Then, speaking very boldly, Paul and Barnabas said [to those Jewish leaders], “[We two] had to speak the message from God [about Jesus] to you [Jews] first [before we proclaim it to non-Jews, because God commanded us to do that.

[People] cannot see what God is like. But ever since he created the world, by means of what he created he has clearly revealed what he is like. He has made clear to everyone that he has always been able to do very powerful things. [Therefore, we should recognize that] God is powerful, [completely different from all that he created]. So no one has a basis for saying, [“We never knew about God].” (aïdios )

Also, they [chose to worship] false [gods] instead (of admitting/of choosing to believe) what is true [about] God.

He did that in order that just like people everywhere inevitably sin, [which results in their] dying [MET, PRS], people everywhere might inevitably experience God’s acting kindly towards them in a way they do not deserve [MET, PRS] by [erasing the record of their sins].

But you have been freed {[God] has freed you} from [letting the desire to] sin control you. You have become [as though you are] [MET] the slaves of God. So now the result is that God has caused you to completely belong to him and, as a result, you will live eternally. (aiōnios )

[What people receive for] sinning [is that they are] eternally separated from God. That is [like] wages that [people receive] [MET]. But what God gives us is a gift.

It was our ancestors, [Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, whom God chose to found our nation]. And, [most importantly], it was from us Israelites that the Messiah received his human nature.

“Or [you should not think inwardly], ‘(Someone will have to go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are!/Who will go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are?)’ [RHQ]” That is to say, someone will have to [go down and] bring Christ up [from there to bring the message of salvation to us.

kange nungajovaghe kuuti, 'veni ilikwingila mu lina?” (kuno kwe kukuntosia uNguluve kuhuma kuvafue.) (Abyssos )
God has declared and proved that all people, [both Jews and non-Jews] [MET], disobey ([him/his laws]). He has declared that because he wants to act mercifully towards us all. (eleēsē )

Do not let anything non-Christian determine how you should act. Instead, let God change your [way of life] by making your way of thinking new, in order that you may know what he wants you to do.

[I desire that by] Jesus Christ [enabling us, we] will forever praise the one who alone is God, who alone is [truly] wise. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
kwa Nguluve unya vukoola mwene, kukilila uYesu Kilisite, kuvisaghe nuvutwa amaka ghooni. Amina (aiōn )
So, do you know [what God thinks] about what [RHQ] people who [IRO] consider themselves to be wise and scholars and philosophers say? [He does not pay attention to what they say, because] [RHQ] he has shown clearly that what unbelievers [think is] [IRO] wise is [not wise at all], but is really foolish. (aiōn )
Alikughi umuunhu unya vukola? Alikughi unyavwimbi? Alikughi unjovaji ughwa kujishetulania iisi? Vuuli u Nguluve nalyasetulinie uvukola vwa iisi iji kuuva vujasu? (aiōn )
I do teach a message that people who are [spiritually] mature [consider to] be wise. But I do not teach a message that unbelievers [consider to be] wise. I also do not teach a message that unbelieving rulers in the world consider to be wise. [What they think about it does not matter], because [some day] (they will lose their power/not be ruling any more). (aiōn )
Lino tujova uvwakyang'haani vwa vaanhu avagoyo, looli navwevwa kyang'haani vwa iisi iji, nambe avatemi avansiki ughu, vanovikila. (aiōn )
Instead, I teach about what God planned wisely [long ago]. It is something that people did not know about previously because [God] did not reveal it previously. But God determined before he created the world that he would greatly benefit us by his wise plan. (aiōn )
Pa uluo tujova uvwakyang'haani vwa Nguluve ughwa lweli vuno vufisime, uvwakyang'haani vuno vufisime u Nguluve alyasalwile yeghukyale unsinkibghwa vwimike vwitu. (aiōn )
None of those who rule this world knew that wise plan. If they had known it, they would not have nailed our wonderful Lord to the cross. (aiōn )
Nakwale ghweeni juno itema unsiki ughu juno akagwile uvwa kyang'haani uvu, heene vasamanyila mu nsiki ghula, nde navalyan'komelile u Mutwa ughwa vwimike. (aiōn )
Some among you think that you are wise because unbelievers thought you were wise previously. Stop deceiving yourselves. [If you really want to be wise, by accepting what God considers to be wise] you should [be willing to let unbelievers consider that you are] foolish [IRO]. (aiōn )
Umuunhu alisyangile mwene, nave jumonga n'kaate mulyumue isaagha kuuti alinuluhala kumasiki agha, avisaghe hweene “N'jasu” apuo peiva nuluhala. (aiōn )
So if [I, Paul, think that by] eating a certain food I might cause a fellow believer to be ruined spiritually, I will never eat such food again. I do not want to cause any fellow believer (to be ruined spiritually/to stop believing in Christ). [And you should] ([do as I do/imitate my example]). (aiōn )
Pauluo, nave ikyakulia kikwambusia pikunkuvasia un'kulu nambe umwanilumbu, nanilalia inyama kange, ulwakuuti nimwambusie unkulu nambe umwanilumbu kughua. (aiōn )
All those things [that happened to our ancestors long ago] are examples for us. [Moses] wrote those things to warn us [who are living at this time which is near the end]. We are the people for whom God has done [the things that he decided to do in] the previous periods of time. (aiōn )
Kange amasio agha ghano ghalyavombike ndavule ikihwani kulyusue. Ghalyalembilue kuuti kukutuvunga usue - twevano tukasaghilue muvusililo vwa pakali. (aiōn )
Death [APO] will not win a victory over us. Death will not be able to hurt us. (Hadēs )
“Ghwe fua, uvulefie vwako vulikughi? Ghwe fua, vulikughi uvuvafi vwako?” (Hadēs )
[Satan, who is] the one [who rules] this world, controls the thoughts of those unbelievers. He prevents them from understanding the message about how wonderful Christ is. [They are not able to understand that] Jesus is like God [in every way]. (aiōn )
ulwakuva kusalula vavuo, uSetano juno ghwe m'baha ghwa iisi iji, akupile uluhala lwa vanonavikumwitika u Yeesu. wimila uvuo, vikunua kukulwagha ulumuli ulwa Mhola inofu ija vuvaha vwa Kilisite, juno ghwe kihwani kya Nguluve. (aiōn )
[I know that] all these troubles that [happen to us in this life are] not significant and will not last forever. [When we think of] the glorious things [that God is preparing] for us [to enjoy] forever [in heaven], all [our suffering now] is not important. (aiōnios )
ulwakuva ulupumuko lwitu lupepe, kange lwa n'siki n'debe vuvule. ulupumuko uluo lukutuling'hanikisia uvuvaha uvwa kuvusila kusila. uvuvaha uvuo vukome kukila, vukutupelela kuvona imhumhuko isi nakiinu. (aiōnios )
That is why we say, “We will not continue thinking about [all the suffering that we] are experiencing now. Even though [we] cannot see [all the things that God has prepared for us in heaven], those are what we should be thinking about.” [That is how we should think], because [all these troubles] that [we(exc)] have [now] will last only a short time. But what [we will have in heaven], what [we] cannot see [now], will last forever. (aiōnios )
ulwakuva natulola vwimila ifinu fino fivoneka, ulwene vwimila ifinu fino nafivoneka. ifinu fino fivoneka fya n'siki n'debe vuvule, looli fino nafivoneka fya jaatu. (aiōnios )
We know that [these bodies] we live in [here in this world are like] [MET] tents. [They are like temporary living/dwelling places]. [So we should not be concerned about what happens to our bodies]. We know that if we are killed {if [someone] kills us}, God will give us [permanent living places. Those permanent living places] [MET] will not be houses that people have made. They [will be new bodies in which we will live forever] in heaven. (aiōnios )
tukagwile kuuti amavili ghiitu kye kyeve kya n'siki n'debe mu iisi muno. neke kyang'hanangike, uNguluve ilikutupeela uvukalo kukyanya uvwa kusila na kusila vuno navuli ndavule ilikaaja lino lijengilue na mavoko gha vaanhu. (aiōnios )
[Those who give willingly and cheerfully will be rewarded like the man about whom] it is written {[about whom] (someone/the Psalmist) wrote} in the Scriptures, He generously [helps others], [he gives to those] who are poor. [God will remember] the good things that he did, [and reward him with] good things forever. (aiōn )
ndavule lilembilue kuuti, Atavwile ikyuma kyake kukuvapeela avakotofu. uvukoola vwake vwa fighono fyoni. (aiōn )
God, who is the Father of our [(inc)] Lord Jesus, and who is the one [whom we should] praise forever, knows that I am not lying [about this]. (aiōn )
uNguluve nu Nhaata ghwa Mutwa Yeesu juno anoghiie kughinisivua ifighono fyoni, akagwile kuutinanijova vudesi. (aiōn )
Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] in order that [he might remove the guilt for] our sins. He did that in order that he might enable us to not [do the evil things that people who do not know him] do. [He did this] because God, who is our Father, wanted it. (aiōn )
jino akihumisie vwimila isambi situ neke kuuti atupoke mu fighono ifi fya vuhosi, kuhumilanila nu lughano lwa Nguluve ghwitu nu Nhaata. (aiōn )
[I pray that people will] praise God forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
kwa mwene vuve vwimike vuno navuli kusila na kusila (aiōn )
[God] will punish eternally those who do what their self-directed natures urge them to do. But those who please [God’s] Spirit will live forever [with God] because of what [God’s] Spirit does for them. (aiōnios )
juno ivyala imbeju jake mu sambi ilitavula uvunangifu, looli juno ivyala imbeju mwa Mhepo ilitavula uvwumi vwa kusila na kusila kuhuma kwa Mhepo. (aiōnios )
[There], Christ is the supreme ruler over every powerful spirit of every level of authority. His rank is much higher than any powerful spirit can receive, not only now, but forever. (aiōn )
Alyam'bikile kukyanya kuvutali na kutema, uvutavulilua, ingufu, vutua, nilitavua lila lino litambulua. Alya m'bikile u Yesu na kwekuuti unsiki ughu looli ku nsiki ghuno ghu kwisa kange. (aiōn )
You were acting in the same [evil] way as those who oppose Christ [MTY] act. That is, you were behaving in the [evil] ways [that Satan wanted you to behave]. He rules over evil spiritual beings that no person can see [MTY]. He is the spirit who now powerfully controls the people who disobey God. (aiōn )
Lukale mu agha kuuti ulwakwasia mukalutile kuling'ana nuvnsiki ughwa iisi iji. ukale muluta kuvingilila untemi ughwa vutavulilua ughwa vulanga. Iiji je mhepo jamwene jula juno ivomba imbombo mu vaana agagalusi. (aiōn )
in order that he might show to everyone at all times in the future that he has acted toward us in an extremely kind way because of what Christ Jesus [did for us]. (aiōn )

and to enable everyone to understand clearly how God accomplished what he planned. God, who created everything, [has now revealed] this message, which he never revealed to anyone before. (aiōn )
Lunoghile kukuvamulika avaanhu vooni vwimila une vutavike vwa Nguluve ughwa kuvusyefu. Uvu vwe vitavike vuno vulyafisilue amaka minga ghano ghakiling'inie, nu Nguluve juno alyapelile ifiinu fyoni. (aiōn )
That is what God had always planned, and it is what he accomplished by what our Lord Jesus [has done]. (aiōn )
Agha ghakale ghahumile kukila uvutavike vwa kuvusila na kusila vuno alyaghukwisikisie mun'kate mwa Kilisite u Yesu u Mutwa ghwitu. (aiōn )
Because of our relationship with Christ Jesus, may all (believers/those who belong to him) praise him forever. (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn )
kwamwene juula kuvisaghe lwimiko n'kate mu lukong'ano na mwa Kilisite Yesu ku fisina fyoni kusila na kusila. Ameni. (aiōn )
You must do this because the fighting that we [believers] do is not only against human beings [SYN]. Instead, we are also fighting against evil spirits who rule and have authority over all that is evil [MET] in the world. And we are fighting against evil spirits who are in heavenly places (OR, everywhere). (aiōn )

[So], praise God our Father forever and ever! Amen! (aiōn )
Lino kwa Nguluve Nhaata ghwitu vuve vwimike vuno navulikusila nakusila. Ameni. (aiōn )
[We did not know this message previously; that is, God] concealed it from [the people who lived in all] the previous ages, but he has now revealed it to his people. (aiōn )
iji je kyang'haani jini jikafisime mu maka minga ni fisina fyoni. neke lino jifunulivue ku viti voni. (aiōn )
[Our Lord Jesus] will forbid them from ever coming near to him and near to the glory which he has [because he is so] powerful (OR, the glory that is manifested by his power). He will cause those people to suffer forever. (aiōnios )
Valapumuka muvutipulua uvwa kusila na kusila pano viva vabagulie nuve Mutwa nuvwimike uvwa ngufu saake. (aiōnios )
Our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God, our Father, loves us and encourages us and causes us to confidently expect [to receive] the eternal things that [he has promised to give to us] as a result of [Christ] acting kindly toward us in a way we did not deserve. (aiōnios )

Yet Christ Jesus acted mercifully to me in order that he might demonstrate [to people that he is perfectly patient with them]. He did that by his being patient with me, one who has sinned worse than everyone else. He wanted what he did for me (to be an example/to demonstrate his patience) to people who would [later] believe in him, and as a result would live forever. (aiōnios )
kuuti, vwimila une ahufie ulugudo lwake lwooni. pe niive kighwani kuvano vilikumwitika na kukupila uvwumi uvwa kuvusila kisila. (aiōnios )
I desire that people will honor and praise the only [true] God forever! Even though no one can see him, he is the King who rules for all time, who will never die! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn )

Try earnestly and with all your energy/strength [MET] to live in accordance with what you believe. [Continue to do your tasks well in order that] you will know for sure that you will live eternally. Remember that [God] chose you to [live with him], and that when many elders were listening you said strongly ([what you believe/that you trust in Christ]). (aiōnios )

He is the only one who will never die, [and he lives in heaven surrounded by] light [that is so bright that] no one can approach it! He is the one whom no person has ever seen and whom no person is able to see! My desire is that all people will honor him and that he [will rule] powerfully [MTY] forever! (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōnios )

Tell [the believers] who are rich here in this present world that they should not be proud, and that they should not trust in their many [possessions], because they cannot be certain [how long they will have them]. Teach them that instead of [trusting in their wealth, they should trust] in God. He is the one who generously gives us everything we have in order that we may enjoy it. (aiōn )

[God] saved us and chose us to conduct our lives in a pure way. It was not our doing good deeds/actions [that caused him to do this for us—something] that we did not deserve. Instead, before (time began/he created the world) he purposed/planned to [be kind to us] as a result of what Christ Jesus [would do for us]. (aiōnios )
Gwhe Nguluve juno alyatupokile kange na pi hutukemelea ku lukemelo ulwitike. Nakavombile ndiki kuling`ana nhi mbombo siitu looli kuling`ana nhu lusungu nhi mbombo ja mweene jujuo. Alyatupelile iisi sooni mwa kilisile Yesu ye ghukyaale unsiki pitengula. (aiōnios )
Therefore I [willingly] endure all [that I am suffering] for the sake of those [whom God has] chosen. [I do this] in order that Christ Jesus will save them, too, and that they will be forever with [him in the] glorious [place where he is]. (aiōnios )
Pauluo, nikuguda nhisii sooni vwimila vwa vaala vanno u Nguluve avasalwile, ulwakuti vope kange vupile uvupoki vunovulimwa kiliste Yesu palikimo nhu vwitike uvwa kusila nhakusila. (aiōnios )
[I say that] because Demas has left me. He wanted very much [the good things that he might enjoy] [MTY] in this world [right now], and so he went to Thessalonica [city]. Crescens [went to serve the Lord] in Galatia [province], and Titus went to Dalmatia [district]. (aiōn )
Ulwakuva u Dema anilekile. Ajighanile iisi ija liimo kange alutile kwa Thesalonike, khu kreseni alyalutile khu Galatia, kange u Tito alyalutile khu dalmatia. (aiōn )
[Therefore, I am sure that] the Lord will rescue me from everything that is truly evil and will bring me safely to heaven, where he rules. Praise him forever! (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn )
U Mtua ikunibusia khu mbombo sooni isa vuhosi kange nakukumka vwimila uvwa vutua vwamweene ughwa kukyanya. Uvwitiki vuve kwamweene kisila kusila na kusila. Ameni (aiōn )
[As a result of my doing these things, his people] confidently expect that God will cause them to live forever. God, who never lies, promised before he created the world that [his people] would live forever. (aiōnios )
valinuluhuvio ulwa vumi uvwa kisila na kusila vuno uNguluve alyalaghile kuhuma iisi ye jikyale kupelua umwene naijova uvudesi. (aiōnios )
God teaches/tells us [PRS] how to stop doing what he dislikes, and to stop desiring the things that (ungodly people/people who habitually do things that do not please God) desire [MTY]. He wants us to control our behavior and to do what is right and to do what pleases him while we live in this present age/time. (aiōn )
lutukuvulanisia kukukala kwa kulolelela, nikyang'ani, namusila sino sa Nguluve mun'siki ughu. (aiōn )
He wanted to erase the record of our sins even though we did not deserve that, and he wanted us to receive all that [God desires] to give us. [These are the things that we] confidently expect to receive when we live [with him] eternally. (aiōnios )
akavombile ndikio neke kuti, tungave tuvalilue ikyang'ani kulusungu lwake. tuvisaghe vahangilanisi mukyang'ani vwa vwumi vwa kusila nakusila. (aiōnios )
Perhaps the reason that [God permitted] Onesimus to be separated from {to leave} you for a little while was that [he would believe in Christ, and as a result] you would have him (back/with you) forever! (aiōnios )
pamo uNguluve akam'busisie uOnesimo kulyumue un'siki n'debe, neke pambele uuve nu mwene jaatu. kutengulila lino un'kami ghako ujuo nan'kami lwene, (aiōnios )
But now when this final age [is beginning], God has communicated to us [just once] by means of what (his Son/the man who was also God) [said and did. God] appointed him in order that he would possess everything [that truly belongs to God. God also appointed] him in order that he would create the universe. (aiōn )
Looli mufighono ifi fino tulinafyope, uNguluve ajovile nusue vwimila u Mwana, juno akam'bikile kuva vuhaasi vwa fiinu fyoni, kukilila umwene alyapelile ilisi. (aiōn )
But on the other hand, [in the Scriptures it is written that God said] this to his Son: You [(sg)] who are [also] God will rule forever [MTY], and you will reign righteously over your kingdom [MTY]. (aiōn )
Looli ulwakuuti uMwana ijova, “Ikitengo kyako ikya vutua, Nguluve, kya kyavusila kusila. Ulukongoja lwa vutua vwako lwe lukongojo lwa vugholofu. (aiōn )
And he also said [to Christ what the Psalmist wrote] in another Scripture passage, You are a priest eternally just like Melchizedek was a priest. (aiōn )
Lulivule ijova kange ikisala ikinge, “Uve ulin'tekesi ghwa kuvusila ulwakuti mukihwani kya Melkizeki.” (aiōn )
By becoming (all [that] God intended him to be/perfect), [he has now] become fully qualified [to be our Supreme Priest. As a result, he is the one who saves] eternally all who obey him. (aiōnios )
Akakwilanila musila iji akavombeka ku vaanhu vooni juno ikumwitika vwimila vwa vwavuke uvwa kuvusila kusila, (aiōnios )
[I am referring to the teaching about what] various [Jewish and Christian] rituals for purifying people [signify. I am referring to the teaching about how elders enable people to receive spiritual gifts by] laying hands [on them] [MTY]. [I am referring to the teaching that God will] ([cause] those who have died to live again/raise people from the dead). And [I am referring to the teaching that God] will judge [some people and punish them] eternally. (aiōnios )
nambe ulwalo lwa mbulanisio sa lwofugho, napikuvavikila amavoko uvusyuke vwa vufue, nuvuhighi vwa kuvusila kusila. (aiōnios )
They have experienced that God’s message is good. And by what they have experienced [now], they know how [God will work] powerfully in the future. If those people reject [the message about Christ], it will not be possible for anyone to persuade them to turn away from their sinful behavior again! (aiōn )
kange vano vakavonjile uvunono vwa lisio lya Nguluve ni ngufu sa nsiki ghuno ghukwisa, (aiōn )
Jesus went [into God’s presence] ahead of us [(inc)] to [help] us when he became a Supreme Priest eternally in the way that Melchizedek was a Supreme Priest. (aiōn )
UYesu akingile pa kimenyule kilandavule umulongosi ghwitu, angavombeka kuva n'tekesi m'baha hadi kuvusila kusila pambele pa vutavike vwa Melkizedeki. (aiōn )
[We know this] since [God] confirmed it in [the Scripture passage in which he said to his Son], You [(sg)] are a priest eternally just like Melchizedek was a priest. (aiōn )
Lilno amalembi gha vwolesi vwimila umwene: “Uve ulintekesi kuvusila na kusila pambele pa kihwanikisio kya Melikizedeki.” (aiōn )
However, when he [appointed Christ to be a priest], it was by these words that [the Psalmist wrote in Scripture]: The Lord has solemnly declared [to the Messiah], —and he will not change his mind— “You will be a priest forever!” (aiōn )
Looli u Nguluve akatolile ikijigho unsiki ghuno akajovile vwimila u Yesu, Untwa ijighile nangabadilisie amasaghe gha mwene.' uve uli ntekesi kuvusila na kusile.” (aiōn )
But because [Jesus] lives eternally, he will continue to be a Supreme Priest forever. (aiōn )
Looli u lwakuva uYesu ikukala kuvusila nakusila, uvutekesi vwa mwene navubadilika. (aiōn )
[We need a Supreme Priest like] him, because in the laws [that God gave Moses] [PRS] the ones who would be appointed to be priests would be men who tended [to sin easily]. But [God] solemnly [declared] [PRS] after [he had given] his laws [to Moses] that [he would appoint] (his Son/the man who is also God) [to be a Supreme Priest. Now] ([his Son/the man who is also God]) has forever become all that God intends him to be. (aiōn )
Kundaghilo ikuvasalula avaanhu ava votevote kuva vatekesi vavaha, looli ilisio lya lujigho lino likisile pmbele pa ndaghilo, akansalua u Mwana, juno akavombilue kuva nkwilanisi ghwa kuvusila kusila. (aiōn )
[When a Supreme Priest goes into the inner room in the tent each year, he takes] goats’ blood and calves’ blood [to offer as a sacrifice]. But Christ did not [do that. It was as though] he went into that very holy place only once, taking his own blood with him. By doing that, he eternally redeemed us. (aiōnios )
Najilyale ku danda ja mhene nambe ngwada looli kudanda ja mwene jujuo kuuti u Kilisite ingile mukimenyule ikyimike fijo ng'haning'hani ku voni na na kukutuvonia uvupoki vwitu vwa kuvusila na kusila. (aiōnios )
[So, because we know what] Christ [accomplished when] his blood flowed [when he died for us] [PRS, MTY], we will be very certain that we are not guilty [of having] done those things [that those who are spiritually] dead do. [As a result], we can serve God, who is all-powerful. [The priests always offer to God animals] with no defects. Similarly, when Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] to God, he was sinless [MET]. He did that as a result of [God’s] eternal Spirit [helping him]. (aiōnios )
Nave kwekukila kyongo idanda ja Kilisite jino jikilila uMhepo wa kuvusila kusila alihumisie jujuo kisila mawaa kwa Nguluve, kusuka uludonyo lwitu kuhuma mu mbumbo sino sifuile kum'bombela uNguluve umwumi? (aiōnios )
[By] dying [for us], [Christ] ([redeemed/] free from the penalty for their sins) even those who disobeyed the [conditions of] (OR, [during the time of]) the first covenant. So, [because] no [one could be made perfect by obeying the old covenant], now Christ establishes [between God and people] a new covenant. He does that in order that those whom God has chosen may eternally have [the blessings that God] has promised them. (aiōnios )
Pauluo, uKilisite mitike ghwa agano imia ulu vwimila vwa vufue vuvalekile uvwavuke vooni vano va agano lya kwasia kuhuma muvuhihi vwa nyivi save, neke kuuti vooni vano vakemelilue nu Nguluve neke vupile ulifingo lwa vuhaasi vuvanave vwabkuvusila kusila. (aiōnios )
[If that were so], he would have needed to suffer [and shed his blood] repeatedly since [the time when God] created the world. But instead, in this final age, [Christ] has appeared once in order that by sacrificing himself he could cause [that people] no longer will be [punished for their] sins. (aiōn )
ndavula anala jilyale lweli, nave jisava lasima kwa mwene kupumusivua kakinga kyongo kuvutengulilo vwa vwasio vwa iisi. Looli lino mala kamo kufika kuvusilo vwa maka ghano akasetulile kuvusiabinyivi kwa dhahibu yake mwenyewe. (aiōn )
It is because we trust in God that we understand that he formed the universe by commanding [it to exist]. The result is that the things that we see were not made from things that already existed. (aiōn )
Ku lwitiko tukagula kuuti iisi jilya pelilue kululaghilo lwa Nguluve, neke kuuti kila kino kivoneka nakikatendalue kuhumilanila ni finu fino fikale fivoneka. (aiōn )
Jesus Christ [is] the same now as he was previously, and he will be the same forever. (aiōn )
UYesu Kilisite ghwe mwene pamihe, umusyughu, na kuvusila kusila. (aiōn )
Jesus [provides for us], [protects us, and guides us as] a great shepherd does for his sheep [MET]. And God, who gives us [inner] peace, brought our Lord Jesus back to life. By doing that, God ratified his eternal covenant with us by the blood [that flowed from Jesus when he died on the] cross. (aiōnios )
Lino uNguluve ghwa lutengano, juno akavaletile kange kuhuma kuvafue un'diimi um'baha ughwa Ng'oloo, Mutwa ghwitu Yesu, kudanda ja agano lya kuvusila kusila, (aiōnios )
So I pray that God will equip you with everything good [that you need in order] that you may do the things that he desires. May he accomplish in our lives whatever he considers pleasing as a result of Jesus Christ [equipping us]. May Jesus Christ be praised forever. (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn )
Ikuvapela ingufu ku mbombo soni inofu kuvomba ulughano lwake, angavombe imbombo mun'kate mulyusue jino nofu ja kumunoghela pa maaso pa mwene, kukilila uYesu Kilisite, kwamwene vuve vwimike kuvusila na kusila. Ameni. (aiōn )
[Just like a fire damages a forest] [MET], when we say things that are evil, [we harm many people]. What we say [MTY] reveals that we are very evil. What we say contaminates/defiles everything that we think and do [PRS, MET]. [Just like a flame of fire easily] causes [the whole surrounding area] [MET] to burn, what we say [MTY] can cause [others] to want to do evil. It is the devil himself [MTY] who causes us to say evil things. (Geenna )
Ulumili lwope mwoto, vumemile uvuvivi vuno vuli papinga ulumili kilungo kimo mufilungo fyoni ifya mbiili, niki lupelela umunhu ghwoni kuuva muhosi. lunanginie kunyanja uvwumi vyonivyoni vwa muunhu ku mwoto ghuno naghusila lusiku. (Geenna )
[I ask you to do this, because you now have] a new life [MET]. It was not [by means of] something that will perish that you received this new life. Instead, it was [by means of] something that will last forever; that is, by believing the life-giving and enduring message of God. (aiōn )
Muholilue vupia, nakwekuti kuholua kim'bili ghuno ghufua ulwene muholilue kuuva nu vwumi uvusila kusila, mungufu isalisio lya Nguluve ilyafighono fyoni. (aiōn )
but God’s message endures/lasts forever. This message [that endures/lasts] is the message [about Christ] that was proclaimed to you. (aiōn )
looli ilisio lya Nguluve lijigha kisila kusila lusiku.” Ili lye lisio lino je mola jino jipulisivue kulyumue. (aiōn )
Those who speak [to the congregation] should do that as though they are speaking the [very] words of God. Those who do kind things to others should do it with the strength that God gives them, in order that God may be honored by all this {that all this may honor God} as Jesus Christ [enables us to do it. I pray that we will] praise [God] (OR, [Jesus]) and allow him [to rule over us] forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
U munhu juno ipulisia, amasio ghake ghavisaghe ndavule agha Nguluve, ghwope juno itanga avanhu, avatangaghe mungufu sino apelilua nu Nguluve, kuuti u Nguluve aghinisivuaghe mu soon vwimila u Yesu Kilisite. Uvuvaha ni ngufu fili nu mwenemwene fighono fyoni. Amen. (aiōn )
God is the one who kindly helps us in every [situation], and [he is the one] who chose us to share his eternal glory/greatness [in heaven] because of our relationship with Christ. [And] after you have suffered for a while [because of things that people do to harm you], he will remove your spiritual defects/imperfections, he will strengthen you [spiritually] [DOU], and he will support you [emotionally]. (aiōnios )
Neke kya mupumuike munsiki n'debe, u Nguluve ghwa vumofu vwoni, juno alyavakemelile mwingile muvuvaha vwake uvwauvwa kuvusila kusila mwa Kilisite, ikuvanosia nakuvapela ingufu. (aiōnios )
[I pray/desire that] he will [rule] powerfully forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn )
U Nguluve atemaghe ifighono fyoni. Amen. (aiōn )
and [God] will very wholeheartedly welcome you into the place where our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will rule [his people] forever. (aiōnios )
pe pano mukujikavila uvwinga vwa mulyango ghwa kwingilila muVutwa vwa kusila na kusila uvwa Mutwa nu mpoki ghwitu uYesu Kilisite. (aiōnios )
God destroyed [LIT] the angels who sinned. He threw them into the worst place in hell and imprisoned them [there] in darkness in order to keep them there until he judges [and punishes them]. (Tartaroō )
ulwakuva uNguluve naakavalekile avanya Mhepo vano vakasyetung'hiine pe akavatagha... neke vapinyue mu fipunyua kuhanga ikighono kya kuhighua kyande kivisile. (Tartaroō )
[Instead, live in such a manner that you] experience more and more our Savior Jesus Christ being kind [to you], and that you get to know him [better and better]. 2 Peter 3:18b [I pray/desire that Jesus Christ] will be honored both now and forever! (aiōn )
pepano mukulaghe mu vumosi nu vumanyi vwa Mutwa nu m'poki ghitu uYesu Kilisite. kange uvwimike vuli nu mwene lino nifighono fyoni. (aiōn )
Because he came here [to the earth] and we have seen him, we proclaim to you clearly that the one whom we have seen is the [one who] has always lived. He was [previously] with his Father in heaven, but he came to live among us. (aiōnios )
Na vula vwuumi vulyavombilue kutambulua pa vuelu, kange tuvwaghile, na kukuvwoleka, na kupulisia uvwumi uvwa kuvusila na kusila, vuno vuno vulyale kwa Nhaata neke vulyavombilue kutambulua kulyusue. (aiōnios )
The [godless people in] the world [MTY], along with what they desire, will disappear, but those who do what God wants [them to do] will live forever! You know that it is now the final period of this age when there are liars who deny that Jesus is God’s Chosen One. But you have the power of God’s Spirit and you know what is true and what is false. So continue to live according to the true message that you heard when you began to believe in Christ, in order that you may continue to live united both to God’s Son and to the Father. (aiōn )
Lisi palikimo nu vunoghelua vwake fikila. Looli umuunhu juno ivomba sino ikeela u Nguluve ujuo alivwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila. (aiōn )
And what God told us is that [he will cause us] to live forever! (aiōnios )
Mu uluo tuva nu vwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila vuno u Kilisite alyatulaghile kukutupeela. (aiōnios )
Those who hate [any of] their fellow believers, [God considers] [MET] them [to be] murderers. And you know that no murderer has eternal life. (aiōnios )
Umuunhu ghwe ghwoni jula juno ikun'kalalila unyalukolo ghwa mwene m'budi. Mukagwile kuuti uvwumi uvwa kuvusila na kusila navukukala mun'kate mwa m'budi. (aiōnios )
This is what [God] says [to us]: “I have given you eternal life!” We will live forever if we have a close relationship with his Son. (aiōnios )
Uvwolesi vwe uvu — kuuti u Nguluve atupelile uvwumi vwa kuvusila nakusila, kange uvwumi uvu vulimun'kate mwa mwanake. (aiōnios )
I have written this [letter] to you who believe that Jesus is [MTY] (God’s Son/the one who is also God) in order that you may know that you have eternal life. (aiōnios )
Nivalembile agha kuuti mukagule mulinuvwumi vwa kuvusila kusila — umue mwevano mukalyitike ilitavua lya mwana ghwa Nguluve. (aiōnios )
We also know that (God’s Son/the one who is also God) has come [to us], and [we know] that he has enabled us to know God, the one who is really/truly God. So now we have a close relationship with [God because] we belong to Jesus Christ, the one who is the (Son of/man who is also) God. Jesus Christ is truly God, and [he is the one who enables us to have] eternal life. (aiōnios )
Looli tukagwile kuuti umwana ghwa Nguluve isile atupelile uvukagusi, kuuti tun'kagule umwene juno ghwa kyang'haani nakuuti tulimu'kate mwa mwene jujuo ughwa kyang'haani, kange umwanake u Yesu Kiliste. Ghwe Nguluve ughwa kyang'haani nhu vwumi uvwa kuvusila na kusila. (aiōnios )
All of us [believe God’s] true message. It is in our ([inner beings/hearts]) and we will continue [to believe it] forever! (aiōn )
Tuvaghanile ulwakuva tuvakagwile mu lweli jino jpalikimo jilikukala n'kate jiitu palikimo nusue ifighono fyoni. (aiōn )
And there were [many] angels to [whom God assigned/gave positions of authority in heaven]. But many did not continue to rule with authority [in those positions]. Instead, they abandoned the place that [God] gave them to live [in heaven]. So God has put those angels in chains forever in the darkness [in hell. They will stay there] until the great day when [God] will judge [and punish] them. (aïdios , questioned)
Navanymhola vano navakalolelile uvwandilo vwave. neke vakaghaleka amakaja ghavo amanono uNguluve akavavikile mufipinywa fya kusila nakusila, mun'kate mung'isi, neke kuti ikighonovahighue ikighono kila. (aïdios )
Similarly, the people who lived [MTY] in Sodom and Gomorrah [cities] and the nearby cities committed sexual immorality. They sought all kinds of sexual relations that differ [from what God permits. So God destroyed their cities. What happened to those people and those angels] shows that [God will] punish [people, such as the ones who teach false doctrine], in the eternal fire [of hell]. (aiōnios , questioned)
Ndavule isodoma ni ni gomora namakaaja ghanoghakasyungwite ghano ghakakjingisie ghaghuo muvuhosi nakulutila ulunoghelua ulwakwanda. vakavinike hene kighwani kya vala vano vipumuka mulupumuko lwa mwoto ghuno naghusila nakusila. (aiōnios )
They are [restless] [MET], [like] the pounding waves of the ocean. [Just like] waves [produce foul-smelling] foam on the shore, [those teachers of false doctrine do] shameful [MTY] [deeds. We cannot depend/rely on them to show us how to conduct our lives] [MET], [just like we cannot depend/rely on] (meteors/falling stars) [to show us the way when we travel]. [God] has reserved intense darkness for them forever [in hell]. (aiōn , questioned)
(parallel missing)
Keep conducting your lives in [a way that is appropriate for those whom] God loves. Keep constantly expecting that our Lord Jesus Christ will [act] mercifully toward you. Keep expecting that until [the time when we begin] living eternally [with him]. (aiōnios )
mujitunzaghe mulughano lwa nguluve napighula ulusungu lwa Mutwa ghwitu uYesu Kilisite fino akuvapela uvukafu uvwamaka ghoni. (aiōnios )
He is the only true God. He has saved us as a result of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for us]. God was glorious and great and mighty and he [ruled] with great authority before time began. [He is still like that], and [he will remain like that] forever! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn )
kwa Nguluve mwene u'poki kukilila uYesu Kilisite uMutwa ghwitu, uvwimike vuve kwamwene. uvuvaha, uvuwesia ni ngufu kabla ja na lino na maka ghoni Ameni (aiōn )
He is [the one who] has caused us to become people whose lives God rules, and he has made us to be priests [who serve] God his Father. [As a result of this, we acknowledge that] Jesus Christ is eternally divine and eternally powerful. (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn )

I am the living one. Although I died, I am alive again and will live forever! I have [the power to cause people] to die, and I have authority over the place where all the dead people [are]. (aiōn , Hadēs )
nejuno kwenile. Nilyafwille, lolagha, nikukala kusila kusila! Kange nilinaso ifungulo isa kuvufue na kuvulugu. (aiōn , Hadēs )
The living [creatures praise], honor [DOU], and thank the one who sits on the throne, the one who lives forever. (aiōn )
Amasiki ghooni ifipelua ifinya vwumi pano vakahumisie uvwimike, uvwoghopua na pikwoghopaua, naa pihongesia pavulongolo pajuno alikalile pakitengo ikio ikya vutua, umwene juno ikukala kisila na kusila jatu, (aiōn )
Whenever they do that, the 24 elders (prostrate themselves/kneel down) before the one who sits on the throne, and they worship him, the one who lives forever. They lay their crowns in front of the throne and sing: (aiōn )
avaghogholo ifijigho fiivili na vaane vakafughime vavuo pavulongolo pa mwene pajuno akikalile ikitengo ikya vutua. Vakinamagha pasi pasjuno ikukala kisila na kusila jaatu na kutagha pasi ingeela sivanave pavulongolo pa kitengo ikya vutua vakatisagha, (aiōn )
I also heard every creature that is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the ocean, every creature in all those places, saying (OR, singing): “We must forever praise and honor the one who sits on the throne and the one who is like a lamb, May they reign with complete power forever!” (aiōn )

This time I saw a pale horse [come out]. The one who sat on it is named ‘[The one who causes] death [PRS]’, and [the one that is named ‘The place where dead people go’] accompanied him. [God] gave them authority over one quarter of the people on earth to incite them to kill each other with weapons [SYN], and also authority to kill them (by [causing them to] starve, by [their causing them to become] sick from epidemics, and by [their causing them to be attacked by] wild animals. (Hadēs )

They said, “May it be so! [We(exc)] praise, thank, and honor [you], our [(exc)] God, forever! [We(exc) acknowledge] that you are completely wise, the powerful one, who is forever able to accomplish everything he wants to. (May everyone acknowlege that it is so!/Amen!)” (aiōn )

The fifth angel blew his trumpet. Then I saw [an evil angel. He was like] a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. He was given {[Someone] gave him} the key to the shaft [that descended] ([to] the underworld/[to] the deep dark pit). (Abyssos )
Kange umunyamola ghwa vuhano akakuva ulukelema lwa mwene. Nilwa jaghile inondue kuhuma kukyanya jino jilyaghuile mu iisi. Inondue jikapelilue ifungulo sa mwina lino likalungime ku mwina ghusila vusililo. (Abyssos )
When he opened that shaft, smoke arose from it like smoke from a huge burning furnace. The smoke prevented [anyone from seeing] the sky and the light of the sun. (Abyssos )
Alyadindwile u mwina ghuno naghudughile, nilyosi likatogha kukyanya likatavine kuhuman'kate mu lina heene lyoosi kuhuma mu mbembelo imbaha. Ilijuva nu vulanga filyahambuike fikava ng'iisi vwimila vwa lyosi lino lilyahumile ku mwina. (Abyssos )
The king who ruled over them was the angel of the underworld. His name in the Hebrew language is Abaddon. In the Greek language it is Apollyon. [Both of] those names [mean ‘Destroyer’]. (Abyssos )
Valyale na ghope hwene n'tua pakyanya pa vanyamola ava mwina ilya kuvusila kusila. Ilitavua lya lyeene mu Kiebrania lye li Abadoni, na mukiyunani ilitavua lya mweene Appolioni. (Abyssos )
and he asked the one who lives forever, the one who created heaven and everything that is in it, [who created] the earth and everything that is in it, and [who created] the ocean and everything that is in it, to affirm that what he said was true. [He said that he] would surely no longer delay [what he had planned to do]. (aiōn )

When they have finished proclaiming [to people the message from God], the beast that comes up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit) will attack them, overcome them, and kill them. (Abyssos )
Unsiki gjuno viliva vamalile uvwolesi vuvanave, kila ikikanu nikiila kino kihuma mumwina ghuno ghusila kuvusila ivomba uvulugu vuvanave. Ikuvalefia na kukuvabuda. (Abyssos )
Then the seventh angel blew [his trumpet]. Angels in heaven shouted loudly, “Our Lord [God] and the Messiah [whom he has appointed] can now govern [everyone in] [MTY] the world, and they will continue to rule people forever!” (aiōn )
Kange umunyamola ghwa lekela lubale akatovile ulukelema lwa mwene, nilisio ilikome lilyajovile kukyanya na kuuti, “Untua ghwa iisi vwa vatua umitua ghwitu nu ghwa Kilisite ghwa mwene. Ilitema kuvusila nakusila.” (aiōn )
I saw another angel that was flying between the sky and heaven. He was bringing [God’s] eternal good message [to earth], in order that he might proclaim it to people who live on the earth. He will proclaim it to every nation, [to every] tribe, [to speakers of every] language [MTY], and [to every] people-[group]. (aiōnios )
Nikamwaghile unyamola ujunge ijumba pa kate nakate pa vulanga, jujuo unyamola ughwa kukyanya unyamola unofu kupulisia vano vikukala mu iisi kukila ku kipelela, kisina, njoovele na vaanhu. (aiōnios )
The smoke [from the fire] that torments them will rise forever. [They will] be tormented {[God will] torment them} continually, day and night. [That is what will happen to] the people who worship the beast and its image and who allow its name to be marked on them {allow [its agent] to mark them with its name}.” (aiōn )
Nilyosi lya vuvafi vuvanave likavuka kuluta kuvusila na kusila, navalyale nulupumo pamwisi na pakilo - vala vano vikufunya ku kikanu na kukihwaani kyake umuunhu ghweni juno alyupile ikivalilo ikya litavua lya mwene. (aiōn )
One of the four living [creatures] gave [each of] the seven angels a golden bowl, filled with [wine/liquid. That wine/liquid symbolized] that God, who lives forever, would severely punish [rebellious people]. (aiōn )
Jumo ughwa vala vano vumi vanne akahumia kuvanyamola lekela lubale ni bskuli lekela lubale isa sahabu sno silyamemile ilyojo lya Nguluve vano vikukala kusila na kusila. (aiōn )
The beast that you saw [lived] previously. Eventually God will destroy him, but now he is dead. He is [about to] come up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit). [When] the beast who had previously lived, and who then had died, reappears, the people who live on the earth will be amazed. [They are people whose] names were not in the book in which are written the names of people [who will] have eternal life. [The angels have been writing those names in a list] (from the beginning of the world/from the time when the world began). (Abyssos )
Ing'anu jino ukajivwene pwejikale, nakwejili kange lino, looli jiling'anisie kuhuma mu lina linlo lisila vusililo. Kange jighendelelaghe kuvomba uvunangi.

(Abyssos )
[The crowd] shouted a second time saying: (Hallelujah!/Praise God!) The smoke of the fire that is burning the cities will rise forever! (aiōn )
Ulwa vuviili vakaati, “Haleluya! Lyosi lylihuma kwa mwene kisila na kusila.” (aiōn )
The beast and the false prophet were captured {[He] captured the beast and the false prophet}. The false prophet is the one who had performed miracles in the beast’s presence. By doing that he had deceived the people who had accepted the beast’s mark [on their foreheads] and who worshipped its image. The beast and the false prophet were thrown {[He] threw the beast and the one who falsely said that he spoke messages that came directly from God} alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. (Limnē Pyr )
Ing'anu jikakolua nu m'bili ghwa jene ghwa vudesi juno akavombile ifidegho nuvutavulilua vwa mweene.

(Limnē Pyr )
I saw an angel coming down from heaven. He had the key to the deep dark pit, and he was carrying a large chain in his hand. (Abyssos )
Kange nikamwagha umunyamola ikwika kuhuma kukanya, akale ni fungulo ija mwino ghuno ghusila kusila na munyororo un'kome muluvoko lwa mwene. (Abyssos )
The angel threw him into the deep dark pit. He shut [the door of the pit], locked it, and sealed it [to prevent anyone from opening it]. He did that in order that Satan might no longer deceive [the people of the] nations [MTY], until those 1,000 years are ended. After that [time], Satan must be released {[God/God’s angel] must release Satan} for a short time [in order that he can do what God has planned]. (Abyssos )
Akan'taghile mulishimo ilisila vusililo, akalidinda napibika umuhuri pakyanya pa jene. Ulu lulyale anala ulwakuuti nangadenganiaghe avapanji kange amaka imbilima jimo pano ghisila. Ye sikilile apuo, vikumulekesia mwavuke un'siki n'debe. (Abyssos )
The devil, who had deceived those people, will be thrown {[God’s angel] will throw the devil, who had deceived those people} into the lake of burning sulfur. [This is the same lake] into which both the beast and the false prophet had been [thrown] {[he] had [thrown] both the beast and the false prophet}. [As a result], they will continually suffer severely forever. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )

[The people whose bodies were buried in the] sea [became alive again in order to stand before God’s throne]. Everyone who had been buried on the land (OR, Every person who was waiting in the place where dead people stay) [became alive again, in order to stand before the throne]. [God] judged each one of them according to what each one had done. (Hadēs )
Inyanjabjikavahumia avafue vano vakale munkate mu jeene. Uvufue navafue vakavahumisie avafue vano vakale mun'kate mu jene, navafue vakahighilue kuling'ana nikila kino vakavombile. (Hadēs )
All the unbelievers [PRS, MTY] —those who had been in the place where they waited after they died— [were thrown into the burning lake]. The burning lake is [the place in which people] die the second time. (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )
Uvufue navafue vakataghua mun'kate muli sumbi lya mwooto. Uvu vwe vufue vwa vuvili - ilisumbi ilya mwooto. (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )
The people whose [names] [MTY] are not in the book, the one [where God] has written [the names of people who] have [eternal] life, [were also thrown] {([God/God’s angel]) threw them also} [into the lake] of fire. (Limnē Pyr )
Nave ilitavua lya ghweeni nalikavonike lilembilue mun'kate mukitabu ikya vwumi, akataghilue mun'kate mulisumbi ilya mwooto. (Limnē Pyr )
But those who are cowardly, those who do not believe [in me], those [who do] detestable things, those who are murderers, those who sin sexually, those who commit sorcery, those who worship idols, and every liar, will [all suffer] in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. [Anyone who suffers in that lake] will be dying the second time.” (Limnē Pyr )
Looli ndavule uvwoghofi, vanonavikwitika, vano vikalasia, avabudi, avavwafu, avahavi, vano vikufunya ku fihwani, navadesi vooni, ikighavo kivanave kiva mulisumbi lya mwooto ughwa kibiriti ghuno ghunyanya. Uvuo vwe vufue vwa vuvili.” (Limnē Pyr )
There will never again be night. [God’s servants] will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, because the Lord God will shine his light upon them. And they will rule forever. (aiōn )
Napiliva nikilo kange; nambe napiliva nuvufumbue vwa lumuli lwa tala nambe lijuva ulwakuva u Mutwa Nguluve imulika muvanave. Vope vitema kuvusila nakusila. (aiōn )
My [committing adultery] would [produce in me a fire like] [MET] the fire that burns people in hell, and it would burn up everything that I own. ()
If you go into houses of women who are like that, you will die [when you are still young]; the road [to their houses] leads to hell. ()
They will look around the land and see only trouble/distress and darkness and things that cause them to despair. And [then] they will be thrown into the very black darkness [of hell]. ()
Many of those who have died [EUP] will become alive again. Some of them will live eternally [with God], and some will be eternally shamed/disgraced [in hell]. ()
“As for me, I [am not very important, because] I baptize you [only] with water. I [baptize you] because of your feeling sorry that you have sinned. But someone else will come soon who is very great; [he will do powerful deeds] (OR, [act powerfully]). [Because he is] superior to me, I am not worthy [even to do a menial task for him, such as] to carry his sandals. He will put [his] Holy Spirit [within] you [to truly change] the way you live [MET], and [he will judge others of you and punish you in] the fire [in hell]. ()
“[Going to] where people live eternally [with God in heaven] is difficult. [It is like] going along a narrow road [PRS, MET] that leads to a narrow gate. Not many people find that way. [The way] that most [people take] is easy, [but it results in their being punished] {[God punishing them]} [in hell. That way is like a] wide road that people walk on [PRS, MET] until they reach the wide gate, but that road and that gate lead to where [they] will be destroyed {[God] will destroy them}. Many people enter that gate. So I [am telling you to leave the wide road and] enter the narrow gate [to heaven].” ()
[And] all the trees that do not produce good fruit are chopped down and burned in a fire {people chop them down and burn them in a fire} [to get rid of them]. [Similarly], those who falsely claim to be prophets [will be thrown] {[God will throw false prophets]} [into the fires of hell]. ()
But [the Jews] [IDM] [who should have allowed] God to rule over them will be sent to [hell, where there is] total darkness. And as a result, they will weep [because of their suffering] and will grind their teeth [because they will have severe pain] [MTY].” ()
“You [people who live in] Chorazin [city] [MTY] and you [people who live in] Bethsaida [city] [MTY] will suffer terribly in hell! [I] did great miracles in your [cities, but you did not turn from your sinful behavior]. If the miracles that I performed in your [cities] had been done in [the ancient cities of] Tyre and Sidon, the [wicked people who lived there] long ago would have sat in ashes, wearing coarse cloth [to show that they were sorry for their sins]. ()
They will throw those people into the fires of [hell]. There those people will weep and grind their teeth [because of the great pain that they are suffering]. ()
They will throw the wicked people into the fire [in hell]. And those wicked people will weep and gnash their teeth [because of the intense pain they are suffering].” ()
Do not pay any attention to [the Pharisees]. They [do not help people who do not know God’s truth] to [understand it, just like] blind guides [do not help] blind [people to perceive where they should go] [MET]. If a blind person [tries to] lead [another] blind person, they will both fall into a big hole [MET]. [Similarly, both the Pharisees and their disciples will end up in hell].” ()
In the same way [that shepherds do not want one of] their [sheep to stray away], so [God], your Father in heaven, does not want [even] one of these children to go to hell.” ()
John replied to them all, “No, [I am not]. I used [only] water when I baptized you. But [the Messiah] will soon come! He is far greater than I am. [He is so great that] I am not worthy to [be like his slave and] untie his sandals [MET] [like] a slave would do! He will put [his] Holy Spirit within [MTY] you [to truly change your lives], and [he will judge others of you and punish you in] the fire [MET] [in hell]. ()
Not one! But, on the contrary, some of this crowd [have believed in him]. They do not know [the true teachings of] our laws! They will go to hell [for listening to him]!” ()
But Peter said to him, “May you [(sg)] and your money go to hell, because you [mistakenly] think that you can buy [from us] what God [alone] gives to [people] ()
If [the things that we have taught] are not valuable and long-lasting [MET], [we will not get a reward]. We will be saved {[God] will save us} [from hell], but [that is all that we will get. We will be like a man who] escapes from a fire [without saving any of his possessions]. ()
And those people who died [EUP] [while they were trusting] in Christ will go to hell. ()
To those who [are on the way to hell, our message is like] [MET] a foul smell [because it is about dying] and being separated from God forever. But, to those [on the way to heaven, the message that we teach is like] a pure fragrant smell, [because we tell them] that they will live [forever with God. As we think about that, we think] (no one is able [to do] such important work [for God!]/how can anyone be able [to do] such important work [for God]?) [RHQ] ()
And by doing wicked [things], he will completely deceive those who will [certainly] (perish/go to hell). [He will deceive them] because they will have refused to love the true [message]. So they will not be saved {God will not save them}. ()
These [teachers who each false things mislead/deceive people by promising what they cannot do], as [MET] dried-up springs [mislead/deceive people by causing them to expect to get water from them]. They [mislead/deceive people] [MET] just like clouds that are blown along by strong winds [mislead/deceive people by causing them to expect rain, but no rain falls. Therefore], God has reserved the darkness of hell [for those teachers of false doctrines]. ()
