1 Watesaloniki 1

1 Neni paulu na Silwanu na Timotewu kwa shipinga sha wantu yawamjimira Yesu wa Tesaloniki, ndo wantu wakuwi Tati Mlungu, na gwa Mtuwa Yesu Kristu. Manemu na ponga gaweri pamuhera na mwenga.

Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, to the assembly of Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!

2 Mashaka goseri nonga maya gashii Mlungu kwajili ya mwenga, na kuhola mashaka goseri mkuluwa kwetu.

We always give thanks to God for you all, making mention of you in our prayers,

3 Kulongolu kwa Mlungu Tati gwetu tuwahola ntambu yamlanguziya njimiru yenu kwa matendu, ufiru wenu ntambu yauweza kutenda lihengu kwa kugangamala, na ntambu litumbiru lyenu mumtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu.

unceasingly remembering your work of faith, and the labor of the love, and the endurance of the hope, of our Lord Jesus Christ, in the presence of our God and Father,

4 Walongu wayetu tuvimana handa Mlungu kawafira na handa kawasyagula muweri wantu wakuwi.

having known, beloved brothers, by God, your [divine] selection,

5 Toziya shipindi patuwabwelireni Shisoweru Shiwagira shilii shiweriti ndiri shisoweru hera, kwa likakala lya Rohu Mnanagala patuwera na unakaka handa ujumbi awu uweriti wanakaka. Muvimana ntambu yatulikaliti pamuhera na mwenga, tulikala kwa mota ya mwenga.

because our good news did not come to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and in much assurance, even as you have known of what sort we became among you for your sake,

6 Mwenga mfatiti mfanu gwetu, mumjera Mtuwa. Tembera mbeziwitwi nentu, muuyangiti ujumbi awu kwa nemeleru kulawa kwa Rohu Mnanagala.

and you became imitators of us and of the LORD, having received the word in much tribulation with joy of the Holy Spirit,

7 Hangu mwenga mwa mfanu guherepa kwa shipinga sha wajimira woseri wa Makedoniya na Akaya.

so that you became patterns to all those believing in Macedonia and Achaia,

8 Toziya kulawirana na gangamalu ya mwenga ujumbi wa Mtuwa upikinirika aku ndiri Makedoniya na Akaya hera, kumbiti njimiru yenu kwa Mlungu yenea poseri. Kayi tufira ndiri kutakula nentu.

for from you has sounded forth the word of the LORD, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God went forth, so that we have no need to say anything,

9 Wantu awa wankuyowera kutyangira kwetu kwiza kwa mwenga, ntambu yamvilekiti kuviguwira vinyagu, wamtenderi Mlungu yakawera mkomu na gwa nakaka.

for they themselves declare concerning us what entrance we had to you, and how you turned to God from the idols, to serve a living and true God,

10 Na vinu wangumhepera Mwana gwakuwi kasuluki kulawa kumpindi kwa Mlungu, Mwana ayu ndo Yesu, mweni Mlungu kamzyukisiyiti kulawa kwa wahowiti na mweni kankutulopoziya mumaya ga Mlungu yagayiza.

and to wait for His Son from the heavens, whom He raised out of the dead—Jesus, who is rescuing us from the anger that is coming.
