< 1 Timothy 4 >

1 Now the Spirit speaketh euidently, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, and shall giue heede vnto spirits of errour, and doctrines of deuils,
Ma Mmụọ Nsọ agwagheela anyị ọnụ sị, na nʼoge ikpeazụ ụfọdụ mmadụ nʼime chọọchị ga-esite nʼokwukwe wezuga onwe ha, bụrụ ndị na-agbaso mmụọ nduhie nakwa ozizi ihe banyere mmụọ ọjọọ.
2 Which speake lies through hypocrisie, and haue their cosciences burned with an hote yron,
Ozizi dị otu a na-esite nʼihu abụọ nke ndị ụgha, bụ ndị eji igwe ọkụ da nwụọ akọnuche ha.
3 Forbidding to marrie, and commanding to abstaine from meates which God hath created to be receiued with giuing thankes of them which beleeue and knowe the trueth.
Ndị dị otu a na-egbochi ịlụ dị na nwunye na iri ihe oriri ụfọdụ. Ma ọ bụ Chineke kere ihe oriri ndị a ka ndị kwere ekwe, ndị maara eziokwu ahụ jiri ekpere na ekele nara ha.
4 For euery creature of God is good, and nothing ought to be refused, if it be receiued with thankesgiuing.
Ihe niile Chineke kere dị mma, ọ dịkwaghị ihe ọbụla a ga-ajụ ma ọ bụrụ na e jiri ekele nara ya,
5 For it is sanctified by the worde of God, and prayer.
nʼihi na-esitere nʼokwu Chineke na ekpere doo ya nsọ.
6 If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Iesus Christ, which hast bene nourished vp in the wordes of faith, and of good doctrine, which thou hast continually followed.
Ọ bụrụ na ị mee ka ụmụnna mara ihe ndị a, ị ga-abụ ezi onyeozi Kraịst Jisọs, onye a zụlitere nke ọma site nʼeziokwu nke okwukwe, na ezi ozizi nke ị gbasoro.
7 But cast away prophane, and olde wiues fables, and exercise thy selfe vnto godlinesse.
Atụfula oge gị nʼịrụ ụka rụrụ arụ banyere akụkọ ifo nzuzu, na akụkọ na-abaghị uru nke ndị agadi nwanyị na-akọ. Kama zụọ onwe gị ka ị bụrụ onye nke na-asọpụrụ Chineke.
8 For bodily exercise profiteth litle: but godlinesse is profitable vnto all things, which hath the promise of the life present, and of that that is to come.
Igwuri egwu nke anụ ahụ dị mma kama ịbụ onye nke Chineke bara uru karịa nʼụzọ ọbụla, nʼihi na nkwa dị nʼime ya bụ banyere ndụ dị ugbu a na ndụ dị nʼihu.
9 This is a true saying, and by all meanes worthie to be receiued.
Okwu a kwesiri ntụkwasị obi, kwesikwa ka a nara ya nke ọma.
10 For therefore we labour and are rebuked, because we trust in the liuing God, which is the Sauiour of all men, specially of those that beleeue.
Anyị na-adọgbu onwe anyị nʼọrụ na-ahụjukwa anya maka na anyị tụkwasịrị olileanya anyị na Chineke dị ndụ, onye bụ Onye nzọpụta mmadụ niile, karịchasịa, nke ndị niile kwere ekwe.
11 These things warne and teache.
Ndị a bụ ihe ndị ị ga-akụzi, kwudosie ike na-akụzi ha.
12 Let no man despise thy youth, but be vnto them that beleeue, an ensample, in worde, in conuersation, in loue, in spirit, in faith, and in purenesse.
Ekwela ka onye ọbụla lelịa gị anya nʼihi na ịbụ okorobịa. Kama mee ka ị bụrụ ihe ịmaatụ na ihe ilere anya ọma nye ndị kwere ekwe, nʼokwu, nʼibi obi, nʼịhụnanya, nʼokwukwe nakwa nʼịdị ọcha nʼuche.
13 Till I come, giue attendance to reading, to exhortation, and to doctrine.
Tutu ruo mgbe m ga-abịa nʼebe ahụ, na-agụpụta ma na-akọwakwara ndị chọọchị ihe e dere nʼime akwụkwọ nsọ. Na-ekwusakwa okwu Chineke.
14 Despise not the gift that is in thee, which was giuen thee by prophecie with the laying on of the hands of the companie of the Eldership.
Elelịla onyinye ime mmụọ nke i nwere anya, bụ nke e nyere gị site nʼibu amụma pụtara ihe mgbe ndị okenye bikwasịrị gị aka nʼisi.
15 These things exercise, and giue thy selfe vnto them, that it may be seene howe thou profitest among all men.
Jiri onyinye ndị a niile rụọ ọrụ, nọgidesie ike nʼọrụ gị, ka onye ọbụla mata, hụkwa na ị na-eme nke ọma.
16 Take heede vnto thy selfe, and vnto learning: continue therein: for in doing this thou shalt both saue thy selfe, and them that heare thee.
Na-elezi anya na ndụ gị, na ozizi gị. Nọgidesie ike nʼihe ndị a nʼihi na site na ha, ị ga-azọpụta onwe gị, zọpụtakwa ndị na-ege gị ntị.
