Προς Τιμοθεον Α΄ 5
1 Πρεσβυτέρῳ μὴ ἐπιπλήξῃς, ἀλλὰ παρακάλει ὡς πατέρα· νεωτέρους, ὡς ἀδελφούς·
Usinjwangili ng'osi nsee. Bali mpelayi muoyo kama Dadi wakhu. Ubhapelayi muoyo bhasongolo bhakigosi kana kwamba ndo bhalongobhu.
2 πρεσβυτέρας, ὡς μητέρας· νεωτέρας, ὡς ἀδελφάς, ἐν πάσῃ ἁγνείᾳ.
Ubhapelayi muoyo bhadala bhaseya kama bhanyinuakhu ni bhadala bhah'enja kama bhal'ombobhu kwa bhunofu bhuoha.
3 Χήρας τίμα τὰς ὄντως χήρας.
Bhaheshimuajhi bhajane, bhala bhabhajhele bhajane nesu.
4 Εἰ δέ τις χήρα τέκνα ἢ ἔκγονα ἔχει, μανθανέτωσαν πρῶτον τὸν ἴδιον οἶκον εὐσεβεῖν, καὶ ἀμοιβὰς ἀποδιδόναι τοῖς προγόνοις· τοῦτο γάρ ἐστι καλὸν καὶ ἀπόδεκτον ἐνώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ.
Lakini kama mjane ajhe ni bhana au fij'okholo, bhalekayi hosi bhakimanyisiajhi kulasya litengo kwa bhanu bha munyumba jha bhene. Bhalekayi bhabhapelayi bhazazi bha bhene manofu, kwa kujha ejhe jhipendesya palongolo pa K'yara.
5 Ἡ δὲ ὄντως χήρα καὶ μεμονωμένη ἤλπικεν ἐπὶ τὸν Θεόν, καὶ προσμένει ταῖς δεήσεσι καὶ ταῖς προσευχαῖς νυκτὸς καὶ ἡμέρας.
Lakini mjane nesu ndo jhola jhaalekibhu muene. Ni muene ibheka litegemelu lya muene kwa K'yara. Magono ghoha idumu mu sala ni maombesi kiru ni musi.
6 Ἡ δὲ σπαταλῶσα, ζῶσα τέθνηκε.
Hata naha, n'dala jhola jhaitama kwa anasa afuili, ingawa ikeka.
7 Καὶ ταῦτα παράγγελλε, ἵνα ἀνεπίληπτοι ὦσιν.
Na ughahubiriajhi agha mambo ili kwamba bhasijhi ni lawama.
8 Εἰ δέ τις τῶν ἰδίων καὶ μάλιστα τῶν οἰκείων οὐ προνοεῖ, τὴν πίστιν ἤρνηται, καὶ ἔστιν ἀπίστου χείρων.
Ila kama munu abhatunzili lepi bhalongomunu, hususani bhala bhabhajhele mu nyumba jha muene ajhibelili imani na ndo mbibhi kuliko munu jhaabelikukiera.
9 Χήρα καταλεγέσθω μὴ ἔλαττον ἐτῶν ἑξήκοντα, γεγονυῖα ἑνὸς ἀνδρὸς γυνή,
Basi n'dala alembekisibhwajhi mu orodha kama mjane akajhelayi ni umri bhwabhubeli kup'ong'oka miaka sitini na ndo n'dala ghwa n'gosi mmonga.
10 ἐν ἔργοις καλοῖς μαρτυρουμένη, εἰ ἐτεκνοτρόφησεν, εἰ ἐξενοδόχησεν, εἰ ἁγίων πόδας ἔνιψεν, εἰ θλιβομένοις ἐπήρκεσεν, εἰ παντὶ ἔργῳ ἀγαθῷ ἐπηκολούθησε.
Lazima ajhelayi amanyikene kwa matendo manofu, ikajhelayi abhajhangalili bhana, au ajhe mkarimu kwa bhahesya, au asukili magolo gha bhabhiamini, au abhatangatili ambabho bhatesibhweghe, au akihomisi kwa kihengu lyolyoha linofu.
11 Νεωτέρας δὲ χήρας παραιτοῦ· ὅταν γὰρ καταστρηνιάσωσι τοῦ Χριστοῦ, γαμεῖν θέλουσιν,
Lakini kwa bhala bhajane bhahenja, belayi kubhalembesya mu orodha jha bhajane. Kwa kujha bhakajhingilayi mu matamanio gha kimb'el'e dhidi jha Kristu, bhilonda kugegikibhwa.
12 ἔχουσαι κρίμα, ὅτι τὴν πρώτην πίστιν ἠθέτησαν.
Kwa njela ejhe ijhingila mu hatia kwa kujha idenya kwih'omesya kwa bhene kwa kubhuandu.
13 Ἅμα δὲ καὶ ἀργαὶ μανθάνουσι, περιερχόμεναι τὰς οἰκίας, οὐ μόνον δὲ ἀργαί, ἀλλὰ καὶ φλύαροι καὶ περίεργοι, λαλοῦσαι τὰ μὴ δέοντα.
Na kabhele kujhingila mu mazoezi gha uvivu. Bhene bhisyonghoka nyumba kwa nyumba. Sio tu bhakhololofu bali, kabhele bhasomani na bhabhijhingila mambo gha bhangi. Bhene bhijobha mambo ghaghilondekalepi kughajobha.
14 Βούλομαι οὖν νεωτέρας γαμεῖν, τεκνογονεῖν, οἰκοδεσποτεῖν, μηδεμίαν ἀφορμὴν διδόναι τῷ ἀντικειμένῳ λοιδορίας χάριν.
Henu nene nilonda bhadala bhah'enja bhagegikibhwajhi, bhahogolayi bhana, bhajhemelelayi nyumba sya bhene, ili kubelakumpela adui nafasi jha kututakila kwa kubhomba dhambi.
15 Ἤδη γάρ τινες ἐξετράπησαν ὀπίσω τοῦ Σατανᾶ.
Kwa ndabha baadhi jha bhene bhan'geukili shetani.
16 Εἴ τις πιστὸς ἢ πιστὴ ἔχει χήρας, ἐπαρκείτω αὐταῖς, καὶ μὴ βαρείσθω ἡ ἐκκλησία, ἵνα ταῖς ὄντως χήραις ἐπαρκέσῃ.
Kama n'dala jhejhioha akiera ajhe ni bhajane, basi na abhatangatilayi, ili kanisa lisilemebhwi, ili libhwesiajhi kubhatangatila bhala bhabhajhele bhajane nesu.
17 Οἱ καλῶς προεστῶτες πρεσβύτεροι διπλῆς τιμῆς ἀξιούσθωσαν, μάλιστα οἱ κοπιῶντες ἐν λόγῳ καὶ διδασκαλίᾳ.
Basi bhaseya bhala bhabhitabhwala kinofu bhabhalangibhwayi kujha bhilondeka litengo marajhioha, hasa bhala bhabhikishughulisha ni kumanyisya lilobhi lya K'yara.
18 Λέγει γὰρ ἡ γραφή, Βοῦν ἀλοῶντα οὐ φιμώσεις· καί, Ἄξιος ὁ ἐργάτης τοῦ μισθοῦ αὐτοῦ.
Kwa kujha majhandiku ghijobha, “Usimfumbi n'singu ng'ombe pailya nafaka,” na “Nimbomba mahengu ilondeka mshahara ghwa muene.”
19 Κατὰ πρεσβυτέρου κατηγορίαν μὴ παραδέχου, ἐκτὸς εἰ μὴ ἐπὶ δύο ἢ τριῶν μαρτύρων.
Usijhambeleli mashtaka dhidi jha nseya isipokujha kujhe ni mashahidi bhabhele au bhadatu.
20 Τοὺς ἁμαρτάνοντας ἐνώπιον πάντων ἔλεγχε, ἵνα καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ φόβον ἔχωσι.
Bhaonyajhi bhakosaji palongolo pa bhanu bhoha ili bhangi bhabhasiele labda bhibetakutila.
21 Διαμαρτύρομαι ἐνώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ καὶ τῶν ἐκλεκτῶν ἀγγέλων, ἵνα ταῦτα φυλάξῃς χωρὶς προκρίματος, μηδὲν ποιῶν κατὰ πρόσκλισιν.
Nikulaghisya kwa dhati palongolo pa K'yara ni palongolo pa Kristu Yesu, ni malaika bhateule, kwamba usitunzi malaghisu agha bila ubaguzi bhwobhwoha, ni kwamba usibhombi lijambo lyolyoha kwa upendelelu.
22 Χεῖρας ταχέως μηδενὶ ἐπιτίθει, μηδὲ κοινώνει ἁμαρτίαις ἀλλοτρίαις· σεαυτὸν ἁγνὸν τήρει.
Usimbekeli munu jhejhioha mabhoko haraka. Usishiriki dhambi jha munu jhongi. Jhilondeka kwitunza ghwa muene ujhelayi kinofu.
23 Μηκέτι ὑδροπότει, ἀλλ᾿ οἴνῳ ὀλίγῳ χρῶ, διὰ τὸν στόμαχόν σου καὶ τὰς πυκνάς σου ἀσθενείας.
Wilondeka lepi kunywa masi ghene. Badala jhiake, unyuajhi mvinyo bhudebe kwandabha jha lileme ni matamu gha bhebhe gha mara kwa mara.
24 Τινῶν ἀνθρώπων αἱ ἁμαρτίαι πρόδηλοί εἰσι, προάγουσαι εἰς κρίσιν· τισὶ δὲ καὶ ἐπακολουθοῦσιν.
Dhambi sya baadhi jha bhanu simanyikana kwa bhuwazi, ni kubhalongolela mu hukumu. Lakini baadhi jha dhambi sikisya baadajhe.
25 Ὡσαύτως καὶ τὰ καλὰ ἔργα πρόδηλά ἐστι· καὶ τὰ ἄλλως ἔχοντα κρυβῆναι οὐ δύναται.
Fefuefu, baadhi jha mahengu, manofu ghimanyikana kwa bhuwazi, lakini hata samana sibetalepi kwifigha.
