< 1 Thessalonians 1 >
1 Paul and Silvanus and Timothy—unto the assembly of Thessalonians in God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ, —favour unto you, and peace!
Nene Pauli na Siliwano na Timoti, tikuvayandikila msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu va ku Tesalonike. Ndi vandu voha vevakumuyupa Chapanga Dadi, na va BAMBU Yesu Kilisitu. Tikuvaganila ubwina wa Chapanga na uteke.
2 We are giving thanks unto God continually, concerning you all, making, mention, in our prayers,
Tikumsengusa Chapanga magono goha ndava yinu mwavoha na kuvakumbuka magono goha mukuyupa kwitu Chapanga.
3 Unceasingly, remembering—your work of faith and labour of love and endurance of hope, of our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father:
Muni, palongolo ya Chapanga Dadi witu, tikumbuka ndi chemwilasa sadika yinu kwa matendu, na uganu winu cheukuvakita muhenga lihengu neju, na chila sadika yitu kwa BAMBU Yesu Kilisitu yanganyugusika.
4 Knowing, brethren beloved by God, your election, —
Valongo timanyili kuvya Chapanga avaganili na avahagwili muvya vandu vaki,
5 How that, our glad-message, came not unto you, in word only, but also in power, and in Holy Spirit, and in much assurance, —even as ye know what manner of men we became unto you, for your sake;
muni lukumbi lwetavakokosili Lilovi la Bwina gavili lepi malovi gene, ndi kwa makakala na kwa Mpungu Msopi, na chakaka kuvya ujumbi wenuwo wavili wachakaka. Mmanyili chatatamili pamonga na nyenye, tatamili kwa kuvatangatila nyenye.
6 And, ye, became, imitators of us, and of the Lord, giving welcome unto the word, in much tribulation, with joy of Holy Spirit;
Nyenye mwalandili luhumu lwitu, mwamyigili BAMBU. Pamonga na mwaviniswi neju, mwapokili ujumbi wenuwo kwa luheku wewihuma kwa Mpungu Msopi.
7 So that ye became an ensample unto all who were coming to the faith, in Macedonia and in Achaia:
Hinu nyenye ndi luhumu lwabwina neju kwa vandu voha vevakumsadika va Makedonia na Akaya.
8 From you, in fact, hath sounded forth the word of the Lord—not only in Macedonia and in Achaia, but, in every place, your faith which is toward God, hath gone forth, so that, no need, have we to be saying anything;
Muni, ndava ya ukangamala winu ujumbi wa BAMBU uyuwaniki lepi ku Makedonia na ku Akaya kwene, ndi sadika ya Chapanga yidandasiki kwoha. Kangi niganili lepi kujova neju,
9 For, they themselves, concerning us, do tell—what manner of entrance we had unto you, and how ye turned unto God from the idols—to be serving a living and true God,
Vandu venavo vevitama patali na nyenye vilongela kuvala lugendu lwitu kwinu na chemwatipokili, ndi chemwalekili chimong'omong'o, na kumhengela Chapanga mweavimumi na wa chakaka,
10 And awaiting his Son out of the heavens—whom he raised from among the dead, —Jesus: Who is to rescue us out of the anger that is coming.
Hinu mkumlindila Mwana waki ahelela kuhuma kunani kwa Chapanga, ndi Yesu, na mwene ndi Chapanga amyukisi kuhuma mu lifwa na mweakutisangula kuhuma muligoga la Chapanga lelibwela.
