< 1 Timotheo 6 >
1 Nĩ kwagĩrĩire andũ arĩa ngombo, o acio maikaraga ta mekĩrĩtwo icooki rĩa ũkombo ngingo matuage atĩ aathani ao nĩ a kũheagwo gĩtĩĩo gĩothe, nĩgeetha rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai na ũrutani witũ itikanacambio.
Let as many seruaunts as are vnder the yoke, count their masters worthie of all honour, that the Name of God, and his doctrine be not euill spoken of.
2 Arĩa marĩ na aathani metĩkĩtie matikamaime gĩtĩĩo nĩ ũndũ wa gũkorwo atĩ nĩ ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe wao. Handũ ha ũguo, nĩmamatungatagĩre wega makĩria, tondũ arĩa maragunĩka nĩ ũndũ wa ũtungata wao nĩ andũ metĩkĩtie, na nĩ andũ mendetwo. Rutanaga maũndũ macio na ũmaringagĩrĩrie andũ.
And they which haue beleeuing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren, but rather doe seruice, because they are faithfull, and beloued, and partakers of the benefite. These things teach and exhort.
3 Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ angĩrutana ũrutani wa maheeni na akorwo ndetĩkanĩtie na ũrutani ũrĩa mwega wa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ na ũrutani ũrĩa wa kwĩyamũrĩra Ngai-rĩ,
If any man teach otherwise, and consenteth not to the wholesome wordes of our Lord Iesus Christ, and to the doctrine, which is according to godlinesse,
4 mũndũ ũcio nĩ mwĩtĩĩi na ndarĩ ũndũ oĩ. Ũcio endete o ngarari itarĩ kĩguni na njũgitano ikoniĩ ciugo iria irehaga ũiru, na ngũĩ, na mĩario mĩũru, na gwĩkũũa maũndũ mooru,
He is puft vp and knoweth nothing, but doteth about questions and strife of words, whereof commeth enuie, strife, railings, euill surmisings,
5 na kũgiana gũtathiraga gatagatĩ ka andũ arĩa marĩ meciiria mooru, arĩa mathirĩirwo nĩ ũhoro-ũrĩa-wa-ma, na arĩa meciiragia atĩ ũhoro wa kwĩyamũrĩra Ngai nĩ njĩra ya gũtũma mũndũ atonge.
Frowarde disputations of men of corrupt mindes and destitute of ye trueth, which thinke that gaine is godlines: from such separate thy selfe.
6 No rĩrĩ, kwĩyamũrĩra Ngai na kũiganwo nĩ kĩrĩa ũrĩ na kĩo, ũcio nĩ ũtonga mũnene.
But godlinesse is great gaine, if a man be content with that he hath.
7 Nĩgũkorwo gũtirĩ kĩndũ twarehire gũkũ thĩ, na gũtirĩ kĩndũ tũngĩhota kũruta kuo.
For we brought nothing into the world, and it is certaine, that we can carie nothing out.
8 No tũngĩgĩa na irio, na tũgĩe na nguo-rĩ, no tũiganwo nĩcio.
Therefore when wee haue foode and raiment, let vs therewith be content.
9 Andũ arĩa mendaga gũtonga-rĩ, nĩmagũũaga magerio-inĩ o na mũtego-inĩ wa merirĩria maingĩ ma ũrimũ ma kũmathũkia, marĩa mamagũithagia mwanangĩko-inĩ, makamaniina.
For they that will be rich, fall into tentation and snares, and into many foolish and noysome lustes, which drowne men in perdition and destruction.
10 Tondũ kwenda mbeeca nĩkĩo kĩhumo kĩa mĩthemba yothe ya ũũru. Andũ amwe nĩ ũndũ wa kwenda mbeeca mũno-rĩ, nĩmatigĩte wĩtĩkio, na magetheeca ngoro na kĩeha kĩingĩ.
For the desire of money is the roote of all euill, which while some lusted after, they erred from the faith, and pearced themselues through with many sorowes.
11 No wee mũndũ wa Ngai-rĩ, ũrĩra maũndũ macio mothe, na ũthingatage ũthingu, na kwĩyamũrĩra Ngai, na wĩtĩkio, na wendani, na gũkirĩrĩria, na ũhooreri.
But thou, O man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousnesse, godlines, faith, loue, patience, and meekenes.
12 Rũaga mbaara ĩrĩa njega ya wĩtĩkio. Rũmia ũhoro wa muoyo wa tene na tene o ũrĩa wetĩirwo rĩrĩa woimbũrire wega wĩtĩkio waku mbere ya aira aingĩ. (aiōnios )
Fight the good fight of faith: lay holde of eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. (aiōnios )
13 Ningĩ ndĩ mbere ya Ngai, ũrĩa ũheaga indo ciothe muoyo, na mbere ya Kristũ Jesũ, ũrĩa warutire ũira mwega rĩrĩa aarutaga ũira mbere ya Pontio Pilato, nĩ ngũgwatha atĩ
I charge thee in the sight of God, who quickeneth all thinges, and before Iesus Christ, which vnder Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession,
14 ũrũmagie rĩathani rĩu wathĩtwo narĩo ũtarĩ na kĩmeni kana ũcuuke nginya hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ akoonanio,
That thou keepe this commandement without spot, and vnrebukeable, vntill the appearing of our Lord Iesus Christ,
15 ũrĩa Ngai akoonania ihinda rĩake rĩakinya. Ngai ũcio-rĩ, nĩwe mwene hinya ũrĩa wa kũgoocagwo, na nowe Mũthamaki wa athamaki, na Mwathani wa aathani.
Which in due time hee shall shewe, that is blessed and Prince onely, the King of Kings and Lord of Lordes,
16 Ningĩ nowe wiki ũtũũraga muoyo ũrĩa ũtathiraga, na agatũũra ũtheri-inĩ ũrĩa gũtarĩ mũndũ ũngĩhota kũũkuhĩrĩria. Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũrĩ wamuona kana ũngĩhota kũmuona. Nake arotĩĩagwo, na arogĩa na wathani ũrĩa ũtathiraga nginya tene. Ameni. (aiōnios )
Who onely hath immortalitie, and dwelleth in the light that none can attaine vnto, whom neuer man sawe, neither can see, vnto whome bee honour and power euerlasting, Amen. (aiōnios )
17 Athaga andũ arĩa itonga gũkũ thĩ ĩno tũrĩ matigage kwĩgaatha kana kũiga mwĩhoko wao harĩ thĩinĩ wa ũtonga ũcio ũtamenyagĩrwo, no maigage mwĩhoko wao harĩ Ngai ũrĩa ũtũheaga indo ciothe na ũtaana, nĩguo itũkenagie. (aiōn )
Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not high minded, and that they trust not in vncertaine riches, but in the liuing God, (which giueth vs aboundantly, all things to enioy) (aiōn )
18 Maathe mekage wega, na maingĩhĩrwo nĩ gwĩkaga ciĩko njega, na matuĩke andũ a gũtugana na kũgayagĩra andũ indo ciao na ũtaana.
That they doe good, and be riche in good woorkes, and readie to distribute, and comunicate,
19 Meka ũguo nĩmarĩĩigagĩra kĩgĩĩna kĩao ene kĩrĩ mũthingi mũrũmu nĩ ũndũ wa mahinda marĩa magooka, na nĩgeetha mahote kwĩgwatĩra muoyo, na nĩguo muoyo ũrĩa wa ma kũna.
Laying vp in store for themselues a good foundation against the time to come, that they may obteine eternall life.
20 Atĩrĩrĩ, Timotheo, gitagĩra kĩrĩa wĩhokeirwo. Wĩthemage inegene rĩa arĩa matetigĩrĩte Ngai, na ngarari cia mathugunda ma maheeni marĩa matuagwo atĩ nĩmo ũmenyo na ti ũmenyo kũrĩ.
O Timotheus, keepe that which is committed vnto thee, and auoide prophane and vaine babblings, and oppositios of science falsely so called,
21 Andũ amwe metĩkĩtie atĩ marĩ na ũmenyo ũcio nĩmatũgũũgĩte na makoima wĩtĩkio-inĩ. Wega wa Ngai ũrogĩa na inyuĩ.
Which while some professe, they haue erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee, Amen. ‘The first Epistle to Timotheus, written from Laodicea, which is the chiefest citie of Phrygia Pacaciana.’
