1 KuThimothi 6
1 Bonke abangaphansi kwejogwe, izigqili, kabathi amakhosi abo afanele konke ukuhlonitshwa, ukuze ibizo likaNkulunkulu lemfundiso kungahlanjazwa;
Wamanda woseri wafiruwa kuwagoya watuwa wawu, su nakuwera na toziya ya wantu kulihigilanga litawu lya Mlungu na kubeziya mafunda getu.
2 labalamakhosi akholwayo bangawadeleli, ngoba engabazalwane; kodwa kulalokhu kabawasebenzele, ngoba ekholwa njalo ethandeka, abahlanganyeli benzuzo. Fundisa njalo ukhuthaze lezizinto.
Wamanda weni watuwa wawu ndo wantu yawamjimira Yesu nawawabeziya toziya wawaholera womberi ndo walongu wayawu. Pambeli pakuwi, wafiruwa kuwatendera viherepa nentu, Kumbiti wafiruwa kuwatendera weri nentu, toziya awa wawapata ulunda kulinginirana na lihengu lyawu ndo wajimira weni wawafira. Gufiruwa kufunda na kubwera vitwatira avi.
3 Uba kukhona ofundisa okwehlukileyo, njalo engavumelani lamazwi aphilileyo, aweNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu, lemfundiso evumelana lokukhonza uNkulunkulu,
Handa muntu yoseri yakafunda mafundu gamonga, nayomberi kajimira ndiri visoweru vya nakaka vya Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu na mafundu mumakaliru ga kumfiriziya Mlungu,
4 uyazikhukhumeza, engazi lutho, kodwa ubulawa yinkani lemibuzo lokuphikisana ngamazwi, okuvela kukho umona, umbango, ukuthuka, imicabango emibi,
yomberi kamema malingisi na wala kashimana ndiri shintu. Yomberi ndo yakafira likakatala na ndewu kwa visoweru vyahera na haga gajega weya na ndewu na umatu na mayigilangu na kupayirana,
5 ukuxabaxabana kwabantu abangqondo yabo yonakele, labalahlekelwe liqiniso, besithi ukukhonza uNkulunkulu kuyindlela yenzuzo. Zehlukanise labanjalo.
na likakatala lyangali kuwera na upereru wa wantu weni mahala gawu gaperiti, weni wahera kayi unakaka. Ndo walii yawalihola handa kutenda lihengu lya Mlungu ndo njira ya kulipatira ulunda.
6 Kodwa ukukhonza uNkulunkulu lokwenela kuyinzuzo enkulu;
Kutenda ntambu yakafira Mlungu pamuhera na kutosheka kwana mota nkulu.
7 ngoba kasizanga lalutho emhlabeni; kusobala ukuthi kasiyikusuka lalutho;
Toziya tujega ndiri shintu mupasipanu wala tuweza ndiri kuwuya na shintu.
8 kodwa uba silokudla lezembatho sizakweneliswa yikho.
Kumbiti handa patuwera nashi shiboga na nguwu, tufiruwa tutosheki navi.
9 Kodwa abafisa ukunotha bawela ekulingweni lemjibileni, lenkanukweni ezinengi zobuphukuphuku ezilimazayo, ezicwilisela abantu encithakalweni lekubhujisweni;
Kumbiti walii yawafira kuwera walunda waguwira mumajera na mgomiziwu, na mumatamata ya uzigizigi yaujega kutenduwa guwakwega mukuguwa na uharabisiya.
10 ngoba uthando lwemali luyimpande yakho konke okubi; abanye beyifisa, baduhile ekholweni, bazigwaza ngenhlungu ezinengi.
Toziya kufira mpiya nentu ndo shanziru sha ukondola woseri. Wantu wamonga wafiriti nentu kupata mpiya ata wayerayera kutali na njimiru, na wayitenduziya myoyu yawu kwa hinginika nkulu.
11 Kodwa wena, O muntu kaNkulunkulu, balekela lezizinto; njalo udingisise ukulunga, ukwesaba uNkulunkulu, ukholo, uthando, ukubekezela, ubumnene.
Kumbiti gwenga muntu gwa Mlungu, gulikali kutali na vitwatira avi vya ukondola. Gutendi galii yagakutenda gujimiriki kwa Mlungu na gakumfiriziya Mlungu na ujimira na ufiru na uhepelera na unanaga.
12 Lwana ukulwa okuhle kokholo, ubambelele empilweni ephakade, owabizelwa kuyo, wavuma uvumo oluhle phambi kwabafakazi abanengi. (aiōnios g166)
Gutendi ngangamalu kugakanka majeru muujimira gwakalipananiri lifupu lya ukomu wa mashaka goseri lyagushemilitwi shipindi pagujimiriti njimiru yaku palongolu pa wakapitawu wavuwa. (aiōnios g166)
13 Ngiyakulaya phambi kukaNkulunkulu ophilisa konke, loKristu Jesu owafakaza uvumo oluhle phambi kukaPontiyusi Pilatu,
Nukulagalira kulongolu kwa Mlungu yakavipananiti ukomu vintu vyoseri, na kulongolu kwa Kristu Yesu yakalaviyiti ukapitawu wa unakaka kulongolu kwa Pontiu Pilatu,
14 ukuthi ugcine umthetho ungelasici, ungasoleki, kuze kube sekubonakaleni kweNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu,
nukulagalira gugakoli malagaliru aga pota likosa na kugajimira kwa kwaminika mpaka lishaka Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu pakalawira.
15 ozakubonakalisa ngezakhe izikhathi obusisiweyo loSomandla oyedwa, iNkosi yamakhosi, loMbusi wababusi,
Kulawira kwakuwi hakutendeki shipindi shashifaa shitulitwi na Mlungu mpetelwa na yakawera mkolamlima gwa gweka, Mfalumi gwa wafalumi na Mtuwa gwa watuwa.
16 yena yedwa olokungafi, ohlala ekukhanyeni okungelakusondelelwa, akulamuntu ebantwini owambonayo, kumbe ongambona; okukuye udumo lamandla aphakade. Ameni. (aiōnios g166)
Yomberi gweka yakuwi kalikala mashaka goseri muulangala gweni kwahera muntu yakaweza kugusegelera. Kwahera muntu yakamwoniti ama kwahera muntu yakaweziti kumwona. Kwa yomberi liweri ligoya na makakala gamashaka goseri! Yina haa. (aiōnios g166)
17 Laya abanothileyo emhlabeni wakhathesi ukuthi bangazigqaji, bangathembeli ekungaqondini kwenotho, kodwa kuNkulunkulu ophilayo osipha ngokunotha zonke izinto ukuze sithokoze, (aiōn g165)
Guwalagaliri wantu yawawera walunda muvitwatira vya makaliru ga vinu, nawalibinda ntumbiru lyawu muulunda ya vintu vyakulitumbira ndiri. Kumbiti wamtumbiliri Mlungu yakatupanana vintu vyoseri kwa uvuwa toziya tunemelerwi navi. (aiōn g165)
18 benze okuhle, banothe emisebenzini emihle, balungele ukupha, ukwabelana ngesihle,
Guwalagaliri watendi maheri, waweri watenda mafiliru gaherepa gavuwa, naweri wakalamuka na waweri kala kukolerana na wamonga ulunda wawu.
19 bazibekele isisekelo esihle sibekelwa okuzayo, ukuze babambe impilo elaphakade.
Kwa kutenda hangu hakuwatangi kupata ukomu wa mashaka goseri handa vilii muntu hakalijojiniliri vintu vivuwa havimtangi shipindi shashisoka.
20 O Timothi, londoloza kuhle okubekwe kuwe, uxwaye ukukhuluma okuyize okungcolileyo lokuphikisana kwalokho okuthiwa lulwazi kungeyisilo,
Timotewu, gushikoleri weri shirii shagupananitwi. Gulishapiri matakuziyanu ga madoda na ukakatala wa shizyigizyigi wa shirii shawashema wantu wamonga “Umana,” Kumbiti umana ndiri.
21 okuthe abanye ngokukuvuma baduha ekholweni. Umusa kawube lawe. Ameni.
Toziya wamonga wajimira wawera na umana wa mpayu, kulawirana kwakuwi wahagamiziya njimiru. Nuwafilireni mwawoseri maheri ga Mlungu. Maheri ga Mlungu gaweri pamuhera na mwenga.
