1 Athesalonike 4
1 Naguo ũhoro wa kũrigĩrĩria, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ-rĩ, nĩ atĩ nĩtwamũrutire ũhoro wa mũtũũrĩre, ũrĩa ũkenagia Ngai, na noguo mũtũũraga mwĩkaga. Rĩu tũkũmũũria na tũkamũringĩrĩria thĩinĩ wa Mwathani Jesũ atĩ mũkĩragĩrĩrie gwĩkaga o ũguo.
Finally then, brothers, we implore you and we exhort [you] in [the] Lord Jesus (so that *NO*) even as you have received from us in what manner it behooves you to walk and to please God (even as also you walk [now], *NO*) so you may abound more;
2 Nĩgũkorwo nĩmũũĩ maũndũ marĩa twamũtaarire namo, tũrĩ na ũhoti wa Mwathani Jesũ.
You know for what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus.
3 Tondũ rĩĩrĩ, ũndũ ũrĩa Ngai endete nĩ atĩ mũtuĩke andũ aamũre: atĩ mwĩtheemage ũmaraya;
This for is [the] will of God, the sanctification of you: To abstain you [are] from sexual immorality;
4 na atĩ o ũmwe wanyu amenye gwatha mwĩrĩ wake mwene ũikarage ũrĩ mũtheru na akĩũtĩĩaga,
to know each of you [how] the his own vessel to control in holiness and honor,
5 atarĩ na merirĩria ma mwĩrĩ ta andũ a ndũrĩrĩ arĩa matooĩ Ngai;
not in [the] passion of lust as also the Gentiles not knowing God;
6 na atĩ ha ũhoro wa maũndũ macio, gũtigakorwo mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũngĩhĩtĩria mũrũ na mwarĩ wa ithe, kana amwĩke ũũru. Mwathani nĩakaherithia andũ nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mothe ta macio, o ta ũrĩa tũrĩkĩtie kũmwĩra na tũkamũkaania.
not to go beyond and to overreach in the matter the brother of him; because avenging [is] (the *k*) Lord concerning all these things even as also we told before you and thoroughly warned.
7 Tondũ Ngai ndatwĩtĩire maũndũ ma waganu, no aatwĩtire nĩguo tũtũũre mũtũũrĩre wa ũtheru.
Not for has called us God to impurity but into holiness.
8 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, mũndũ ũrĩa ũkũregana na ũrutani ũyũ ti mũndũ araregana nake no nĩ Ngai, ũrĩa ũmũheaga inyuĩ Roho wake Mũtheru.
So then the [one] rejecting [this] not man disregards but God the [One] also (giving *N(k)O*) the Spirit of Him Holy to (you. *N(K)O*)
9 Na rĩu-rĩ, harĩ ũhoro wa kwendana na ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ-rĩ, tũtibataire kũmwandĩkĩra nĩ ũndũ inyuĩ ene nĩmũrutĩtwo kwendanaga nĩ Ngai.
Concerning now brotherly love no need you have [for me] to write to you; yourselves for you yourselves taught by God are in order to love one another;
10 Na ti-itherũ, nĩmwendete ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ othe arĩa marĩ Makedonia guothe. No nĩtũkũmũringĩrĩria inyuĩ ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, atĩ mũkĩragĩrĩrie gwĩka ũguo makĩria.
And for you are doing this toward all the brothers the [ones] in all Macedonia. We exhort however you, brothers, to abound more and more
11 Atĩrĩrĩ, mwĩrirĩriei gũtũũra mũtũũrĩre wa ũhooreri, na mũhangʼagĩre o maũndũ marĩa mamũkoniĩ, na mũrutage wĩra na moko manyu, o ta ũrĩa twamwĩrire,
and to strive earnestly to live quietly and to attend to [your] own and to work with the own hands of you even as you we commanded;
12 nĩgeetha mũtũũrĩre wanyu wa o mũthenya, ũtũme mũheagwo gĩtĩĩo nĩ andũ arĩa matarĩ a thiritũ yanyu, na nĩgeetha mũtigatuĩke mũrigo kũrĩ mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ.
so that you may walk properly toward those outside and of no one need may have.
13 No rĩrĩ, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, tũtikwenda mũikarage mũtooĩ ũhoro wa andũ arĩa makomete, kana mũigue kĩeha ta andũ arĩa angĩ matarĩ na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro.
Not (we do want *N(K)O*) but you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those (themselves falling asleep, *N(k)O*) so that not you may be grieved even as also the rest those not having hope.
14 Nĩtwĩtĩkĩtie atĩ Jesũ nĩakuire na akĩriũka, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩtwĩtĩkĩtie atĩ Ngai nĩakarehanĩria Jesũ hamwe na andũ arĩa makomete marĩ thĩinĩ wake.
If for we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so also God those having fallen asleep through Jesus will bring with Him.
15 Kũringana na kiugo kĩa Mwathani we mwene, tũkũmwĩra atĩ ithuĩ arĩa tũrĩ muoyo, arĩa tũtigĩtwo nginya rĩrĩa agacooka tũtigatongoria arĩa marĩkĩtie gũkoma.
This for to you we declare in [the] word of [the] Lord that we ourselves the living who are remaining untill the coming of the Lord certainly not may precede those having fallen asleep;
16 Thuutha wa ũguo, ithuĩ arĩa tũgaakorwo tũrĩ muoyo na tũtigaire-rĩ, nĩtũkoyanĩrio hamwe nao tũtwarwo matu-inĩ nĩguo tũgacemanie na Mwathani rĩera-inĩ. Na nĩ ũndũ ũcio tũgaatũũrania na Mwathani nginya tene.
because Himself the Lord with a loud command, with [the] voice of an archangel and with [the] trumpet of God will descend from heaven, and the dead in Christ will rise first,
Then we ourselves the living those remaining together with them we will be caught away in [the] clouds for [the] meeting of the Lord in [the] air; and so always with [the] Lord we will be.
18 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ũmanagĩrĩriai mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ na ciugo icio.
Therefore do encourage one another with words these.
