varumi 15

1 lino twevano tuli ni ngufu tunoghile kukuvutola uvuvote vote vwa vano vavote vote, neke natunoghile kujivelelesia jusue.

We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

2 umuunhu ghweni mu lyusue amughanaghe un'jake ulwakuva lwe lunono ku vufumbue vwa kukunkangasia.

Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification.

3 ulwakuva naju Kilisite nakajiloghelisie jujuo neke pepano jilyale ndavule jilembilue kuuti, “amaligho gha vala vano vakakulighile ghanyaghile une”.

For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.

4 ku kyokyoni kino kilongwile kulembua, kilyalembilue kwa kutuvulanisia ku gila kuuti kukilila ulugudo na kukilila kukangasivua amoojo na malembe twale tuuva nu lukangasio.

For whatever things were written in former times were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

5 lino uNguluve ghwa lugudo nu lwa kukangasia amoojo avapele kuva nu vufumbue vwe vumo kwa muunhu ghweni kuling'ana nu Yesu Kilisite

Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus:

6 awesie kuvomba ndiki kuvufumbue vumo muwesie kukumughinia mu njovele jino uNguluve nu Nhaata ghwa mwana ghwitu uYesu Kilisite.

That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

7 pe lino mumwupilaghe ghweni ndavule vule uKilisite alyavupile umue ku vwimike vwa Nguluve.

Therefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.

8 ulwakuva nijova kuuti uKilisite avombilue kuva m'bombi ghwa kudumula igola ija m'bili ghwa kidimi kukwimila ilweki ja Nguluve. alyavombile ndiki kuuti ndeponu kuvonesia ulufingo luno lulyahumisivie ku vaNhaata,

Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made to the fathers:

9 nava pa iisi kukumpaala uNguluve. ku vumosi vwake. ndavule vule jilembiluekuuti, “pe lino nihumia ulughinio kulyuve ku iisi simonga na kukwimba ulughinio kulitavua lyako.

And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing to thy name.

10 kange jiti, “kange hovokagha, umue mwe vaanhu va iisi, palikimo na vafue vake”.

And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.

11 kange, “mumughiniaghe uMutwa, mwe vanya iisi mweni; neka avaanhu ava iisi voni vamughiniaghe umwene”.

And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye people.

12 kange uYesayi akati, “kuliiva nu mhela ghwa Yese nu junge juno ilikwima kutema ku iisi sooni. avapanji viiva nuluhuvilo mwa mwene.

And again, Isaiah saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust.

13 lino uNguluve ghwa luhuvilo avamemesiaghe ulukelo lwoni nu lutengano lwa kwitika, neke kuuti ndeponu mughine ku luhuvilo ku ngufu sa Mhepo uMwimike.

Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Spirit.

14 vanyalukolo vango munidenginie, munidenginie kuuti najumue mumemilue uvugholofu, mdumemilue nu luhala lwoni. nidengilue kuuti, numue ndeponu mukangasianagha mweni.

And I myself also am persuaded concerning you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.

15 neke nikuvalembela kulukangasio kyongo mu simonga neke kukuvakumbusia kange, ulwakuva ikipeelua kino mupelilue nu Nguluve.

Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly to you in some sort, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me from God,

16 ikipeelua iki kilyale kuuti ndeponu nive m'bombi ghwa Yesu kilisite juno alyasung'ilue mu iisi, kujihumia hwene ntemi ghwa livangili lya nguluve. nale niwesia kuvomba ndiki neke kujihumia kwango ku iisi kuve kwitikilue, kuvikilue patali nu Nguluve ku sila ja Mhepo uMwimike.

That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

17 pe ulukelo lwango luli mwa Kilisite yesu na mumbombo sa Nguluve.

I have therefore cause for glorying through Jesus Christ in those things which pertain to God.

18 ulwakuva ndeponu naningaghele kujova lyolyoni looli kuuti uKilisite avombile kukilila kulyune uvwitiki vwa iisi. agha ghavombike ku masio na maghendele.

For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed,

19 ku ngufu sa fivalilo na gha kukwoghofia kwa ngufu sa Mhepo uMwimike. iji jilwale kuuti kuhuma ku Yelusalemu, na kusyutila kutali ndavule ku Ililiko, ndeponu kukujitola kunji ilivangili lwa Kilisite kuvunyilifu.

Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and all around to Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.

20 ku sila iji, uvufumbue vwango vwale kupulisia ilivangili, neke na pepala pano uKilisite ikagulika ku litavua neke kuuti nikunuaghe kujenga uvwalo kwa muunhu ujunge.

And, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man’s foundation:

21 ndavule jilembilue kuuti, “vano kwa mwene vasila mhola sake angise mukumwagha, na vala vano navakampulike vilikunkagula”.

But as it is written, They shall see to whom he was not spoken of: and they that have not heard shall understand.

22 pe lino nikasighilue ke kinga kukwisa kulyumue,

For which cause also I have been much hindered from coming to you.

23 neke lino nilinsila lubale lwolwoni mufighavo iifi kange nanogheluagha ku maka minga kukwisa kulyumue.

But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come to you;

24 lini jaatu ningakile pano niluta ku Hisipania nihuvila kuvavona. na kuwesia kutwalua ku sila jango palikimo numue, pe baho kyale nihovwike kuvomba lumo numue ku nsiki.

Whenever I take my journey into Spain, I will come to you: for I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way there by you, if first I shall be somewhat filled with your company.

25 neke lino niluta ku Yelusalemu kukuvavombela avitiki avange.

But now I go to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.

26 ulwakuva lulyavanoghile avaanhu va kuMakedinia na ku Akaya kusangula isongo sino sinoghile ku avakotofu vamonga mu vitiki ku Yelusalemu.

For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor of the saints who are at Jerusalem.

27 Ena, jilyale kulughano lwave, kange na ku kyang'haani valyale vasighilua vaave. lwakuva nave avapa iisi vahangilanile mu mbombo save isa mu mwoojo, voope kange visighilua kukuvavombela inofu ku vufumbue vwitu,

It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister to them in carnal things.

28 pe lino unsiki ghuno nivombile ndiki na kuva nulu kwilano lwa mheke iji kuveene, pe niluta mu sila palikimo numue ku Hisipania.

When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go by you into Spain.

29 nikagula kuuti unsiki nikwisa kulyumue nikwisa ku vunywilifu vwa lufunyo lwa Kilisite.

And I am sure that, when I come to you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.

30 lino nikuvasuuma vanyalukolo kwa Mutwa ghwitu uYesu Kilisite na kulughano lwa Mhepo, kuuti muvombaghe palikimo nune mu nyifunyilo siinu ka Nguluve vwimila jango.

Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ’s sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;

31 munisumilaghe kuuti ndeponu nipokua kuhuma kuva Yudea vano naviti. na kuuti imbombele jango ku Yelusalemu ndeponu jupiluaghe na vitiki.

That I may be delivered from them in Judaea who do not believe; and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints;

32 musuumilaghe kuuti ndeponu nikwisa kulyumue ku lukelo kukilila ulughano lwa Nguluve na kuuva ndeponu nipuma palikimo numue.

That I may come to you with joy by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed.

33 nu Nguluve ghwa lutengano avisaghe palikimo numue mweni. Ameni

Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
