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;
Musiye bahikana vonse vena kwi jokwe kukuteka vayendisi vavo che kute lyulonse. Vaswanera kuchita ichi iri kuti izina lya Ireeza ni tuto yakwe kanji zi nyaziwa.
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;
Vahikana vena vayendisi vavo vachi vava zumini kavaswaneli kuva vuza ikute kakuli mizwale. linu, vaswanera kuva severeza monse ahulu. Kuva yendisi va tusiwa che misevezi yavo kuva zumine ni vasakiwa. Urute ni kutalusa izi 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,
Mwendi zumwi uruta zi chichana mi katambuli itayero zetu zi sepahala, nji kuti, manzwi a Simwine wetu Jesu Keresite. Mwendi mane kava tambuli i tuto zitwala kuvu halo bwa Ireeza.
4 he is proud, knowing nothing, but unhealthy about questions and word-striving, out of which come envy, strife, slanders, evil-surmisings,
Uzo muntu uli kumusa mi kakwina chezi. nihakwina bulyo, u lwala cho kulyangana ni kukanana kuama ziyambo zi sena tuso. Azi ziyambo kazina ituso, ni muuna, ni mukutukana, ni mukuhupulera bantu vuvi, ni
5 wranglings of men wholly corrupted in mind, and destitute of the truth, supposing the piety to be gain; depart from such;
hape pahazwa ifapano i mbilala za vantu va maano a volete. Va sanduka kuzwa kwi niti. Vahupula kuti vulaperi nje nzira ifumiza mutu.
6 but it is great gain—the piety with contentment;
Linu vulaperi ni kusepa che nkulo chifumu chi kando.
7 for we brought nothing into the world—because neither are we able to carry out anything;
Kakuli kakwina chituva leti mwi Nkanda. Hape kakwina chituola kuhinda muili.
8 but having food and raiment—with these we will suffice ourselves;
Linu, tuli tumere che zilyo ni zizwato zitukwete.
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,
Hanu avo vasaka kuva vafumite vawiranga mumiiko, mukla swa. Vawiranga muma lava ovu hafu ni muzintu zi holofaza ni muzintu zonse zipanga vantu kuwira mu kusinyeha ni kufokola.
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;
Kakuti i rato lya mashereñi njo muhisi we zivilala zonse. Vamwi vantu vazi lakamina ahulu chivavazwi mwi tumero mi chivavali hwezi avo vene ni masikuluko mangi ahulu.
11 and you, O man of God, flee these things, and pursue righteousness, piety, faith, love, endurance, meekness.
Kono inwe, vakwame va Ireeza, muzwe kwezi zintu. Mungane kuluka, vulaperi, kusepahala, irato, kuwonderela, ni kulikwata.
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)
Mulwe inkondo i ndotu inkondo ye tumero. Mukwatirire kwi sepiso iya kuireisa mani iyo imuva supwa. I vaka lyechi kuti muvahi vupaki havusu bwe pankinzingi kwecho chili chiloto. (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,
Ni miha iyi itayero havusu Ireeza, yo leta kuti zintu zonse zihale, ni havusu bwa Keresite Jesu, yava wambi chivali che niti kwa Potisi Pilato:
14 that you keep the command unspotted, unblameable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
muvike hande itayero, nikusena kunyazahala, kusikira ha kuvoneka kwa Simwine wetu Jesu Kiresite.
15 which He will show in His own times—the blessed and only sovereign, the King of the kings and Lord of the lords,
Ireeza kezivahaze kuvoneka kwakwe he nako i swanera - Ireeza, yo Fuyaulitwe, inzo ziho zonke, Simwine yo vunsa, Simwine yo yendisa.
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)
Njiyena yenke yasa fwi mi uhala mwi seri lisa loliwa. Kakwina muntu yo mulola kamba kumuvona. Kwali kuve ni kute ni ziho zisa mani. Amen. (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)
Uwambire vafumi mweyinu inkanda kanji valikumusi, ni kusa vika i sepo yavo muchifumu, iri zintu zise kalilire. kono, vaswanera ku sepa mwe Ireeza. Utu newira vonse vuniti bwe chifumu kuti tulikole. (aiōn g165)
18 to do good, to be rich in good works, to be ready to impart, willing to communicate,
Uva wambire kuti banpange hande, kufuma mukupanga zintu zilotu, kuli yumbula, ni kusaka kuliyavira.
19 treasuring up to themselves a right foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on [that which is] truly life.
Mweyo, inzira, muvali vikire musumo mulotu wezo zikezite, iri kuli niva kwatirire kuvuhalo sakata.
20 O Timotheus, guard the thing entrusted, avoiding the profane vain-words and opposition of the falsely-named knowledge,
Timoteya, uvavalere icho chiva hewa kwako. Uzwe kwi ngambolo zo buholo ni kani zisa tusi chimwi checo chiva supa kuti ingana.
21 which certain [ones] professing—swerved concerning the faith. The grace [is] with you! Amen.
Vamwi vantu vawamba inzi zintu mi chivava zwi mwi tumero. Mi chishemo chive nawe.
