1 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the command of God our Savior and of Christ Jesus our hope,
Paulo, usukhya va Yeesu Kilisiti uholehana ni ndagelo ncha Nguluve UYeesu Klilisiti uyavile nyalyekasyo hyolyofe.
2 To Timothy, my true child in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the 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 on my departure to Macedonia, you should stay on at Ephesus to instruct certain men not to teach false doctrines
Ponehahusisitisye vunihega uhuluta humakedonia, usigale kho Efeso powesye ukuvasisitesya nohuva mulesya avanu fulani vafundesiwe amofundesyo gagosagahyanine.
4 or devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies, which promote speculation rather than the stewardship of God’s work, which is by faith.
Vasite uhupolehencha ihadisi nihadisi ne uloza ncha nasaba nchincho mwisuo. Ago gugisababisya amabishanonuzaidi nukuvatanga okholuta elatiba ya U Nguluve va lyedeho.
5 The goal of our instruction is the love that comes from a pure heart, a clear conscience, and a sincere faith.
Nilengo lya lolagelo ile ulugano luhamana numbula enonu, khinia enonu nulyedeho ulyalyeli.
6 Some have strayed from these ways and turned aside to empty talk.
Avanu valekosekhinche elimenyu vagalehele amafundisyo aga vavehile ukhochova ekhepumbafu.
7 They want to be teachers of the law, but they do not understand what they are saying or that which they so confidently assert.
Vinogwa ukhota vamanyesi va ululagelo, ulwakhuva savahemanyile ekhevichova au ekhevisisitesya.
8 Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it legitimately.
tulumanyile uhota ululagelo ulunonu kama umunu itiumela khovo sahihi.
9 We realize that law is not enacted for the righteous, but for the lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinful, for the unholy and profane, for killers of father or mother, for murderers,
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 and liars and perjurers, and for anyone else who is averse to sound teaching
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 that agrees with the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I have been entrusted.
Ululagelo lahoma niliwangeli nivuvaha wa Nguluve yoywa uyisg nukhyaminiwa.
12 I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, that He considered me faithful and appointed me to service.
Nikhondemmya uYeesu Kilisite Umtwa vetu. Akhamile ingovu, alipahuva akhambalile unene khavogolofu, akhombeho mmbombo.
13 I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and a violent man; yet because I had acted in ignorance and unbelief, I was shown mercy.
Nale munu va hotesya nukhumanga. Napatile olosayo ulyakova navombile khovopumbafu ulya khosita khuva mwedesi.
14 And the grace of our Lord overflowed to me, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
Ulyaheva uluhungu lya Nguluve adegile uwedefu nulugano uwa Kilisiti uYeesu.
15 This is a trustworthy saying, worthy of full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the worst.
Ululagelo ulu lukwaminiwa lugiwa ukhupelela na voni ulya uYeesu ahinchile ikhelunga ukhola awanembivi. Une nelimbivi kholiho voni.
16 But for this very reason I was shown mercy, so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display His perfect patience as an example to those who would believe in Him for eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
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 eternal, immortal, and invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Numbaha uyalevovote umwisyo, uyosifya uyusovoneha u Nguluve mwene, wav wodwado nu wowakha sihu nchoni. Amee. (aiōn g165)
18 Timothy, my child, I entrust you with this command in keeping with the previous prophecies about you, so that by them you may fight the good fight,
Nikholoveha ululagelo ulukhuvolungolo khulyove Timotheo, vemwana vango. Nivomba ewa okhohomana na malago, agohamile khulyove uhuhuma huvutengolelo hulyove, ukhuta ukhusehe mvita ifinonu.
19 holding on to faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and thereby shipwrecked their faith.
Uvombe ovo ukhuta uve nolyedekho. Avanu avange vahangumile vabela ulyedeho.
20 Among them are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have handed over to Satan to be taught not to blaspheme.
Ndoloyevelile himeneyo nu alekizanda yoywa nepile utavango osetano afundesiwe asite uhokufuni.
