1 Wathesalonike 4
1 Hatimaye ndongo, tukabhapela n'teema ni kubhasiikwa Yesu Kristu. Kama kampokili maelekezo kuhomela kwa tete namna yai pasibhwa kulota na niyakampendesya K'yara, kwa njela eye kabh'ele mulotai ni kubhomba zaidi.
As to what remains therefore, my brethren, we intreat and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received instructions from us, how ye ought to walk and to please God, ye would abound therein more and more.
2 Kwa ndabha mmanyili malobhi gani yatubhapelili kup'etela Bwana Yesu.
For ye know what commandments we gave you from the Lord Jesus.
3 Kwa ndabha agha ndo mapenzi gha K'yara: utakasobhuinu- ndabha muyepukai zinaa,
For this is the will of God, even your sanctification: that ye should abstain from fornication,
4 Ndabha Kila mmonga bhinu amanyili namna ya kumiliki n'dala munu muene ki utakatifu na kiheshima.
and that every one of you should possess his vessel in sanctification and honor,
5 Kotokuya ni n'dala kwajia tamaasa mumbhele (Kujo mataifa ghaghammanyili lepi K'yara).
not in the passion of lust, like the heathens who know not God.
6 Akotokuya munu yuoa yhola yaivukai mipaka kun'kosela ndongo munu kwajia ya lijambo ele. Kwa ndabha Bwana muene ndo yailepa kisasi kya mambo ghoa agha, kama katulongolili kubhaonya na kubhashuhudila.
That no one over-reach, or wrong his brother in any thing: because the Lord is an avenger of all such crimes, as we also told you before, and testified to you.
7 Kwa ndabha Bwana atukutili lepi kwa uchafu, bali kitakatifu.
For God hath not called us to impurity, but to holiness.
8 Kwa eyu yakaibela ele yabhibela lepi bhanu, Bali akambela K'yara, yaakabhapela Roho N'takatifu bhuake.
He therefore who rejecteth us, rejecteth not man, but God; who hath given us his holy Spirit.
9 Kuhusu upendo wa ndongo, iyelepi haja ya munu yuoa yhola kukuyandikila, kwa ndabha mfundisi bhu ni kyala kuganana yhomo kwa yhomo.
But as to brotherly love, ye need not that I write unto you; for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
10 Hakika, mwaketili agha ghoa kwa bhalongo bhabhayele Makedonia iyoa, lakini tukabhasii, ndhongo, niketai hatani kuzidi.
And indeed ye do it to all the brethren, that are in all Macedonia; but we exhort you, brethren, to abound in it more and more:
11 Tu kabhasii mtamawiayi kuishi maisha gha kutulila, kujali mbhombho sinu, ni kufuanya mbhombho kwa mabhoko gha yhomo, kama katubhaamuili.
and endeavour to be quiet, and mind your own affairs, and work with your own hands,
12 Fwanyai agha ili mubhwesi ayi kutola kinofu na kiheshima kwa abha bhabha yele kwibhala ni imani, ili usiponghokibhu ni lihitaji liyoalela.
as we gave you in charge, that ye may walk decently toward those that are without, and may have need of no one's assistance.
13 Tilondelepi muenga muyetewai kayilondeka lepi, emu bhalongo, panani ya abha bhabha ghonili, ili msihidi kuhuzunika kwa bhamana bhabhayele lepi ni uhakika wa magono ghaghihida.
But I would not have you ignorant, my brethren, concerning those that are fallen asleep, that ye may not be grieved like others who have no hope:
14 Ikayelai lianimi kuwa Yesu afuili ni kifufuka kabh'ele, hata kabh'ele K'yara akabhaleta pamonga ni Yesu abha bhabhagonili kimauti kup'etela muene.
for if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so also those, that sleep in Jesus, will God bring with Him.
15 Kwajia ya agha. Tukabhajobhela muenga kwa lilobhi la Bwana, ndabha tete ya tuyele hai, yatuyelai magono gha kuhida muene Bwana, hakika tukabhalongolela bhala bhabhagonili kimauti.
For this we tell you in the word of the Lord, that we who shall be living and remain to the coming of the Lord, shall not be before those that are asleep.
16 Kwa ndabha muene Bwana alaselela kuhomela kumabhengu. Alahida ni sauti ibhaa, pamonga ni sauti ya malaika bhakuu, pamonga ni palapanda ya K'yara, nabho bhabhafuili ku'etela Kristu bhalafufuka hosi.
For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with acclamation, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first;
17 Kabh'ele tete yatuyele hai yatubakili, tulaungana mmabhengu pamonga nabhu kumlaki Bwana muhewani. Kwa njela eye tulaya ni Bwana magono ghoa.
then we who are living and remain, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we for ever be with the Lord.
18 Kwa iyo, nyifalijiayi yhomo kwa yhomo kwa malobhi agha.
Therefore comfort one another with these words.
