1 Utasalonika 2
1 Anun atimine yiru linuana na tiwa diranimon suari, tidaa kitimine ba.
For you yourselves know, brothers, our visit to you was not in vain,
2 Arike wa neou ti so non nchin in Philippi, nafo na iyiru arik wa yinin nin Kutelle bit tibelin minu kadura kamang Kutelle nyan salin mmang.
but having suffered before and been shamefully treated, as you know, at Philippi, we grew bold in our God to tell you the gospel of God in much conflict.
3 Bara akara bite na uta nuari ba, na ndino gnari ba na kinu ari ba.
For our exhortation is not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in deception.
4 Arik nao na Kutelle yinna nin gnirik nin kadura ka mang na nenere ti din belu, na bara anit ba, bara Kutelle, naadin yenju nibinai yenju ni binai bite.
But even as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak; not as pleasing people, but God, who tests our hearts.
5 Bara na tina belu agbulang kinu ba, nafo naiyiru, na bara ti bolu imon na amon ba, Ci Kutelle ari unan ba.
For neither were we at any time found using words of flattery, as you know, nor with a pretext for greed (God is witness),
6 Na tiwa piziru uzazunu kiti nanit ba sa kitimine, sa kiti na mong kubu kona tiwa yichu atibite anan kataah Kristi.
nor seeking glory from people (neither from you nor from others), when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Messiah.
7 Nnane tiwa toltin atibite nafo na una asa anodizino nibinain nono me.
But we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother cherishes her own children.
8 Nani tiwa dursuzominu usuu, nin liburi liboo tiniminu kadura ka manggne umunu tilau bite, bara na ina so imon ichne kitibite.
Even so, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because you had become very dear to us.
9 Bara na ina lizinn linwana kataah nin neiu bite. Tiwa su kataah kitik ninliyarin bara tiwa so kutura udu umon min, nafo na tiwa sun minu uwa azi mang kadura Kutelle.
For you remember, brothers, our labor and travail; for working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, we preached to you the gospel of God.
10 Anung anan ba, a Kutelle wan, nafo nyan lau nin salindinno tiwa su kataah udu kitimine na yinin.
You are witnesses with God, how holy, righteously, and blamelessly we behaved ourselves toward you who believe.
11 Nafo na iyiru uchif nin nono me, tiwa niminu akara tinin kuru tibelle.
As you know, as a father with his own children,
12 Iba chinu liau Kutelle, na adin yichu minu udu kilari nin zazinu me.
we exhorted, comforted, and implored every one of you to lead a life worthy of God, who calls you into his own Kingdom and glory.
13 Bara nene tidin godu Kutelle kokishi, kubi kooh na iwa seru kitibite ligbulang kadura, ligbulang Kutelle, na iwa serunafo ligbulang nntari ba, kidene, ligbulang Kutelle, na lidi kataah nya mine na iyinna.
For this cause we also thank God without ceasing, that, when you received from us the word of the message of God, you accepted it not as a human word, but, as it is in truth, the word of God, which also works in you who believe.
14 Bara anung linwana ina so nafo anan na tii alau Kutelle na adi Yahudiya nyan Kristi Yesu bara anun ina neou na nit mine nafo na inun wa neou na charannono Israila.
For you, brothers, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Judea in Messiah Jesus; for you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, even as they did from the Judeans;
15 Alengena iwa molu chilari yesu ku nin nanan kadura me-eh, inin ko-oh nari, tutung alengena ipooh Kutelle liburi ba. Idinin liburi lisirneudu na nit vat.
who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out, and did not please God, and are hostile to all people;
16 Ina wantin nari tibelin anan nyan nsirti bara inan se utuchu Yesu nyan tazunu mine. Tinna nayi Kutelle ntolo nari udu ligang.
forbidding us to speak to those who are not Jewish that they may be saved; to fill up their sins always. But wrath has come on them to the uttermost.
17 Arik, linwana w kosu nri nya kubiri ku bene, nyan yenju nya nibinai tiwa tezunu tiyene timuro mine.
But we, brothers, being bereaved of you for a short season, in presence, not in heart, tried even harder to see your face with great desire,
18 Bara iwa dinin suu ti dak kitimine, meng Shawulu ndin ntenzunu, shaitan amini wantin nari.
because we wanted to come to you—indeed, I, Paul, once and again—but Satan hindered us.
19 Bara iyangari likara mine nbun saliburi lio-oh. Sa likarin zazunu imong irumere nafo na among-ubung. Nchikilari Yesu asa ba se-eh
For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Is it not even you, before our Lord Jesus at his coming?
20 Anun ghereh uzazunu nin mang bit.
For you are our glory and our joy.
