1 Abhathesalonike 4
1 Waholo tihuwapela umoyo tihuwalawa hwa Yesu uKilisti. Shila shatiyenje mposheye afume hulite shihwanziwa ajende, husaye Ungolobhe, idala elioliamuwalaje hani.
For the rest, then, brethren, we beg you and exhort you in [the] Lord Jesus, even as ye have received from us how ye ought to walk and please God, even as ye also do walk, that ye would abound still more.
2 Mumenye ziatiwawozezie ashilile hwa Yesu aje zyenu.
For ye know what charges we gave you through the Lord Jesus.
3 Ego miza hwa Ngolobhe: Huyozye ahane izinaa,
For this is [the] will of God, [even] your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication;
4 Wekaweka amenye akhale nushi wakwe mwene huumoyo uzelu ni shishi.
that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honour,
5 Usahawe nushii wanyonywe nubele (nazi awatu wamusi wasaga wamwenye Ungolobhe).
(not in passionate desire, even as the nations who know not God, )
6 Asahawe umuntu wowonti yanzafyemele impaho ziahukosele uholo wakwe, nunongwa ene. U Bwana yuyo asomba isiasa shonti na huwawozye.
not overstepping the rights of and wronging his brother in the matter, because the Lord [is] the avenger of all these things, even as we also told you before, and have fully testified.
7 Ungolobhe sagaahatukwizizie aje tiwe ni ntavu. Ahatikwizizye tiwe numoyo uzelu.
For God has not called us to uncleanness, but in sanctification.
8 Eshi yakhanasangakhana watu ahukhana yu Ngolobhe, yahupela Umpepo Ufinjile wakwe.
He therefore that [in this] disregards [his brother], disregards, not man, but God, who has given also his Holy Spirit to you.
9 Hunongwa zya ulugomo waholo waho sagaihusimbila awaamanyizizye Ungolobhe agan'ane tete kwa tete.
Now concerning brotherly love ye have no need that we should write to you, for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
10 Imenye mwahawombile egagonti hwawaholo wawaleho hu Makedonia wonti, Eshi tihuwalawa muwaholo muombe shinza hani.
For also ye do this towards all the brethren in the whole of Macedonia; but we exhort you, brethren, to abound still more,
11 Tihuwalawa mnyonywaje akhale musi nupumu humbombozyenyu, na wombeji imbombo hunyowe zyenyu, nazishatiwalajizizye.
and to seek earnestly to be quiet and mind your own affairs, and work with your [own] hands, even as we charged you,
12 Wombaga ega nkujendaje sheinza ni shishi hwawantu wawalihonze wi lweteho, usahagaye liolionti lila.
that ye may walk reputably towards those without, and may have need of no one.
13 Sagatihuanza amwe aje msahamanye muwaholo aje ewowagonilegona msahazugumile lihwenza.
But we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them that are fallen asleep, to the end that ye be not grieved even as also the rest who have no hope.
14 Nkatihweteha aje u Yesu ahafyiye nantele ahazyoshele, Ungolobhe aiwatwala peka nu Yesu wawagonile hwitawa liakwe.
For if we believe that Jesus has died and has risen again, so also God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep through Jesus.
15 Tihuwawozya amwe hwizwi ilya Bwana aje tiwatutiliwomi lwahaiyenza u Bwana sagatahaiwatangalila wala wagonile ufwe. U Bwana yoyo ahaihwiha afume humwanya. Ahaiyeza peka ni palapanda ya Ngolobhe, wawafwinye hwitawa lya Yesu wahaizyoha.
(For this we say to you in [the] word of [the] Lord, that we, the living, who remain to the coming of the Lord, are in no way to anticipate those who have fallen asleep;
16 U Bwana yoyo ahaihwiha afume humwanya. Ahaiyeza peka nuhala uzelu ugosi peka ni palapanda ya Ngolobhe, wawafwinye hwitawa lya Yesu wahaizyoha.
for the Lord himself, with an assembling shout, with archangel's voice and with trump of God, shall descend from heaven; and the dead in Christ shall rise first;
17 Awomi wawasageye wahaisangana humawengo peka wahainyanyela u Bwana humwana tahaiwa nu Bwana isiku zyonti.
then we, the living who remain, shall be caught up together with them in [the] clouds, to meet the Lord in [the] air; and thus we shall be always with [the] Lord.
18 Myanganaje amazwi ega Mwe, mwe, mwe.
So encourage one another with these words.)
