Romans 12
1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the compassions of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, [which is] your intelligent service.
Kwayele, achalongo achinjangu, pakuŵa Akunnungu annosisye chanasa chao, ngunchondelela ntyosye iilu yenu mpela mbopesi jejumi ni jeswela ni jajikwanonyelesya Akunnungu. Lyele lili litala lya usyene lya kwapopelela Akunnungu.
2 And be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of [your] mind, that ye may prove what [is] the good and acceptable and perfect will of God. (aiōn g165)
Nkansyasya indu ya pachilambo pano nambo Akunnungu ajigalausye miningwa jenu kuti mmanyilile unonyelo wa Akunnungu. Nipele chinkombole kulimanyilila lisosa lya Akunnungu lyalili lyambone ni yakuti pakusaka ŵanyamwe mme. (aiōn g165)
3 For I say, through the grace which has been given to me, to every one that is among you, not to have high thoughts above what he should think; but to think so as to be wise, as God has dealt to each a measure of faith.
Pakuŵa kwa umbone waambele Akunnungu, ngunsalila ŵanyamwe wose, mundu akasaliganichisya kuti ali jwankulu kupunda yaikuti kwaŵajila. Nambo mmeje ŵa lunda pankuganisya, ni kulilamula mwachinsye malinga ni chikulupi chimpegwile ni Akunnungu.
4 For, as in one body we have many members, but all the members have not the same office;
Mu chiilu chimo mwana iŵalo yejinji, ni kila chiŵalo chikupanganya masengo gakwe.
5 thus we, [being] many, are one body in Christ, and each one members one of the other.
Uweji ŵatuli ŵajinji tuli chiilu chimo mu kulumbikana ni Kilisito, noweji wose tulumbikenywe jumo kwa jwine nti iŵalo ya kupisyangana ya pachiilu.
6 But having different gifts, according to the grace which has been given to us, whether [it be] prophecy, [let us prophesy] according to the proportion of faith;
Nipele, pakuŵa tuli ni mitulilo jakupisyangana, malinga ni ntuuka watupele Akunnungu. Jwapegwilwe ntulilo wa kuŵecheta utenga kutyochela kwa Akunnungu, aŵechete malinga ni chikulupi chakwe.
7 or service, [let us occupy ourselves] in service; or he that teaches, in teaching;
Iŵaga mundu apegwilwe ntulilo wa kutumichila, nneche atumichile. Jwapegwilwe ntulilo wa kwiganya, nneche ajiganye.
8 or he that exhorts, in exhortation; he that gives, in simplicity; he that leads, with diligence; he that shews mercy, with cheerfulness.
Jwapegwilwe ntulilo wa kutusya ntima, atendeje yeleyo. Ni jwapegwilwe ntulilo wa kutyosya kwa ŵane, atyosye kwa lulele. Jwakwimilila, ajimilile kwa kuchalila ni jwa chanasa, atendekanye yeleyo kwa kusangalala.
9 Let love be unfeigned; abhorring evil; cleaving to good:
Unonyelo wenu uŵe wangali ulamba. Nchichime changalumbana chilichose, mnyambatilane ni yambone.
10 as to brotherly love, kindly affectioned towards one another: as to honour, each taking the lead in paying it to the other:
Nnonyelane jwine ni jwine mpela achalongo ni kuchimbichisyana jwine ni jwine.
11 as to diligent zealousness, not slothful; in spirit fervent; serving the Lord.
Npanganye masengo kwa kuchalila, nkaŵa ŵa ulesi. Mwatumichile Ambuje, kwa ntima wenu wose.
12 As regards hope, rejoicing: as regards tribulation, enduring: as regards prayer, persevering:
Nsengwanje nli ni chilolelo. Mpililile mu kulagaswa, ni kupopela katema kose.
13 distributing to the necessities of the saints; given to hospitality.
Mwakamuchisye ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu mu yaikwasoŵa yao ni kwapochela achalendo kwa unonyelo.
14 Bless them that persecute you; bless, and curse not.
Mwape upile ŵakunnagasya, mwape upile ngasimwalwesya.
15 Rejoice with those that rejoice, weep with those that weep.
Nsengwanje pamo ni ŵakusengwa, nlile pamo ni ŵakulila.
16 Have the same respect one for another, not minding high things, but going along with the lowly: be not wise in your own eyes:
Ntame yambone jwine ni jwine. Kasinlifuna nambo nkunde kutama kwa kulitulusya. Kasinliganichisya kuti nkwete lunda nnope.
17 recompensing to no one evil for evil: providing things honest before all men:
Ngasimwauchisya yangalumbana mundu jwampanganyichisye yangalumbana. Mpanganye yambone kwa ŵandu wose.
18 if possible, as far as depends on you, living in peace with all men;
Yaikuti pakukomboleka kukwenu nchalile kutama mu chitendewele ni ŵandu wose.
19 not avenging yourselves, beloved, but give place to wrath; for it is written, Vengeance [belongs] to me, I will recompense, saith the Lord.
Achalongo achinjangu, kasimmuchisyana yangalumbana jwine ni jwine, nambo mwalechele Akunnungu atende chindu cho kwa lutumbilo lwakwe, pakuŵa ilembekwe mu Malembelo ga Akunnungu, Ambuje akuti, “Kuuchisya chisasi kuli kukwangu, uneji chimuchisye.”
20 If therefore thine enemy should hunger, feed him; if he should thirst, give him drink; for, so doing, thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head.
Mpela Malembo ga Akunnungu yagakuti, “Jwammagongo jwenu jakolaga sala mwape chakulya ni jankamulaga njota mwape meesi ang'weje. Pakuŵa kwakutenda yeleyo chimwatende akole soni jajikulungwa nti mwaŵichile makala ga mooto pantwe pakwe.”
21 Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
Nkakunda ungalumbana umpunde, nambo nkaupunde ungalumbana kwa kuitendekanya yambone.
