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.
Kwa nneyo, ashaalongo ajangunji, ngunakunshondelesheyanga kwa ligongo lya shiya sha a Nnungu, ntamangananje mbuti mbepei ya a Nnungu, ikwete ukonjelo na ikwaanonyela a Nnungu, kweneko ni kutindibhalila kwenunji kukwete mana.
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)
Wala nnakagulilanje ikubho ya pashilambolyo, ikabhe ntendebhuywanje ndumbililo yenunji ibhe ya ambi, nkupinga mmanyanje ukoto indu ibhapinga a Nnungu, indu ya mmbone ya kwaanonyeya na ya kamilika. (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.
Kwa nema jimbegwilwe na a Nnungu, ngunakummalanjilanga mmowe kuti, anapagwe mundu akwiiganishiya nkulungwa kupunda shaapinjikwa, ikabhe akole ng'aniyo ya kweli ilundana na shipimilo sha ngulupai kila mundu shapegwilwe na a Nnungu.
4 For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members don’t have the same function,
Pabha, malinga nshiilu ishipagwa ibhalo yaigwinji, na yowe ikatenda liengo limo,
5 so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another,
nneyo peyo na uwe nkali tuli tubhabhagwinji, tushibha shiilu shimo nkulundana na a Kilishitu na shibhalo sha kila mundu shishilundana na shibhalo shika nnjakwe.
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;
Bhai, tushipegwa kila mundu na shipaji shakwe kwa nema. Apegwilwe shipaji sha londola, alondole malinga shijili ngulupai jakwe.
7 or service, let’s give ourselves to service; or he who teaches, to his teaching;
Apegwilwe shipaji sha utumishi, atumishe. Apegwilwe kujiganya, 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.
Apegwilwe kutaga ntima ataje ntima. Apegwilwe ntuka alaguye kwa ntima gowe. Nkulongoya na alongoye ukoto. Na akwete shipaji sha bhonela shiya, atende nneyo kwa angalala.
9 Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.
Kupingana kunabhe na ugulumba. Muishimanje yangali ya mmbone, nkamulilanje ya mmbone.
10 In love of the brothers be tenderly affectionate to one another; in honor prefer one another,
Nng'ishimiyananje mwaashayenenji malinga bha ulongo shibhakuti ishimiyana.
11 not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord,
Ntumbilanje, nnakolanje ukata mmitima jenunji, nkwaatendela liengo Bhakulungwa.
12 rejoicing in hope, enduring in troubles, continuing steadfastly in prayer,
Nng'angalalanje nnikulupalilanga, na nshilaje mwiipilililanje, na nnilonjeyanga nkujuga Nnungu.
13 contributing to the needs of the saints, and given to hospitality.
Mwaajangutilanje bhandunji bha ukonjelo bhalinginji nshilaje. Nnikwaposhelanga bhajeninji kwa ntuka.
14 Bless those who persecute you; bless, and don’t curse.
Mwaajujilanje mboka kwa a Nnungu bhowe bhakunshimanga, mwaajujilanje mboka na wala nnaaloshanje.
15 Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep.
Nng'angalalanje pamo na bhaangalalanga, na nngutanje pamo na bhaagutanga.
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.
Ntamangane pamo kwa ulele. Nnaipunanje, ikabheje mwaapinganje nkali bhandu bha nyegala. Nnaipunilanje lunda lwenunji.
17 Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honorable in the sight of all men.
Nnampindikulilanje mundu yangali ya mmbone kwa ligongo lya yangali ya mmbone yantendilenje. Ntendaanje ya mmbone ku bhandu bhowe.
18 If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.
Kila puikomboleka, ntamangananje kwa ulele na bhandunji bhowe.
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.”
Ashaalongo ajangu, nnapindikulilanje, ikabheje nnekanje bhajipatanje nnjimwa ja a Nnungu, pabha Mmajandiko ga Ukonjelo, Bhakulungwa bhakuti, “Kupindikulila ni kwangu nne, nne shimbindikulile.”
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.”
Punda penepo Majandiko gakuti, “Mpwai nnjenu akolaga shibhanga, mumpe shalya, na akolaga nnjota, mumpe mashi, pabha punkutenda nneyo nnakumpalila makala ga moto pa ntwe gwakwe.”
21 Don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
Yangali ya mmbone inankombole, ikabheje mwiikombole kwa tenda ya mmbone.
