1 Thessalonians 1
1 To the Thessalonian church in union with God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, from Paul, Silas, and Timothy. May God bless you and give you peace.
Sodꞌa moleꞌ mia au, Paulus, ma mia toronoo nggara, Silas no Timotius. Hai haitua susura ia, fee neu basa hei atahori saraniꞌ sia kota Tesalonika. Hei, mana hii tungga Lamatualain hita Aman, no tungga Yesus Kristus, hita Malanggan. Hai moꞌe fo Lamatualain natudꞌu rala malolen neu nggi, naa fo ama misodꞌa no mole-dꞌameꞌ.
2 We always mention you in our prayers and thank God for you all;
Hai moꞌe makasi mikindondooꞌ a neu Lamatualain huu hei nemehere mara. Hai hule-oꞌe fee basa nggi hatuꞌ-rerelon.
3 recalling continually before our God and Father the efforts that have resulted from your faith, the toil prompted by your love, and the patient endurance sustained by your hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Hai misinedꞌa mikindooꞌ a ue-tatao mara huu mimihere neu Lamatuaꞌ ma sue E. Hei miꞌitataaꞌ mikindoo mo tataos naa ra, huu mimihena neu Lamatuaꞌ Yesus. Hai akaꞌ moꞌe makasi ma mendi basa naa ra reu Lamatualain, hita Aman, matan.
4 Friends, whom God loves, we know that he has chosen you,
Toronoo nggare! Hai bubꞌuluꞌ Lamatualain sue nggi. Naa de, Ana pili nala nggi dadꞌi bobꞌonggin.
5 because the good news that we brought came home to you, not merely as so many words, but with a power and a fulness of conviction due to the Holy Spirit. For you know the life that we lived among you for your good.
Leleꞌ hai misiꞌ Tesalonika, hai mifadꞌe nggi Lamatuaꞌ Dudꞌui Malolen. Leleꞌ naa, hei pasa ndiki mara de rena malolole hai oꞌolam. Hei nda renaꞌ a sa, te ama o mita no mata-ao mara Lamatualain koasan mia Dula-dale Meumaren. Naa mana tao hei simbo tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Lamatualain Dudꞌui Malolen. Leleꞌ naa, hei mita hai tetende-nemberii mara, ma hai tao taꞌo bee fo hei mihine tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Lamatualain dꞌalan.
6 And you yourselves began to follow, not only our example, but the Master’s also; and, in spite of much suffering, you welcomed the message with a joy inspired by the Holy Spirit,
Huu hei hii nau tungga Lamatualain hihiin, naa de misodꞌa tungga hai tatao-nonoꞌim, ma misodꞌa tungga Lamatuaꞌ Yesus tatao-nonoꞌin boe. Te leleꞌ hei simbo Dudꞌui Maloleꞌ naa, hambu atahori raꞌasususaꞌ hei. Mae taꞌo naa o, hei nda miꞌiundaꞌ sa, huu Dula-dale Meumareꞌ tao namahoꞌo rala mara.
7 and so became a pattern to all who believed in Christ throughout Macedonia and Greece.
No taꞌo naa, hei mitudꞌu dalaꞌ soaꞌ neu basa atahori mamahereꞌ sia propinsi Makedonia no propinsi Akaya.
8 For it was from you that the Lord’s message resounded throughout Macedonia and Greece; and, more than that, your faith in God has become known far and wide; so that there is no need for us to say another word.
Te nda siaꞌ a naa sa. Lamatualain Dudꞌui Malolen o neneola-olaꞌ mia hei sia Tesalonika losa sudꞌiꞌ a bee-bꞌee. Dadꞌi hai feꞌe mae olaꞌ saa fai, huu basa atahori rena hei nemeherem neu Lamatualain ena.
9 Indeed, in speaking about us, the people themselves tell of the reception you gave us, and how, turning to God from your idols, you became servants of the true and living God,
Sia bee-bꞌee atahori ra badꞌuiꞌ oi maꞌahulun hei simbo hai no lima ruaꞌ. Basa ma hei nggari hendi sosonggo mara, de heoꞌ baliꞌ tungga Lamatualain matetuꞌ a. Huu hei mae dadꞌi Lamatualain masodꞌaꞌ a pusakan.
10 and are now awaiting the return from heaven of his Son whom he raised from the dead – Jesus, our deliverer from the coming wrath.
Ara o badꞌuiꞌ rae, hei nea-nea Lamatualain Anan Yesus nema mia sorga. Maꞌahulun, atahori ra tao risa E, te Lamatualain tao nasodꞌa baliꞌ E ena. Mete ma Lamatualain nae fee huku-dokiꞌ neu atahori, na, Lamatuaꞌ Yesus mana soi nala nggita mia Lamatualain nasan.
