Biblia Takatifu (Swahili): New Testament portions
1Πᾶσα ψυχὴ ἐξουσίαις ὑπερεχούσαις ὑποτασσέσθω· οὐ γάρ ἐστιν ἐξουσία εἰ μὴ ἀπὸ Θεοῦ, αἱ δὲ οὖσαι ἐξουσίαι ὑπὸ τοῦ Θεοῦ τεταγμέναι εἰσίν.
1Kila mtu anapaswa kuwatii wenye mamlaka katika serikali; maana mamlaka yote hutoka kwa Mungu; nao wenye mamlaka wamewekwa na Mungu.
2Ὥστε ὁ ἀντιτασσόμενος τῇ ἐξουσίᾳ, τῇ τοῦ Θεοῦ διαταγῇ ἀνθέστηκεν· οἱ δὲ ἀνθεστηκότες ἑαυτοῖς κρίμα λήψονται.
2Anayepinga mamlaka ya viongozi anapinga agizo la Mungu; nao wafanyao hivyo wanajiletea hukumu wenyewe,
3Οἱ γὰρ ἄρχοντες οὐκ εἰσὶ φόβος τῶν ἀγαθῶν ἔργων, ἀλλὰ τῶν κακῶν. Θέλεις δὲ μὴ φοβεῖσθαι τὴν ἐξουσίαν; Τὸ ἀγαθὸν ποίει, καὶ ἕξεις ἔπαινον ἐξ αὐτῆς·
3Maana, watawala hawasababishi hofu kwa watu wema, ila kwa watu wabaya. Basi, wataka usimwogope mtu mwenye mamlaka? Fanya mema naye atakusifu;
4Θεοῦ γὰρ διάκονός ἐστί σοι εἰς τὸ ἀγαθόν. Ἐὰν δὲ τὸ κακὸν ποιῇς, φοβοῦ· οὐ γὰρ εἰκῇ τὴν μάχαιραν φορεῖ· Θεοῦ γὰρ διάκονός ἐστιν, ἔκδικος εἰς ὀργὴν τῷ τὸ κακὸν πράσσοντι.
4maana yeye ni mtumishi wa Mungu anayefanya kazi kwa faida yako. Lakini ukifanya mabaya, basi, huna budi kumwogopa, maana anao kweli uwezo wa kutoa adhabu. Yeye ni mtumishi wa Mungu na huitekeleza ghadhabu ya Mungu kwao watendao maovu.
5Διὸ ἀνάγκη ὑποτάσσεσθαι, οὐ μόνον διὰ τὴν ὀργήν, ἀλλὰ καὶ διὰ τὴν συνείδησιν.
5Kwa hiyo ni lazima kuwatii wenye mamlaka, si tu kwa sababu ya kuogopa ghadhabu ya Mungu, bali pia kwa sababu dhamiri inadai hivyo.
6Διὰ τοῦτο γὰρ καὶ φόρους τελεῖτε· λειτουργοὶ γὰρ Θεοῦ εἰσιν, εἰς αὐτὸ τοῦτο προσκαρτεροῦντες.
6Kwa sababu hiyohiyo ninyi hulipa kodi; maana viongozi hao humtumikia Mungu ikiwa wanatimiza wajibu wao.
7Ἀπόδοτε οὖν πᾶσι τὰς ὀφειλάς· τῷ τὸν φόρον τὸν φόρον· τῷ τὸ τέλος τὸ τέλος· τῷ τὸν φόβον τὸν φόβον· τῷ τὴν τιμὴν τὴν τιμήν.
7Mpeni kila mtu haki yake; mtu wa ushuru, ushuru; wa kodi, kodi; na astahiliye heshima, heshima.
8Μηδενὶ μηδὲν ὀφείλετε, εἰ μὴ τὸ ἀγαπᾷν ἀλλήλους· ὁ γὰρ ἀγαπῶν τὸν ἕτερον, νόμον πεπλήρωκε.
8Msiwe na deni kwa mtu yeyote, isipokuwa tu deni la kupendana. Ampendaye jirani yake ameitekeleza Sheria.
9Τὸ γάρ, Οὐ μοιχεύσεις, οὐ φονεύσεις, οὐ κλέψεις, οὐ ψευδομαρτυρήσεις, οὐκ ἐπιθυμήσεις, καὶ εἴ τις ἑτέρα ἐντολή, ἐν τούτῳ τῷ λόγῳ ἀνακεφαλαιοῦται, ἐν τῷ, Ἀγαπήσεις τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς ἑαυτόν.
9Maana, amri hizi: “Usizini; Usiue; Usitamani;” na nyingine zote, zimo katika amri hii moja: “Mpende jirani yako kama unavyojipenda mwenyewe.”
10Ἡ ἀγάπη τῷ πλησίον κακὸν οὐκ ἐργάζεται· πλήρωμα οὖν νόμου ἡ ἀγάπη.
10Ampendaye jirani yake hamtendei vibaya. Basi, kwa mapendo Sheria yote hutimizwa.
11Καὶ τοῦτο, εἰδότες τὸν καιρόν, ὅτι ὥρα ἡμᾶς ἤδη ἐξ ὕπνου ἐγερθῆναι· νῦν γὰρ ἐγγύτερον ἡμῶν ἡ σωτηρία ἢ ὅτε ἐπιστεύσαμεν.
11Zaidi ya hayo, ninyi mnajua tumo katika wakati gani: sasa ndio wakati wa kuamka usingizini; naam, wokovu wetu u karibu zaidi sasa kuliko wakati ule tulipoanza kuamini.
12Ἡ νὺξ προέκοψεν, ἡ δὲ ἡμέρα ἤγγικεν· ἀποθώμεθα οὖν τὰ ἔργα τοῦ σκότους, καὶ ἐνδυσώμεθα τὰ ὅπλα τοῦ φωτός.
12Usiku unakwisha na mchana unakaribia. Basi, tutupilie mbali mambo yote ya giza, tukajitwalie silaha za mwanga.
13Ὡς ἐν ἡμέρᾳ, εὐσχημόνως περιπατήσωμεν, μὴ κώμοις καὶ μέθαις, μὴ κοίταις καὶ ἀσελγείαις, μὴ ἔριδι καὶ ζήλῳ.
13Mwenendo wetu uwe wa adabu kama inavyostahili wakati wa mchana; tusiwe na ulafi na ulevi, uchafu na uasherati, ugomvi na wivu.
14Ἀλλ᾿ ἐνδύσασθε τὸν Κύριον Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν, καὶ τῆς σαρκὸς πρόνοιαν μὴ ποιεῖσθε, εἰς ἐπιθυμίας.
14Bwana Yesu Kristo awe vazi lenu; msishughulikie tena tamaa zenu za maumbile na kuziridhisha.
