2 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, and Timothy my brother, to the church of God which is in Corinth, with all the saints that are in all Achaia:
Ajino bhaluwa jino kujikopoka kwangu nne, a Pauli ntume jwa a Yeshu a Kilishitu na apwanga a Timoteo, kwa engwa kwabho a Nnungu. Ngunakunjandishilanga mmanganya mmandunji bha a Nnungu nninginji ku Kolinto na bhandu bhowe bha ukonjelo mmbali yowe ya ku Akaya.
2 grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Nema na ulele kopoka kwa a Nnungu ainabhetu na Bhakulungwa a Yeshu Kilishitu ibhe na mmanganya.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort,
Bhakuywe a Nnungu ainabhabho Bhakulungwa bhetu a Yeshu Kilishitu, Atati bhakwete shiya na a Nnungu bhakutupa kuangalala.
4 who con soles us in all our afflictions, so that we are able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
A Nnungu bhakutuangalaya nkulaga mwetu, nkupinga na uwe twaangalayanje bhananji nkulaga kwabhonji kwa nng'angalo gogo gutuposhela kopoka kwa bhenebho.
5 For as the sufferings for the Christ abound in us, so also through Christ abounds our consolation.
Elo, malinga shitupunda kupata mboteko nkwaakamulila liengo a Kilishitu, a Nnungu shibhapunda kutuangalaya kupitila a Kilishitu.
6 And if we are afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which salvation is effected by your patient endurance of the same sufferings that we also suffer; (and our hope in you is steadfast; ) or if we are consoled, it is for your comfort and salvation;
Ibhaga tunalaga, ni kwa ligongo lya nng'angalo na ntapulo gwenunji. Putuangalala nkupinga kunng'angalayanga mmanganyanji na kuntaganga ntima kwa mboteko yenunji, mwiipilililanje malinga uwe.
7 because we know, that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also you shall be partakers of the comfort.
Na ngulupai itukwete kwa ligongo lyenunji ishimilishe, pabha tumumanyi kuti nnalaganga malinga uwe, nneyo peyo shinng'angalalanje malinga uwe.
8 For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning our affliction which came upon us in Asia, that we were exceedingly oppressed, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life.
Ashaalongo, tunapinga kummalanjilanga shitushite laga ku nkowa gwa ku Ashia kula, shilajesho shashinkututopela kwa kaje mpaka gutuwile mitima kuti tukalama.
9 But we have in ourselves the sentence of death, that we may not trust in ourselves, but in God, who raises the dead;
Elo, mmitima jetu putwaliji mbuti bhandu bhaukumwilwenje kubhulagwa, nkupinga tunaikulupalile twaashayene, ikabhe twaakulupalile a Nnungu bhakwaayuyanga bhandu bhawilenje.
10 who delivered us from so great a death, and does still deliver us: in whom we have confidence, that he will continue to deliver us,
Bhenebho bhatutapwile nshilaje shikulungwa shapingaga kutubhulaga shila, na bhanapunda kututapula. Tunakwakulupalila kuti shibhatutapule kabhili.
11 if you also unite in prayer for our aid, that the favor bestowed on us, through the intercession of many persons, may cause thanks to be given by many for us.
Mmanganya nnakutujangutilanga kwa kutujujila. Nkupinga bhandu bhabhagwinji bhatendanje eja kwa a Nnungu ga ligongo lya mboka itupata kwa jujilwa na bhandu bhabhagwinji.
12 For the ground of our rejoicing is this: the testimony of our conscience that we have lived in the world more―abundantly, indeed, for you―in sincerity and godly purity, not in carnal wisdom, but in the grace of God.
Shitukwiiniya shindu shimo, mitima jetu jinakutukong'ondelala kuti tunatama pa shilambolyo pano na kajekaje munkumbi gwenunji, kwa kwiitimalika kutupegwilwe na a Nnungu. Twangalongoywa na lunda lwetu ikabhe kwa nema ja a Nnungu.
13 For we write to you nothing else than what you recognize, or even acknowledge; and which I hope you will acknowledge to the end;
Tunakunjandishilanga indu ishinkombolanje shoma na kwiimanya. Ngunakulupalila kuti shimwimanyanje ukoto,
14 as some of you also acknowledge us, that we are the cause of your rejoicing, even as you, also, are of ours, in the day of the Lord Jesus.
pabha nnaino mmumanyinji kashoko. Bhai, tumumanyi kuti lyubha lya kwiya a Yeshu shumwiiniyanje kwa ligongo lyetu malinga shitukwiiniya uwe kwa ligongo lyenunji.
15 And in this confidence I intended to go to you before, that you might have a second benefit;
Ngulikulupalila kumanya na kulupalila kwenunji, gundumbilile ndandubhe kuika kunngwenunji nkupinga mpwaikanje pabhili.
16 and by you, to pass through into Macedonia, and to come again to you from Macedonia, and be conducted by you into Judea.
Natumbilile mbitile kungwenunji gwa kwenda na gwa nkubhuja kunkoa gwa Makedonia, nkupinga nnyangutilanje ga mwanja gwangu gwa kwenda ku Yudea.
17 In forming this purpose, did I, therefore, behave with levity? or do I purpose what I purpose, according to the flesh, that there may be with me, yes yes, and no, no?
Bhuli, punkuganishiyanga kuti naliji mundu jwa pindikukapindikuka? Eu, punkuganishiyanga njitumbilila kwa lunda lwangupe? Kuti ngunabheleketa “Elo” na “Nngabha” gwanakamo?
18 But God is true; for our preaching to you was not yes and no:
A Nnungu bha kweli jika, bhai, shitummalanjilenje shila nngabha shindu sha “Elo” na “Nngabha”
19 for the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, by me and Sylvanus and Timothy, was not yes and no, but in him was yes.
Pabha a Kilishitu bhanabhabho a Nnungu, bhutunnungushiyenje nne na a Shilibhanushi na a Timoteo, bhakaliji bha “Elo” na “Nngabha.” Ikabhe mobha gowe bhenebho ni “Elo” ja a Nnungu.
20 For whatever promises of God there are, are in him yes, and in him amen, to the glory of God by us.
Pabha malagano gowe ga a Nnungu gali mwa a Kilishitu ni ga “Elo” kwa lyene ligongolyo, “Amina” jetu pujilugulwa kwa lina lya a Yeshu nkwaakuya a Nnungu.
21 For he who establishes us with you in Christ, and has anointed us, is God,
Bhai a Nnungu bhayene bhanakutushimilika uwe pamo na mmanganya nkulundana na a Kilishitu. Na kutuagula,
22 who has also set his seal upon us, and given us the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.
bhenebho gubhatupele Mbumu jwabho mmitima jetu abhe lulembo kuti uwe tubhabho na abhe ngamulo ja indu yowe ibhatubhishile.
23 But I call on God as a witness against my soul, that wishing to spare you, I did not go to Corinth;
A Nnungu ni bhakong'ondela bhangu ngaabheleketa unami, gundumbilile ngunaishe kabhili ku Kolinto ngunakummulayanga kuinjika kwa malobhe ga kalipa.
24 not that we are lords over your faith, but fellow-workers for your joy: for by faith you stand.
Tukaapinga kunshishilishiyanga ga indu inkukulupalilanga, pabha mwiishimilikenje nngulupai jenunji. Ikabhe uwe tubhaajangutila bha angalala kwenunji.
