Maroma 14
1 Mutambule yense yo fokola mwi intumelo, nikusena kuha inkatulo che inkani.
Now accept one who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions.
2 Umwina muntu wina intumelo yo kulya chimwi ni chimwi, zumwi yo fokola ulya vulyo zisihu.
One man has faith to eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.
3 Imi uzo yolya zonse kanji a nyansilizi uzo yasalyi; imi uzo yasalyi zonse kanji a atuli uzo yolya zonse. Kakuti Ireeza aba mutambuli.
Don’t let him who eats despise him who doesn’t eat. Don’t let him who doesn’t eat judge him who eats, for God has accepted him.
4 Njewe ni, iwe yo atula muhikana yowila kuzumwi? Njikwali habusu bwa muyendisi wakwe kuti uzimana kamba uwa. Kono ka pangiwe kuti a zime, kakuti Simwine u wola kumu tenda kuti a zime.
Who are you who judge another’s servant? To his own lord he stands or falls. Yes, he will be made to stand, for God has power to make him stand.
5 Umwina muntu ukuteka i zuba limwina hewulu lya limwi. Zumwi ukuteka mazuba onse kulikanyeleza. Musiye muntu yense azuwisise mumuhupulo wakwe.
One man esteems one day as more important. Another esteems every day alike. Let each man be fully assured in his own mind.
6 Iye yo kuteka izuba, ulikutekela Simwine. Imi iye yolya, ulyila Simwine, kakuti iye uha buitumelo kwa Ireeza. Iye yasalyi, usiya kulyila Simwine, naye bulyo uha buitumelo kwa Ireeza.
He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks. He who doesn’t eat, to the Lord he doesn’t eat, and gives God thanks.
7 Kakuti kakwina kwetu yo lihalila iye mwine, imi kakwina yo lifwila iye mwine.
For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.
8 Mukuti haiba tuhala, tuhalila Simwine, imi haiba tufwa, tufwila Simwine. Linu haiba tuhala kapa tufwa, tuba Simwine.
For if we live, we live to the Lord. Or if we die, we die to the Lord. If therefore we live or die, we are the Lord’s.
9 Kacheli ibaka Kiresite abafwi ni kuhala hape, ili kuti abe Simwine wa bonse bafwile ni bahala.
For to this end Christ died, rose, and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.
10 Kono iwe, chinzi hau atula mwako? Linu iwe, chinzi hau nyansiliza mwako? Kakuti iswe twense katu kazime habusu bwe chipula che inkatulo cha Ireeza.
But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
11 Kakuti kuñoletwe, “Kubona nihala,” kuwamba Simwine, “kwangu lyonse izwi ni izwi ka lisungame, imi indimi ni indimi kaihe intumbo kwa Ireeza.”
For it is written, “‘As I live,’ says the Lord, ‘to me every knee will bow. Every tongue will confess to God.’”
12 Chobulyo linu, zumwi ni zumwi kwetu mwahe buikalabelo bwakwe kwa Ireeza.
So then each one of us will give account of himself to God.
13 Kuzwaho, sanzi tuboleli kuatula zumwi ni zumwi, kono chebaka lyobulyo tuzeze izi, kuti kakwina zumwi yeta bike chisitataliso kapa kuteela mwako.
Therefore let’s not judge one another any more, but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block in his brother’s way, or an occasion for falling.
14 Nizi imi nina muchilikani ni Simwine Jesu, kuti kakwina chilijoloza icho chine. Kwanda yakwe njowola kuchihinda kuti kachijolwele, kwali kachijolwele.
I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean of itself; except that to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
15 Haiba ibaka lya zilyo mukwako uzuwa kuchisa, aho kosiyendi mwi ilato. Sanzi usinyi cha zilyo zako uzo Kiresite yaba fwili.
Yet if because of food your brother is grieved, you walk no longer in love. Don’t destroy with your food him for whom Christ died.
16 Chobulyo sanzi uzuminini zohupula kuba zishiyeme kuti ziwambiwe ubu zibi.
Then don’t let your good be slandered,
17 Kakuti mubuso wa Ireeza kawuami zilyo ni kunywa, kono kuama kushiyama, inkozo, imi ni kusanga Muluhuho Lujolola.
for God’s Kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
18 Kwali iye yotendela Kirisite cheyi inzila utambulwa kwa Ireeza imi uzuminwa ni bantu.
For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.
19 Chobulyo linu, twende tu tundamene zintu ze inkozo ne zina zi tuzaka.
So then, let’s follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.
20 Sanzi usinyi mutendo wa Ireeza kebaka lya zilyo. Zintu zonse luli zijolola, kono chibi kozuna muntu yolya imi chimuletela kuwa.
Don’t overthrow God’s work for food’s sake. All things indeed are clean, however it is evil for that man who creates a stumbling block by eating.
21 Kushiyeme kusalya inyama, kapa kunywa i waine, kapa icho chabona mwako kuti chi fosahele.
It is good to not eat meat, drink wine, nor do anything by which your brother stumbles, is offended, or is made weak.
22 Intumelo yo kwete, ibike mukati kako ni Ireeza, yo fuyoletwe njozo yasa linyansi iye mwine kucha zuminina.
Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who doesn’t judge himself in that which he approves.
23 Iye yo akanyeha unyanswa ha lya, kakuli kachi zwi mwi intumelo. Imi zonse zisa zwi mwi intumelo chibi.
But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it isn’t of faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin.
