< 1 Thessalonians 3 >

1 Therefore, no longer covering over it, we preferred to be left behind in Athens alone.
Sadꞌi hei bubꞌuluꞌ, leleꞌ hai lao hela nggi a, nda tungga hai hihii ma sa. Hai maeꞌ a ima mita hei, te nda bisa sa. Dꞌodꞌoo ma hai nda miꞌitataaꞌ sa ena, naa de hai miꞌetuꞌ fee Timotius neti. Te au o Silas mihati sia Atena. Timotius naa hai toronoo ma. Eni hai nonoom mana no hai milalao Yesus Karistus Dudꞌui Malolen. Hai denu e neti nanori ma tao manggatetee rala mara, naa fo hei boe mimihere mihereꞌ neu Lamatulain.
2 And we sent Timothy, our brother, and a helper of God, and our fellow workman in the good news of the Christ, in order to establish you and to encourage you about your faith,
3 for no man to be disturbed by these afflictions. For ye yourselves know that we are set for this.
No taꞌo naa, mete ma hambu sususaꞌ, hei nda minggonggaꞌ sa. Toꞌu mihereꞌ hei nemeherem. Huu hei bubꞌuluꞌ, atahori mana ramahere neu Karistus ra, dei fo hambu sususaꞌ taꞌo naa.
4 For also when we were with you we foretold you that we were going to be oppressed, just as it also happened, and ye know.
Feꞌesaꞌan, leleꞌ hai feꞌe miꞌibꞌue mo nggi, hai fee nesenenedꞌaꞌ mae, atahori mana ramahere neu Lamatuaꞌ Yesus dei fo hambu sususaꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ. Ia naa basa e dadꞌi taꞌo naa ena, to!
5 Because of this, I too, no longer covering over it, sent in order to know your faith, lest somehow he who tempts was tempting you, and our labor became in vain.
Huu au susa ae mate o hei tetende-nemberii mara, de au denu Timotius Tesalonika neti, naa fo hai bubꞌuluꞌ, hei feꞌe mimihere mikindoo neu Lamatuaꞌ, do hokoꞌ. Te au umutau, afiꞌ losa nitu ra malangga monaen nema sobꞌa-dꞌou nggi, fo misidꞌea Lamatuaꞌ. Mete ma dadꞌi taꞌo naa, na hai ue-taom maꞌahulum naa, parsumaꞌ a.
6 But now of Timothy, having come to us from you, and having proclaimed good news to us of your faith and love, and that ye always have a good recollection of us, longing to see us, just as we also you,
Ia naa Timotius baliꞌ mia Tesalonika, ma nendi hara nemehoꞌoꞌ fee hai. Ana dui nae, hei mimihere mikindoo neu Kristus, ma hei o esa sue esa mikindooꞌ a. Ana o nafadꞌe nae, hei misinedꞌa hai mikindooꞌ a de mae mindaa mo hai onaꞌ a hai o mae mindaa mo hei boe.
7 because of this, brothers, we were encouraged toward you in all our affliction and necessity through your faith.
Toronoo nggare! Mae hai sia ia mimedꞌa beran seli huu sususaꞌ ia-naa nda mbei-mbeiꞌ a sa, te Timotius dudꞌuin tao hai mimihoꞌo tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ. Huu ia na hai bubꞌuluꞌ ena mae, hei mimihere mihereꞌ neu Lamatuaꞌ.
8 Because now we live, if ye stand firm in the Lord.
9 For what thanks can we repay God about you, for all the joy in which we rejoiced because of you before our God,
Dadꞌi hai moꞌe makasi nae-nae neu Lamatualain no rala nemehoꞌot onaꞌ ia, huu hei tungga mikindoo E.
10 praying night and day above extraordinary in order to see your face and to mend the deficiencies of your faith?
Hatuꞌ-rerelon hai hule-oꞌe mikindooꞌ a, fo, ona bee na hita feꞌe bisa tandaa seluꞌ fai. Hai mae minori fo hei bubꞌuluꞌ basa dalaꞌ soaꞌ neu Lamatualain dala masodꞌan.
11 Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way to you.
Hai mimihena Lamatualain, hita Aman, no Yesus Kristus hita malanggan, soi dalaꞌ fo hai meti mindaa mo nggi fai.
12 And may the Lord make you increase and abound in love toward each other, and toward all men, just as also we toward you,
Hai moꞌe Lamatuaꞌ fo fee hei esa sue-lai esa naeꞌ lenaꞌ fai. Ma hei o sue-lai basa atahori, onaꞌ hai o sue hei taꞌo naa boe.
13 in order to establish your hearts unblameable in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his sanctified.
No taꞌo naa, Lamatuaꞌ tao manggatee rala mara, fo misodꞌa ndos no meumareꞌ, losa Lamatuaꞌ Yesus heoꞌ baliꞌ nema no atahori Nara, na, hei hambu mimbiriiꞌ sia hita Aman Lamatualain matan, nda lemba salaꞌ saa sa boe.
