1 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus, through the command of God, our Saviour, and Christ Jesus, our hope,
Nne Pauli ntume jwa a Yeshu Kilishitu, kwa pinga kwabho a Nnungu Bhaatapula na a Yeshu bhali ngulupalilo yetu.
2 to Timothy, my true child in the faith: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Ngunakunnjandishila mmwe a Timoteo mmanangu bha kweli nngulupai. Ngunakunnjujila nema na shiya na ulele, kukopoka kwa Atati a Nnungu, na a Yeshu Kilishitu Bhakulungwa bhetu.
3 As I besought thee, when I set out for Macedonia, to remain still in Ephesus, that thou mightst charge certain persons not to teach other doctrine,
Ngunaapinga ntame ku Epesho, malinga shinanshondelesheye punajendaga ku Makedonia, nkupinga mwaalimbiyanje bhandunji bhaajiganyanga majiganyo ga unami,
4 nor to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which occasion disputes rather than promote God's dispensation which is in faith, [[so I do now.]]
wala bhanakagulilanje ndango yangali malombolelo, na nndondonga gwa mena ga bhanyikala, gwangali mpelo, ikumbuya mitau na wala ikakwaajangutilanga bhandunji nngulupai.
5 Now the end of the commandment is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and faith unfeigned;
Kwa nneyo, shitumbililwe kwa gene malajiloga, nikwaakwiyanga bhandunji bhapingananje, kwa ntima gwa mmbone, na ng'aniyo ya muntima ili ya mmbone, na ngulupai yangali ugulumba.
6 from which some swerving turned aside to vain babbling,
Bhandu bhananji bhashipuganikanga ni tendebhushila malobhe gangali ga mmbone.
7 desiring to be teachers of the Law, understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
Bhanapinganga kubha bhaajiganya bha malajilo ga a Musha, ikabheje bhakakugamanyanga malobhe gubhaabheleketanga, wala ibhakong'ondelanga.
8 But we know that the Law is good, if a man use it lawfully,
Tumumanyi kuti shalia ja a Musha ni ja mmbone, ibhaga mundu shaakagulile kwa aki.
9 knowing this, that the Law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and unruly, for the ungodly and sinful, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for man-slayers,
Ikabheje tukumbushile kuti, shalia jangabhikwa kwa ligongo lya bhandunji bhanguja, ikabhe kwa ligongo lya bhandunji bhaatendanga yangali ya mmbone, na bhakaakundanga, na bhakakwaishimiyanga a Nnungu, na bhakwetenje yambi, na bhandunji bhanyatiyanga indu ya ukonjelo pa shilambolyo, na bhandunji bhakwaabhulaganga bhaakwetenje, eu bhaabhulaganga bhobhowe bhala,
10 for whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for men-stealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to the sound teaching,
shalia jishibhikwa kwa ligongo lya bha labhalabha, na bhaagonana ashaayene, yani, bhanabhalume kwa bhanabhalume, na bhanabhakongwe kwa bhanabhakongwe, bhandunji bhaajibhanga bhandu, na bhandunji bha unami, na bhandunji bhaalumbilanga kwa unami, na bhaatendanga shindu shoshowe shikana malajilo ga kweli.
11 according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God which was committed to my trust.
Gene majiganyogo mugaabhoneka, Nngani ja Mmbone ja a Nnungu bha ukonjelo na bha mboka, jimbegwilwe nunguye.
12 And I thank him who gave me strength, Christ Jesus our Lord, that he accounted me faithful, putting me into the ministry, t
Ngunakwaatendela eja a Yeshu Kilishitu bhambele mashili ga kamula liengo lyangu. Ngunakwaatendela eja pabha bhashimona nne kuti najwaakulupalilwa, gubhang'agwile naatendele liengo lyabho,
13 though formerly I was a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and a doer of outrage; but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly, in unbelief;
nkali bhukala gula, natendaga kwaatukana na kwaashima, na kwaatendela nngomo. Ikabheje a Nnungu gubhamonele shiya, pabha ngakweteje ngulupai na ngashimanyaga shingutenda.
14 and the grace of our Lord was exceedingly abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
Ikabheje Bhakulungwa bhetu bhashinkumba nema ja punda, gubhambele ngulupai na pingana, nkulundana na a Yeshu Kilishitu.
15 True is the saying, and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.
Ni lilobhe lya kulupalika kaje, na linapinjikwa liposhelwe kuti, a Yeshu Kilishitu bhashinkwiya pa shilambolyo kukwaatapulanga bhakwetenje ilebho. Na nne, ni napundile kulebha punda bhowenji,
16 But for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me especially Christ Jesus might show forth all his long-suffering, as an example to those who should hereafter believe in him to life everlasting. (aiōnios g166)
ikabheje a Nnungu gubhamonele shiya nkupinga a Kilishitu bhalanguye kwiipililila kwabho kowe mwangu nne naaliji nankulebha kupunda bhowe, nkupinga nne mme jwa langulwa ku bhandunji bhowe, shibhajiye kwaakulupalilanga na poshela gumi gwa pitipiti. (aiōnios g166)
17 Now to the King eternal, the imperishable, invisible, only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Kwa bhenebho bhali a Mpalume bha pitipiti, bhakawa na bhakaabhoneka, bhene bhali a Nnungu jikape, kwa bhenebho jibhe ishima, na ukonjelo pitipiti! Amina. (aiōn g165)
18 This charge I commit to thee, my child Timothy, in accordance with the directions of the prophets before given to thee, that thou mayst in them war the good warfare,
Mwanangu Timoteo, ngunakupa gene malajilo gano, malinga malobhe gunabhalanjilwe bhukala na ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu. Ugatende gene malobhego gabhe shikomanilo shako nkukomana ukoto ngondo jako.
19 having faith, and a good conscience, which some thrusting away made shipwreck concerning the faith;
Ukole ngulupai na ng'aniyo ya mmbone. Bhandunji bhana gubhaikanilenje ng'aniyo yabhonji, niobhiya ngulupai yabhonji.
20 of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
Munkumbi gwabhonji bhapalinji, a Imeneyo na a Alekishanda, bhene bhunimpele Lishetani, nkupinga bhaajiganywanje bhanaatukananje a Nnungu kabhili.
