Biblia Takatifu (Swahili): New Testament portions
1But speak thou the things that become sound doctrine:
1Lakini wewe unapaswa kuhubiri mafundisho safi.
2That the aged men be sober, chaste, prudent, sound in faith, in love, in patience.
2Waambie wazee kwamba wanapaswa kuwa na kiasi, wawe na busara na wataratibu; wanapaswa kuwa timamu katika imani yao, upendo na uvumilivu.
3The aged women, in like manner, in holy attire, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teaching well:
3Hali kadhalika waambie wanawake wazee wawe na mwenendo wa uchaji wa Mungu; wasiwe wachongezi, au watumwa wa pombe. Wanapaswa kufundisha mambo mema,
4That they may teach the young women to be wise, to love their husbands, to love their children,
4ili wawazoeze kina mama vijana kuwapenda waume zao na watoto,
5To be discreet, chaste, sober, having a care of the house, gentle, obedient to their husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.
5wawe na kiasi na safi, waangalie vizuri mambo ya nyumbani, na wawatii waume zao, ili ujumbe wa Mungu usije ukadharauliwa.
6Young men, in like manner, exhort that they be sober.
6Kadhalika, wahimize vijana wawe na kiasi.
7In all things shew thyself an example of good works, in doctrine, in integrity, in gravity,
7Katika mambo yote wewe mwenyewe unapaswa kuwa mfano wa matendo mema. Uwe mnyofu na uwe na uzito katika mafundisho yako.
8The sound word that can not be blamed: that he, who is on the contrary part, may be afraid, having no evil to say of us.
8Maneno yako yasiwe na hitilafu yoyote ili adui zako waaibike wasipopata chochote kibaya cha kusema juu yetu.
9Exhort servants to be obedient to their masters, in all things pleasing, not gainsaying:
9Watumwa wanapaswa kuwatii wakuu wao na kuwapendeza katika mambo yote. Wasibishane nao,
10Not defrauding, but in all things shewing good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things:
10au kuiba vitu vyao. Badala yake wanapaswa kuonyesha kwamba wao ni wema na waaminifu daima, ili, kwa matendo yao yote, wayapatie sifa njema mafundisho juu ya Mungu, Mwokozi wetu.
11For the grace of God our Saviour hath appeared to all men;
11Maana neema ya Mungu imedhihirishwa kwa ajili ya wokovu wa watu wote.
12Instructing us, that, denying ungodliness and worldly desires, we should live soberly, and justly, and godly in this world,
12Neema hiyo yatufunza kuachana na uovu wote na tamaa za kidunia; tuwe na kiasi, tuishi maisha adili na ya kumcha Mungu katika ulimwengu huu wa sasa,
13Looking for the blessed hope and coming of the glory of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ,
13tukiwa tunangojea siku ile ya heri tunayoitumainia, wakati utakapotokea utukufu wa Mungu Mkuu na Mwokozi wetu Yesu Kristo.
14Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and might cleanse to himself a people acceptable, a pursuer of good works.
14Yeye alijitoa mwenyewe kwa ajili yetu ili atukomboe kutoka katika uovu wote na kutufanya watu safi walio wake yeye mwenyewe, watu walio na hamu ya kutenda mema.
15These things speak, and exhort and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
15Basi, fundisha mambo hayo na tumia mamlaka yako yote ukiwahimiza na kuwaonya wasikilizaji wako. Mtu yeyote na asikudharau.
