2 Tunakwaatendela eja a Nnungu mobha gowe, kwa ligongo lyenunji mmowe na kunkumbushilanga kila putukwaajuga a Nnungu.
Gratia vobis, et pax. Gratias agimus Deo semper pro omnibus vobis, memoriam vestri facientes in orationibus nostris sine intermissione,

memores operis fidei vestræ, et laboris, et charitatis, et sustinentiæ spei Domini nostri Iesu Christi, ante Deum et Patrem nostrum:
4 Ashaalongo, tumumanyi kuti a Nnungu bhanakumpinganga na bhashikunng'agulanga mmanganje bhandu bhabho,
scientes fratres, dilecti a Deo, electionem vestram:
5 pabha putwannungushiyenje Ngani ja Mmbone jila nngabha kwa malobhepe, ikabhe kwa mashili na kwa Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo, tulikumumanya kuti ntengago ni gwa kweli. Mmumanyinji shitwaashite tama na mmanganyanji, nkupinga mpwaikanje.
quia Evangelium nostrum non fuit ad vos in sermone tantum, sed et in virtute, et in Spiritu sancto, et in plenitudine multa, sicut scitis quales fuerimus in vobis propter vos.
6 Mmanganya mwashinkukaguyanga itwatendaga uwe na ibhatendaga Bhakulungwa. Nkali mwapotekwenje kwa kaje, mwashinkuuposhelanga ntenga kwa angalala kukopoka kuka Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo.
Et vos imitatores nostri facti estis, et Domini, excipientes verbum in tribulatione multa, cum gaudio Spiritus sancti:
7 Kwa nneyo mmanganya nshibhanganga shilangulo sha kagulwa na bhandunji bhowe, bhaakulupalilanga bha ku Makedonia na bha ku Akaya.
ita ut facti sitis forma omnibus credentibus in Macedonia, et in Achaia.
8 Pabha, koposhela kwenu mmanganyanji, ntenga gwa Bhakulungwa ushumile, nngabha ku Makedonia na ku Akayape, ikabhe ngulupai jenunji kwa a Nnungu jishishuma mmbali yowe. Numbe twangali sha bheleketa kabhili.
A vobis enim diffamatus est sermo Domini, non solum in Macedonia, et in Achaia, sed et in omni loco fides vestra, quæ est ad Deum, profecta est, ita ut non sit nobis necesse quidquam loqui.
9 Pabha ashaayenenji bhanatalashiyanga ga mwanja gwetu kunngwenunji, shimwatuposhelenje na shimwashite kuilekanga yanamu, nikwaatendebhushila a Nnungu bhali na gumi na bha kweli,
Ipsi enim de nobis annunciant qualem introitum habuerimus ad vos: et quomodo conversi estis ad Deum a simulacris, servire Deo vivo, et vero,
10 nikwaalinda Bhanabhabho kopoka kunnungu, yani a Yeshu. Bhayushiywe na a Nnungu, bhakututapula na nnjimwa jikwiya ja a Nnungu.
et expectare Filium eius de cælis (quem suscitavit a mortuis) Iesum, qui eripuit nos ab ira ventura.
