1 Timothy 1
1 This letter comes from Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus appointed by the authority of God our Savior and Christ Jesus, who is our hope.
U Paulo, Utumwa wa Yesu Kristi, alengane ne ndajizyo zya Ngolobhe watokoye ate O Yesu Kristi wali jasili wetu,
2 I'm sending it to you Timothy. You are my true son because of your trust in God. May you have grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
hwa Timotheo omwana wane welyoli hulweteshelo lwa lufuma hwa Ngolobhe o Baba no Kristi oYesu obhwa wetu.
3 When I was on my way to Macedonia I asked you to stay behind in Ephesus, so that you could speak with those who teach false ideas and insist that they stop.
Nashi sanabhozyezye nanasogolaga abhale hu Makedonia, osagala hu Efeso ili aje owezye abhabhozye abhantu aje waganjefundizye enongwa ezyenje.
4 They shouldn't concern themselves with legends and never-ending obsessions about ancestry. Such ideas only lead to pointless debates, instead of understanding God as we trust in him.
Nantele bhaganje tejezye enongwa zye vilale ne ozoza zye shikholo zya sezili no mwisho. Ezyo zileta amabisanyo ashile awavwe ahwengwa Ngolobhe gwe lweteshelo.
5 The reason why I insist on this is so we may have love that comes from a pure heart, from a clear conscience and sincere trust in God.
Ilengo lye ndajizyo ezyo luganano lwalufuma humoyo aminza humwoyo ogwinza na hulweteshelo lwe lyoli.
6 Some have deviated from these things, and have ended up talking nonsense.
Abhantu wamo wakosile shashahanziwaga bhazileshile endijizyo ezi bhagulishiye enongwa zyabho endema ndema.
7 They have ambitions to be teachers of the law, but they have no idea what they're talking about or what they're so boldly announcing!
Bhawanza aje bhabhanje waalimu bhe ndajizyo, lelo sebhawelewa habhayanga au habhasimisizya.
8 Now we recognize that the law is good if people use it properly.
ila tihwelewa aje endajizyo nyinza hwa muntu waizufumila sawasawa.
9 We also know that law isn't laid down for those who do what is good and right, but for those who are rebellious and ignore the law. It applies to people who have no use for God, who are sinful, who treat nothing as holy and are completely irreligious. It's for those who kill fathers and mothers, for murderers,
Tehwelewa aje, endajizyo sezya bhehwelwe kwa ajili ya muntu we lyoli ila hwa bhala bhabhana na nkanye endajizyo na bhe mbibhi, abhantu bhasebhaputi abhe mbibhi, nabhasebhali no Ngolobhe nabhe mbibhi. Etungwilwe hwebho bhabhahudu ababa na maye bhabho, hwebho agoji,
10 for those who are sexually immoral, homosexuals, kidnappers, liars, false witnesses—and anything else that's opposed to good teachings
kwa ajili yamalaya nebho awantu azinzi, nebho bhabhateka awantu nabhabhombe watumwa, sebabu yilenka, na shahidi bhilenka, na bhonti na bhonti bhabhali shingunga ne nongwa yenpiana.
11 as determined by the wonderful good news of our blessed God which he entrusted to me.
Enongwa ezi zifumilana izu lye umwamu wa Ngolobhe welusayo na ambayo hweyo bhaniminile.
12 I'm just so grateful to Christ Jesus our Lord for the strength he's given me, and that he considered me trustworthy, appointing me to work for him.
Ehusalifya o Yesu Kristi Ogosi wetu. Ampiye enguvu abazizye ane aje endi mwaminifu, na wambeha pambombo yanewe.
13 Even though I used to insult God, and persecuted and abused God's people, God showed me mercy because of my ignorance and unbelief.
Nali muntu wemasola, watese na we wibho. Lakini ansajiye afuatanaje na bhombile bila amanye siyo senaputaga.
14 Our Lord in his grace filled me to overflowing with trust and love that comes from Christ Jesus.
Eneema ya Ngolobhe wetu imemile lwetweshelo no lwomvwano wawuli hwa Kristi oYesu.
15 You can trust this saying that everyone should accept: “Christ Jesus came to this world to save sinners,” and I'm the worst of them.
Enongwa ezi zya hwetehwe na ahwanziwa aposhelewe nabhantu whonti, aje Okristi oYesu ahenzele munsi ahwokole bhe mbibhi. Ane endi bhibhi ashile wonti.
16 For this reason I was shown mercy—since I'm the worst sinner, Jesus Christ could demonstrate his infinite patience as an example to those who choose to trust in him and gain eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Lakini ane napewilwe ehuluma aje mhati yane ane, awande gonti, oKristi oYesu awonesezye ou vumilivu wonti. Abhombile esho nanshi omfano gwa wonti bhabhai humweteshela omwene ashilile owomi wewilawila. (aiōnios g166)
17 Honor and glory forever and ever to the eternal King, the immortal, invisible, and only God! Amen. (aiōn g165)
Na esalezi omwene wasagali no umwisho, wasaga afwa, wasabhoneha, Ongolobhe mwene, ebhe heshima no umwamu wewilawila. Amina. (aiōn g165)
18 These are the instructions I want to give to you, Timothy, my son, following the prophecies that brought you this far, so you can fight the good fight!
Eweha endajizyo eli witazi lyaho Timotheo, mwana wane. Ewomba eshi alengane no kuwaa wawahepere epa kwanza elengane nawe aje obhe nawe muvitu evinza.
19 Keep on trusting God and make sure you have a clear conscience. Some have refused to do this and have shipwrecked their trust in God.
Obhombe esho ili nkobhe no lweteshelo no mwoyo ogwinza bhamo bhamo wakhene ega walutezya ulweteshero.
20 Hymenaeus and Alexander are such people, and I have “handed them over to Satan” to teach them not to misrepresent God.
Nashi shila ohemenayo no o Alekizanda ambao upiye o setano aje awafundizye bhaswilije.
