2 Corinthians 11
1 I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness, but indeed you do bear with me.
Nuvimana memuhepeleri neni katepu hera, ata neni pawoneka mzyigizyigi, mwenga munhepeleri.
2 For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy. For I promised you in marriage to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ.
Nankuwawonera weya, kumbiti ndo weya wa Mlungu, toziya mwenga mulifana na mwali kaherepa yanumuhetiti kwa mpalu yumu hera, ndo Kristu mweni.
3 But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness, so your minds might be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
Kumbiti ntira, gambira njoka ulii yakampayiriti Eva, maholu ga mwenga gaweza kupotuziwa, hamuwuleki uwaminika wenu wa nakaka kwa Kristu.
4 For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we didn’t preach, or if you receive a different spirit which you didn’t receive, or a different “good news” which you didn’t accept, you put up with that well enough.
Toziya muntu yoseri yakiza na kumbwera Yesu wantambu yingi na ulii yatumubweriti twenga, mwenga muwanka kwa mawoku mawili ama mumjimira Rohu Mnanagala na Shisoweru Shiwagira shamwankiti kulawa kwatwenga.
5 For I reckon that I am not at all behind the very best apostles.
Nulihola ndiri kuwera neni namwana kuliku yawalishema weni “Wantumintumi wakulu.”
6 But though I am unskilled in speech, yet I am not unskilled in knowledge. No, in every way we have been revealed to you in all things.
Pamonga nahera mantambalira ga kutakula, kumbiti mahala nanaga, shitwatira ashi tushilanguziya pota na kufifa, kila pahala na kila shipindi.
7 Or did I commit a sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached to you God’s Good News free of charge?
Hashi, neni ntenditi vidoda pananagaliti namweni su mwenga mpatwi kukwiswa kwa kuwabwelera Shisoweru Shiwagira sha Mlungu pota na kuluwa shintu?
8 I robbed other assemblies, taking wages from them that I might serve you.
Pantenditi lihengu pakati pa mwenga, mafiliru gangu mpananitwi kulawa kwa vipinga vimonga vya wantu yawamjimira Yesu. Ntenditi hangu gambira nuwapoka ulunda wawu mpati kuwatendera mwenga.
9 When I was present with you and was in need, I wasn’t a burden on anyone, for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of my need. In everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and I will continue to do so.
Neni paweri na mwenga, numgaziya ndiri muntu yoseri panfiriti mpiya, walongu yawalawiti Makedoniya wanjegeriti kila shintu shanfiriti. Su nulilola mweni kuwera nanawagaziya mwenga kwantambu yoseri ilii na hanendereyi kutenda hangu.
10 As the truth of Christ is in me, no one will stop me from this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
Kwa unakaka ulii wa Kristu yawuweriti mngati mwaneni, kwahera muntu yakaweza kundewelera kulitumbira shitwatira ashi Muakaya mwoseri.
11 Why? Because I don’t love you? God knows.
Hashi, ntakula hangu toziya nuwafira ndiri mwenga? Mlungu kavimana kuwera nuwafira!
12 But what I do, that I will continue to do, that I may cut off opportunity from those who desire an opportunity, that in which they boast, they may be recognized just like us.
Hanendereyi kutenda ntambu yantenda vinu, su nanuwapanana lupenyu walii wantumintumi wakulu yawasakula lupenyu lwa kulitumbira na kulonga womberi watenda lihengu ntambu yatutenda twenga.
13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as Christ’s apostles.
Toziya wantu awa wawera wantumintumi wapayira, watenda lihengu lya kupayira na walipayira kuwera weni ndo wantumintumi wa Kristu.
14 And no wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of light.
Namulikangasha, toziya ata Shetani mweni kalipayira kawoneki kuwera ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa ulangala.
15 It is no great thing therefore if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.
Su ashi ndo shitwatira sha kulikangasha ndiri payiwera na wantumintumi wa Shetani walipayira weni wawoneki kuwera womberi ndo yawamfiriziya Mlungu. Na lupeleru womberi hawawanki kwa galii gawagatenditi.
16 I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little.
Ntakula kayi, muntu nakaholera kuwera neni namzyigizyigi. Kumbiti handa pamuhola ntambu ayi, munjimili gambira mzyigizyigi, su nulitumbiri padidini hera.
17 That which I speak, I don’t speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting.
Shantakula vinu ndo shilii ndiri shakanagaliriti Mtuwa, mushitwatira ashi sha kulitumbira, neni ntakula hera gambira muntu mzyigizyigi.
18 Seeing that many boast after the flesh, I will also boast.
Tembera wavuwa walitumbira gambira wantu wa pasipanu, naneni viraa hanulitumbi.
19 For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise.
Maweni mwenga muwera na luhala, ndo toziya mwankuwahepelera wazyigizyigi kwa kunemelera!
20 For you bear with a man if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, or if he strikes you on the face.
Mwankumhepelera muntu yoseri yakawatendani mwenga wamanda, ama muntu yakatola vintu vya mwenga, ama muntu yakalikwisa na kuwakoma kusheni.
21 To my shame, I speak as though we had been weak. Yet in whatever way anyone is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also.
Ntakula kwa soni kuwera twenga tuweriti legilegi kutenda vitwatira vilii. Kumbiti handa kwana muntu yoseri yakajera kulitumbira shintu, ntakula gambira mzyigizyigi, viraa naneni ntira ndiri kulitumbira.
22 Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the offspring of Abraham? So am I.
Hashi, womberi ndo Waebulaniya? Su neni vilaa Namuebraniya. Hashi, womberi ndo Waisraeli? Su neni vilaa Namwisraeli. Hashi, womberi ndo washiyiwuku sha Aburahamu? Su neni vilaa wa shiyiwuku sha Aburahamu.
23 Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself.) I am more so: in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, and in deaths often.
Hashi womberi ndo wantumintumi wa Kristu? Ntakula aga gambira nana likwali, kumbiti neni nantumintumi gwa Kristu nentu kuliku womberi. Neni ntenda lihengu likamala nentu kuliku womberi, nkala kushibetubetu mala zivuwa nentu kuliku womberi, nsyatagwa ntomondu mala zivuwa nentu kuliku womberi na nweriti pakwegera na kuhowa mala zivuwa kuliku womberi.
24 Five times I received forty stripes minus one from the Jews.
Mala mhanu nsyatangitwi na Wayawudi, ntomondu malongu matatu na tisa.
25 Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned. Three times I suffered shipwreck. I have been a night and a day in the deep.
Ngomangitwi na shindonga mala ntatu, wangumiti mabuwi mala yimu, mala ntantu mtumbwi gupantikiti mubahali na neni pawera mlaa na nyerukiti mmashi amu pashiru poseri na paliwala poseri.
26 I have been in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my countrymen, perils from the Gentiles, perils in the city, perils in the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils among false brothers;
Mumwanja zyangu zivuwa neni nweriti muhatali kukusiwa mumashi, muhatali kukomwa na wapoka, muhatali kukomwa na wenikaya wayangu na muhatali kukomwa na wantu yawawera ndiri Wayawudi, ntabikiti mlushi na ntabikiti mushiwala na ntabikiti muntundu na mubahali na ntabisiyitwi na waganja yawapayira.
27 in labor and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, and in cold and nakedness.
Ntenda lihengu na kutabika, nkala masu pota na kugonja mala zivuwa, nweriti na njala na kuyumuluwa, mala zivuwa noyiti kuliya shiboga na kulikala mumpepu shivula.
28 Besides those things that are outside, there is that which presses on me daily: anxiety for all the assemblies.
Pamuhera na gamonga gavuwa, kila lishaka neni wera na mahengu gavuwa muvipinga vyoseri vya wantu yawamjimira Yesu.
29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I don’t burn with indignation?
Handa kwana muntu mlegilegi, neni nwera mlegilegi vilaa. Muntu yoseri pakatendwa katendi vidoda, neni vilaa moyu guntama.
30 If I must boast, I will boast of the things that concern my weakness.
Handa panulitumba, su hanulitumbiri shitwatila shashilanguziya ntambu yanwera legilegi.
31 The God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, he who is blessed forever more, knows that I don’t lie. (aiōn g165)
Mlungu, Tati gwa Mtuwa Yesu, litawu lyakuwi likwiswi mashaka goseri, yomberi kavimana kuwera neni mpaya ndiri. (aiōn g165)
32 In Damascus the governor under King Aretas guarded the Damascenes’ city, desiring to arrest me.
Paweriti Dameski, mkolamlima yakaweriti pasi pa mfalumi Areta, kaweriti pakalulolera lushi lwa Dameski, su kankamuli.
33 I was let down in a basket through a window by the wall, and escaped his hands.
Kumbiti nsulusiwitwi mulijamanda, kupitira mulupenu lwa shibambaza, nulipotiti kulawa mmawoku gakuwi.
