1 Watesaloniki 4
1 Vinu, waumini wayetu, mulifundi kulawa kwa twenga ntambu yamfiruwa kulikala su mmufiriziyi Mlungu, nakaka muwera mwankulikala ntambu ayi, vinu twankuwagambira kupitira mulitawu lya Mtuwa Yesu mwendereyi kutenda hangu nentu na nentu.
Finally then, brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to live and to please God, even as you are living, that you excel more and more.
2 Mwenga mugamana malagaliru gatuwapananiti mwenga kwa uwezu wa Mtuwa Yesu.
For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus.
3 Mlungu kafira mwenga muweri wananagala na mulituli gweka na makaliru ga uhumba.
For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality,
4 Kila mpalu katosheki na mdala gwakuwi kwa unanagala na ligoya,
that each one of you know how to possess himself of his own vessel in sanctification and honor,
5 na namulikala kwa matamata gadoda gambira wantu yawammana ndiri Mlungu.
not in the passion of lust, even as the nations who do not know God;
6 Su muntu yoseri nakamtendera vidoda ama kumpunja myaguwi mushitwatira ashi, ntambu yatuwagambiriti na kuwaberiziya, Mtuwa hakawazibu woseri yawatenda vitwatira avi.
that no one should take advantage of and wrong a brother or sister in this matter; because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we forewarned you and testified.
7 Mlungu katushema ndiri tulikali makaliru ga uhumba, kumbiti tulikali muunanagala.
For God called us not for uncleanness, but in sanctification.
8 Su muntu yoseri yakagalema mafundu aga kamlema ndiri muntu kumbiti kamlema Mlungu yakawapanana Rohu gwakuwi Mnanagala.
Therefore he who rejects this does not reject man, but God, who has also given his Holy Spirit to you.
9 Vinu kwa visoweru vya kuwafira waumini wayenu, twenga tufira ndiri kuwalembera mwenga, maweni mwenga mfunditwi na Mlungu ntambu yamfiruwa kulifira.
But concerning brotherly love, you have no need that one write to you. For you yourselves are taught by God to love one another,
10 Nakaka mwenga muweriti mwankuwatendera hangu waumini wayenu kila pahala Mumakedoniya. Tuwaluwani waumini wayetu su mtendi nentu na nentu.
for indeed you do it toward all the brothers who are in all Macedonia. But we exhort you, brothers, that you abound more and more;
11 Muweri na nfiru ya kulikala makaliru gakutenda ndiri umatu, kila yumu katendi shitwatira shakuwi mweni na katendi lihengu kwa mawoku gakuwi mweni ntambu yawatuwalagaliriti pamberi.
and that you make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, even as we instructed you;
12 Kwa ntambu ayi, hamliyupi zyumi iyerepa kulawa kwa walii yawawera ndiri Wakristu, hamuweri ndiri na toziya kuwatumbira wamonga kwa mafiliru genu.
that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.
13 Walongu wayetu, twenga tufira muvimani unakaka kuusu walii yawahowiti, su namuhinginika mumoyu gambira wantu yawahera litumbiru.
But we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep, so that you do not grieve like the rest, who have no hope.
14 Twenga tujimira kuwera Yesu kahowiti na kazyukiti, su tujimira kuwera Mlungu hakawawuziyi pamuhera na Yesu, woseri walii yawahowiti pawamjimira yomberi.
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus.
15 Shilii shatuwafundani ndo lifundu lya Mtuwa kuwera twenga yatulikala, patusigala mpaka kwiza kayi kwa Mtuwa, nakaka hapeni tuwalongoleri walii yawahowiti.
For this we tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left to the coming of the Lord, will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep.
16 Toziya Mtuwa mweni hakizi kulawa kumpindi kwa Mlungu pamuhera na amuli na liziwu lya ntumintumi gwa kumpindi mkulu gwa Mlungu na mliwu gwa mbalapi lya Mlungu. Su walii yawahowiti pawamwamini Kristu hawazyukisiwi huti.
For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with God's trumpet. The dead in Christ will rise first,
17 Shakapanu twenga yatulikala, mushipindi ashi hatujojinirwi pamuhera na womberi mumawundi kuliwona na Mtuwa kulyera, su hatuweri mashaka goseri pamuhera na Mtuwa.
then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.
18 Su mulitangi kuwera na moyu maweni mwenga kupitira visoweru avi.
Therefore comfort one another with these words.
