1 Timoti 4

1 Hu'neanagi Ruotge Avamumo huama huno nerasmie, mago'a kna esnia knafina mago'amo'za zamentintia atre'za evunerami'za, rezmatagahu avamu'ene, hankro'mofo naneke rempi huzamisage'za zamagesa anteza antahigahaze.

But the Spirit distinctly says that in later times there will be some who will fall away from the faith, and devote their attention to misleading spirits, and to the teaching of demons,

2 Havige vahe'mo'za zamagra hu'za, amanahu vahe mani'none nehaza vahe'mo'za havi kereti rezmatga nehu'za, knare zamagu zamagesa zamagu'afi me'neana, havi kereti zamagu'a kre hagege nehaze.

who will make use of the hypocrisy of lying teachers. These people’s consciences are seared,

3 Ana vahe'mo'za arave osugahaze nehu'za, mago'a kavera oneho hanazanagi, tamage ke'arema tamentinti nehutma nentahimota Anumzamo'ma tro hunte'nea zana muse hunenteta susu huta erigahaze.

and they discourage marriage and enjoin abstinence from certain kinds of food; though God created these foods to be enjoyed thankfully by those who hold the faith and have attained a full knowledge of the truth.

4 Na'ankure hakare'zama Anumzamo'ma tro hunte'nea zamo'a, knare hu'negu mago'zana otreta tamagra susu hunentetma amne erigahaze.

Everything created by God is good, and there in nothing that need be rejected – provided only that it is received thankfully;

5 Na'ankure Anumzamofo ke'mo'ene, nunamumo azeri agru hu'ne.

for it is consecrated by God’s blessing and by prayer.

6 Hagi ama nanekea hanavetinka monopi mani'naza kafuhe'ima zamasamisunka, kagra knare hunka Krais Jisasi eri'za ne' nemaninka, hanavetinka hakare zupa kamentintifina nehagenka maka knare antahi'zana erinka amage'ma ante'zampina hagegahane.

Put all this before the followers, and you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, sustained by the precepts of the faith and of that good teaching by which you have guided your life.

7 Hu'neanagi kagra maninka tavava'nemofo knihe kerera fra ovazio, hagi kagra knaka'ane, hanaveka'a Anumzamofo avu'avapi kazeri hanavetio.

As for profane legends and old wives’ tales, leave them alone. Train yourself to lead a religious life;

8 Hanki amega tavufga azeri hanaveti hanuna zamo'a, osi'a knafi taza hu'zana eri gahunanagi, Anumzamofo avu'ava'ma (godliness) hanuna zana huvempa hu'negu meni mani'zampina taza nehuno, henkama esia mani'zampinena taza hugahie.

for while the training of the body is of service in some respects, religion is of service in all, carrying with it, as it does, a promise of life both here and hereafter.

9 Ama nanekea tamage naneke me'negu antahi hanavetita erisnune.

How true that saying is and worthy of the fullest acceptance!

10 Amana zante amuho huta eri'zana enerita maraguzanetune, na'ankure kasefa huno mani'nea Anumzamo'ma esanigu tagra tamentinti nehune. Agra mika zamentinti nehaza vahe zamagu'vazino zamahokehe nere. (Savior)

With that aim we toil and struggle, for we have set our hopes on the living God, who is the Savior of all, and especially of those who hold the faith.

11 Menima negasamua kea hu ankerenka huzamige'za amage anteho.

Remember these things in your teaching.

12 Atregeno mago vahe'mo'a nehaza ne' mani'nane huno kagehenkamu otreno, hianagi zamentintima nehaza nagatera avame zankna hunka keka'afine, kavukvapine, zamesi zamante zane, kamentintifine, agru hu'zane, huzmeri hugahane.

Do not let anyone look down on you because you are young, but, by your conversation, your conduct, your love, your faith, and your purity, be an example to those who hold the faith.

13 Nagra egahuanki, hakare vahera zamazeri atru hunka avontafera hamprinka mono nanekea huama hunka rempi huzamio.

Until I come, apply yourself to public reading, preaching, and teaching.

14 Kagra kagera okanitfa huo, Anumza naneke huama (profesi) hazagenka anampinti Avamu'mofo muse'za (gift) erinke'za, mono kva vahe'mo'za zamaza ante'za eri'za eriogu huhampri kante'naze.

Do not neglect the divine gift within you, which was given you, amid many a prediction, when the hands of the church elders were laid on your head.

15 Mika zupa kagra ama erizana kegava nehunka, anampinka eri'zana enerisankeno nena'a fore hanige'za vahe'mo'za kegahaze.

Practice these things, devote yourself to them, so that your progress may be plain to everyone.

16 Kagrama kavukvama nehanazana kegava negrinka, rempima vahe'ma hunezmina kenena kegava nehunka, maka zupa ana zanke hunka nevanankeno'a, Anumzamo kagrira kagunevazino, keka'a antahinamokizmia zamagu'vazigahie.

Look to yourself as well as to your teaching. Persevere in this, for your doing so will mean salvation for yourself as well as for your hearers.
