< 1 Timothy 5 >

1 Don't rebuke a man who is older than you. Instead, encourage him as if he were your father. Treat younger men as brothers,
Ugajehudamira ulume umzee. Bali upele umwoyo neshe uyise waho. Ubhapele umwoyo asahala abheshilume neshe aje bhaholo bhaho.
2 older women as mothers, younger women as sisters, with the highest standards of decency.
Upele umwoyo abhashe ashikolo kama neshe anyine bhaho na abhashe alenduneshe ayilombo bhaho huhuwinza wonti.
3 Help widows who don't have a family.
Uubhaheshimu afwele bhala bhabhali bhafwele lyoli lyoli.
4 For the Christian responsibility of a widow's children or grandchildren is to do their duty for their own family, and repay their parents by helping them out. This is what pleases God.
Lelo nkeshele ufwele anabhana au namama ubhaleshe bhahwifunza abhonesye eheshima hwabhantu bha mnyumba yao bhebho uleshe bhabhasaidile aise bhabho. Aminza afwanaje ene nyinza hwitagalila elya Ngolobhe.
5 Now a real widow, having no family, alone and without support, puts her hope in God and prays for help night and day.
Lelo ufwele uwelyoli lyoli yayola yalehwilwe mwene wope abheshele na pambo male hwa Ngolobhe. Esiku zwonti aputa nalabhe esala usiku na pasanya.
6 But a widow who concentrates on pleasing herself is already dead, even though she's still physically alive.
Hata esho ufwele ula yakhala netuma afwiye lwapo mwomi.
7 Give people these instructions so that they will be above criticism.
Na ulombelele ege amambo ili kwamba bhagajebhe bhahwiune.
8 But those who don't look after their relatives, especially their own family, have denied their beliefs, and are worse than those who don't believe.
Eshi nkashile umuntu sabhalela ahoro bhakwe, tee bhala bhabhalimwao alaniwe na akhene ulyeteho na bhibhi ashile yasalinolyeteo.
9 Only widows over sixty who have been faithful to their husbands should be put on the list.
Basi ushe gasimbisiweje abhe fwele abhaje namaha gasegaposhe sitini, abhanje fwele yali nolume umo.
10 The widow should have a reputation for doing good. Did she bring up children properly? Has she been hospitable? Has she washed the feet of church members? Has she helped those who were in trouble? Has she really tried to do good in every way?
Lazima abhanje amanyisye humatendo aminza abhanje abhalelile abhana bhakwe abhanje anepya hwanjenyi au abhanje abhasaidi aputi bhamwao, au ahwifumizwe humbombo yeyonti enyeza.
11 Don't take on widows who are younger, because when their physical desires make them want to re-marry they abandon their dedication to Christ.
Lelo hwabhala afwele alendu ukhane abhabheshe hudadi yefwele kwasababu nkabhakhatwe ne taama agebele bhahwanza ahwengwe, hwidala eli bhahwinjila matama agebele zidi ya Kristi bhahwanza ahwengwe.
12 In this they are guilty of breaking their previous commitment.
Hwidala eli bhahwinjila mhatia bhabudulanya hwifumye hwabho uhwelyoli.
13 They also get used to a lazy life, just visiting each other in their homes. Not only lazy, but they gossip and meddle, talking about things they shouldn't.
Nantele bhahwiyinjizwa humazowea. Eye wolo abhahale bhazwogola khaya kwa khaya siyo aje bholo tu, bala antele bhabha bhasenkenyaji bhabhuhwinjilile abhale abhahale bhayanga amambo gasehwanziwa agayanje.
14 So my best advice is that younger widows marry and have children and take care of the home. That way there's no opportunity for criticism from the Enemy.
Eshi ane ehwanza abhashe alendu bhengwaje bhupapaje abhana, bhasimamilaje enyumba zwao ili bhagaje hupele ubhibhi enafasi ya tilonje kwa abhombe embibhi.
15 However, some have already gone the way of Satan.
Kwa sababu bhamo bhao bhagulusi usetano.
16 Any Christian woman who has widows in the family should help them, so that the church is not burdened with the responsibility, and can help those widows who are truly in need.
Nkashile ushe yayonti uwelyeteho ana fwele, basi awavwe ili eshibhanza shigaje alemelye ili libhasailadiaje bhala bhabahli bhafwele lyolilyoli.
17 Elders who direct the church well should be seen as doubly valuable, particularly those who work in speaking the Word and in teaching.
Basi bhala agosi bhalongozwa shinza mubhaheshimu aje bhahwaziwa abaheshimu marahahinji hasa bhala bhabha hwishuguliswa amwanzywe izu elya Ngolobhe.
18 As Scripture says, “Don't muzzle the ox when it's threshing out the grain.” Also, “The worker deserves to be paid.”
Afwatanaje amasimbilo gayanga ugaje hufunje eng'ombe elo mu nalya eshalye ubhomba mbombo ahwanziwo ushala wakwe.”
19 Don't entertain any accusation against an elder unless two or three witnesses support it.
Ugaje aposhe mashitaka hwagosi sipokua bhahweli ashahidi bhabhele au bhadatu.
20 Censure those who sin in front of everyone as a warning to others as well.
Ehulajizwa ubha nkhane hwitagalilo elyebhantu wonti ili abhanje bhasageye labda bhagayeta.
21 Before God and Christ Jesus, and the holy angels, I instruct you to follow these instructions without bias. Don't do anything from an attitude of favoritism.
Ehulujizwa kwa thati hwetagalila lya Ngolobhe, na hwitagalila ya Kristi uYesu, na bha malaika aleule aje uzitunze endajizwo ega bila asalulanye yoyonti na aije uganje abhombe ejambo lyolyonti apendele.
22 Don't be in a hurry to lay hands on anyone; and don't get involved in the sins of others. Keep yourself pure.
Ugaje hubheshele umuntu yoyonti okhono nanali ugaje ashiliki ibibhi zwa muntu uwe je uhwanziwa ahwilinde wewe mwenyewe ubhaje mwinza.
23 Don't just drink water, but use a little bit of wine because of your bad stomach—you're sick so often!
Sehwanziwa amwile amenzegene. Badala yakwe, unywelaje mvinyo hashe kwajili yevyanda nempongo yaho ye mara kwa mara.
24 The sins of some people are really obvious, and they are clearly guilty, but the sins of others are not seen until later.
Ibibhi baadhi ezwa bhantu zibhoneha wene zibhatagalile hundongo lelo baadhi ya bibhi zwa bhantu bhamo zibhafwata.
25 Similarly some good works are obvious, and even those that are hidden won't be for long.
Hwisalo shesho baadhi ya yembombo enyinza zihwelewe hwa pawelele lelo hata zimo sezwaifisiha.
