1 Timotheo 5
1 Kik idhaw gi ngʼama duongʼ gi dwol makwiny, to wuo kode mamuol giluor mana ka wuonu monywoli. Kaw yawuowi matindo ka oweteni,
Do not rebuke an older man, but exhort him as a father; the younger men as brothers;
2 to mon madongo kaw ka mineni, kendo mon matindo kaw ka nyimineni, e yo maler chutho.
the older women as mothers; the younger as sisters, in all purity.
3 Nyaka ipar mon ma chwogi otho modongʼ kendgi madwaro kony e yor adiera.
Honor widows who are widows indeed.
4 To ka dhako ma chwore otho moro nigi nyithindo kata nyikwayo to ber mondo gitingʼ nying Nyasaye malo kuom rito joodgi ka gikonyo jonywolgi gi kweregi kod deyegi, nikech timo kamano longʼo ni Nyasaye.
But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them learn first to show piety towards their own family, and to repay their parents, for this is acceptable in the sight of God.
5 Dhako ma chwore otho keto genone duto kuom Nyasaye, kendo osiko olamo odiechiengʼ gotieno kokwayo Nyasaye mondo okonye.
Now she who is a widow indeed, and desolate, has her hope set on God, and continues in petitions and prayers night and day.
6 To dhako ma chwore otho mohero mor mar piny, osetho kata obedo ni pod ongima.
But she who gives herself to pleasure is dead while she lives.
7 Puonj ji wechegi bende, mondo kik ngʼato obed gi bura.
Also command these things, so that they will be without fault.
8 Ka ngʼato ok orito wedene, to moloyo ka ok orito joode owuon, to osekwedo yie marwa, kendo orach moloyo japiny.
But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever.
9 Dhako moro amora ma chwore otho ok nyal ndik nyinge kama indike nying mon ma chwogi otho ka hikgi ok oloyo higni piero auchiel, to bende nyaka bed ni ne osebedo ja-adiera e dakne gi chwore,
Let no one be enrolled as a widow under sixty years old, having been the wife of one man,
10 kendo ongʼeye kuom timbene mabeyo kaka oserito nyithindo e yo mowinjore kendo osebedo kohero rwako welo e ode, kendo osebedo ka olwoko tiend jomaler kendo ka okonyo joma ni e chandruok, kochiwore chuth ni timo gik mabeyo duto.
being approved by good works, if she has brought up children, if she has been hospitable to strangers, if she has washed the saints' feet, if she has relieved the afflicted, and if she has diligently followed every good work.
11 Kik iyie mondo mon ma chwogi otho ma pod tindo ndik nying-gi kama indikoe nying mon ma chwogi otho. Nikech ka ringregi ohewogi gi gombo to giweyo Kristo ka gimanyo chwo mondo okendgi.
But refuse younger widows, for whenever their passions lead them away from Meshikha, they desire to marry;
12 Kuom mano gikelo kum kuomgi giwegi, nikech giseketho singruokgi mokwongo.
having condemnation, because they have rejected their first pledge.
13 To bende ewi mano, gibedo jo-samuoyo ma budho abudha, ka gibayo abaya e ute ji koni gi koni. Ok gibed mana jo-samuoyo ma budho abudha kende, to bende gibedo jokuoth ka gichuogore e weche ji mamoko kendo ka giwuoyo e weche ma ok onego giwuoye.
Besides, they also learn to be idle, going about from house to house. Not only idle, but also gossips and busybodies, saying things which they ought not.
14 Kuom mano daher mondo mon ma chwogi otho matindo okendi, mondo ginywol nyithindo, kendo girit utegi mondo kik gimi jasigu thuolo mar ketho nying joma oyie.
I desire therefore that the younger widows marry, bear children, rule the household, and give no occasion to the adversary for reviling.
15 Chutho, moko odok chien mi koro giluwo Satan.
For already some have turned aside after Satana.
16 To ka ngʼama oyie moro odak gi mon ma chwogi otho e dalane, onego okonygi en owuon mondo kik kanisa bed gi tingʼ mapek mar ritogi, eka kanisa okony mon ma chwogi otho mamoko man kendgi chuth maonge ngʼama nyalo konyogi.
If any believing woman has widows, she must assist them, and do not let the church be burdened; that it might help those widows who are truly in need.
17 Jodong kanisa morito weche mag kanisa onego yud pok margi nyadiriyo, to moloyo jodongo ma tichgi en yalo kod puonjo wach Nyasaye.
Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and in teaching.
18 Nimar Ndiko owacho niya, “Kik utwe dho dhiangʼ kaywayo lodi ma idinogo cham,” kendo niya, “Jatich ber gi chudo kuom tije motiyo.”
For the Scripture says, "You shall not muzzle the ox when it treads out the grain." And, "The laborer is worthy of his wages."
19 Kik iyie gi ketho modonjnego jaduongʼ kanisa kaonge joneno ariyo kata adek.
Do not receive an accusation against an elder, except at the word of two or three witnesses.
20 Joma osiko timo richo nyaka kwer ratiro e nyim ji eka joma moko obed maluor.
Those who sin, reprove in the sight of all, that the rest also may be in fear.
21 Achiki e nyim Nyasaye kendo e nyim Kristo Yesu, kaachiel gi malaika moyier, ni mondo ilu puonjgi adimba ma ok idewo wangʼ ngʼato kendo ma ok idok kor ngʼato angʼata.
I command you in the sight of God, and Meshikha Yeshua, and the chosen angels, that you observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality.
22 Kik irikni yieyo lwedo kuom ji, kendo kik iriwri e richo ji mamoko. Ritri mondo ngimani osik kaler.
Do not ordain anyone hastily, nor participate in the sins of others. Keep yourself pure.
23 Ok onego imodh pi kende, to madh divai matin mondo okonyni iyi nikech midekre ma in-go pile.
Be no longer a drinker of water only, but use a little wine for your stomach's sake and your frequent infirmities.
24 Jomoko richogi ongʼongʼore kendo otelo nyimgi ka terogi e bura to richo jomoko to opondo kendo luwo bangʼ-gi.
The sins of some people are obvious, going before them to judgment, but those of others show up later.
25 Mano bende e kaka tim ngʼato makare bende ongʼongʼore, kendo kata mana mago motimo mopondo fwenyore bangʼe.
In the same way also there are good works that are obvious, and those that are otherwise cannot be hidden.
