1 Timothy 6
1 Let all who are under the yoke as bond-servants count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.
Du bi wa ba gran du ba toh ba ti koh ba ni daraja, duba ti naki saboda duba na kpa inde Irji ti meme ni blabla ma na.
2 And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they who receive the benefit are faithful and beloved. These things teach and exhort.
Igran bi wa ba nei ni ba ti koh bi bangaskiya du ba na kpa ba tsir na don ba mri vayi kpaba, nakima baka ti dun ni kwazo ba tikoh waba ciriba idu bihu Irji kaunatatu ka koya di tsro ba ikpie bi yi
3 If any one teacheth other doctrine, and assenteth not to sound words, the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness,
Inde ndi ri ye si bla kpie ri kan, dana kpa yeim ni tre Bachi bu Yesu Kristi, ni tre Irji.
4 he is puffed up with pride, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, from which cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
Ani wur wo ni san da na to ikpie na, nakima a hei ni jayaya ni san yeiu, nitre, itre, itre bi yi ba jin hug, ni vie, ni mre, ni meme tre.
5 incessant disputings of men corrupted in their minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that godliness is gain.
Ani ji rashi jintuwa, ye ni mi ndi wa ba hei ni gigla hankula, ba kaba ni jaji da ni tre di hu Irji ahi koh u ti klen, iftlft ifqa wu ka chu tu me rhu ni mi ikpie baki ifqa
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
Ziza'a hu Irji di ghen a kikle riba.
7 For we brought nothing into the world; and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
Nakima kina ji kpie di ye ni gbugbulu na kina iya ji kpie di rhu ni mi na.
8 If we have, then, food and raiment, we will be therewith content.
Nakima kika dagana ni biri ni kpie u' sur.
9 But they who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
Naki biwa ba son zama biklen, ba joku ni mi jaraba ba trako, ba joku ni mi ikpie bi meme, ni sha'awoyi bi meme, ni ko gye wa ani jin ndi hi yo ni mi lalaci ni kug.
10 For the love of money is a root of all evils; which some coveting have strayed away from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many pangs.
Nakima son klen ahi ijah kowane meme kpie, ndi bari yadda ba wa klen, baka ikoh jaji ba ja nitu ba shijin ne gbugbuu.
11 But do thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
Wu ndi u Irji, na ri iri kpie baki na, hu adalci, ikon irji, aminci, ison, vu suron, ni ti kpie didi.
12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on everlasting life, to which thou wast called, and didst profess the good profession before many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
Taku didima u' jaji, vu ivri u sise ni sei wa ba yo ye ni mi, itu wayi na shaida ni shishi ndi gbugbu'u nitu ipkie wa a didima (aiōnios g166)
13 I charge thee before God, who giveth life to all things, and before Christ Jesus, who under Pontius Pilate testified the good profession,
Mo no u doka i ni shishi irji wa ani no vri ni kpie ba wawu'u, ni shi Almasihu Yesu, wa ahla kpie wa na didima ni Bilatus Babunti.
14 that thou keep the commandment without spot, without reproach, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Hu doka dede du kpie u mre na hei ni mi na har ye Bachi bu Yesu Almasihu.
15 which in his own times he shall show, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords,
Irji ni tsro yema ni dede iton ma Irji u lulu, makadacin iko. Ichu wa ani yi sarauta, Bachi bu'u mulki.
16 who only hath immortality, dwelling in light unapproachable, whom no man hath seen, or can see; to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen. (aiōnios g166)
Wa wu i ni kangrt ma ana kug na wa ani sun ni mi kpan, wa bana cih hi na. Ba ndi wa ani toh, ko ba hangi u' nikon a tabata ni 'u', ni iko u sisei ni sei Amin. (aiōnios g166)
17 Charge those who are rich in this world that they be not high-minded, nor place their hope in uncertain riches, but in God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; that they do good, (aiōn g165)
Hla ni bi kle ni mi gbugbulu i duba na zu tu na, duba na yo suron ni klen wa ana krie na, nakima baka yo suron ni Irji wa ani nota klen u jaji don kika ji dadi. (aiōn g165)
18 that they be rich in good works, liberal in imparting, willing to communicate,
Hla ni bawu duba ti nagarta, da ti klen ni du didima da ta zo ni bu wo.
19 laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on the true life.
Naki bazi nituba harshashi u' didima, nitu ikpie wa'asi ye nibau' wa ba kpa rayuwa u kwarai.
20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding the profane babblings, and oppositions of the falsely-called knowledge;
Timotawus mla ikpie wa bana no. na cib hi ni bi tre ruru ni sen yieu ni kpie wa ani ga kpa ba, wa ba yo di ilimi u ce.
21 which some professing, have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee.
Indi bari basi duh iri kpie bi yi, don duba kauce ni jaji. Naki du alheri sun ni wa Amin.
