2 Abhakorintho 5

1 Chimenyele ati alabha obwikalo bwa musi bhunu echikala omwo obhunyamuka, chinayo inyumba okusoka Kunyamuanga. (aiōnios g166)

For we know that if the earthly house of our tent is dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens. (aiōnios g166)

2 Ni nyumba inu itakolewe kwa mabhoko go mwana munu, nawe ni nyumba yo bhuanga, mulwile. Kwo kubha echasibwa nichiligila okufwafibwa inyumba yeswe mulwile.

For most certainly in this we groan, longing to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven,

3 Echiligila kulinu kwo kubha chafwafibwe chitalibhonekana chili tuyu.

if indeed being clothed, we will not be found naked.

4 Kwo mwanya chili munda ya iyema inu echasibwa nichitamililwa. Chitakwenda okufulilwa. kulwejo, echenda okufwafibwa, koleleki chiliya echokufwa chitule okumilwa no bhuanga.

For indeed we who are in this tent do groan, being burdened, not that we desire to be unclothed, but that we desire to be clothed, that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.

5 Uliya echoakolele eswe kwe chinu chinu ni Nyamuanga, unu achiyae eswe Mwoyo alabha mulago gwa chiliya echoechija.

Now he who made us for this very thing is God, who also gave to us the down payment of the Spirit.

6 Kulwejo mubhe no kwisimbagilisha siku jona. Mubhe na maso ati omwanya chili bhona ika chili mumubhili, chili kula na Lata bhugenyi.

Therefore we are always confident and know that while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord;

7 Kwokubha echilibhata kwo kwikilisha, ati kwo kulola. kukwejo chili bhesimbagilisha.

for we walk by faith, not by sight.

8 Nikubha kula okusoka mumubhili na ika amwi na Lata bhugenyi.

We are courageous, I say, and are willing rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord.

9 Kulwejo echikola kubha lyeswe alabha chikabha ika amwi kula, chimukondeshe omwene.

Therefore also we make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well pleasing to him.

10 Kwo kubha bhona echibhonekana imbele ye chitebhe cho kulamula cha Kristo, koleleki bhuli umwi atule okuyabwa jinu akolele kwe misango ejo akolele mu mubhili, jikabha jili ja kisi nolwo jili mibhibhi.

For we must all be revealed before the judgement seat of Christ that each one may receive the things in the body according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

11 Kulwejo, kwo kumenya amakanyo ga Lata bhugenyi, echikongya abhanu. Nawe kwokwo chili, echibhulisibwa abwelu na Nyamuanga. Eniikanya kubha eimenyekana ona mu bwiganya bwemwe.

Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we persuade men, but we are revealed to God, and I hope that we are revealed also in your consciences.

12 Chitakubhasagaga kwimwe lindi okuchilola eswe kubha bhe chimali. Echibhayana emwe kwikuisha kulweswe, koleleki mubhega no gwo kubhasubya ku bhaliya abho abhekuisha okubhoneka nawe atali chiliya chilimo munda yo mwoyo.

For we are not commending ourselves to you again, but speak as giving you occasion of boasting on our behalf, that you may have something to answer those who boast in appearance and not in heart.

13 Kwo kubha akabha chisalile, ni ku Nyamuanga. Na akabha chili kubwege bweswe bhukobhele, ni kulwemwe.

For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God. Or if we are of sober mind, it is for you.

14 Kwo kubha elyenda lya Kristo elichisigilisha, kwo kubha chili no bwiikanyo bwa linu: kubha omunu umwi afwiliye bhona, na kulwejo bhona bhafuye.

For the love of Christ compels us; because we judge thus: that one died for all, therefore all died.

15 Na Kristo afwiliye bhona, koleleki bhaliya abhoabhekala bhekale lindi kubwebwe. Nawe, bhusibhusi bhekale kubwaye unu afuye na should.

He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.

16 Kwo kubha linu, okwambila wolyanu chitakumulamula omunu okwingana no bhutulo bwa mwana munu, chaliga ao kubwambilo nichimulola Kristo ku linu. Nawe wolyanu chitakumulamula wona wona ku linu lindi.

Therefore we know no one according to the flesh from now on. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.

17 Kulwejo, akabha omunu wona wona ali munda ya Kristo, unu ni chimogwa chiyaya. Emisango ja kala jaoeo. Lola jabheye miyaya.

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new.

18 Bhinu bhona bhinu ebhisoka Kunyamuanga. unu achisagishe eswe ku mwene okulabhila ku Kristo achiyaye emilimu jo bhusagisha.

But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation;

19 Kutyo ni kwaika, Kristo, Nyamuanga asangisishe isi ku mwene, atabhabhalila bhikayo byebwe. Achibhikisishe eswe omusango gwo bhusagisha.

namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses, and having committed to us the word of reconciliation.

20 Kulwejo chili intumwa kulwa Kristo ni uti Nyamuanga aliga nakola okulembelesha kwae okulabhila kwiswe. Echibhalembesha emwe kulwa Kristo: “Mwisagishe ku Nyamuanga!”

We are therefore ambassadors on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us: we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.

21 Amukolele Kristo kubha isadaka kulwe bhibhibhi byeswe. Akolele kutyo chitule kubha bha Nyamuanga mu mwene.

For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
