Ŵaloma 15
1 Uweji ŵatuli ni chikulupi chakulimbangana tukuŵajilwa kwakamusya ŵaali ni chikulupi chakulepetala, ngaŵa kutenda indu yakulinonyelesya twachinsyene pe.
Now we that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
2 Mundu jwalijose pasikati jetu akusachilwa annonyelesye njakwe, kwa kwapanganyichisya yambone kuti anlimbisye mu chikulupi.
Let each one of us please his neighbour for that which is good, unto edifying.
3 Pakuŵa, namose Kilisito nganalinonyelesya nsyene, nambo mpela Malembelo ga Akunnungu yagakuti kusala, “Kutukana kose kuŵantukene mmwe, kumujilile une.”
For Christ also pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell upon me.
4 Pakuŵa yose iyalembekwe kalakala mu Malembelo ga Akunnungu, yalembekwe kuti itujiganye uwe, kuti kwa upililiu ni kutuswa ntima kwatupatile ni malembelo go, tukole chilolelo.
For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that through patience and through comfort of the scriptures we might have hope.
5 Akunnungu ŵakwapa ŵandu machili gakupililila ni kutulasika antende nkole nningwa umo, nchikuyaga chitagu cha Kilisito Yesu.
Now the God of patience and of comfort grant you to be of the same mind one with another according to Christ Jesus:
6 Kuti kwa ntima umo ni liloŵe limo nkombole kwakusya Akunnungu, Atati wa Ambuje wetu Che Yesu Kilisito.
that with one accord ye may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7 Nipele, mpochelane jwine ni jwine mpela Kilisito iŵatite pakutupochela kwa ligongo lya ukulu wa Akunnungu.
Wherefore receive ye one another, even as Christ also received you, to the glory of God.
8 Pakuwa, isyene ngunsalila, Kilisito atendekwe katumetume jwa ŵaumbale kuti alosye usyene wa Akunnungu, kuti amalichisye ilanga iŵapegwilwe achambuje ŵetu.
For I say that Christ hath been made a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises [given] unto the fathers,
9 Sooni kuti ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ŵakusye Akunnungu ligongo lya chanasa chao. Mpela Malembelo ga Akunnungu yagakuti pakusala, “Kwayele chinamlape pasikati ja ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi, chinyimbe kunlapa mmwe.”
and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, Therefore will I give praise unto thee among the Gentiles, And sing unto thy name.
10 Ni sooni Malembelo gakuti, “Nsengwanje ŵanyamwe ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi pamo ni ŵandu ŵakwe Akunnungu.”
And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.
11 Malembelo ga Akunnungu gakuti sooni, “Mwalape Ambuje, ŵanyamwe ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi, ngosyo syose mwalape!”
And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; And let all the peoples praise him.
12 Ni che Isaya nombe akuti, “Mu uŵelesi u che Yese chakopochele mundu, juchiŵalongosye ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi, nombewo chankulupilile.”
And again, Isaiah saith, There shall be the root of Jesse, And he that ariseth to rule over the Gentiles; On him shall the Gentiles hope.
13 Nipele, Akunnungu jwali ndande ja chilolelo angumbalichisye ŵanyamwe lukondwa lusyene ni chitendewele nkukulupilila kwenu namose chilolelo chenu chipunde kwa machili ga Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.
Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Ghost.
14 Achalongo achinjangu, uneji nansyene ngumanyilila kuti ŵanyamwe mgumbele umbone, ni umanyilisi wose ni sooni nkukombola kujiganyana yambone.
And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.
15 Nambo mu chikalata chi, nanlembele mwakulimbila nkati indu impepe kuti nankumbusye sooni indu yo. Ndesile yeleyo kwa ligongo lya umbone wambele Akunnungu,
But I write the more boldly unto you in some measure, as putting you again in remembrance, because of the grace that was given me of God,
16 kuti meje katumetume jwa Kilisito Yesu pasikati ja ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi. Nagapanganye masengo ga chimbopesi ga kulalichila Ngani Jambone ja Akunnungu kuti ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi aŵe mbopesi jajikundikwe ni Akunnungu, ni mbopesi jajiswejeswe ni Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.
that I should be a minister of Christ Jesus unto the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be made acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost.
17 Kwayele, nkulumbikana kwangu ni Kilisito Yesu, ngwete chakulilapa pa masengo gakwatumichila Akunnungu.
I have therefore my glorying in Christ Jesus in things pertaining to God.
18 Pakuŵa ngangulinga kuŵecheta chindu chine, ikaŵe yele yatesile Kilisito kwa litala lyangu une kwakwalongosya ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ŵajitichisye Akunnungu. Ŵatesile yeleyo kwa maloŵe ni ipanganyo,
For I will not dare to speak of any things save those which Christ wrought through me, for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed,
19 kwa machili ga imanyisyo ni yakusimonjeka ni kwa machili ga Mbumu jwa Akunnungu. Kwayele mu ulendo wangu kutyochela ku Yelusalemu ni mwingulugulu mwakwe mpaka kwichila ku Iluliko naalalichile ŵandu Ngani Jambone ja Kilisito kwa utindimisyo.
in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the Holy Ghost; so that from Jerusalem, and round about even unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ;
20 Katema kose nningwa wangu uli umo pe kuti nalichile Ngani Jambone palipose panganilipikaniche liina lya Kilisito, melepe ninaiche kutaŵa pachanya pa nsingi wauŵichikwe ni mundu jwine.
yea, making it my aim so to preach the gospel, not where Christ was [already] named, that I might not build upon another man’s foundation;
21 Mpela Malembelo ga Akunnungu yagakuti pakusala, “Aŵala ŵanganasalilwa nkati jwelejo chachilola ni aŵala ŵanganapikane ngani syakwe chachimanyilila.”
but, as it is written, They shall see, to whom no tidings of him came, And they who have not heard shall understand.
22 Lyelelyo lili ligongo lilyanekasisye kakajinji kwika kukwenu.
Wherefore also I was hindered these many times from coming to you:
23 Nambo sambano malisisye masengo gangu mu ilambo yi, ni sooni chitandile kalakala nasachile nnope kwika kukwenu,
but now, having no more any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come unto you,
24 ngukulupilila kutenda yele sambano. Patinyaule ku Isipania, ngulolela kupitila kwele ni kuonegana ni ŵanyamwe ni kusangalala kanandi pamo ni ŵanyamwe, ni ngulolela ukamuchisyo wenu mu ulendo wangu.
whensoever I go unto Spain (for I hope to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, if first in some measure I shall have been satisfied with your company)—
25 Nambo sambano ngwaula kaje ku Yelusalemu kukwatumichila ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu kweleko.
but now, [I say], I go unto Jerusalem, ministering unto the saints.
26 Pakuŵa mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵa ku Makedonia ni ku Akaya, yanonyele kusonganya indu yakwakamuchisya ŵakulaga ŵaali mumpingo wa ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu ŵakutama ku Yelusalemu.
For it hath been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints that are at Jerusalem.
27 Elo, yanonyele kuitenda yeleyo, nambo kusyene akuŵajilwa kwakamuchisya mu yeleyo. Pakuŵa iŵaga ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi akamulene ni Ŵayahudi mu upile wa chimbumu ni ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi, akuŵajilwa kwakamuchisya Ŵayahudi mu indu yaikwasoŵa ya pachilambo.
Yea, it hath been their good pleasure; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it [to them] also to minister unto them in carnal things.
28 Pachimalisye masengo go ni kwapa Ŵayahudi ukamuchisyo wo, chisepuchile kukwenu ndi mu ulendo wa ku Isipania.
When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by you unto Spain.
29 Ngumanyilila kuti patiiche kukwenu tiiche ni upile weujinji nnope wa Kilisito.
And I know that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of Christ.
30 Achalongo achinjangu, ngunchondelela kwa Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito ni kwa unonyelo waukwika ni Mbumu jwa Akunnungu, mungamuchisye une kwa kumbopelela kwannope kwa Akunnungu.
Now I beseech you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;
31 Mumbopelele ngulupuche kutyoka mu makono ga ŵandu ŵangakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵakutama ku Yudea, nombe kutumichila kwangu ku Yelusalemu ko kukundikwe ni ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu ŵaali kweleko.
that I may be delivered from them that are disobedient in Judaea, and [that] my ministration which [I have] for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints;
32 Kwayele, Akunnungu asakaga chiiche kukwenu kwa kusengwa, none sisimiswe ntima pamo ni ŵanyamwe.
that I may come unto you in joy through the will of God, and together with you find rest.
33 Akunnungu ŵakwikanacho chitendewele aŵe pamo ni ŵanyamwe wose. Eloo!
Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
