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;
avakami vooni avitiki, vijisyaghe kuvavombelua vaave, kuuti ilitavua lya Nguluve ni mbulanisio siitnasingabenapulwaghe.
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;
avakami vano avavombelua vaave vitiki, valekaghe pikuvabenapula ulwakuva va kipugha kimo. ulwene vanoghile kukuvavombela, vunofu na pikila, apuo viiva vikuvatanga avajanave mulwitio, kange avuo vaghanike vaave. isio uvulanisiaghe na kupavila.
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,
kwevale avanhu vano vivulanisia imbulanisio sa vudesi. sino vivulanisia nasikwiting'hana na masio amanya vwumi agha Mmutwa ghwitu uYesu Kilisite, kange nasikwiting'hana nu vwimike.
4 he is proud, knowing nothing, but unhealthy about questions and word-striving, out of which come envy, strife, slanders, evil-surmisings,
avuo vamemile ulughinio, kange navakagwile kimonga. avanhu avuo vikwumilila mulukaani ulusila luvumbulilo vwimila utusio utudebe. mu uluo jihumila igiila, amabaatu, amaligho, angananio,
5 wranglings of men wholly corrupted in mind, and destitute of the truth, supposing the piety to be gain; depart from such;
kange jaatu ghinangania amapuling'ano. avaanhu avuo vanangiike uluhala, vasila vwakyang'ani visaagha kuuti kuvomba imbombo ija Nguluve je sila ija kukavila ikyuma.
6 but it is great gain—the piety with contentment;
ulwakuuva ni kyuma luvumbulilo, neke umuunhu iiva nu luvumbulilo ulukome, pano ikumwitika uNguluve na kukwilana ni fiinu fino ali nafyo.
7 for we brought nothing into the world—because neither are we able to carry out anything;
ulwakuuva muiisi muno natwalisile na kimonga, kange natungavuuke na kimonga,
8 but having food and raiment—with these we will suffice ourselves;
looli tungave ni kyakulia ni fya kufwala tukwilanaghe nifio.
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,
neke vavo vali nu vunoghelua uvwa kyuma vwimila mungelo, nakughwilila munhegho na muvunoghelua uvwa kijasu vuno vukuvanangania. uluo lukuvapelela kupumuka kyongo.
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;
ulwakuva kukusighana kyongo indalama vwe vutengulilo vwa vuvili vwinga. vamonga vinoghilue isio vasyangilue valulekile ulwitiko, pe vali muvuvafi uvukome hwene muunhu juno ikuhoma nu mmaghe.
11 and you, O man of God, flee these things, and pursue righteousness, piety, faith, love, endurance, meekness.
looli uve ghwe muunhu ghwa Nguluve, usikimbilaghe isio. uvingililaghe uvwimike, uvwimike, ulwitiko, ulughano, ulugudo nu vuhugu.
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)
ghimbagha kukum'bingilila uNguluve ndavule lutalamu ndaani, neke ukolelelaghe uvwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila, vuno ghwa ghwakemelilue pala panoghwalyitike pavolesi avinga. (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,
nikukulaghila pamaaso gha Nguluve juno ikufiviika fyumi ifinu fyoni, na pamaaso gha Yeesu Kilisite, juno alyajovile uvwolesi uvwa kyanghaani pamaaso gha Pontio Pilato,
14 that you keep the command unspotted, unblameable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
niiti, ugadililaghe indaghilo isio muvunofu vwoni, kuhanga pano alaava ikwisa uMutwa ghwitu uYeesu Kilisite.
15 which He will show in His own times—the blessed and only sovereign, the King of the kings and Lord of the lords,
kukwisa kwa mwene kulaava unsiki ghuno ataviike uNguluve juno ighinisivua, unya ngufu juno mwene, uNtwa ghwa vatwa vooni.
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)
ujuo ghwe juno uvufue navukam'bona, ikalile palumuli luno umuunhu nangaluvelelele. kange nakwale umuunhu juno amwaghile, nambe juno ndepoonu ikumwagha. uvwoghopua ni ngufu ali nafyo ifighono fyoni 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)
vavuule avamofu valeke kukughinia, nambe kuhuviila uvumofu vwake uvwa muiisi iji, vuno vwa nsiki n'debe. looli vamhuvilaghe uNguluve juno ikutupeela iffinu fyoni muvukoola vwake, kuuti tufivombelaghe nu lukeelo. (aiōn g165)
18 to do good, to be rich in good works, to be ready to impart, willing to communicate,
kange avavuule vavombaghe inofu neke vavisaghe vamofu mumbombo inofu ndavile avange vule vamofu mufiinu. vavisaghe vapeesi nakuhangilanila na vange ikyuma kyave.
19 treasuring up to themselves a right foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on [that which is] truly life.
kuvomba imbombo inofu isio, luli ndavule kuvuta ifiinu ifya kukutanga unsiki ghuno ghukwisa, ukuo kwe kukuvikila ulwalo ulukangafu ifighono fino fikwisa, apuo pepano valupila uvwumi uvwa kyang'haani.
20 O Timotheus, guard the thing entrusted, avoiding the profane vain-words and opposition of the falsely-named knowledge,
timoteo, gadililagha vunofu uvyakyang'haani vuno upelilue. ulekaghe kukujingisia mumasio ghano nagha Mutwa amasila luvumbulilo na makaning'hano agha kijasu, ghano avange viiti vwe vukagusi.
21 which certain [ones] professing—swerved concerning the faith. The grace [is] with you! Amen.
avaanhu avange vano vasikolile isio, valulekile ulwitiko lwave. ulusungu luvisaghe palikimo numue.
