Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1As a prisoner in the Lord, then, I urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling you have received:
1Ngato kanjangarilali Kaparani, jurana kurukurubala wapaia, jura talku wirarinanto jurani karkanani, minalinunkanali Nulia jurana matja karkana,
2with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love,
2Waka ngundraterinali ja malti pratjanali, ja manjujeli jura mandramalinanto ngantjanani.
3and with diligence to preserve the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.
3Ja jigleri ngananau Jaolaia kulnuni ngamalkala murlaia karanali.
4There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called;
4Palku kulno ja Jaola kulno, worderu Nulia jurana bakana karkana wonti jurani karkanaia kalkani kulnuja;
5one Lord, one faith, one baptism;
5Kapara kulno, morlalu ngundrana kulno, multibanila kulno;
6one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
6Goda kulno ja Ngaperi warupotuja, Nauja warupotuni miri ja warupotuni jela ja warupotuni nganai.
7Now to each one of us grace has been given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
7Pratjanani ngaianangu Nulia jinkina wonti manjula, worderu Christuni jinkini kurana wonti.
8This is why it says: “When He ascended on high, He led captives away, and gave gifts to men.”
8Jendrangundruja Nauja jatai: „Nauja miri tarana wonti ja kanjangarila dupudupu wapalkana wonti ja kanani poto jinkina wonti.“
9What does “He ascended” mean, except that He also descended to the lower parts of the earth?
9Jenia: „Nauja tarana wonti“ wondrai, Nauja bakana ngarina wonti mita pirini ngarinalu.
10He who descended is the very One who ascended above all the heavens, in order to fill all things.
10Nauja matja ngarina Naupini nganai, Nauja bakana tarana wonti morla miri pariwilpa pratjanani, Nulia warupoto manamiri ngankananto.
11And it was He who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers,
11Ja Nulia muntali jinkina wonti palpa Apostel, palpa Propheta, palpa ngantjani jaura kaukaubanietja, palpa ngamalkanietja, palpa ngujangujara jinkinietja nganala,
12to equip the saints for works of ministry and to build up the body of Christ,
12Kana kulikiri ngankingala ngankani ngamalkijiribanaia, Christuni palkuni wotinaia.
13until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, as we mature to the full measure of the stature of Christ.
13Ngaiana pratjana wokaranantulu morlalu ngundrana kulnuja ja Godaia Ngatamuraia ngujamanaia, ja materi pirnaia, ja Christuni manamirila pirnaia.
14Then we will no longer be infants, tossed about by the waves and carried around by every wind of teaching and by the clever cunning of men in their deceitful scheming.
14Ngaiana wata morla kupa jeribaka nganananto, tanana ngujangujara watarali pratjanali wijawijabai ja tertabai kanaia jedibanali ja tjautjauja kirieli karkarkanaia.
15Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Christ Himself, who is the head.
15A‐ai, ngaiana morlalu nganananto ngantjanani ja poto warupotuni punkananto nunkangu, Nauja mangatandra nganai, Christus;
16From Him the whole body, fitted and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love through the work of each individual part.
16Nunkangundru palku warupoto ngumu ngokana ja manduribana warai marangokijiribamalini pratjanali, worderu buru pilki ja pilkieli ngankai palku pirnarinanto nunkani wotinaia ngantjanali.
17So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.
17Jenia ngani jatai, ja Kaparani morlalu kurai, jura wata morla wirarinanto kana koni jeribaka tanani tjuru tjautjauni;
18They are darkened in their understanding and alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardness of their hearts.
18Tanani tjuru ngalpuru nganai, tana Godaia tepini worita nganai kondru, nauja tanangu parai, ja tanani ngara ngurungurundru.
19Having lost all sense of shame, they have given themselves over to sensuality for the practice of every kind of impurity, with a craving for more.
19Tana burka pani pantjina wonti, ja tjikatjikani jinkiterina wonti murumuru pratjana ngankala ngukingukipaterinani.
20But this is not the way you came to know Christ.
20Jura wata jeruja Christus kiririna wonti.
21Surely you heard of Him and were taught in Him—in keeping with the truth that is in Jesus—
21Jura nunkangundru matja ngarana ja nunkangundru matja ngujangujara manina, worderu morlalula Jesungu nganai. (Dakani jaura G. D. 19 Trinitatis.)
22to put off your former way of life, your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires;
22Jura dukaraterianau, worderu jura warula wirarina wonti, kana womala, nauja jedibanaia milkirinali munta taripateriai;
23to be renewed in the spirit of your minds;
23Ja marraribaterianau Jaolali jurani tjuru,
24and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
24Ja kana marra widmaterianau, ninaia Godali nunkangu jeribaka pantjimana wonti talkuni ja kulikirini morlalulaia.
25Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to his neighbor, for we are all members of one another.
25Jendrangundruja jedi jaura woranau, ja jaura morlalu jinkimalianimai pratjanani ngurulani, ngangau ngaiana pratjaterina palku buru nganai.
26“Be angry, yet do not sin.” Do not let the sun set upon your anger,
26Wata kuterianau, ja wata madlentji ngankanau; jura wata kuterinanto ditji wirinantulu.
27and do not give the devil a foothold.
27Bakana wata piri jinkianau kutjini.
28He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing good with his own hands, that he may have something to share with the one in need.
28Warle ngopera kurieli maninala, wata morla kurieli maninanto, a‐ai, nulu marali nunkanali ngumu ngankananto, nulu muntali ngamalkananto wangiwangini jinkila.
29Let no unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building up the one in need and bringing grace to those who listen.
29Jaura tunka wata jurani manandru dunkananto, a‐ai, windri wotinaia mina ngumu nganai, nulu manjula jinkinanto ngaranietja worangu.
30And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
30Ja wata Jaola kulikiri ngaurongauro ngankanau, nunkanali jura matja dantjamana kulkani ditjia.
31Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, outcry and slander, along with every form of malice.
31Kaldri, ja tirijiritjina, ja tiri, ja maritjina, ja ngirkibana pratjana jurangundru woranau madlentji pratjanani jela.
32Be kind and tenderhearted to one another, forgiving each other just as in Christ God forgave you.
32Murlali ngamangamaranau, kalumiltjamiltjarilkijiribamalianimai, madlentji worijiribamalianimai, worderu bakana Godali jurangu Christungu kalingana wonti.
