1I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a servant of the church in Cenchrea.
1Napenda kumjulisha kwenu dada yetu Foibe ambaye ni mtumishi katika kanisa la Kenkrea.
2Welcome her in the Lord in a manner worthy of the saints, and assist her with anything she may need from you. For she has been a great help to many people, including me.
2Mpokeeni kwa ajili ya Bwana kama iwapasavyo watu wa Mungu. Mpeni msaada wowote atakaohitaji kutoka kwenu, maana yeye amekuwa mwema sana kwa watu wengi na kwangu pia.
3Greet Prisca and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus,
3Salamu zangu ziwafikie Priska na Akula, wafanyakazi wenzangu katika utumishi wa Kristo Yesu.
4who have risked their lives for me. Not only I but all the churches of the Gentiles are grateful to them.
4Wao walihatarisha maisha yao kwa ajili yangu. Wanastahili shukrani; si tu kutoka kwangu, bali pia kutoka kwa makanisa yote ya watu wa mataifa mengine.
5Greet also the church that meets at their house. Greet my beloved Epenetus, who was the first convert to Christ in the province of Asia.
5Salamu zangu pia kwa kanisa linalokutana nyumbani kwao. Salamu zangu zimfikie rafiki yangu Epaineto ambaye ni kwa kwanza katika mkoa wa Asia kumwamini Kristo.
6Greet Mary, who has worked very hard for you.
6Nisalimieni Maria ambaye amefanya kazi kwa bidii kwa ajili yenu.
7Greet Andronicus and Junia, my fellow countrymen and fellow prisoners. They are outstanding among the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was.
7Salamu zangu kwa Androniko na Yunia, wananchi wenzangu waliofungwa gerezani pamoja nami; wao wanajulikana sana kati ya mitume; tena walikuwa Wakristo kabla yangu mimi.
8Greet Ampliatus, my beloved in the Lord.
8Salamu zangu kwa Ampliato, rafiki yangu katika kuungana na Bwana.
9Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Christ, and my beloved Stachys.
9Salamu zangu zimfikie Urbano, mfanyakazi mwenzangu katika utumishi wa Kristo; salamu zangu pia kwa rafiki yangu Staku.
10Greet Apelles, who is approved in Christ. Greet those who belong to the household of Aristobulus.
10Nisalimieni Apele ambaye uaminifu wake kwa Kristo umethibitishwa. Salamu zangu kwa wote walio nyumbani mwa Aristobulo.
11Greet Herodion, my fellow countryman. Greet those from the household of Narcissus who are in the Lord.
11Salamu zangu kwa Herodiana, mwananchi mwenzangu; na kwa jamaa yote ya Narkisi iliyojiunga na Bwana.
12Greet Tryphena and Tryphosa, women who have worked hard in the Lord. Greet my beloved Persis, who has worked very hard in the Lord.
12Nisalimieni Trufena na Trufosa wanaofanya kazi katika utumishi wa Bwana, na rafiki yangu Persi ambaye amefanya mengi kwa ajili ya Bwana.
13Greet Rufus, chosen in the Lord, and his mother, who has been a mother to me as well.
13Nisalimieni Rufo, mtu hodari sana katika kazi ya Bwana, na mama yake ambaye ni mama yangu pia.
14Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers with them.

15Greet Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas and all the saints with them.
15Nisalimieni Filologo na Yulia, Nerea na dada yake, na Olumpa, pamoja na watu wote wa Mungu walio pamoja nao.
16Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ send you greetings.
16Salimianeni ninyi kwa ninyi kwa ishara ya upendo. Salamu kwenu kutoka kwa makanisa yote ya Kristo.
17Now I urge you, brothers, to watch out for those who create divisions and obstacles that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Turn away from them.
17Ndugu zangu, nawasihi muwafichue wote wanaosababisha mafarakano na kuwafanya watu wengine waanguke, kinyume cha mafundisho mliyofundishwa. Jiepusheni na watu hao,
18For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive.
18maana watu wa namna hiyo hawamtumikii Kristo Bwana wetu, bali wanayatumikia matumbo yao wenyewe. Kwa maneno yao matamu na hotuba za kubembeleza hupotosha mioyo ya watu wanyofu.
19Everyone has heard about your obedience, so I rejoice over you. But I want you to be wise about what is good and innocent about what is evil.
19Kila mtu amesikia juu ya utii wenu na hivyo mmekuwa sababu ya furaha yangu. Nawatakeni muwe na hekima katika mambo mema, na bila hatia kuhusu mambo mabaya.
20The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
20Naye Mungu aliye chanzo cha amani hatakawia kumponda Shetani chini ya miguu yenu. Neema ya Bwana wetu Yesu Kristo iwe nanyi.
21Timothy, my fellow worker, sends you greetings, as do Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, my fellow countrymen.
21Timotheo, mfanyakazi mwenzangu, anawasalimu. Hali kadhalika Lukio, Yasoni, na Sosipatro, wananchi wenzangu, wanawasalimu.
22I, Tertius, who wrote down this letter, greet you in the Lord.
22Nami Tertio, ninayeandika barua hii nawasalimuni katika Bwana.
23Gaius, who has hosted me and all the church, sends you greetings. Erastus, the city treasurer, sends you greetings, as does our brother Quartus.
23Gayo, mwenyeji wangu, pamoja na kanisa lote linalokutana kwake, anawasalimu. Erasto, mweka hazina wa mji huu, pamoja na Kwarto, wanawasalimu.

24Neema ya Bwana wetu Yesu Kristo iwe nanyi nyote. Amina.
25Now to Him who is able to strengthen you by my gospel and by the proclamation of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery concealed for ages past
25Basi, sasa na tumsifu Mungu! Yeye anaweza kuwaimarisheni katika ile Habari Njema niliyohubiri juu ya ujumbe wa Yesu Kristo, na katika ile siri iliyofunuliwa na ambayo ilikuwa imefichika kwa karne nyinyi zilizopita.
26but now revealed and made known through the writings of the prophets by the command of the eternal God, in order to lead all nations to the obedience that comes from faith —
26Lakini, sasa ukweli huo umefunuliwa kwa njia ya maandiko ya manabii; na kwa amri ya Mungu wa milele umedhihirisha kwa mataifa yote ili wote waweze kuamini na kutii.
27to the only wise God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! Amen.
27Kwake Mungu aliye peke yake mwenye hekima, uwe utukufu kwa njia ya Yesu Kristo, milele na milele! Amina.
