Abhaefeso 6
1 Abhana mungwega abhebhusi bhemwe mu Latabhugenyi, kulwokubha bhunu nibhwo echimali.
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
2 “Ubhayega esomwana na nyokomwana”(Kulwokubha chinu nicho echilagilo cho kwamba chinu chili no mulago),
“Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with a promise:
3 “koleleki ubhe na libhando ubhone okwikala bhulame bhulela ingulu ye chalo.”
“that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth.”
4 Nemwe ona bhalata, mutabhakailaga abhana nimubhakola nibhabha na lisungu, nawe, mubhalele kwokubhatongela na mumalagililo ga Latabhugenyi.
You fathers, don’t provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
5 Emwe abhagaya, mubhega bhololo ku bhesebhugenyi bhemwe abhakuchalo anu kwokungwa no kuyalala kwo bhubha kunu okusoka mumiyo jemwe. mubhe bhalengelesi kubhene lwa kutyo muli bhalengelesi ku Kristo.
Servants, be obedient to those who according to the flesh are your masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as to Christ,
6 Okungwa kwemwe bhutabhaga ati bhasobhugenyi bhemwe bhalabhalolaga kwo kubhakondelesha. Nawe, mubhe bhalengesi lwa bhagaya bha Kristo. Mkole Elyenda lya Nyamuanga okusoka mumiyo jemwe,
not in the way of service only when eyes are on you, as men pleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,
7 mubhakolele kwe mioyo jemwe jona, kulwokubha omumukolela Latabhugenyi na atali mwana munu,
with good will doing service as to the Lord and not to men,
8 jibheile mumenye ati muchikolwa chekisi chinu kakola omunu, alilamila echiyanwa okusoka ku Latabhugenyi, akabha abhee mugaya nolo unu ali mwibhule.
knowing that whatever good thing each one does, he will receive the same good again from the Lord, whether he is bound or free.
9 Emwona bhesebhugenyi mukole kutyo kutyo kubhagaya bhemwe. Mutajaga kubhakanga mumenyati omwene unu ali Latabhugenyi wa bhona ni unu ali mulwile. Mumenyati bhutalio bhusolole munda yae.
You masters, do the same things to them, and give up threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no partiality with him.
10 Mbe, mubhe na managa ku Latabhugenyi na mubhutulo bhwa managa gae.
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.
11 Mufwale ebhigwato bhyona bhya Nyamuanga, koleleki mubhone okwimelegulu mubhulige lige bhwa shetani.
Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 Kulwokubha obhulemo bhweswe bhutali bhwa nsagama na nyama, tali ni bhwobhukama no bhuinga bhwo mwoyo nabhatungi bhe chalo cho bhunyamuke ne chisute, ingulu ya masabhwa mulubhala lwo lwile. (aiōn g165)
For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. (aiōn g165)
13 Kulwejo, mufwale ebhigwato bhyona ebhya Nyamuanga, mubhone okukomela ingulu yo bhunyamuke mumwanya gunu omunyamuke. Mukamala bhuli chinu, mulimelegulu.
Therefore put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Mbe mwimeleguluga mutengejeyaye. Mkole kutya mukamala okwibhoya emikanda muchimali no bhulengelesi muchifubha.
Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
15 Mkole kutya mukabha mwafwae okwimalilila mumagulu gemwe go kulasha emisango jo bhwana ejo mulembe.
and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of peace,
16 Bhuli lubhala mugega echuma cho kwikilisha, inu eitula okusimya amakoma ga uliya omubhibhi.
above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one.
17 Mufwale ingofila yo mwelulo no bhupanga bhwo Mwoyo, bhunu bhuli msango gwa Nyamuanga.
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;
18 amwi na lisabha najisala. Musabhwega kwo Mwoyo bhuli mwanya. Kwo lususo lunu mubhega bhengeso bhuli mwanya kwo kwiyumaganya kwona na lisabha ingulu ya bhekilisha bhona.
with all prayer and requests, praying at all times in the Spirit, and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and requests for all the saints.
19 Musabhwe ingulu yani, koleleki niyanibhwe omusango gunu gulafumbula omunwa gwani. Musabhwe ati nimenyesibhwe kwe chimali chinu chiselekele ingulu ye misango jo bhwana.
Pray for me, that utterance may be given to me in opening my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the Good News,
20 Na ingulu ye misango jo bhwana anye nili mutangasi unu nibhoelwe olunyolo koleleki munda yebhwe naike kwa libhasi lwa kutyo jinyiile okwaika.
for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
21 Nawe emwe ona mumenye emisango jani nakutyo ejigendelela, Tikiko omuili wani omwendwa no mukosi mulengelesi mu Latabhugenyi, kabhamenyesha bhuli chinu.
But that you also may know my affairs, how I am doing, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will make known to you all things.
22 Namutuma kwemwe kwainsonga inu yabhusibhusi, koleleki mumenye emisango ingulu yeswe, abhone okubhafungamya emyoyo jemwe.
I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know our state and that he may comfort your hearts.
23 Omulembe gubhe kubhaili, ne lyenda ne likisha okusoka ku Nyamuanga lata na Latabhugenyi Yesu Kristo.
Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
24 Echigongo chibhwe amwi na bhona bhanu abhamwenda Latabhugenyi Yesu Kristo kwe lyenda linu litakufwa.
Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with incorruptible love. Amen.
