1 Timote 5
1 ʻOua naʻa ke valoki kakaha ki ha motuʻa, kae fakakolekolea, ʻo hangē ki ha tamai; pea ki he kau talavou ʻo taau mo e ngaahi kāinga;
Ungamkhuzi ngolaka umuntu omdala kodwa mncenge ngokungathi nguyihlo. Amajaha aphathe njengabafowenu,
2 [Lea ]ki he kau finemātuʻa ʻo taau mo e faʻē; mo e kau finemui ʻo taau mo e ngaahi tuofefine, ʻi he angamaʻa kotoa pē.
abesifazane abadala njengonyoko, abesifazane abatsha njengodadewenu ngokuhlambuluka okupheleleyo.
3 Tauhi ki he kau fefine kuo mate honau husepāniti, ʻakinautolu ʻoku masiva moʻoni.
Woba lonanzelelo olufaneleyo kubafelokazi abaswelayo kakhulu.
4 Pea kapau ʻoku ai ha fefine kuo mate hono husepāniti ʻoku ai ʻene fānau pe mokopuna, tuku ke nau fuofua fakahā ʻenau anga fakalotu ʻi ʻapi, pea totongi lelei ki heʻenau mātuʻa: he ʻoku lelei pea mālie ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.
Kodwa nxa umfelokazi elabantwana kumbe abazukulu, kumele bafunde kuqala kulakho konke ukusebenzisa ukholo lwabo ngokukhathalela abendlu yakwabo langokusiza abazali babo labazali babazali babo ngoba lokhu kuyamthokozisa uNkulunkulu.
5 Pea ko eni, ko e fefine kuo mate hono husepāniti, pea paea moʻoni, ʻoku falala ia ki he ʻOtua, pea fai maʻu pe ʻene kole tāumaʻu mo e lotu ʻi he pō mo e ʻaho.
Umfelokazi oswelayo kakhulu njalo esele eyedwa ubeka ithemba lakhe kuNkulunkulu njalo uqhubeka ebusuku lemini ekhuleka ecela usizo kuNkulunkulu.
6 Ka ko ia ʻoku moʻui ki he fiemālie fakakakano, ʻoku mate ia ʻi he lolotonga ʻene moʻui.
Kodwa umfelokazi ophilela intokozo ufile lanxa esaphila.
7 Pea ko e ngaahi meʻa ni ke ke fekauʻaki koeʻuhi ke nau taʻehalaia.
Banike labo abantu izeluleko lezi ukuze angabikhona ongasoleka.
8 He kapau ʻoku ʻikai ke tokonaki ʻe ha tokotaha ki hono kāinga, pea kiate kinautolu tonu ʻi hono fale, kuo siʻaki ʻe ia ʻae lotu, pea lahi hake ʻene kovi ʻaʻana ʻiate ia ʻoku taʻelotu.
Nxa umuntu enganakekeli izihlobo zakhe ikakhulu abendlu yakwabo, uselulahlile ukholo lwakhe njalo mubi kakhulu kulongakholwayo.
9 Ke ʻoua naʻa fili ki he fakataha ha fefine kuo mate hono husepāniti ʻoku teʻeki ai onongofulu taʻu ʻene motuʻa, naʻe mali ia ki he tangata pe taha,
Akulamfelokazi ozabekwa eluhlwini lwabafelokazi ngaphandle kokuba eseleminyaka edlula engamatshumi ayisithupha, obengokade ethembekile kumkakhe
10 Kuo fakaongolelei ia ʻi he ngaahi ngaue lelei; ʻo kapau naʻa ne tauhi fānau ʻo kapau naʻa ne fakaafe ʻae kakai fononga, kapau naʻa ne fufulu ʻae vaʻe ʻoe kāinga māʻoniʻoni, kapau naʻa ne tokoni ki he kakai mahaki, kapau naʻa ne faʻa fai ʻae ngaahi ngaue lelei kotoa pē
njalo edumile ngezenzo zakhe ezinhle, ezinjengokondla abantwana, lokuphatha kuhle izihambi, lokugezisa inyawo zabangcwele, lokusiza abahluphekayo kanye lokuzinikela kuzozonke izenzo ezinhle.
11 Kae tuku pe ʻae kau finemui kuo mate honau husepāniti; he ʻoka nau ka taʻeanganofo kia Kalaisi, pea te nau fie mali;
Abafelokazi abasesebatsha ungababeki eluhlwini olunjalo. Ngoba lapho izinkanuko zabo zomzimba sezikhulela ukuzinikela kwabo kuKhristu bafuna ukwenda.
12 ʻO nau halaia ai, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau liʻaki ʻenau fuofua tui.
Ngalokho-ke, bazilethela ukwahlulelwa phezu kwabo ngoba bephule isithembiso sabo sokuqala.
13 Kaeʻumaʻā ʻoku nau fai fakapikopiko, ʻo feʻaluʻaki fano pe ʻi he fale ki he fale; pea ʻikai ngata ʻi he fakapikopiko, ka koe kau fakalanga lau foki ʻo kaunoa, ʻonau lea ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ʻikai totonu.
Langaphandle kwalokho, basuka babe lomkhuba wokuvilapha batshone benquma ngemizi. Njalo kababi ngamavila nje kuphela kodwa bangabanyeyayo labathandi bezindaba zabanye besitsho izinto okungafanelanga bazitsho.
14 Ko ia ko hoku loto ke mali ʻae kau finemui, pea fānau, mo tauhi ʻae fale, pea ʻoua naʻa ai ha tuʻunga ki he lea manuki ʻoe fili.
Ngakho, abafelokazi abasesebatsha ngibacebisa ukuba bende, babelabantwana, baphathe izindlu zabo njalo banganiki isitha ithuba lokuba kube lokuhleba.

Nxa umuntu okholwayo elabafelokazi emzini wakhe, kumele abasize hatshi ukuyekela besinda ibandla ukuze ibandla lisize abafelokazi abaswela kakhulu.
17 ʻIlonga ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻoku pule lelei, ke ʻatu kiate kinautolu ʻae fakaʻapaʻapa lahi, kae lahi hake kiate kinautolu ʻoku ngaue ʻi he folofola mo e akonaki.
Abadala abaqhuba kuhle imisebenzi yebandla bafanele ukuhlonitshwa okuphindiweyo ikakhulu labo abasebenza ukutshumayela lokufundisa.
18 He ʻoku pehē ʻae tohi, “ʻOua naʻa ke nonoʻo ʻae ngutu ʻoe pulu ʻoku ne molomoloki ʻae uite.” Pea, “ʻOku taau mo e tangata ngaue hano tauhi.”
Ngoba umbhalo uthi: “Inkabi ungayifaki isayeke nxa ibhula amabele,” njalo uthi, “Isisebenzi sifanele umholo waso.”

20 Ko kinautolu ʻoku fai angahala, valoki fakahā pe, ke manavahē ai ʻae niʻihi.
Abenza izono kumele bakhuzwe phambi kwabantu ukuze labanye baxwayiseke.
21 ʻOku ou fekau ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua, mo e ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, mo e kau ʻāngelo kuo fili, ke ke tokanga ki he ngaahi meʻa ni, ʻo taʻefilifilimānako ki ha taha ʻae taha ʻi he filifilimānako.
Ngiyakulaya phambi kukaNkulunkulu loKhristu uJesu lezingilosi ezikhethiweyo ukuba ugcine iziqondiso lezi kungekho bandlululo njalo ungenzi lutho ngokukhetha.
22 ʻOua naʻa ke hilifaki nima fakavave ki ha tangata ʻe tokotaha, pea ʻoua naʻa ke kau ki he angahala ʻoe kakai: ke ke tauhi koe ke ke maʻa.
Ungaphangisi ukubeka izandla emuntwini njalo ungahlanganyeli ezonweni zabanye. Zigcine uhlambulukile.
23 ʻOua naʻa ke kei inu vai [pe], ka ke ʻai ʻae uaine siʻi, telia ho fatu mo hoʻo faʻa mahamahaki.
Yekela ukunatha amanzi kuphela kodwa sebenzisa lewayini elincinyane ngenxa yesisu sakho lokuhlala kwakho ugula.
24 ʻOku tomuʻa hā ʻae angahala ʻae kakai niʻihi, ʻo muʻomuʻa ki he fakamaau; ka ʻoku muimui pe ʻi he niʻihi.
Izono zabanye abantu zisobala, zifika endaweni yokwahlulela kuqala kulabo; kodwa abanye ezabo izono zilandela ngemva kwabo.
25 Pea ʻoku pehē foki ʻoku tomuʻa hā mai ʻae ngaahi ngaue lelei ʻae niʻihi; pea ko ia ʻoku ʻikai pehē, ʻe ʻikai faʻa fufū ia.
Ngokufanayo, izenzo ezinhle zisobala njalo lalezo ezingenjalo azingeke zihlale zifihliwe.
