1 Bhandunji bhatubhonanje uwe kuti bhatumishi bha a Kilishitu tukamwiywe injubhi ya a Nnungu.
Οὕτως ἡμᾶς λογιζέσθω ἄνθρωπος ὡς ὑπηρέτας Χριστοῦ καὶ οἰκονόμους μυστηρίων θεοῦ.
2 Shipingwa penepo ntumishi akamwiywe jula akulupalilwe.
⸀ὧδελοιπὸν ζητεῖται ἐν τοῖς οἰκονόμοις ἵνα πιστός τις εὑρεθῇ.
3 Kwangu nne kumaliya kwa malobhe gangu na mmwe eu na bhandu bhana nngabha shindu. Kwangu nne nngabha shindu kuukumulwa na mmanganya eu na maakama jojowe ja bhandunji, na wala namwene ngakwiukumula.
ἐμοὶ δὲ εἰς ἐλάχιστόν ἐστιν, ἵνα ὑφʼ ὑμῶν ἀνακριθῶ ἢ ὑπὸ ἀνθρωπίνης ἡμέρας· ἀλλʼ οὐδὲ ἐμαυτὸν ἀνακρίνω·
4 Nntima gwangu ukakushibhona shindu shoshowe sha jangula, ikabheje shenesho shikandenda nne ngunakole sha gambwa, ikabhe bhamaliya malobhe gangu nne Bhakulungwa.
οὐδὲν γὰρ ἐμαυτῷ σύνοιδα, ἀλλʼ οὐκ ἐν τούτῳ δεδικαίωμαι, ὁ δὲ ἀνακρίνων με κύριός ἐστιν.
5 Bhai, nnamaliyanje malobhe malanga gakwe gakanabhe ika, nnekanje mpaka pushibhaishe Bhakulungwa. Bhenebho bhapinga unukula indu yowe itendwa kwa shinjubhi, na languya ili mmitima ja bhandunji. Penepo kila mundu shalumbililwe na a Nnungu.
ὥστε μὴ πρὸ καιροῦ τι κρίνετε, ἕως ἂν ἔλθῃ ὁ κύριος, ὃς καὶ φωτίσει τὰ κρυπτὰ τοῦ σκότους καὶ φανερώσει τὰς βουλὰς τῶν καρδιῶν, καὶ τότε ὁ ἔπαινος γενήσεται ἑκάστῳ ἀπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ.
6 Bhakilishitu ajangunji, gene gundashiyego njilandanya ga a Apolo na nne kwenu mmanganyanji, nkupinga mwiijiganyanje kugamanya malombolelo ga shibheleketo sha kuti, “Nnapundanje gajandikwego.” Anapagwe mundu akwiipunila mundu jumo na kunnyegaya juna.
Ταῦτα δέ, ἀδελφοί, μετεσχημάτισα εἰς ἐμαυτὸν καὶ ⸀Ἀπολλῶνδιʼ ὑμᾶς, ἵνα ἐν ἡμῖν μάθητε τό· Μὴ ὑπὲρ ⸀ἃ⸀γέγραπται ἵνα μὴ εἷς ὑπὲρ τοῦ ἑνὸς φυσιοῦσθε κατὰ τοῦ ἑτέρου.
7 Gani ampele mmwe ukulungwa kupunda bhananji? Shindu shashi shinkwete, gwangali kupegwa na a Nnungu? Monaga nshipegwa shinkwiipuna nndi mbuti mwaangapegwa?
τίς γάρ σε διακρίνει; τί δὲ ἔχεις ὃ οὐκ ἔλαβες; εἰ δὲ καὶ ἔλαβες, τί καυχᾶσαι ὡς μὴ λαβών;
8 Ayaga! Nkwetenje indu ya togolela! Igala nkwetenje shipato shikulungwa! Mpatilenje upalume gwangali uwe! Elo, mbaya nkalinginji bhapalume, nkupinga na uwe tutagwale pamo na mmanganyanji.
Ἤδη κεκορεσμένοι ἐστέ, ἤδη ἐπλουτήσατε, χωρὶς ἡμῶν ἐβασιλεύσατε· καὶ ὄφελόν γε ἐβασιλεύσατε, ἵνα καὶ ἡμεῖς ὑμῖν συμβασιλεύσωμεν.
9 Pungubhona a Nnungu bhashikutubhika uwe mitume tubhe tubhanndu bha kumpelo, pabha tushibhikwa tubhe mbuti bhandu bha bhulagwa pa lugwinjili, tulolwe na bhandu bha shilambolyo na ashimalaika.
δοκῶ ⸀γάρ ὁ θεὸς ἡμᾶς τοὺς ἀποστόλους ἐσχάτους ἀπέδειξεν ὡς ἐπιθανατίους, ὅτι θέατρον ἐγενήθημεν τῷ κόσμῳ καὶ ἀγγέλοις καὶ ἀνθρώποις.
10 Uwe tubhangumba kwa ligongo lya a Kilishitu, ikabheje mmanganya nshikolanga lunda nkulundana na a Kilishitu! Uwe twangali mashili, mmanganya nshikolanga. Mmanganya nnaishimiwanga, ikabheje uwe tukaishimiwa.
ἡμεῖς μωροὶ διὰ Χριστόν, ὑμεῖς δὲ φρόνιμοι ἐν Χριστῷ· ἡμεῖς ἀσθενεῖς, ὑμεῖς δὲ ἰσχυροί· ὑμεῖς ἔνδοξοι, ἡμεῖς δὲ ἄτιμοι.
11 Mpaka agano malanga gano, uwe tushikola nnjota na shibhanga twangali nngubho, tunapotekwa na twangali ndamo.
ἄχρι τῆς ἄρτι ὥρας καὶ πεινῶμεν καὶ διψῶμεν καὶ γυμνιτεύομεν καὶ κολαφιζόμεθα καὶ ἀστατοῦμεν
12 Tunaabhuka mmaengo twaashayene. Pututukanwa, tunakwajujilanga mboka, tupotekwaga tunakwiipililila,
καὶ κοπιῶμεν ἐργαζόμενοι ταῖς ἰδίαις χερσίν· λοιδορούμενοι εὐλογοῦμεν, διωκόμενοι ἀνεχόμεθα,
13 tulambililwaga, tunajangula kwa ishima. Mpaka nnaino putuli mbuti indu ya nunga na ya nyata pashilambolyo.
⸀δυσφημούμενοιπαρακαλοῦμεν· ὡς περικαθάρματα τοῦ κόσμου ἐγενήθημεν, πάντων περίψημα ἕως ἄρτι.
14 Ngaajandika gegano nkupinga nintokomayanje, ikabhe kwa ligongo lya kunneyanga mbuti ashibhanangu bhungumpinganga.
Οὐκ ἐντρέπων ὑμᾶς γράφω ταῦτα, ἀλλʼ ὡς τέκνα μου ἀγαπητὰ ⸀νουθετῶν
15 Pabha nkali nkwetenje bhaajiganya bhabhagwinji nndamo ja Shikilishitu, ikabheje ainabhenunji bhamope, pabha nne ninkwetenje nkulundana na a Kilishitu kwa lunguya Ngani ja Mmbone.
ἐὰν γὰρ μυρίους παιδαγωγοὺς ἔχητε ἐν Χριστῷ, ἀλλʼ οὐ πολλοὺς πατέρας, ἐν γὰρ Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ διὰ τοῦ εὐαγγελίου ἐγὼ ὑμᾶς ἐγέννησα.
16 Kwa nneyo, ngunakunshondelesheyanga nngagulanje nne shinguti tenda.
παρακαλῶ οὖν ὑμᾶς, μιμηταί μου γίνεσθε.
17 Kwa nneyo njikwaatuma a Timoteo kunngwenunji, bhanangu bhungwaapinga, bhaakulupalika nkulundana na Bhakulungwa. Shibhankumbushiyanje shingutama nne nkulundana na a Kilishitu, na majiganyo gangu mmakanisha gowe.
διὰ τοῦτο ἔπεμψα ὑμῖν Τιμόθεον, ὅς ἐστίν ⸂μου τέκνον ἀγαπητὸν καὶ πιστὸν ἐν κυρίῳ, ὃς ὑμᾶς ἀναμνήσει τὰς ὁδούς μου τὰς ἐν Χριστῷ ⸀Ἰησοῦ καθὼς πανταχοῦ ἐν πάσῃ ἐκκλησίᾳ διδάσκω.
18 Bhananji munkumbi gwenunji bhatandwibhenje kwiipunanga bhaliganishiyanga kuti ngaika kabhili kweneko.
ὡς μὴ ἐρχομένου δέ μου πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐφυσιώθησάν τινες·
19 Ikabheje, Bhakulungwa bhapingaga shing'ishe kunngwenunji, penepo shinole namwene, nngabha kwa pilikanape malobhe gabhonji, ikabhe na kugamanya mashili gabhonji.
ἐλεύσομαι δὲ ταχέως πρὸς ὑμᾶς, ἐὰν ὁ κύριος θελήσῃ, καὶ γνώσομαι οὐ τὸν λόγον τῶν πεφυσιωμένων ἀλλὰ τὴν δύναμιν,
20 Pabha upalume gwa a Nnungu nngabha ga malobhepe, ikabhe mashili.
οὐ γὰρ ἐν λόγῳ ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ ἀλλʼ ἐν δυνάμει.
21 Nkupinganga nndi? Ng'ishe na imbo eu ng'ishe na ntima gwa pingana na kwiitimalika?
τί θέλετε; ἐν ῥάβδῳ ἔλθω πρὸς ὑμᾶς, ἢ ἐν ἀγάπῃ πνεύματί τε πραΰτητος;
