1 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God our Saviour and Christ Jesus our hope:
Bulus, una a kadura ku Ugomo Asere Yeso usuro uwuna Asere unu ubura uru, nan nu Ugomo Asere Yeso unu uge sa tibe.
2 To Timothy, my own true son in the faith. May grace, mercy and peace be granted to you from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Uhana ahira Timoti, vana um ukadura uhem, ubura nan iriba ishew usuro Asere nan Ugomo Asere Yeso Ugomo Asere aru.
3 When I was on my journey to Macedonia I begged you to remain on in Ephesus that you might remonstrate with certain persons because of their erroneous teaching
Kasi imumsa mabuka we uwu, sa indusa uhana makidoniya agi, uda tonno u Afisa uwuu aye kati wa wuzi ure ubezi sas.
4 and the attention they bestow on mere fables and endless pedigrees, such as lead to controversy rather than to a true stewardship for God, which only exists where there is faith. And I make the same request now.
Kati wa cari uganiya ahira kunna ire itente wana bassa uzatu ubinani. Agino a ezen in matara, unu guna ubenki ukatuma ka Asere, ahira unya umu cee.
5 But the end sought to be secured by exhortation is the love which springs from a pure heart, a clear conscience and a sincere faith.
Nicce ni tize tini kobbi uhem uni usuro iriba ilau, wanu inko iriba ishew, nan urusa ukadura.
6 From these some have drifted away, and have wandered into empty words.
Aye waciki una uwemi, wa gamirka uhana atize tihura.
7 They are ambitious to be teachers of the Law, although they do not understand either their own words or what the things are about which they make such confident assertions.
Wa nyara wa cukuno anu bezizi utize tini kobbi abanna me daki wa rusi imumbe sa wazin nu boo me nyani inrum me sa tonnon.
8 Now we know that the Law is good, if a man uses it in the way it should be used,
Abanna me tirusa tize tini kobbi ti rezi inki awuza tini una ure-re.
9 and remembers that a law is not enacted to control a righteous man, but for the lawless and rebellious, the irreligious and sinful, the godless and profane--for those who strike their fathers or their mothers, for murderers,
Tikuri tirusa agino me, tize tini kobbi barki daki una kadura mani ba, abanna barki anu uzatu ukabsa u inko utize, amabu anu nyarsi me tize, nan anu zattu utarsa Asere, nan ana madini, nan anu zata Asere, nan anu cori utize. An nya tize tini kobbi barki aru uhuza akaco nan ka ino nan anu huza anu.
10 fornicators, sodomites, slave-dealers, liars and false witnesses; and for whatever else is opposed to wholesome teaching
Barki anu tarsa aneh nan ana nya vana uruma nan vana uruma, barki anu ucuzuzo anu wahaa we ani rere, barki ana mocoo nan anu uboo imumbesa daki iraa ba, nan vat imum besa izin in nieru nan nimum be sa izi ikadura.
11 and is not in accordance with the Good News of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.
Igeme ine ini unonziko tize ta sere Asere kani unya anyo are-re, age sa anyam ucanti.
12 I am thankful to Him who made me strong--even Christ Jesus our Lord--because He has judged me to be faithful and has put me into His service,
Inzin ni iriba irom inu Uomo Asere Yeso Ugomo uru, de sa ma wum iruba ihuu, abanna makabum unu ure-re, ma wum anyimo akaduma ka meme.
13 though I was previously a blasphemer and a persecutor and had been insolent in outrage. Yet mercy was shown me, because I had acted ignorantly, not having as yet believed;
Mi mazi unu coro utize mani, unu patti nan unu wuza tiron ronga ti buru.
14 and the grace of our Lord came to me in overflowing fulness, conferring faith on me and the love which is in Christ Jesus.
Abanna vat anime amuzin ubura barki ma in anyimo utame, wanu uzatu ukadura. Abanna me uronta wa Ugomo Asere kpankom nan u hem ukadura, wunu hem Ugomo Asere Yeso.
15 Faithful is the saying, and deserving of universal acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; among whom I stand foremost.
Tize tisere tu kaba tini, tabari konde avi makabi, unu guna Ugomo Asere Yeso maribe unee barki ma buri ana madini, anyimo aweme mimani inteki unu corno me.
16 But mercy was shown me in order that in me as the foremost of sinners Christ Jesus might display the fulness of His long-suffering patience as an example to encourage those who would afterwards be resting their faith on Him with a view to the Life of the Ages. (aiōnios g166)
Barki ane makem ubura barki ahira am unu tuba, abezi iriba i neze i Yeso Ugomo Asere. Ma wuu igmo imum bati in cukuno imumu ubatta ahira ande sa wa kabi kadura uhana uvenke uzatu umaraa. (aiōnios g166)
17 Now to the immortal and invisible King of the Ages, who alone is God, be honour and glory to the Ages of the Ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)
Aname, ugomo unee usso mayenne, unu uzatu uwono, in hunzi, Asere mameni unu udang ninonzo nicukuno nan uhana umaraa unee vat-vat. Icukuno Anime. (aiōn g165)
18 This is the charge which I entrust to you, my son Timothy, in accordance with the inspired instructions concerning you which were given me long ago, that being equipped with them as your armour you may be continually fighting the good fight,
Inzinu nya uwe u inko utize, vana um, Timoti, in zin nu wuza anime barki imum be sa amu wuza ina dumo azesere awe me, barki uribe ani kono nirere.
19 holding fast to faith and a clear conscience, which some have cast aside and have made shipwreck of their faith.
Wuza imum agino barki u cukuno umu hem in kadura unu iraa ure-re. Are anu wa nyarime ukunna uhem in kadura ka we.
20 Among these are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have delivered to Satan so that they may be taught not to blaspheme.
Gusi an Himinayus nan Iskanderi ande sa ma wito we atari ti nu uburu bati ma hungukowe titoi a hira corso utize.
