Λοιπὸν οὖν, ἀδελφοί, ἐρωτῶμεν ὑμᾶς καὶ παρακαλοῦμεν ἐν ˚Κυρίῳ ˚Ἰησοῦ, καθὼς παρελάβετε παρʼ ἡμῶν, τὸ πῶς δεῖ ὑμᾶς περιπατεῖν καὶ ἀρέσκειν ˚Θεῷ (καθὼς καὶ περιπατεῖτε), ἵνα περισσεύητε μᾶλλον.
2 Kulwo kubha mumenyele na melesho- ki ganu chanyakile okulabha ku Latabhugenyi Yesu.
Οἴδατε γὰρ τίνας παραγγελίας ἐδώκαμεν ὑμῖν διὰ τοῦ ˚Κυρίου ˚Ἰησοῦ.

Τοῦτο γάρ ἐστιν θέλημα τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ, ὁ ἁγιασμὸς ὑμῶν, ἀπέχεσθαι ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ τῆς πορνείας,
4 ati bhuli munu wemwe kamenya okumutunga omugasi wae omwene mu bhulengelesi ne chibhalo.
εἰδέναι ἕκαστον ὑμῶν τὸ ἑαυτοῦ σκεῦος, κτᾶσθαι ἐν ἁγιασμῷ καὶ τιμῇ,
5 Wasiga kubha no mugasi kulwa inamba yo mubhili (lwa bha Maanga bhanu bhatamumenya Nyamuanga).
μὴ ἐν πάθει ἐπιθυμίας, καθάπερ καὶ τὰ ἔθνη τὰ μὴ εἰδότα τὸν ˚Θεόν,

τὸ μὴ ὑπερβαίνειν καὶ πλεονεκτεῖν ἐν τῷ πράγματι τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ, διότι ἔκδικος ˚Κύριος περὶ πάντων τούτων, καθὼς καὶ προείπαμεν ὑμῖν καὶ διεμαρτυράμεθα.
7 Kulwo kubha Latabhugenyi atachibhilikiye mu bhujabhi nawe mu bhulengelesi.
Οὐ γὰρ ἐκάλεσεν ἡμᾶς ὁ ˚Θεὸς ἐπὶ ἀκαθαρσίᾳ, ἀλλʼ ἐν ἁγιασμῷ.
8 Kulwejo unu kalilema linu atakubhalema abhanu, nawe kamulema Nyamuanga, unu kabhayana Mwoyo Mwelu waye.
Τοιγαροῦν ὁ ἀθετῶν, οὐκ ἄνθρωπον ἀθετεῖ, ἀλλὰ τὸν ˚Θεὸν, τὸν διδόντα τὸ ˚Πνεῦμα αὐτοῦ τὸ Ἅγιον εἰς ὑμᾶς.
9 Okulubhana ne lyenda lya bhaili, bhutalio bhukene bhwo munu wona wona owo kukwandikila, kulwo kubha mwiigisibhwe na Nyamuanga okwendana emwe abhene-la.
Περὶ δὲ τῆς φιλαδελφίας, οὐ χρείαν ἔχετε γράφειν ὑμῖν, αὐτοὶ γὰρ ὑμεῖς θεοδίδακτοί ἐστε, εἰς τὸ ἀγαπᾶν ἀλλήλους.
10 Ni chimali, mwakolele ganu gone mu bhaili bhanu bhali Makedonia yona, mbe nawe echibhelembelesha, abhaili, mukole no kukilao.
Καὶ γὰρ ποιεῖτε αὐτὸ εἰς πάντας τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς, τοὺς ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ Μακεδονίᾳ. Παρακαλοῦμεν δὲ ὑμᾶς, ἀδελφοί, περισσεύειν μᾶλλον,
11 Echibhelembelesha mubhe no bhulame bhwo bhwolobhe, no kwenda emilimu jemwe no kukola emilimu kwa mabhoko gemwe, lwa kutyo chabhalagiliye.
καὶ φιλοτιμεῖσθαι ἡσυχάζειν καὶ πράσσειν τὰ ἴδια, καὶ ἐργάζεσθαι ταῖς ἰδίαις χερσὶν ὑμῶν, καθὼς ὑμῖν παρηγγείλαμεν,
12 Nukole ganu koleleki mutule okulibhata kisi na muchibhalo mwabho bhanu bhali anja ne likilisha, koleleki wasiga kukeyelwako no bhukene bhwona bhwona.
ἵνα περιπατῆτε εὐσχημόνως πρὸς τοὺς ἔξω, καὶ μηδενὸς χρείαν ἔχητε.

Οὐ θέλομεν δὲ ὑμᾶς ἀγνοεῖν, ἀδελφοί, περὶ τῶν κοιμωμένων, ἵνα μὴ λυπῆσθε, καθὼς καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ, οἱ μὴ ἔχοντες ἐλπίδα.
14 Nolwo chikekilisha ati Yesu afuye no kusuluka lindi, nikwo kutyo Nyamuanga kabhaleta amwi na Yesu kwabho bhanu bhafuye mu mwene.
Εἰ γὰρ πιστεύομεν ὅτι ˚Ἰησοῦς ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἀνέστη, οὕτως καὶ ὁ ˚Θεὸς τοὺς κοιμηθέντας διὰ τοῦ ˚Ἰησοῦ ἄξει σὺν αὐτῷ.
15 Ingulu yago echibhabhwila emwe kwo misango ja Latabhugenyi, ati eswe bhanu chili bhaanga, bhanu chilibhao mu mwanya gwo kuja kwaye Latabhugenyi, ni chimali chitakubhatangatila bhanu bhamamile munfwa.
Τοῦτο γὰρ ὑμῖν λέγομεν ἐν λόγῳ ˚Κυρίου, ὅτι ἡμεῖς οἱ ζῶντες, οἱ περιλειπόμενοι εἰς τὴν παρουσίαν τοῦ ˚Κυρίου, οὐ μὴ φθάσωμεν τοὺς κοιμηθέντας.
16 Kulwo kubha Latabhugenyi omwene alika okusoka mumele. Kaja no bhulaka bhukulu, amwi no bhulaka bhwa malaika mukulu, amwi na ing'ombi ya Nyamuanga, bhanu bhafuye mu Kristo bhalisululwa okwamba.
Ὅτι αὐτὸς ὁ ˚Κύριος ἐν κελεύσματι, ἐν φωνῇ ἀρχαγγέλου, καὶ ἐν σάλπιγγι ˚Θεοῦ, καταβήσεται ἀπʼ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ οἱ νεκροὶ ἐν ˚Χριστῷ ἀναστήσονται πρῶτον,
17 Okumala eswe bhanu chili bhaanga, bhanu chilibha chisigaye, chilibhuganganila bhona mu mele amwi okuja okumulamila Latabhugenyi mulutumba. Mu njila inu chilibha na Latabhugenyi nsiku jona.
ἔπειτα ἡμεῖς οἱ ζῶντες, οἱ περιλειπόμενοι ἅμα σὺν αὐτοῖς, ἁρπαγησόμεθα ἐν νεφέλαις εἰς ἀπάντησιν τοῦ ˚Κυρίου εἰς ἀέρα· καὶ οὕτως πάντοτε σὺν ˚Κυρίῳ ἐσόμεθα.
18 Kulwejo, musilishanyega emwe abhene kwa abhene ku misango jinu.
Ὥστε παρακαλεῖτε ἀλλήλους ἐν τοῖς λόγοις τούτοις.
