Romans 12
1 Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.
Kwayele, achalongo achinjangu, pakuŵa Akunnungu annosisye chanasa chao, ngunchondelela ntyosye iilu yenu mpela mbopesi jejumi ni jeswela ni jajikwanonyelesya Akunnungu. Lyele lili litala lya usyene lya kwapopelela Akunnungu.
2 Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God. (aiōn g165)
Nkansyasya indu ya pachilambo pano nambo Akunnungu ajigalausye miningwa jenu kuti mmanyilile unonyelo wa Akunnungu. Nipele chinkombole kulimanyilila lisosa lya Akunnungu lyalili lyambone ni yakuti pakusaka ŵanyamwe mme. (aiōn g165)
3 For I say through the grace that was given me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of yourself more highly than you ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.
Pakuŵa kwa umbone waambele Akunnungu, ngunsalila ŵanyamwe wose, mundu akasaliganichisya kuti ali jwankulu kupunda yaikuti kwaŵajila. Nambo mmeje ŵa lunda pankuganisya, ni kulilamula mwachinsye malinga ni chikulupi chimpegwile ni Akunnungu.
4 For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members don’t have the same function,
Mu chiilu chimo mwana iŵalo yejinji, ni kila chiŵalo chikupanganya masengo gakwe.
5 so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another,
Uweji ŵatuli ŵajinji tuli chiilu chimo mu kulumbikana ni Kilisito, noweji wose tulumbikenywe jumo kwa jwine nti iŵalo ya kupisyangana ya pachiilu.
6 having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us: if prophecy, let’s prophesy according to the proportion of our faith;
Nipele, pakuŵa tuli ni mitulilo jakupisyangana, malinga ni ntuuka watupele Akunnungu. Jwapegwilwe ntulilo wa kuŵecheta utenga kutyochela kwa Akunnungu, aŵechete malinga ni chikulupi chakwe.
7 or service, let’s give ourselves to service; or he who teaches, to his teaching;
Iŵaga mundu apegwilwe ntulilo wa kutumichila, nneche atumichile. Jwapegwilwe ntulilo wa kwiganya, nneche ajiganye.
8 or he who exhorts, to his exhorting; he who gives, let him do it with generosity; he who rules, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
Jwapegwilwe ntulilo wa kutusya ntima, atendeje yeleyo. Ni jwapegwilwe ntulilo wa kutyosya kwa ŵane, atyosye kwa lulele. Jwakwimilila, ajimilile kwa kuchalila ni jwa chanasa, atendekanye yeleyo kwa kusangalala.
9 Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.
Unonyelo wenu uŵe wangali ulamba. Nchichime changalumbana chilichose, mnyambatilane ni yambone.
10 In love of the brothers be tenderly affectionate to one another; in honor prefer one another,
Nnonyelane jwine ni jwine mpela achalongo ni kuchimbichisyana jwine ni jwine.
11 not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord,
Npanganye masengo kwa kuchalila, nkaŵa ŵa ulesi. Mwatumichile Ambuje, kwa ntima wenu wose.
12 rejoicing in hope, enduring in troubles, continuing steadfastly in prayer,
Nsengwanje nli ni chilolelo. Mpililile mu kulagaswa, ni kupopela katema kose.
13 contributing to the needs of the saints, and given to hospitality.
Mwakamuchisye ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu mu yaikwasoŵa yao ni kwapochela achalendo kwa unonyelo.
14 Bless those who persecute you; bless, and don’t curse.
Mwape upile ŵakunnagasya, mwape upile ngasimwalwesya.
15 Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep.
Nsengwanje pamo ni ŵakusengwa, nlile pamo ni ŵakulila.
16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Don’t set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Don’t be wise in your own conceits.
Ntame yambone jwine ni jwine. Kasinlifuna nambo nkunde kutama kwa kulitulusya. Kasinliganichisya kuti nkwete lunda nnope.
17 Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honorable in the sight of all men.
Ngasimwauchisya yangalumbana mundu jwampanganyichisye yangalumbana. Mpanganye yambone kwa ŵandu wose.
18 If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.
Yaikuti pakukomboleka kukwenu nchalile kutama mu chitendewele ni ŵandu wose.
19 Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.”
Achalongo achinjangu, kasimmuchisyana yangalumbana jwine ni jwine, nambo mwalechele Akunnungu atende chindu cho kwa lutumbilo lwakwe, pakuŵa ilembekwe mu Malembelo ga Akunnungu, Ambuje akuti, “Kuuchisya chisasi kuli kukwangu, uneji chimuchisye.”
20 Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head.”
Mpela Malembo ga Akunnungu yagakuti, “Jwammagongo jwenu jakolaga sala mwape chakulya ni jankamulaga njota mwape meesi ang'weje. Pakuŵa kwakutenda yeleyo chimwatende akole soni jajikulungwa nti mwaŵichile makala ga mooto pantwe pakwe.”
21 Don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
Nkakunda ungalumbana umpunde, nambo nkaupunde ungalumbana kwa kuitendekanya yambone.
