< 1 Timothy 3 >
1 A feithful word. If ony man desirith a bishopriche, he desirith a good werk.
Nke a bụ okwu kwesiri ntụkwasị obi ma bụrụkwa eziokwu, bụ nke na-asị, ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla na-achọ ọnọdụ ịbụ ụkọchukwu, ọ na-achọ ezi ọrụ kacha mma.
2 Therfor it bihoueth a byschop to be with out repreef, the hosebonde of o wijf, sobre, prudent, chast, vertewous, holdinge hospitalite, a techere;
Ya mere onye ụkọchukwu kwesiri ịbụ onye a na-adịghị ata ụta, onye lụrụ otu nwunye, onye obi umeala, onye na-achịkọta onwe ya nke ọma, onye nwere nsọpụrụ, onye na-anabata ndị ọbịa nʼụlọ ya, nakwa onye nwere ike ikuzi ihe.
3 not youun myche to wyn, not a smytere, but temperat, not ful of chiding, not coueitouse, wel reulinge his hous,
Ọ gaghị abụ onye na-aṅụbiga mmanya oke, ọ gaghị abụ onye na-alụkarị ọgụ, kama ọ ga-abụ onye dị nwayọọ, onye na-ahụghị okwu na ụka nʼanya, na onye na-adịghị ahụ ego nʼanya.
4 and haue sones suget with al chastite;
Ọ ga-abụ onye na-achịzi ezinaụlọ ya nke ọma, bụrụkwa onye na-achịkwa ụmụ ya inwe nsọpụrụ nʼụzọ ọbụla.
5 for if ony man kan not gouerne his house, hou schal he haue diligence of the chirche of God? not new conuertid to the feith,
(Nʼihi na ọ bụrụ na mmadụ enweghị ike chịkọtazie ezinaụlọ ya, ọ ga-esi aṅaa chịzie chọọchị Chineke?)
6 lest he be borun vp in to pride, and falle in to doom of the deuel.
Ọ gaghị abụ onye chegharịrị ọhụrụ, ma ọ bụghị ya, ọ ga-afụlị onwe ya elu nʼịnya isi, ma si otu a daba nʼọmụma ikpe dị ka ekwensu.
7 For it bihoueth hym to haue also good witnessing of hem that ben with outforth, that he falle not in to repreef, and in to the snare of the deuel.
Ọ ga-abụkwa onye nwere ezi ama nʼebe ndị nọ nʼezi nọ, ka ọ ghara ịdaba nʼọnọdụ ihere nakwa nʼọnya ekwensu.
8 Also it bihoueth dekenes to be chast, not double tungid, not youun myche to wyn, not suynge foul wynnyng;
Otu ahụ kwa, ndị a họpụtara ijere chọọchị ozi aghaghị ịbụ ndị kwesiri nsọpụrụ, ndị na-enweghị ire abụọ, ndị kwesiri ntụkwasị obi. Ha agaghị abụ ndị na-aṅụbiga mmanya oke na ndị akpịrị ego na-agbaso uru nʼezighị ezi.
9 that han the mysterie of feith in clene conscience.
Ha ga-abụ ndị ji akọnuche dị ọcha na-ejidesi eziokwu nke okwukwe anyị ike.
10 But be thei preued first, and mynystre so, hauynge no cryme.
Tupu a họpụta ha ịrụ ọrụ a, a ga-ebu ụzọ nwalee ha. Ọ bụrụ na ha enweghị ebubo ọbụla megide ha, mgbe ahụ, a ga-eme ha ndị na-eje ozi na chọọchị.
11 Also it bihoueth wymmen to be chast, not bacbitinge, sobre, feithful in alle thingis.
Otu aka ahụ kwa, ndị nwanyị kwesikwara ịbụ ndị nwere nsọpụrụ nʼụzọ ọbụla, ndị na-adịghị ebu iro nʼobi, ndị na-adịghị agba asịrị, kama ndị nwere obi umeala, na ndị kwesiri ntụkwasị obi nʼihe niile.
12 Dekenes be hosebondis of o wijf; whiche gouerne wel her sones and her housis.
Ndị niile a ga-ahọpụta ije ozi na chọọchị aghaghị ịbụ ndị nwere naanị otu nwunye, ndị na-achịzi ụmụ ha na ezinaụlọ nke aka ha nke ọma.
13 For thei that mynystren wel, schulen gete a good degre to hem silf, and myche triste in the feith, that is in Crist Jhesu.
Nʼihi na ndị ahụ rụrụ ọrụ ije ozi ha nke ọma nwere ụgwọ ọrụ. Ụgwọ ọrụ ha bụkwa nsọpụrụ ahụ ndị ọzọ ga-asọpụrụ ha, na nkwuwa okwu ha nwere banyere okwukwe a nʼime Kraịst Jisọs.
14 Sone Timothe, Y write to thee these thingis, hopinge that Y schal come soon to thee;
Enwere m olileanya na m ga-abịa ileta gị na mgbe na-adịghị anya, ma ana m edere gị ihe ndị a.
15 but if Y tarie, that thou wite, hou it bihoueth thee to lyue in the hous of God, that is the chirche of lyuynge God, a pilere and sadnesse of treuthe.
Asị na m enweghị ike bịa ọsịịsọ, ị ga-amata otu ndị mmadụ kwesiri isi bie obi nʼezinaụlọ Chineke, nke bụ nzukọ nke Chineke dị ndụ, ogidi na ntọala nke eziokwu ahụ.
16 And opynli it is a greet sacrament of pitee, that thing that was schewid in fleisch, it is iustified in spirit, it apperid to aungels, it is prechid to hethene men, it is bileuyd in the world, it is takun vp in glorie.
Karịchasịa nke a, ọ bụ ihe omimi dị ukwuu, bụ ntọala ebe ezi ịdị nsọ si walite: Ọ pụtara ihe nʼụdịdị mmadụ, Mmụọ Nsọ gosiri na ọ bụ onye ezi omume, ndị mmụọ ozi hụrụ ya, e kwusara ihe banyere ya nye mba niile, ụwa niile kwenyeere na ya, a nabatakwara ya nʼebube nke eluigwe.
