Ba-Ebre 13
1 Tika ete bondeko ewumela kati na bino!
Let brotherly love remain;
2 Bolemba te koyambaka malamu bapaya, pamba te, na nzela wana, bato mosusu bayambaki ba-anjelu wana bayebaki te ete bazali solo ba-anjelu.
of the hospitality be not forgetful, for through this unawares certain did entertain messengers;
3 Bokanisaka bato oyo bazali kati na boloko lokola nde bino mpe bozali kati na boloko elongo na bango. Bokanisaka bato oyo bazali komona pasi, mpo ete bino mpe bozali na nzoto oyo emonaka pasi.
be mindful of those in bonds, as having been bound with them, of those maltreated, as also yourselves being in the body;
4 Tika ete moto nyonso apesa libala lokumu, mpe mbeto ya libala ezala peto, pamba te Nzambe akosambisa bato na pite mpe bato na bikobo.
honourable [is] the marriage in all, and the bed undefiled, and whoremongers and adulterers God shall judge.
5 Bozalaka na lokoso ya mbongo te, bosepelaka nde na oyo bozali na yango, pamba te Ye moko Nzambe alobaki: « Nakotikala kokabwana na yo te, nakotikala kosundola yo te. »
Without covetousness the behaviour, being content with the things present, for He hath said, 'No, I will not leave, no, nor forsake thee,'
6 Boye tokoki koloba na elikya nyonso: « Nkolo azali Mosungi na ngai, nakobanga te; bato bakoki kosala ngai nini? »
so that we do boldly say, 'The Lord [is] to me a helper, and I will not fear what man shall do to me.'
7 Bokanisaka bakambi na bino, oyo bateyaki bino Liloba na Nzambe; botala ndenge nini suka ya bomoi na bango ezalaki, mpe bomekola kondima na bango.
Be mindful of those leading you, who did speak to you the word of God, whose faith — considering the issue of the behaviour — be imitating,
Jesus Christ yesterday and to-day the same, and to the ages; (aiōn g165)
9 Bolandaka te lolenge nyonso ya mateya ya sika, pamba te ebongi ete mitema na biso elendisama na nzela ya ngolu ya Nzambe, kasi na nzela te ya mibeko oyo esungaki ata moke te bato oyo bazalaki kotosa yango.
with teachings manifold and strange be not carried about, for [it is] good that by grace the heart be confirmed, not with meats, in which they who were occupied were not profited;
10 Tozali na etumbelo, kasi Banganga-Nzambe oyo basalaka kati na Mongombo bazali na bokonzi te ya kolia mbeka oyo babonzi na likolo ya etumbelo yango,
we have an altar, of which to eat they have no authority who the tabernacle are serving,
11 pamba te banzoto ya banyama oyo mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe amemaka makila na yango kati na Esika-Oyo-Eleki-Bule lokola mbeka mpo na bolimbisi ya masumu, etumbamaka na libanda ya molako.
for of those beasts whose blood is brought for sin into the holy places through the chief priest — of these the bodies are burned without the camp.
12 Yango wana Yesu mpe akufaki na libanda ya mboka mpo na kobulisa bato na nzela ya makila na Ye moko.
Wherefore, also Jesus — that he might sanctify through [his] own blood the people — without the gate did suffer;
13 Boye, biso mpe tokende epai ya Yesu na libanda ya molako, na kondima koyoka soni oyo Ye ayokaki;
now, then, may we go forth unto him without the camp, his reproach bearing;
14 pamba te, kati na mokili oyo, tozali na engumba moko te oyo ekowumela libela na libela, kasi tozali nde koluka engumba oyo ezali koya.
for we have not here an abiding city, but the coming one we seek;
15 Yango wana, na nzela ya Yesu, tobonzelaka Nzambe tango nyonso mbeka ya masanzoli, elingi koloba: mbuma ya bibebu oyo etatolaka polele Kombo na Ye.
through him, then, we may offer up a sacrifice of praise always to God, that is, the fruit of lips, giving thanks to His name;
16 Bobosanaka te kosala bolamu mpe kosunga bato, pamba te yango nde bambeka oyo Nzambe asepelaka na yango.
and of doing good, and of fellowship, be not forgetful, for with such sacrifices God is well-pleased.
17 Botosaka bakambi na bino mpe bosalelaka mitindo oyo bapesaka bino, pamba te bazali bakengeli ya milimo na bino mpe bakosamba likolo na bino liboso ya Nzambe. Bosalaka bongo mpo ete basala mosala na bango na esengo, kasi na koyimayima te, soki te bokozanga litomba.
Be obedient to those leading you, and be subject, for these do watch for your souls, as about to give account, that with joy they may do this, and not sighing, for this [is] unprofitable to you.
18 Bosambelaka mpo na biso! Pamba te tondimisami penza ete tozali na mitema ya peto mpe tozwi mokano ya kotambola na bomoi ya lokumu kati na makambo nyonso.
Pray for us, for we trust that we have a good conscience, in all things willing to behave well,
19 Nazali penza kosenga na bino ete bobondela Nzambe mpo ete bazongisa ngai na lombangu epai na bino.
and more abundantly do I call upon [you] to do this, that more quickly I may be restored to you.
20 Tika ete Nzambe ya kimia, Ye oyo asekwisaki kati na bakufi Mobateli monene ya bameme, Yesu, Nkolo na biso, na nzela ya makila ya Boyokani ya seko, (aiōnios g166)
And the God of the peace, who did bring up out of the dead the great shepherd of the sheep — in the blood of an age-during covenant — our Lord Jesus, (aiōnios g166)
21 apesa bino makoki ya kosalaka bolamu ya lolenge nyonso mpo na kokokisa mokano na Ye, mpe asala kati na biso makambo nyonso oyo esepelisaka Ye, na nzela ya Yesu-Klisto! Tika ete nkembo ezonga epai na Ye, mpo na libela na libela! Amen! (aiōn g165)
make you perfect in every good work to do His will, doing in you that which is well-pleasing before Him, through Jesus Christ, to whom [is] the glory — to the ages of the ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)
22 Nazali kosenga na bino bandeko na ngai ete bokanga motema na koyamba malendisi oyo nakomeli bino na mokuse penza.
And I entreat you, brethren, suffer the word of the exhortation, for also through few words I have written to you.
23 Boyeba ete ndeko na biso, Timote, asilaki kobima na boloko. Soki akoya noki, nakoya nzela moko na ye mpo na komona bino.
Know ye that the brother Timotheus is released, with whom, if he may come more shortly, I will see you.
24 Bopesa mbote na bakambi na bino nyonso mpe na basantu nyonso. Bandeko ya Itali batindeli bino mbote.
Salute all those leading you, and all the saints; salute you doth those from Italy:
25 Tika ete ngolu ya Nzambe ezala na bino nyonso!
the grace [is] with you all! Amen.
