1 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, a called apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes the brother,
Pauro, akadanwa nokuda kwaMwari, kuti ave mupostori waKristu Jesu, naSositeni hama yedu,
2 to the congregation of God that is at Corinth, to called men, to holy men who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus with all in every place who call upon the name of our the Lord Jesus Christ-both ours and theirs.
kukereke yaMwari iri muKorinde, kuna vaya vakaitwa vatsvene muna Kristu Jesu uye vakadanwa kuti vave vatsvene pamwe chete navose vari kwose kwose vanodana kuzita raIshe wedu Jesu Kristu, Ishe wavo nowedu:
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Nyasha norugare ngazvive nemi zvinobva kuna Mwari Baba vedu naShe Jesu Kristu.
4 I thank my God always about you, for the grace of God that was given you in Christ Jesus,
Ndinogara ndichivonga Mwari nguva dzose nokuda kwenyasha dzake pamusoro penyu muna Kristu Jesu.
5 that in everything ye were enriched in him, in all speech and in all knowledge.
Nokuti maari makapfumiswa pazvinhu zvose, mukutaura kwenyu kwose uye nomuruzivo rwenyu rwose,
6 Just as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you,
nokuti uchapupu hwedu pamusoro paKristu hwakasimbiswa mamuri.
7 so that ye come behind in not one gift, waiting for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Naizvozvo hapana kana chipo chomweya chamunoshayiwa pamunomirira nomwoyo wose kuratidzwa kwaIshe wedu Jesu Kristu.
8 who will also confirm you until the end, irreproachable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Achakusimbisai kusvikira kumagumo, kuti murege kuva nechamungapomerwa pazuva raIshe wedu Jesu Kristu.
9 God is faithful through whom ye were called for the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
Mwari, iye akakudanai kuti muwadzane noMwanakomana wake Jesu Kristu Ishe wedu, akatendeka.
10 Now I beseech you, brothers, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and there be no divisions among you, but ye may be thoroughly prepared in the same mind and in the same understanding.
Ndinokukumbirai zvikuru, hama, muzita raIshe wedu Jesu Kristu, kuti imi mose mutaure chinhu chimwe, kuti pakati penyu parege kuva nokupesana uye kuti mubatanidzwe zvakanaka pamurangariro mumwe nomukufunga.
11 For it was declared to me about you, my brothers, by those of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
Hama dzangu, vamwe venyu vokwaKirowe vakandiudza kuti pane gakava pakati penyu.
12 Now I say this. That each of you actually say, I am of Paul, and I of Apollos, and I of Cephas, and I of Christ.
Zvandinoreva ndezvokuti: Mumwe wenyu anoti, “Ini ndiri waPauro,” mumwe oti, “Ini ndiri waAporosi,” mumwewo oti, “Ini ndiri waKefasi,” mumwe zvakare oti, “Ini ndiri waKristu.”
13 Has Christ been divided? Was Paul crucified for you, or were ye immersed in the name of Paul?
Kristu akaparadzaniswa here? Pauro akarovererwa pamuchinjikwa nokuda kwenyu here? Makabhabhatidzwa muzita raPauro here?
14 I thank God that I immersed none of you except Crispus and Gaius,
Ndinovonga Mwari kuti handina kubhabhatidza kana mumwe wenyu, kunze kwaKrispo naGayo,
15 lest some man should say that I immersed in my name.
kuti kurege kuva nomumwe wenyu anoti akabhabhatidzwa muzita rangu.
16 And I also immersed the household of Stephanas. Besides, I know not whether I immersed any other.
Hongu, ndakabhabhatidzawo veimba yaStefanasi; kunze kwaivavo, handirangariri kana ndakabhabhatidzazve mumwe munhu.
17 For Christ sent me not to immerse, but to preach the good news, not in wisdom of speech lest the cross of Christ would be emptied.
Nokuti Kristu haana kundituma kuti ndinobhabhatidza asi kuti ndinoparidza vhangeri, kwete namashoko ouchenjeri hwavanhu, kuti muchinjikwa waKristu urege kupedzwa simba rawo.
18 For the message of the cross is of course foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is a power of God.
Nokuti shoko romuchinjikwa upenzi kuna vari kuparara, asi kwatiri isu vanoponeswa isimba raMwari.
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and I will frustrate the understanding of those of understanding.
Nokuti kwakanyorwa kuchinzi: “Ndichaparadza uchenjeri hwavakachenjera; ndichakonesa kuziva kwavanoziva.”
20 Where is a wise man? Where is a scholar? Where is a researcher of this age? Did not God make foolish the wisdom of this world? (aiōn g165)
Akachenjera aripiko? Akadzidza aripiko? Muiti wenharo wenguva ino aripiko? Ko, Mwari haana kuita uchenjeri hwenyika ino upenzi here? (aiōn g165)
21 For since in the wisdom of God the world did not know God through its wisdom, it pleased God through the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe.
Nokuti muuchenjeri hwaMwari, nyika kubudikidza nouchenjeri hwayo, haina kumuziva, Mwari akafadzwa nazvo kuti vanotenda avaponese kubudikidza noupenzi hwezvakaparidzwa.
22 And because Jews demand a sign and Greeks search for wisdom,
VaJudha vanoda zviratidzo uye vaGiriki vanotsvaka uchenjeri,
23 but we proclaim Christ crucified, it is truly to Jews a stumbling-block and to Gentiles foolishness.
asi isu tinoparidza Kristu akarovererwa pamuchinjikwa, chigumbuso kuvaJudha noupenzi kune veDzimwe Ndudzi.
24 But to them, to the called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.
Asi kuna avo vakadanwa naMwari, zvose vaJudha navaGiriki, Kristu isimba raMwari nouchenjeri hwaMwari.
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weak thing of God is stronger than men.
Nokuti upenzi hwaMwari hwakachenjera kupfuura uchenjeri hwomunhu, uye utera hwaMwari hwakasimba kupfuura simba romunhu.
26 For notice your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to flesh, not many powerful, not many eminent.
Hama dzangu, rangarirai zvamakanga muri pamakadanwa. Havazi vazhinji venyu vaiva namasimba; havasi vazhinji vaikudzwa pakuzvarwa kwavo.
27 But God chose the foolish things of the world, so that he might humiliate the wise, and God chose the weak things of the world, so that he might humiliate the powerful.
Asi Mwari akasarudza zvinhu zvoupenzi zvenyika ino kuti anyadzise vakachenjera; Mwari akasarudza zvisina simba zvenyika ino kuti anyadzise vane simba.
28 And God chose the common things of the world, and the disdained things, and the things that are not, so that he might make useless the things that are,
Akasarudza zvinhu zvepasi pasi zvenyika ino uye zvakazvidzwa, nezvinhu zvisipo, kuti ashayise simba zvinhu zviripo,
29 so that no flesh may boast before God.
kuti kurege kuva nomunhu angazvikudza pamberi pake.
30 But ye are his, in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification and redemption,
Nokuda kwake, imi muri muna Kristu Jesu, uyo akava kwatiri uchenjeri hunobva kuna Mwari, iko kururama, noutsvene uye norudzikinuro rwedu.
31 so that, just as it is written, He who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.
Naizvozvo, sezvazvakanyorwa zvichinzi, “Anozvikudza ngaazvikudze muna She.”
