2 Corinthians 4
1 Therefore, seeing we have this ministry, even as we obtained mercy, we don’t faint.
Pwu lino, tulinimbombo iyi, nduvu tuyupilile uluhungu, satugatala.
2 But we 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 to every man’s conscience 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 Even if our Good News is veiled, it is veiled in those who are dying,
Pwu ingave iliangili lyetu lye yuvelile, lye yuvelile khuvala aviyaga.
4 in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn on them. (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 we don’t preach ourselves, 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 seeing it is God who said, “Light will shine out of darkness,” who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
Ulwakhuva Unguluve vi akhanchova, “Ulumuli tumulekha khuhisi.” Amulikhe munumbula nchenyo ukhuhumya uluhala uluvalanche ulwa Nguluve pwu khuvepo khwa Yesu Kristi.
7 But we have this treasure in clay vessels, that the exceeding 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 We are pressed on every side, yet not crushed; perplexed, yet not to despair;
Tukhatala satuchungutilewe. Twivona masiakho lakini satu khwegwisya nukhuvuye kunsana.
9 pursued, yet not forsaken; struck down, yet not destroyed;
Tuteseke satwiyaga. Tutaagiwa satulemala.
10 always carrying in the body the putting to death of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.
Ifigino fyoni twigega emivili gyetu uvufwe wa Yesu, pwu uvwumi vwa Yesu vavoneke mu mivili gyetu.
11 For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus may be revealed in our mortal flesh.
Ufwe twituvile vumi ifigono fyoni tuhuminchiwa ukhufwa kwa Yesu, pwu uvumi vwa Yesu vovonekhage mmivili gyetu igya vumunu.
12 So then death works in us, but life in you.
Ulwakhuva uvufwe vuvomba mbombo yetu mgata ndyufwe, pwu uvuvumi vuvomba imbombo mgati ndyumwe.
13 But having the same spirit of faith, according to that which is written, “I believed, and therefore I spoke.” We also believe, and therefore we also speak,
Pwu tulini numbula yila yila iya lwidikho ukhukhongana: “Nikhidikhe puwu nikhanchova.” Nayufwe khange twikhwidikhe, khange twinchova.
14 knowing that he who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus, and will present us 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, that the grace, being multiplied through the many, may cause the thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God.
Khila khinu pokhile khinyo umwukhivelile ikhisa vukhiluta kwu vanu vingi, imwalimu yikula kwu vuvalanche vwa Nguluve.
16 Therefore we don’t faint, but though our outward person is decaying, yet our inward person is renewed day by day.
Pwu lino satwivuya kunsana ndayive kunje twisila, mgati tuvikivwa uvupya elinchova ni lichuva.
17 For our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal 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 while we don’t look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal. (aiōnios g166)
Ulwakhuva satwilola ifinu ifivonekha, kufinu ifyu safivonekha. Ifinu ifyo twi tukhufivona ifya nsikhi vuvule ifinu ifivoneka sikhu joni. (aiōnios g166)
