Timoti 1
1 une ne Poulo ne n'sung'hwa ghwa Yeesu Kilisite kulingana nululaghilo lwa Nguluve nu mpoki ghwitu nu Yeesu kilisite juno luhuviilo lwitu.
Paul, and apostle of Jesus Christ by command of God our Saviour and Jesus Christ our Hope,
2 nikukulembela uve Timoti ghwe mwanango ghwa kyang'ani muvuvangilanisi vwa lwitiko. ulusungu ni lipyana nulutengano kuhuma kwa Nguluve uNhaata na kwa Yesu kilisite uMutwa ghwitu fivisaghe numue.
to Timothy, my true son in the faith; Grace, mercy and peace from God, our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 ghukalaghe kulikaaja lya efeso, ndavule nikakusumile ye nivuka kuluta kukighavo ikya makedonia, kuti uvakanaghe avanhu vanovivulanisia mbulanisio isa vudesi.
As I begged you when I was setting out for Macedonia, stay where you are at Ephesus, and instruct certain individuals there not to be teaching heterodoxy,
4 valeke kugadilila ifipango ifisila luvumbulilo, namatavua gha fisina fya vakuulu amasila vusililo. ifio fefino fipela kukaning'ana nafikuvatanga avanhu kukumwitika uNguruve ghwa lwitiko.
nor to be paying attention to myths and interminable genealogies, which tend to promote discussions rather than a stewardship entrusted by God, a stewardship which is in faith.
5 uvufumbue vwa ndaghilo siitu kwekuti avitiki vaghananaghe nu mwojo um'balafu, ni nyivonelo inofu, nu lwitiko ulwa kyang'ani.
Now the end of the exhortation is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and an undissembled faith.
6 neke vamonga vasilekile isio, vagalwike vingiile mujova amasio amasila luvumbulilo.
Some have failed here, and have turned aside to empty argument.
7 vilonda kuuva vavulanisi va ndaghilo sa Moose, napano sino vijova nakusimilisia navasitang'hanie.
Although they desire to be teachers of the law, they understand neither the words they use nor the subjects they talk about.
8 neke tukagwile kuuti indaghilo sa Moose nofu, nave umuunhu ikusivingilila muvughane vwa Nguluve.
I know well that "the Law is good" if a man use it lawfully;
9 kange tunoghiile kukagula kuuti indaghilo nasivikilue kuvagholofu, looli kuvagalusi navano navakundi, kuvahosi navano navikufuunya kwa Nguluve, kuvalamafu navano navimike, kuvano vibuda avaviise na vang'hina, nambe vanoviduda avanhu avange.
but he must remember that the Law is not enacted for a good man, but for the lawless and rebellious, for the irreligious and sinful, for the godless and profane, for parricides and murderers,
10 kange sivikilue kuva vwafu navano vivwafuka avaghoosi navaghoosi vanine, vano vikwuvila avanhu na kukuvaghusia kuvukami, avadeis na vano vijiigha isa vudesi, palikimo nisingi sooni sino nasikwiting'ana ni mbulanisio isa kyang'ani.
for the immoral, for sexual perverts, for slave dealers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching,
11 imbulanisio isio sili muMhola inofu, jino jihusia uvuvaha vwa Nguluve, juno ighinisivua. ijio jejino nifumbatisivue nu Nguluve nipulisyaghe.
as laid down in the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which has been entrusted to me.
12 nikumhongesia uYeesu Kilisite uMutwa ghwitu juno amheliile ingufu, ulwakuva alyang'hagwile kuva m'bomba mbombo nnofu. akam'biika mumbombo jaake,
And I am thankful to Christ Jesus our Lord, who has thus enabled me, that he accounted me faithful, and appointed me to his service,
13 napano ulutasi nilyamulighile na kukumpumusia na kukuvalemasia avaanhu vaake. akasungukila ulwakuva nikavombagha isio muvujasu na muvusila lwitiko.
although I had formerly been a blasphemer and a persecutor and a doer of outrage. But I obtained mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief.
14 kange uMutwa ghwitu alyasungukiile kyango, akamheela nu lwitiko nulughano luno luli mwa Yeesu Kilisite.
And the grace of our Lord overflowed with faith and love that is in Christ Jesus.
15 ili lye lisio lya kyang'ani, lino avanhu vanoghile kukulyupila, kuuti uYeesu Kilisite alisile muiisi avapoke avahosi. muvahosi avuo, une nene muhoka makole kukila vooni.
Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that "Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners"! And there is no greater sinner than I!
16 kuuti, vwimila une ahufie ulugudo lwake lwooni. pe niive kighwani kuvano vilikumwitika na kukupila uvwumi uvwa kuvusila kisila. (aiōnios g166)
Yet for this very cause I obtained mercy, so that in me, the chief of sinners, Jesus Christ might display all his boundless patience as an illustration for those who should later believe in him, and so gain life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
17 liino uvwoghopua nu vuvaha vuli nu mwene ifighono fyoni, uNtwa un'sila kusila juno uvufue navukumwagha, kange naivoneka, uNguluve ghwe jujuo mwene Ameni. (aiōn g165)
Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be glory and honor forever and ever. Amen! (aiōn g165)
18 mwnango Timoti, ululaghilo uluo luno nikukupeela, luling'iine na masio amalongosi agha vuvili ghano ghalyajovilue vwimila uve.
This charge then, I am laying upon you, Timothy, my son, according to the predictions formerly made concerning you. Fight the good fight in the spirit of these predictions,
19 amasio aghuo ghakutangaghe kuvomba imbombo ja Nguluve nambe luve lutalamu ndaani, ndaule umulwalilugu unnono vule itenga ililugu nambe liive litalamu ndaani. ugadililaghe ulwitiko na kuuva ni nyivonelo inofu.
keeping fast hold of faith and a good conscience; which certain individuals have cast aside, and so made shipwreck of their faith.
20 avanhu avange navivikila mwojo kuvomba sino vasitang'inie kuuti sa kyangani, uluo lukuvapelela kuvuhiila kukumwitika uNguluve. Muvanhu avuo mwale uHimenaayo nu Alekisanda. avuo nimulekile usetano kuuti vamanyile, valekaghe kukum'benapula uNguluve.
Among them are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have given over to Satan, so that they may be taught not to blaspheme.
