2 Bhakolinto 1
1 Ajino bhaluwa jino kujikopoka kwangu nne, a Pauli ntume jwa a Yeshu a Kilishitu na apwanga a Timoteo, kwa engwa kwabho a Nnungu. Ngunakunjandishilanga mmanganya mmandunji bha a Nnungu nninginji ku Kolinto na bhandu bhowe bha ukonjelo mmbali yowe ya ku Akaya.
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother: to the church of God that is at Corinth, with all the saints that are in all Achaia:
2 Nema na ulele kopoka kwa a Nnungu ainabhetu na Bhakulungwa a Yeshu Kilishitu ibhe na mmanganya.
Grace unto you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Bhakuywe a Nnungu ainabhabho Bhakulungwa bhetu a Yeshu Kilishitu, Atati bhakwete shiya na a Nnungu bhakutupa kuangalala.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort.
4 A Nnungu bhakutuangalaya nkulaga mwetu, nkupinga na uwe twaangalayanje bhananji nkulaga kwabhonji kwa nng'angalo gogo gutuposhela kopoka kwa bhenebho.
Who comforteth us in all our tribulation; that we also may be able to comfort them who are in all distress, by the exhortation wherewith we also are exhorted by God.
5 Elo, malinga shitupunda kupata mboteko nkwaakamulila liengo a Kilishitu, a Nnungu shibhapunda kutuangalaya kupitila a Kilishitu.
For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us: so also by Christ doth our comfort abound.
6 Ibhaga tunalaga, ni kwa ligongo lya nng'angalo na ntapulo gwenunji. Putuangalala nkupinga kunng'angalayanga mmanganyanji na kuntaganga ntima kwa mboteko yenunji, mwiipilililanje malinga uwe.
Now whether we be in tribulation, it is for your exhortation and salvation: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation: or whether we be exhorted, it is for your exhortation and salvation, which worketh the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer.
7 Na ngulupai itukwete kwa ligongo lyenunji ishimilishe, pabha tumumanyi kuti nnalaganga malinga uwe, nneyo peyo shinng'angalalanje malinga uwe.
That our hope for you may be steadfast: knowing that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so shall you be also of the consolation.
8 Ashaalongo, tunapinga kummalanjilanga shitushite laga ku nkowa gwa ku Ashia kula, shilajesho shashinkututopela kwa kaje mpaka gutuwile mitima kuti tukalama.
For we would not have you ignorant, brethren, of our tribulation, which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure above our strength, so that we were weary even of life.
9 Elo, mmitima jetu putwaliji mbuti bhandu bhaukumwilwenje kubhulagwa, nkupinga tunaikulupalile twaashayene, ikabhe twaakulupalile a Nnungu bhakwaayuyanga bhandu bhawilenje.
But we had in ourselves the answer of death, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raiseth the dead.
10 Bhenebho bhatutapwile nshilaje shikulungwa shapingaga kutubhulaga shila, na bhanapunda kututapula. Tunakwakulupalila kuti shibhatutapule kabhili.
Who hath delivered and doth deliver us out of so great dangers: in whom we trust that he will yet also deliver us.
11 Mmanganya nnakutujangutilanga kwa kutujujila. Nkupinga bhandu bhabhagwinji bhatendanje eja kwa a Nnungu ga ligongo lya mboka itupata kwa jujilwa na bhandu bhabhagwinji.
You helping withal in prayer for us: that for this gift obtained for us, by the means of many persons, thanks may be given by many in our behalf.
12 Shitukwiiniya shindu shimo, mitima jetu jinakutukong'ondelala kuti tunatama pa shilambolyo pano na kajekaje munkumbi gwenunji, kwa kwiitimalika kutupegwilwe na a Nnungu. Twangalongoywa na lunda lwetu ikabhe kwa nema ja a Nnungu.
For our glory is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity of heart and sincerity of God, and not in carnal wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have conversed in this world: and more abundantly towards you.
13 Tunakunjandishilanga indu ishinkombolanje shoma na kwiimanya. Ngunakulupalila kuti shimwimanyanje ukoto,
For we write no other things to you than what you have read and known. And I hope that you shall know unto the end:
14 pabha nnaino mmumanyinji kashoko. Bhai, tumumanyi kuti lyubha lya kwiya a Yeshu shumwiiniyanje kwa ligongo lyetu malinga shitukwiiniya uwe kwa ligongo lyenunji.
As also you have known us in part, that we are your glory, as you also are ours, in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 Ngulikulupalila kumanya na kulupalila kwenunji, gundumbilile ndandubhe kuika kunngwenunji nkupinga mpwaikanje pabhili.
And in this confidence I had a mind to come to you before, that you might have a second grace:
16 Natumbilile mbitile kungwenunji gwa kwenda na gwa nkubhuja kunkoa gwa Makedonia, nkupinga nnyangutilanje ga mwanja gwangu gwa kwenda ku Yudea.
And to pass by you into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and by you to be brought on my way towards Judea.
17 Bhuli, punkuganishiyanga kuti naliji mundu jwa pindikukapindikuka? Eu, punkuganishiyanga njitumbilila kwa lunda lwangupe? Kuti ngunabheleketa “Elo” na “Nngabha” gwanakamo?
Whereas then I was thus minded, did I use lightness? Or, the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that there should be with me, It is, and It is not?
18 A Nnungu bha kweli jika, bhai, shitummalanjilenje shila nngabha shindu sha “Elo” na “Nngabha”
But God is faithful, for our preaching which was to you, was not, It is, and It is not.
19 Pabha a Kilishitu bhanabhabho a Nnungu, bhutunnungushiyenje nne na a Shilibhanushi na a Timoteo, bhakaliji bha “Elo” na “Nngabha.” Ikabhe mobha gowe bhenebho ni “Elo” ja a Nnungu.
For the Son of God, Jesus Christ who was preached among you by us, by me, and Sylvanus, and Timothy, was not, It is and It is not, but, It is, was in him.
20 Pabha malagano gowe ga a Nnungu gali mwa a Kilishitu ni ga “Elo” kwa lyene ligongolyo, “Amina” jetu pujilugulwa kwa lina lya a Yeshu nkwaakuya a Nnungu.
For all the promises of God are in him, It is; therefore also by him, amen to God, unto our glory.
21 Bhai a Nnungu bhayene bhanakutushimilika uwe pamo na mmanganya nkulundana na a Kilishitu. Na kutuagula,
Now he that confirmeth us with you in Christ, and that hath anointed us, is God:
22 bhenebho gubhatupele Mbumu jwabho mmitima jetu abhe lulembo kuti uwe tubhabho na abhe ngamulo ja indu yowe ibhatubhishile.
Who also hath sealed us, and given the pledge of the Spirit in our hearts.
23 A Nnungu ni bhakong'ondela bhangu ngaabheleketa unami, gundumbilile ngunaishe kabhili ku Kolinto ngunakummulayanga kuinjika kwa malobhe ga kalipa.
But I call God to witness upon my soul, that to spare you, I came not any more to Corinth:
24 Tukaapinga kunshishilishiyanga ga indu inkukulupalilanga, pabha mwiishimilikenje nngulupai jenunji. Ikabhe uwe tubhaajangutila bha angalala kwenunji.
not because we exercise dominion over your faith: but we are helpers of your joy: for in faith you stand.
