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,
Neni Paulu ntumintumi gwa Kristu Yesu kwa lilagaliru lya Mlungu Mlopoziya gwetu na Kristu Yesu litumbiru lyetu.
2 to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Nukulembera Timotewu yaguwera gambira mwana gwangu gwa nakaka munjimiru. Mlungu Tati gwetu na Mtuwa gwetu Kristu Yesu kakupanani gwenga manemu ga Mlungu na lusungu na ponga.
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,
Gulikali aku Efesu, handa ntambu yanukuluwiti nentu panweriti nankugenda Makedoniya. Na aku guwaleweleri wantu walii yawafunda mafundu ga mpayu.
4 and not to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than God’s stewardship, which is in faith.
Guwagambiri nawakolerana na tambu hera za kupaya pamuhera na kuvimana matawu ga wambuyi yagahera upeleru. Na kugamana matawu gavuwa ga wambuyi, geni gajega likakatala hera, pota kuwanyawa wantu mulihengu lya Mlungu lyalimanika kwa njimiru.
5 But the goal of this command is love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith,
Nfiru ya amuli ayi ndo mafiliru yagalawa munjimiru iherepa na kufira kusyagula gaherepa na moyu gwa gwehera vidoda.
6 from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned away to vain talking,
Wantu wamu waleka njira kwa kugaleka aga na kuvigendera vitwatira vyavifaa ndiri.
7 desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say nor about what they strongly affirm.
Womberi wafira waweri wafunda wa Malagaliru ga Musa, kumbiti wavimana ndiri shawatakula ama galii gawagolokera.
8 But we know that the law is good if a person uses it lawfully,
Tuvimana handa Malagaliru ga Musa gaherepa, handa pakagatendera ntambu yaifiruwa.
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,
Ntambu iraayi gufiruwa kulihola handa Malagaliru ga Musa gatulwa ndiri toziya ya wantu waheri, kumbiti gatulwa toziya ya wantu yawamega malagaliru ga Musa na wantu yawajimira ndiri na wantu yawamtira ndiri Mlungu na wana vidoda na wantu wananagala ndiri na yawamana ndiri njira ya Mlungu na wantu yawawalaga wamawu na watati wawu ama walaga woseri walii.
10 for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine,
Malagaliru ga Musa gatulwa toziya ya wahumba na wapalu yawaligonja weni kwa weni na yawashuwuza wantu na yawapaya na yawalilapira kwa upaya ama yawatenda shoseri sha kugenderana ndiri na mafundu ga nakaka.
11 according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
Mafundu aga gapatikana Mushisoweru Shiwagira sha ukwisa wa Mlungu yakawera na matekeleru, ndogeni gampananitwi neni mpati kushibwera.
12 I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service,
Mayagashii Mtuwa gwetu Kristu Yesu yakampananiti makakala, toziya ya lihengu lyangu. Nongamayagashi kwa kumona neni ndo mwaminika, kansyaguliti numtenderi.
13 although I used to be a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
Makashu neni nweriti mwigiranga na mtabisiya na ndenditi ndewu, kumbiti Mlungu kamonera lusungu toziya nweriti ndiri na moyu, hangu nuvimaniti ndiri shanweriti nankutenda.
14 The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
Na Mtuwa gwetu kamupananiti manemu gakuwi gavuwa, kamupananiti njimiru na mafiliru gatuwera naga kwa mukuwera pamuhera na Kristu Yesu.
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.
Utakula awu wanakaka nentu na ufaa kujimilwa, Kristu Yesu kiziti pasipanu kuwalopoziya wantu yawatenda vidoda. Naneni nanavidoda nentu ya woseri,
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.
Kumbiti Mlungu kamoniriti lusungu neni nweriti nana vidoda nentu ya woseri su Kristu Yesu kalanguziyi uhepera wakuwi woseri kwa neni, handa shilanguziwu kwa walii woseri hawamjimiri shapakanu na kwanka ukomu wa mashaka goseri. (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.
Vinu kwa Mfalumi gwa mashaka goseri, yakaweza ndiri kuhowa na yakawoneka ndiri, Mlungu gwa gweka, su na iweri ligoya na ukwisa mashaka goseri! Yina haa. (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,
Mwanagwangu Timotewu, nukupanana lilagaliru ali toziya ya visoweru vya umbuyi wa Mlungu vyavikutakulira gwenga pamakashu. Guvitendi visoweru avi su guwezi kulikomanga ngondu iyerepa ya kulikomanga na ukondola,
19 holding faith and a good conscience, which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith,
Na gukamuli weri njimiru yaku na kuwera muntu wa kusyagula na kutenda yagawera gaherepa. Wantu wamonga waleka kutenda aga ata waguhalibiziya moyu gwawu.
20 of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
Pakati pawu Himenayu na Alekizanda, ndoweni nuwapanani kwa Shetani, su wavimani nawamwigilanga Mlungu kayi.
