1 Wathesalonike 4
1 Hatimaye ndongo, tukabhapela n'teema ni kubhasiikwa Yesu Kristu. Kama kampokili maelekezo kuhomela kwa tete namna yai pasibhwa kulota na niyakampendesya K'yara, kwa njela eye kabh'ele mulotai ni kubhomba zaidi.
FINALLY, brethren, we beseech you therefore, and conjure you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk, and please God, so ye would abound more and more.
2 Kwa ndabha mmanyili malobhi gani yatubhapelili kup'etela Bwana Yesu.
For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.
3 Kwa ndabha agha ndo mapenzi gha K'yara: utakasobhuinu- ndabha muyepukai zinaa,
For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that you should abstain from whoredom;
4 Ndabha Kila mmonga bhinu amanyili namna ya kumiliki n'dala munu muene ki utakatifu na kiheshima.
that every one of you may know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honour,
5 Kotokuya ni n'dala kwajia tamaasa mumbhele (Kujo mataifa ghaghammanyili lepi K'yara).
not in the vile passion of lewdness, as the Gentiles which know not God;
6 Akotokuya munu yuoa yhola yaivukai mipaka kun'kosela ndongo munu kwajia ya lijambo ele. Kwa ndabha Bwana muene ndo yailepa kisasi kya mambo ghoa agha, kama katulongolili kubhaonya na kubhashuhudila.
that no man transgress against, or act dishonestly to his brother in this matter because the Lord is the avenger of all such things, as we have told you before, and testified.
7 Kwa ndabha Bwana atukutili lepi kwa uchafu, bali kitakatifu.
For God hath not called us unto impurity, but unto holiness.
8 Kwa eyu yakaibela ele yabhibela lepi bhanu, Bali akambela K'yara, yaakabhapela Roho N'takatifu bhuake.
Therefore he that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his Holy Spirit.
9 Kuhusu upendo wa ndongo, iyelepi haja ya munu yuoa yhola kukuyandikila, kwa ndabha mfundisi bhu ni kyala kuganana yhomo kwa yhomo.
Now concerning brotherly love, I have no need to write unto you: for ye yourselves are divinely taught to love one another.
10 Hakika, mwaketili agha ghoa kwa bhalongo bhabhayele Makedonia iyoa, lakini tukabhasii, ndhongo, niketai hatani kuzidi.
And indeed ye practise it towards all the brethren that are throughout Macedonia: but we conjure you, brethren, to abound more and more;
11 Tu kabhasii mtamawiayi kuishi maisha gha kutulila, kujali mbhombho sinu, ni kufuanya mbhombho kwa mabhoko gha yhomo, kama katubhaamuili.
and that you make it your study to live peaceably, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, even as we have enjoined you;
12 Fwanyai agha ili mubhwesi ayi kutola kinofu na kiheshima kwa abha bhabha yele kwibhala ni imani, ili usiponghokibhu ni lihitaji liyoalela.
that ye walk becomingly towards those without, and need no assistance from any person.
13 Tilondelepi muenga muyetewai kayilondeka lepi, emu bhalongo, panani ya abha bhabha ghonili, ili msihidi kuhuzunika kwa bhamana bhabhayele lepi ni uhakika wa magono ghaghihida.
Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning those who are fallen asleep, that ye be not afflicted, as the rest of mankind who have no hope.
14 Ikayelai lianimi kuwa Yesu afuili ni kifufuka kabh'ele, hata kabh'ele K'yara akabhaleta pamonga ni Yesu abha bhabhagonili kimauti kup'etela muene.
For if we believe that Jesus died, and rose again, so also those that have fallen asleep for Jesus shall God bring with him.
15 Kwajia ya agha. Tukabhajobhela muenga kwa lilobhi la Bwana, ndabha tete ya tuyele hai, yatuyelai magono gha kuhida muene Bwana, hakika tukabhalongolela bhala bhabhagonili kimauti.
For this I say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left unto the coming of the Lord, shall not prevent those who are fallen asleep.
16 Kwa ndabha muene Bwana alaselela kuhomela kumabhengu. Alahida ni sauti ibhaa, pamonga ni sauti ya malaika bhakuu, pamonga ni palapanda ya K'yara, nabho bhabhafuili ku'etela Kristu bhalafufuka hosi.
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Kabh'ele tete yatuyele hai yatubakili, tulaungana mmabhengu pamonga nabhu kumlaki Bwana muhewani. Kwa njela eye tulaya ni Bwana magono ghoa.
then we who are alive, who remain, shall be caught up together with them into the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we be ever with the Lord.
18 Kwa iyo, nyifalijiayi yhomo kwa yhomo kwa malobhi agha.
Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
