1Ompi' omea, uma mingki' ki'uki' -kokoi ba nto'uma mpu'u eo karataa Pue'.
1But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that aught be written unto you.
2Apa' ni'inca moto ompi': hewa karataa topanako ngkabengia, wae wo'o mpai' Eo Karataa Pue', konce mpai' ihi' dunia' nakaratai.
2For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
3Rata mpai' tempo-na, tauna mpo'uli': "Lompe' moto katuwu' -ta, uma ria to tapoka'eka'." Ntaa' we'i, nto'u toe-midi kanarumpa' -ra silaka-e! Tohe'e mpai' jadi' ncorobaa, hewa pontodohaka tobine to neo' mo'ana'. Uma ria ohea-ra mpasalewa huku' -ra.
3When they are saying, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall in no wise escape.
4Aga koi', ompi', uma-koi hi rala kabengia-na. Uma-koi mpai' konce hi eo karataa Pue' Yesus, hewa hi karataa topanako.
4But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief:
5Mobaja-mi nono-ni omea, mo'ingku-koi hewa tauna to momako' hi eo-na. Uma-ta hewa tauna to mpobabehi gau' to dada'a hi rala kabengia-na.
5for ye are all sons of light, and sons of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness;
6Jadi', mo'inga' -inga' -ta pai' mpakanoto nono-ta. Neo' -ta leta' hewa tauna to hi rala kabengia-na-pidi.
6so then let us not sleep, as do the rest, but let us watch and be sober.
7Apa' tauna to turu pai' malangu, turu pai' malangu hi bengi-na.
7For they that sleep sleep in the night: and they that are drunken are drunken in the night.
8Tapi' kita' toi-e, tauna to hi rala kabajaa-na. Toe pai' kana tapakanoto nono-ta. Kana tapomotede' mpu'u pepangala' -ta hi Pue' pai' ahi' -ta hi doo, bona moroho-ta hewa tantara to mpobaju baju ahe'. Kana ncarumaka-ta Alata'ala, kanawai' -nata kalompea' hi eo mpeno-na, bona moroho-ta hewa tantara to mosongkoi songko ahe'.
8But let us, since we are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.
9Kana tapakanoto nono-ta, apa' Alata'ala uma mpelihi-ta bona mporata roe-na. Napelihi-tale bona nahore-ta ngkai huku' jeko' -ta pai' nawai' -ta kalompea' sabana petolo' Pue' -ta Yesus Kristus.
9For God appointed us not into wrath, but unto the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
10Yesus Kristus mate mpotolo' -ta, bona ane rata-ipi mpai', tuwu' hangkaa-ngkania hante Hi'a-tamo, ba tuwu' -ta-pidi nto'u toe ba mpolia' mate-tamo.
10who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
11Toe-mi ompi', mome'apui-koi, pai' momerohoi mponono-mokoi, hewa to nibabehi-mi toe-e lau.
11Wherefore exhort one another, and build each other up, even as also ye do.
12Ompi' -ompi', kiperapi' bona nibila' -ra to mpokamu bago Pue' hi laintongo' -ni, apa' hira' to jadi' totu'a-ni hi rala Pue' pai' to mpoparesai' -koi.
12But we beseech you, brethren, to know them that labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;
13Bila' pai' pengkorui mpu'u-ra, pai' poka'ahi' -ra sabana pobago-ra toe. Tuwu' hintuwu' hadua bo hadua.
13and to esteem them exceeding highly in love for their work's sake. Be at peace among yourselves.
14Ompi', kiperapi' bona niparesai' -ra-rawo to lose mobago. Apui-ra to mere' nono-ra. Pe'inte' -ra to lente pepangala' -ra. Mosabara hi hawe'ea tauna.
14And we exhort you, brethren, admonish the disorderly, encourage the fainthearted, support the weak, be longsuffering toward all.
15Ane ria to mogau' dada'a hi kita', neo' tapehawai hante gau' to dada'a wo'o. Agina-pi tababehi oa' to lompe' hi doo-ta pai' hi hawe'ea tauna.
15See that none render unto any one evil for evil; but always follow after that which is good, one toward another, and toward all.
16Kana goe' ncuu-ta,
16Rejoice always;
17tida mosampaya,
17pray without ceasing;
18pai' mpo'uli' tarima kasi hi Alata'ala nau' ba napa to jadi', apa' toe-mi konoa Alata'ala hi kita' to mosidai' hante Kristus Yesus.
18in everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus to you-ward.
19Neo' nilawa' pobago Inoha' Tomoroli'.
19Quench not the Spirit;
20Neo' uma nisaile' lolita tauna ane mpohowa' -ra Lolita Alata'ala.
20despise not prophesyings;
21Pekiri lompe' butu mela-na, niponciloi ba ngkai Alata'ala mpu'u-di ba bela-di, pai' kakamu to lompe'.
21prove all things; hold fast that which is good;
22Pelelii' hawe'ea kehi to dada'a.
22abstain from every form of evil.
23Mekakae-a hi Alata'ala to mpowai' -ta kalompea' tuwu', kuperapi' bona napakaroli' kehi-ni, duu' -na moroli' mpu'u-koi. Kuperapi' bona napewili' -koi, lompe' woto-ni lompe' nono ba kao' -ni, bona uma ria kasalaia' -ni nau' hangkedi' ane rata nculii' -ipi Pue' -ta Yesus Kristus.
23And the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved entire, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
24Alata'ala mpokio' -ta mpotuku' -i. Jadi', Hi'a wo'o-wadi to mpopadupa' hawe'ea tohe'e, apa' napadupa' oa' janci-na.
24Faithful is he that calleth you, who will also do it.
25Ompi' -ompi', kiperapi' bona niposampayai wo'o-ka-kaiwo.
25Brethren, pray for us.
26Parata-kaka-kaiwo tabe-kai pai' ahi' -kai hi hawe'ea ompi' hi rala Pue' Yesus to hi retu-ra.
26Salute all the brethren with a holy kiss.
27Hante kuasa to nawai' -ka Pue', kuperapi' bona sura toi nibasa hi nyanyoa hawe'ea ompi' hampepangalaa' to hi retu-ra.
27I adjure you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the brethren.
28Pue' -ta Yesus Kristus mpogane' -koi.
28The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
