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].
Pamberi pa goseri, mmugambiri Mlungu gamfira. Mumluwi Mlungu na muwaluwiri wantu wamonga na mlongi mayagashii Mlungu toziya ya wantu woseri.
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.
Muwaluwireni wafalumi kwa Mlungu, su tulikali makaliru gajii na ga ponga pamuhera na kumguwira Mlungu na mgenderanu mheri.
3 It is good [to pray like that, and] it pleases God, who saves us, when we pray like that.
Kuluwa kwa Mlungu ashi ndo shitwatira shiherepa na shashimfiriziya Mlungu mlopoziya gwetu,
4 He desires to save everyone. He wants everyone to fully know [and accept] his true [message].
ndo yakafira wantu woseri walopoziwi na wawezi kuumana unakaka.
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!
Toziya kwana Mlungu yumu hera, na kwana yumu hera yakawakolaniziya wantu na Mlungu, ndo ulii muntu Kristu Yesu,
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]}.
yakalilaviyiti mweni su kawakomboli wantu woseri. Awu uweriti ndo ulanguziwu wasokiti kwa shipindi pashisoka, handa Mlungu kafira kuwalopoziya wantu woseri.
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.
Toziya ntumitwi neni nweri ntumintumi na mfunda gwa wantu yawawera ndiri Wayawudi su nuwubweri ujumbi wa njimiru na unakaka. Neni mpaya ndiri kumbiti ntakula nakaka.
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).
Su poseri pamuliwona mumluwi Mlungu, nfira wapalu yawatenda yagamfiriziya Mlungu wanyasuri mawoku gawu pawaluwa pota maya ama likakatala.
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].
Viraa virii nuwafira wadala muweri na mahala mvali nguwu zyazijimilika palongolu pa wantu kwa kulilemba ndiri kwa ulembu wa malingisi ga kupota viri pota kwa vintu vya zahabu na lulu ama nguwu zya beyi nkulu.
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.
Kumbiti kwa matendu gaherepa ntambu yaifiruwa kwa wadala yawalonga wankumtira Mlungu.
11 Women must learn to [listen] quietly [during the worship services] and to fully subject themselves [to the leaders of the congregation].
Wadala wafiruwa kulikala jiii na kutenda ligoya shipindi sha pawalifunda shisoweru sha Mlungu.
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].
Kumbiti neni numulekiziya ndiri mdala kuwera na uwezu kufunda ama kumkolamlima mpalu, kafiruwa kalikali jii.
13 Keep in mind that God made Adam first, and afterwards he made Eve,
Toziya Adamu wamuwumbiti kwanja, na shakapanu Eva.
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 ndiri yakazyangitwi, kumbiti mdala ndo yakazyangitwi na kawera na vidoda.
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.
Hata hangu, mdala hakalopolwi kupitira kulera wana handa pakasigala munjimiru na mafiliru na unanagala na kulikala weri na wantu.
