1 Corinthians 15
1 And, brothers, I make known to you the good news that I preached to you, which also ye received, and in which ye stand,
Sambano achalongo achinjangu, ngusaka nankumbusye yankati Ngani Jambone jinanlalichile, jimwajipochele jajili nsingi wa chikulupi chenu. Ni ŵanyamwe nkwima chilimbile pa wele nsingi wo.
2 by which also ye are saved if ye hold firm that word I preached to you, unless ye believed in vain.
Utenga unanlalichile wo uli Ngani Jambone, ŵanyamwe nkukulupuswa mwaikamulisyaga yambone yeila inannalichile, ikaŵaga yeleyo chikulupi chenu ngaŵa chindu.
3 For I delivered to you at first what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures,
Pakuŵa kundanda nampele ŵanyamwe indu yaili ni mate nnope inapochele une nansyene: Kuti Kilisito ŵawilile sambi syetu mpela yagakuti pakusala Malembelo ga Akunnungu,
4 and that he was buried, and that he arose on the third day according to the scriptures,
ni ŵaŵichikwe mwilembe ni kusyuka pa lyuŵa lyaatatu mpela Malembelo ga Akunnungu yagakuti pakusala,
5 and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.
kundanda ŵaakopochele che Petulo, ni kanyuma ŵaakopochele aŵala likumi ni ŵaŵili.
6 Then he appeared to over five hundred brothers at once, of whom the greater part remain until now, but some also slept.
Sooni ŵaakopochele achalongo achinjetu kupunda mia tano kwa pamo ni ŵane mwa ŵanyawo ali chiŵela ni umi ni ŵane ajasiche.
7 Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles,
Kanyuma ŵakopochele che Yakobo ni sooni ŵaakopochele achinduna wose.
8 and last of all, as to the untimely birth, he also appeared to me.
Mbesi ŵangopochele une jundi mpela jumbagwile ngaŵa katema kao.
9 For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
Pakuŵa une ndili nduna jwamwana kupunda achinduna wose, nganguŵajilwa kuŵilanjikwa nduna, ligongo nalagasisye mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵaali ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu.
10 But by the grace of God I am what I am. And his grace for me did not become empty, but I labored more abundantly than them all, yet not I, but the grace of God with me.
Nambo, kwa upile wa Akunnungu mele yele indi, ni upile wambele, nganamba kwa iyiyi peyi. Ngaŵa kuti napanganyisye masengo kwakuchalila kwapunda achinduna wose, nganiŵa une, nambo umbone wa Akunnungu ŵaliji pamo none.
11 Therefore whether I or those men, so we proclaim, and so ye believed.
Nipele yaŵaga une ni jungulalichila pane ŵelewo, chelecho ni chatukulalichila, ni chelecho ni chinkuchikulupilila.
12 Now if Christ is proclaimed that he has risen from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
Iŵaga yalalichikwe kuti Kilisito ŵasyuchile, ŵampepe mwa ŵanyamwe akukombola chinauli kusala, ngapagwa kusyuka?
13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither has Christ risen.
Nambo iŵaga kwangali kusyuka, nipele Kilisito nganasyuka.
14 And if Christ has not risen, then our preaching is empty, and your faith is also empty.
Iŵaga Kilisito nganasyuka, kulalichila kwetu kuli kwangali chindu, ni kukulupilila kwenu kuli kwangali chindu.
15 And also we are found false witnesses of God, because we witnessed according to God that he raised up the Christ, whom he did not raise up, if therefore the dead are really not raised.
Kupunda yeleyo, tukuloleka kuŵa ŵaumboni ŵa unami paujo pa Akunnungu, pakuŵa twasasile kuti Akunnungu ŵasyusisye Kilisito, nambo nganiŵasyusya, iŵaga ili isyene, ŵawile ngaasyuka.
16 For if the dead are not raised, neither has Christ been raised.
Pakuŵa naga ŵawile ngakusyuswa nipele Kilisito nombe nganasyuka.
17 And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is vain. Ye are still in your sins.
Iŵaga Kilisito nganasyuka, chikulupi chenu changali chindu ni ŵanyamwe ndi chiŵela mu sambi.
18 Then also those who slept in Christ have perished.
Sooni ŵakukulupilila wose ŵaŵawile achakulupililaga Kilisito asoiye.
19 If we are men who have hoped in Christ in this life only, we are of all men more miserable.
Ni iŵaga tukwalolela Kilisito mu umi awuwupewu, uweji tukusachilwa tukolelwe chanasa kwapunda ŵandu wose.
20 But now Christ has been raised from the dead. He became the first fruit of those who are asleep.
Nambo isyene, Kilisito asyuchile, Jwelejo ali jwaandanda ni chimanyisyo chisyene kwa aŵala ŵandu ŵaŵawile kuti chasyuchikwe.
21 For since death is because of a man, the resurrection of the dead is also because of a man.
Pakuŵa mpela ila chiwa chaichiswe ni mundu jumo, iyoyopeyo, kusyuka kwaichiswe ni mundu jumo.
22 For as by Adam all die, so also by Christ all will be made alive.
Mpela ila ŵandu wose iyakuti pakuwa kwaligongo lya kulumbikana ni che Adamu, iyoyopeyo wandu wose akutendekwa ŵajumi kwaligongo lya kulumbikana ni Kilisito.
23 But each in his own order. Christ the first fruit, then those of Christ at his coming.
Nambo kila mundu chasyuche kwa katema kakwe, Kilisito ŵasyuchile kundanda nipele aŵala ŵaali ŵandu ŵakwe Kilisito chasyusikwe, apala Kilisito pachaiche.
24 Afterwards the end, when he delivers up the kingdom to the God and Father, when he will abolish all rule, and all authority and power.
Pele mbesi chijiiche katema Kilisito pachachapa Akunnungu Atati umwenye, pachamale kwonanga mbumu sya ulamusi ni mbumu sya ukulu ni mbumu sya machili.
25 For he must reign until he will put all his enemies under his feet.
Pakuŵa Kilisito tachitawala mpaka Akunnungu pachachaŵika ŵammagongo ŵao paasi pa makongolo gao.
26 The last enemy abolished is death.
Jwammagongo jwambesi kwonasika ali chiwa.
27 For he subordinated all things under his feet. But when he says that all things have been subordinated, it is clear that he who subordinated all things under him, is excepted.
Pakuŵa Malembelo ga Akunnungu gakuti, “Akunnungu aŵisile yose paasi pa makongolo gakwe.” Nambo Malembelo pagakusala, “Indu yose iŵichikwe paasi pa makongolo gakwe aitawale,” ikuwoneka pangasisika yakuti Akunnungu nganapagwa mu indu yo, pakuŵa welewo ni ŵaiŵisile indu yose paasi pa makongolo ga Kilisito.
28 And when all things are made subordinate to him, then the Son himself will also be made subordinate to him who subordinated all things to him, so that God may be all in all.
Indu yose yaŵichikwaga paasi pa ulamusi wa Kilisito nombe Mwana chaliŵiche nsyene paasi pa Akunnungu, kuti Akunnungu aitawale indu yose ni papali pose.
29 Otherwise what will they do who are immersed for the dead? If the dead do not rise at all, why then are they immersed for the dead?
Sambano, iŵaga nganikupagwa kusyuka, chatendeuli aŵala ŵaŵabatiswe kwaligongo lya ŵawe? Iŵaga ŵawe ngaasyusikwa, kwachichi ŵandu akubatiswa kwaligongo lyao?
30 And we, why are we in peril every hour?
Ni kwetu uwe, kwachichi tukulitaga mu yakogoya katema kose?
31 By the pride that belongs to you, that I keep in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
Achalongo achinjangu, une nguutyosya umi wangu moŵa gose! Isyene ngusala! Ngulilapa kwaligongo lyenu kwa kulumbikana kwetu ni Che Yesu Kilisito Ambuje ŵetu.
32 If in respect to men I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what is the benefit to me if the dead are not raised? Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.
Kumenyana kwangu ni ŵandu ŵaŵaliji mpela inyama yakalipa ku Efeso kula, namenyene kwa usache wa ŵandu, ana napatile ichichi? Iŵaga ŵawe ngaasyusikwa sambano nneche, “Tulye ni kung'wa, pakuŵa malaŵi chituwe.”
33 Be not led astray. Evil associations corrupt good habits.
Ngasinlambuchikwa: “Umbusanga ŵakusakala ukonanga wende wambone.”
34 Sober up rightly, and do not sin, for some have ignorance of God. I speak shame about you.
Mpitikusye ng'anisyo syenu, mpanganye yambone, pakuŵa ŵampepe mwa ŵanyamwe ngakwamanyilila Akunnungu ng'oo. Nguŵecheta yeleyi kuti nantesye soni.
35 But some man will say, How are the dead raised, and with what kind of body do they come?
Nambo mundu akukombola kuusya, “Ana ŵawe akusyuswa chinauli? Ana chachiŵa ni iilu yantiuli?”
36 Thou foolish man, what thou sow is not made alive unless it dies.
Ŵakuloŵela mmwe! Chinkuchipanda ngachimela mpaka chiwe kaje.
37 And what thou sow, thou do not sow the body that it will become, but a bare grain, if it may happen of wheat, or of some other kind.
Pankupanda, nkupanda lusongolo pe, lwaŵaga lusongolo lwa ngano pane mbeju jine, ngawa mmela wansima waukutyochela kanyuma.
38 But God gives it a body as he wills, and to each of the seeds its own body.
Nambo Akunnungu akujipa mbeju jo uloleche mpela yakuti kusaka nsyene, ni kila lusongolo lukwete uloleche wakwe.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh, but one of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another of fishes, and another of birds,
Iilu ya yepanganyikwe yose ngaikulandana. Ŵandu akwete iilu yao ni inyama ikwete iilu yao, ijuni ikwete iilu yao ni somba sikwete iilu yao.
40 and heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies (but the glory of the heavenly is different, and the glory of the earthly is different),
Sooni ipali iilu ya kwinani ni iilu ya pachilambo, nambo usalale wa iilu ya kwinani ngaukulandana ni usalale wa iilu ya pachilambo.
41 another glory is of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars, for star differs from star in glory.
Lyuŵa likwete usalale wakwe ni lwesi lukwete usalale wakwe, ni ndondwa sikwete usalale wakwe. Namose ndondwa nasyo silekangene kwa usalale.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in the perishable, it is raised in imperishability.
Ni ichiiŵe katema ka kusyuswa kwa ŵawe. Mpela ila mbeju, chiilu chikusikwa akuno chili chiosile nambo chikusyuka akuno chili chejumi.
43 It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power.
Chiilu chikusikwa mwa kwaluka chikusyuka mu lumbili, chiilu chikusikwa mwakulepetala chikusyuka mu machili.
44 It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
Chiilu pachikusikwa, chikusikwa kwa chiilu chatupagwile nacho, nambo pachikusyuswa, chikusyuswa kwa chimbumu, iŵaga kwana chiilu chatupagwile nacho nipele chipali nombe chiilu cha chimbumu.
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam developed into a living soul. The last Adam a life giving spirit.
Ilembekwe Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu, “Mundu jwaandanda, che Adamu, ŵaliji mundu jwanjumi,” nambo Adamu jwambesi ali Mbumu jwakwapa ŵandu umi.
46 Nevertheless the spiritual is not first, but the natural, then the spiritual.
Ngaŵa chiilu cha chimbumu chichalongolele, nambo chiilu chitupagwile nacho, ni mbesi achila chiilu cha chimbumu.
47 The first man was of the earth, earthly. The second man is the Lord from heaven.
Che Adamu jwaandanda ŵagumbikwe kutyochela mu litaka, nambo che Adamu jwaaŵili jwatyochele kwinani.
48 As is the earthly, such also are the earthly. And as is the heavenly, such also are the heavenly.
Wose ŵali pachilambo ali mpela ajula juŵagumbikwe mu litaka, nambo aŵala ŵaa kwinani ali mpela ajula juŵatyochele kwinani.
49 And just as we have worn the form of the earthly, we will also wear the form of the heavenly.
Ni mpela itutite kulandana ni mundu juŵagumbikwe kwa litaka, iyoyo chitulandane ni mundu juŵatyochele kwinani.
50 Now this I affirm, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit imperishability.
Ngunsalila achinjangu, chiilu cha mundu ngachikombola kwinjila mu umwenye wa Akunnungu, atamuno chiilu chachikuwola ngachikukombola kwinjila peuto paikwinjila iilu yangaikuwola.
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery. We will actually not all sleep, but we will all be transformed,
Mpilikanile, ngunsalila yantemela, ngatuwa wose, nambo wose chitugalauswe,
52 in an instant, in the blink of an eye, at the last trumpet. For it will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be transformed.
indu yi chiikopochele katema lipenga lya mbesi pachilisone, chisisimuchile. Pakuŵa lipenga pachilisone, ŵawe chachisyuswa akawa sooni, noweji chitugalauswe.
53 For this perishable must put on imperishability, and this mortal put on immortality.
Pakuŵa chiilu chakonasika chikusachilwa chigalauswe ni kuŵa changajonasika, ni chiilu chakuwa chikusachilwa chigalauswe chiŵe changawa.
54 But when this perishable will have put on imperishability, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then will come to pass the saying that is written, Death was swallowed up in victory.
Nipele chiilu chakonasika cho pachichigalauswe ni kuwa changajonasika, ni chiilu chakuwa pachichigalauswe kuŵa changawa, nipele alila liloŵe lyalilembekwe patiliŵe isyene, “Chiwa chijonasikwe ni kupunda kumalile!”
“Ana ugwe chiwa, kupunda kwenu kuli kwapi? Ana ugwe chiwa machili genu gagakwika nako kupoteka galikwapi?” (Hadēs g86)
56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
Chiwa chikukola machili gakuulasya kutyochela mu sambi, ni sambi sikukola machili kutyochela mmalajisyo ga che Musa.
57 But thanks is to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Nambo twatogolele Akunnungu, ŵelewo akututenda tupunde kwa litala lya Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito.
58 Therefore, my beloved brothers, become ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not empty in the Lord.
Nipele achalongo achinjangu, njimanje kwakulimbila, nkatinganyika. Moŵa gose mpunde kulityosya mmasengo ga Ambuje pakuŵa nkuimanyilila kuti masengo gankugapanganya kwa ligongo lya Ambuje nganigaŵa ga iyiyi peyi.
