< Romans 14 >

1 Him that is weak in his faith receive with kindness, and not to pass judgment on his thoughts.
Mumposhelanje Nkilishitu akaakulupalila ukoto, nnaiibhukanje nkutaukangana ga ng'aniyo yakwe.
2 One man hath faith to eat every kind of food; another, who is weak, eateth herbs only.
Mundu juna kwa ngulupai jakwe, analya indu yowe, na juna kwa ngulupai jakwe jikanabhe komala, analya lipondape.
3 Let not him who eateth, despise him that eateth not; and let not him who eateth not, judge him that eateth; for God hath received him.
Mundu alya indu yowe anannyegaye mundu akalya indu yowe, wala jwene akaapinga kulya shindu shina, ananng'ukumule alya indu yowe, pabha a Nnungu bhannjitishiye.
4 Who art thou that judgest the servant of another? To his own lord he standeth or falleth; and he shall be made to stand; for the Lord is able to make him stand.
Ugwe gani ukunng'ukumula ntumishi juka mundu juna? Ajimaga eu agwaga, genego ga Bhakulungwa bhakwe. Numbe shajime, pabha Bhakulungwa shibhannjimishe.
5 One man esteemeth one day above another; another esteemeth every day alike: let each one be fully persuaded in his own mind. He that regardeth the day, regardeth it to the Lord;
Mundu juna paganishiya kuti, lipali lyubha lya mmbone lya tindibhalila punda mobha gana, na juna paganishiya kuti, mobha gowe ganalingana. Bhai kila mundu akagule lunda lwakwe.
6 and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. And he that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth thanks to God; and he that doth not eat, to the Lord he doth not eat, and giveth thanks to God.
Aganishiya kuti lyubha lina lya mmbone kaje, anatenda nneyo kwa ligongo lya kwaakuya Bhakulungwa, na jwene alya kila shalya, analya kwa kwaakuya Bhakulungwa, pabha anakwaatendela eja a Nnungu. Na jwalakwe akalya shalya shina anatenda nneyo kwa ligongo lya kwaakuya Bhakulungwa, na jwalakwe anakwaatendela eja a Nnungu.
7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no one dieth to himself.
Pabha jwakwa mundu munkumbi gwetu alama kwa pinga nnyene, wala jwakwa awa kwapinga nnyene.
8 For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Whether then we live or die, we are the Lord's.
Monaga tunalama, tulama kwa ligongo lya Bhakulungwa, eu tuwaga, tunawa kwa ligongo lya Bhakulungwa. Bhai, monaga tulamaga eu tuwaga, uwe tubhabho Bhakulungwa.
9 For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord both of the dead and the living.
Kwa lyene ligongoli, a Kilishitu bhashinkuwa na yuka, nkupinga bhabhe Bhakulungwa bha bhakotonji na bha bhawilenje.
10 But thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? And thou, too, why dost thou despise thy brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of God.
Kwa nndi mmwe nnakwaukumula apwenu? Eu numbe mmwe kwa nndi nnakwanyegaya apwenu? Pabha uwe tubhowe shitujime mmujo ja shitengu sha ukumu sha a Nnungu.
11 For it is written, “As I live, saith the Lord, to me every knee shall bow, and every tongue shall give praise to God.”
Pabha Mmajandiko Bhakulungwa bhakuti, “Malinga shingulama shino, bhakuti Bhakulungwa, kila mundu shandindibhalile ulungolungo, na kila mundu shakunde kuti nne ni a Nnungu.”
12 So then every one of us will give account of himself to God.
Kwa nneyo, kila mundu munkumbi gwetu, shailugule nnyene kwa a Nnungu.
13 Let us then no longer judge one another; but let this rather be your judgment, not to put a stumbling-block, or an occasion to fall, in a brother's way.
Bhai tunaukumulane, ikabhe tutumbilile kuleka indu ya kunnebhya mmpwetu.
14 I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean in itself; but to him that accounteth anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
Kwa lundana kwangu na Bhakulungwa a Yeshu, kunandenda nimumanye kuti, shakwa shalya shili sha nyata tandubhilepe, ikabheje mundu ashibhonaga shalya shina kuti sha nyata, bhai, kuka jwenejo shene shalyasho sha nyata.
15 For if on account of food thy brother is made to mourn, thou art no longer walking according to love. Do not with thy food destroy him for whom Christ died.
Monaga shimummulaye mmpwenu kuinjika kwa ligongo lya shalya shinkulya, bhai, nshileka kupingana. Shalya shenu shinabhe shiumilo sha kunng'obhya mundu, jubhanng'wilile a Kilishitu.
16 Let not then the blessing which ye enjoy be evil spoken of.
Bhai nnakundanje shindu shinkushibhonanga sha mmbone shinyegaywe.
17 For the kingdom of God is not food and drink, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit;
Kulya na papila nngabha shindu Muupalume gwa a Nnungu, ikabhe ga aki na ulele na angalala kutupegwa naka Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo ni shipinjikwa muupalume gwa a Nnungu.
18 for he who in this matter serveth Christ is well-pleasing to God, and approved by men.
Pabha akwaatumishila a Kilishitu shana nneyo, anakwaanonyeya a Nnungu na anakundwa na bhandunji.
19 Let us then strive to promote peace, and the edification of each other.
Bhai ibhaga nneyo, tukagulile indu ipeleshela ulele na ya tagana ntima.
20 Do not for the sake of food undo the work of God. All things indeed are clean; but that which is pure is evil for that man who eateth so as to be an occasion of sin.
Bhai nnaangabhanye ngulupai jibhabhishile a Nnungu kuka mundu ga shalya. Ikabheje nngabha ya mmbone, mundu jojowe kulya shalya shikuntenda mundu nnjakwe alebhe alyaga shene shalyasho.
21 It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to do anything whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is put in danger of falling, or is made weak.
Mbaya leka kulya nnyama wala ng'wa divai eu tenda shindu shoshowe, sha kunnebhya mpwenu.
22 Thou hast faith; have it to thyself before God. Happy is he who doth not condemn himself in that which he alloweth.
Bhai, shoshowe shinkukulupalila kwa a Nnungu bhenu, nntende shenesho. Mbaya jwene mundu akakwiukumula nnyene, kwa shindu shakushibhona kuti sha aki.
23 But he that doubteth is condemned if he eat, because he doeth it not from faith; but every thing which is not from faith is sin.
Ikabheje mundu akola lipamba, alyaga shalya akuno aliganishiya kuti shangali sha mmbone, anatenda shambi pabha jwangalya kwa kulupalila ngulupai jakwe. Na shindu shoshowe shitendeka gwangali ngulupai, ni yambi.
