Timoteo 1 1
1 Nye, Paulo, ame si nye Kristo Yesu ƒe apostolo to Mawu, mía Ɖela ƒe gbeɖeɖe kple Kristo Yesu, míaƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ dzi la gbɔe agbalẽ sia tso,
Pavl an Apostle of Iesvs Christ, by the commandement of God our Sauiour, and of our Lord Iesus Christ our hope,
2 Na Timoteo, vinye vavã le xɔse la me: Amenuveve, nublanuikpɔkpɔ kple ŋutifafa si tso Mawu, Fofo la kple Kristo Yesu, míaƒe Aƒetɔ gbɔ la nanɔ anyi kpli wò.
Vnto Timotheus my naturall sonne in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father, and from Christ Iesus our Lord.
3 Abe ale si meƒoe ɖe nuwò hafi dzo yi Makedonia ene la, tsi Efeso, eye nàɖo asi ŋutsu siwo le nu dada fiam la dzi be womagafia nenem nuwo o,
As I besought thee to abide still in Ephesus, when I departed into Macedonia, so doe, that thou mayest warne some, that they teach none other doctrine,
4 tɔ te wo be womagagblẽ woƒe ɣeyiɣiwo ɖe gliwo kple dzɔdzɔmenyatotowo ŋu o, elabena nu siawo hea nyahehe dzodzrowo vanɛ ɖe Mawu ƒe dɔwɔwɔ si xɔse hena vanɛ la teƒe.
Neither that they giue heede to fables and genealogies which are endles, which breede questions rather then godly edifying which is by fayth.
5 Nu si metsi dzi na vevie lae nye be kristotɔ siwo katã le afi ma la nayɔ fũu kple lɔlɔ̃ si tso dzi vavãwo kple dzitsinya nyui me, eye woasẽ ŋu le xɔse me.
For the end of the commandement is loue out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith vnfained.
6 Nufiala siawo da ƒu le nu siawo nyanya me, eye wogblẽa woƒe ɣeyiɣi nɔa nya hem, eye wonɔa nya maɖinyawo gblɔm.
From the which things some haue erred, and haue turned vnto vaine iangling.
7 Wodi be yewoaxɔ ŋkɔ abe Mose ƒe sefialagãwo ene, evɔ woawo ŋutɔ menya naneke gobii tso Mose ƒe seawo kple nu si wofiaa mí la ŋu hafi o.
They would be doctours of the Law, and yet vnderstande not what they speake, neither whereof they affirme.
8 Míenyae be se mawo nyo, zi ale si wowɔ wo ŋu dɔ abe ale si Mawu ɖoe la ene.
And we knowe, that the Law is good, if a man vse it lawfully,
9 Míenyae hã be menye ame nyuiwoe wowɔ se la na o, ke boŋ sedzidalawo kple aglãdzelawo, mawumavɔ̃lawo kple nu vɔ̃ wɔlawo, ame makɔmakɔwo kple mawumasubɔlawoe wowɔ se la na, ame siwo wua wo fofowo kple wo dadawo na hlɔ̃dolawo
Knowing this, that the Lawe is not giuen vnto a righteous man, but vnto the lawles and disobedient, to the vngodly, and to sinners, to the vnholy, and to the prophane, to murtherers of fathers and mothers, to manslayers,
10 na ahasiwɔlawo kple nu tovo wɔlawo, amesitsalawo kple aʋatsokalawo kple atam dzodzro kalawo kple nu sia nu si tsi tsitre ɖe nufiafia vavãtɔ
To whoremongers, to buggerers, to menstealers, to lyers, to the periured, and if there be any other thing, that is contrary to wholesome doctrine,
11 si xɔ ɖe Mawu yayratɔ la ƒe ŋutikɔkɔenyanyui si wòtsɔ nam la ŋuti.
Which is according to the glorious Gospel of the blessed God, which is committed vnto me.
12 Medaa akpe geɖe na Kristo Yesu míaƒe Aƒetɔ la be wòtia nye hã abe eƒe dɔlawo dometɔ ɖeka ene, eye wòna ŋusẽm be manye nuteƒewɔla nɛ,
Therefore I thanke him, which hath made me strong, that is, Christ Iesus our Lord: for he counted me faithfull, and put me in his seruice:
13 togbɔ be meɖu fewu le Kristo ƒe ŋkɔ ŋuti kpɔ gɔ̃ hã. Meti eƒe amewo ƒe agbe yome, eye mewɔ nu vevi wo le mɔ ɖe sia ɖe si dzi mate ŋui la nu. Ke Mawu kpɔ nublanui nam, elabena nyemenya nu si wɔm menɔ la o, eye dzixɔse menɔ asinye o.
When before I was a blasphemer, and a persecuter, and an oppresser: but I was receiued to mercie: for I did it ignorantly through vnbeliefe.
14 O, míaƒe Aƒetɔ la ƒe dɔme nyo loo, elabena efia ale si wòle be maxɔ edzi ase lam, be Kristo Yesu ƒe lɔlɔ̃ nayɔ menye fũu.
But the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and loue, which is in Christ Iesus.
15 Esia nye nyateƒenya si wòle be woaɖo toe, axɔe ase keŋ be Kristo Yesu va xexea me nu vɔ̃ wɔlawo ɖe ge, ame siwo dome menye gãtɔ le.
This is a true saying, and by all meanes worthy to be receiued, that Christ Iesus came into the worlde to saue sinners, of whom I am chiefe.
16 Ke Mawu kpɔ nublanui nam ale be Kristo Yesu ate ŋu awɔ ŋutinyedɔ abe kpɔɖeŋu ene be wòatsɔ afia ale si wòte ŋu gbɔa dzi ɖi na nu vɔ̃ wɔla gãtɔ kekeake gɔ̃ hã ame sia ame, ale be woawo hã naxɔe se be woate ŋu akpɔ agbe mavɔ. (aiōnios g166)
Notwithstanding, for this cause was I receiued to mercie, that Iesus Christ should first shewe on me all long suffering vnto the ensample of them, which shall in time to come beleeue in him vnto eternall life. (aiōnios g166)
17 Ŋutikɔkɔe kple bubu woana Mawu tso mavɔ me yi ɖe mavɔ me. Eyae nye Fia tso blema ke, eye wònye Mawu makumakua si womekpɔna o, eye wòyɔ fũu kple nunya. Eya ɖeka koe nye Mawu. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Nowe vnto the King euerlasting, immortall, inuisible, vnto God onely wise, be honour and glorie, for euer, and euer, Amen. (aiōn g165)
18 Azɔ vinye, Timoteo, esia nye nye sedede na wò. Wɔ Aƒetɔ la ƒe aʋawo nyuie, abe ale si wògblɔ na mi be míawɔ to eƒe Nyagblɔɖilawo dzi la ene.
This commandement commit I vnto thee, sonne Timotheus, according to the prophecies, which went before vpon thee, that thou by them shouldest fight a good fight,
19 Lé wò xɔse si le Kristo me la ɖe asi sesĩe, eye ɣe sia ɣi la, wò dzitsinya nanɔ dzadzɛe, eye nàwɔ nu si nènya be enyo la ko. Elabena ame aɖewo gbe toɖoɖo woƒe dzitsinya, eye wowɔ nu si wonya nyuie be mele be woawɔ o. Ale mewɔ nuku be esi wogbe Mawu nenema la, wobu woƒe xɔse si le Yesu Kristo me la o.
Hauing faith and a good conscience, which some haue put away, and as concerning faith, haue made shipwracke.
20 Himenaio kple Aleksandro wonye nu sia wɔlawo ƒe kpɔɖeŋuwo. Eva nɔ nam be matsɔ wo de asi na Satana be woahe to na wo va se ɖe esime woanyae be menyo be woaƒo ɖi Mawu ƒe ŋkɔ o.
Of whom is Hymeneus, and Alexander, whom I haue deliuered vnto Satan, that they might learne not to blaspheme.
