1 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ according to the commandment of God our Savior and the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,
Paulo, n'tume ghwa Kristu Yesu, kulengana ni amri jha Bwana K'yara ni mwokozi ghwa jhotu Yesu Kristu jhaajhele bhujasiri bhwitu,
2 to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
kwa Timotheo mwanabhangu ghwa kweli mu imani: Neema, rehema ni amani syasihomela kwa K'yara Dadi ni Kristu Bwana bhitu.
3 As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain men not to teach a different doctrine,
Kama kyanisiili bho nibhokili kulota Makedonia, usialaghe Efeso ili kwamba ubhwesiajhi kubhaamuru bhanu fulani bhasifundisi mafundisu tofauti.
4 and not to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than God’s stewardship, which is in faith.
Kabhele bhasipelekesi fijegu ni orodha sya nasaba syasibelikujha ni mwishu. Agha ghisababisya mabishanu nesu kuliko kubhasaidila kujhendelesya mpango bhwa K'yara bhwa imani.
5 But the goal of this command is love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith,
Basi lilengo lya lilaghisu e'le ndo bhupendo bhwabhwihoma mu muoyo bhunofu, mu dhamiri jhinofu ni mu imani jha bhukweli.
6 from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned away to vain talking,
Baadhi jha bhanu bhalidulili lilengo bhakaghaleka mafundisu agha ni kusanukila malongesi gha kipumbafu.
7 desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say nor about what they strongly affirm.
Bhilonda kujha bhalimu bha sheria, lakini bhamanyilepi kyabhijobha au kyabhisisitisya.
8 But we know that the law is good if a person uses it lawfully,
lakini tumanyili kujha sheria ndo jhinofu kama munu akajhitumila kwa usahihi.
9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
Tumanyili kujha, sheria jhatongibhulepi kwandabha jha munu mwenye haki, bali kwandabha jha bhavunja sheria ni bhaasi, bhanu bhabhabelikujha bhatauwa ni bhenye dhambi ni bhabhabelili kujha ni K'yara ni bhaovu. Jhitongibhu kwandabha jha bhabhikoma Dadi ni bhanyinabhabhi,
10 for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine,
kwa ndabha jha bhauaji, kwandabha jha bhaasherati, kwa ndabha jha bhanu bhazinzi, kwandabha jha bhanu bhabhiteka bhanu ni kubhabheka bhatumwa kwandabha jha bhadesi, kwandabh jha mashahidi bha bhudesi, ni jhejhioha jha ajhele kinyume ni majhelekesu gha bhuaminifu.
11 according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
Majhelekesu agha ghihomela ni injili jhajhijhele ni bhutukufu bhwa K'yara jha abarikibhu ambajho kwa bhene niaminibhu.
12 I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service,
Nikambombesya Yesu Kristu Bwana ghwitu. Anipelili ng'hofu, kwa kujha anibhalangili nene kujha mwaminifu, na anibhekili mu huduma.
13 although I used to be a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
Najhele munu ghwa kukufuru, n'tesaji ni munu ghwa ngondo. Lakini nakabhili rehema kwandabha nabhombili kwa ujinga kwa kutokukiera.
14 The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
Lakini neema jha K'yara ghwitu jhimemili imani ni bhupendo bhwabhujhele mwa Kristu Yesu.
15 The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.
Bhujumbe obho ndo bhwakuaminika na bhwilondeka kupokelibhwa ni bhoha jha kujha Kristu Yesu ahidili pa duniani kuokola bhenye dhambi. Nene nembimbi kuliko bhoha.
16 However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Jesus Christ might display all his patience for an example of those who were going to believe in him for eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Lakini kwa ndabha ejhe nene napelibhu rehema ili kwamba mugati mwa nene kwanza, Kristu Yesu adhihirishiajhi bhuvumilivu bhuoha. Abhombili naha kama kielelesu kwa bhoha bhabhibetakun'tumaini muene kwa ndabha jha bhusima bhwa milele. (aiōnios g166)
17 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Na henu kwa mfalme jha abelikujha ni mwisu, jhaifwalepi, jhaibelakubhoneka, K'yara muene ijhelayi heshima ni bhutukufu milele ni milele. Amina. (aiōn g165)
18 I commit this instruction to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which were given to you before, that by them you may wage the good warfare,
Nikalibheka lilaghisu e'le palongolo pa Timotheo, mwana bhangu. Nibhomba naha kulengana ni bhunabii bhwabhwapisibhu hoti kuhusu bhebh'e, ili kwamba uhusikayi mu ngondo jhinofu.
19 holding faith and a good conscience, which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith,
Khetayi naha ili kwamba ujhelayi ni imani ni dhamiri jhinofu. Baadhi jha bhanu bhaghabelili agha bhakajhangamisya imani.
20 of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
Kama fela Himeneyo ni Alekizanda ambabho nimpelili lisyetani ili bhamanyisibhwayi bhasikufuru.
