2 Abhakorintho 9

1 Okugwana nokufulubhemba kwa bhelu, nikisi muno kwanye okubhandikila.

For indeed concerning the ministry which is to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you.

2 Nimenyele okwenda kwemwe, enikumangishamo kwa bhanu bha Makedonia. Nabhabwiliye ati Akaya yabheyeo omwaka gunu gutulile. okukomela kwemwe kwabhakungilisishe bhafu mu bhenabho.

For I know your promptitude, of which I am boasting to the Macedonians in your behalf, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal has aroused many.

3 Woli, nabhatuma abhaili koleleki okwikumaga kweswe kubhanu gasiga kubhagabhusa, na koleleki muchibha bwangu, alabha naikile mwakabheye.

But I sent the brethren, in order that our boasting which is in your behalf may not be in vain in this region; in order that, as I was saying, your were ready:

4 Amwi, alabha omunu wona wona wa Makedonia akaja amwi nanye no kubhenda muchali kubha bhangu, chakalolele ganu— nitakwaika chona chona okubhemako emwe — kwo kubha namanaga muno emwe.

lest perhaps, if the Macedonians may come with me, and find you unprepared, we may be put to shame, in this confidence, (that we may say not, you).

5 Kutyo nalolele niniganilisha abhaili okuja kwemwe nokola emisango bhangu koleleki echiyanwa chinu mwaliga mulagile. Linu nikwo koleleki gabhe mabhando, na tali chinu chisosishe.

Therefore I considered it necessary to exhort the brethren, that they may come to you beforehand, and perfect your preannounced benefaction, that it may be ready, as a benefaction, not as a stingy contribution.

6 Nawe linu: omunu unu kabhibha bhikeele ona kagesa bhikeele, na wona wona unu kabhibha kwa bhando ona kagesa kwa mabhando.

But it is this, he that soweth sparingly shall also reap sparingly; and he that soweth bountifully shall also reap bountifully.

7 Nawe na bhuli umwi asoshe kutyo amaliliye mu mwoyo gwaye. Nawe atasosha bwiguguni nolwo mu kusinyilisibwa. Kwo kubha Nyamuanga kenda uliya kasosha akondewe.

As each one has predetermined in his heart; not of reluctance, or of constraint: for God loves the hilarious giver.

8 Na Nyamuanga katula okukanyisha bhuli mabhando kwimwe, koleleki, bhuli mwanya, emisango jone, mutule okubhona gona ganu omwenda. Inu eibha ati mutule okukanyisha bhuli chikolwa chakisi.

But God is able to make all grace abound unto you; in order that, always having all sufficiency in every thing, you may abound unto every good work: as has been written,

9 Lwa kutyo gwandikilwe: “Anyalambula obhunibhi bwaye no kusosha ku bhata. obhulengesi bwaye bhulikala kajanende.” (aiōn g165)

He has scattered abroad, he has given to the poor; his righteousness abides forever. (aiōn g165)

10 Unu kasosha ebhiyambwa kumuyambi no mukate ingulu ye bhilyo, ona kasosha nokusaga echiyambhwa chemwe koleleki muyambe. Omwene kongesha ebhigeswa bhyo bhulengelesi bhwemwe.

But he that gives seed to the sower, will also give bread to the eater, and multiply your sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness:

11 Omunibhibhwa bhuli chinu koleleki mubhone okubha bhobhwila. Inu eileta isime ku Nyamuanga okulabhila eswe.

in every thing being enriched in all purity, which works out through us thanksgiving to God.

12 Kwokukola imfulubhendo inu italila ati aikolala ebhiyanwa bhya bhekilisha. Nalindi eyongesha ebhikolwa bhyamfu ebhyaisime ku Nyamuanga.

Because the ministry of this free-will offering is not only supplying the deficiencies of the saints, but also superabounding through much thanksgiving to God;

13 Kwainsonga eyo okulegwa kwemwe nokukumisibhwa kwe milimu ejo, nalindi omumukuya Nyamuanga kwo kumungwa kwo kwikilisha emisango jo bhwana eja Kristo. Nalindi omumukuya Nyamuanga kwobhwila ne bhiyanwa bhymwe kubhene na kubhuli umwi.

through the approval of this ministry, glorifying God in the submission of your testimony to the gospel of Christ, and the purity of your fellowship unto them and unto all;

14 Abhesigombela, na abhasabha ingulu yemwe. Abhakola kutya kwainsonga ye chigongo chinene echa Nyamuanga chinu chili ingulu yemwe.

and through their prayer in your behalf, earnestly longing to see you on account of the grace of God superabounding unto you.

15 Isime ibhe ku Nyamuanga chigongo chae chinu chitakwaikwa!

Thanks be unto God for His unspeakable gift.
