1 Timoti 2
1 Naizvozvo, pakutanga kwezvose, ndinokurayirai kuti vanhu vose vakumbirirwe, vanyengetererwe, varevererwe, vavongerwe,
I exhort therefore, that first of all supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks be made for all men;
2 madzimambo navose vari kutonga, kuti tigare norugare uye norunyararo pakurarama muumwari hwose nomuutsvene.
For kings, and [for] all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 Izvi zvakanaka uye zvinofadza Mwari muponesi wedu.
For this [is] good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior;
4 Anoda kuti vanhu vose vaponeswe uye kuti vazive chokwadi.
Who will have all men to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
5 Nokuti kuna Mwari mumwe chete, nomurevereri mumwe chete pakati paMwari navanhu, ndiye munhu Kristu Jesu.
For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
6 Uyo akazvipa sorudzikinuro kuvanhu vose, uchapupu hwakapiwa panguva yakafanira.
Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
7 Uye nokuda kwechikonzero ichi ndakaitwa muparidzi nomupostori, ndinokuudzai chokwadi, handisi kureva nhema, uye ndiri mudzidzisi wokutenda kwechokwadi kune veDzimwe Ndudzi.
For which I am ordained a preacher and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, [and] lie not) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
8 Ndinoda kuti varume kwose kwose vasimudze maoko matsvene pakunyengetera, vasina kutsamwa kana nharo.
I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.
9 Ndinodawo kuti vakadzi vapfeke zvakafanira, zvakanaka zvino kuzvidzora, kwete nebvudzi rakarukwa kana negoridhe kana namaperera kana nguo dzemari zhinji,
In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in decent apparel, with modesty and sobriety; not with broidered hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array,
10 asi ngavave namabasa akanaka, sezvakafanira vakadzi vanoti vanonamata Mwari.
But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
11 Mukadzi ngaadzidze akanyarara uye nokuzviisa pasi kwose.
Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
12 Handitenderi kuti mukadzi adzidzise kana kuti ave nesimba pamusoro pomurume; anofanira kunyarara.
But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
13 Nokuti Adhamu ndiye akatanga kuumbwa, tevere Evha.
For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
14 Uye Adhamu haasi iye akanyengerwa; mukadzi ndiye akanyengerwa akava mutadzi.
And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
15 Asi vakadzi vachaponeswa nokubereka vana kana vachirambira mukutenda, murudo noutsvene, uye nokuzvidzora.
Notwithstanding, she will be saved in child-bearing, if they continue in faith, and charity, and holiness, with sobriety.
