanche ulwa Nguluve pwu khuvepo khwa Yesu Kristi.
7 Howbeit we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that, the surpassing greatness of the power, may be of God, and not from ourselves: —
Pwu lino tulinikhibana ikhi mufyombo fya ng'anga lipulikhikhe ukhuta amaka amavaha ficho ga Nguluve sageto.
8 On every side, pressed hard, but not hemmed in, without a way, but not without a by-way,
Tukhatala satuchungutilewe. Twivona masiakho lakini satu khwegwisya nukhuvuye kunsana.
9 Pursued, but not abandoned, thrown down, but not destroyed; —
Tuteseke satwiyaga. Tutaagiwa satulemala.
10 At all times, the putting to death of Jesus, in our body, bearing about, in order that, the life also of Jesus, in our body, may be made manifest;
Ifigino fyoni twigega emivili gyetu uvufwe wa Yesu, pwu uvwumi vwa Yesu vavoneke mu mivili gyetu.
11 For, evermore, we, the living, unto death are being delivered, for Jesus’ sake, in order that, the life also of Jesus, may be made manifest in our mortal flesh:
Ufwe twituvile vumi ifigono fyoni tuhuminchiwa ukhufwa kwa Yesu, pwu uvumi vwa Yesu vovonekhage mmivili gyetu igya vumunu.
12 So that, his death, in us, doth energise, but, his life, in you.
Ulwakhuva uvufwe vuvomba mbombo yetu mgata ndyufwe, pwu uvuvumi vuvomba imbombo mgati ndyumwe.
13 Howbeit, seeing that we have the same spirit of faith, according to that which is written—I believed, therefore I spake, we, also believe, therefore also we speak:
Pwu tulini numbula yila yila iya lwidikho ukhukhongana: “Nikhidikhe puwu nikhanchova.” Nayufwe khange twikhwidikhe, khange twinchova.
14 Knowing that, he who raised up [the Lord] Jesus, will raise up, us also, together with Jesus, and will present [us] together with you.
Tulumanyile ukuva ula uvianchusicha unkuludeva uYisu pwu ayikhutunchusya nayufwe paninie numwe. Tunajua kuwa atatuleta sisi pamoja nanyi katika ukhuvepo nu mwene.
15 For, all things, are for your sakes, in order that, the favour abounding, may, through means of the greater number, cause, the thanksgiving, to superabound unto the glory of God.
Khila khinu pokhile khinyo umwukhivelile ikhisa vukhiluta kwu vanu vingi, imwalimu yikula kwu vuvalanche vwa Nguluve.
16 Wherefore we faint not, but, even if, our outer man, is decaying, nevertheless, our inner [man], is renewing day by day.
Pwu lino satwivuya kunsana ndayive kunje twisila, mgati tuvikivwa uvupya elinchova ni lichuva.
17 For, the momentary lightness of the tribulation, in a manner yet more and more excelling, is working out for us, an age-abiding weight of glory, — (aiōnios g166)
Unsikhi ugu unsupi ugatanchi wa vudebe igikhutuvikha ufwe kwuvwa fikono fyoni uvujitu vwa vuvalanche uvulutelile ifigelelelo fyoni. (aiōnios g166)
18 So long as we are not looking out for the visible things, but for the invisible; for, the visible things, are temporary, whereas, the invisible, are age-abiding. (aiōnios g166)
Ulwakhuva satwilola ifinu ifivonekha, kufinu ifyu safivonekha. Ifinu ifyo twi tukhufivona ifya nsikhi vuvule ifinu ifivoneka sikhu joni. (aiōnios g166)
