2 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother: to the church of God that is at Corinth, with all the saints that are in all Achaia:
Pawulu apositolo waKkilisito Jesu mumaknze aLeza aTimoteyo mukulana wesu kumbungano yaLeza ilimuKkolinto, akubantu baleza boonse basalali muchisi choonse cheAkkasia.
2 Grace unto you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Luzyalo kaluba mulindinwe aluumuno buzwa kuli Leza Tata wesu aMwami Jesu Kkilisito.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort.
Alumbwe Leza aTata Mwami wesu Jesu Kkilisito. Ngu Tata waluzyao aLeza wakumbulizya koonse.
4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation; that we also may be able to comfort them who are in all distress, by the exhortation wherewith we also are exhorted by God.
Leza wakatumbulizya kumasukusyo esu woonse, kuti tukakonzye kumbulizya abo balimumasukuzyo. Tulumbulizya bamwi alumbulizyo ndulonya Leza ndwatumbulizya alo.
5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us: so also by Christ doth our comfort abound.
Mbuli machise aKkilisto mbwakavula nkambo kesu, lino aboobo kumbulizigwa kwesu kwakavulisya kwindila mumachise aKkilisito.
6 Now whether we be in tribulation, it is for your exhortation and salvation: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation: or whether we be exhorted, it is for your exhortation and salvation, which worketh the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer.
Pesi na twapenzegwa, ndumbulizyo lwanu alufutuko; na twawumbulizigwa anwebo mwawumbulizigwa. Lumbulizyo lwanu lulokubeleka kabotu mukwabana kupenzegwa kukozyenye akwesu.
7 That our hope for you may be steadfast: knowing that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so shall you be also of the consolation.
Bulangizi bwesu kulindinwe taluteketi: nkambo tulizi kuti mbumwabana mapenzi mwakabana, akumbulizigwa kwesu.
8 For we would not have you ignorant, brethren, of our tribulation, which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure above our strength, so that we were weary even of life.
Nkambo tatuyandi kuti muleke kuzibisigwa nobakwesu, atala amasukusyo ngitwakalawo muEziya. Twakali kulemenwa kwinda nguzu zyesu, lino kuti tutakate nikuba buumi bwesu.
9 But we had in ourselves the answer of death, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raiseth the dead.
Iyii twakabetekelwa milandu yalufu. Pesi zyakali zyakuti tutabikki kusyomeka mulindiswe pesi muliLeza ubusya bafu.
10 Who hath delivered and doth deliver us out of so great dangers: in whom we trust that he will yet also deliver us.
Wakatuvuna mumapenzi ajeya, uyotuvuna lubo. Mulinguwe twabika bulangizi bwakuti ulatuvuna.
11 You helping withal in prayer for us: that for this gift obtained for us, by the means of many persons, thanks may be given by many in our behalf.
Wazichita ezi mbuli mbumulokutugwasya ankombyo zyanu, mpawo bingi bayotulumbila nkambo kazipo zyaluzyalo nzitupegwa kulindiswe kwindila munkombyo zyingi.
12 For our glory is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity of heart and sincerity of God, and not in carnal wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have conversed in this world: and more abundantly towards you.
Makanze akulisumpula kwesu ngaaya: kutaba aluzyalo kwesu kuntwakachita lwesu munyika abusalali abantu abuleza bwini kutaponena mubusongo bwanyama pesi muluzyalo lwaLeza.
13 For we write no other things to you than what you have read and known. And I hope that you shall know unto the end:
Takwe nchitwakalemba pe kulindinywe chitabaliki akumvwisikana ndasyoma kuti mulaba akumvwisisya kumaninide.
14 As also you have known us in part, that we are your glory, as you also are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Mbuli mbumwakatumvwa mubuche kuti mukalikankayizizye atala andiswe mubuzuba bwaMwami Jesu, mbuli mbutuyolikankayizya andinywe.
15 And in this confidence I had a mind to come to you before, that you might have a second grace:
Nkambo ndakasimpe azezi ndalikuyanda kusanguna kusika kulindinywe kuti mutambule zipo zysluzyalo zyabili.
16 And to pass by you into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and by you to be brought on my way towards Judea.
Ndalikuyeya kumuswaya nkinjindililakuyosika kuMasedoniya. Alubo ndayandide kumswaya ndakuzwa lubo mulwendo lwaku Masedoniy, akuti nkayindilile kuya kuJudiya.
17 Whereas then I was thus minded, did I use lightness? Or, the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that there should be with me, It is, and It is not?
Nindakachili kuyeya nzila eyi, ndakalengwana na? Sena ndibamba zintu munyama? Lino ndakati, “iyii, iyii “a “pe pe” muchindi chimwi?
18 But God is faithful, for our preaching which was to you, was not, It is, and It is not.
Pesi mbuli Leza mbasyomekede, majwi esu kulindinywe tesi akuti “Iyii”a “pe.”
19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ who was preached among you by us, by me, and Sylvanus, and Timothy, was not, It is and It is not, but, It is, was in him.
Nkaambo Mwana aLeza, Jesu Kkilisito, oyo Silivanasi, Timoteyo andime ngutwakakupandulula akati kanu tensi “iyii” a “pe. Anukuti, ngu iyii kwalyoonse.
20 For all the promises of God are in him, It is; therefore also by him, amen to God, unto our glory.
Nkambo zisyomezyo zyoonse zyaLeza ngu “iyii”Mulinguwe. Lino aboobo kwinda mulinguwe twamba kuti “Ameni” kubulemu bwaLeza.
21 Now he that confirmeth us with you in Christ, and that hath anointed us, is God:
Lino nguLeza uzuzikizya ndiswe andinywe muliKkilisito, wakatunanika swe.
22 Who also hath sealed us, and given the pledge of the Spirit in our hearts.
Wakadinda chidindo alindiswe akutupa muuya mumyoyo yesu mbuli chitondezyo chibola.
23 But I call God to witness upon my soul, that to spare you, I came not any more to Corinth:
Pesi ndayita Leza kuti abe kamboni amuuya wangu kuti tendakakkonzya pe kusika kuKkolinto lino kuti ndizomusiye.
24 not because we exercise dominion over your faith: but we are helpers of your joy: for in faith you stand.
Eechi tachambi kuti tuyanda kuba baami kulusyoma lwanu. Anukuti, tuli basimilimo nyokwe akukondwa kwanu, mbuli mbumwimvwi mulusyomo lwanu.
