1 Timothy 2
1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all men;
Boye liboso na nyonso, nazali kolendisa ete bosengaka na Nzambe, bosambelaka Ye, bobondelaka Ye mpo na bato mosusu mpe bozongiselaka Ye matondi mpo na bato nyonso,
2 For kings, and [for] all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
mpo na bakonzi mpe mpo na bakambi nyonso, mpo ete tokoka kobika bomoi ya boboto, ya kimia, ya botosi kati na makambo ya Nzambe, mpe bomoi ya bosantu.
3 For this [is] good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
Pamba te yango nde ezali malamu mpe esepelisaka Nzambe Mobikisi na biso,
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
oyo alingi ete bato nyonso babikisama mpe bayeba solo.
5 For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
Solo, ezali na Nzambe kaka moko. Ndenge moko mpe ezali na Moyokanisi kaka moko kati na Nzambe mpe bato: ezali moto moko, Yesu-Klisto
6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
oyo amikabaki lokola mbeka mpo na kokangola bato nyonso. Yango nde litatoli oyo epesamaki na tango oyo abongisa.
7 Where unto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, [and] lie not; ) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
Ezali mpe mpo na litatoli yango nde Nzambe atiaki ngai mopanzi sango mpe ntoma, mpo na kolakisa kondima mpe solo epai ya Bapagano. Nazali kokosa te, nazali nde koloba solo.
8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.
Yango wana nalingi ete mibali basambelaka na bisika nyonso, na kotombola maboko ya bule, na kanda te mpe na koswana te.
9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
Nalingi mpe ete basi balataka na ndenge oyo ebongi, oyo ekoki te kobetisa bato mabaku, mpe na ndenge ya lolendo te; bakangisa suki te mpe balata te ezala biloko ya wolo, mayaka to bilamba ya talo makasi,
10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
kasi balata nde misala ya malamu, misala oyo ebongi mpo na basi oyo batatolaka polele ete bagumbamelaka Nzambe.
11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
Na tango ya mateya, basi basengeli kovanda nye mpe kozala na botosi.
12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
Napesi te na mwasi nzela ya koteya to ya kozala na bokonzi na likolo ya mobali; mwasi asengeli nde kovanda nye.
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
Solo Nzambe asalaki liboso Adamu, mpe sima, Eva.
14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
Ezali Adamu te moto akosamaki; ezali mwasi nde akosamaki mpe abukaki mobeko ya Nzambe,
15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
kasi mwasi akobikisama na nzela ya kobota. Basi bakobikisama soki bakobi kati na kondima, kati na bolingo mpe kati na bosantu oyo ezangi lolendo.
