1 Thessalonians 3
1 Wherefore since we could no longer forbare, wee thought it good to remaine at Athens alone,
Nitu ki, a tie ta ya ndu ki nji'u, kina si ya ndi abi toh bi don ta zi ni Athens kpa mbu.
2 And haue sent Timotheus our brother and minister of God, and our labour felow in the Gospel of Christ, to stablish you, and to comfort you touching your faith,
Ki ton Timoti, vayi mbu ni ikpan tie ndu mbu ni Irji ni tre Kristi, dun ki no yi gbemgble ndi ka suron mbi kusi nitu yo shishi mbi.
3 That no man should be moued with these afflictions: for ye your selues knowe, that we are appointed thereunto.
Ki tie ki don ko ri mbi duna klu sissri nitu iya wa ahe'a na. U biyi ni ki-mbi bi toh ndi nitu kii ba chu ta no ta ndi ki.
4 For verily when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulations, euen as it came to passe, and ye knowe it.
Njanji, wa kina he yayi'a, ki bla hla ni yiwu ni gbagbla ndi ki he ni gbugbu ya ni ko shishi, u ahe naki, nawa bi to'a.
5 Euen for this cause, when I could no longer forbeare, I sent him that I might knowe of your faith, lest the tempter had tempted you in any sort, and that our labour had bene in vaine.
Nitu naki, u wa ime me a tie me ya dun mi kri, mi ton ndi don dun mi ton nitu yo suron mbi. U ani ya he ndi memme'a ye gyru yi nda du indu mbu a duna tie-tu na.
6 But now lately when Timotheus came from you vnto vs, and brought vs good tidings of your faith and loue, and that ye haue good remembrance of vs alwayes, desiring to see vs, as we also do you,
U Timoti ye nita rji niyi nda njiye nitawu itre ndindi ma wa bi ka suron mbi yo ni Irji. A hla ni tawu ndi chachu bi rhi mre mbu bi, ndi bi son bi toh ta nawa kita ngame ki yo shi si ya nkon u toh yi.
7 Therefore, brethren, we had consolation in you, in all our affliction and necessitie through your faith.
Nitu kii, mri vayi, biyi mba bi kpa suron mbu si nitu wa bi nji Irji gbamgba me, ni mi-ya wa kisi tie.
8 For nowe are wee aliue, if ye stand fast in the Lord.
Ni zizan ki kuson, toh bi kri gbamgba ni Irji.
9 For what thankes can wee recompense to God againe for you, for all the ioy wherewith we reioyce for your sakes before our God,
Ahi nge ni he ngiri mbu nitu mbi, u wawu si-suron mbu ni shishi Irji wa ki he niwu nitu mbi'a?
10 Night and day, praying exceedingly that wee might see your face, and might accomplish that which is lacking in your faith?
Ni-chu mba ni-rji ki vuh bre gbamgba me ndu ki toh shishi mbi ndi zo yi ni wirji wa bi kunyre ni nkoh Irji.
11 Nowe God himselfe, euen our Father, and our Lord Iesus Christ, guide our iourney vnto you,
Ki bre ndi Irji ni Titi mbu ni Lima, mba Bachi mbu Yesu dun tsro ta nkon ye ni yi.
12 And the Lord increase you, and make you abound in loue one toward another, and towarde all men, euen as we doe toward you:
Ki bre dun Irji du no yi gbemgble ni suron u son kpa mbi ndi son wawu ndji, na wa kita ngame ki tie ni yi.
13 To make your hearts stable and vnblameable in holines before God euen our Father, at the comming of our Lord Iesus Christ with all his Saints.
Ibre mbu hi dun Irji no suron mbi gbemgble u tie ndindi nda hama ni lla tre ni shishi Irji, Iti mbu, ni ye u Bachi mbu Yesu ni biwa ba huu bi.
