1 Thessalonians 2
1 Now you yourselves know, brothers, that our entrance to you did not happen without purpose.
lwakuva jumue mukagwile, vanyalukolo, kuti ulwisilo lwitu kulyumue nalukale vuvule.
2 Rather, in spite of having already suffered and been insulted in Philippi, as you know, we made bold in our God to speak to you the Gospel of God, in the face of strong opposition.
Mkagwile mutambula kuva muvwasio/muvutengulilo tulyapumuike na kukutuvomba kinyaoni kuva pilipo kula, ndavule mukagula. tulyale ni ngufu mwa Nguluve nambe mu mumuko nyinga.
3 Further, our exhortation does not spring from delusion or impurity, nor is it in deception,
Lwakuva uluvungu lwitu naluhumilanila nuvuvivi nambe muvunyali mugila.
4 but we speak precisely as those who have been approved by God to be entrusted with the Gospel, not so as to please men, but to please the God who evaluates our hearts.
Ulwene nambe vule twitikisivue nu Nguruve nakukwitikisivua ilivangili, sesene tujova. tujova, nakwekuti tukuvahovosia avanhu, looli/neke kukumwovosia uNguluve. umwene mwene ghwe juno ilolela inumbula situ.
5 Further, you well know that we never used words to flatter, or to disguise greed (God is witness),
ulwakuva natukatumile amasio gha vukedusi un'siki ghwoni, ndavule mkagula, kange kutumila amasio ghano nagheghene muvunoghelua, uNguluve ghwe saidi ghwitu.
6 or to seek glory from men (whether from you or from others)—as apostles of Christ we could have been ‘heavy’,
kange natukalondile uvwimike ku vanhu, nambe kuhuma kulyumue au kuwange. twale tuwesia kudaja kughanika ndavule/hene vasung'wa va Kilisite.
7 but we were gentle among you, like a nurse cherishing her own children.
pepano lino tulyale vapolele mu lyumue ndavule u mama finoikuvaghumbilia avana vake jujuo.
8 Yearning over you in this way, we were well pleased to share with you not only the Gospel of God but also our own selves, because you had become dear to us.
musila iji tulyale nulughano kulyumue. tulyale lwakuva mulivaghanike vitu.
9 Surely you remember, brothers, our toil and exertion, because working night and day, so as not to burden any of you, we proclaimed the Gospel of God to you.
ulwakuva vanyalukolo, mukumbuka imbombo ni taabu jitu. pakilo napamwisi tulyale tuvomba imbombo neke tuleke piva vakunue kwa ghwoghwoni. un'siki ughuo, tulyavavulanisie ilivangili lya Nguluve.
10 You are witnesses, and so is God, how devoutly and justly and blamelessly we behaved ourselves among you who believe;
umue mwemue masaidi, nu Nguluve, ghweghavwimike vya namna nyiki, kyang'ani, na kisila lupiko finotulyalutagha jusue pamaso ghinu mwevano mukumwitikila.
11 indeed, you know how we treated each one of you as a father does his own children, exhorting and comforting you,
vule vule mkagula muluki mwakila jumonga ghwinu, ndavule ubaba finoalivuo ku vana vaake finotulyavalasimisie na kukuvakangasia inumbula. tulyavahuvisie.
12 insisting that you conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the God who calls you into His own kingdom and glory.
kuwa muuluo tukumwongesia uNguluve kange kila n'siki.
13 Another reason we give thanks to God continually is that when you received from us the spoken Word of God, you welcomed it not as the word of men but, as it actually is, the Word of God, which is indeed operative in you who believe.
ulwakuva un'siki ghunomukupilile kuhuma kulyusue imhola ja Nguluve jinomukupile, na. mukupile kuti lisio lya vanhu, neke mukupile ndavule ilweli jilivuo, ilisio lya nguluve. lyelisio ili linolivomba imbombo ati jinu mwevano mukumwitikila.
14 For you, brothers, became imitators of God's congregations in Christ Jesus, the ones in Judea, in that you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen that they did from the Jews
Nekelelo umue, vanyalukolo, muvisaghe kwigha itembile sa Nguluve sinokwesile uvuyahudi mwa Kilisite Yesu. lwakuva najumue mukapumuike mu mbombo silasila kuhuma kuvanhu vinu, ndavule jilivuo kuhuma kuvayahudi.
15 (the ones who killed both the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, who have persecuted us, who do not please God and are hostile to everybody,
Nalyale vevayahudi vevano valyamudile u Yesu palikimo navavili. vevayahudi vano valyatudagile tuhume kunji. navikumunoghela uNguluve vevalugu ku vanhu voni.
16 trying to prevent us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they may be saved—so as to fill up the measure of their sins. They have received the full impact of the Wrath).
Nalytusighile natungajovaghe navanonavikumwitikila neke vapate uvuvangi. amahumilo ghake kwekuti vighendelela ni sambi savo. muvusililo ing'alasi jikuvisila.
17 Now we, brothers, having been bereaved of you for a short season (in presence, not in heart), made every effort to see your face, from intense longing.
Usue vanyalukolo tulyale tutengine numue kun'siki n'debe ghwa m'bili, neke sio kinumbula. tulyavombile mungufu situ nakuvunogheluo ulukome kukusivona isula sinu.
18 (We actually tried to come to you—I, Paul, time and again—but Satan thwarted us.)
lwakuva tukanighilue kukwisa kulyumue, une ne Peteli kulwakwasia, nulunge, neke usetano alyatusighile.
19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of glorying? Is it not precisely you, in the presence of our Lord Jesus at His coming?
lwakuva kukwima kwitu kyekinu kiki kumwande, lukelo au ingigha ja kujighinia pamaso gha mutwa ghwitu Yesu un'siki ghwa kwisa kwamwene? pe umue namuli kanono ndavule avange?
20 Indeed, you are our glory and our joy.
lwakuva umue mwemue vwimike nulukelo lwitu.
