1 Ugbu a, ụmụnna, banyere oge na mgbe ihe ndị a ga-emezu. Echeghị m na ọ dị mkpa i degara unu akwụkwọ.
But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write to you.
2 Dị ka unu maara nke ọma na ụbọchị Onyenwe anyị ga-abịa dị ka onye ohi si abịa nʼabalị.
For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
3 Mgbe ha ga na-asị udo, na nchekwa dị, mgbe ahụ, na mberede, mbibi ga-abịakwasị ha dị ka ihe mgbu sị adakwasị nwanyị ime na-eme, nke ga-eme ka onye ọbụla ghara inwe ike ịgbapụ.
For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
4 Ma unu onwe unu, ụmụnna, anọghị nʼọchịchịrị, nke ụbọchị ahụ ga-abịakwasị unu na mberede dịka onye ohi.
But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
5 Unu niile bụ ụmụ nke ìhè na ụmụ nke ehihie, anyị abụkwaghị nke ọchịchịrị maọbụ nke abalị.
Ye are all children of light, and children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
6 Nʼihi nke a, ka anyị ghara ịdị na-arahụ ụra dị ka ndị ọzọ, kama ka anyị mụrụ anya ka anya dokwaa anyị.
Therefore let us not sleep, as [do] others; but let us watch and be sober.
7 Nʼihi na abalị bụ mgbe ndị na-arahụ ụra ji arahụ ụra. Ọ bụkwa nʼabalị ka ndị mmanya na-egbu na-aṅụbiga mmanya oke.
For they that sleep, sleep in the night; and they that are drunken, are drunken in the night.
8 Ma ebe anyị niile bụ ndị nke ihe, ka anyị bụrụ ndị anya doro, ndị yi okwukwe na ịhụnanya dịka ihe ikpuchi obi, yikwasịkwa olileanya nke nzọpụta dị ka okpu igwe.
But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breast-plate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.
9 Nʼihi na Chineke akwadebeghị ikpe ọmụma na egwu nye anyị. Kama ka anyị nweta nzọpụta site nʼokwukwe anyị nwere nʼOnyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst.
For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
10 Ọ nwụrụ nʼihi anyị ka ọ bụrụ, ma anyị dị ndụ ma anyị nwụrụ anwụ, anyị ga-esoro ya dịrị ndụ.
Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
11 Ya mere, na-akasịrịtanụ onwe unu obi. Na-emekwanụ ihe ọbụla ga-ewuli ibe unu elu dị ka unu si eme.
Wherefore, comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.
12 Anyị na-arịọsị unu ike, ụmụnna, ka unu na-asọpụrụ ndị niile na-adọgbu onwe ha nʼọrụ nʼihi unu, ndị ahụ na-elekọta unu nʼime ọrụ Onyenwe anyị, na ndị ahụ na-adụ unu ọdụ.
And we beseech you, brethren, to know them who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;
13 Ka unu na-akwanyere ha ugwu site nʼịhụnanya nʼihi ụdị ọrụ ha na-arụ. Ka unu na mmadụ ibe unu birikwa nʼudo.
And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. [And] be at peace among yourselves.
14 Ma ugbu a, anyị na-arịọ unu, ụmụnna, na-adụnụ ndị na-anọ nkịtị ọdụ, na-agbanụ ndị dara mba ume, nyerenụ ndị na-adịghị ike aka, nwekwanụ ndidi nʼebe ha niile nọ.
Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are disorderly, comfort the feeble-minded, support the weak, be patient towards all [men].
15 Ka onye ọbụla ghara inyeghachi mmadụ ibe ya ihe ọjọọ nʼọnọdụ ihe ọjọọ. Kama gbalịsienụ ike ime ezi ihe nʼebe ibe unu nọ na nʼebe mmadụ niile nọ.
See that none render evil for evil to any [man]; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all [men].
16 Na-aṅụrịnụ ọṅụ oge niile.
Rejoice evermore.
17 Na-ekpenụ ekpere oge niile na-esepụghị aka.
Pray without ceasing.
18 Na-enyenụ ekele mgbe niile banyere ihe niile, nʼihi na nke a bụ ọchịchọ Chineke banyere unu ndị bụ nke Kraịst Jisọs.
In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
19 Unu emenyụla ọkụ Mmụọ Nsọ.
Quench not the spirit.
20 Ọzọ unu eledala okwu ndị amụma anya.
Despise not prophesyings.
21 Kama na-anwalenụ ihe niile ma na-ejidesikwanụ ihe niile dị mma aka ike.
Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
22 Wezuganụ onwe unu nʼihe ọjọọ niile.
Abstain from all appearance of evil.
23 Ka Chineke ya onwe ya, bụ Chineke nke udo, doo unu nsọ nʼụzọ niile. Ka e debezuo mmụọ unu na mkpụrụobi unu na anụ ahụ unu nsọ, na-enweghị ntụpọ ọbụla ruo ụbọchị ọbịbịa Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst.
And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and [I pray God] your whole spirit and soul and body may be preserved blameless to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
24 Onye ahụ kpọrọ unu ga-emezu ihe ndị a, nʼihi na ọ bụ onye kwesiri ntụkwasị obi.
Faithful [is] he that calleth you, who also will do [it].
25 Biko ụmụnna, na-ekperenụ anyị ekpere.
Brethren, pray for us.
26 Werenụ isurita ọnụ dị nsọ na-ekele ụmụnna anyị dum.
Greet all the brethren with a holy kiss.
27 Iwu m na-enye unu site nʼaha Onyenwe anyị bụ ka unu gụpụta akwụkwọ a nʼihu ụmụnna niile.
I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read to all the holy brethren.
28 Ka amara Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst dịnyere unu niile.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you. Amen.
