1 Thessalonians 3
1 As a result of that, when I could no longer endure [worrying about you], I decided that [Silas and I] would stay behind alone in Athens [city],
Hanki tamagri'ma eme tamegesuna tavesizamo'a, marerigeta manigama nosuta, knarema haniana, Atens kumate manigahune hu'none.
2 and we two sent Timothy [to you. You know that he is] our close associate and also works for God by [proclaiming] the message about Christ. [Silas and I sent him] in order that he would urge you to continue to strongly trust [in Christ].
Ana nehuta nerafu Timoti'a, Anumzamofo eriza ne'mo Kraisi Knare Musenkemofo eriza e'neria ne'mo, eme tamamentinti tamazeri hanavenetino, tamazeri hanaveti kea tamasaminogu hunte'none.
3 We wanted none [of you] to consider turning away from Christ as a result of [people] causing you to suffer. You know that [God has] planned that [we who trust in him will suffer like that when people do that to us who trust in him].
Tagri'ma tavesiana, mago'amotma amama tagrama e'neruna knazankura antahigna osiho. Tamagra antahinaze, tagrikura knazana erigahaze hu'naza vahe mani'none.
4 Remember that when we were present with you, we kept telling you that we would be persecuted {that [people] would cause us to suffer}. And because that is what happened, you know that [what we said] was true!
Na'ankure tamage huta tamagra nema ko'ma mani'neta tamasami vava huta, knazampina ufregahune huta hunonankino, ana knazamo'a, antahinaza kante fore huno evu'ne.
5 [I was] afraid that [Satan], the one who tempts us, had caused you [to stop trusting in Christ. If that had happened], we would have worked uselessly [while we were present with you! So] I sent [Timothy to you] in order to find out whether or not you were [still] trusting [in Christ]. I sent him because I could no longer endure [not knowing (about your spiritual condition/whether or not you were still trusting in Christ]).
E'ina agafare nagrama avega antena manigama nosuna, reramatagamahu ne'moma reramatga huzanku koro nehu'na, tagrama eri'zama tamagripima eri'nona erizamo amnezankna huzanku, tamamentinti eme kenogu nagra Timoti hunte'noe.
6 Now Timothy has just returned to Silas and me from [being with] you, and he has told us the good news that you [still] trust [in Christ] and that you love [him] (OR, [each other]). He told us also that you always happily remember us [and that] you strongly desire that we visit you, just like we strongly desire to visit you.
Hianagi menina Timoti'a tagrite eno, tamagrama tamamentinti nehutma ovesinte avesintema nehaza zankura, musenke eme nerasamino, antahi so'ema humanerantaza zanku'ene, tamagrima tamagenaku nehunankna hutma, tagrima tagenakuma nehaza zankura eme tasamine.
7 My fellow believers, [even though] we are suffering very much [DOU] because of what people are doing to us here, we have been cheered up because [Timothy told us about] your [still] trusting [in Christ].
Ama'na agafare, nenfugta vahe'mo'zama knazama tamiza tatazampima unefronkeno'a, tamagrama tamentintima hu'naza zamo maka knazantifina tazeri hanavenetie.
8 Now we feel very encouraged [IDM] that you continue to strongly [trust] in the Lord [Jesus].
Na'ankure tagrama menima tasimu erita mani'nonana, tamagrama Ramofompi hanavetitama mani'naza zamo higeta tasimura erita mani'none.
9 (We cannot thank God adequately for [what he has done for] you!/How can we thank God enough for [what he has done for] you?) [RHQ] We greatly rejoice concerning you [when we pray to] our God!
Tagra Anumzamofo susu hunentone. Tamagrama hazazamo higeta, Anumzamofo avurera tagra musena nehune.
10 We constantly [HYP] and fervently/earnestly ask [God] that [we will be able] to visit you [SYN] and that [we will be able] to help you to trust [in Christ/God] more strongly!
Hanine zagenena tamavufima tamagezankura nunamuna hanavetita huvava nehuta, tamamentintifima atupama hu'nesazana, tagra tamazeri hanavetigahune.
11 We pray to God, our Father, and to our Lord Jesus, that they will (clear the way/make it possible) so that we can return to you.
Menina tagri Nerafa Anumzamo'ene, Jisasi Rantimokea vanuna kana taveri hanaketa tamagritega vugahune.
12 As for you, we pray that the Lord Jesus will help you to love each other and other people more and more, just like we continue loving you more and more.
Tagri'ma tavesiana, Ramo'a vahe'ma avesinte avu'ava zana eri aviteramantesigetma aviteta maninetma, magoke magokemotma ovesinte avesinte nehutma, tamagri'ma tamavesi neramantonaza hutma, ana miko vahera tamavesizmanteho.
13 We pray that our Lord Jesus will strengthen your resolve to do what pleases God (OR, strengthen you spiritually). We pray that God our Father will enable you to conduct your lives in a way that is pure and that no one can justly criticize, so that when Jesus comes back to earth accompanied by all those who belong to him, he will be pleased with you.
E'ina hu'neankino, Jisasi'a maka Naga'anema esia knarera tamazeri hanavetina, maka hazenketamia omnena, ruotge huta nemanita, manifatgo nehuta, Anumza Nafatimofo avurera hazenketamia omanegahie. Tamage.
