I Timothy 5

Aza mamely mafy loatra ny anti-panahy, fa anaro toy ny ray izy, ny tanora fanahy toy ny rahalahy,

Rebuke not an elder, but intreat him as a father; and the younger men as brethren;

ny vehivavy anti-panahy toy ny reny, ny tanora fanahy toy ny anabavy, amin'ny fahadiovana rehetra.

The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity.

Omeo voninahitra ny mpitondratena izay efa mpitondratena tokoa.

Honour widows that are widows indeed.

Fa raha misy mpitondratena manana zanaka na zafy, aoka ireo hianatra aloha haneho izay toe-panahy araka an'Andriamanitra amin'ny ao an-tranony ka hamaly soa ny rainy aman-dreniny; fa izany no ankasitrahana eo anatrehan'Andriamanitra.

But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to shew piety at home, and to requite their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God.

Fa izay efa mpitondratena tokoa ka irery tena dia efa manantena an'Andriamanitra ka maharitra amin'ny fangatahana sy ny fivavahana andro aman'alina

Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, trusteth in God, and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day.

Fa izay vehivavy manaram-po amin'ny fahafinaretana dia maty fahavelony.

But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth.

Ary izany zavatra izany no andidio, mba tsy hananany tsiny.

And these things give in charge, that they may be blameless.

Fa raha misy tsy mamelona ny azy, indrindra fa ny ankohonany, dia efa nandà ny finoana izy ka ratsy noho ny tsy mino aza.

But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.

Aza soratana ho isan'ny mpitondratena izay latsaka noho ny enim-polo taona sady efa nanam-bady indray mandeha ihany

Let not a widow be taken into the number under threescore years old, having been the wife of one man,

ary tsara laza amin'ny asa tsara; raha namelon-jaza izy, raha nampiantrano vahiny, raha nanasa ny tongotry ny olona masina, raha namonjy ny nozoim-pahoriana, raha nazoto nanaraka ny asa tsara rehetra.

Well reported of for good works; if she have brought up children, if she have lodged strangers, if she have washed the saints' feet, if she have relieved the afflicted, if she have diligently followed every good work.

Fa mandava ny mpitondra-tena tanora; fa raha tsy maharitra ny fifehezan'i Kristy izy, dia ta-hanam-bady

But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to wax wanton against Christ, they will marry;

ka hahazo fanamelohana, satria nandà ny finoany voalohany izy.

Having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith.

Sady mianatra ho malaina koa izy ka mandehandeha mitety trano; ary tsy malaina ihany, fa mpilazalaza sy mpandehandeha miraharaha ny an'olona ka manao teny tsy mety.

And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.

Koa tiako ny mpitondratena tanora fanahy hanam-bady sy hanana zanaka sy hanapaka ny tranony ka tsy hanome vava ny fahavalo hiteny ratsy.

I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.

Fa ny sasany efa nivily sahady nanaraka an'i Satana.

For some are already turned aside after Satan.

Raha misy vehivavy mino manana mpitondratena, aoka izy hamelona azy, ary aza avela hahavaky tratra ny fiangonana, mba hamelomany izay efa mpitondratena tokoa.

If any man or woman that believeth have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the church be charged; that it may relieve them that are widows indeed.

Aoka ny loholona izay mitondra tsara hatao tokony hahazo fanajana roa heny indrindra fa izay nikely aina amin'ny teny sy ny fampianarana.

Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.

Fa hoy ny Soratra Masina: "Aza manakombona ny vavan'ny omby mively vary ianao" (Deo. 25.4) Ary koa: "Ny mpiasa miendrika hahazo ny karamany" (Lio.10.7).

For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward.

Aza mandray teny hiampangana loholona, raha tsy misy vavolombelona roa na telo.

Against an elder receive not an accusation, but before two or three witnesses.

Izay manota dia anaro eo anatrehan'ny olona rehetra, mba hatahotra koa ny sasany.

Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.

Mananatra anao mafy aho eo anatrehan'Andriamanitra sy Kristy Jesosy ary ny anjely voafidy mba hotandremanao izany zavatra izany, tsy manao olon-tiana, na manao na inona na inona amin'ny fiangarana.

I charge thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality.

Aza malaky mametra-tanana amin'olona na iza na iza, ary aza miombona ota amin'ny sasany; tehirizo madio ny tenanao.

Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.

Aza misotro rano intsony fa misotroa divay kely noho ny vava-fonao sy ny fahosaosanao matetika.

Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.

Ny fahotan'ny olona sasany miharihary ka mialoha ho amin'ny fitsarana, fa ny an'ny sasany kosa manaraka ato aoriana.

Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after.

Ary miharihary toy izany koa ny asa tsara; ary izay tsy toy izany dia tsy ho azo afenina.

Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.
