Romans 14
1 Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgment on his opinions.
Mumposhelanje Nkilishitu akaakulupalila ukoto, nnaiibhukanje nkutaukangana ga ng'aniyo yakwe.
2 For one person has faith to eat all things, while another, who is weak, eats only vegetables.
Mundu juna kwa ngulupai jakwe, analya indu yowe, na juna kwa ngulupai jakwe jikanabhe komala, analya lipondape.
3 The one who eats everything must not belittle the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted him.
Mundu alya indu yowe anannyegaye mundu akalya indu yowe, wala jwene akaapinga kulya shindu shina, ananng'ukumule alya indu yowe, pabha a Nnungu bhannjitishiye.
4 Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.
Ugwe gani ukunng'ukumula ntumishi juka mundu juna? Ajimaga eu agwaga, genego ga Bhakulungwa bhakwe. Numbe shajime, pabha Bhakulungwa shibhannjimishe.
5 One person regards a certain day above the others, while someone else considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.
Mundu juna paganishiya kuti, lipali lyubha lya mmbone lya tindibhalila punda mobha gana, na juna paganishiya kuti, mobha gowe ganalingana. Bhai kila mundu akagule lunda lwakwe.
6 He who observes a special day does so to the Lord; he who eats does so to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he who abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God.
Aganishiya kuti lyubha lina lya mmbone kaje, anatenda nneyo kwa ligongo lya kwaakuya Bhakulungwa, na jwene alya kila shalya, analya kwa kwaakuya Bhakulungwa, pabha anakwaatendela eja a Nnungu. Na jwalakwe akalya shalya shina anatenda nneyo kwa ligongo lya kwaakuya Bhakulungwa, na jwalakwe anakwaatendela eja a Nnungu.
7 For none of us lives to himself alone, and none of us dies to himself alone.
Pabha jwakwa mundu munkumbi gwetu alama kwa pinga nnyene, wala jwakwa awa kwapinga nnyene.
8 If we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.
Monaga tunalama, tulama kwa ligongo lya Bhakulungwa, eu tuwaga, tunawa kwa ligongo lya Bhakulungwa. Bhai, monaga tulamaga eu tuwaga, uwe tubhabho Bhakulungwa.
9 For this reason Christ died and returned to life, that He might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.
Kwa lyene ligongoli, a Kilishitu bhashinkuwa na yuka, nkupinga bhabhe Bhakulungwa bha bhakotonji na bha bhawilenje.
10 Why, then, do you judge your brother? Or why do you belittle your brother? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat.
Kwa nndi mmwe nnakwaukumula apwenu? Eu numbe mmwe kwa nndi nnakwanyegaya apwenu? Pabha uwe tubhowe shitujime mmujo ja shitengu sha ukumu sha a Nnungu.
11 It is written: “As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before Me; every tongue will confess to God.”
Pabha Mmajandiko Bhakulungwa bhakuti, “Malinga shingulama shino, bhakuti Bhakulungwa, kila mundu shandindibhalile ulungolungo, na kila mundu shakunde kuti nne ni a Nnungu.”
12 So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.
Kwa nneyo, kila mundu munkumbi gwetu, shailugule nnyene kwa a Nnungu.
13 Therefore let us stop judging one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother’s way.
Bhai tunaukumulane, ikabhe tutumbilile kuleka indu ya kunnebhya mmpwetu.
14 I am convinced and fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean.
Kwa lundana kwangu na Bhakulungwa a Yeshu, kunandenda nimumanye kuti, shakwa shalya shili sha nyata tandubhilepe, ikabheje mundu ashibhonaga shalya shina kuti sha nyata, bhai, kuka jwenejo shene shalyasho sha nyata.
15 If your brother is distressed by what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother, for whom Christ died.
Monaga shimummulaye mmpwenu kuinjika kwa ligongo lya shalya shinkulya, bhai, nshileka kupingana. Shalya shenu shinabhe shiumilo sha kunng'obhya mundu, jubhanng'wilile a Kilishitu.
16 Do not allow what you consider good, then, to be spoken of as evil.
Bhai nnakundanje shindu shinkushibhonanga sha mmbone shinyegaywe.
17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Kulya na papila nngabha shindu Muupalume gwa a Nnungu, ikabhe ga aki na ulele na angalala kutupegwa naka Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo ni shipinjikwa muupalume gwa a Nnungu.
18 For whoever serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men.
Pabha akwaatumishila a Kilishitu shana nneyo, anakwaanonyeya a Nnungu na anakundwa na bhandunji.
19 So then, let us pursue what leads to peace and to mutual edification.
Bhai ibhaga nneyo, tukagulile indu ipeleshela ulele na ya tagana ntima.
20 Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a man to let his eating be a stumbling block.
Bhai nnaangabhanye ngulupai jibhabhishile a Nnungu kuka mundu ga shalya. Ikabheje nngabha ya mmbone, mundu jojowe kulya shalya shikuntenda mundu nnjakwe alebhe alyaga shene shalyasho.
21 It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything to cause your brother to stumble.
Mbaya leka kulya nnyama wala ng'wa divai eu tenda shindu shoshowe, sha kunnebhya mpwenu.
22 Keep your belief about such matters between yourself and God. Blessed is the one who does not condemn himself by what he approves.
Bhai, shoshowe shinkukulupalila kwa a Nnungu bhenu, nntende shenesho. Mbaya jwene mundu akakwiukumula nnyene, kwa shindu shakushibhona kuti sha aki.
23 But the one who has doubts is condemned if he eats, because his eating is not from faith; and everything that is not from faith is sin.
Ikabheje mundu akola lipamba, alyaga shalya akuno aliganishiya kuti shangali sha mmbone, anatenda shambi pabha jwangalya kwa kulupalila ngulupai jakwe. Na shindu shoshowe shitendeka gwangali ngulupai, ni yambi.
