2 Corinthians 11
1 Would to God you could bear with some little of my folly: but do bear with me.
Ndikukhulupirira kuti mupirira nako pangʼono kupusa kwanga. Chonde tandipirirani!
2 For I am jealous of you with the jealousy of God. For I have espoused you to one husband that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
Nsanje imene ndimakuchitirani ndi yofanana ndi ya Mulungu. Ndinakulonjezani mwamuna mmodzi yekha, mwamunayo ndiye Khristu, kuti ndidzakuperekeni inuyo kwa Iyeyo monga namwali wangwiro.
3 But I fear lest, as the serpent seduced Eve by his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted, and fall from the simplicity that is in Christ.
Koma ndikuopa kuti monga Hava ananyengedwa ndi kuchenjera kwa njoka, mitima yanunso ingasocheretsedwe kuleka nʼkudzipereka moona mtima ndi modzipereka kwenikweni kwa Khristu.
4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Christ, whom we have not preached; or if you receive another Spirit, whom you have not received; or another gospel which you have not received; you might well bear with him.
Pakuti ngati wina abwera kwa inu nalalikira Yesu wina wosiyana ndi Yesu amene tinamulalikira, kapena ngati mulandira mzimu wina wosiyana ndi Mzimu amene munalandira, kapena uthenga wabwino wina wosiyana ndi umene munawuvomereza, inuyo mumangolandira mosavuta.
5 For I suppose that I have done nothing less than the great apostles.
Komatu sindikuganiza kuti ndine wotsika kwambiri kwa “atumwi apamwamba.”
6 For although I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but in all things we have been made manifest to you.
Mwina ndikhoza kukhala wosaphunzitsidwa kayankhulidwe, koma ndili ndi chidziwitso. Izi tinakufotokozerani momveka bwinobwino.
7 Or did I commit a fault, humbling myself, that you might be exalted? Because I preached unto you the gospel of God freely?
Kodi linali tchimo kwa ine kudzichepetsa nʼcholinga chakuti ndikukwezeni pamene ndinkalalikira Uthenga Wabwino wa Mulungu kwa inu mwaulere?
8 I have taken from other churches, receiving wages of them for your ministry.
Ndinkalanda mipingo ina pomalandira thandizo kwa iwo kuti ndikutumikireni.
9 And, when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was wanting to me, the brethren supplied who came from Macedonia; and in all things I have kept myself from being burthensome to you, and so I will keep myself.
Ndipo pamene ndinali pakati panu, nditasowa kanthu, sindinalemetse munthu aliyense, pakuti abale ena amene anachokera ku Makedoniya anandipatsa zonse zimene ndinkazisowa. Ndayesetsa kuti ndisakhale cholemetsa kwa inu mʼnjira ina iliyonse, ndipo ndidzapitiriza kutero.
10 The truth of Christ is in me, that this glorying shall not be broken off in me in the regions of Achaia.
Kunena moona mtima molingana ndi chilungamo cha Khristu chimene chili mwa ine, palibe amene angandiletse kudzitamandira mʼzigawo za ku Akaya.
11 Wherefore? Because I love you not? God knoweth it.
Nʼchifukwa chiyani ndikutero? Kodi nʼchifukwa choti sindikukondani? Mulungu akudziwa kuti ndimakukondani!
12 But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off the occasion from them that desire occasion, that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.
Ndipo ndipitiriza kuchita zomwe ndikuchitazi nʼcholinga chakuti ndisapereke mpata kwa amene akufuna kupezera mwayi woti afanane nafe pa zinthu zimene iwowo amadzitamandira.
13 For such false apostles are deceitful workmen, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
Pakuti anthu oterewa ndi atumwi onama, antchito achinyengo, odzizimbayitsa ngati atumwi a Khristu.
14 And no wonder: for Satan himself transformeth himself into an angel of light.
Sizododometsa zimenezi, pakuti Satana mwini amadzizimbayitsa kuoneka ngati mngelo wowunikira anthu.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers be transformed as the ministers of justice, whose end shall be according to their works.
Nʼzosadabwitsa tsono ngati atumiki ake akudzizimbayitsa ngati otumikira chilungamo. Matsiriziro awo adzalandira zoyenerana ndi ntchito zawo.
16 I say again, (let no man think me to be foolish, otherwise take me as one foolish, that I also may glory a little.)
Ndibwereze kunena kuti, wina aliyense asandiyese chitsiru. Koma ngati mutero, mundilandire monga mmene mukhoza kulandirira chitsiru, kuti ndinyadirepo pangʼono.
17 That which I speak, I speak not according to God, but as it were in foolishness, in this matter of glorying.
Kudzinyadira kwangaku, sindikuyankhula monga mmene Ambuye akufunira koma ngati chitsiru.
18 Seeing that many glory according to the flesh, I will glory also.
Popeza ambiri akudzitama monga dziko lapansi limachitira, inenso ndidzitamanso.
19 For you gladly suffer the foolish; whereas yourselves are wise.
Inu mumalolera kukhala ndi zitsiru mokondwera chifukwa mumati ndinu anzeru!
20 For you suffer if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour you, if a man take from you, if a man be lifted up, if a man strike you on the face.
Kunena zoona mumangololera aliyense; amene amakusandutsani akapolo, kapena amene amakudyerani masuku pamutu, kapena amene amakupezererani, kapena amene amadzitukumula, kapena amene amakumenyani khofi.
21 I speak according to dishonour, as if we had been weak in this part. Wherein if any man dare (I speak foolishly), I dare also.
Ndikuvomera mwamanyazi kuti ife sitinali olimba mtima kuti nʼkuchita zinthu zimenezi. Ndikuyankhula ngati chitsiru kuti chimene wina aliyense akhoza kudzitama nacho, Inenso ndikhoza kudzitama nachonso.
22 They are Hebrews: so am I. They are Israelites: so am I. They are the seed of Abraham: so am I.
Kodi iwo ndi Ahebri? Inenso ndine Mhebri. Kodi iwo ndi Aisraeli? Inenso ndine Mwisraeli. Kodi iwo ndi zidzukulu za Abrahamu? Inenso ndine mdzukulu wa Abrahamu.
23 They are the ministers of Christ (I speak as one less wise). I am more; in many more labours, in prisons more frequently, in stripes above measure, in deaths often.
Kodi iwo ndi atumiki a Khristu? Ndikuyankhula ngati wamisala. Ine ndine woposa iwowo. Ndagwira ntchito kwambiri kupambana iwo, ndakhala ndikuyikidwa mʼndende kawirikawiri, ndakwapulidwapo kwambiri, kawirikawiri ndinali pafupi kufa.
24 Of the Jews five times did I receive forty stripes, save one.
Andikwapulapo kasanu zikoti zija za Ayuda, makumi anayi kuchotsapo chimodzi.
25 Thrice was I beaten with rods, once I was stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I was in the depth of the sea.
Katatu anandimenya ndi ndodo. Kamodzi anandigendapo miyala. Katatu sitima yathu ya panyanja inasweka, ndipo ndinakhala usiku ndi usana ndi kuyandama pa nyanja.
26 In journeying often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils from my own nation, in perils from the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils from false brethren.
Ndakhala ndikuyenda maulendo ataliatali. Moyo wanga wakhala ukukumana ndi zoopsa pa mitsinje, zoopsa za achifwamba, zoopsa zochokera kwa abale anga Ayuda, zoopsa zochokera kwa anthu akunja. Ndinakumana ndi zoopsa mʼmizinda, mʼmidzi, pa nyanja, ndi pakati pa abale onyenga.
27 In labour and painfulness, in much watchings, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
Ndakhala ndikugwira ntchito molimbika ndipo kawirikawiri ndakhala ndikuchezera usiku wonse osagona. Ndakhala ndikumva njala ndi ludzu ndipo kawirikawiri ndakhala wopanda chakudya. Ndakhala ndi kuzizidwa ndi wosowa zovala.
28 Besides those things which are without: my daily instance, the solicitude for all the churches.
Kuwonjezera pa zonsezi, tsiku ndi tsiku ndimakhala pa chipsinjo cha nkhawa ya mipingo yonse.
29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is scandalized, and I am not on fire?
Ndani ali wofowoka, ine wosakhala naye mʼkufowoka kwakeko? Ndani amene mnzake amuchimwitsa, ine wosavutika mu mtima?
30 If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things that concern my infirmity.
Ngati nʼkoyenera kudzitamandira, ndidzadzitamandira pa zinthu zimene zimaonetsa kufowoka kwanga.
31 The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed for ever, knoweth that I lie not. (aiōn g165)
Mulungu, Atate a Ambuye Yesu, amene tiyenera kumutamanda nthawi zonse, akudziwa kuti sindikunama. (aiōn g165)
32 At Damascus, the governor of the nation under Aretas the king, guarded the city of the Damascenes, to apprehend me.
Ku Damasiko, bwanamkubwa woyimira Mfumu Areta, anayika alonda kuzungulira mzinda wonse kuti andigwire.
33 And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and so escaped his hands.
Koma abale anandiyika mʼdengu nanditsitsira pa chipupa kudzera pa zenera la mpandawo, motero ndinapulumuka mʼmanja mwake.
