< 1 Thessalonians 4 >

1 And furthermore we beseeche you, brethren, and exhort you in the Lord Iesus, that ye increase more and more, as ye haue receiued of vs, how ye ought to walke, and to please God.
Naguo ũhoro wa kũrigĩrĩria, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ-rĩ, nĩ atĩ nĩtwamũrutire ũhoro wa mũtũũrĩre, ũrĩa ũkenagia Ngai, na noguo mũtũũraga mwĩkaga. Rĩu tũkũmũũria na tũkamũringĩrĩria thĩinĩ wa Mwathani Jesũ atĩ mũkĩragĩrĩrie gwĩkaga o ũguo.
2 For ye knowe what commandements we gaue you by the Lord Iesus.
Nĩgũkorwo nĩmũũĩ maũndũ marĩa twamũtaarire namo, tũrĩ na ũhoti wa Mwathani Jesũ.
3 For this is the will of God euen your sanctification, and that ye should abstaine from fornication,
Tondũ rĩĩrĩ, ũndũ ũrĩa Ngai endete nĩ atĩ mũtuĩke andũ aamũre: atĩ mwĩtheemage ũmaraya;
4 That euery one of you should know, how to possesse his vessell in holines and honour,
na atĩ o ũmwe wanyu amenye gwatha mwĩrĩ wake mwene ũikarage ũrĩ mũtheru na akĩũtĩĩaga,
5 And not in the lust of concupiscence, euen as the Gentiles which know not God:
atarĩ na merirĩria ma mwĩrĩ ta andũ a ndũrĩrĩ arĩa matooĩ Ngai;
6 That no man oppresse or defraude his brother in any matter: for the Lord is auenger of all such thinges, as we also haue tolde you before time, and testified.
na atĩ ha ũhoro wa maũndũ macio, gũtigakorwo mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũngĩhĩtĩria mũrũ na mwarĩ wa ithe, kana amwĩke ũũru. Mwathani nĩakaherithia andũ nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mothe ta macio, o ta ũrĩa tũrĩkĩtie kũmwĩra na tũkamũkaania.
7 For God hath not called vs vnto vncleannesse, but vnto holinesse.
Tondũ Ngai ndatwĩtĩire maũndũ ma waganu, no aatwĩtire nĩguo tũtũũre mũtũũrĩre wa ũtheru.
8 Hee therefore that despiseth these thinges, despiseth not man, but God who hath euen giuen you his holy Spirit.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, mũndũ ũrĩa ũkũregana na ũrutani ũyũ ti mũndũ araregana nake no nĩ Ngai, ũrĩa ũmũheaga inyuĩ Roho wake Mũtheru.
9 But as touching brotherly loue, ye neede not that I write vnto you: for ye are taught of God to loue one another.
Na rĩu-rĩ, harĩ ũhoro wa kwendana na ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ-rĩ, tũtibataire kũmwandĩkĩra nĩ ũndũ inyuĩ ene nĩmũrutĩtwo kwendanaga nĩ Ngai.
10 Yea, and that thing verily yee doe vnto all the brethren, which are throughout all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more,
Na ti-itherũ, nĩmwendete ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ othe arĩa marĩ Makedonia guothe. No nĩtũkũmũringĩrĩria inyuĩ ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, atĩ mũkĩragĩrĩrie gwĩka ũguo makĩria.
11 And that ye studie to be quiet, and to meddle with your owne busines, and to worke with your owne handes, as we commanded you,
Atĩrĩrĩ, mwĩrirĩriei gũtũũra mũtũũrĩre wa ũhooreri, na mũhangʼagĩre o maũndũ marĩa mamũkoniĩ, na mũrutage wĩra na moko manyu, o ta ũrĩa twamwĩrire,
12 That yee may behaue your selues honestly towarde them that are without, and that nothing be lacking vnto you.
nĩgeetha mũtũũrĩre wanyu wa o mũthenya, ũtũme mũheagwo gĩtĩĩo nĩ andũ arĩa matarĩ a thiritũ yanyu, na nĩgeetha mũtigatuĩke mũrigo kũrĩ mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ.
13 I would not, brethren, haue you ignorant concerning them which are a sleepe, that ye sorow not euen as other which haue no hope.
No rĩrĩ, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, tũtikwenda mũikarage mũtooĩ ũhoro wa andũ arĩa makomete, kana mũigue kĩeha ta andũ arĩa angĩ matarĩ na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro.
14 For if we beleeue that Iesus is dead, and is risen, euen so them which sleepe in Iesus, will God bring with him.
Nĩtwĩtĩkĩtie atĩ Jesũ nĩakuire na akĩriũka, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩtwĩtĩkĩtie atĩ Ngai nĩakarehanĩria Jesũ hamwe na andũ arĩa makomete marĩ thĩinĩ wake.
15 For this say we vnto you by the worde of the Lord, that we which liue, and are remayning in the comming of the Lord, shall not preuent them which sleepe.
Kũringana na kiugo kĩa Mwathani we mwene, tũkũmwĩra atĩ ithuĩ arĩa tũrĩ muoyo, arĩa tũtigĩtwo nginya rĩrĩa agacooka tũtigatongoria arĩa marĩkĩtie gũkoma.
16 For the Lord himselfe shall descende from heauen with a shoute, and with the voyce of the Archangel, and with the trumpet of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Thuutha wa ũguo, ithuĩ arĩa tũgaakorwo tũrĩ muoyo na tũtigaire-rĩ, nĩtũkoyanĩrio hamwe nao tũtwarwo matu-inĩ nĩguo tũgacemanie na Mwathani rĩera-inĩ. Na nĩ ũndũ ũcio tũgaatũũrania na Mwathani nginya tene.
17 Then shall we which liue and remaine, be caught vp with them also in the clouds, to meete the Lord in the ayre: and so shall we euer be with the Lord.
18 Wherefore, comfort your selues one another with these wordes.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ũmanagĩrĩriai mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ na ciugo icio.
