Bibiliya Yera (BYSB)

1 Pawulo wagizwe intumwa ya Kristo Yesu nk’uko Imana yabishatse, kandi nk’uko isezerano ry’ubugingo bubonerwa muri Kristo Yesu riri,

2 ndakwandikiye Timoteyo, umwana wanjye nkunda.

Ubuntu n’imbabazi n’amahoro bibe kuri wowe, biva ku Mana Data wa twese no kuri Kristo Yesu Umwami wacu.

Pawulo ahugurira Timoteyo gushikama mu byo kwizera

3 Imana nkorera nkurikije ba sogokuruza mfite umutima utancira urubanza, ni yo nshimira yuko nkwibuka ubudasiba uko nsenze ku manywa na nijoro.

4 Nibuka amarira yawe, ngakumbura kukureba ngo nuzure umunezero,

5 kuko nibutse kwizera kutaryarya kukurimo, kwabanje kuba muri nyogokuru Loyisi no muri nyoko Unike, kandi nzi neza yuko kukurimo nawe.

6 Ni cyo gituma nkwibutsa gusesa impano y’Imana ikurimo ngo yake, iyo waheshejwe no kurambikwaho ibiganza byanjye.

7 Kuko Imana itaduhaye umwuka w’ubwoba, ahubwo yaduhaye uw’imbaraga n’urukundo no kwirinda.

8 Nuko ntukagire isoni zo guhamya Umwami wacu cyangwa izanjye imbohe ye. Ahubwo ufatanye nanjye kurenganyirizwa ubutumwa bwiza, ufashijwe n’imbaraga z’Imana

9 yadukijije, ikaduhamagara guhamagara kwera itabitewe n’imirimo yacu, ahubwo ibitewe n’uko yabigambiriye ubwayo, no ku bw’ubuntu bwayo twaherewe muri Kristo Yesu uhereye kera kose,

10 ariko none bukaba bwarerekanywe no kuboneka k’Umukiza wacu Kristo Yesu, wahinduye urupfu ubusa akerekanisha ubugingo no kudapfa ubutumwa bwiza.

11 Ubwo butumwa ni bwo nashyiriweho kuba umubwiriza wabwo, n’intumwa n’umwigisha w’abanyamahanga.

12 Ni cyo gituma mbabazwa ntya nyamara singira isoni, kuko nzi uwo nizeye uwo ari we, kandi nzi neza yuko abasha kurinda ikibitsanyo namubikije kugeza kuri urya munsi.

13 Ujye ukomeza icyitegererezo cy’amagambo mazima wanyumvanye, ugikomeresha kwizera n’urukundo rubonerwa muri Kristo Yesu.

14 Ikibitsanyo cyiza wabikijwe, ukirindishe Umwuka Wera utubamo.

15 Uzi yuko abo muri Aziya bose banteye umugongo, muri abo ni Fugelo na Herumogene.

16 Umwami wacu agirire imbabazi abo kwa Onesiforo kuko yanduhuraga kenshi, kandi ntaragakorwa n’isoni z’umunyururu wanjye,

17 ahubwo ageze i Roma agira umwete wo kunshaka arambona.

18 Umwami amuhe kuzabona imbabazi z’Umwami kuri urya munsi. Ibyo yankoreye muri Efeso uko bingana, nta wukurusha kubimenya.

Pawulo ahugurira Timoteyo kwitanga amaramaje

1 Nuko rero mwana wanjye, ukomerere mu buntu bubonerwa muri Kristo Yesu,

2 kandi ibyo wanyumvanye imbere y’abahamya benshi, ubimenyeshe abantu bo kwizerwa bazashobora kubyigisha abandi.

3 Ujye ufatanya nanjye kwihanganira imibabaro, nk’uko bikwiriye umusirikare mwiza wa Kristo Yesu.

4 Nta waba umusirikare kandi ngo yishyire mu by’ubu bugingo, ngo abe akinejeje uwamwandikiye ubusirikare.

5 Kandi iyo umuntu ashatse kurushanwa mu mikino ntahabwa ikamba, keretse arushanijwe nk’uko bitegetswe.

6 Umuhinzi uhinga ni we ukwiriye kubanza kwenda ku mbuto.

7 Zirikana ibyo mvuze, kuko Umwami wacu azaguha ubwenge muri byose.

8 Ujye wibuka Yesu Kristo wakomotse mu rubyaro rwa Dawidi, akazuka mu bapfuye nk’uko ubutumwa nahawe buvuga,

9 ubwo ndenganyirizwa ndetse nkaboheshwa iminyururu nk’umugome, nyamara ijambo ry’Imana ryo ntiribohwa n’iminyururu.

10 Ni cyo gituma nihanganira byose ku bw’intore z’Imana, kugira ngo na zo zibone agakiza kabonerwa muri Kristo Yesu gafatanije n’ubwiza buhoraho.

11 Iri jambo ni iryo kwizerwa ngo “Niba twarapfanye na we tuzabanaho na we,

12 kandi nitwihangana tuzīmana na we, naho nitumwihakana na we azatwihakana,

13 kandi nubwo tutizera we ahora ari uwo kwizerwa, kuko atabasha kwivuguruza.”

Ibyerekeye kwirinda impaka

14 Ujye ubibutsa ibyo, ubihanangiririze imbere y’Imana ko bareka kurwanira amagambo kuko ari nta cyo bimaze, ahubwo bigusha abumva.

15 Ujye ugira umwete wo kwishyira Imana nk’ushimwa, umukozi udakwiriye kugira ipfunwe, ukwiriranya neza ijambo ry’ukuri.

16 Ariko amagambo y’amanjwe atari ay’Imana uyazibukire, kuko abayavuga bazarushaho gushayisha,

17 kandi ijambo ryabo rizaryana nk’igisebe cy’umufunzo. Muri abo ni Humenayo na Fileto,

18 kuko bayobye bakava mu kuri bavuga ko umuzuko wamaze kubaho, bakubika kwizera kwa bamwe.

19 Nyamara urufatiro rukomeye rw’Imana ruracyahagaze, rwanditsweho iki kimenyetso ngo “Uwiteka azi abe”, kandi ngo “Umuntu wese uvuga izina ry’Uwiteka ave mu bidatunganye.”

20 Mu nzu y’inyumba ntihabamo ibintu by’izahabu n’iby’ifeza gusa, ahubwo habamo n’iby’ibiti n’iby’ibumba, kandi bimwe babikoresha iby’icyubahiro, naho ibindi bakabikoresha ibiteye isoni.

21 Nuko rero umuntu niyiyeza akitandukanya n’ibidatunganye, azaba abaye ikintu cyo gukoreshwa iby’icyubahiro cyejejwe, kigirira nyiracyo umumaro kandi cyatunganirijwe imirimo myiza yose.

22 Nuko uhunge irari rya gisore, ahubwo ukurikize gukiranuka no kwizera n’urukundo n’amahoro, ufatanije n’abambaza Umwami wacu bafite imitima iboneye.

23 Nyamara ibibazo by’ubupfu n’iby’abaswa ntukabyemere, uzi nawe ko bibyara amahane.

24 Ariko umugaragu w’Umwami wacu ntakwiriye kuba umunyamahane, ahubwo akwiriye kugira ineza kuri bose, agakunda kwigisha, akihangana,

25 agahanisha ubugwaneza abamugisha impaka ngo ahari nibishoboka, Imana ibahe kwihana ngo bamenye ukuri,

26 basinduke bave mu mutego wa Satani wabafashe mpiri, babone gukora ibyo Imana ishaka.

Ubuhenebere buteye ubwoba bwo mu minsi y’imperuka

1 Umenye yuko mu minsi y’imperuka hazaza ibihe birushya,

2 kuko abantu bazaba bikunda, bakunda impiya, birarīra, bibona, batukana, batumvira ababyeyi babo, indashima, batari abera,

3 badakunda n’ababo, batūzura, babeshyerana, batirinda, bagira urugomo, badakunda ibyiza,

4 bagambana, ibyigenge, bikakaza, bakunda ibibanezeza aho gukunda Imana,

5 bafite ishusho yo kweraariko bahakana imbaraga zako. Abameze batyo ujye ubatera umugongo.

6 Kuko muri bo harimo abagabo bomboka mu mazu bakanyaga abagore batagira umutima, baremerewe n’ibyaha, batwarwa n’irari ry’uburyo bwinshi,

7 bahora biga ariko ntabwo babasha kugira ubwo bamenya ukuri.

8 Nk’uko Yane na Yambure barwanije Mose, ni ko n’abo bagabo barwanya ukuri. Abo ni abononekaye ubwenge badashimwa ku byo kwizera.

9 Ariko ntibazabasha kurengaho kuko ubupfu bwabo buzagaragarira abantu bose, nk’uko ubwa ba bandi na bwo bwagaragaye.

10 Ariko wowe ho wakurikijeneza inyigisho zanjye n’ingeso zanjye, n’imigambi no kwizera no kwiyumanganya, n’urukundo no kwihangana,

11 no kurenganywa kenshi no kubabazwa kenshi, n’ibyambereyeho muri Antiyokiya no muri Ikoniyo n’i Lusitira, n’ibyo nihanganiye byose ndenganywa, nyamara Umwami wacu akabinkiza byose.

12 Icyakora n’ubundi abashaka kujya bubaha Imana bose bari muri Kristo Yesu, bazarenganywa.

13 Kandi abantu babi n’abiyita uko batari bazarushaho kuba babi, bayobya bakayobywa.

14 Ariko wowe ho ugume mu byo wize ukabyizezwa kuko uzi uwakwigishije,

15 kandi uzi yuko uhereye mu buto bwawe wamenyaga ibyanditswe byera bibasha kukumenyesha ubwenge, bwo kukuzanira agakiza gaheshwa no kwizera Kristo Yesu.

16 Ibyanditswe byera byose byahumetswe n’Imana kandi bigira umumaro wo kwigisha umuntu, no kumwemeza ibyaha bye no kumutunganya, no kumuhanira gukiranuka

17 kugira ngo umuntu w’Imana abe ashyitse, afite ibimukwiriye byose ngo akore imirimo myiza yose.

1 Ndagutongerera mu maso y’Imana no mu ya Kristo Yesu uzacira ho iteka abazima n’abapfuye, ubwoazaboneka aje kwima ingoma ye.

2 Ubwirize abantu ijambo ry’Imana ugire umwete mu gihe kigukwiriye no mu kitagukwiriye, uhane, uteshe, uhugure ufite kwihangana kose no kwigisha,

3 kuko igihe kizaza batazihanganira inyigisho nzima, ahubwo kuko amatwi yabo azaba abarya yifuza kumva ibibanezeza, bazigwiriza abigisha bahuje n’irari ryabo,

4 kandi baziziba amatwi ngo batumva ukuri, bazayoba bakurikize imigani y’ibinyoma.

5 Ariko wowe ho wirinde muri byose, wemere kurengana, ukore umurimo w’umubwirizabutumwa bwiza, usohoze umurimo wawe wo kugabura iby’Imana.

Pawulo avuga iby’iherezo rye, asaba Timoteyo kumusura

6 Kuko jyeweho maze kumera nk’ibisukwa ku gicaniro, igihe cyo kugenda kwanjye gisohoye.

7 Narwanye intambara nziza, narangije urugendo, narinze ibyo kwizera.

8 Ibisigaye mbikiwe ikamba ryo gukiranuka, iryo Umwami wacu, umucamanza utabera azampa kuri urya munsi, nyamara si jye jyenyine, ahubwo ni abakunze kuzaboneka kwe bose.

9 Gira umwete wo kuza aho ndi vuba.

10 Dema yaransigiriye kuko akunze iby’iki gihe cya none, ajya i Tesalonike. Kiresikenti na we yagiye i Galatiya, naho Tito yagiye i Dalumatiya.

11 Luka ni we wenyine ukiri kumwe nanjye. Shaka Mariko umuzane, kuko angirira umumaro wo kunkorera. Kolo 4.10

12 Ariko Tukiko namaze kumwohereza muri Efeso.

13 Nuza uzazane umwitero nasize i Tirowa kwa Karupo n’ibitabo, ariko cyane cyane uzazane iby’impu.

14 Alekizanderi, umucuzi w’imiringa yangiriye inabi nyinshi. Umwami wacu azamwitura ibikwiriye ibyo yakoze.

15 Nawe umwirinde, kuko yarwanije amagambo yacu cyane.

16 Mu iburana ryanjye rya mbere nta wampagarikiye, ahubwo bose barampānye. Ntibakabibarweho!

17 Nyamara Umwami wacu yarampagarikiye arankomeza, kugira ngo ubutumwa bubwirizwe n’akanwa kanjye butagabanije, abanyamahanga bose babwumve. Nuko nkira akanwa k’intare.

18 Kandi Umwami wacu azankiza ibibi bangirira byose, andindire kugira ngo anjyane mu bwami bwe bwo mu ijuru. Icyubahiro kibe icye, iteka ryose, Amen.

19 Untahirize Purisikila na Akwila, n’abo kwa Onesiforo.

20 Erasito yagumye i Korinto, ariko Tirofimo namusize i Mileto arwaye.

21 Gira umwete wo kuza, igihe cy’imbeho kitarasohora. Ewubulo aragutashya, na Pudenti na Lino na Kilawudiya, na bene Data bose.

22 Umwami Yesu abane n’umutima wawe. Ubuntu bw’Imana bubane nawe.

1 Pawulo wagizwe intumwa ya Kristo Yesu, ku bw’itegeko ry’Imana Umukiza wacu na Kristo Yesu ari we byiringiro byacu,

2 ndakwandikiyeTimoteyo, umwana wanjye nyakuri nibyariye mu byo kwizera. Ubuntu n’imbabazi n’amahoro bibe kuri wowe, biva ku Mana Data wa twese no kuri Kristo Yesu Umwami wacu.

Umurimo wagenewe Timoteyo, ari muri Efeso

3 Ugume muri Efeso nk’uko nakwinginze ubwo najyaga i Makedoniya, kugira ngo wihanangirize bamwe kutigisha ukundi,

4 cyangwa kwita ku migani y’ibinyoma cyangwa amasekuruza atagira iherezo, bidafasha umurimo w’Imana wo kwizera ahubwo bizana impaka.

5 Ibyo mbibategekeye kugira ngo bagire urukundo ruva mu mutima uboneye kandi uticira urubanza, bagire no kwizera kutaryarya.

6 Ibyo bamwe babiteshutsemo biyobagiriza mu biganiro by’amanjwe,

7 bashaka kuba abigisha b’amategeko, nyamara batazi ibyo bavuga ibyo ari byo cyangwa ibyo bahamya babishegera.

8 Icyakora tuzi ko amategeko ari meza koko iyo umuntu ayagenjeje uko bikwiriye amategeko,

9 kandi tuzi ko amategeko atashyiriweho umukiranutsi, keretse abagome n’ibigande, n’abatubaha Imana n’abanyabyaha, n’abatari abera n’abatita ku by’Imana, n’abakubita ba se na ba nyina, n’abicanyi

10 n’abasambanyi n’abagabo bendana, n’abanyaga abantu bakabagura, n’ababeshyi n’abarahira ibinyoma, n’ibindi byose bidahura n’inyigisho nzima,

11 zihuje n’ubutumwa bwiza bw’ubwiza bw’Imana ihimbazwa, ubwo nahawe.

Pawulo ashimira Imana imbabazi yamugiriye

12 Ndashimira Kristo Yesu Umwami wacu wambashishije, yuko yatekereje ko ndi uwo kwizerwa, akangabira umurimo we

13 nubwo nabanje kuba umutukanyi n’urenganya n’umunyarugomo. Ariko narababariwe kuko nabikoze mu bujiji ntarizera;

14 kandi ubuntu bw’Umwami wacu bwarushijeho kunsagirizwa, bufatanije no kwizera n’urukundo rubonerwa muri Kristo Yesu.

15 Iri jambo ni iryo kwizerwa rikwiriye kwemerwa rwose, yuko Kristo Yesu yazanywe mu isi no gukiza abanyabyaha, muri bo ni jye w’imbere.

16 Ariko icyatumye mbabarirwa ni ukugira ngo Yesu Kristo yerekanire muri jye uw’imbere kwihangana kwe kose, ngo mbe icyitegererezo cy’abazamwizera bagahabwa ubugingo buhoraho.

17 Umwami nyir’ibihe byose udapf, kandi utaboneka, ari we Mana imwe yonyine, ihimbazwe kandi icyubahiro kibe icyayo iteka ryose, Amen.

18 Mwana wanjye Timoteyo, ndakwihanangiriza nkurikije ubuhanuzi bwa kera bwahanuye ibyawe, kugira ngo buduheshe kurwana intambara nziza,

19 ukomeje kwizera kandi ufite umutima uticira urubanza. Uwo mutima bamwe barawuretse bahinduka nk’inkuge imenetse ku byo kwizera.

20 Muri abo ni Humenayo na Alekizanderi, abo nahaye Satani kugira ngo babyigireho kudatuka Imana.

Ibyo gusabira abantu bose

1 Irya mbere ya byose ndaguhugurira kwingingira abantu bose, no kubasengera no kubasabira no kubashimira,

2 ariko cyane cyane abami n’abatware bose kugira ngo duhore mu mahoro tutabona ibyago, twubaha Imana kandi twitonda rwose.

3 Ibyo ni byo byiza byemerwa imbere y’Imana Umukiza wacu,

4 ishaka ko abantu bose bakizwa bakamenya ukuri.

5 Kuko hariho Imana imwe, kandi hariho Umuhuza umwe w’Imana n’abantu, na we ni umuntu, ari we Yesu Kristo

6 witangiye kuba incungu ya bose. Ibyo byahamijwe mu gihe cyabyo,

7 ari cyo cyatumye nshyirirwaho kuba umubwiriza n’intumwa (ndavuga ukuri, simbeshya) n’umwigisha wo kwigisha abanyamahanga kwizera n’ukuri.

8 Nuko ndashaka ko abagabo basenga hose barambuye amaboko yera, badafite umujinya kandi batagira impaka.

Inshingano y’abagore

9 Kandi n’abagore ni uko ndashaka ko bambara imyambaro ikwiriye, bakagira isoni birinda, kandi batirimbisha kuboha umusatsi, cyangwa izahabu cyangwa imaragarita, cyangwa imyenda y’igiciro cyinshi,

10 ahubwo birimbishishe imirimo y’ingeso nziza nk’uko bikwiriye abagore bavuga yuko bubaha Imana.

11 Umugore yigane ituza aganduke rwose,

12 kuko nanga ko umugore yigisha cyangwa ngo ategeke umugabo, ahubwo agire ituza

13 kuko Adamu ari we wabanje kuremwa nyuma hagakurikiraho Eva.

14 Kandi Adamu si we wayobejwe, ahubwo umugore ni we wayobejwe rwose, ahinduka umunyabicumuro.

15 Nyamara abagore bazakizwa mu ibyaranibakomeza kwizera, bakagira urukundo no kwera, bakirinda.

Inshingano y’abepisikopi n’abadiyakoni

1 Iri jambo ni iryo kwizerwa ngo “Umuntu nashaka kuba umwepisikopi, aba yifuje umurimo mwiza.”

2 Nuko umwepisikopi akwiriye kuba inyangamugayo, no kuba umugabo w’umugore umwe, abe udakunda ibisindisha wirinda, ugira gahunda mu kubaho kwe, ukunda gucumbikira abashyitsi, ufite ubwenge bwo kwigisha,

3 utari umunywi wa vino cyangwa umunyarukoni, ahubwo abe umugwaneza utarwana, utari umukunzi w’impiya,

4 utegeka neza abo mu rugo rwe, agatera abana be kumvira no kubaha rwose.

5 (Mbese utazi gutegeka abo mu rugo rwe yabasha ate kurinda Itorero ry’Imana?)

6 Kandi ntakwiriye kuba uhindutse Umukristo vuba, kugira ngo atikakaza akagwa, agacirwa ho iteka Satani yaciriwe ho.

7 Kandi akwiriye gushimwa neza n’abo hanze, kugira ngo adahinyuka akagwa mu mutego wa Satani.

8 Kandi n’abadiyakoni na bo ni uko: bakwiriye kuba abitonda, batari intereganya cyangwa abamenyereye vino nyinshi bakifuza indamu mbi,

9 ahubwo bakomeze ubwiru bwo kwizera bafite imitima itabacira urubanza.

10 Bakwiriye kubanza kugeragezwa, maze nibatabaho umugayo babone gukora umurimo w’ubudiyakoni.

11 N’abadiyakonikazina bo ni uko: babe abitonda, abatabeshyera abandi, abadakunda ibisindisha, bakiranuka muri byose.

12 Abadiyakoni babe abagabo b’umugore umwe, bategeka neza abana babo n’abo mu ngo zabo.

13 Kuko abakora neza uwo murimo w’ubudiyakoni bibonera umwanya w’icyubahiro mwiza, n’ubushizi bw’amanga bwinshi bwo kwizeraYesu Kristo.

14 Nkwandikiye ibyo, niringiye ko nzaza kugusūra vuba,

15 kandi mbikwandikiriye kugira ngo, nintinda, uzamenye ibikwiriye kugenzerezwa mu nzu y’Imana ari yo Torero ry’Imana ihoraho, ari na yo inkingi y’ukuri igushyigikiye.

16 Si ugushidikanya, ubwiru bw’ubumana burakomeye cyane: Imana kwerekanwa ifite umubiri, ikagaragara ko ari umukiranutsi mu mwuka, ikabonwa n’abamarayika, ikamamazwa mu banyamahanga, ikizerwa mu isi, ikazamurwa igahabwa ubwiza.

Ubuhakanyi bwo mu minsi y’imperuka

1 Ariko Umwuka avuga yeruye ati “Mu bihe bizaza bamwe bazagwa bave mu byizerwa, bīte ku myuka iyobya n’inyigisho z’abadayimoni”

2 bayobejwe n’uburyarya bw’abigisha b’abanyabinyoma, bafite inkovu z’ibyaha mu mitima yabo nk’iz’ubushye,

3 babuza kurongorana baziririza ibyo kurya Imana yaremye kugira ngo abizera bakamenya ukuri babirye bashima,

4 kuko ibyo Imana yaremye byose ari byiza, ntiharimo icyo gutabwa iyo cyakiranywe ishimwe,

5 kuko cyezwa n’ijambo ry’Imana no gusenga.

Ibyo gukiranukira gukora umurimo w’Imana

6 Niwibutsa bene Data ibyo, uzaba ubaye umugabura mwiza w’ibya Kristo Yesu utunzwe n’amagambo yo kwizera n’inyigisho nziza wakurikije.

7 Ariko imigani itari iy’Imana n’iy’abakecuru ntukayemere, ahubwo witoze kubaha Imana

8 kuko kwitoza k’umubiri kugira umumaro kuri bike, naho kubaha Imana kukagira umumaro kuri byose, kuko gufite isezerano ry’ubugingo bwa none n’ubuzaza na bwo.

9 Iryo jambo ni iryo kwizerwa kandi rikwiriye kwemerwa rwose,

10 kuko igituma tugoka tukarwana ari uko twiringiye Imana ihoraho, ari yo Mukiza w’abantu bose ariko cyane cyane w’abizera.

11 Ujye utegeka ibyo kandi ubyigishe.

12 Ntihakagire uhinyura ubusore bwawe, ahubwo ube icyitegererezo cy’abizera ku byo uvuga, no ku ngeso zawe no ku rukundo, no ku kwizera no ku mutima uboneye.

13 Kugeza aho nzazira, ujye ugira umwete wo gusoma no guhugura no kwigisha.

14 Ntukirengagize impano ikurimo, iyo waheshejwe n’ibyahanuwe ubwo warambikwagaho ibiganza by’abakuru.

15 Ibyo ujye ubizirikana kandi abe ari byo uhugukiramo, kugira ngo kujya mbere kwawe kugaragarire bose.

16 Wirinde ku bwawe no ku nyigisho wigisha. Uzikomeze kuko nugira utyo uzikizanya n’abakumva.

Ibyo guhugurana ubugwaneza

1 Ntugacyahe umukuru ahubwo umuhugure nka so n’abasore ubahugure nka bene so,

2 abagore bakuru ubahugure nka ba nyoko, n’abagore bakiri bato n’abakobwa ubahugure nka bashiki bawe, ufite umutima utunganye rwose.

Ibyerekeye abapfakazi

3 Wubahe abapfakazi bari abapfakazi by’ukuri.

4 Ariko umupfakazi niba afite abana cyangwa abuzukuru, babanze kwiga kubaha abo mu muryango wabo no kwitura ababyeyi babo ibibakwiriye, kuko ibyo ari byo bishimwa imbere y’Imana.

5 Umupfakazi by’ukuri usigaye wenyine yiringira Imana, akomeza kwinginga no gusenga ku manywa na nijoro,

6 ariko uwidamararira aba apfuye ahagaze.

7 Ubategeke ibyo kugira ngo batabaho umugayo.

8 Ariko niba umuntu adatunga abe cyane cyane abo mu rugo rwe, aba yihakanye ibyizerwa, kandi aba abaye mubi hanyuma y’utizera.

9 Ntihakagire umupfakazi wandikwa, keretse amaze imyaka mirongo itandatu avutse akaba yarashyingiwe umugabo umwe gusa,

10 agashimirwa imirimo myiza: niba yarareraga abana, yaracumbikiraga abashyitsi, yarozaga ibirenge by’abera, yarafashaga abababaye, agashishikarira gukurikiza imirimo myiza yose.

11 Ariko abapfakazi bato ntukemereko bandikwa, kuko iyo bamaze kwidamararira baharika Kristo bakifuza gucyurwa,

12 bakagibwaho n’urubanza kuko bavuye mu isezerano ryabo rya mbere.

13 Kandi uretse ibyo, biga no kugira ubute, bakagenda imihana; nyamara si abanyabute gusa, ahubwo kandi ni n’abanyamazimwe na ba kazitereyemo, bavuga ibidakwiriye.

14 Ni cyo gituma nshaka ko abapfakazi bato bashyingirwa, bakabyara abana, bagategeka ingo zabo, ntibahe abanzi urwitwazo rwo kudutuka;

15 kuko n’ubu bamwe bamaze guteshuka inzira, ngo bakurikize Satani.

16 Nihagira uwizera w’umugabo cyangwa w’umugore ufite indushyi z’abapfakazi, abafashe, kugira ngo Itorero ritaremererwa, ahubwo ribone uko rifasha abapfakazi nyakuri.

Abakuru b’Itorero, n’inama Pawulo agira Timoteyo

17 Abakuru b’Itorero batwara neza batekerezwe ko bakwiriye guhabwa icyubahiro incuro ebyiri, ariko cyane cyane abarushywa no kuvuga ijambo ry’Imana no kwigisha,

18 kuko ibyanditswe bivuga ngo “Ntugahambire umunwa w’inka ihonyōra”, kandi ngo “Umukozi akwiriye guhembwa.”

19 Ntukemere ikirego ku mukuru hatariho abagabo babiri cyangwa batatu.

20 Abakora ibyaha ubahanire mu maso ya bose, kugira ngo abandi na bo batinye.

21 Ndakwihanangiririza imbere y’Imana na Yesu Kristo n’abamarayika batoranijwe, kugira ngo witondere ibyo udaca urw’umwe cyangwa ngo ugire ubwo uca urwa kibera.

22 Ntukihutire kugira uwo urambikaho ibiganza kandi ntugafatanye n’ibyaha by’abandi, ahubwo wirindire kuba intungane.

23 Uhereye none reka kunywa amazi gusa, ahubwo unywe vino nke ku bw’inda yawe kuko urwaragura.

24 Ibyaha by’abantu bamwe bigaragara hakiri kare, bikabakururira mu rubanza, naho iby’abandi bizagaragara hanyuma.

Imbuzi n’inama zitari zimwe

3 Nihagira uwigisha ukundi ntiyemere amagambo mazima y’Umwami wacu Yesu Kristo, n’ibyigisho bihura no kubaha Imana,

4 aba yikakarije kwihimbaza ari nta cyo azi, ahubwo ashishikazwa no kubaza ibibazo, akagira n’intambara z’amagambo zivamo ishyari n’intonganya, n’ibitutsi no gukeka ibibi,

5 n’impaka z’abantu bononekaye ubwenge bakamyemo ukuri, bibwira yuko kubaha Imana ari inzira yo kubona indamu.

6 Icyakora koko kubaha Imana iyo gufatanije no kugira umutima unyuzwe kuvamo inyungu nyinshi,

7 kuko ari nta cyo twazanye mu isi kandi nta cyo tuzabasha kuyivanamo.

8 Ariko ubwo dufite ibyo kurya n’imyambaro biduhagije tunyurwe na byo,

9 kuko abifuza kuba abatunzi bagwa mu moshya no mu mutego, no mu irari ryinshi ry’ubupfu ryangiza, rikaroha abantu mu bibahenebereza bikabarimbuza.

10 Kuko gukunda impiya ari umuzi w’ibibi byose, hariho abantu bamwe bazirarikiye barayoba, bava mu byo kwizera bihandisha imibabaro myinshi.

11 Ariko wowe ho muntu w’Imana ujye uhunga ibyo, ahubwo ukurikize gukiranuka, kubaha Imana, kwizera, urukundo, kwihangana n’ubugwaneza.

12 Ujye urwana intambara nziza yo kwizera usingire ubugingo buhoraho, ubwo wahamagariwe ukabwaturira kwatura kwiza imbere y’abahamya benshi.

13 Ndakwihanangiririza mu maso y’Imana ibeshaho byose, no mu maso ya Kristo Yesu wahamije kwatura kwiza imbere ya Pontiyo Pilato,

14 witondere itegeko, ntugire ikizinga habe n’umugayo, kugeza ku kuboneka k’Umwami wacu Yesu Kristo,

15 kuzerekanwa mu gihe cyako n’Iyo ifite ubutware yonyine ihiriwe, ari yo Mwami w’abami n’Umutware utwara abatware.

16 Ni yo yonyine ifite kudapfa, iba mu mucyo utegerwa: nta muntu wigeze kuyireba kandi nta wabasha kuyireba. Icyubahiro n’ubutware budashira bibe ibyayo, Amen.

17 Wihanangirize abatunzi bo mu by’iki gihe, kugira ngo be kwibona cyangwa kwiringira ubutunzi butari ubwo kwizigirwa, ahubwo biringire Imana iduha byose itimana ngo tubinezererwe,

19 bibikire ubutunzi buzaba urufatiro rwiza mu gihe kizaza, kugira ngo babone uko basingira ubugingo nyakuri.

20 Timoteyo we, ujye urinda icyo wagabiwe uzibukire amagambo adakwiriye kandi atagira umumaro, n’ingirwabwenge zirwanya iby’Imana.

21 Hariho abantu bivuga ko babufite, bikaba byarabateye kuyoba bakava mu byo kwizerwa.

Ubuntu bubane namwe.
