< Romans 14 >

1 Now accept one who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions.
Muwashemeri wantu walii yawawera na njimiru ndidini, kumbiti namakakatalu nawomberi kuusu maholu gawu weni.
2 One man has faith to eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.
Njimiru ya wantu wamu iwalekiziya womberi shintu shoseri, kumbiti muntu yakawera na njimiru ndidini kaliyaga likolu hera.
3 Do not let him who eats despise him who does not eat. Do not let him who does not eat judge him who eats, for God has accepted him.
Muntu yakaliya shintu shoseri nakamtoza muntu yakaliya ndiri kila shintu na ulii yakaliya likolu hera nakamtoza muntu yakaliya kila shintu, toziya Mlungu kamshemera muntu ayu.
4 Who are you who judge another’s servant? To his own lord he stands or falls. Yes, he will be made to stand, for God has power to make him stand.
Hashi, gwenga gwa gaa yagumtoza ntumintumi gwa muntu yumonga? Ali ndo lishawuli lya Mtuwa kuwera womberi wapati ama wapati ndiri. Womberi hawapati, toziya Mtuwa kaweza kuwatenda womberi wapati.
5 One man esteems one day as more important. Another esteems every day alike. Let each man be fully assured in his own mind.
Wantu wamu wahola kuwera lishaka tunga lyana ligoya nentu kuliku mashaka gamonga na wamonga walihola kuwera goseri gawera teratera. Kila muntu kaweri na msimamu gwa mahala gakuwi.
6 He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks. He who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.
Wantu woseri yawalihola nentu kuusu lishaka tunga, watenda hangu kwa kumpanana ligoya Mtuwa. Womberi yawaliya kila shintu, watenda kwa kumpanana ligoya Mtuwa, toziya womberi walonga mayagashii Mlungu kwa shiboga. Na woseri yawaliya ndiri kila shintu, wankutenda hangu kwa kumpanana ligoya Mtuwa na walonga mayagashii Mlungu.
7 For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.
Twenga tulikala ndiri toziya ya twaweni twenga hera na twenga tuhowa ndiri toziya ya twaweni twenga hera.
8 For if we live, we live to the Lord. Or if we die, we die to the Lord. If therefore we live or die, we are the Lord’s.
Handa patulikala tulikala toziya ya Mtuwa na handa patuhowa tuhowa toziya ya Mtuwa. Su patuhowa ama patulikala, twenga twawantu wa Mtuwa.
9 For to this end Christ died, rose, and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.
Toziya Kristu kahowiti na kazyukiti su kapati kuwera Mtuwa gwa wakomu na yawahowiti.
10 But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
Iwera hashi gwenga gwankuwatoza wamonga yawaliya likolu hera? Iwera hashi gwenga gwankuwabeza walongu wamonga yawaliya kila shintu? Twenga twoseri hatugoloki kutozwa kulongolu kwa Mlungu.
11 For it is written, “‘As I live,’ says the Lord, ‘to me every knee will bow. Every tongue will confess to God.’”
Ntambu Malembu Mananagala galembwa, “Mtuwa kalonga, nakaka neni Mlungu mkomu, Kila muntu hakansuntamalili neni na kila muntu hakankwisi neni ndo Mlungu.”
12 So then each one of us will give account of himself to God.
Shakapanu kila muntu pakati pa twenga, hakalaviyi mawalanga kulongolu kwa Mlungu.
13 Therefore let’s not judge one another any more, but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block in his brother’s way, or an occasion for falling.
Su, tuleki kulitozana twaweni, kumbiti tuleki kutenda shoseri shashiwatenda wamonga watendi vidoda.
14 I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean of itself; except that to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
Kulikolerana kwangu pamuhera na Mtuwa Yesu, kuntenda neni moni kwahera shiboga shashiwera shihumba, kumbiti handa gujimira kuwera shiboga shamu shiwera shihumba, shakapanu shiwera shihumba kwa gwenga.
15 Yet if because of food your brother is grieved, you walk no longer in love. Do not destroy with your food him for whom Christ died.
Handa paguwatenduwa wamonga toziya ya shintu shoseri shaguliya, matendu gaku gahera mafiliru. Naguleka shiboga shaguliya shimwagamiziyi muntu ndomweni Kristu kahowiti toziya yamweni.
16 Then do not let your good be slandered,
Su namjimira shintu shamushiwona kuwera shiheri washibeza.
17 for God’s Kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Toziya Ufalumi wa Mlungu ndo ndiri kuliya na kulanda, kumbiti kumfiriziya Mlungu na kuwera na ponga na kuwera na nemeleru yayijegwa na Rohu Mnanagala.
18 For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.
Na pagumtendera Kristu ntambu ayi, gwenga gumuherepeziya Mlungu na kujimirwa na wantu.
19 So then, let’s follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.
Su twenga tufiruwa mashaka goseri tuvitendi vitwatira vyavijega ponga na galii yagatutenda tulitangani twaweni.
20 Do not overthrow God’s work for food’s sake. All things indeed are clean, however it is evil for that man who creates a stumbling block by eating.
Su nagulyagamiziya lihengu lyakatenditi Mlungu toziya ya viboga. Viboga vyoseri guweza kuliya, kumbiti iherepa ndiri kuliya viboga vyavimtenda muntu yoseri katendi vidoda.
21 It is good to not eat meat, drink wine, nor do anything by which your brother stumbles, is offended, or is made weak.
Mbaka kuleka kuliya litota na kulanda togwa, ama kutenda shoseri shilii shashiwatenda walongu watendi vidoda.
22 Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who does not judge himself in that which he approves.
Su gukoleri shagujimira kuusu shitwatira ashi, shakapanu pakati pa gwenga na Mlungu. Mbaka kwa wantu walii yawajimira ndiri kutenda vidoda, pawajimira kutenda shintu shoseri womberi wavimana kuwera goseri gaherepa
23 But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it is not of faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin.
kumbiti muntu yakahera unakaka kuusu shiboga shawaliya, Mlungu hakamtozi pawaliya, toziya matendu gawu gawera munjimiru. Na shoseri shashiwera ndiri munjimiru ndo vidoda.
