1 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ according to the commandment of God our Savior and the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,
Paulo, usukhya va Yeesu Kilisiti uholehana ni ndagelo ncha Nguluve UYeesu Klilisiti uyavile nyalyekasyo hyolyofe.
2 to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
hya Timotheo umanango uvayelyeli khulwedkho uluhungo, Ulyesayo ne amani nchincho nchi homana Nguluve Udaada Uyesu Kilisiti Untwa veto.
3 As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain men not to teach a different doctrine,
Ponehahusisitisye vunihega uhuluta humakedonia, usigale kho Efeso powesye ukuvasisitesya nohuva mulesya avanu fulani vafundesiwe amofundesyo gagosagahyanine.
4 and not to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than God’s stewardship, which is in faith.
Vasite uhupolehencha ihadisi nihadisi ne uloza ncha nasaba nchincho mwisuo. Ago gugisababisya amabishanonuzaidi nukuvatanga okholuta elatiba ya U Nguluve va lyedeho.
5 But the goal of this command is love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith,
Nilengo lya lolagelo ile ulugano luhamana numbula enonu, khinia enonu nulyedeho ulyalyeli.
6 from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned away to vain talking,
Avanu valekosekhinche elimenyu vagalehele amafundisyo aga vavehile ukhochova ekhepumbafu.
7 desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say nor about what they strongly affirm.
Vinogwa ukhota vamanyesi va ululagelo, ulwakhuva savahemanyile ekhevichova au ekhevisisitesya.
8 But we know that the law is good if a person uses it lawfully,
tulumanyile uhota ululagelo ulunonu kama umunu itiumela khovo sahihi.
9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
TUlumanyile ukhuta, ululagelo ulu sayehatongingiwe khu munu unyawolyeli khuvavo videnya ululagelo nuvovivi avanu davosio vavalanche avalevovole u Nguluve nimbivi yetungiwe huvabudu avibuda hava odaada yawo vavaninawo ava vobudi.
10 for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine,
Khombombo yavaligu, khombombo ya vanu amalaya navavo visiwa avanu vikhovavomba vasukhwa, khombombo ya vadesi, khombombo ya wasaidiwa vodesi, yeyeyoni uyovile hosana ni ndagelo uwononu.
11 according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
Ululagelo lahoma niliwangeli nivuvaha wa Nguluve yoywa uyisg nukhyaminiwa.
12 I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service,
Nikhondemmya uYeesu Kilisite Umtwa vetu. Akhamile ingovu, alipahuva akhambalile unene khavogolofu, akhombeho mmbombo.
13 although I used to be a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
Nale munu va hotesya nukhumanga. Napatile olosayo ulyakova navombile khovopumbafu ulya khosita khuva mwedesi.
14 The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
Ulyaheva uluhungu lya Nguluve adegile uwedefu nulugano uwa Kilisiti uYeesu.
15 The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.
Ululagelo ulu lukwaminiwa lugiwa ukhupelela na voni ulya uYeesu ahinchile ikhelunga ukhola awanembivi. Une nelimbivi kholiho voni.
16 However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Jesus Christ might display all his patience for an example of those who were going to believe in him for consummate (aiōnios g166) life.
Ulyakhuva one napeviwe ikhisa ulyahova igati ndyone, ulyahanja, Kilisiti UYesu avonesye uvofumelefu woni. Ahavombile evo ukhuta kheve khehya ni huvohi avayaheva vikhokonga khuwomi wa sihu nchoni. (aiōnios g166)
17 Now to the King of the ages (aiōn g165), immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory for the ages (aiōn g165) of the ages (aiōn g165). Amen.
Numbaha uyalevovote umwisyo, uyosifya uyusovoneha u Nguluve mwene, wav wodwado nu wowakha sihu nchoni. Amee. (aiōn g165)
18 I commit this instruction to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which were given to you before, that by them you may wage the good warfare,
Nikholoveha ululagelo ulukhuvolungolo khulyove Timotheo, vemwana vango. Nivomba ewa okhohomana na malago, agohamile khulyove uhuhuma huvutengolelo hulyove, ukhuta ukhusehe mvita ifinonu.
19 holding faith and a good conscience, which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith,
Uvombe ovo ukhuta uve nolyedekho. Avanu avange vahangumile vabela ulyedeho.
20 of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
Ndoloyevelile himeneyo nu alekizanda yoywa nepile utavango osetano afundesiwe asite uhokufuni.
