Romans 12
1 Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.
Hinu, valongo vangu, ndava Chapanga ana lipyana neju kwitu, nikuvayupa neju mujiwusayi mwavene luteta lweluvili mumi, muvya mwavamsopi na kukita geigana Chapanga. Yeniyi ndi njila ya chakaka ya kumgundamila Chapanga.
2 Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God. (aiōn g165)
Mkoto kulanda mambu ga mulima uwu, nambu Chapanga ang'anamusayi mitima yinu kwa kung'anamusa maholo ginu. Penapo ndi yati mwimanya maganu ga Chapanga gala gabwina gegamganisa mwene na cheigana nyenye muvyai. (aiōn g165)
3 For I say through the grace that was given me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of yourself more highly than you ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.
Ndava ya ubwina wa Chapanga weanipeli, nikuvajovela mwavoha, mkoto kujilola kuvya vavaha kuliku chemwiganikiwa kuvya. Palaha paki muvya na luhala mukuholalela kwinu na mjipimayi mwavene kulandana na sadika yemupewili na Chapanga.
4 For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members don’t have the same function,
Muhiga yimonga muvi viwungu vyamahele, nambu kila chimonga na lihengu laki.
5 so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another,
Mewawa pamonga tete tavamahele, tivii higa yimonga mukuwunga na Kilisitu, na kila mmonga ndi chiwungu cha higa ya muyaki.
6 having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us: if prophecy, let’s prophesy according to the proportion of our faith;
Hinu, kila mundu avi na njombi yaki ngati chatipewili ubwina wa Chapanga. Mweavi na njombi ya kujova ujumbi kuhuma kwa Chapanga ndi iganikiwa ajova ngati cheyivili sadika yaki.
7 or service, let’s give ourselves to service; or he who teaches, to his teaching;
Mundu mweapewili njombi ya kuvahengela vangi ndi avahengelayi. Mundu mweavi na njombi ya kuwula ndi awulayi.
8 or he who exhorts, to his exhorting; he who gives, let him do it with generosity; he who rules, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
Mweapewili njombi ya kuvakangamalisa mtima vangi ndi akitayi chenicho. Mweapewili njombi ya kuvapela vangi cheavili nachu na avapelayi kwa mtima msopi. Mweakuvalongosa vangi na avalongosayi bwina, mweakuvahengela lipyana vangi ndi akitayi chenicho kwa luheku.
9 Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.
Uganu winu uvyayi changali uhomela. Mugayomela gahakau, mugakamulayi gabwina.
10 In love of the brothers be tenderly affectionate to one another; in honor prefer one another,
Mgananayi ngati valongo, kila mmonga amutopesa hoti muyaki kuliku cheakujitopesa mwene.
11 not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord,
Muhenga lihengu kwa kukangamala amala mkoto kuvya vakata na mukumuhengela BAMBU kwa mtima winu woha.
12 rejoicing in hope, enduring in troubles, continuing steadfastly in prayer,
Huvalila yinu yivakita kuvya na sangaluka magono goha. Pamwig'aiswa musindimala, mumyupayi Chapanga lukumbi lwoha.
13 contributing to the needs of the saints, and given to hospitality.
Muvatangatila vandu va Chapanga maganu gavi, muvapokela vayehe kwa mtima wa bwina.
14 Bless those who persecute you; bless, and don’t curse.
Mumuyupa Chapanga avamotisa vandu voha vevakuvang'aisa, muvamotisa mkoto kuvapela likoto.
15 Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep.
Muheka pamonga na voha veviheka, muvemba pamonga na voha vevivemba.
16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Don’t set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Don’t be wise in your own conceits.
Mtama bwina nyenye kwa nyenye. Mkoto kumeka, nambu mtama na mu ungolongondi. Mkoto kujiholalela kuvya muvi na luhala neju.
17 Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honorable in the sight of all men.
Mundu akakukitila uhakau veve ukoto kumuwuyisila uhakau. Uvyai na mtima wa kukita gabwina palongolo ya kila mundu.
18 If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.
Mukangamala kwa upandi winu kutama kwa uteke na vandu voha.
19 Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.”
Vakozi vangu, mkoto kulipisa uhakau, nambu mumlekela Chapanga akita lijambu lenilo mu ligoga laki, muni Mayandiku Gamsopi gijova, Ijova BAMBU, na “Kuvabuna uhakau ndi lihengu langu.”
20 Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head.”
Nambu ngati Mayandiku Gamsopi chegijova, “Likoko waku ngati ana njala yikumvina, umpela chakulya, na ngati avi na njota, mpela manji aywayi. Muni mukukita chenicho ukumkita akola soni.”
21 Don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
Kotoka kuyidakila kuhotolewa na uhakau, nambu uhotola uhakau kwa ubwina.
