< 1 Timothy 1 >

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Saviour, and Christ Jesus our hope;
une ne Poulo ne n'sung'hwa ghwa Yeesu Kilisite kulingana nululaghilo lwa Nguluve nu mpoki ghwitu nu Yeesu kilisite juno luhuviilo lwitu.
2 unto Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
nikukulembela uve Timoti ghwe mwanango ghwa kyang'ani muvuvangilanisi vwa lwitiko. ulusungu ni lipyana nulutengano kuhuma kwa Nguluve uNhaata na kwa Yesu kilisite uMutwa ghwitu fivisaghe numue.
3 As I exhorted thee to tarry at Ephesus, when I was going into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge certain men not to teach a different doctrine,
ghukalaghe kulikaaja lya efeso, ndavule nikakusumile ye nivuka kuluta kukighavo ikya makedonia, kuti uvakanaghe avanhu vanovivulanisia mbulanisio isa vudesi.
4 neither to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questionings, rather than a dispensation of God which is in faith; [so do I now].
valeke kugadilila ifipango ifisila luvumbulilo, namatavua gha fisina fya vakuulu amasila vusililo. ifio fefino fipela kukaning'ana nafikuvatanga avanhu kukumwitika uNguruve ghwa lwitiko.
5 But the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart and a good conscience and faith unfeigned:
uvufumbue vwa ndaghilo siitu kwekuti avitiki vaghananaghe nu mwojo um'balafu, ni nyivonelo inofu, nu lwitiko ulwa kyang'ani.
6 from which things some having swerved have turned aside unto vain talking;
neke vamonga vasilekile isio, vagalwike vingiile mujova amasio amasila luvumbulilo.
7 desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor whereof they confidently affirm.
vilonda kuuva vavulanisi va ndaghilo sa Moose, napano sino vijova nakusimilisia navasitang'hanie.
8 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully,
neke tukagwile kuuti indaghilo sa Moose nofu, nave umuunhu ikusivingilila muvughane vwa Nguluve.
9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and unruly, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
kange tunoghiile kukagula kuuti indaghilo nasivikilue kuvagholofu, looli kuvagalusi navano navakundi, kuvahosi navano navikufuunya kwa Nguluve, kuvalamafu navano navimike, kuvano vibuda avaviise na vang'hina, nambe vanoviduda avanhu avange.
10 for fornicators, for abusers of themselves with men, for menstealers, for liars, for false swearers, and if there be any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine;
kange sivikilue kuva vwafu navano vivwafuka avaghoosi navaghoosi vanine, vano vikwuvila avanhu na kukuvaghusia kuvukami, avadeis na vano vijiigha isa vudesi, palikimo nisingi sooni sino nasikwiting'ana ni mbulanisio isa kyang'ani.
11 according to the gospel of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
imbulanisio isio sili muMhola inofu, jino jihusia uvuvaha vwa Nguluve, juno ighinisivua. ijio jejino nifumbatisivue nu Nguluve nipulisyaghe.
12 I thank him that enabled me, [even] Christ Jesus our Lord, for that he counted me faithful, appointing me to [his] service;
nikumhongesia uYeesu Kilisite uMutwa ghwitu juno amheliile ingufu, ulwakuva alyang'hagwile kuva m'bomba mbombo nnofu. akam'biika mumbombo jaake,
13 though I was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: howbeit I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief;
napano ulutasi nilyamulighile na kukumpumusia na kukuvalemasia avaanhu vaake. akasungukila ulwakuva nikavombagha isio muvujasu na muvusila lwitiko.
14 and the grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
kange uMutwa ghwitu alyasungukiile kyango, akamheela nu lwitiko nulughano luno luli mwa Yeesu Kilisite.
15 Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief:
ili lye lisio lya kyang'ani, lino avanhu vanoghile kukulyupila, kuuti uYeesu Kilisite alisile muiisi avapoke avahosi. muvahosi avuo, une nene muhoka makole kukila vooni.
16 howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me as chief might Jesus Christ show forth all his longsuffering, for an ensample of them that should thereafter believe on him unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
kuuti, vwimila une ahufie ulugudo lwake lwooni. pe niive kighwani kuvano vilikumwitika na kukupila uvwumi uvwa kuvusila kisila. (aiōnios g166)
17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, [be] honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
liino uvwoghopua nu vuvaha vuli nu mwene ifighono fyoni, uNtwa un'sila kusila juno uvufue navukumwagha, kange naivoneka, uNguluve ghwe jujuo mwene Ameni. (aiōn g165)
18 This charge I commit unto thee, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which led the way to thee, that by them thou mayest war the good warfare;
mwnango Timoti, ululaghilo uluo luno nikukupeela, luling'iine na masio amalongosi agha vuvili ghano ghalyajovilue vwimila uve.
19 holding faith and a good conscience; which some having thrust from them made shipwreck concerning the faith:
amasio aghuo ghakutangaghe kuvomba imbombo ja Nguluve nambe luve lutalamu ndaani, ndaule umulwalilugu unnono vule itenga ililugu nambe liive litalamu ndaani. ugadililaghe ulwitiko na kuuva ni nyivonelo inofu.
20 of whom is Hymenæus and Alexander; whom I delivered unto Satan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
avanhu avange navivikila mwojo kuvomba sino vasitang'inie kuuti sa kyangani, uluo lukuvapelela kuvuhiila kukumwitika uNguluve. Muvanhu avuo mwale uHimenaayo nu Alekisanda. avuo nimulekile usetano kuuti vamanyile, valekaghe kukum'benapula uNguluve.
