Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
World English Bible
1Ditjindru ja miljarandru, ngatata worajai, baku nganai jurangu dakala;
1But concerning the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that anything be written to you.
2Ngangau jura munta talku milkila, Kaparaia ditji wokarai, worderu kurikantji tinkani.
2For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord comes like a thief in the night.
3Tana jatanani: Murla nganai ja japa pani, ngadani nurujeli tanangu tintani wokarai, worderu dankani ketjaketjana mandrantjani, ja tana bulu japa mindrila nganai.
3For when they are saying, “Peace and safety,” then sudden destruction will come on them, like birth pains on a pregnant woman. Then they will in no way escape.
4Jura, ngatata worajai, wata ngalpurani ngamanau, nulupini ditjieli kurikantjieli jeribaka jurana pataiati.
4But you, brothers, aren’t in darkness, that the day should overtake you like a thief.
5Jura pratjana praitjaia kupa ja ditjia kupa nganai; ja ngaiana wata tinkandru ja ngalpurandru nganai.
5You are all children of light and children of the day. We don’t belong to the night, nor to darkness,
6Jeruja ngaiana wata mukaturarananto nguruni jeribaka, a‐ai, ngaiana tepi ja milja ngamananto.
6so then let’s not sleep, as the rest do, but let’s watch and be sober.
7Ngangau tana, tana mukaturarai, tinkani mukaturarai, ja tana, tana tapana parawarai, tana tinkani tapana parawarai;
7For those who sleep, sleep in the night; and those who are drunk are drunk in the night.
8Ngaiana, ngaiana ditjindru nganai, milja ngamananto, morlalu ngundranaia ja ngantjanaia marda katieli matja widmaterina, ja kalkanaia kabuluru kulkanaia.
8But since we belong to the day, let’s be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.
9Ngangau Godali ngaianana wata kurana wonti tiria, a‐ai, tepi pirna manila Kapara ngaianani Jesungu Christungundru,
9For God didn’t appoint us to wrath, but to the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
10Nauja ngaianangu palina wonti, ngangau ngaiana, tepi ngamanani kara mukaturaranani kara, nunkangunto tepi ngamananto.
10who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
11Jendrangundruja kurukurubijiribamalianimai ja wotijirimalianimai, worderu jura bakana ngankai.
11Therefore exhort one another, and build each other up, even as you also do.
12Ngaiani jurangu ngatjiai, ngatata worajai, jura tanana ngujamananto, tanali jurangu ngankai, ja jurani kapara nganai Kaparani, ja jurana kurukurubai,
12But we beg you, brothers, to know those who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord and admonish you,
13Ja jura tanana pirna ngundrananto ngantjanani, tanani ngankanandru. Murlali ngananau tanangunto.
13and to respect and honor them in love for their work’s sake. Be at peace among yourselves.
14Ngaiani jurana kurukurubai, ngatata worajai: Tjikatjikaetja daudauanau; kana burkaburka pirna ngankalkanau; kana waltowalto patanau; manju ngananau pratjanani.
14We exhort you, brothers: Admonish the disorderly; encourage the faint-hearted; support the weak; be patient toward all.
15Ngamalkaterianau, wata kulnujeli madlentjandru kalala madlentji jinkinanto, a‐ai, milingeru ngumu pratjanaia mindrianau, ja ngankijiribamalianimai.
15See that no one returns evil for evil to anyone, but always follow after that which is good for one another and for all.
16Milingeru mankianau;
16Always rejoice.
17Milingeru ngatjianau;
17Pray without ceasing.
18Warupotuni jurakokanau; ngangau jenia Godaia jertapaterina nganai Christungu Jesungu jurangu.
18In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you.
19Jaola wata palimanau;
19Don’t quench the Spirit.
20Talpadakani jaura wata waka ngundranau;
20Don’t despise prophecies.
21Pratjana wontjanau; mina ngumu, jenia patanau;
21Test all things, and hold firmly that which is good.
22Wata baka pilki jinkianau;
22Abstain from every form of evil.
23Murlaia Goda muntali jurana warupotuni kulikiri ngankau, ja jurani jaola ja mungara ja palku madlentji pani ngananau Kaparaia ngaiananaia Jesuni Christuni tikanaia.
23May the God of peace himself sanctify you completely. May your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
24Wonki Nauja nganai, Nulia jurana karkai, Nulia jenia bakana ngankala nganai.
24He who calls you is faithful, who will also do it.
25Ngatata worajai, ngaianingundru ngatjianau!
25Brothers, pray for us.
26Mandurini jaura jinkianau ngatata pratjanani manatapana kulikirieli!
26Greet all the brothers with a holy kiss.
27Ngato jurangu Kaparani jaura morlalu kurai, jura ninapini dakani jaura ngatata pratjanani warapananto.
27I solemnly command you by the Lord that this letter be read to all the holy brothers.
28Ngaiananaia Kaparaia Jesuni Christuni manjula jurangunto nganaiatimai!
28The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
