1 Timotewu 6
1 Wamanda woseri wafiruwa kuwagoya watuwa wawu, su nakuwera na toziya ya wantu kulihigilanga litawu lya Mlungu na kubeziya mafunda getu.
Let those who are under the yoke as slaves esteem their masters as worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and the teachings be not blasphemed.
2 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.
Those whose masters are Christian believers must not treat them with disrespect, because they are brothers; nay, rather slave for them the better because those who get the benefit of their services are believing and beloved. Continue to teach and preach this.
3 Handa muntu yoseri yakafunda mafundu gamonga, nayomberi kajimira ndiri visoweru vya nakaka vya Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu na mafundu mumakaliru ga kumfiriziya Mlungu,
If any one teaches heterodoxy, and refuses to consent to the wholesome words of the Lord Jesus Christ, and to the teachings of religion,
4 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,
he is puffed up with conceit and knows nothing, but is doting about disputations and a strife of words. These give rise to envy, quarrels, railings, evil suspicions,
5 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.
and wrangling between men whose minds are corrupt and destitute of the truth; who suppose that godliness is a source of gain.
6 Kutenda ntambu yakafira Mlungu pamuhera na kutosheka kwana mota nkulu.
Now godliness with contentment is truly gainful;
7 Toziya tujega ndiri shintu mupasipanu wala tuweza ndiri kuwuya na shintu.
for we have brought nothing into the world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out!
8 Kumbiti handa patuwera nashi shiboga na nguwu, tufiruwa tutosheki navi.
So if we have food and shelter, let us be content with that.
9 Kumbiti walii yawafira kuwera walunda waguwira mumajera na mgomiziwu, na mumatamata ya uzigizigi yaujega kutenduwa guwakwega mukuguwa na uharabisiya.
Those who desire to be rich fall into the snares of temptation and many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
10 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.
For the love of money is a source of all kinds of evil; and in their eager desire to be rich some have been led astray form the faith, and have pierced themselves with many sorrows.
11 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.
But you, O servant of God, flee from these things, and run after integrity, piety, faith, love, stedfastness, gentleness.
12 Gutendi ngangamalu kugakanka majeru muujimira gwakalipananiri lifupu lya ukomu wa mashaka goseri lyagushemilitwi shipindi pagujimiriti njimiru yaku palongolu pa wakapitawu wavuwa. (aiōnios g166)
Keep contending in the noble contest of the faith; seize hold on eternal life, to which you were called when you confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
13 Nukulagalira kulongolu kwa Mlungu yakavipananiti ukomu vintu vyoseri, na kulongolu kwa Kristu Yesu yakalaviyiti ukapitawu wa unakaka kulongolu kwa Pontiu Pilatu,
In the presence of God who gives life to all, and of Christ Jesus who bore witness to the good confession before Pontius Pilate,
14 nukulagalira gugakoli malagaliru aga pota likosa na kugajimira kwa kwaminika mpaka lishaka Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu pakalawira.
I charge you, keep your commission spotless and irreproachable until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 Kulawira kwakuwi hakutendeki shipindi shashifaa shitulitwi na Mlungu mpetelwa na yakawera mkolamlima gwa gweka, Mfalumi gwa wafalumi na Mtuwa gwa watuwa.
For in his own good time this will be brought about by that blessed and only potentate, King of kings and Lord of lords,
16 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)
who alone possesses immortality, who dwells in light that none can approach, whom no man has ever seen or can see; to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen. (aiōnios g166)
17 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)
Charge the rich of this world not to be supercilious, nor to trust in uncertain riches, but in God, who provides all things richly for our use. (aiōn g165)
18 Guwalagaliri watendi maheri, waweri watenda mafiliru gaherepa gavuwa, naweri wakalamuka na waweri kala kukolerana na wamonga ulunda wawu.
Charge them to practise benevolence, to be rich in good works, to be open-handed and generous,
19 Kwa kutenda hangu hakuwatangi kupata ukomu wa mashaka goseri handa vilii muntu hakalijojiniliri vintu vivuwa havimtangi shipindi shashisoka.
laying up right good treasure for themselves in the world to come, in order that they may obtain the Life which is life indeed.
20 Timotewu, gushikoleri weri shirii shagupananitwi. Gulishapiri matakuziyanu ga madoda na ukakatala wa shizyigizyigi wa shirii shawashema wantu wamonga “Umana,” Kumbiti umana ndiri.
O, Timothy, guard the treasure which is committed to you. Shun the profane babblings and contradictions of the falsely called "knowledge"
21 Toziya wamonga wajimira wawera na umana wa mpayu, kulawirana kwakuwi wahagamiziya njimiru. Nuwafilireni mwawoseri maheri ga Mlungu. Maheri ga Mlungu gaweri pamuhera na mwenga.
which some professing have erred from the faith. Grace be with you.
