< 1 Corinthians 6 >
1 Does any one of you that has a matter of dispute with another, presume to be judged before the unrighteous, and not before the saints?
Kũngĩkorwo kũrĩ mũndũ ũmwe wanyu ũhĩtĩirie ũrĩa ũngĩ-rĩ, no akĩgerie gũthiĩ kũrĩ andũ arĩa matetigĩrĩte Ngai nĩguo mamatuithanie ciira, handũ ha gũthiĩ mbere ya andũ arĩa aamũre?
2 Know you not that the saints shall judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you unworthy to decide concerning the smallest matters?
Kaĩ inyuĩ mũtooĩ atĩ andũ arĩa aamũre nĩo magaatuĩra andũ a gũkũ thĩ ciira? Na angĩkorwo nĩ inyuĩ mũgaaciirithia andũ a gũkũ thĩ-rĩ, githĩ mũtikĩrĩ na ũhoti wa gũtua maciira marĩa manini?
3 Know you not that we shall judge angels? Much more then, things pertaining to this life.
Kaĩ inyuĩ mũtooĩ atĩ nĩ ithuĩ tũgaatuĩra araika ciira? Ĩ maũndũ ma mũtũũrĩre ũyũ-rĩ, githĩ tũtiagĩrĩirwo nĩkũmaciira makĩria!
4 If, then, you have controversies pertaining to things of this life, set them to judge who are the least esteemed in the church.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio kũngĩkorwo na mũndũ wanyu ũhĩtĩirio maũndũ-inĩ ta macio-rĩ, no mũthuure o na andũ matangĩtĩĩka kanitha-inĩ matuĩke a kũmũciirithia!
5 I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not among you a wise man, not even one, who shall be able to arbitrate between his brethren?
Ndoiga ũguo nĩguo ndĩmũconore. Kwahoteka atĩa atĩ thĩinĩ wanyu gũtirĩ mũndũ mũũgĩ ũngĩhota gũtuithania etĩkia eerĩ ciira mangĩhĩtania?
6 But brother goes to law with brother, and this before the unbelievers?
No handũ ha ũguo-rĩ, mũrũ kana mwarĩ wa Ithe witũ atwaraga ũrĩa ũngĩ igooti-inĩ, na nĩ igooti-inĩ rĩa arĩa matetĩkĩtie!
7 Now, certainly, you are altogether in fault, that you have law-suits with one another. Why do you not rather suffer injustice? Why do you not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?
Gũkorwo mũrĩ na maciira gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu nĩkuonania atĩ nĩmũhootetwo biũ. Githĩ ti kaba mwĩtĩkagĩre gwĩkwo ũũru? Githĩ ti kaba mwĩtĩkagĩre kũheenio?
8 But you act unjustly, and you defraud, and that, too, your brethren.
Handũ ha ũguo-rĩ, nĩmũheenanagia na mũgekana ũũru, na acio mwĩkaga ũguo-rĩ, nĩ ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe wanyu.
9 Know you not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived; neither lewd persons, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor catamites, nor sodomites,
Kaĩ inyuĩ mũtooĩ atĩ andũ arĩa aaganu matikagaya ũthamaki wa Ngai? Mũtikanaheeneke: Gũtirĩ ahũũri maraya, kana ahooi mĩhianano, kana itharia, kana arũme arĩa metuaga ta aka, kana arũme arĩa makomaga na arũme arĩa angĩ,
10 nor thieves, nor defrauders, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
kana aici, kana andũ arĩa akoroku, kana arĩĩu, kana acambania, o na kana atunyani makaagaya ũthamaki wa Ngai.
11 And such were some of you: but you are washed, but you are sanctified, but you are justified, in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
Na ũguo nĩguo amwe anyu mwatariĩ. No nĩmwathambirio, na mũgĩtherio, na mũgĩtuuo athingu thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Mwathani Jesũ Kristũ o na nĩ ũndũ wa Roho wa Ngai witũ.
12 All meats are lawful for me: but all are not profitable. All are lawful for me; but I will not be brought under subjection by any.
“Niĩ ndirigĩrĩirio gwĩka ũndũ o wothe,” no ti ũndũ o wothe ũrĩ kĩguni. “Niĩ ndirigĩrĩirio gwĩka ũndũ o wothe,” no ndingĩathwo nĩ ũndũ o na ũrĩkũ.
13 Meats for the stomach, and the stomach for meats; but God will destroy both it and them. But the body is not for lewdness, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body:
“Irio nĩ cia nda na nda nĩ ya irio,” no Ngai nĩagaciniina cierĩ. Mwĩrĩ ti wa kũhũthĩrwo na ũmaraya, no nĩ wa gũtungata Mwathani, nake Mwathani aathage mwĩrĩ ũcio.
14 and God has raised, up the Lord, and will also raise us up by his power.
Ngai nĩariũkirie Mwathani kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ nĩ ũndũ wa hinya wake, na o na ithuĩ nĩagatũriũkia na hinya o ro ũcio.
15 Know you not that your bodies are the members of Christ? Shall I, then, take the members of the Christ, and make them the members of a harlot? It must not be.
Kaĩ inyuĩ mũtooĩ atĩ mĩĩrĩ yanyu nĩ ciĩga cia Kristũ we mwene? Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, no ngĩoye ciĩga icio cia Kristũ nĩguo ndĩcinyiitithanie na mũmaraya? Kũroaga gũtuĩka ũguo!
16 Know you not that he that is joined to a harlot, is one body? For the two, says the scripture, shall be one flesh.
Kaĩ inyuĩ mũtooĩ atĩ mũndũ ũrĩa wĩnyiitithanagia na mũmaraya, matuĩkaga mwĩrĩ ũmwe nake? Nĩgũkorwo nĩ kwĩrĩtwo atĩrĩ, “Acio eerĩ magaatuĩka mwĩrĩ ũmwe.”
17 But he that is joined to the Lord, is one spirit.
No mũndũ ũrĩa wĩnyiitithanagia na Mwathani atuĩkaga ũmwe nake thĩinĩ wa roho.
18 Shun lewdness. Every sin that a man commits, is without the body; but he that is guilty of lewdness sins against his own body.
Ũragĩrai mehia ma ũmaraya. Mehia marĩa mangĩ mothe mekagwo nĩ mũndũ marĩ nja ya mwĩrĩ wake, no mũndũ ũrĩa ũhũũraga ũmaraya-rĩ, nĩ mwĩrĩ wake mwene ehagĩria.
19 Know you not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, which you have from God, and that you are not your own?
Kaĩ inyuĩ mũtooĩ atĩ mĩĩrĩ yanyu nĩ hekarũ ya Roho Mũtheru ũrĩa ũrĩ thĩinĩ wanyu, ũrĩa mwaheirwo nĩ Ngai? Inyuĩ mũtirĩ anyu inyuĩ ene;
20 For you have been bought with a price: therefore, glorify God in your body.
inyuĩ mwagũrirwo na thogora. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, tĩĩithagiai Ngai na mĩĩrĩ yanyu.
