1 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Savior and Christ Jesus our hope,
Paulo, usukhya va Yeesu Kilisiti uholehana ni ndagelo ncha Nguluve UYeesu Klilisiti uyavile nyalyekasyo hyolyofe.
2 to Timothy, a true son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
hya Timotheo umanango uvayelyeli khulwedkho uluhungo, Ulyesayo ne amani nchincho nchi homana Nguluve Udaada Uyesu Kilisiti Untwa veto.
3 As I urged you to do when I was leaving for Macedonia, remain in Ephesus so that you can command certain people not to teach a different doctrine.
Ponehahusisitisye vunihega uhuluta humakedonia, usigale kho Efeso powesye ukuvasisitesya nohuva mulesya avanu fulani vafundesiwe amofundesyo gagosagahyanine.
4 Neither should they pay attention to stories and endless genealogies. These cause arguments rather than helping the plan of God, which is by faith.
Vasite uhupolehencha ihadisi nihadisi ne uloza ncha nasaba nchincho mwisuo. Ago gugisababisya amabishanonuzaidi nukuvatanga okholuta elatiba ya U Nguluve va lyedeho.
5 Now the goal of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from a sincere faith.
Nilengo lya lolagelo ile ulugano luhamana numbula enonu, khinia enonu nulyedeho ulyalyeli.
6 Some people have missed the mark and have turned away from these things to foolish talk.
Avanu valekosekhinche elimenyu vagalehele amafundisyo aga vavehile ukhochova ekhepumbafu.
7 They want to be teachers of the law, but they do not understand what they are saying or what they so confidently affirm.
Vinogwa ukhota vamanyesi va ululagelo, ulwakhuva savahemanyile ekhevichova au ekhevisisitesya.
8 But we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully.
tulumanyile uhota ululagelo ulunonu kama umunu itiumela khovo sahihi.
9 We know this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for a lawless and rebellious people, for ungodly people and sinners, and for those who are godless and profane. It is made for those who kill their fathers and mothers, for murderers,
TUlumanyile ukhuta, ululagelo ulu sayehatongingiwe khu munu unyawolyeli khuvavo videnya ululagelo nuvovivi avanu davosio vavalanche avalevovole u Nguluve nimbivi yetungiwe huvabudu avibuda hava odaada yawo vavaninawo ava vobudi.
10 for sexually immoral people, for homosexuals, for those who kidnap people for slaves, for liars, for false witnesses, and for whatever else is against faithful instruction.
Khombombo yavaligu, khombombo ya vanu amalaya navavo visiwa avanu vikhovavomba vasukhwa, khombombo ya vadesi, khombombo ya wasaidiwa vodesi, yeyeyoni uyovile hosana ni ndagelo uwononu.
11 This instruction is according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.
Ululagelo lahoma niliwangeli nivuvaha wa Nguluve yoywa uyisg nukhyaminiwa.
12 I thank Christ Jesus our Lord. He strengthened me, for he considered me faithful, and he placed me into service.
Nikhondemmya uYeesu Kilisite Umtwa vetu. Akhamile ingovu, alipahuva akhambalile unene khavogolofu, akhombeho mmbombo.
13 I was a blasphemer, a persecutor, and a violent man. But I received mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief.
Nale munu va hotesya nukhumanga. Napatile olosayo ulyakova navombile khovopumbafu ulya khosita khuva mwedesi.
14 But the grace of our Lord overflowed with faith and love that is in Christ Jesus.
Ulyaheva uluhungu lya Nguluve adegile uwedefu nulugano uwa Kilisiti uYeesu.
15 This message is reliable and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. I am the worst of these.
Ululagelo ulu lukwaminiwa lugiwa ukhupelela na voni ulya uYeesu ahinchile ikhelunga ukhola awanembivi. Une nelimbivi kholiho voni.
16 But for this reason I was given mercy, so that in me, the foremost, Christ Jesus might demonstrate all patience. He did this as an example for those who would trust in him for eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Ulyakhuva one napeviwe ikhisa ulyahova igati ndyone, ulyahanja, Kilisiti UYesu avonesye uvofumelefu woni. Ahavombile evo ukhuta kheve khehya ni huvohi avayaheva vikhokonga khuwomi wa sihu nchoni. (aiōnios g166)
17 Now to the king of the ages, the immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Numbaha uyalevovote umwisyo, uyosifya uyusovoneha u Nguluve mwene, wav wodwado nu wowakha sihu nchoni. Amee. (aiōn g165)
18 I am placing this command before you, Timothy, my child, in accordance with the prophecies previously made about you, that you might fight the good fight,
Nikholoveha ululagelo ulukhuvolungolo khulyove Timotheo, vemwana vango. Nivomba ewa okhohomana na malago, agohamile khulyove uhuhuma huvutengolelo hulyove, ukhuta ukhusehe mvita ifinonu.
19 holding faith and a good conscience. By rejecting this, some have shipwrecked their faith.
Uvombe ovo ukhuta uve nolyedekho. Avanu avange vahangumile vabela ulyedeho.
20 Such are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I gave over to Satan so that they may be taught not to blaspheme.
Ndoloyevelile himeneyo nu alekizanda yoywa nepile utavango osetano afundesiwe asite uhokufuni.
