2 Corinthians 9
1 It is indeed unnecessary for me to write to you concerning the service to the holy ones,
Kwambisya milimo yabantu baLeza basalala, twekweelede kuti ndamulembela njiyo pe.
2 for I know your readiness, of which I boast on your behalf to those of Macedonia, that Achaia has been prepared for the past year. Your zeal has stirred up very many of them.
Ndilizi atala aziyandisyo zyanu, ezyo nzindakalikankayizya atala andinywe kubantu bakuMakkedoniya. Ndakabaambila kuti Akkaya wakalibambila kuzwa munyaka wayiinda. busungusungu bwanu bwakasungwaazya bayingi kuti bachite mbubonya.
3 But I have sent the brothers so that our boasting on your behalf may not be in vain in this respect, that, just as I said, you may be prepared,
Lino ndakatuma bakwesu kuti kulikankayizya kwesu andinywe kutabi kufwisya bweeme akuti mukalibambile, mbuli mbundakamwaambila.
4 lest by any means, if anyone from Macedonia comes there with me and finds you unprepared, we (to say nothing of you) would be disappointed in this confident boasting.
Ambweni, kuti baMakkedoniya bamwi ndaza abo akujana kamutalibambilide, ngatuyoofwa bweeme - takukwe nchinga ndilamba atala andinywe - nkaambo ndilikkusikene mulindinywe.
5 I thought it necessary therefore to entreat the brothers that they would go before to you and arrange ahead of time the generous gift that you promised before, that the same might be ready as a matter of generosity, and not of greediness.
Ndakayeya kuti kulikabotu kuti ndisungwaazye bakwesu basike kiulindinywe akuti muzobambilile chipo nchimwakasyomezya. Kuchitila kuti chibambike mbuli chilongezyo, akuti chitabi mbuli chakumusinikizya ped.
6 Remember this: he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly. He who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.
Ichiliko ncheechi: Ooyo ubuala chakuchesya ulatebula mubuche, ayooyo ubyala chakulangila choolwe ulatebula chilongezyo.
7 Let each man give according as he has determined in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
Amuleke umwi awumwi ape mbuli kukanza kwamoyo wakwe. Kutali chamunyono na kuti kusinikizigwa. Nkaambo Leza uyanda uupa chalumwemwe.
8 And God is able to make all grace abound to you, that you, always having all sufficiency in everything, may abound to every good work.
Alimwi Leza ulakonzya kuchita luzyalo loonse kuti lweete kulindinywe ikuti kukabe, muzyiindi zyoonse, muzintu zyoonse, kuti mujane zyoonse nzimuyanda. Eechi chiyooba kuti mukayungizye milimu mibotu.
9 As it is written, “He has scattered abroad. He has given to the poor. His righteousness remains forever.” (aiōn g165)
Kuli mbuli mbukulembedwe: “Wakaaba buvubi bwakwe akubupa kubachete. Bululami bwakwe bulapona kwalyoonse.” (aiōn g165)
10 Now may he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food, supply and multiply your seed for sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness,
Ooyo uupa mbuto kubalimi nguubyala alimwi chinkwa chakulya uyoopa akuyungizya mbuto yakubyala. Uyoyungizya butebuzi bwabululami bwako.
11 you being enriched in everything for all generosity, which produces thanksgiving to God through us.
Muyoovubisigwa munzila zyoonse akuba sibuuya. Eezi ziyooleta kulumba kuliLeza kwiinda mulindiswe.
12 For this service of giving that you perform not only makes up for lack amongst the holy ones, but abounds also through much giving of thanks to God,
Kukunyampula mulimu ooyu takuli kugwasizya bantu baLeza basalala luzutu pe, pesi alubo kuyooyeta muzintu zyiingi zyakupa Leza zipo.
13 seeing that through the proof given by this service, they glorify God for the obedience of your confession to the Good News of Messiah and for the generosity of your contribution to them and to all,
Nkaambo kakweezegwa akwiimikizigwa kwenu amulimu ooyu, alimwi muyoolumbayizya Leza akuswilila kukuzumina makani mabotu aaKkilisito. Muyoolumbayizya Leza alubo azipo nzimuyoobunganisya chalumwemwe kulimbabo akuli wumwi awumwi.
14 while they themselves also, with supplication on your behalf, yearn for you by reason of the exceeding grace of God in you.
Mbibanu, alimwi balikumukombela. Bachita eezi nkaambo kaluzyalo lupati lwaLeza luli alindinywe.
15 Now thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift!
Ngalumbwe Leza achipo chakwe chitaambiki!
