1 Bhakolinto 16
1 Nnaino, ga mishango ku bhandunji bha ukonjelo bha ku Yelushalemu, ntendanje malinga shinajiye ku makanisha ga Shilambo sha ku Galatia.
Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I commanded the churches of Galatia, you do likewise.
2 Lyubha lya Jumapili kila mundu munkumbi gwenunji, agoye mmbiya malinga shapatile, nkupinga pushing'ishepo nnaishumbuyanje kushoya mishango kabhili.
On the first day of the week, let each one of you save, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come.
3 Mobha gushing'ishe kungwenunji, shinaatumanje bhushimwaagulanje munkumbi gwenunji bhala, bhapelekanje bhaluwa na mishango jenunji ku Yelushalemu.
When I arrive, I will send whoever you approve with letters to carry your gracious gift to Jerusalem.
4 Ipingwaga na nne nyende, bhai shinyende na bhanganyabho.
If it is appropriate for me to go also, they will go with me.
5 Shing'ishe kungwenunji mbitilaga ku Shalambo sha Makedonia, pabha mbinga pitila kweneko.
But I will come to you when I have passed through Macedonia, for I am passing through Macedonia.
6 Pana shindame kunngwenunji kashoko, eu shindame na mmanganya mobha gowe ga shipwepwe, nkupinga nnyangutilanje mmwanja gwangu kokowe kushinyende.
But with you it may be that I will stay, or even winter, that you may send me on my journey wherever I go.
7 Ngapinga pita kungwenunji shangu, nipelenganya na mwanja. Pabha ngunaganishiya kulonjeya na mmanganya, Bhakulungwa bhapingaga.
For I do not wish to see you now in passing, but I hope to stay a while with you, if the Lord permits.
8 Ikabheje shindame ku Epesho mpaka lyubha lya shikukuu ja Pentekoshite.
But I will stay at Ephesus until Pentecost,
9 Pabha njipata lilanga lya kamula liengo lyangu, ikabhe bhandaukanga ni bhabhagwinji.
for a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.
10 Ibhaga a Timoteo shibhaishe kunngwenunji, mwaaposhelanje ukoto, bhanakole lipamba mobha gushibhatame kungwenunji, pabha bhanaatenda liengo lya Bhakulungwa malinga nne.
Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do.
11 Kwa nneyo mundu jojowe anaanyegaye, ikabhe mwaajangutilanje bhajende mwanja gwabho kwa ulele, nkupinga bhakabhuje, pabha nne na Bhakilishitu ajangunji tunakwaalinda.
Therefore let no one despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brothers.
12 Ga a Apolo apwetu, njikwaashondelesheya kaje, bhaishe kungwenunji na ashaapwetu, ikabheje bhakaapinga kuika nnaino, ikabhe shibhaishe pushibhapate malangapo.
Now concerning Apollos, the brother, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brothers; and it was not at all his desire to come now; but he will come when he has an opportunity.
13 Nnaiibhukanje, nnjimangananje mwishimilikenje nngulupai na nkolanje makangala na mashili.
Watch. Stand firm in the faith. Be courageous. Be strong.
14 Kila shindu shinkutendanga ntendanje kwa pingana.
Let all that you do be done in love.
15 Ashaalongo ajangunji, mwaamanyinji ashaalongo ajabho a Shitepana kuti, bhanganyabho ni bhantai poshela ngulupai ja Shikilishitu ku Akaya, na bhashinkuengwanga kwaakamulilanga liengo bhandunji bha ukonjelo. Ngunakunshondelesheyanga ashaalongo ajangu,
Now I appeal to you, brothers (you know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first fruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves to serve the saints),
16 mwaakundanje na nkaguyanje ukulongoya gwa bhandunji malinga bhanganyabho, na kila akamula liengo na bhanganyabho.
that you also be in subjection to such, and to everyone who helps in the work and labors.
17 Numbe nne ngunaangalala ga ika kwabhonji a Shitepana na a Potonatushi na a Kaiko, pabha bhashimbanganga indu yatubhile kopoka kunngwenunji ila.
I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus; for that which was lacking on your part, they supplied.
18 Pabha bhashinkuangalayanga ntima gwangu na mitima jenunji. Kwa nneyo inapwaa kwaakumbushilanga bhandunji malinga bhanganyabha.
For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge those who are like that.
19 Makanisha gowe ga ku Ashia ganakunnamushilanga. A Akula na a Pilishika pamo na bhandu bhowe bha a Nnungu bhalinginji nnyumba jabhonji, bhanakunnamushilanga nkulundana kwenunji na Bhakulungwa.
The churches of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you much in the Lord, together with the church that is in their house.
20 Bhakilishitu ajetunji bhowe bhanakunnamushilanga. Na mmowe nnamushilananje nkupingana kwa ukonjelo.
All the brothers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
21 Nne a Pauli ngunakunnamushilanga, nilijandika kwa nkono gwangu namwene.
This greeting is by me, Paul, with my own hand.
22 Jojowe akakwaapinga Bhakulungwa aloshwe, Nnjiye Mmakulungwa!
If anyone does not love the Lord, a curse be on him. Our Lord, come.
23 Nema ja Bhakulungwa a Yeshu jibhe na mmanganya.
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.
24 Kupinga kwangu nne kubhe na mmnganya nkulundana na a Kilishitu Yeshu.
My love to all of you in Messiah Jesus.
