1 Timothy 4
1 NOW the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
Mushimu Uswepa ulambilishingeti bantu nibakataye lushomo mu masuba akupwililisha, nekutatika kunyumfwila mishimu yabwepeshi nekukonkela biyisho bya mishimu yaipa.
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
Biyisho bilico, bantu bandemishibili ebakute miyeyo yafwa, yatentwa ne nshimbi yalungula.
3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
Aba bantu endibo beshikukanisha kweba ne kulya byakula, kakuli Lesa walalenga byakulya kwambeti bashoma kayi bacinshi cancinencine babilye mwakulumba Lesa.
4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
Ciliconse ncalalenga Lesa caina nkacela kusesemya bantu, na mucikutambula mwakulumba,
5 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
pakwinga cikute kuswepeshewa ne maswi a Lesa ne mipailo.
6 If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.
Na ubeyishenga bintu ibi bantu nabambi, nukabe musebenshi waina wa Klistu Yesu, walalesha kukula mushimba mu biyisho bya lushomo lwetu ne lunyumfwila ndokute kubiyisho bya ca ncinencine mbyolakonkelenga.
7 But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.
Nikukabeco kotantamuka ku makani a tulabi twabuluya, mbuli tulabi ntobasuna kwamba batukashi bamacembele. Obe pitilisha kusha mano ku buyumi bwaina bwa kupaila Lesa.
8 For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.
Ee kwishibisha mubili kusebensa ncito nako kwaina pang'ana, nomba kwishibisha mubili kusebensa ncito sha ku mushimu kwapitapo kwina. Pakwinga kukute lulayo mu buyumi bwa cino cindi, kayi mu cindi ca kuntangu, buyumi butapu.
9 This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.
Awa ni makani a cancine ncine elela kutambulwa ca makasa abili, kayi ne kwashomwa.
10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.
Encetulasebenselenga cangofu, pakwinga kupembelela kwetu kuli muli Lesa muyumi, Mupulushi wa bantu bonse makamaka abo bashoma.
11 These things command and teach.
Bayishe bintu ibi, kayi ubambile bensenga ncelabambilinga.
12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
Kakutaba muntu naba umo eti akunyanshe cebo cakuba kanike, koba cilesho kulyabo bashoma mung'ambilo, ne mucendo nemulusuno ne mulushomo kayi ne mukubula kampenda.
13 Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.
Mpaka nkese, kosha mano kukubelenga Mabala a Lesa kwambeti wasansululenga ne kwiyisha cena.
14 Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.
Pitilisha kusebensesha cipo ca Mushimu Uswepa cili muli njobe calapewa kuli njobe mpobalakambauka bashinshimi makani a Lesa, abo batangunishi ba mubungano balabika makasa abo pali njobe.
15 Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.
Koyeyapo pa bintu ibi mwakushako mano, kwambeti kuya pantangu kwakobe kubonekele kuli bonse.
16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.
Shako mano ku bintu mbyolenshinga ne kubintu mbyoleyishinga. Pitilisha kwinsa bintu ibi, pakwinga wenseco, obe pamo ne bakunyumfwilinga nimukapuluke.
