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;
Yaaba n ye ti yonbidi lolimanni n yaa nua ke bi canbaa ba pundi ban kpiagiba li bonla kuli nni. Ke ban da sugidi UTienu yeli leni obangima
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;
yaa yonbi n tuuni yaa canbaan ba n daani po n dafaliba kelima bi tie kpiiba, Ama ban yaa tuuni bi po ki cie kelima bi tie niginkaaba ki go tie bi bua kaaba. Han bangi laa bonla ki go ñii li po.
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,
O nilo yaa bangi bangitoama, kaa hua O DIEDO JESU maama leni obangima leni o teginma.
4 he is proud, knowing nothing, but unhealthy about questions and word-striving, out of which come envy, strife, slanders, evil-surmisings,
O tie japaadaano, kaa bani li ba, ke li tie po nani Uyienu yen, opia mi niama, li nunponli, li koanli kulinkundu leni a yanjagibiada.
5 wranglings of men wholly corrupted in mind, and destitute of the truth, supposing the piety to be gain; depart from such;
Mi mafanma leni yaaba yaa yantiana n joagini bi luo imoamoani bi nua ke Ke UTienu teginma n tie ti ñuadi hiali.
6 but it is great gain—the piety with contentment;
Li tie ñuaciandi hiali a ya mangi apali han pia yaala.
7 for we brought nothing into the world—because neither are we able to carry out anything;
Kelima tii den cua leni ba kuli li handunli nni, li go doagidi cain ke ti kan fidi ki taa li ba kuli lienni.
8 but having food and raiment—with these we will suffice ourselves;
Lani wani ti ya pia mi jiema leni ti tiayiekaadi li baa dagidi ti po.
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,
Ama yaababa n bua ki tua piada baa ba mi tulinma nni. Bi yankuabiada, ya n kaa pia fuoma ki baa biidi ba yeni, cuoba nani ku diagu yeni ki teni ke bi feli ki bodi cain.
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;
Kelima mi ligi buama tie li bonbiadi kuli yaa jiinu; Bi tianba den kuani bi yula lienni ki yaadi ki li dandanli, ki kuani bi yama lienni ki yaadi ki ha li dandanli ki kuani bi yula ti yan yangidi nni.
11 and you, O man of God, flee these things, and pursue righteousness, piety, faith, love, endurance, meekness.
Ama fini U Tienu nilo ŋan sani ki ŋa laa bonla ki lingi mi teginma, mi gagidiŋanma, li dandanli nni, mi buama li juuli, mi dingima.
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)
Han koani li dandanli koanŋanli, ki cuo ya miali n kangbeni, U Tienu n den yini a yaala yaapo ŋan go den tieni yaala ya seediŋamo bi niba boncianla nintuali. (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,
N teni a li ñoabonli U Tienu yua n tendi li bonla kuli li miali leni Jesu kilisiti yua n den doagidi li dandanmoanli Ponisa Pilata nuntuali, ŋan kubi laa ñoabonli.
14 that you keep the command unspotted, unblameable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Ke han ya ŋua min teni a ya ñoabonli na cain, ki da tudi ba waamu ŋali ti diedo Jesu Kilisiti n baa doagidi o yuli yaa yogunu.
15 which He will show in His own times—the blessed and only sovereign, the King of the kings and Lord of the lords,
Li yogunu ya pundi U Tienu baa teni o doagidima yeni n tieni, wani yua n pia u paalu kuli ki tie bi badiba kuli bado leni bi diediba kuli diedo.
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)
Wani yua n ki pia kuuma, ki ye ya yenma n gagidi nni, oba kuli nki la yua ki kan fidi ki le o mo, wani yua n die ti kpiagidi leni u paalu ŋali yaa yogunu kuli. Amina! (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)
Han tundi ya nifiima n tie na piada ke ban da tua japaadanba. Ki da kuani bi suginma bi piama nni, ama ban kuani ma U Tienu yaa niinni, wani yua n puuni ti li bonla kuli ŋali ke li kandi ke tin ya pia li pamanli. (aiōn g165)
18 to do good, to be rich in good works, to be ready to impart, willing to communicate,
Han waani ba ban ya tiedi mi ŋanma, ki ya pia a tuonŋama, ti bulicindi ki ya puuni.
19 treasuring up to themselves a right foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on [that which is] truly life.
Ban ya tiedi yeni ki biliti bi yula po o ŋalimanmoano ya yogunu n ba ti cua po ki fidi ki cuo li miamoanli.
20 O Timotheus, guard the thing entrusted, avoiding the profane vain-words and opposition of the falsely-named knowledge,
Fini Timote ŋan ya gu U Tienu pianli ki foagidi leni bi nisaaliba n pia ya niama ke maa ŋua i moamoani.
21 which certain [ones] professing—swerved concerning the faith. The grace [is] with you! Amen.
Bi nitianba ŋoadi laa bonla ki yaadi ki ŋa li dandanli. U Tienu ŋanbili n yaa ye leni yi kuli.
