Biblia Takatifu (Swahili): New Testament portions
1Ko ia ko kimautolu, ko e kaunga ngāue fakataha, ʻoku mau fakakolekole foki ke ʻoua naʻa mou maʻu tōnoa ʻae ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua.
1Basi, tukiwa wafanyakazi pamoja na Mungu, tunawasihi msikubali ile neema mliyopokea kutoka kwa Mungu ipotee bure.
2(He ʻoku pehē ʻe ia, “Kuo u ongoʻi koe ʻi he kuonga tuʻutuʻumālie, pea ʻi he ʻaho fakamoʻui kuo u tokoniʻi koe:” vakai, ko eni ʻae kuonga tuʻutuʻumālie: vakai, ko eni ʻae ʻaho ʻoe fakamoʻui.)
2Mungu asema hivi: “Wakati wa kufaa nimekusikiliza, wakati wa wokovu nikakusaidia.” Basi, sasa ndio wakati wa kufaa, sasa ndiyo siku ya wokovu!
3Ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha tūkiaʻanga ʻi ha meʻa ʻe taha, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa fakaongokovi ʻae ngāue:
3Kusudi tusiwe na lawama yoyote katika utumishi wetu, hatupendi kumwekea mtu yeyote kizuio chochote.
4Ka mau fakaongolelei atu ʻakimautolu ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, ʻo taau mo e kau faifekau ʻae ʻOtua, ʻi he faʻa kātaki, ʻi he ngaahi mamahi, ʻi he ngaahi masiva, ʻi he ngaahi fakamamahi lahi,
4Badala yake, tunajionyesha kuwa kweli watumishi wa Mungu kwa kila kitu: kwa uvumilivu mwingi wakati wa mateso, shida na taabu.
5ʻI he haha, ʻi he nofo fale fakapōpula, ʻi he maveuveu, ʻi he ngaahi ngāue mamafa, ʻi he faʻa leʻo, ʻi he faʻa ʻaukai;
5Tumepigwa, tumetiwa gerezani na kuzomewa hadharani; tumefanya kazi tukachoka; tumekesha na kukaa bila kula.
6ʻI he māʻoniʻoni, ʻi he ʻilo, ʻi he kātaki fuoloa, ʻi he angaʻofa, ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, ʻi he ʻofa taʻeloi,
6Tunajionyesha kuwa watumishi wa Mungu kwa usafi wa moyo, elimu, uvumilivu na wema; kwa Roho Mtakatifu, kwa upendo usio na unafiki,
7ʻI he lea ʻoe moʻoni, ʻi he mālohi ʻae ʻOtua, ʻi he mahafutau ʻoe māʻoniʻoni ʻi he nima toʻomataʻu pea ʻi he toʻohema,
7kwa ujumbe wa kweli na kwa nguvu ya Mungu. Uadilifu ndiyo silaha yetu upande wa kulia na upande wa kushoto.
8ʻI he fakaʻapaʻapa mo e taʻefakaʻapaʻapa, ʻi he ongokovi mo e ongolelei: ʻo hangē ko e kau kākā, ka ʻoku moʻoni;
8Tuko tayari kupata heshima na kudharauliwa, kulaumiwa na kusifiwa. Twadhaniwa kuwa waongo, kumbe twasema kweli;
9Hangē ko e taʻeʻilo, ka ʻoku ʻilo lahi; hangē ko e mate, pea ʻiloange, ʻoku tau moʻui; hangē ko e tautea, ka ʻoku ʻikai tāmateʻi;
9kama wasiojulikana, kumbe twajulikana kwa wote, kama waliokufa, lakini mwonavyo, sisi ni wazima kabisa.
10Hangē ko e loto mamahi, kamau fiefia maʻuaipē; hangē ko e masiva, ka ʻoku mau fakakoloaʻia ʻae tokolahi; hangē ko e taʻemaʻu-ha-meʻa, ka ʻoku maʻu ʻae meʻa kotoa pē.
10Ingawa tumeadhibiwa, hatukuuawa; ingawa tunayo huzuni, twafurahi daima; ingawa tu maskini hohehahe, lakini twatajirisha watu wengi; twaonekana kuwa watu tusio na chochote, kumbe tuna kila kitu.
11ʻAe kakai Kolinitō, ʻoku matoʻo homau ngutu kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku tupu ʻo lahi homau loto.
11Ndugu Wakorintho, tumezungumza nanyi kwa unyofu; mioyo yetu iko wazi kabisa.
12ʻOku ʻikai te mou ʻefihia ʻiate kimautolu, ka ʻoku mou ʻefihia ʻi he ʻofa ʻamoutolu pe.
12Kama mnaona kuna kizuizi chochote kile, kizuizi hicho kiko kwenu ninyi wenyewe, na si kwa upande wetu.
13Pea ko eni, ko hono totongi ʻi he meʻa ni, (ʻoku ou lea ʻo hangē ki heʻeku fānau) ke fakaʻataʻatā ʻakimoutolu foki.
13Sasa nasema nanyi kama watoto wangu, wekeni mioyo yenu wazi kama nasi tulivyofanya.
14ʻOua naʻa mou kau fakataha mo e kakai taʻetui: he ʻoku feohi fēfē ʻae māʻoniʻoni mo e taʻemāʻoniʻoni? Pea ʻoku feohi fēfē ʻae maama mo e poʻuli?
14Msiambatane na watu wasioamini. Je, wema na uovu vyapatana kweli? Mwanga na giza vyawezaje kukaa pamoja?
15Pea ʻoku kau taha fēfē ʻa Kalaisi mo Pileali? Pea ʻoku ʻinasi taha ʻi he hā ʻaia ʻoku tui mo e taʻetui?
15Kristo anawezaje kupatana na Shetani? Muumini ana uhusiano gani na asiyeamini?
16Pea ʻoku fai tatau ʻi he hā ʻae fale tapu ʻoe ʻOtua mo e ngaahi tamapua? He ko e fale tapu ʻakimoutolu ʻoe ʻOtua moʻui; ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻae ʻOtua, “Te u nofoʻia ʻakinautolu, ʻo ʻeveʻeva ʻiate kinautolu; pea ko honau ʻOtua au, pea ko hoku kakai ʻakinautolu.”
16Hekalu la Mungu lina uhusiano gani na sanamu za uongo? Maana sisi ni hekalu la Mungu aliye hai. Kama Mungu mwenyewe alivyosema: “Nitafanya makao yangu kwao, na kuishi kati yao; Nitakuwa Mungu wao, nao watakuwa watu wangu.”
17ʻOku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, “Ko ia mou haʻu meiate kinautolu, pea ke ʻataʻatā ʻakimoutolu, pea ʻoua naʻa ala ki he taʻemaʻa; pea te u maʻu ʻakimoutolu:”
17Kwa hiyo Bwana asema pia: “Ondokeni kati yao, mkajitenge nao, msiguse kitu najisi, nami nitawapokea.
18ʻOku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki Māfimafi, “Te u ʻiate kimoutolu ko e Tamai, pea ko hoku ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine ʻakimoutolu.”
18Mimi nitakuwa Baba yenu, nanyi mtakuwa watoto wangu, waume kwa wake, asema Bwana Mwenye Uwezo.”
