1 Timothy 1

1 Paul, an emissary of Messiah Yeshua according to the commandment of God our Savior, and Messiah Yeshua our hope;

Pauro, muapositori waJesu Kristu nekuraira kwaMwari Muponesi wedu, nekwaIshe Jesu Kristu tariro yedu,

2 to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Messiah Yeshua our Lord.

kuna Timotio mwana wangu chaiye parutendo: Nyasha, tsitsi, nerugare zvinobva kuna Mwari Baba vedu naJesu Kristu Ishe wedu.

3 As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain people not to teach a different doctrine,

Sezvandakakukurudzira kuti ramba ugere paEfeso, ndichienda kuMakedhonia, kuti uraire vamwe kuti varege kudzidzisa imwe dzidziso,

4 neither to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause speculation, rather than God's stewardship, which is in faith—

kana kuchenjerera ngano nenhoroondo dzemadzinza dzisingaperi, dzinomutsa gakava pane kuvaka kwaMwari kuri murutendo.

5 but the goal of this command is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and sincere faith;

Asi chinangwa chemurairo rudo rwunobva pamoyo wakachena nehana yakanaka nerutendo rusinganyepedzeri;

6 from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned aside to vain talking;

pane izvozvi vamwe vakatsvedza vakatsaukira kukutaura kusina maturo,

7 desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor about what they strongly affirm.

vachida kuva vadzidzisi vemurairo, vasinganzwisisi kana zvavanoreva, kana maererano nezvavanosimbisa.

8 But we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully,

Asi tinoziva kuti murairo wakanaka, kana munhu achiushandisa zviri pamurairo,

9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their father or mother, for murderers,

achiziva izvi, kuti murairo hauna kuitirwa wakarurama, asi vasina murairo nevasingateereri, vasingadi Mwari nevatadzi, vasiri vatsvene nevasina hanya naMwari, mhondi dzemadzibaba nemhondi dzana amai, vanouraya vanhu,

10 for the sexually immoral, for men who have sexual relations with men, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and for whatever else is contrary to sound teaching;

mhombwe, ngochani, vanopamba vanhu, vanyepi, vaputsi vemhiko, uye kana chimwe chiriko chinopesana nedzidziso yakagwinya,

11 according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

maererano neevhangeri yekubwinya kwaMwari wakaropafadzwa yandakabatiswa.

12 And I thank him who enabled me, Messiah Yeshua our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service;

Uye ndinovonga wakandigonesa, Kristu Jesu Ishe wedu, kuti wakandiona ndakatendeka, akandiisa paushumiri,

13 although I was before a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

ini ndaimbova munyombi nemushushi nemutuki; asi ndakawana tsitsi, nokuti ndakaita nekusaziva pakusatenda;

14 The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Messiah Yeshua.

asi nyasha dzaIshe wedu dzakawedzeresa pamwe nerutendo nerudo rwuri muna Kristu Jesu.

15 The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Messiah Yeshua came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

Ishoko rakatendeka uye rinofanira kugamuchirwa chese, kuti Kristu Jesu wakauya munyika kuzoponesa vatadzi, vandiri ini mukuru wavo;

16 However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Yeshua the Messiah might display all his patience, for an example of those who were going to believe in him for everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)

asi nekuda kweizvi ndakawana tsitsi, kuti mandiri ndinova mukuru, Jesu Kristu aratidze moyo murefu wese, uve muenzaniso kune vanozotenda kwaari, paupenyu husingaperi. (aiōnios g166)

17 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

Zvino kuna Mambo wekusingaperi, asingafi, asingaonekwi, Mwari wega wakachenjera, ngakuve nekukudzwa nekubwinya kusvikira rinhi narinhi. Ameni. (aiōn g165)

18 This instruction I commit to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which led the way to you, that by them you may wage the good warfare;

Murairo uyu ndinokumikidza kwauri, mwana wangu Timotio, sezviporofita zvakatanga pamusoro pako, kuti nazvo urwe kurwa kwakanaka;

19 holding faith and a good conscience; which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith;

wakabata rutendo nehana yakanaka, vamwe vakati vairasa zvichienderana nerutendo vakaputsikirwa nechikepe,

20 of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I delivered to Satan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.

vamwe vavo ndiHimenayosi naArekizandro, vandakakumikidza kuna Satani, kuti vadzidze kusanyomba.
