1 Utasalonika 4

1 Ukutulne, linwana, ti din niminu akara nya Chikilari Yesu, nafo na ina seru uliru kiti bite, ukifo isu uchin nin pozu Kutelleh abiri nafo idin chinu, dirtinong isu gbardang.

Finally, brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Jesus that, just as you learned from us how you ought to walk and to please God, you do so more and more.

2 Bara nyiru tiliru to na tina niminu nya Chilari Yesu.

For you know the commands we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus.

3 Ulelere usu Kutelle nlau mine ichin akmulet ndinon,

It is God's will that you be sanctified, that you abstain from fornication,

4 bara vat mine iyinin usen wani nyan lau nin zazinu.

and that each of you know how to control your own body in holiness and honor,

5 Na nya su kibinai ndinon ba (nafo anan nyan nsirti alenge na iyiru Kutelleh ba).

not in lustful passion like the Gentiles who do not know God.

6 Tutung umon wa patilin anin nanza gbane liburi nilemone ba, bara Chikilari unan tunju nile imonere vat, nafo natina min wunu minu atuf tinin kuru belle.

In this matter no one should wrong or take advantage of his brother, because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as we told you before and solemnly warned you.

7 Na Kutelle na yichila nari udu nyan dino gnari ba, udu nlau war.

For God did not call us to be impure, but to live in holiness.

8 Bara nene ulengena ari ilelena anit ari anari ba, Kutelleh ari ulenge na adin nizu Ufunu Ulau udu kitimine.

Therefore whoever rejects this command does not reject man but God, who has given his Holy Spirit to you.

9 Ubelen nsu linwana, na umon ba yertinu minu imon ba, bara anun atimine Kutelleh na dursuzo minu usu linwana.

Now concerning brotherly love, you have no need for anyone to write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another.

10 Nyan na dadu, anun udu linwana alenge na idi vat Makaduniya, arik din niminu akara linwana, nworu is gbardng.

And indeed you do love all the brothers throughout Macedonia. But we urge you, brothers, to do so more and more.

11 Ti din niminu akara tutung itenizin nya kutik, lmin upiziru nimon yi, inin su kataah nin na chara mine, nafo na tiwa kpada minu

We urge you to aspire to lead a quiet life, to attend to your own affairs, and to work with your own hands, just as we commanded you,

12 Sun nene bara inan china dert udu alenge naidi ndas kidegene, baratutung iwa dira imon.

so that you may walk properly toward outsiders and not be in need of anything.

13 Na tidii suu itan uyinu nari ba, linuana mbelen na lenge na idinnmmoro, yenju iwa so nin na buri asirne nafo alengena na isali nin kidegen bun ba.

But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who have fallen asleep, so that you may not be grieved like others who do not have hope.

14 Asa ti yinna Yesu wa ku afita tutung, nanere Kutelleh ba dak nin Yesu nin na lenge na ina dieu nya mmoro nin gne.

For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, we also believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.

15 Bara nene ti belin minuu nya ligbulang Chikilari, nworu arik ale na ti di a chine, na i chino nari udu kubi dak Chikilari, kidegen na tiba yarnu na ina dieu nyan nmoro bara.

According to the word of the Lord, we declare to you that we who are alive, who are left behind until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep.

16 Kutelle litime ba tolu unuzu kitene kani. Nin teit, nin liwui ngo nnono Kutelle, nin kulantung Kutelle, alenge na ina iku nya Kristi ba fita nfunu.

For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.

17 Arik alenge na tidi a chine, na ichino nari, ligozine iba fieu ghantunu nari nya na wut tizuro nin Cikilari nyan funu. Na nere tiba so ligowe nin Cikilari.

Then we who are alive, who are left behind, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will always be with the Lord.

18 Bara nene, tan linuana akara nin nagbulan alole.

Therefore encourage one another with these words.
