1 Timothy 6
1 As many as are servants under a yoke, let them reckon their own masters worthy of all honor, that evil may not be spoken of the Name of God and the teaching;
Leka boonse balimunsi ejogwe mbuli bazike babone basimalelo babo kabeelela boonse bulemu. Beelede kuchita eechi kuchitila kuti izina lyaLeza alimwi aluyiisyo lutakasampawulwi.
2 and those having believing masters, do not let them slight [them], because they are brothers, but rather let them serve, because they are steadfast and beloved, who are partaking of the benefit. Be teaching and exhorting these things;
Bazike bali abasimalelo babo basyoma tabeelede kutondezya kutabalemeka nkaambo mbananyina. Aboobo, beelede kubabelekela milimu mukwiindilila. Nkaambo basimalelo bagwasikana amilimu yabo mbasyomi alimwi mbayandisi. Yiisya alimwi waambe eezi zintu.
3 if anyone be teaching otherwise, and does not consent to sound words—those of our Lord Jesus Christ—and to the teaching according to piety,
Na umwi wayiisya injiisyo yakubeja alimwi katazuminani amajwi aalamunse aMwaami wesu Jesu Kkilisito alimwi ayabunaleza injiisyo,
4 he is proud, knowing nothing, but unhealthy about questions and word-striving, out of which come envy, strife, slanders, evil-surmisings,
ulalisumpula alimwi takwe nchamvwisisisya pe. Uli aachiyandisyo chisofweede mukukazyanya akubonisyanya aatala amajwi ayeta lunyemo, kulwana, zisapi, kuyeeyelana bubi,
5 wranglings of men wholly corrupted in mind, and destitute of the truth, supposing the piety to be gain; depart from such;
alimwi akulwana kutamani aakati kabantu bali aabuntu bwamiyeyo mibi. Bakasweekelwa simpe alimwi bayeya kuti bunaleza ninzila yakujanisya mali nyingi. Amwi malembe achiindi alayungizizya mukulumbayizya, Musosoloke kuzwa kuzintu ziliboobu. Pesi malembe mabotu achiindi lok taajisi.
6 but it is great gain—the piety with contentment;
Lino bunaleza buli aakukkutisikana nkulijanina kupati,
7 for we brought nothing into the world—because neither are we able to carry out anything;
nkaambo takwe nchitwakeeta munyika, alimwi takwe nchiinga tulakonzya kugwisya mulinjiyo.
8 but having food and raiment—with these we will suffice ourselves;
Aboobo, ngatukakkutisikane achakulya akuzisamo.
9 and those intending to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and many desires, foolish and hurtful, that sink men into ruin and destruction,
Lino aabo bayanda kuba bavubi bawida mumasunko, mukakole. Bawida mubufubafuba bwiingi amuziyandisyo zinyonyoona, alimwi kufumbwa mulizimwi zibbizya bantu mukunyonyooka amukumwaya.
10 for the love of money is a root of all the evils, which certain [ones] longing for went astray from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows;
Nkaambo luyando lwemali muyanda wamisyobo yoonse yabubi. Bamwi bantu bayiyanda bakasowegwa kulusyomo alimwi bakaliyasa akumvwa machise mapati.
11 and you, O man of God, flee these things, and pursue righteousness, piety, faith, love, endurance, meekness.
Pesi iwe, muntu waLeza, chija kulizeezi zintu. Tobela bululami, bunaleza, kusyomeka, luyando, lukakatilo, alimwi a bubombe.
12 Be striving the good strife of the faith; be laying hold on the continuous life to which you also were called, and did profess the right profession before many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
Lwana kulwana kubotu kwalusyomo. Jatisya buumi butamani ooko nkuwakiitwa, alimwi ooko nkuwakapa kwaamba kabotu kunembo lyabakamboni biingi. (aiōnios g166)
13 I charge you, before God, who is making all things alive, and of Christ Jesus, who testified the right profession before Pontius Pilate,
Ndapa malayilile aaya kulinduwe kunembo lyaLeza, uupa buumi kuli zyoonse zintu, alimwi kunembi lyaKkilisito Jesu, wakaamba chakasimpe kuzumina kubotu kunembo lyaPontiyasi Pilato,
14 that you keep the command unspotted, unblameable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
kuti abambe mulawu kakutakwe kampenda na kusolwa, kusikila kukuboneka kwaMwaami wesu Jesu Kkilisito.
15 which He will show in His own times—the blessed and only sovereign, the King of the kings and Lord of the lords,
Leza uyootondezya kuboneka kwaKkilisito aachiindi cheelede - Leza, wakalongezegwa alimwi Singuzu alike, Mwaami weendelezya aMwaami uutonga.
16 having immortality alone, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no one of men saw, nor is able to see, to whom [is] honor and perpetual might! Amen. (aiōnios g166)
Alike utafwi alimwi uukkala mumumuni utakonzyi kuswenegwa aafwifwi. Tawo pe muntu kumubona na ukonzya kumulanga. Kulinguwe akube bulemu abweendelezi butamani. Ameni. (aiōnios g166)
17 Charge those rich in the present age not to be high-minded, nor to hope in the uncertainty of riches, but in the living God, who is giving to us all things richly for enjoyment— (aiōn g165)
Mubululami layilila ibanotede munyika iino kuti batabi balisumpula alimwi batabi balangilila kubunoti, butazibinkene. Aboobo, beelede kuba aabulangilizi muliLeza. Ulapa kulindiswe toonse bunoti bwanchoonzyo kuti tunonenwe. (aiōn g165)
18 to do good, to be rich in good works, to be ready to impart, willing to communicate,
Baambile bachite bubotu, banote mumilimu miubotu, akupa kwiindilide alimwi bayandisye kwaabana.
19 treasuring up to themselves a right foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on [that which is] truly life.
Munzila eeyo bayoolilondweda beni intalisyo mbotu yacheecho chizoosika, kuti bakalijatile buumi loko.
20 O Timotheus, guard the thing entrusted, avoiding the profane vain-words and opposition of the falsely-named knowledge,
Timiti, kkwabilila chakapegwa kulinduwe. Kaka kubula bunaleza, kwaambula kutasalali amiyeeyo iikazyanya kulicheecho chibejelwa kuti nduzibo.
21 which certain [ones] professing—swerved concerning the faith. The grace [is] with you! Amen.
Bamwi baalumi baamba eezi bakasweeka kuzwa kulusyomo. Luzyalo lube aandinywe.
