< 1 Timothy 1 >

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Saviour, and Christ Jesus our hope;
Une che Paolo nduna jwa Che Yesu Kilisito kwa kulajiswa ni Akunnungu Nkulupusyo jwetu pamo ni Che Yesu Kilisito chilolelo chetu.
2 unto Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Ngunnembela che Timoseo mwanangu jwa usyenesyene mu chikulupi. Ngummendela umbone ni chanasa ni chitendewele kutyochela kwa Akunnungu Atati ŵetu ni kwa Che Yesu Kilisito Ambuje ŵetu.
3 As I exhorted thee to tarry at Ephesus, when I was going into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge certain men not to teach a different doctrine,
Ngusaka nnonjele ku Efeso mpela ila inatite pakunchondelela katema panaliji nkwaula ku Makedonia. Kweleko kwana ŵandu ŵakujiganya majiganyo ga unami nkaakanye.
4 neither to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questionings, rather than a dispensation of God which is in faith; [so do I now].
Mwasalile alekangane ngano sya unami ni moŵa gose kugatanga meena ga achambuje ŵao pangali mbesi. Yele yose ikutandisya makani. Ngaikwalimbisya ŵandu mmasengo ga Akunnungu gagakutendeka kwa litala lya chikulupi.
5 But the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart and a good conscience and faith unfeigned:
Nningwa wa lyele lilajisyo uli unonyelo waukutyochela mu ntima weswela ni nkuimanyilila kuitenda yaili yambone ni chikulupi cha usyene.
6 from which things some having swerved have turned aside unto vain talking;
Nambo ŵandu ŵane gasoŵile gelego ni kugalauchila kuusyanausyana indu yangalimate.
7 desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor whereof they confidently affirm.
Ŵelewo akusaka aŵeje ŵakwiganya Malajisyo nambo achinsyene ngaakugamanyilila maloŵe gaakugaŵecheta atamuno indu yaakulimbila kuisala.
8 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully,
Tukumanyilila kuti Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gali gambone, iŵaga mundu chagawone kwa litala lyalikusachilwa kugawona.
9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and unruly, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
Tukumanyilila kuti Malajisyo nganigaŵichikwa kwa ligongo lya ŵandu ŵambone, nambo gaŵichikwe kwa ligongo lya ŵandu ŵangalumbana ni ŵangakugajitichisya Malajisyo, ni ŵandu ŵangakwapopela Akunnungu ni ŵaali ni sambi, ni ŵandu ŵangakwamanyilila Akunnungu ni ŵakutukana ni ŵandu ŵakwaulaga atati ni achikulu ŵao ni kwaulaga ŵandu ŵane.
10 for fornicators, for abusers of themselves with men, for menstealers, for liars, for false swearers, and if there be any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine;
Malajisyo gaŵichikwe kwa ligongo lya ŵachigwagwa ni kwa achalume ŵakugonana achinsyene pe ni kwa ŵakwasumisya ŵandu kuŵa achikapolo ni kwa ŵaunami ni kwa ŵakulumbilila unami ni kwa ŵakupanganya ipanganyo yangaikulandana ni majiganyo gausyene.
11 according to the gospel of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
Majiganyo ga gakutyochela mu Ngani Jambone jambele Akunnungu jwangulupilile lalichile Ngani Jambone jajikutyochela kwa Akunnungu ŵaali ni ukulu ni ŵakulapikwa moŵa gose.
12 I thank him that enabled me, [even] Christ Jesus our Lord, for that he counted me faithful, appointing me to [his] service;
Ngwatogolela Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito ŵandasile machili pa masengo gangu, pakuŵa amweni ndili jwakukulupilichika nipele ŵasagwile kuti natumichile.
13 though I was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: howbeit I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief;
Namuno kalakala naliji ngwatukana Akunnungu ni kwalagasya ŵandu ni naliji mundu jwaumenyani, Akunnungu ŵaangolele chanasa, ligongo natesile yeleyo nkuloŵela kwangu ni kwa ungamanyilila wangu ni pakuŵa nganingola chikulupi.
14 and the grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
Ambuje ŵetu ŵambele umbone wao wejinji ni chikulupi ni unonyelo watulinawo nkulumbikana ni Che Yesu Kilisito.
15 Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief:
Liloŵe li lili lyakukulupilichika ni kukundikwa, yakuti Che Yesu Kilisito ŵaiche pachilambo kukwakulupusya ŵaali ni sambi. None ndili jwa sambi kwapunda wose,
16 howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me as chief might Jesus Christ show forth all his longsuffering, for an ensample of them that should thereafter believe on him unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
nambo kwa lye ligongo lyo Akunnungu ŵangolele chanasa. Ŵatesile yele kuti kwa litala lyangune jwa sambi kwapunda ŵandu wose, Che Yesu Kilisito akombole kulosya upililiu wao. None mme chisyasyo kwa wose uchakulupilile ni kupochela umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōnios g166)
17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, [be] honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Sambano kwa Mwenye ŵa moŵa gose pangali mbesi, nombe ŵangakuwa namose ŵangakuwoneka, ni ŵaali Akunnungu ŵajika, ŵandu wose ŵaape luchimbichimbi ni ukulu mmoŵa gose pangali mbesi! Eloo. (aiōn g165)
18 This charge I commit unto thee, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which led the way to thee, that by them thou mayest war the good warfare;
Mwanangu che Timoseo, ngumpa ali lilajisyo li malinga ni maloŵe gakulondola gagaŵechetekwe kalakala gankati mwe. Maloŵe go ni gachigantende nkombole kumenyana ngondo jambone,
19 holding faith and a good conscience; which some having thrust from them made shipwreck concerning the faith:
mpunde kukamulisya chikulupi chenu ni majiganyo ga usyene ga chikulupi ni kuitenda yaili yambone pe. Ŵandu ŵane akanile kugajitichisya majiganyo ga usyene, kwayele achijonasile chikulupi chao.
20 of whom is Hymenæus and Alexander; whom I delivered unto Satan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
Mwa ŵelewo apali che Himeneyo ni che Alekisanda unajamwiche kwa kwalechela mmakono mwa Shetani kuti ajiganyikwe anaatukane Akunnungu.
