1 Timotewu 1
1 Neni Paulu ntumintumi gwa Kristu Yesu kwa lilagaliru lya Mlungu Mlopoziya gwetu na Kristu Yesu litumbiru lyetu.
Paul an apostle of Jesus Christ by the appointment of God our Saviour, and the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,
2 Nukulembera Timotewu yaguwera gambira mwana gwangu gwa nakaka munjimiru. Mlungu Tati gwetu na Mtuwa gwetu Kristu Yesu kakupanani gwenga manemu ga Mlungu na lusungu na ponga.
to Timothy my true son in the faith, be grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 Gulikali aku Efesu, handa ntambu yanukuluwiti nentu panweriti nankugenda Makedoniya. Na aku guwaleweleri wantu walii yawafunda mafundu ga mpayu.
As I exhorted thee to stay at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge certain persons not to teach other doctrine,
4 Guwagambiri nawakolerana na tambu hera za kupaya pamuhera na kuvimana matawu ga wambuyi yagahera upeleru. Na kugamana matawu gavuwa ga wambuyi, geni gajega likakatala hera, pota kuwanyawa wantu mulihengu lya Mlungu lyalimanika kwa njimiru.
nor attend to fables and endless genealogies, which occasion debates, rather than pious edification in the faith:
5 Nfiru ya amuli ayi ndo mafiliru yagalawa munjimiru iherepa na kufira kusyagula gaherepa na moyu gwa gwehera vidoda.
so do, and acquaint them that the end of that charge is charity, out of a pure heart, and a good conscience, and faith unfeigned:
6 Wantu wamu waleka njira kwa kugaleka aga na kuvigendera vitwatira vyavifaa ndiri.
from which some having swerved are turned aside to vain discourses;
7 Womberi wafira waweri wafunda wa Malagaliru ga Musa, kumbiti wavimana ndiri shawatakula ama galii gawagolokera.
desiring to be teachers of the law, though they neither understand what they say, nor what things they assert.
8 Tuvimana handa Malagaliru ga Musa gaherepa, handa pakagatendera ntambu yaifiruwa.
But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;
9 Ntambu iraayi gufiruwa kulihola handa Malagaliru ga Musa gatulwa ndiri toziya ya wantu waheri, kumbiti gatulwa toziya ya wantu yawamega malagaliru ga Musa na wantu yawajimira ndiri na wantu yawamtira ndiri Mlungu na wana vidoda na wantu wananagala ndiri na yawamana ndiri njira ya Mlungu na wantu yawawalaga wamawu na watati wawu ama walaga woseri walii.
knowing this, that a law does not lie against a righteous person, but against the lawless and unruly, the impious and wicked, the unholy and profane,
10 Malagaliru ga Musa gatulwa toziya ya wahumba na wapalu yawaligonja weni kwa weni na yawashuwuza wantu na yawapaya na yawalilapira kwa upaya ama yawatenda shoseri sha kugenderana ndiri na mafundu ga nakaka.
parricides, murderers, whoremongers, sodomites, kidnappers, liars, false-swearers, and if there be any thing else contrary to that sound doctrine,
11 Mafundu aga gapatikana Mushisoweru Shiwagira sha ukwisa wa Mlungu yakawera na matekeleru, ndogeni gampananitwi neni mpati kushibwera.
which is according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I was intrusted.
12 Mayagashii Mtuwa gwetu Kristu Yesu yakampananiti makakala, toziya ya lihengu lyangu. Nongamayagashi kwa kumona neni ndo mwaminika, kansyaguliti numtenderi.
And I give thanks to Christ Jesus our Lord, who gave me ability for the work, that He accounted me faithful, having put me into the ministry,
13 Makashu neni nweriti mwigiranga na mtabisiya na ndenditi ndewu, kumbiti Mlungu kamonera lusungu toziya nweriti ndiri na moyu, hangu nuvimaniti ndiri shanweriti nankutenda.
who before was a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and an oppressor. But I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief: and the grace of our Lord superabounded,
14 Na Mtuwa gwetu kamupananiti manemu gakuwi gavuwa, kamupananiti njimiru na mafiliru gatuwera naga kwa mukuwera pamuhera na Kristu Yesu.
with faith and love in Christ Jesus.
15 Utakula awu wanakaka nentu na ufaa kujimilwa, Kristu Yesu kiziti pasipanu kuwalopoziya wantu yawatenda vidoda. Naneni nanavidoda nentu ya woseri,
It is a truth highly to be believed, and worthy to be received by all, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners: ---of whom I am one of the chief.
16 Kumbiti Mlungu kamoniriti lusungu neni nweriti nana vidoda nentu ya woseri su Kristu Yesu kalanguziyi uhepera wakuwi woseri kwa neni, handa shilanguziwu kwa walii woseri hawamjimiri shapakanu na kwanka ukomu wa mashaka goseri. (aiōnios g166)
But for this end I obtained mercy, that in me a chief sinner Jesus Christ might display his long-suffering, for an example to those who should afterwards believe on Him to eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
17 Vinu kwa Mfalumi gwa mashaka goseri, yakaweza ndiri kuhowa na yakawoneka ndiri, Mlungu gwa gweka, su na iweri ligoya na ukwisa mashaka goseri! Yina haa. (aiōn g165)
Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
18 Mwanagwangu Timotewu, nukupanana lilagaliru ali toziya ya visoweru vya umbuyi wa Mlungu vyavikutakulira gwenga pamakashu. Guvitendi visoweru avi su guwezi kulikomanga ngondu iyerepa ya kulikomanga na ukondola,
This charge I commit to thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which before came on thee, that by them thou mightest war a good warfare,
19 Na gukamuli weri njimiru yaku na kuwera muntu wa kusyagula na kutenda yagawera gaherepa. Wantu wamonga waleka kutenda aga ata waguhalibiziya moyu gwawu.
having faith and a good conscience, which some putting away have made shipwreck concerning the faith:
20 Pakati pawu Himenayu na Alekizanda, ndoweni nuwapanani kwa Shetani, su wavimani nawamwigilanga Mlungu kayi.
of whom is Hymeneus and Alexander, whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
