< 1 Timothy 6 >

1 Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and [his] doctrine may not be blasphemed.
Bhona bhanu bhali emwalo ya ingurwema lwa abhagaya bhalole abhakulu bhwebhwe kwe echibhalo, bhakolege kutyo koleleki lisina lya Nyamuanga na ameigisho gasiga okufumwa.
2 And they that have believing masters, let them not despise [them], because they are brethren; but rather do [them] service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort.
Abhagaya bhanu bhali na abhakulu bhebhwe bhali bhekilisha bhasiga okubhagaya kunsonga ati ni bhaili bhebhwe. Tali bhabhakolele emilimu muno. Kulwokubha bhanu abhakolelwa emilimu ni bhekilisha na bhana elyenda. Nuwiigishe no okulasha emisango jinu
3 If any man teacheth otherwise, and consenteth not to wholesome words, [even] the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the doctrine which is according to godliness,
Akabha alio omunu undi neigisha kwo okuyabhisha na atakwikilishanya na obhutangasha bhwe echimali, bhunu bhusokele ku Yesu Kristo, na labha kalema eliigisho linu elitangasha okuja kwilamya.
4 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, from which cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
Mbe omunu oyo kekuyala atakumenya chonachona. Kemela okusamba no okuyakana ne emisango. Emisango ejo ejibhula olwiso, obhuyombo, amafumi, okwigata ne ebhibhibhi,
5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing gain to be godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
na obhusambagani bhwa bhuli mwanya agati ya abhanu abho bhanyamukile obhwenge. Abhasiga echimali, Abhatoga ati okulamya ni njila yokubhona ebhinu.
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
Mbe intungwa yokulamya no okwiyungwa kuli na ifaida nene.
7 For we brought nothing into [this] world, [and it is] certain we can carry nothing out.
Kunsonga chitejile na chona chona kuchalo. Nolwo chitakutula kugega chona chona okusoka kuchalo.
8 And having food and raiment, with these let us be content.
Kulwejo, chiyungwe ne ebhilyo na jingubho jinu chili najo.
9 But they that will be rich, fall into temptation, and a snare, and [into] many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
Mbe bhanu bhalibhaga ne ebhinu bhaligwa mumasakwa, na mumutego. Abhagwa mubhufila bhwafu na inamba mbibhi, na muchinu chona chona chinu echikola abhanu bhawelelele mu kusingalika no okunyamuka.
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some have coveted, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
Kulwokubha okwenda jimpilya ni bhwambilo bhwo okwenda jimbaga jona eja amabhibhi. Abhanu bhanu abhanambalila ago, bhali kumbali ne elikilisha na abheyocha abhene kwo obhusulumbaye bhwafu.
11 But thou, O man of God, flee from these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
Nawe awe omunu wa Nyamuanga, nubhe kula na amagambo ago. Nulubhe obhulengelesi, lilamya, elikilisha, elyenda, okwikomesha no obhufula.
12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
Nulwane obhulemo bhwekisi kulikilisha. Nugwatilile obhulame bhwa akajanende bhunu ubhilikiliwe. Kulwa injuno inu wasosishe ubhubhambasi imbele ya abhanu bhafu kulwe echinu chakisi. (aiōnios g166)
13 I give thee charge in the sight of God, who maketh alive all things, and [before] Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate testified a good confession;
Nakuyana echilagilo chinu imbele ya Nyamuanga, oyo kangalila ebhinu bhibhone okulama, na imbele ya Yesu Kristo, unu abhwiliye echimali echo Pontio Pilato:
14 That thou keep [this] commandment without spot, unrebukable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Gwatilila echilagilo ukomee, obhutabha na amashaka, okukingila okusubha kwo Omukama weswe Yesu Kristo.
15 Which in his times he will show [who is] the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
Nyamuanga alitula abhwelu okuja kwaye ku katungu kekisi, Nyamuanga owalibhando, amanaga genyele, Omukama unu kakama, na Lata bhugenyi unu katangasha.
16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom [be] honor and power everlasting. Amen. (aiōnios g166)
Omwene enyele kalama akajanende, ekaye mubhwelu bhunu bhutakulebhelelwa. Ataliwo omunu unu katula okumulola nolwo okumuta muliso. Kumwene chiliwo echibhalo no obhutulo bwa akajanende. Amina. (aiōnios g166)
17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not high-minded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; (aiōn g165)
Nubhwile abhanibhi bhanu bhali muchalo chinu olyanu bhasiga okwikuya nolwo okutula obhwiikanyo bhwebhwe mubhunibhi, bhunu bhutali na bhusimbagililo, tali bhatule obhwiikanyo bhwebhwe ku Nyamuanga, unu kachiyana bhuli chinu echokuchikondelesha. (aiōn g165)
18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;
Nubhalagilile okukola ebhyekisi, bhanibhe okusoka kubhikolwa bhyekisi, bhabhe no obhwila no okutambula abhandi.
19 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
Munjila eyo abhebhikila ebhinu lwo omusingi mkomeye ku nsiku jinu ejija imbele, koleleki bhagwatilile obhulame bhwe echimali.
20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane [and] vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called;
Timoteo, nuchilinde chinu uyabhilwe. Ikenga no obhulomelesi bhwe echifila no obhuyakani bhwa jimamba jinu ejitogwa obhumenyi kwo olubheyi.
21 Which some professing, have erred concerning the faith. Grace [be] with thee. Amen.
Abhanu abhandi abhalibhasha amagambo ganu, na bhabhulilwe elikilisha. Echigongo chibhe amwi nawe.
