1 Timotheo 6
1 Bhona bhanu bhali emwalo ya ingurwema lwa abhagaya bhalole abhakulu bhwebhwe kwe echibhalo, bhakolege kutyo koleleki lisina lya Nyamuanga na ameigisho gasiga okufumwa.
Let as many as are bondservants under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and the doctrine not be blasphemed.
2 Abhagaya bhanu bhali na abhakulu bhebhwe bhali bhekilisha bhasiga okubhagaya kunsonga ati ni bhaili bhebhwe. Tali bhabhakolele emilimu muno. Kulwokubha bhanu abhakolelwa emilimu ni bhekilisha na bhana elyenda. Nuwiigishe no okulasha emisango jinu
Those who have believing masters, let them not despise them because they are brothers, but rather let them serve them, because those who partake of the benefit are believing and beloved. Teach and exhort these things.
3 Akabha alio omunu undi neigisha kwo okuyabhisha na atakwikilishanya na obhutangasha bhwe echimali, bhunu bhusokele ku Yesu Kristo, na labha kalema eliigisho linu elitangasha okuja kwilamya.
If anyone teaches a different doctrine and doesn’t consent to sound words, the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness,
4 Mbe omunu oyo kekuyala atakumenya chonachona. Kemela okusamba no okuyakana ne emisango. Emisango ejo ejibhula olwiso, obhuyombo, amafumi, okwigata ne ebhibhibhi,
he is conceited, knowing nothing, but obsessed with arguments, disputes, and word battles, from which come envy, strife, insulting, evil suspicions,
5 na obhusambagani bhwa bhuli mwanya agati ya abhanu abho bhanyamukile obhwenge. Abhasiga echimali, Abhatoga ati okulamya ni njila yokubhona ebhinu.
constant friction of people of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. Withdraw yourself from such.
6 Mbe intungwa yokulamya no okwiyungwa kuli na ifaida nene.
But godliness with contentment is great gain.
7 Kunsonga chitejile na chona chona kuchalo. Nolwo chitakutula kugega chona chona okusoka kuchalo.
For we brought nothing into the world, and we certainly can’t carry anything out.
8 Kulwejo, chiyungwe ne ebhilyo na jingubho jinu chili najo.
But having food and clothing, we will be content with that.
9 Mbe bhanu bhalibhaga ne ebhinu bhaligwa mumasakwa, na mumutego. Abhagwa mubhufila bhwafu na inamba mbibhi, na muchinu chona chona chinu echikola abhanu bhawelelele mu kusingalika no okunyamuka.
But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation, a snare, and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as drown men in ruin and destruction.
10 Kulwokubha okwenda jimpilya ni bhwambilo bhwo okwenda jimbaga jona eja amabhibhi. Abhanu bhanu abhanambalila ago, bhali kumbali ne elikilisha na abheyocha abhene kwo obhusulumbaye bhwafu.
For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
11 Nawe awe omunu wa Nyamuanga, nubhe kula na amagambo ago. Nulubhe obhulengelesi, lilamya, elikilisha, elyenda, okwikomesha no obhufula.
But you, man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.
12 Nulwane obhulemo bhwekisi kulikilisha. Nugwatilile obhulame bhwa akajanende bhunu ubhilikiliwe. Kulwa injuno inu wasosishe ubhubhambasi imbele ya abhanu bhafu kulwe echinu chakisi. (aiōnios g166)
Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and you confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
13 Nakuyana echilagilo chinu imbele ya Nyamuanga, oyo kangalila ebhinu bhibhone okulama, na imbele ya Yesu Kristo, unu abhwiliye echimali echo Pontio Pilato:
I command you before God who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus who before Pontius Pilate testified the good confession,
14 Gwatilila echilagilo ukomee, obhutabha na amashaka, okukingila okusubha kwo Omukama weswe Yesu Kristo.
that you keep the commandment without spot, blameless until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
15 Nyamuanga alitula abhwelu okuja kwaye ku katungu kekisi, Nyamuanga owalibhando, amanaga genyele, Omukama unu kakama, na Lata bhugenyi unu katangasha.
which at the right time he will show, who is the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords.
16 Omwene enyele kalama akajanende, ekaye mubhwelu bhunu bhutakulebhelelwa. Ataliwo omunu unu katula okumulola nolwo okumuta muliso. Kumwene chiliwo echibhalo no obhutulo bwa akajanende. Amina. (aiōnios g166)
He alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen nor can see, to whom be honor and eternal power. Amen. (aiōnios g166)
17 Nubhwile abhanibhi bhanu bhali muchalo chinu olyanu bhasiga okwikuya nolwo okutula obhwiikanyo bhwebhwe mubhunibhi, bhunu bhutali na bhusimbagililo, tali bhatule obhwiikanyo bhwebhwe ku Nyamuanga, unu kachiyana bhuli chinu echokuchikondelesha. (aiōn g165)
Charge those who are rich in this present age that they not be arrogant, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on the living God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy; (aiōn g165)
18 Nubhalagilile okukola ebhyekisi, bhanibhe okusoka kubhikolwa bhyekisi, bhabhe no obhwila no okutambula abhandi.
that they do good, that they be rich in good works, that they be ready to distribute, willing to share;
19 Munjila eyo abhebhikila ebhinu lwo omusingi mkomeye ku nsiku jinu ejija imbele, koleleki bhagwatilile obhulame bhwe echimali.
laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold of eternal life.
20 Timoteo, nuchilinde chinu uyabhilwe. Ikenga no obhulomelesi bhwe echifila no obhuyakani bhwa jimamba jinu ejitogwa obhumenyi kwo olubheyi.
Timothy, guard that which is committed to you, turning away from the empty chatter and oppositions of what is falsely called knowledge,
21 Abhanu abhandi abhalibhasha amagambo ganu, na bhabhulilwe elikilisha. Echigongo chibhe amwi nawe.
which some profess, and thus have wandered from the faith. Grace be with you. Amen.
