1 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, [a] called apostle of Jesus Christ, by God's will, and Sosthenes the brother,
Pauro, akadanwa nokuda kwaMwari, kuti ave mupostori waKristu Jesu, naSositeni hama yedu,
2 to the assembly of God which is in Corinth, to [those] sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints, with all that in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both theirs and ours:
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, in respect of the grace of God given to you in Christ Jesus;
Ndinogara ndichivonga Mwari nguva dzose nokuda kwenyasha dzake pamusoro penyu muna Kristu Jesu.
5 that in everything ye have been enriched in him, in all word [of doctrine], and all knowledge,
Nokuti maari makapfumiswa pazvinhu zvose, mukutaura kwenyu kwose uye nomuruzivo rwenyu rwose,
6 (according as the testimony of the Christ has been confirmed in you, )
nokuti uchapupu hwedu pamusoro paKristu hwakasimbiswa mamuri.
7 so that ye come short in no gift, awaiting the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Naizvozvo hapana kana chipo chomweya chamunoshayiwa pamunomirira nomwoyo wose kuratidzwa kwaIshe wedu Jesu Kristu.
8 who shall also confirm you to [the] end, unimpeachable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Achakusimbisai kusvikira kumagumo, kuti murege kuva nechamungapomerwa pazuva raIshe wedu Jesu Kristu.
9 God [is] faithful, by whom ye have been called into [the] fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
Mwari, iye akakudanai kuti muwadzane noMwanakomana wake Jesu Kristu Ishe wedu, akatendeka.
10 Now I exhort you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all say the same thing, and that there be not among you divisions; but that ye be perfectly united in the same mind and in the same opinion.
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 has been shewn to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of [the house of] Chloe, that there are strifes among you.
Hama dzangu, vamwe venyu vokwaKirowe vakandiudza kuti pane gakava pakati penyu.
12 But I speak of this, that each of you says, 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 Is the Christ divided? has Paul been crucified for you? or have ye been baptised unto the name of Paul?
Kristu akaparadzaniswa here? Pauro akarovererwa pamuchinjikwa nokuda kwenyu here? Makabhabhatidzwa muzita raPauro here?
14 I thank God that I have baptised none of you, unless Crispus and Gaius,
Ndinovonga Mwari kuti handina kubhabhatidza kana mumwe wenyu, kunze kwaKrispo naGayo,
15 that no one may say that I have baptised unto my own name.
kuti kurege kuva nomumwe wenyu anoti akabhabhatidzwa muzita rangu.
16 Yes, I baptised also the house of Stephanas; for the rest I know not if I have baptised any other.
Hongu, ndakabhabhatidzawo veimba yaStefanasi; kunze kwaivavo, handirangariri kana ndakabhabhatidzazve mumwe munhu.
17 For Christ has not sent me to baptise, but to preach glad tidings; not in wisdom of word, that the cross of the Christ may not be made vain.
Nokuti Kristu haana kundituma kuti ndinobhabhatidza asi kuti ndinoparidza vhangeri, kwete namashoko ouchenjeri hwavanhu, kuti muchinjikwa waKristu urege kupedzwa simba rawo.
18 For the word of the cross is to them that perish foolishness, but to us that are saved it is God's power.
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 set aside the understanding of the understanding ones.
Nokuti kwakanyorwa kuchinzi: “Ndichaparadza uchenjeri hwavakachenjera; ndichakonesa kuziva kwavanoziva.”
20 Where [is the] wise? where scribe? where disputer of this world? has not God made foolish the wisdom of the 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 by wisdom has not known God, God has been pleased by the foolishness of the preaching to save those that believe.
Nokuti muuchenjeri hwaMwari, nyika kubudikidza nouchenjeri hwayo, haina kumuziva, Mwari akafadzwa nazvo kuti vanotenda avaponese kubudikidza noupenzi hwezvakaparidzwa.
22 Since Jews indeed ask for signs, and Greeks seek wisdom;
VaJudha vanoda zviratidzo uye vaGiriki vanotsvaka uchenjeri,
23 but we preach Christ crucified, to Jews an offence, and to nations foolishness;
asi isu tinoparidza Kristu akarovererwa pamuchinjikwa, chigumbuso kuvaJudha noupenzi kune veDzimwe Ndudzi.
24 but to those that [are] called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ God's power and God's wisdom.
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 weakness of God is stronger than men.
Nokuti upenzi hwaMwari hwakachenjera kupfuura uchenjeri hwomunhu, uye utera hwaMwari hwakasimba kupfuura simba romunhu.
26 For consider your calling, brethren, that [there are] not many wise according to flesh, not many powerful, not many high-born.
Hama dzangu, rangarirai zvamakanga muri pamakadanwa. Havazi vazhinji venyu vaiva namasimba; havasi vazhinji vaikudzwa pakuzvarwa kwavo.
27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world, that he may put to shame the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world, that he may put to shame the strong things;
Asi Mwari akasarudza zvinhu zvoupenzi zvenyika ino kuti anyadzise vakachenjera; Mwari akasarudza zvisina simba zvenyika ino kuti anyadzise vane simba.
28 and the ignoble things of the world, and the despised, has God chosen, [and] things that are not, that he may annul the things that are;
Akasarudza zvinhu zvepasi pasi zvenyika ino uye zvakazvidzwa, nezvinhu zvisipo, kuti ashayise simba zvinhu zviripo,
29 so that no flesh should boast before God.
kuti kurege kuva nomunhu angazvikudza pamberi pake.
30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who has been made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness, and holiness, and redemption;
Nokuda kwake, imi muri muna Kristu Jesu, uyo akava kwatiri uchenjeri hunobva kuna Mwari, iko kururama, noutsvene uye norudzikinuro rwedu.
31 that according as it is written, He that boasts, let him boast in [the] Lord.
Naizvozvo, sezvazvakanyorwa zvichinzi, “Anozvikudza ngaazvikudze muna She.”
