1 Corinthians 3
1 Brothers, I could not speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly, as to babies in Christ.
Walongu wayangu, neni mweziti ndiri kutakula na mwenga gambira wana wina na Rohu gwa Mlungu, ntakula na mwenga gambira wantu wa pasipanu, gambira wanonu mumakaliru ga Shikristu.
2 I fed you with milk, not with solid food, for you were not yet ready. Indeed, you are not ready even now,
Nuwalandiziya mwenga maweri, pota na kuwapanani shiboga shikamala, toziya mwenga maweni shirii. Ata vinu mwakala ndiri kushiliya.
3 for you are still fleshly. For insofar as there is jealousy, strife, and factions among you, are not you fleshly, and do not you walk in the ways of men?
Toziya mwenga mwankulikala gambira wantu wa pasipanu ntambu yawalikala. Hashi, yanakaka ndiri kuwera kwana weya na kulilewana pakati penu? Goseri aga gawalanguziyani mwenga mwankali wantu wa pasipanu na mwankulikala gambira pasipanu ntambu yapafira.
4 For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are not you fleshly?
Yumu gwenu pakatakula, “Neni nufata Paulu,” Na yumonga kalonga, “Neni numufata Apolu.” Hashi, mtenda ndiri gambira wantu wa pasipanu ntambu yawatenda?
5 Who then is Apollos, and who is Paul, but servants through whom you believed, and each as the Lord gave to him?
Hashi, Apolu ndo gaa? Hashi, Paulu ndo gaa? Twenga twa wantumintumi hera wa Mlungu, yatuwajegerani mwenga njimiru. Kila yumu gwetu katenda lihengu lyakapananitwi na Mtuwa.
6 I planted. Apollos watered. But God gave the increase.
Neni nyaliti mbeyu na Apolu katiriti mashi, kumbiti Mlungu ndo yakayimeriziyiti mbeyu ayi.
7 So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.
Ulii yakayaliti na ulii yakitiliti mashi shintu ndiri, kumbiti Mlungu gweka yakuwi ndo yakavitenditi vyoseri avi vikuli.
8 Now he who plants and he who waters are the same, but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
Muntu yakayaliti na muntu yakitiliti mashi, woseri watenda lihengu lyakulinganira, Mlungu hakamfupi kila muntu kulawirana na lihengu lyakatenditi.
9 For we are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s farming, God’s building.
Toziya twenga twawalongu, tutenda lihengu pamuhera na Mlungu na mwenga mwalirambu lya Mlungu na mwenga mwanumba ya Mlungu.
10 According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another builds on it. But let each man be careful how he builds on it.
Kwa utanga wa mafupu gampananitwi na Mlungu, ntenditi lihengu gambira mnyawa numba na ntuliti lyanjiru, muntu gwingi kankunyawa palyanjiru ali. Kumbiti kila muntu kaliloli weri ntambu yakanyawa.
11 For no one can lay any other foundation than that which has been laid, which is Jesus Christ.
Kwahera muntu gwingi yakaweza kutula lyanjiru lyamonga pa ulii yakalituliti kala, lyanjiru ali ndo Yesu Kristu.
12 But if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, or straw,
Pa lyanjiru ali, wantu wamonga hawanyawi kwa zahabu ama madini gawagashema mpiya ama kwa mabuwi ga mpiya zivuwa, ama mitera ama miteti ama lyasi.
13 each man’s work will be revealed. For the Day will declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself will test what sort of work each man’s work is.
Na uherepa wa lihengu lya kila muntu haliwoneki mulishaka lya Kristu pakashigubutula. Toziya mulishaka ali motu hagugubutuli lihengu lya kila muntu na motu hagupimi na kulanguziya uherepa wakuwi.
14 If any man’s work remains which he built on it, he will receive a reward.
Payiwera shakanyawiti muntu palyanjiru alu pashilungula ndiri mumotu agu, su mnyawa numba hakawanki lifupu.
15 If any man’s work is burned, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, but as through fire.
Kumbiti lihengu lya muntu yoseri palilungulira, kumbiti yakanyawiti hakaagamiziyi lifupu lyakuwi, kumbiti mweni hakalopoziwi gambira kusolopoka kulawa mumotu.
16 Do not you know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you?
Hashi, mwenga muvimana ndiri kuwera mwenga Mwanumba nkulu ya Mlungu na Rohu gwa Mlungu kalikala mngati mwemwenga?
17 If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy, which you are.
Su muntu pakaihalibisiya Numba nkulu ya Mlungu, Mlungu hakamuhalabisiyi yomberi. Toziya Numba nkulu ya Mlungu ndo inanagala na maweni mwenga ndo handa numba ya Mlungu.
18 Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks that he is wise among you in this age (aiōn g165), let him become a fool, that he may become wise.
Namulipayira! Muntu yoseri pakati pa mwenga pakalihola kana luhala lwa ntambu ya pasipanu, mbaka kaweri mzyigizyigi su kapati kuwera na luhala lwa nakaka. (aiōn g165)
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He has taken the wise in their craftiness.”
Toziya luhala lwa wantu wa pasipanu luwera luzyigizyigi kulongolu kwa Mlungu. Malembu Mananagala ntambu yagalonga, “Mlungu kankuwagomiziya yawawera na luhala muwujanja wawu.”
20 And again, “The Lord knows the reasoning of the wise, that it is worthless.”
Na Malembu Mananagala gamonga kayi, “Mtuwa kavimana kuwera maholu ga yawawera na luhala gafaa ndiri.”
21 Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours,
Su muntu nakalitumbiria kila shintu shawatenda wantu, toziya kila shintu sha mwenga.
22 whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come. All are yours,
Kaweri Paulu ama Apolu ama Kefa ama pasipanu ama makaliru ama kuhowa, ama vitwatira vya vinu na vya shakapanu, vyoseri vya mwenga.
23 and you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.
Na mwenga mwawantu wa Kristu na Kristu gwa Mlungu.
