1 Thessalonians 3
1 Wherefore, being no longer able to refrain ourselves, we thought good to be left alone in Athens,
Kwa eyu, patayele tibhuesya lepi kuvumilila zaidi, lafikilili kuwa yayele syana kubakila khola Athene tete tayhoto.
2 and sent Timotheus, our brother and fellow-workman under God in the glad tidings of Christ, to confirm you and encourage [you] concerning your faith,
Twamtumili Timotheo ndhongo bhitu na n'tumishi wa K'yara ku injili ya Kristu, kubhaimalisha ni kabhafaliji kuhusiana ni imani ya yhomo.
3 that no one might be moved by these afflictions. (For yourselves know that we are set for this;
Twaketilli agha ili kusudi akotokuya yuoayhola wa kuteteleka kup'etela mateso agha, kwa ndabha mwayhomo mmanyili kuwa tumalili teulibhwa kwajia ya ele.
4 for also, when we were with you, we told you beforehand we are about to be in tribulation, even as also it came to pass, and ye know.)
Kwa kueli, muda watayele pamonga ni namu, twalondili kubhajobhela ya kuwa twayele papipi kukabha mateso, na agha ghahomili kama kammanyili.
5 For this reason I also, no longer able to refrain myself, sent to know your faith, lest perhaps the tempter had tempted you and our labour should be come to nothing.
Kwa ndabha eye, paniyele ni bhuesya lepi kuvumilila kabhele natumili kusudi ni kabhaa kumanya juu ya imani ya yhomo. Bhuenda mjalibu ayele abha jalibu, ni mbhombho yhitu yibhuesya kuya bure.
6 But Timotheus having just come to us from you, and brought to us the glad tidings of your faith and love, and that ye have always good remembrance of us, desiring much to see us, even as we also you;
Lakini Timotheo ahidili kwa tete kuhomela kwa muenga na atuletili malobhi mema juu ya imani ni upendo bhuinu. Atujobhili ya ndabha mwitamani kutubhona na kama katuyete tee titamani kubhabhona muenga.
7 for this reason we have been comforted in you, brethren, in all our distress and tribulation, through your faith,
Kwa ndabha eye, ndongo twafalijiki sana ni muenga kwa ndabha ya imani ya yhomo, ki tabu ni mateso ghitu ghoa.
8 because now we live if ye stand firm in [the] Lord.
Kwa henu tiishi, kama mkayemai ngangali kwa Bwana.
9 For what thanksgiving can we render to God for you, for all the joy wherewith we rejoice on account of you before our God,
Kwani shukrani seleku tumpelai K'yara kwajia yhoto, kwa furaha syoa twatuje nasu palongolo pa K'yara juu ya yhoto?
10 night and day beseeching exceedingly to the end that we may see your face, and perfect what is lacking in your faith?
Twisoma sana pakilu ni pamusi ili tubhwesyai kujibhona pamiu pa yhoto ni kubhayongesela kakipongoka mu imani ya yhomo.
11 But our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you.
K'yara wa yhoto na ni Dadi muene, ni Bwana was yhoto Yesu atuyongeselai njela ya yhoto ya kufika kwa yhomo.
12 But you, may the Lord make to exceed and abound in love toward one another, and toward all, even as we also towards you,
Ni Bwana afwanyai muyongesekai ni kuzidi kup'etela lipendo, mkagananai ni kubhagana bhanu bhoa, Kama katukabha ketela muenga.
13 in order to the confirming of your hearts unblamable in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.
Na afwanyai naa ili aimalishai miteema yhinu iyelai bila lawama mu utakatifu palongolo pa K'yara wa yhoto na ni Dadi wa yhoto ku ujio wa Bwana Yesu pamonga ni bhatakatifu bhake bhoa.
