1 Ŵakolinto 16
1 Sambano ngusala yankati mbiya kwa ligongo lya kwakamuchisya ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu: Mpanganye achila chinalajisye mmipingo ja ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵa ku Galatia.
As to the collection for God's people, what I have directed the Churches of Galatia to do, you must do also.
2 Kila chijuma, kila mundu mwa ŵanyamwe asapule mbiya syasikutyochela mu yakupata yakwe, nipele agose kuti pachiiche ngasindenda nanjenunanjenu sooni.
On the first day of every week let each of you put on one side and store up at his home whatever gain has been granted to him; so that whenever I come, there may then be no collections going on.
3 Namalaga kwika kukwenu, aŵala ŵandu uchimwasagule pasikati jenu, chinaatume ni chikalata chakwamanyisya, ni ajausye mbote syenu ku Yelusalemu.
And when I am with you, whatever brethren you accredit by letter I will send to carry your kind gift to Jerusalem.
4 Iŵaga chiiwoneche ili yambone noneji nyaule, nipele ŵele ŵanduwo chalongane none.
And if it is worth while for me also to make the journey, they shall go as my companions.
5 Chiiche kweleko namalaga kupita ku Makedonia, pakuŵa ngusaka kwaula ku Makedonia.
I shall come to you after passing through Macedonia; for my plan will be to pass through Macedonia;
6 Panjipa chindame ni ŵanyamwe kwa moŵa kanandi pane chindame katema kose kambepo kuti mpakombole kungamusya mu ulendo wangu kulikose kuchinyaule.
and I shall make some stay with you perhaps, or even spend the winter with you, in order that you may help me forward, whichever way I travel.
7 Pakuŵa ngangusaka kuonegana ni ŵanyamwe ni kupelenganya. Ngulolela kutama ni ŵanyamwe kwa katema kakajinji Ambuje asakaga.
For I do not wish to see you on this occasion merely in passing; but if the Lord permits, I hope to remain some time with you.
8 Chindame ku Efeso mpaka lyuŵa lya Pentekosite,
I shall remain in Ephesus, however, until the time of the Harvest Festival,
9 pakuŵa Ambuje amugulile nnango kupanganya masengo gamakulungwa, namuno kweleko kwana ŵandu achajinji ŵakunganila.
for a wide door stands open before me which demands great efforts, and we have many opponents.
10 Che Timoseo aikaga kukwenu, nkantendekasya akole lipamba pachatame ni ŵanyamwe, pakuŵa ŵelewo akugapanganya masengo ga Ambuje mpela une.
If Timothy pays you a visit, see that he is free from fear in his relations with you; for he is engaged in the Master's work just as I am.
11 Nipele mundu jwalijose akasannyelusya jwelejo, nambo munkamusye ajendelechele ni ulendo kwa chitendewele kuti apakombole kumujila. Pakuŵa ngwalolela auje pamo ni achalongo ŵane.
Therefore let no one slight him, but all of you should help him forward in peace to join me; for I am waiting for him and others of the brethren.
12 Sambano ngusala yankati ngani ja nlongo njetu che Apolo: Nachondelele kwannope aiche kukwenu pamo ni achalongo ŵane. Nambo ngakusaka kwika kweleko katema kano, nambo chaiche pachachikola lipesa.
As for our brother Apollos, I have repeatedly urged him to accompany the brethren who are coming to you: but he is quite resolved not to do so at present. He will come, however, when he has a good opportunity.
13 Nchesye, njime uchenene mu chikulupi, mmeje ŵakulimbila ni mmeje ŵamachili.
Be on the alert; stand firm in the faith; acquit yourselves like men; be strong.
14 Kila chindu chinkupanganya mpanganyeje kwa unonyelo.
Let all that you do be done from motives of love.
15 Sambano achalongo achinjangu, nkwamanyilila che Sitefano ni ŵandu ŵaali mu nyuumba jakwe, ŵelewo ŵalongolele kuŵa Ŵakilisito ku Akaya ko, nipele ŵalityosisye achinsyene kwatumichila ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu. Kwapele achalongo achinjangu ngunchondelela,
And I beseech you, brethren--you know the household of Stephanas, how they were the earliest Greek converts to Christ, and have devoted themselves to the service of God's people--
16 mwajitichisye ŵandu mpela ŵelewo ni kila mundu jwakupanganya masengo ni kutumichila pamo nawo.
I beseech you, on your part, to show deference to such men, and to every one who participates in their work and toils hard.
17 Ngusengwa nnope paikangene che Sitefano ni che Futunata ni che Akaiko, pakuŵa ŵelewo ŵangamuchisye kupanganya masengo agala gamwapanganyaga ŵanyamwe katema kanganimpagwa.
It is a joy to me that Stephanas, Fortunatus and Achaicus have now arrived, because what was wanting so far as you are concerned they have supplied.
18 Ŵelewo angonjile ntima wangu mpela iŵatite pakujikonga mitima jenu, ŵandu mpela ŵelewo ili yambone kwakumbuchila.
They have refreshed my spirit, and yours. Acknowledge such men as these.
19 Mipingo jose ja ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵa ku Asia jikunkomasya. Che Akila ni che Pilisila pamo ni mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito waukusongangana mu nyuumba jao, akunkomasya kwa lina lya Ambuje.
The Churches in the province of Asia send you greetings; and Aquila and Prisca, in hearty Christian love, do the same, together with the Church which meets at their house.
20 Ni achalongo wose ŵaali pelepa akunkomasya. Nkomasyane kwakulosya unonyelo wa Kilisito.
The brethren all send greetings to you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
21 Uneji, che Paolo ngunkomasya, ngulemba kwa nkono wangu nansyene.
The final greeting of me--Paul--with my own hand.
22 Mundu jwalijose jwangasaka kwanonyela Ambuje, jwelejo alwesechekwe! Maranatha malumbo gakwe njise Ambuje ŵetu.
If any one is destitute of love to the Lord, let him be accursed. OUR LORD IS COMING.
23 Ngunsachila umbone kutyochela kwa Ambuje Che Yesu.
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.
24 Unonyelo wangune uŵe pamo ni mwanyamwe wose ŵanlumbikene ni Kilisito Che Yesu.
My love in Christ Jesus be with you all.
