1 Thessalonians 1
1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians [which is] in God the Father, and [in] the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace [be] to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Une che Paolo ni che Siluwano ni che Timoseo, tukunnembela ŵanyamwe mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito wa kwele ku Sesalonike ŵandi ŵandu ŵakwe Akunnungu Atati ni Ambuje ŵetu che Yesu Kilisito. Tukummendela ntuuka ni chitendewele kutyochela kwa Akunnungu.
2 We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers;
Tukwatogolela Akunnungu moŵa gose kwa ligongo lyenu wose ni kunkumbuchilanga mmapopelo getu pangapela.
3 Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;
Pakuŵa paujo pa Akunnungu Atati ŵetu tukukumbuchila inkuti pakutumichila kwa chikulupi ni inkuti pakulisausya ni masengo ligongo lya unonyelo wenu. Iyoyo tukukumbuchila ichitite kulimbichika chilolelo chenu kwa Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito.
4 Knowing, brethren beloved by God, your election.
Achalongo achinjetu ŵakunonyelwa ni Akunnungu, tukumanyilila kuti ŵelewo ansagwile mme ŵandu ŵakwe.
5 For our gospel came not to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.
Pakuŵa patwalalichile Ngani Jambone kukwenu nganitulalichila kwa maloŵe pe, nambo kwa machili ni ukamuchisyo wa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu tuchimanyililaga kuti utenga wo uli wa usyene. Nkumanyilila itwatite kutama pamo ni ŵanyamwe, twatemi yambone kwa kunkamuchisya ŵanyamwe.
6 And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit:
Ŵanyamwe mwatusyasisye uweji ni mwasyasisye Ambuje. Namuno mwalageswe kwannope mwalipochele Liloŵe lya Akunnungu kwa lukondwa lwalukutyochela mu Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.
7 So that ye were examples to all that believe, in Macedonia and Achaia.
Kwa litala li ŵanyamwe mwatendekwe chisyasyo kwa ŵakukulupilila wose ŵa ku Makedonia ni ku Akaya nombe nako.
8 For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.
Pakuŵa kutyochela kukwenu lisonile liloŵe lya Ambuje, ngaŵa pa Makedonia ni pa Akaya pe, nambo posepose ngani ja chikulupi chenu kwa Akunnungu chijenele. Kwa pele uweji nganitukola chindu chakusala.
9 For they themselves show of us what manner of entrance we had to you, and how ye turned to God from idols, to serve the living and true God;
Achinsyene wo akuŵalanga ngani ja ulendo wetu patwanjimajimile, intite pakutupochela ni intite kuileka inyago ni intite pakwagalauchila Akunnungu. Mwatesile yeleyo kuti mwatumichile Akunnungu ŵajumi ni ŵausyene.
10 And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, [even] Jesus, who delivered us from the wrath to come.
Sambano nkunlindilila Mwanagwe juchatuluche kutyochela kwinani, yaani Che Yesu juŵansyusisye mu ŵawe, nombewo ni ŵakutukulupusya mlutumbilo lwa Akunnungu lwalukwika.
