2 Batesalonika 3
1 Bandeko, bobondelaka mpo na biso na tina na makambo mosusu, mpo ete Liloba na Nkolo epanzana noki mpe epesamela lokumu ndenge ezalaki kozwa lokumu epai na bino.
For the rest, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run and be glorified, even as also with you;
2 Bobondelaka mpe mpo ete Nzambe akangola biso wuta na maboko ya bato mabe mpe ya batomboki, pamba te bato nyonso bazali na kondima te.
and that we may be delivered from bad and evil men, for faith [is] not [the portion] of all.
3 Kasi Nkolo azali sembo, akopesa bino makasi mpe akobatela bino liboso ya Satana.
But the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you and keep [you] from evil.
4 Tondimisami kati na Nkolo ete bozali kosala mpe bokokoba kosala makambo nyonso oyo tozali kotinda bino.
But we trust in the Lord as to you, that the things which we enjoin, ye both do and will do.
5 Tika ete Nkolo akamba mitema na bino kino na bolingo ya Nzambe mpe na molende ya Klisto!
But the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patience of the Christ.
6 Bandeko, totindi bino na Kombo ya Nkolo Yesu-Klisto ete bokima ndeko nyonso oyo atambolaka na bomoi ya mobulu mpe alingaka te kotambola kolanda malakisi oyo bozwaki kowuta na biso.
Now we enjoin you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw from every brother walking disorderly and not according to the instruction which he received from us.
7 Pamba te boyebi bino moko ndenge nini bosengeli kolanda ndakisa na biso. Tango tozalaki elongo na bino, tozalaki bagoyigoyi te
For ye know yourselves how ye ought to imitate us, because we have not walked disorderly among you;
8 mpe toliaki epai ya moto moko te bilei ya ofele; kasi tozalaki, butu mpe moyi, kosala mosala ya makasi mpe ya pasi, mpo ete topesa mokumba na biso epai ya moto moko te kati na bino.
nor have we eaten bread from any one without cost; but in toil and hardship working night and day not to be chargeable to any one of you:
9 Nzokande elingi koloba te ete tozangaki makoki mpo na lisungi ya ndenge wana, kasi tosalaki bongo mpo ete tokoma ndakisa mpo na bino.
not that we have not the right, but that we might give ourselves as an example to you, in order to your imitating us.
10 Pamba te, ezala tango tozalaki elongo na bino, topesaki bino mobeko oyo: « Tika ete moto oyo aboyi kosala mosala alia mpe te! »
For also when we were with you we enjoined you this, that if any man does not like to work, neither let him eat.
11 Tozali koyoka ete mingi kati na bino bazali bagoyigoyi mpe bazali kotambola na bomoi ya mobulu, bazali kosala eloko moko te, kasi bazali kaka kokota na makambo ya bato mosusu.
For we hear that [there are] some walking among you disorderly, not working at all, but busybodies.
12 Tozali kokomela bato ya lolenge wana malako mpe kosenga na bango, na Kombo ya Nkolo Yesu-Klisto, ete basala mosala na kimia mpe balia bilei oyo bakozwa na motoki na bango moko.
Now such we enjoin and exhort in [the] Lord Jesus Christ, that working quietly they eat their own bread.
13 Kasi mpo na bino bandeko, bolemba te kosala bolamu.
But ye, brethren, do not faint in well-doing.
14 Soki moto aboyi kotosa mitindo oyo topesi bino kati na mokanda oyo, bokebisa bato nyonso na tina na ye mpe bosangana na ye lisusu te mpo ete ayoka soni.
But if any one obey not our word by the letter, mark that man, and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed of himself;
15 Bozwa ye lokola monguna te, kasi bopamela ye lokola ndeko.
and do not esteem him as an enemy, but admonish [him] as a brother.
16 Tika ete Ye moko Nkolo na kimia apesaka bino kimia tango nyonso mpe na lolenge nyonso! Tika ete Nkolo azala elongo na bino nyonso!
But the Lord of peace himself give you peace continually in every way. The Lord [be] with you all.
17 Ngai Polo, nakomi mbote oyo na nzela ya loboko na ngai moko; yango nde ezali elembo kati na mikanda na ngai nyonso. Nakomaka nde bongo.
The salutation by the hand of me, Paul, which is [the] mark in every letter; so I write.
18 Tika ete ngolu ya Yesu-Klisto, Nkolo na biso, ezala na bino nyonso!
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all.
