1 Thessalonians 2
1 For you yourselves know, brothers, our visit to you wasn’t in vain,
Ku nsoko unyenye akola mulingile, aluna ku upembyi nuitu kitalanyu shanga ai wanankanda.
2 but having suffered before and been shamefully treated, as you know, at Philippi, we grew bold in our God to tell you the Good News of God in much conflict.
Mulingile kina u ng'wandyo ai akagilye hangi ai akiutendele ku minyala uko ku Filipi, anga ni mulingile. Ai katulaa nu ukamatiku mung'wa Itunda kitunta inkani ninza niang'wa Itunda ga nuku lwago lidu.
3 For our exhortation is not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in deception.
Ku ndogoelyo u ulangi nuitu shanga upembeeye nu ubi, ang'wi mu ushapu, ang'wi mi isue.
4 But even as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News, so we speak—not as pleasing men, but God, who tests our hearts.
Badala akwe, anga iti nai kugombekile ni Itunda nu ku huiilwa inkani ninza, uu ni kuitunta. Kuitunta, shanga ku aloeelya antu. kuiti kumuloeelya Itunda. Ng'wenso wing'wene yuyo wipukaa inkolo ni itu
5 For neither were we at any time found using words of flattery, as you know, nor a cloak of covetousness (God is witness),
Ku ndogoelyo shanga ai kutumie i makani a kisenkeneelya matungo ihi, anga ni mulingile, ang'wi kutumila makani anga kisingiilya ku nsula, Itunda ingi mukuiili nuitu.
6 nor seeking glory from men (neither from you nor from others), when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Christ.
Ang'wi shanga ai kudumile ikulyo ku antu, ang'wi kupuma kitalanyu ang'wi ku angiiza. Ai kuhumile kudaya kuguniiligwaa anga itumi ang'wa Kristo
7 But we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother cherishes her own children.
Badala akwe ai kutuile kiapolo kati anyu anga nyinya nuiapolya i ana akwe mukola.
8 Even so, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you not the Good News of God only, but also our own souls, because you had become very dear to us.
Ku nzila iyi ai katulaa nu ulowa kitalanyu. Ai katulaa alyuuku kumuhanguila shanga udu inkani ni nziza niang'wa Itunda ila ga nu likalo nu litu akola. Ku nsoko ai matulaa mi alowa itu.
9 For you remember, brothers, our labor and travail; for working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, we preached to you the Good News of God.
Kunsoko a luna, mukimbukile u mulimo nu lwago nulitu. Utiku nu mung'wi ai katulaa kuituma u mulimo kuleke kumulemeelya wihi. Matungo nanso, ai kuatanantiiye inkani ninza niang'wa Itunda.
10 You are witnesses with God how holy, righteously, and blamelessly we behaved ourselves toward you who believe.
Unyenye miakuili, ni Itunda ga, ingi ku ikulyo nila mpyani kii, ni bila usokogwa nai kugendile akola ntongeela anyu ni muhuiie.
11 As you know, we exhorted, comforted, and implored every one of you, as a father does his own children,
Iti uu, mulingile ingi ku ndogoelyo kii ku kila ung'wi anyu, anga uTata nuili ku ana akwe nai kumukomangiie nu kumuhumya insula. ai ku kuiie
12 to the end that you should walk worthily of God, who calls you into his own Kingdom and glory.
kina itakiwe kulongoleka anga nuili u witangwi nuanyu kung'wa Itunda, nai umitangile mu utemi ni ikulyo nilakwe.
13 For this cause we also thank God without ceasing that when you received from us the word of the message of God, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, God’s word, which also works in you who believe.
Ku nsoko nanso kumu lumbiiye Itunda ga kila matungo. Ku nsoko itungo nai musingiiye kupuma kitaitu u lukani nulang'wa Itunda nai muligulye, ai musingiiye shanga anga lukani nula ana adamu. Badala akwe, ai musingiiye anga itai nili, lukani lang'wa Itunda. Ingi lukani ulu niiza litumaa mulimo mukati anyu ni muhuiie.
14 For you, brothers, became imitators of the assemblies of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus; for you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, even as they did from the Jews
Ku iti uyenye, aluna, mutule antu a kutyatisha i matekeelo ang'wa Itunda nakoli ku Uyahudi mung'wa Kristo Yesu. Ku nsoko nu nyenye ga ai magigwe ku makani yayo yaayo kupuma ku antu anyu, anga nai yatulaa kina kupuma ku Ayahudi.
15 who killed both the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and drove us out, and don’t please God, and are contrary to all men,
ai atulaa ingi Ayahudi wawo nai amubulagile uMukulu uYesu palung'wi ni anyakidagu. Ingi Ayahudi naza akuzunsilye kupume kunzi. Shanga amuloeeye Itunda hangi ingi alugu ku antu ihi.
16 forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved, to fill up their sins always. But wrath has come on them to the uttermost.
Ai akugiiye kuleke kuligitya ni anyaingu iti alije kugunwa. Mapumilo akwe ingi kina alongolekile ni milandu ao. Mpelo ikuo nilang'wa Itunda lazilee migulya ao.
17 But we, brothers, being bereaved of you for a short season in presence, not in heart, tried even harder to see your face with great desire,
uSese, aluna, ai katulaa kibagula nu nyenye ku itungo ikupi, kinya muili, shanga mu nkolo. Ai kitumile ku uhumi nuitu nu ku nsula nkulu kihenga u usu nuanyu.
18 because we wanted to come to you—indeed, I, Paul, once and again—but Satan hindered us.
Kunsoko ai kalowa kupembya kitalanyu, nene Paulo, ku nkua ang'wandyo ni nkua inzuya, kuiti u mulugu ai ukugiiye.
19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Isn’t it even you, before our Lord Jesus at his coming?
Ku kihuiila kitaitu ingi ntuni ku panyambele, angwi iloeelya, ang'wi ngala akiloelya ntongeela a Mukulu itu uYesu itungo nila kupembya kitalakwe? Itii shanga nyenye ikilo anga ni ili iauya?
20 For you are our glory and our joy.
Kunsoko u nyenye ingi ikulyo ni iloeelya ni litu.
