Warumi 12
1 Su, waganja wangu toziya lusungu likulu lya Mlungu kwa twenga, muzilaviyi nshimba zya mwenga kuwera tambiku nkomu, yaiwera nanagala na yayimfiriziya Mlungu. Ayi ndo njira nakaka ya mwenga ya kumguwira.
Wherefore, brethren, I beseech you, by the tender mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.
2 Namulikala makaliru ga pasipanu, kumbiti mulikali makaliru gakafira Mlungu. Mlungu katendi magalambula ga myoyu yamwenga kwa kugagalambula maholu ga mwenga. Shakapanu hamuwezi kugamana gakafira Mlungu na kushimana shitwatira shiheri shashimuherepeziya yomberi na shashikamilika. (aiōn g165)
And be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind; that you may approve the will of God, which is good, and acceptable, and perfect. (aiōn g165)
3 Toziya ya manemu ga lifupu lya Mlungu kwa neni, nankumgambira kila muntu pakati penu, nagulihola nentu gumweni kuliku ntambu yagufiruwa kuwera. Kumbiti maholu genu gaweri na shyasi na guliholi gumweni kulawirana na njimiru ilii Mlungu yakakupananiti.
Also, by the favor which is given to me, I charge every one of you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think modestly, as God has distributed to every one a portion of his faith.
4 Twana viwungiru vivuwa munshimba yimu na kila shiwungiru shana lihengu lyakuwi.
For, as in one body we have many members, but all the members have not the same office;
5 Ntambu iraa ayi tembera twenga tuvuwa, twenga twa nshimba yimu kwa kukolerana na Kristu na kila yumu kawera shiwungiru sha muyaguwi.
so we, the many, are one body under Christ, and individually members of one another.
6 Su twenga tugatenderi mafupu getu ga ntambu yingiyingi kulawirana na manemu ga Mlungu gakatupananiti. Handa lifupu lya twenga ndo kubwera ujumbi wa Mlungu, tufiruwa tutendi kulawirana na njimiru yatuwera nayu.
Having, then, gifts, differing according to the favor which is given to us--if prophecy act according to the measure of faith--
7 Handa twana lifupu lya kutendera, su tutendi. Handa twana lifupu lya kufunda, su tufundi.
if a ministerial office, in that office--if one is a teacher, in teaching--
8 Handa twana lifupu lya kuwatenda wamonga waweri na moyu, su tufiruwa tutendi. Handa twana lifupu lya kulaviya, su tufiruwa kulaviya kwa moyu guherepa. Handa twana lifupu lya kugolokera lihengu, su tufiruwa tugolokeri kwa kugangamala. Handa twana lifupu lwa kuwonera lusungu, su tufiruwa kutenda hangu kwa nemeleru.
and the exhorter, in exhortation. Let him who distributes act with disinterestedness--him that presides, with assiduity--him that shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
9 Mafiliru genu gafiruwa gakamiliki. Mshikalaliri shitwatira shoseri shikondola, mtendi galii gaherepa.
Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor the evil--adhere closely to the good.
10 Mulifiri maweni na kila yumu kamuholi kwanja muyaguwi kwa ligoya.
In brotherly love, be tenderly affectionate to one another--in honor, prefer one another.
11 Muweri wagangamala mulihengu, namuwera goyigoyi. Mumtenderi Mtuwa kwa moyu gwagunemelera.
In business, be not slothful. Be fervent in spirit-- constant in serving the Lord.
12 Litumbiru lyenu liwatendi mwenga munemeleri, muweri wahepelera muntabika zyaku na msali mashaka goseri.
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, steadfastly persevering in prayer.
13 Muwapanani wantu wa Mlungu muvintu vyawafira na muwashemeri wahenga ukaya kwenu.
Communicate to the necessities of the saints. Follow hospitality to strangers.
14 Mumluwi Mlungu kawatekeleri woseri yawawatabisiya, mumluwi yomberi kawatekeleri na namuwapangira.
Bless them who persecute you--bless, and curse not.
15 Munemeleri pamuhera na yawawera na nemeleru, mlili pamuhera na woseri yawalira.
Rejoice with them who rejoice, and weep with them who weep.
16 Mulikali kwa ponga pakati penu. Namuwera na msindu kumbiti mwenga mnanagali. Namulihola maweni kuwera mwawaherepa kuliku wantu wamonga.
Be of the same disposition toward one another. Do not care for high things; but accommodate yourselves to those which are humble. Be not wise in your own conceits.
17 Handa muntu yoseri pakakutendera vidoda, gwenga nagumtendera vidoda viraa yomberi. Gwenga gutendi gaherepa kulongolu kwa woseri.
To no one return evil for evil. Seek after things honorable in the sight of all men.
18 Gutendi shoseri shashiwezekana kuwera na ponga na kila muntu.
What relates to you is, live in peace with all men, if possible.
19 Waganja wangu namuwuzilira shisasi, kumbiti mumlekeli Mlungu shitwatira ashi. Mtuwa kalonga Mumalembu Mananagala, “Hambuziliri shisasi, handipi.”
Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but give place to the wrath of God; for it is written, "Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord."
20 Nentu ga aga, Malembu Mananagala galembwa, “Handa mngondu gwaku pakawera na njala, gumpanani shiboga, pakawera na kwimuluwa, gumpanani mashi kalandi. Kwa kutenda hangu hagumtendi kapati soni nentu gambira makala ga motu pa mtuwi gwakuwi.”
Therefore, if your enemy hunger, give him food: if he thirst, give him drink: for by doing this, you will heap coals of fire on his head.
21 Naguleka vidoda vikusindi, kumbiti guwusindi ukondola kwa uheri.
Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
