Ephesians 4
1 I therefore, being prisoner in the Lord, praie you that yee walke worthie of the vocation whereunto yee are called,
Nihakuvavulyo, sina musuminwa wa Simwine, Nimi susuweza kuyenda kaku shiyama kuamana ninsuupo imu vasupwa.
2 With all humblenesse of minde, and meekenesse, with long suffering, supporting one an other through loue,
Muhale muvukando vwakulishuwa nichisemo ni nkulonde. Mutambulane muku sakana.
3 Endeuouring to keepe the vnitie of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Mupange mumuwolela kuvila hamwina muluhuho niku suminwa chenkozo.
4 There is one body, and one Spirit, euen as yee are called in one hope of your vocation.
Kwina muvili umwina ni luhuho lumwina, Sina hamuvasupwa che sempo imwina mukusupwa kwenu.
5 There is one Lord, one Faith, one Baptisme,
Imi kwina Simwine umwina, itumelo imwina, Ikolovezo imwina,
6 One God and Father of all, which is aboue all, and through all, and in you all.
ni Ireeza umwina ni Shentu wentu. wina hewulu lyazintu zonse nikuhita muzonse nimukati kazonse.
7 But vnto euery one of vs is giuen grace, according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
Kuzumwi ni zumwi ava hewa impo ilikanelela nimpo ya Keresite.
8 Wherfore he saith, Whe he asceded vp on hie, he led captiuity captiue, and gaue gifts vnto men.
Sina mwawambila mañolo; “hayenda kwiwulu, Avahindi vava hapitwe niku kava hapa. Avahi impo kuvantu”.
9 (Nowe, in that hee ascended, what is it but that he had also descended first into the lowest partes of the earth?
Zitalusa chizi izii, “Ava kambami”, “konji heva avyendi muzivaka zakusi mwikanda?
10 Hee that descended, is euen the same that ascended, farre aboue all heauens, that hee might fill all things)
Iye yavashetumuki muntu yoswana niya vakambameli kumawulu. Avapangi izi zintu kwizuziliza zose zintu.
11 Hee therefore gaue some to be Apostles, and some Prophets, and some Euangelists, and some Pastours, and Teachers,
Keresite avahi impo ziswana nezi; ma Apostola, mapolofta, Vawambi, Balisani ni varuti.
12 For the repairing of the Saintes, for the woorke of the ministerie, and for the edification of the bodie of Christ,
Avapangizi ku kuza vazumine kamutendo wesevelezo, kakuzaka muvili Kerest.
13 Till we all meete together (in the vnitie of faith and that acknowledging of the Sonne of God) vnto a perfite man, and vnto the measure of the age of the fulnesse of Christ,
Upanga mbwiteli chitwakasika hantu hoke mwitumelo nikwiziva mwana we Reeza. u panga izi mbwiteli chitwa kula sina njavo va vasiki haku kula kumazimo a Kereste.
14 That we henceforth be no more children, wauering and caried about with euery winde of doctrine, by the deceit of men, and with craftines, whereby they lay in wait to deceiue.
Zipangahala kuti kanji tuvi sina vahwilezana. zipangahala kuti kanji tusandolwa. Zipangahala kuti kanji tuhindwa niluhuho lwamirutilo, kamano uvutali vwa kuchenga.
15 But let vs folowe the truth in loue, and in all things, grow vp into him, which is the head, that is, Christ.
Mukuti, mutua wambe initi mwirato niku kula mwirato lyakwe iye mutwi, Kereste.
16 By whome al the body being coupled and knit together by euery ioynt, for ye furniture therof (according to the effectual power, which is in the measure of euery part) receiueth increase of the body, vnto the edifying of itselfe in loue.
Kereste ukopanya muvili wonse wava lumeli hawina. nukwete ku kula mukuswanelela inguzu zivahewa chilama nichilama imi uzakiwa mwirato.
17 This I say therefore and testifie in the Lord, that yee hencefoorth walke not as other Gentiles walke, in vanitie of their minde,
Nihakuvavulyo niwamba ichi, imi niminyemuna mwa Simwine; Kamusiyendi sina mazwahule vayenda kevuvo lyamizezo yavo.
18 Hauing their vnderstanding darkened, and being strangers from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardnesse of their heart:
Vasilafezwe mwingana zavo. Imi venakule nivuhalo vwa Ireeza. Vazwile kuvuhalo vwa Ireeza kuvula kwiziva kwavo kevaka lyakukutuhaza ikolo zavo.
19 Which being past feeling, haue giuen themselues vnto wantonnesse, to woorke all vncleannesse, euen with griedinesse.
Kavalizuwi kuswava. Vava likukutuhalisi avovene niku sachena kwamitendo, muzintu zonse zivawola.
20 But yee haue not so learned Christ,
Imi kanjimona mu muvarutilwa kuamana ni Kereste.
21 If so be yee haue heard him, and haue bene taught by him, as the trueth is in Iesus,
Nisepa muvazuwi kuamana ni zakwe. Imi nizumina kuti muvarutwa mwali, sina vuniti havwina kwa Jesu.
22 That is, that yee cast off, concerning the conuersation in time past, that olde man, which is corrupt through the deceiueable lustes,
muzwise zintu ziamana nimitendo yenu yakale imwali kurunda, muntu wakale. muntu wentazi yoboliswa zintu zichenga.
23 And be renued in the spirit of your minde,
Muchupule muntu wentazi ilikuti muwole kubusuluswa muluhuho lwamizezo
24 And put on ye new man, which after God is created vnto righteousnes, and true holines.
yenu. Mupange vulyo mukuti muyole kuzwata muntu muhya, Chakuzwa kwa Ireeza. Zivumbitwe mukushiyama nikunjolola kweniti.
25 Wherefore cast off lying, and speake euery man truth vnto his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
Muvike kumbali zakuchenga, “Muwambe chaku shiyamisa, wumwi niwumwi niyavambene naye, “Mukuti tuvantu va hamwina.
26 Bee angrie, but sinne not: let not the sunne goe downe vpon your wrath,
“Muvenge, kono kangi mupangi chive”. “Imi kanji musiyi izuva nilimina nimusivengete,
27 Neither giue place to the deuill.
Kanjimuhi Diavulusi chivaka.
28 Let him that stole, steale no more: but let him rather labour, and worke with his handes the thing which is good, that hee may haue to giue vnto him that needeth.
Munsa kanji navoleli kwiva hape, chakuti, uswanela kuseveza. uswanera kutendisa mayaza akwe, Ilikuti awole kuliyavela nimuntu yasena.
29 Let no corrupt comunication proceed out of your mouths: but that which is good, to ye vse of edifying, that it may minister grace vnto the hearers.
kanji kuzwi chiwambo chivilala mu mulomo wakwe. Imi, kuzwe manzwi ashiyeme enachakuha china mutendo, kuha intuso kwavo vatekeleze.
30 And grieue not the holy Spirit of God, by whom ye are sealed vnto ye day of redemption.
Imi nsazi munyazelezi Luhuho lunjola lwa Ireeza. Kakuli njiyena umuvaswaiwa kali mwizuva lyepuluso imuvawani.
31 Let all bitternesse, and anger, and wrath, crying, and euill speaking be put away from you, with all maliciousnesse.
Muvike kumbali zivava, kufilikana, kuvenga, ikani, kutukana nizose zina
32 Be ye courteous one to another, and tender hearted, freely forgiuing one another, euen as God for Christes sake, freely forgaue you.
chive. Muve nichisemo kuzumwi ni zumwi, mulizuwile inse. muliswalele, sina nji Ireeza mwa Kereste hamiswaleli.
