1 Watesaloniki 3

1 Upeleru wakuwi tusinditi kuhepelera nentu, su tuamuwiti kusigala Aseni kulii gweka yetu,

Wherefore, no longer concealing our anxiety, we were well pleased to be left at Athens alone,

2 na kumtuma kwa twenga mlongu gwetu Timotewu, mweni ndo mtenda lihengu muyetu kwajili ya Mlungu mukubwera Shisoweru Shiwagira sha Kristu tumlagaliriti kawagangamaziyi na kuwatula moyu na kukamaziya njimiru yenu.

and sent Timothy, our brother, and a minister of God, and our fellow-laborer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you, and to exhort you concerning your faith:

3 Su kwahera muntu yoseri yakawuya kumbeli toziya ya magaziwu aga. Maweni mwenga hamvimani kuwera tufiruwa kupata ntabika.

that no one should be moved by these afflictions; for yourselves know that we are appointed to them.

4 Toziya patuweriti pamuhera na mwenga, tuwagambiriti kuwera hatutabisiwi su ilawiriti ntambu ira ayi, ntambu yamvimana.

For even when we were with you, we foretold you that we were to be afflicted; which also happened as you know.

5 Toziya ayi, nsinditi kuhepelera ng'anji su numjegiti Timotewu kwa mwenga su mpati visoweru vya njimiru yenu. Ntira kuwera kwa ntambu yingi mkondola kawajeriti na lihengu lyoseri lyatutenditi pakati pa mwenga lyagamili hera.

For this reason also, no longer concealing my anxiety, I sent to know your faith; lest by some means the tempter may have tempted you, and our labor have become in vain.

6 Kumbiti vinu Timotewu kawuyiti kala, yomberi katugambiriti visoweru viherepa kuusu njimiru yenu na mafiliru genu. Yomberi katugambiriti kuwera mutuhola mashaka goseri, na mfira kutuwona gambira twenga ntambu yatufira kuwawona mwenga.

But now, when Timothy came to us from you, and gave us the good news of your faith and love, and that you have good remembrance of us at all times, ardently desiring to see us, even as we also to see you;

7 Su waumini wayetu, mumagaziwu na ntabika zyetu zoseri, twenga tuwera na moyu toziya ya mwenga kupitira njimiru yenu,

by this, brethren, we were comforted concerning you in all our affliction and necessity, even by your faith.

8 toziya vinu nakaka twankulikala payiwera mwenga mgangamala mukulikolerana pamuhera na Mtuwa.

For now we live, when you stand firm in the Lord.

9 Kwa ntambu gaa tuweza kulonga mayagashii Mlungu toziya ya mwenga, kwa nemeleru yoseri yatuwera nayu kulongolu kwa Mlungu toziya ya mwenga?

But what thanksgiving can we return to God concerning you, for all the joy with which we rejoice, through you, in the presence of our God?

10 Pashiru na paliwala twenga tumluwa Mlungu kwa njimiru yetu yoseri tuwawoni kayi mwenga su tuwezi kushinyawa shilii shashipungukiti mumoyu mwa mwenga.

Night and day, most earnestly requesting to see your face, and to supply the deficiencies of your faith.

11 Twankumluwa Mlungu yakawera Tati gwetu mweni ndo Mtuwa gwetu Yesu, katutandiri njira ya kwiza kwa mwenga.

Now may God himself, even our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, make straight our way to you.

12 Mtuwa pamuhera na mwenga hamuwezi kutenda kwongereka na kugangamala mumafiliru kwa muntu na muyaguwi na kwa wantu woseri ntambu yatutenditi kwa mwenga.

And may the Lord fill you, and make you overflow with love to one another, and to all, even as we also to you;

13 Kwa njira ayi yomberi hakayigangamaziyi myoyu ya mwenga, na mwenga hamuweri pota na vidoda wananagala kulongolu kwa Mlungu yakawera Tati, Mtuwa gwetu Yesu pakizaku pamuhera na wananagala wakuwi woseri.

that he may establish your hearts unblamable in holiness, before God, even our Father, at the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, with all his saints.
