1 Timothy 4
1 But the Spirit says expressly that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons,
Lino umepo inchova pavuvalafu ukhuta eimiseikhi eigiikwincha avange avanu valaluleka ulwidiko nukwiyumilincha ukhupulihincha i mepo inchisyova nulumanisyo ulya khimepo.
2 through the hypocrisy of men who speak lies, branded in their own conscience as with a hot iron,
uguuvamanyilaga mumbudesi nuvusyovi. Uweigane wa veene vulasytuka.
3 forbidding marriage and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.
Valasiga ukutola nu kyupilila ifinu ifi u Unguluve afivumbile fivombeliwagwe ukusaniela muugaati mumbene muveidiki uvuvayimanyile ilweli.
4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving.
Ulwakhuva khila khinu inkyavumbile Unguluve akhivumble khenonu. Khisikuli ikyutupoke nukhusana khinaghiwa nukhubeliwa.
5 For it is sanctified through the word of God and prayer.
Ulwakhuva kivalanchiwe ukhugendela eilimenyu lya Nguluve kunjila iyakhudova.
6 If you instruct the brothers of these things, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, nourished in the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed.
Unganchiveikhe imbombo inchi pavulongolo palukololyo, wiva mbombi einonu va Yeesu Kilisiti.
7 But refuse profane and old wives’ fables. Exercise yourself toward godliness.
Ulwakhuva ukhulite mumamenyu aga lwidiko nulumanyisyo ulunonu ululukongile. Pivu mubelage ifibchago ifya khilunga ifinugiwa na avadala avagogolo. Pivu pilondiwa, umanyiele yuve mumbuvalanche.
8 For bodily exercise has some value, but godliness has value in all things, having the promise of the life which is now and of that which is to come.
Ulwakhuva uvunchovele wa mbivi khunogile padebe, ukhuva uvuvalanche vunogiwa mno khumbombo nchoni. Khulolela ulwidikahno ulwavutamo uwalino nuvukwincha.
9 This saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance.
Ululagilo ulwu lwakwediekiwa lunogiwe ukwideikiwa lweli.
10 For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we have set our trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe.
Ulwakhuva khumbombo inchi tugaatanchiwa nukhwiyumilincha ukhuvomba imbombo einoo. Ulwakuva tulinawo uvukifu mwa Nguluve umwumi, uvei-impoki va vanu voni, kuvala avikhumawidika.
11 Command and teach these things.
Uvei inchova nukhumanyisya imbombo inchi.
12 Let no man despise your youth; but be an example to those who believe, in word, in your way of life, in love, in spirit, in faith, and in purity.
Umunu uviaveenchaga alekhage ukhuubeda uvudebe uwako. Pivu avinchage vakhuva khilolelo khuvoni avikhumwidikha, munjovele, mundogeendo, mundugano, mundwidiko, na mbunonu.
13 Until I come, pay attention to reading, to exhortation, and to teaching.
Impaka uponielincha, ugiembage mukumanyila, mukhuvunga, na mukumanyisya.
14 Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the elders.
Ulabedaga ikhikhungielwa ikhilimugaati indyuve, ikyuwakavile ukhugeendala kuvanyamalago, nukhusayiwa na mavoko navagogolo.
15 Be diligent in these things. Give yourself wholly to them, that your progress may be revealed to all.
Unchigahinchage imbombo nchi. Mwutamilage mumwa. Pivu ukhukula kulwuve kuvinchage pavuvalafu kuvanu vonu. Unchinganchage ulugendelo lwako ni manyisyo.
16 Pay attention to yourself and to your teaching. Continue in these things, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.
Tamaga mumbombo iye. Ulwakhuva ukhuvomba eiwo pivu yuwukhipokha yuve viemwene kuvala avikukupulikhincha.
