1 Timothy 2
1 The first (OR, most important) thing that I urge [you to tell your congregation] is that [Christians] should continually ask [God] for [what they need]. They should also pray to God [for all other people], and they should be thanking [God].
Ncizine vat, nwa ti nworu matiru tiru mine, nliran, ubunun nmong nliran, nin ngodiya isu bara anit vat,
2 Specifically, they should pray for rulers and for all [other people] who (are in important government positions/have authority), in order that [God will help them to rule]. [As God enables the rulers to rule well], we can live very peaceably as we conduct ours lives doing all that God and others consider to be right and proper.
bara agoh nan nale na idi natet adidya, nin woru tisu lisosin limang, nin nnonku kibinai nin ntoltunu liti nbun Kutellẹ.
3 It is good [to pray like that, and] it pleases God, who saves us, when we pray like that.
Ilele imon icineari, nin nimon seru ubun kiti Kutellẹ unan tucu bite.
4 He desires to save everyone. He wants everyone to fully know [and accept] his true [message].
Ullenge na adininsu anit se utucu vat, inin kuru ise uyinu kidegen.
5 He is the [only] one [true] God! And there is [only] one person who talks to God on behalf of people. That person is Christ Jesus, who [himself] is a man!
Tidi nin Kutellẹ kurum, nin nan lisin kitik bit nan Kutellẹ warum, Unite Kristi Yisa.
6 He gave (his [life/himself]) [as a sacrifice] in order to ransom/redeem all [people], which showed at the proper time [that God desires that all people be saved] {[to save all people]}.
Ullenge na awa ni litime utucu vat, uliru nanya kube.
7 As for me, he appointed me to declare [this message] and to be an apostle. I am telling the truth [about God appointing me]. I am not lying! He appointed me to teach the non-Jews that they should believe God’s true message.
Bara nanere, meng litinighe, iwa fereyi unan kadura nin nbellu nliru Kutellẹ. Indin belle kidegen: na kinu ba. Meng unan dursuzu nalumai nanya nyinnu sa uyenu nin kidegen.
8 I desire that in every place [where believers worship], the men who pray publicly [MTY] should be men who are not practicing sin. When they pray, they should not be angry [with anyone] and they should not doubt [that God will answer] their prayers (OR, should not quarrel with anyone).
Ndi nin su nanilime su nliran vat niti, Ighantizin acara alau, na nin tinana nayi ba, na nin manyardan ba.
9 [I would like that] the clothing that women wear be (modest and sensible/proper and appropriate) [DOU]. I want them to not fix their hair in fancy/elaborate ways, nor wear gold [jewelry], nor pearls, nor expensive clothing [in order that they may make themselves attractive].
Nanere tutun na awani su kuyok nin toltunu liti, a ukifu liti a kibinai kicine, na nin titi nke nnit ba, sa nin nizinariya sa imon nwaltu, sa imon nikurfun idia.
10 Instead, they should be doing things that women who (claim to/say that they) worship God should do; that is, they should be doing good deeds.
Na ise nani nin katuwa kacine, (ille imon na icaunari ine kiti nawani anan dortu Kutellẹ).
11 Women must learn to [listen] quietly [during the worship services] and to fully subject themselves [to the leaders of the congregation].
Na uwani piziru uyinu kusari kurum nin toltunu liti.
12 I do not permit women to teach [men spiritual truth publicly], and I do not permit them to have authority over men. Instead, [I desire] that women [listen] quietly [during the worship services].
Na nyinna uwani unan dursuzu kiti ba, sa asọ Udia kitene ngankilime ba, na aso tik.
13 Keep in mind that God made Adam first, and afterwards he made Eve,
Bara iwa burun uken Adamu ari, inin dofino nin Hawawu.
14 and that it was not Adam whom [Satan] deceived. As a result of the woman being deceived, she sinned. She did what God had told her not to do.
Na Adamu ari iwa rusuzu ghe ba, uwanere iwa rusuzu ghe nanya kulapi.
15 But even though she did that, now women will be saved {God will accept women} as they bear children if they continue to trust [God] and if they continue to love others, and if they continue to live in a way that is [more and more] (acceptable to God/like God wants them to), and if they continue to be modest.
Nin nani, abase utucu barra umacu nnono, iwa li ubun nanya nyinnu sa uyenu nin su a ucin ulau nin nonku kibinai.
