1 Timothy 6
1 Let as many as are slaves under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and the doctrine not be blasphemed.
Bika batu bobo badi ku tsi luyalu lu kivika, bakinzika bapfumu ziawumu bufuana muingi dizina di Nzambi ayi malongi meto mabika vuezo.
2 Those who have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brothers, but rather let them serve them, because those who partake of the benefit are believing and beloved. Teach and exhort these things.
Mimvika miomi midi ku tsi luyalu lu bapfumu ziozi ziwilukila mibika lezanga bapfumu ziawu mu diambu badi bakhomba mu Klisto. Vayi miluta kuba sadilanga bu badi batu bawilukila ayi bakundi ba luzoloba Nzambi. Mawu momo mambu fueti longa ayi fueti lubula.
3 If anyone teaches a different doctrine, and does not consent to sound words, the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness,
Enati vadi mutu weti longa mambu mavenga, ayi kakadi singimina mu mambu ma kiedika ma Pfumuꞌeto Yesu Klisto ayi mu malongi madedakana mukhinzukulu yi Nzambi;
4 he is conceited, knowing nothing, but obsessed with arguments, disputes, and word battles, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions,
buna mutu beni widi nkua luniemo, kasi zaba kadi diambu ko, vayi kimbevo kidi yandi kiyuvulanga biuvu ayi kifindananga ziphaka mambutanga kikhenene, minzonza; bifingu ayi bimbanzila;
5 constant friction of people of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain.
ziphaka ziphamba zi batu basumuka mu diela diawu ayi bakambulu kiedika, beti banzila ti kinzikanga Nzambi yidi tho yi bakilanga ndandu.
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
Muaki bukiedika ti kinzikanga Nzambi yidi ndandu yinneni enati wummonanga khini mu biobi bidi yaku.
7 For we brought nothing into the world, so neither can we carry anything out.
Bila bukiedika tusia nata kadi kima ko va nza ayi tulendi natakadi kima bu tuela botuka va nza.
8 But having food and clothing, we will be content with that.
Vayi bu tubeki bidia ayi minledi mivuata, biobi bifueni kaka kuidi beto.
9 But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as plunge people into ruin and destruction.
Bobo batidi ba zimvuama bawu beti luta bua mu ziphukumunu ayi mu mintambu, mu zinzinunu zi buvungisi ziwombo ayi zimbimbi ziozizinatanga batu ku mbivusu ayi ku nzimbala.
10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
Bila “luzolo lu mbongo luidi muanzi wumbutanga mambu moso mambimbi.” Bankaka bu banuanina mu baka ziawu, bazimbala mu minu; bakimonisa ziphasi ziwombo. Nuana nduanunu yimbote yi minu.
11 But you, man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and gentleness.
Vayi ngeyo mutu wu Nzambi, tina mambu momo. Landakana busonga, kinzikanga Nzambi, minu, luzolo, mvibudulu, lembama.
12 Fight the good fight of faith. Lay hold of the everlasting life to which you were called, and you confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
Nuana nduanunu yimboti yi minu, zimbidila luzingu lukalumani, bila ngeyo wutelo mbila mu diambu di luawu; ayi mu diambu di luawu wutelimina kimbangi kimboti va meso ma bambangi bawombo. (aiōnios g166)
13 I command you before God, who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate testified the good confession,
Ndikutumina va meso na Nzambi, wunzingisanga bima bioso, ayi va meso ma Klisto Yesu, wutelama kimbangi ki kitoko va meso ma Ponse Pilatu:
14 that you keep the commandment without spot, blameless, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ;
mu diambu wukeba lutumunu lualu mu kambu ditona ayi tsembolo natemu lumbu kiela monika Pfumu eto Yesu Klisto,
15 which in its own times he will show, who is the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
mutu wowo Nzambi kela totula mu thangu yifuana. Niandi kaka mutu wu zikhini ayi wulenda vanga mamo maka zodidi. Ntinu wu mintinu ayi Pfumu yi bapfumu
16 who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light; whom no human has seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and eternal power. Amen. (aiōnios g166)
Niandi kaka, ka kafuanga ko, wumvuandanga va kienzila kilendi baka bu fikumunu ko. Mutu kammuenieti ko ayi mutu kalendi kummona ko. Niandi vuidi nzitusu ayi lulendo mu mimvu mioso. Amen! (aiōnios g166)
17 Charge those who are rich in this present world that they not be haughty, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy; (aiōn g165)
Lubula zimvuama zi thangu yayi ti babika ba luniemo ayi babika tula diana diawu mu kimvuama kieti suka, vayi batula diana diawu mu Nzambiwukutuvananga bima bioso mu kimvuama muingi beto tu bisadila. (aiōn g165)
18 that they do good, that they be rich in good works, that they be ready to distribute, willing to communicate;
Wuba kamba bavanga mamboti, baba zimvuama mu mavanga mamboti, bika baba bakubama mu kaba kuidi bankaka mu ntima wu luzolo.
19 laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold of that which is truly life.
Mu nzila yoyo balenda kukikubikila kiuka kingolo mu diambu diawu. Kiuka kioki kiela ba fondasio mu thangu yidi ku ntuala muingi basimbidila luzingu lu kiedika.
20 Timothy, guard that which is committed to you, turning away from the empty chatter and oppositions of the knowledge which is falsely so called;
Timote, keba bumbote mamo ma bayekudila; tina mambu ma phamba ayi makambulu ma kinzambi; tina ziphaka zi buvungisi ziozi beti tedila nzayilu vayi yidi nzayilu yi luvunu.
21 which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with you.
Bila bankaka bu bakikinina nzayilu yoyi, bazimbala mu minu. Bika nlemvo wubanga yeno.
