1 Thessalonians 5
1 Bvt of the times and seasons, brethren, yee haue no neede that I write vnto you.
Nambo achalongo achinjangu, ngapagwa ligongo lya kunnembela ngani jankati saa ni ndema pachiikopochele yeleyo.
2 For ye your selues knowe perfectly, that the day of the Lord shall come, euen as a thiefe in the night.
Pakuŵa mwachinsyene nkumanyilila kuti lyuŵa lya kuuja Ambuje likwika chisisimuchile mpela jwawiyi yakuti pakwika chilo.
3 For when they shall say, Peace, and safetie, then shall come vpon them sudden destruction, as the trauaile vpon a woman with childe, and they shall not escape,
Ŵandu pachaŵechete, “Indu yose itulele ni kwana chitendewele,” papopo wonasi ukwaichilila mpela chilungusi cha kuligopola chachikunsimana jwankongwe jwakwete chitumbo, namose ŵandu wose ngaakombola kuŵambala.
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkenes, that that day shall come on you, as it were a thiefe.
Nambo ŵanyamwe, achalongo achinjangu nganimma mchipi, namose lyuŵa lyo linnyichilile chisisimuchile mpela yakuti pakwika jwawiyi.
5 Yee are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, neither of darkenesse.
Ŵanyamwe wose ndi ŵandu ŵankutamanga mu lilanguka, ni ŵandu ŵa muusi. Uweji nganituŵa ŵandu ŵa chilo atamuno ŵa chipi.
6 Therefore let vs not sleepe as do other, but let vs watch and be sober.
Nipele tukagona mpela ŵane wo, nambo tuchesye ni kulilongosya twachinsyene.
7 For they that sleepe, sleepe in the night, and they that be drunken, are drunken in the night.
Pakuŵa ŵandu ŵakugona ŵala, akugona chilo ni ŵandu ŵakukolelwa, akukolelwa chilo.
8 But let vs which are of the day, be sober, putting on the brest plate of faith and loue, and of the hope of saluation for an helmet.
Nambo uwe tuli ŵandu ŵa muusi, tukusachilwa kulilongosya twachinsyene. Tukusachilwa kukamulangana ni chikulupi ni unonyelo mpela chakuwala cha chisyano cha kulichinga pantima, ni chilolelo chetu cha ukulupusyo nti chisoti cha chisyano chakulichinga mu ntwe.
9 For God hath not appointed vs vnto wrath, but to obtaine saluation by the meanes of our Lord Iesus Christ,
Pakuŵa Akunnungu nganatuŵika tujonasiche kwa lutumbilo lwao, nambo kuti tukulupuswe kwa litala lya Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito,
10 Which died for vs, that whether we wake or sleepe, we should liue together with him.
juŵawile kwa ligongo lyetu kuti namose twaŵaga ŵajumi pane tujasiche tukombole kutama nawo pachauje.
11 Wherefore exhort one another, and edifie one another, euen as ye doe.
Nipele ntusyane ntima jwine ni jwine ni kulimbisyana jwine ni jwine mpela inkutenda sambano.
12 Nowe we beseeche you, brethren, that ye acknowledge them, which labour among you, and are ouer you in the Lord, and admonish you,
Achalongo achinjetu, tukunchondelela, mwachimbichisye ŵelewo ŵakupanganya masengo pasikati jenu ni ŵakunnongosya ni ŵakunjiganya mu utame wa kunkulupilila Kilisito.
13 That yee haue them in singular loue for their workes sake. Bee at peace among your selues.
Mwachimbichisye nnope ni kwanonyela kwa liwamba lya masengo gaakupanganya. Ntameje mu chitendewele pasikati jenu.
14 We desire you, brethren, admonish them that are out of order: comfort ye feeble minded: beare with the weake: be pacient toward all men.
Achalongo achinjetu, tukunchondelela, mwajamuche ŵandu ŵaali ni ulesi, mwakamulisye ntima ŵaali ni lipamba, mwakamuchisye ŵakulepetala, mwapililile ŵandu wose.
15 See that none recompense euil for euil vnto any man: but euer follow that which is good, both toward your selues, and toward all men.
Nlilolechesye mwachinsyene kuti akasauchisya mundu chakusakala ku chakusakala, nambo moŵa gose ntendelane yaili yambone kwa jwine ni jwine ni kwa ŵandu wose.
16 Reioyce euermore.
Nsangalale moŵa gose,
17 Pray continually.
mwapopelele Akunnungu pangapela,
18 In all thinges giue thankes: for this is the will of God in Christ Iesus toward you.
mwatogolele Akunnungu mu yose yaikutyochela pakuŵa yeleyo ni yakuti pakusaka Akunnungu kukwenu ŵanlumbikene ni Che Yesu Kilisito.
19 Quench not the Spirit.
Nkausima mooto wa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu,
20 Despise not prophecying.
nkaupwanya utenga waukutyochela kwa Akunnungu.
21 Try all things, and keepe that which is good.
Nsosesose yose ni kukamulisya chachili chambone,
22 Absteine from all appearance of euill.
nchiŵambale chachilichose chachikuwoneka changalumbana.
23 Nowe the very God of peace sanctifie you throughout: and I pray God that your whole spirite and soule and body, may be kept blamelesse vnto the comming of our Lord Iesus Christ.
Akunnungu asyene ŵakutupa chitendewele answejesye mose, mu mbumu syenu ni mitima jenu ni mu iilu yenu, yele yose ikasimanikwa ni ileŵo kukwenu katema kakwika Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito.
24 Faithfull is hee which calleth you, which will also doe it.
Akunnungu ŵammilasile ŵanyamwe chaitendekanye yeleyo pakuŵa ŵelewo ali ŵakulupilichika.
25 Brethren, pray for vs.
Achalongo achinjetu, ntupopeleleje.
26 Greete all the brethren with an holy kisse.
Mwakomasye achalongo wose kwa kwalosya kuti nkwanonyela.
27 I charge you in the Lord, that this Epistle be read vnto all the brethren the Saintes.
Ngunnajisya mu liina lya Ambuje kuti mwasyomele chikalata chi ŵandu wose ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito.
28 The grace of our Lord Iesus Christ be with you, Amen. ‘The first Epistle vnto the Thessalonians written from Athens.’
Tukunsachilanga umbone wa Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito.
