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.
As many as are servants under a yoke, their own masters worthy of all honour let them reckon, that the name of God and the teaching may not be evil 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 those having believing masters, let them not slight [them], because they are brethren, but rather let them serve, because they are stedfast and beloved, who of the benefit are partaking. These things be teaching and exhorting;
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 one be teaching otherwise, and do not consent to sound words — those of our Lord Jesus Christ — and to the teaching according to piety,
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 proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and word-striving, out of which doth come envy, strife, evil-speakings, evil-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.
wranglings of men wholly corrupted in mind, and destitute of the truth, supposing the piety to be gain; depart from such;
6 No rĩrĩ, kwĩyamũrĩra Ngai na kũiganwo nĩ kĩrĩa ũrĩ na kĩo, ũcio nĩ ũtonga mũnene.
but it is great gain — the piety with contentment;
7 Nĩgũkorwo gũtirĩ kĩndũ twarehire gũkũ thĩ, na gũtirĩ kĩndũ tũngĩhota kũruta kuo.
for nothing did we bring into the world — [it is] manifest that we are able to carry nothing out;
8 No tũngĩgĩa na irio, na tũgĩe na nguo-rĩ, no tũiganwo nĩcio.
but having food and raiment — with these we shall suffice ourselves;
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.
and those wishing to be rich, do fall into temptation and a snare, and many desires, foolish and hurtful, that sink men into ruin 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 a root of all the evils is the love of money, which certain longing for did go astray from the faith, and themselves did pierce through with many sorrows;
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.
and thou, O man of God, these things flee, and pursue righteousness, piety, faith, love, endurance, meekness;
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 g166)
be striving the good strife of the faith, be laying hold on the life age-during, to which also thou wast called, and didst profess the right profession before many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
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, before God, who is making all things alive, and of Christ Jesus, who did testify before Pontius Pilate the right profession,
14 ũrũmagie rĩathani rĩu wathĩtwo narĩo ũtarĩ na kĩmeni kana ũcuuke nginya hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ akoonanio,
that thou keep the command unspotted, unblameable, till the manifestation of our Lord Jesus 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 His own times He shall shew — the blessed and only potentate, the King of the kings and Lord of the lords,
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 g166)
who only is having immortality, dwelling in light unapproachable, whom no one of men did see, nor is able to see, to whom [is] honour and might age-during! Amen. (aiōnios g166)
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 g165)
Those rich in the present age charge thou not to be high-minded, nor to hope in the uncertainty of riches, but in the living God, who is giving to us all things richly for enjoyment; — (aiōn g165)
18 Maathe mekage wega, na maingĩhĩrwo nĩ gwĩkaga ciĩko njega, na matuĩke andũ a gũtugana na kũgayagĩra andũ indo ciao na ũtaana.
to do good, to be rich in good works, to be ready to impart, willing to communicate,
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.
treasuring up to themselves a right foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on the life age-during.
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, the thing entrusted guard thou, avoiding the profane vain-words and opposition of the falsely-named knowledge,
21 Andũ amwe metĩkĩtie atĩ marĩ na ũmenyo ũcio nĩmatũgũũgĩte na makoima wĩtĩkio-inĩ. Wega wa Ngai ũrogĩa na inyuĩ.
which certain professing — concerning the faith did swerve; the grace [is] with you. Amen.
