1 Timothy 1

1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to a command of God our Saviour, and of the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,

Paulo, n'tume ghwa Kristu Yesu, kulengana ni amri jha Bwana K'yara ni mwokozi ghwa jhotu Yesu Kristu jhaajhele bhujasiri bhwitu,

2 to Timotheus — genuine child in faith: Grace, kindness, peace, from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord,

kwa Timotheo mwanabhangu ghwa kweli mu imani: Neema, rehema ni amani syasihomela kwa K'yara Dadi ni Kristu Bwana bhitu.

3 according as I did exhort thee to remain in Ephesus — I going on to Macedonia — that thou mightest charge certain not to teach any other thing,

Kama kyanisiili bho nibhokili kulota Makedonia, usialaghe Efeso ili kwamba ubhwesiajhi kubhaamuru bhanu fulani bhasifundisi mafundisu tofauti.

4 nor to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, that cause questions rather than the building up of God that is in faith: —

Kabhele bhasipelekesi fijegu ni orodha sya nasaba syasibelikujha ni mwishu. Agha ghisababisya mabishanu nesu kuliko kubhasaidila kujhendelesya mpango bhwa K'yara bhwa imani.

5 And the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned,

Basi lilengo lya lilaghisu e'le ndo bhupendo bhwabhwihoma mu muoyo bhunofu, mu dhamiri jhinofu ni mu imani jha bhukweli.

6 from which certain, having swerved, did turn aside to vain discourse,

Baadhi jha bhanu bhalidulili lilengo bhakaghaleka mafundisu agha ni kusanukila malongesi gha kipumbafu.

7 willing to be teachers of law, not understanding either the things they say, nor concerning what they asseverate,

Bhilonda kujha bhalimu bha sheria, lakini bhamanyilepi kyabhijobha au kyabhisisitisya.

8 and we have known that the law [is] good, if any one may use it lawfully;

lakini tumanyili kujha sheria ndo jhinofu kama munu akajhitumila kwa usahihi.

9 having known this, that for a righteous man law is not set, but for lawless and insubordinate persons, ungodly and sinners, impious and profane, parricides and matricides, men-slayers,

Tumanyili kujha, sheria jhatongibhulepi kwandabha jha munu mwenye haki, bali kwandabha jha bhavunja sheria ni bhaasi, bhanu bhabhabelikujha bhatauwa ni bhenye dhambi ni bhabhabelili kujha ni K'yara ni bhaovu. Jhitongibhu kwandabha jha bhabhikoma Dadi ni bhanyinabhabhi,

10 whoremongers, sodomites, men-stealers, liars, perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that to sound doctrine is adverse,

kwa ndabha jha bhauaji, kwandabha jha bhaasherati, kwa ndabha jha bhanu bhazinzi, kwandabha jha bhanu bhabhiteka bhanu ni kubhabheka bhatumwa kwandabha jha bhadesi, kwandabh jha mashahidi bha bhudesi, ni jhejhioha jha ajhele kinyume ni majhelekesu gha bhuaminifu.

11 according to the good news of the glory of the blessed God, with which I was entrusted.

Majhelekesu agha ghihomela ni injili jhajhijhele ni bhutukufu bhwa K'yara jha abarikibhu ambajho kwa bhene niaminibhu.

12 And I give thanks to him who enabled me — Christ Jesus our Lord — that he did reckon me stedfast, having put [me] to the ministration,

Nikambombesya Yesu Kristu Bwana ghwitu. Anipelili ng'hofu, kwa kujha anibhalangili nene kujha mwaminifu, na anibhekili mu huduma.

13 who before was speaking evil, and persecuting, and insulting, but I found kindness, because, being ignorant, I did [it] in unbelief,

Najhele munu ghwa kukufuru, n'tesaji ni munu ghwa ngondo. Lakini nakabhili rehema kwandabha nabhombili kwa ujinga kwa kutokukiera.

14 and exceedingly abound did the grace of our Lord, with faith and love that [is] in Christ Jesus:

Lakini neema jha K'yara ghwitu jhimemili imani ni bhupendo bhwabhujhele mwa Kristu Yesu.

15 stedfast [is] the word, and of all acceptation worthy, that Christ Jesus came to the world to save sinners — first of whom I am;

Bhujumbe obho ndo bhwakuaminika na bhwilondeka kupokelibhwa ni bhoha jha kujha Kristu Yesu ahidili pa duniani kuokola bhenye dhambi. Nene nembimbi kuliko bhoha.

16 but because of this I found kindness, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all long-suffering, for a pattern of those about to believe on him to life age-during: (aiōnios g166)

Lakini kwa ndabha ejhe nene napelibhu rehema ili kwamba mugati mwa nene kwanza, Kristu Yesu adhihirishiajhi bhuvumilivu bhuoha. Abhombili naha kama kielelesu kwa bhoha bhabhibetakun'tumaini muene kwa ndabha jha bhusima bhwa milele. (aiōnios g166)

17 and to the King of the ages, the incorruptible, invisible, only wise God, [is] honour and glory — to the ages of the ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)

Na henu kwa mfalme jha abelikujha ni mwisu, jhaifwalepi, jhaibelakubhoneka, K'yara muene ijhelayi heshima ni bhutukufu milele ni milele. Amina. (aiōn g165)

18 This charge I commit to thee, child Timotheus, according to the prophesies that went before upon thee, that thou mayest war in them the good warfare,

Nikalibheka lilaghisu e'le palongolo pa Timotheo, mwana bhangu. Nibhomba naha kulengana ni bhunabii bhwabhwapisibhu hoti kuhusu bhebh'e, ili kwamba uhusikayi mu ngondo jhinofu.

19 having faith and a good conscience, which certain having thrust away, concerning the faith did make shipwreck,

Khetayi naha ili kwamba ujhelayi ni imani ni dhamiri jhinofu. Baadhi jha bhanu bhaghabelili agha bhakajhangamisya imani.

20 of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I did deliver to the Adversary, that they might be instructed not to speak evil.

Kama fela Himeneyo ni Alekizanda ambabho nimpelili lisyetani ili bhamanyisibhwayi bhasikufuru.
