1 Timotheo 5
Biblia Takatifu (Swahili): New Testament portions
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Usimkemee mtu mzee, bali msihi kama vile angekuwa baba yako. Watendee vijana kama ndugu zako,
1ʻOua naʻa ke valoki kakaha ki ha motuʻa, kae fakakolekolea, ʻo hangē ki ha tamai; pea ki he kau talavou ʻo taau mo e ngaahi kāinga;
2wanawake wazee kama mama yako, na wasichana kama dada zako, kwa usafi wote.
2Lea ki he kau finemātuʻa ʻo taau mo e faʻē; mo e kau finemui ʻo taau mo e ngaahi tuofefine, ʻi he angamaʻa kotoa pē.
3Waheshimu wanawake wajane walio wajane kweli.
3Tauhi ki he kau fefine kuo mate honau husepāniti, ʻakinautolu ʻoku masiva moʻoni.
4Lakini mjane aliye na watoto au wajukuu, hao wanapaswa kujifunza kutimiza wajibu wao wa kidini kwa jamaa zao wenyewe na hivyo kuwalipa wazazi wao na wazee wao, kwani hilo ni jambo la kupendeza mbele ya Mungu.
4Pea kapau ʻoku ai ha fefine kuo mate hono husepāniti ʻoku ai ʻene fānau pe mokopuna, tuku ke nau fuofua fakahā ʻenau anga fakalotu ʻi ʻapi, pea totongi lelei ki heʻenau mātuʻa: he ʻoku lelei pea mālie ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.
5Mwanamke mjane kweli, asiye na mtu wa kumsaidia, amemwekea Mungu tumaini lake na huendelea kusali na kumwomba msaada usiku na mchana.
5Pea ko eni, ko e fefine kuo mate hono husepāniti, pea paea moʻoni, ʻoku falala ia ki he ʻOtua, pea fai maʻu pe ʻene kole tāumaʻu mo e lotu ʻi he pō mo e ʻaho.
6Lakini mwanamke ambaye huishi maisha ya anasa, huyo amekufa, ingawa yu hai.
6Ka ko ia ʻoku moʻui ki he fiemālie fakakakano, ʻoku mate ia ʻi he lolotonga ʻene moʻui.
7Wape maagizo haya, wasije wakawa na lawama.
7Pea ko e ngaahi meʻa ni ke ke fekauʻaki koeʻuhi ke nau taʻehalaia.
8Lakini kama mtu hawatunzi watu wa jamaa yake, hasa wale wa nyumbani kwake, basi, mtu huyo ameikana imani, na ni mbaya zaidi kuliko mtu asiyeamini.
8He kapau ʻoku ʻikai ke tokonaki ʻe ha tokotaha ki hono kāinga, pea kiate kinautolu tonu ʻi hono fale, kuo siʻaki ʻe ia ʻae lotu, pea lahi hake ʻene kovi ʻaʻana ʻiate ia ʻoku taʻelotu.
9Usimtie katika orodha ya wajane, mjane yeyote ambaye hajatimiza miaka sitini. Tena awe amepata kuolewa mara moja tu,
9Ke ʻoua naʻa fili ki he fakataha ha fefine kuo mate hono husepāniti ʻoku teʻeki ai onongofulu taʻu ʻene motuʻa, naʻe mali ia ki he tangata pe taha,
10na awe mwenye sifa nzuri: aliyewalea watoto wake vizuri, aliyewakaribisha wageni nyumbani kwake, aliyewaosha miguu watu wa Mungu, aliyewasaidia watu wenye taabu, na aliyejitolea kufanya mambo mema.
10Kuo fakaongolelei ia ʻi he ngaahi ngaue lelei; ʻo kapau naʻa ne tauhi fānau ʻo kapau naʻa ne fakaafe ʻae kakai fononga, kapau naʻa ne fufulu ʻae vaʻe ʻoe kāinga māʻoniʻoni, kapau naʻa ne tokoni ki he kakai mahaki, kapau naʻa ne faʻa fai ʻae ngaahi ngaue lelei kotoa pē
11Usiwaandikishe wajane vijana, kwani kama tamaa zao za maumbile zikizidi kuwa na nguvu zaidi kuliko kujitolea kwao kwa Kristo watataka kuolewa tena,
11Kae tuku pe ʻae kau finemui kuo mate honau husepāniti; he ʻoka nau ka taʻeanganofo kia Kalaisi, pea te nau fie mali;
12na wataonekana kukosa uaminifu kuhusu ahadi yao ya pale awali.
12ʻO nau halaia ai, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau liʻaki ʻenau fuofua tui.
13Wajane kama hao huanza kupoteza wakati wao wakizurura nyumba hata nyumba; tena ubaya zaidi ni kwamba huanza kuwasengenya watu, na kujitia katika mambo ya watu wengine, huku wakisema mambo ambayo hawangepaswa kusema.
13Kaeʻumaʻā ʻoku nau fai fakapikopiko, ʻo feʻaluʻaki fano pe ʻi he fale ki he fale; pea ʻikai ngata ʻi he fakapikopiko, ka koe kau fakalanga lau foki ʻo kaunoa, ʻonau lea ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ʻikai totonu.
14Kwa hiyo ningependelea wajane vijana waolewe, wapate watoto na kutunza nyumba zao ili adui zetu wasipewe nafasi ya kusema mambo maovu juu yetu.
14Ko ia ko hoku loto ke mali ʻae kau finemui, pea fānau, mo tauhi ʻae fale, pea ʻoua naʻa ai ha tuʻunga ki he lea manuki ʻoe fili.
15Kwa maana wajane wengine wamekwisha potoka na kumfuata Shetani.
15He kuo afe ʻeni ʻae niʻihi ʻo muimui ʻia Sētane.
16Lakini kama mama Mkristo anao wajane katika jamaa yake, yeye anapaswa kuwatunza na si kuliachilia kanisa mzigo huo, ili kanisa liweze kuwatunza wajane wale waliobaki peke yao kabisa.
16Kapau ʻoku kāinga ha tangata pe ha fefine ʻoku tui, ki ha kau fefine kuo mate honau husepāniti, tuku ke nau tauhi ʻakinautolu, kaeʻoua naʻa fakamāfasia
17Wazee wanaowaongoza watu vizuri wanastahili kupata riziki maradufu, hasa wale wanaofanya bidii katika kuhubiri na kufundisha.
17ʻIlonga ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻoku pule lelei, ke ʻatu kiate kinautolu ʻae fakaʻapaʻapa lahi, kae lahi hake kiate kinautolu ʻoku ngaue ʻi he folofola mo e akonaki.
18Maana Maandiko Matakatifu yasema: “Usimfunge ng'ombe kinywa anapopura nafaka.” na tena “Mfanyakazi astahili malipo yake.”
18He ʻoku pehē ʻae tohi, “ʻOua naʻa ke nonoʻo ʻae ngutu ʻoe pulu ʻoku ne molomoloki ʻae uite.” Pea, “ʻOku taau mo e tangata ngaue hano tauhi.”
19Usikubali kupokea mashtaka dhidi ya mzee yasipowakilishwa na mashahidi wawili au watatu.
19ʻOua naʻa ke tali ha fakaʻilo kovi ki ha motuʻa, ka ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fakamoʻoni ʻe toko ua, pe toko tolu.
20Wale wanaotenda dhambi waonye hadharani, ili wengine wapate kuogopa.
20Ko kinautolu ʻoku fai angahala, valoki fakahā pe, ke manavahē ai ʻae niʻihi.
21Nakuamuru mbele ya Mungu, mbele ya Kristo Yesu, na mbele ya malaika watakatifu uyazingatie maagizo haya bila kuacha hata moja, wala kumpendelea mtu yeyote katika kila unachotenda.
21ʻOku ou fekau ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua, mo e ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, mo e kau ʻāngelo kuo fili, ke ke tokanga ki he ngaahi meʻa ni, ʻo taʻefilifilimānako ki ha taha ʻae taha ʻi he filifilimānako.
22Usiharakishe kumwekea mtu yeyote mikono kwa ajili ya kumtumikia Bwana. Usishiriki dhambi za wengine; jiweke katika hali safi.
22ʻOua naʻa ke hilifaki nima fakavave ki ha tangata ʻe tokotaha, pea ʻoua naʻa ke kau ki he angahala ʻoe kakai: ke ke tauhi koe ke ke maʻa.
23Usinywe maji tu, bali unywe divai kidogo kwa ajili ya tumbo lako, kwani unaugua mara kwa mara.
23ʻOua naʻa ke kei inu vai pe , ka ke ʻai ʻae uaine siʻi, telia ho fatu mo hoʻo faʻa mahamahaki.
24Dhambi za watu wengine huonekana waziwazi, nazo zawatangulia kwenye hukumu; lakini dhambi za wengine huonekana tu baadaye.
24ʻOku tomuʻa hā ʻae angahala ʻae kakai niʻihi, ʻo muʻomuʻa ki he fakamaau; ka ʻoku muimui pe ʻi he niʻihi.
25Vivyo hivyo, matendo mema huonekana waziwazi, na hata yale ambayo si dhahiri hayawezi kufichika.
25Pea ʻoku pehē foki ʻoku tomuʻa hā mai ʻae ngaahi ngaue lelei ʻae niʻihi; pea ko ia ʻoku ʻikai pehē, ʻe ʻikai faʻa fufū ia.
