1 Thessalonians 4
1 Finally then, brothers, we beg and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, that you abound more and more.
Ti kpiiba ti majuodikaama tie mine, ti miadi yi ki go tundi yio DIEDO JESU nni: ti den bangi yi yi tagi n baa tie maamaki ya mani u TIENU po, yi tuodi ki tieni yeni, yin ya go tiendi yeni ki pugidi-pugidi.
2 For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus.
Yi bani tin den ga a ya ǹoabona o DIEDO JESU kani ti teni. yi
3 For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality,
U TIENU n bua yaala tie yi gagidiŋanma, ke yin kubi yi yula ki da tieni joagindi ba kuli.
4 that each one of you know how to control his own body in sanctification and honor,
O go bua ke yi siiga yua kuli n kubi o gbannandi mi gagidiŋanma nni leni ya yema n dagidi nni.
5 not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who don’t know God,
Ki da tuo o gbannandi bonbuakaala n diedi o nani bi nilanba yaaba n kaa bani u TIENU n tiendi maama.
6 that no one should take advantage of and wrong a brother or sister in this matter; because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we forewarned you and testified.
oba kuli n da boandi o kpiilo laa bonla nni ki janbi o tin den tuodi ki waani yi ki go kadi ki waani yi ke o DIEDO ba tuu laa biadima buolu kuli li panpaani.
7 For God called us not for uncleanness, but in sanctification.
U TIENU naa den yini ti ke tin ya kubi ti joagindi ka, ama mi gagidiŋanma po.
8 Therefore he who rejects this doesn’t reject man, but God, who has also given his Holy Spirit to you.
Lanwani yua n yie laa tundi kuli, waa yie nisaalo ka, ama o yie u TIENU yua n puuni yi o fuoma yo.
9 But concerning brotherly love, you have no need that one write to you. For you yourselves are taught by God to love one another,
Laa go yie tiladi min diani yipo ki waani yi yin ya bua yiyaba, kelima u TIENU wani oba n bangi yi ke yin ya bua yiyaba.
10 for indeed you do it toward all the brothers who are in all Macedonia. But we exhort you, brothers, that you abound more and more;
Yi tiendi yeni mo yo yi kpiiba yaaba n ye Maseduani kuli po. Ama ti go tundi yi ke yin ya tiendi yeni ki pugidi.
11 and that you make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, even as we instructed you,
Yin moandi mani ki ya mani leni yi yaba, ki go ya kubi yi ŋantaadiceli, ki ya tuuni li tuonli ki baadi yaala n dagidi yi yema po mo nani tin den kpa bangi yi maama yeni.
12 that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.
Yin ya tiendi yeni ke yaaba n kaa daani n ya nua yi ke yi tie nimoanba ki jigindi yi, ke yin da dugi nitoaba todima po.
13 But we don’t want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep, so that you don’t grieve like the rest, who have no hope.
Ti kpiiba, tii bua ke lan ya boani yi yaaba n kpe ya maama po, ke yin da ye leni lipaboanli bi po nani yaaba n kaa pia suginma ba yeni.
14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus.
Li ya tie ke ti daani ke JESU den kpe ki go fii bi tinkpiba siiga, ti go daani ke u TIENU ba fiini yaaba n daani JESU ki kpe kuli ki teni ban taani leni o.
15 For this we tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep.
Ti kadi li waani line nani o DIEDO n den yedi ti yaala: tinba yaaba n ye ki fo kan gaa yaaba n den kpe liiga o DIEDO guani cuama.
16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with God’s trumpet. The dead in Christ will rise first,
Wani o DIEDO maalima ya tieni ke malekinba yudaano kpaani, ke u TIENU kakaaci piebi, lanyogunu o DIEDO wani oba baa ǹa ŋali tanpolipo ki jiidi, yaaba n den leni li dandanli KILISITI po baa kpa fii bi tinkpiba siiga.
17 then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.
Lani tinba yaaba n sini ki fo baa taani leni bani, ki yugi a tawala nni ki tuogi o DIEDO mi fawaama nni. Lani ti ba yaa ye leni o DIEDO ŋali ya yogunu kuli.
18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.
Lanwani, yin ya baagidi mani yiyaba pala leni laa maama.
