Bharumi 13
1 Khila nafsi jhijhiaghe ni bhutii ni kwa mamlaka gha panani, kwa kujha ghajhelepi mamlaka isipokujha jhihomili kwa K'yara. Ni mamlaka syasijhele sibhekibhu ni K'yara.
Let every one submit to the authorities that are over him; for there is no authority which is not from God: and the authorities which exist have been ordained by God.
2 Henu jhaip'enga mamlaka ejhuip'enga amri jha K'yara; ni bhala ambabho bhakajhip'enga bhibetakupokela hukumu panani pa bhene.
He therefore that setteth himself against the authority resisteth what God hath ordained; and they a who resist will bring upon themselves judgment.
3 Kwa kujha bhatawala sio tishio kwa bhabhibhomba manofu, bali kwa bhabhibhomba mabhibhi. Je einoghela kutokutila mamlaka? Bhombayi ghaghajhele manofu, na wibeta kusifibhwa nakhu.
For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wouldst thou then not be afraid of the government? Do that which is good, and thou wilt have praise from it;
4 Kwa kujha ndo mtumishi ghwa K'yara kwa bhebhe ndabha jha manofu. Bali kama wibetakubhomba ghaghajhele mabhibhi, tilayi kwa kujha ip'enda lepi bhupanga, bila sababu. Kwa kujha ndo mtumishi ghwa K'yara, jhailipa kisasi kwa ghadhabu panani pa jhola jhaibhomba mabhibhi.
for the ruler is God's servant to thee for good. But if thou doest evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain; for he is God's servant, an avenger to inflict wrath upon him that doeth evil.
5 Henu jhilondeka kutii, sio tu kwa ndabha jha ghadhabu, bali kabhele kwandabha jha dhamiri.
It is necessary therefore to submit, not only because of the wrath, but also for your conscience' sake.
6 Kwa ndabha ejhe kahele ghwilepa kodi. Kwa kujha bhenye mamlaka ndo bhatumishi bha K'yara, ambabho bhijhendelela kubhomba lijambo e'le.
For the same reason pay tribute also; for they are ministers of God, attending continually to this very business.
7 Mubhalepayi khila mmonga kya akabamela: kodi jhailondeka kodi; ushuru kwa jhailondeka ushuru hofu kwa jhailondeka hofu; lutengo kwa jhailondeka litengo.
Render to all what is due to them; tribute, to whom tribute is due; custom, to whom custom; fear, to whom fear; honor, to whom honor.
8 Musidaibhu ni munu khenu kyokyoha, isipokujha kuganana jhomu kwa jhomu. Kwa kujha muene jha an'ganili jirani ghwa muene atimisi sheria.
Owe no one anything but brotherly love; for he that loveth others hath fulfilled the Law.
9 Kwa kujha, “Wibetalepi kuzini, kukhoma, wibetalepi kuheja, wibetalepi kunoghela,” na kama ijhe amri jhenge kabhele, jhijumlisibhu mu senetsi ejhe: “Wibetakun'gana jirani ghwa jhobhi kama bhebhe ghwe muene.”
For these, “Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not covet,” and every other commandment, are summed up in this precept, “Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.”
10 Luganu lukandhuru lepi jirani ghwa munu ndo bhukamilifu bhwa sheria.
Love worketh no ill to one's neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the Law.
11 Kwa ndabha ejhe, mumanyili wakati, kujha tayari bhwakati bhwa kuhoma mu ligono. Kwa kujha bhwokovu bhwa jhotu bhukaribili nesu jha bhwakati bhola bhwatwakyeriri hosi.
And this, since we know the time, that it is already high time for us to awake out of sleep; for now is our salvation nearer than when we became believers.
12 Kinu kijhendelili, ni musi bhukaribili. Na tubhekayi palubhafu matendo gha ngisi, na tufwalayi silaha sya nuru.
The night is far spent, the day is at hand; let us then throw off the works of darkness, and put on the armor of light.
13 Na tulotayi pamonga, kama mu nuru, sio sherehe sya bhuovu au bhulefi. Na tusikhesiajhi mu zinaa au tamaa jhajhibhuwesya lepi kuleka, ni sio mu fitina au bhuifu.
Let us walk becomingly, as in the day; not in reveling and drunkenness, not in lewdness and wantonness, not in strife and envy;
14 Bali tumfwalayi Bwana Yesu Kristu, na tusibheki nafasi kwa ndabha jha mb'el'e, kwa tamaa syake.
but clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and think not about satisfying the lusts of the flesh.
