1 Timothy 2
1 I exhort, then, first of all, there be made supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, for all men—
Kutumbula hoti mumjovela Chapanga chemwigana, mumyupa Chapanga, muvayupila vandu vangi na mumsengusa Chapanga ndava ya vandu voha.
2 for kings, and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all piety and gravity,
Muyupa ndava ya vankosi na vandu voha vevana uhotola, muni mtama matamilu changali kulyunga na uteke pamonga na luhala lwa Chapanga na matendu gabwina.
3 for this [is] right and acceptable before God our Savior,
Lijambu lenili labwina na lakumganisa Chapanga msangula witu,
4 who wills all men to be saved, and to come to the full knowledge of the truth;
mweigana vandu voha vasanguliwayi na vaumanya uchakaka.
5 for [there is] one God, also one mediator of God and of men—the man Christ Jesus,
Muni avili Chapanga mmonga, na mewa avili mmonga mweakuvatepulanisa vandu na Chapanga, mundu mwenuyo ndi Kilisitu Yesu,
6 who gave Himself [as] a ransom for all—the testimony in its own times—
mweajiwusili mwene kuvasangula vandu voha. Wenuwu wavi ulangisu, lukumbi lwabwina pawahikili, kuvya Chapanga igana kuvasangula vandu voha.
7 in regard to which I was set a preacher and apostle—truth I say in Christ, I do not lie—a teacher of nations, in faith and truth.
Ndava yeniyo nene natumwili kuvya namtumu na muwula wa vandu vangali Vayawudi, niukokosa ujumbi wa sadika na uchakaka. Nijova chakaka, lepi udese!
8 I intend, therefore, that men pray in every place, lifting up holy hands, apart from anger and deliberation;
Ndi popoha pemwikonganeka kuyupa Chapanga nigana vagosi vayupayi, vagosi vevajiwusili kujivika chakaka kwa Chapanga na vevihotola kukwesa mawoko gavi changali ligoga amala ndindani.
9 also the women in like manner, in orderly apparel, to adorn themselves with modesty and sobriety, not in braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or clothing of great price,
Mewawa, nikuvagana vadala vangolongondi na kuwala nyula za utopesa lepi ndava ya kujinyambisa lepi kwa mitindu ya kukangasa kutiva mayunju, amala kujinyambisa kwa vindu vyabwina, lulu amala nyula za mashonga gamahele,
10 but—which becomes women professing godly piety—through good works.
nambu kujinyambisa kwavi kuganikiwa kuvya mumatendu gabwina ngati chayikuvagana vadala vevakumyidakila Chapanga.
11 Let a woman learn in quietness in all subjection,
Vadala viganikiwa kutama nuu na utopesa lukumbi pevakujiwula lilovi la Chapanga.
12 and I do not allow a woman to teach, nor to rule a husband, but to be in quietness,
Nene nigana lepi mdala amuwula amala amlongosa mgosi, iganikiwa kutama nuu.
13 for Adam was formed first, then Eve,
Muni Adamu awumbiwi hoti, kangi ndi Eva.
14 and Adam was not deceived, but the woman, having been deceived, came into transgression,
Ndi lepi Adamu mweakongiwi, nambu mdala mweakongiwi na kudenya mhilu wa Chapanga.
15 and she will be saved through the childbearing, if they remain in faith, and love, and sanctification, with sobriety.
Nambu vadala yati viveleka bwina ngati vasindimili musadika na uganu na ungolongondi.
