1 Thessalonians 1
1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
UPaulo, Silwano nu Timoi kutembile ja va Thesalonike mwa Nguluve Nhaata nu Mutwa Yesu Kilisite. Ulusungu nulutengano fivisaghe numue.
2 We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers;
Jatu tukumwongesia uNguluve vwimila panotukuvatambula munyifunyo situ.
3 Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, (agape) and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;
Tukujikumbuka kisila kudugha pamaso gha Nguluve Nhaata ghwitu, imbombo jinu ija lwitiko, nulwakughimba mulughano, na mulugudo ulunyalukangafu vwimila nu lwa pa Mutwa Yesu Kilisite.
4 Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.
Vanyalukolo mwevano mughanilue nu Nguluve, tukagula ulwitiko lwinu.
5 For our gospel came not unto you in word (logos) only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, (pneuma) and in much assurance; as all of you know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.
Na vule ilivangili litu likisile kulyumue nakwekuti kulisio lyene, looli palikimo ni ngufu, mwa Mhepo mwimike na mwa kyang'ani. mu uluo, mkagula kange kuti tulyale vanhu vaki n'kate mulyumwe Kwaajili jinu.
6 And all of you became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word (logos) in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit. (pneuma)
Mulyale vanhu vakutwigha usue nu Mutwa, ndavule fino mulyupile ilisio mulupumuko, nulukelo lunoluhuma kwa Mhepo Mwimike.
7 So that all of you were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia.
Namahumilo ghake, mulyale kihwani ku voni mumakedonia na mukaiya vano vikwitikila
8 For from you sounded out the word (logos) of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.
ulwakuva kuhuma kulyumue ilisio lya Nguluve lyeneile kwoni, nakwekuti kuvamakedonia na va kaiya vene. nimbale soni ulwitiko lwinu mwa Nuluve jeneile kyoni. namahumilo ghake, natulonda kujova kyokyoni.
9 For they themselves show of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how all of you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;
lwakuva vavuo vene vijova uvwisilo vwitu lulyale lwa ndani mu lyumue. vipanga fino musyetukile uNguluve kuhuma mu kihwani na kukumbo mbela uNguluve juno mwumi nu ghwa lweli.
10 And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.
Vakahumila imhola kuti mukumughula umwana ghwake kuhuma kuvulanga, juno asyukile kuhuma muvafue. Ghwope uju ghwe Yesu, junoikutuviika vweru kuhuma mung'halasi jino jikwisa.
