1 Timothy 1
1 PAUL, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the order of God, our Saviour, and Lord, Jesus Christ, who is our hope;
Nene Pauli, mtumi wa Yesu Kilisitu kwa malagizu ga Chapanga msangula witu na Yesu Kilisitu huvalila yitu.
2 to Timothy, my genuine son in faith: grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Nikuyandikila Timoti mwana vangu wa chakaka musadika. Nikuganila ubwina wa Chapanga na lipyana na uteke kuhuma kwa Chapanga Dadi witu na Kilisitu Yesu Bambu witu.
3 As I exhorted thee to abide at Ephesus when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest enjoin certain persons to introduce no different doctrine,
Niyupa utama ku Efeso ngati chana kuyupili panahambayi Makedonia. Vavili vandu kwenuko veviwula mawuliwu gaudese. Vabesayi vandu avo.
4 nor to attend to fables and endless genealogies, which give occasion to disputes rather than godly edification, which is by faith; so do.
Vajovela veleka luhumu zangali chindu na magono goha kuluwula mahina ga vagogo changali mwishu, ndi vevileta ndindani. Vikumtangatila lepi mundu yeyoha kuhenga lihengu la Chapanga lelihengeka musadika.
5 For the end of the commandment is love out of a clean heart, and good conscience, and faith unfeigned:
Chindu chivaha cha mhilu uwu ndi kukangamalisa uganu weuhumila mumtima wa msopi, mtima wa kugana kuhenga gabwina, na sadika ya chakaka.
6 from which some, having swerved, have turned aside to vain babbling;
Vandu vangi vakongiwi na kung'anamukila malongesi gangali utangatila.
7 affecting to be doctors of the law, though they underhand neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
Vigana kuvya vawuliwa va malagizu, nambu nakuchimanya chevakujijova vene amala mambu gevikangamalisa.
8 But we know that the law is good if a man use it according to its institution;
Timanyili kuvya malagizu gabwina, ngati mundu ilola cheyiganikiwa kulola.
9 knowing this, that the law is not made for the just man, but for the lawless and disorderly, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for men-slayers,
Timanyili kuvya malagizu nakuvikiwa ndava ya vandu vabwina, ndi vandu vahakau, vangayidakila malagizu, vevakumbela Chapanga na vandu vangamuyogopa Chapanga, amala kumgundamila Chapanga, vandu vevakuvakoma vadadi na vanyina vavi, amala vakomaji vovoha vala.
10 for whoremongers, for sodomites, for stealers of men, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing which is contrary to sound doctrine,
Muhilu uvikiwi ndava ya vevikita ukemi na vagosi vevikita ukemi vene kwa vene, vevigulisa vandu, vaudese na vevilapa udese amala vovoha vangalanda mawuliwu gachakaka.
11 according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I have been put in trust.
Mawuliwu aga gihuma mu Lilovi la Bwina genipewili na Chapanga muni niyikokosayi. Lilovi la Bwina lenili lihuma kwa Chapanga mweavi na ukulu na mweilumbiwa magono goha.
12 And I render thanks to him who hath strengthened me, even to Christ Jesus our Lord, that he hath counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;
Nikumsengusa Bambu witu Yesu Kilisitu mwenipelili makakala ndava ya lihengu langu. Nisengula ndava ya kunilola nene kuvya msadikika, anihagwili nimuhengela.
13 who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and insolently violent, But I was admitted to mercy, for I did it ignorantly in unbelief;
Hati peatumbwili pala namng'ahili na kumliga na kumvevesa, nambu Chapanga anihengili lipyana, ndava muni navili lepi na sadika kwakona, ndi namanyili lepi chenikita.
14 but the grace of our Lord hath exceedingly abounded with faith and love, which is in Christ Jesus.
Nambu Bambu witu anipelili ubwina waki kwa umahele, anipelili sadika na uganu wetivili nawu mukuwungana na Kilisitu Yesu.
15 It is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the chief.
Majovo aga ndi gachakaka, na kangi uganikiwa kuyidakiwa, Kilisitu Yesu abwelili pamulima kuvasangula vevakumbudila Chapanga. Na nene ndi mbudanu kuliku venavo voha,
16 But for this end obtained I mercy, that in me, the chief, Jesus Christ might shew forth all long-suffering, for a pattern to those who should after believe in him unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
nambu Chapanga anihengili lipyana. Muni nene mwenavili nikumbudila Chapanga kuliku voha, Kilisitu Yesu alangisa ukangamala waki wangali mwishu muni kandahi nivya luhumu kwa vala vevakumsadika na kupokela wumi wa magono goha wangali mwishu. (aiōnios g166)
17 Now to the king eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Kwaki mwene mweavi Nkosi wa magono goha, mwangafwa, mwangaloleka na mweavili Chapanga mwene, kwaki kuvya kutopeswa na ukulu magono goha gangali mwishu! Ena. (aiōn g165)
18 This commandment, son Timothy, I give thee, according to the prophecies which were before delivered concerning thee, that by them thou mightest war a good warfare;
Mwana vangu Timoti, nikugotolela lilagizu lenili kulandana na malovi ga ulota gegajoviki kadeni ndava yaku. Gatumila malovi ago gavyai vindu vya kukomenela ngondo bwina,
19 holding faith and a good conscience, which some having renounced, as touching the faith, have been shipwrecked:
na uvyayi na mtima wa kukumbuka kukita gabwina. Vandu vangi nakuyuwanila maholo gavi ndi vakahalibisa sadika yavi.
20 of whom are Hymeneus and Alexander, whom I have delivered over unto Satan, that they may be corrected, so as to blaspheme no more.
Pagati yavi vavili Humenayo na Alekizanda, ndi nivatovili kwa kuvagotola mu mawoko ga Setani, muni vawuliwayi vakotoka kumliga Chapanga.
