2 Bhathesalonike 3
1 Ni henu, bhalongo, mutus'omelahi, kuj'ha lilobhi lya Bwana libhwesiayi kuyenela ni kutukusibhwa, kama kwaj'hayela pia kwa muenga.
Now, brothers, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may rush and be glorified, as it also is with you.
2 Mus'omahi kuj'ha tubhwesyagha kuokolibhwa kuh'omela mu bhuovu ni bhanu bhaasi, kwa kuj'ha si bhoha bhaj'hele ni imani.
Pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil people, for not all have faith.
3 Lakini Bwana ndo mwaminifu, ambaj'he ibetakubhasindimalisya muenga ni kubhalenda kuh'oma kwa Bwana kwa j'hola muovu.
But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.
4 Tuj'hele ni bhusisya kwa Bwana kwa ndabha j'hinu; kuj'ha mwibhomba na mwibeta kuj'hendebela kubhomba mambo ambagho tu kabhalanghisya.
We have confidence in the Lord about you, that you both do and will continue to do the things that we command.
5 Bwana abhwesiyayi kulongosya mit'ema ghya muenga mu luganu ni mu bhuvumilivu bhwa Kristu.
May the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and to the endurance of Christ.
6 Henu tukabhalaghisya, bhalongo, mu lihina lya Bwana Yesu Kristu, kuj'ha muyepai kila ndongo ambaghe iishi maisha gha uvivu na siyo kwa kuh'omela ni kutokana ni desturi ambasyo mwasipokili kuh'oma kwa tete.
Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you avoid every brother who lives a lazy life and does not live according to the traditions you received from us.
7 Kwa kuj'ha muenga mwebhene mmanyili kuj'ha sawa kwa muenga kutuj'hesya tete. Twatamili lepi mgati mwa muenga kama bhala ambabho bhaj'heledumu ni litengulilu.
For you yourselves know it is proper for you to imitate us. We did not live among you as those who had no discipline.
8 Na twalilidumu kyakulya kya munu j'haj'hioha j'hola bila kukilep'hela. Badala j'hiake, Twabhombili mbombo pakilu ni pamusi kwa mbombo ngafu ni kwa mal'omb'osi ili tukata kuj'ha mzigo kwa j'hej'hioha Kati j'ha muenga.
We did not eat anyone's food without paying for it. Instead, we worked night and day in difficult labor and hardship, so we might not be a burden to any of you.
9 Twabhombili nahasi kwandabha tudulili mamlaka. Badala yiake, twak'hetili naha ili tuj'helayi mfuano kwa muenga, ili mubhwesiahi kutuj'hesya tuenga.
We did this not because we have no authority. Instead, we did this in order to be an example to you, so that you may imitate us.
10 Wakati tuj'hele pamonga namu twabhalaghisye, “ij'helayi mmonga Kati j'hinu ilondalepi kubhomba mbombo, na asilyi”.
When we were with you, we commanded you, “The one who is unwilling to work must not eat.”
11 Kwa kuj'ha twep'heleka kuj'ha bhamana bhilota kwa bhutifu mugati mwinu. Bhibhomba lepi mbimbo lakini badala yiake ndo bhanu bhabhaye dumu ni bhutaratibu.
For we hear that some walk idly among you. They do not work but are instead meddlers.
12 Henu abhu ni bhene twikabhalanghisya ni kubhaasa kwa Bwana Yesu Kristu, kuj'ha lazima bhabhombagha mbombo kwa bhutulivu ni kulya kyakulya kya bhene.
Now such ones we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ, that they should work with quietness and eat their own food.
13 Lakini muenga, bhalongo, musisiriki n'tema mu kubhomba ghaghayele manofu.
But you, brothers, do not become tired of doing what is right.
14 Ikaj'he laghe munu j'hoj'hioha ibela kutii lilobhi lyitu mu waraka obho, Muyelayi makini naku na mkatakuj'ha ni bhushirika pamonga nu muene, ili kuj'ha abhwesiagha kubhona Soni.
If anyone does not obey our word in this letter, take note of him and have no association with him, so that he may be ashamed.
15 Mkatayi kuntolela Kama adui, lakini mumwonyaghe kama ndongobhinu.
Do not consider him as an enemy, but warn him as a brother.
16 Bwana bhwa amani muene abhapelayi amani bhwakati bhuoha mu nj'hela sioha. Bwana ayelayi namu mwebhoha.
May the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. May the Lord be with you all.
17 E'j'he ndo salamu j'ha nenga, Paulo, kibhoko kyangu ne muene kila ambaho ndo alama mu kila bhwaraka. E'fe ndo kyanij'handika.
This is my greeting, Paul, with my own hand, which is the sign in every letter. This is how I write.
18 Neema j'ha Bwana ghwitu Yesu Kristu j'hibhwesiagha kuj'ha namu mwebhoha.
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
