Timoti 6
1 avakami vooni avitiki, vijisyaghe kuvavombelua vaave, kuuti ilitavua lya Nguluve ni mbulanisio siitnasingabenapulwaghe.
As many as are under the yoke of slavery should consider their own owners to be worthy of full respect, so that God's name and doctrine not be slandered.
2 avakami vano avavombelua vaave vitiki, valekaghe pikuvabenapula ulwakuva va kipugha kimo. ulwene vanoghile kukuvavombela, vunofu na pikila, apuo viiva vikuvatanga avajanave mulwitio, kange avuo vaghanike vaave. isio uvulanisiaghe na kupavila.
Those who have owners who are believers must not disregard them because they are brothers; instead they must serve them even better, because those receiving the good service are believers and beloved. Teach and exhort these things.
3 kwevale avanhu vano vivulanisia imbulanisio sa vudesi. sino vivulanisia nasikwiting'hana na masio amanya vwumi agha Mmutwa ghwitu uYesu Kilisite, kange nasikwiting'hana nu vwimike.
If anyone teaches differently and does not consent to sound words, the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine that accords with godliness,
4 avuo vamemile ulughinio, kange navakagwile kimonga. avanhu avuo vikwumilila mulukaani ulusila luvumbulilo vwimila utusio utudebe. mu uluo jihumila igiila, amabaatu, amaligho, angananio,
he is conceited and understands nothing. Rather he is obsessed with controversies and hair-splitting word battles, from which come envy, strife, slanderings, evil suspicions,
5 kange jaatu ghinangania amapuling'ano. avaanhu avuo vanangiike uluhala, vasila vwakyang'ani visaagha kuuti kuvomba imbombo ija Nguluve je sila ija kukavila ikyuma.
constant wranglings of men with corrupted minds and destitute of the Truth, who suppose that godliness is a means to financial gain. Keep away from such people.
6 ulwakuuva ni kyuma luvumbulilo, neke umuunhu iiva nu luvumbulilo ulukome, pano ikumwitika uNguluve na kukwilana ni fiinu fino ali nafyo.
Now godliness with contentment is great gain.
7 ulwakuuva muiisi muno natwalisile na kimonga, kange natungavuuke na kimonga,
We brought nothing into the world and it is certain that neither can we take anything out.
8 looli tungave ni kyakulia ni fya kufwala tukwilanaghe nifio.
So having food and clothing we will be content with that.
9 neke vavo vali nu vunoghelua uvwa kyuma vwimila mungelo, nakughwilila munhegho na muvunoghelua uvwa kijasu vuno vukuvanangania. uluo lukuvapelela kupumuka kyongo.
But those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a snare and into many foolish and harmful desires, that plunge people into ruin and loss;
10 ulwakuva kukusighana kyongo indalama vwe vutengulilo vwa vuvili vwinga. vamonga vinoghilue isio vasyangilue valulekile ulwitiko, pe vali muvuvafi uvukome hwene muunhu juno ikuhoma nu mmaghe.
because the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil; in their greediness some have been led away from the faith and have impaled themselves on many distresses.
11 looli uve ghwe muunhu ghwa Nguluve, usikimbilaghe isio. uvingililaghe uvwimike, uvwimike, ulwitiko, ulughano, ulugudo nu vuhugu.
But you, O man of God, flee these things; rather pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, gentleness.
12 ghimbagha kukum'bingilila uNguluve ndavule lutalamu ndaani, neke ukolelelaghe uvwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila, vuno ghwa ghwakemelilue pala panoghwalyitike pavolesi avinga. (aiōnios g166)
Fight the good fight of faith; take hold of the eternal life into which you were called—indeed, you confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
13 nikukulaghila pamaaso gha Nguluve juno ikufiviika fyumi ifinu fyoni, na pamaaso gha Yeesu Kilisite, juno alyajovile uvwolesi uvwa kyanghaani pamaaso gha Pontio Pilato,
In the presence of the God who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus who testified the good confession before Pontius Pilate, I charge you
14 niiti, ugadililaghe indaghilo isio muvunofu vwoni, kuhanga pano alaava ikwisa uMutwa ghwitu uYeesu Kilisite.
to keep this commandment without spot, blameless until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
15 kukwisa kwa mwene kulaava unsiki ghuno ataviike uNguluve juno ighinisivua, unya ngufu juno mwene, uNtwa ghwa vatwa vooni.
which He will manifest at the proper time—He who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and the Lord of lords;
16 ujuo ghwe juno uvufue navukam'bona, ikalile palumuli luno umuunhu nangaluvelelele. kange nakwale umuunhu juno amwaghile, nambe juno ndepoonu ikumwagha. uvwoghopua ni ngufu ali nafyo ifighono fyoni Ameni. (aiōnios g166)
who alone has immortality, residing in unapproachable light; whom no man has seen or can see; to whom be honor and eternal power. Amen. (aiōnios g166)
17 vavuule avamofu valeke kukughinia, nambe kuhuviila uvumofu vwake uvwa muiisi iji, vuno vwa nsiki n'debe. looli vamhuvilaghe uNguluve juno ikutupeela iffinu fyoni muvukoola vwake, kuuti tufivombelaghe nu lukeelo. (aiōn g165)
Command those who are rich in this present world not to be haughty, nor to rely upon the uncertainty of riches but on the living God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy; (aiōn g165)
18 kange avavuule vavombaghe inofu neke vavisaghe vamofu mumbombo inofu ndavile avange vule vamofu mufiinu. vavisaghe vapeesi nakuhangilanila na vange ikyuma kyave.
they are to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous sharers
19 kuvomba imbombo inofu isio, luli ndavule kuvuta ifiinu ifya kukutanga unsiki ghuno ghukwisa, ukuo kwe kukuvikila ulwalo ulukangafu ifighono fino fikwisa, apuo pepano valupila uvwumi uvwa kyang'haani.
—storing up for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, so that they may lay hold on the eternal life.
20 timoteo, gadililagha vunofu uvyakyang'haani vuno upelilue. ulekaghe kukujingisia mumasio ghano nagha Mutwa amasila luvumbulilo na makaning'hano agha kijasu, ghano avange viiti vwe vukagusi.
O Timothy, guard the deposit! Turn away from the godless, empty chatter and inconsistencies of what is falsely called ‘science’
21 avaanhu avange vano vasikolile isio, valulekile ulwitiko lwave. ulusungu luvisaghe palikimo numue.
—by professing it some have erred concerning the Faith. The Grace be with you. Amen.
