1 Corinthians 3
1 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal. As unto little ones in Christ.
Bhakilishitu ajangunji, nne punaliji na mmanganya nangammeleketelanga mbuti bhandu bha mmbumu. Ikabheje mbuti bhandu bha pashilambolyo, malinga ashinambombe nndamo ja shi Kilishitu.
2 I gave you milk to drink, not meat; for you were not able as yet. But neither indeed are you now able; for you are yet carnal.
Nashinkumpanganga mabhele, nngabha shalya shanonopa, pabha nkashilepelenje. Nkali nnaino nkashikombolanga.
3 For, whereas there is among you envying and contention, are you not carnal, and walk according to man?
Numbe mmanganyanji launo nnakagulilanga indu ya pa shilambolyo. Pabha kungwenunji lushipagwa lupimililo na mpwai, bhuli mmanganya nngabha malinga bhandunji bha pa shilambolyo? Nnatamangana kwa kagulila nkubho gwa bhandunji bha pashilambolyo.
4 For while one saith, I indeed am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollo; are you not men? What then is Apollo, and what is Paul?
Mundu jumo munkumbi gwenunji pabheleketa kuti nne jwa a Pauli na juna kuti nne jwa a Apolo, bhuli, yeneyo ikalangula kuti nnatamangana malinga bhandu bha pa shilambolyo?
5 The ministers of him whom you have believed; and to every one as the Lord hath given.
A Apolo ni agani? Na a Pauli ni agani? Uwe bhatumishipe twampeleshelenje mmanganya ngulupai. Kila mundu munkumbi gwetu anatenda malinga shapegwilwe na Bhakulungwa.
6 I have planted, Apollo watered, but God gave the increase.
Nne nashinkupanda mmbeju, a Apolo gubhajitilile mashi, ikabheje bhameshiye mmbeju a Nnungu.
7 Therefore, neither he that planteth is any thing, nor he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
Kwa nneyo, jwa mmbone nngabha apandile mmbeju jula eu ajitilile mashi, ikabhe bha mmbone a Nnungu bhameshiye mmbeju.
8 Now he that planteth, and he that watereth, ate one. And every man shall receive his own reward, according to his own labour.
Apandile jula eu ajitilile mashi bhowe bhanalingananga, ikabheje kila mundu shaposhele upo yakwe kwa liengo lyatendile.
9 For we are God’s coadjutors: you are God’s husbandry; you are God’s building.
Pabha uwe na mmanganyanji, tubhowe tubhakamula liengo lya a Nnungu pamo, na mmanganya ni malinga nngunda gwabho na nyumba jabho.
10 According to the grace of God that is given to me, as a wise architect, I have laid the foundation; and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
Kwa jangutilwa na nema jimbegwilwe na a Nnungu, malinga nkushenga akwete lunda, aolile nshingi gwa nyumba na mundu juna gwaishe shenga pa ntundu jakwe. Ikabheje kila mundu alolesheye shakuti shenga panani jakwe.
11 For other foundation no man can lay, but that which is laid; which is Christ Jesus.
Jwakwa mundu juna shaolele maimbo ga shenga, paolelwe pala, yani a Yeshu Kilishitu.
12 Now if any man build upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble:
Ibhaga mundu shaashenje panani jakwe, kwa shaabhu eu maganga ga ela eu maganga ga bhei jikuklungwa, na juna shaashenjele nkali mikongo eu maamba eu manyai.
13 Every man’s work shall be manifest; for the day of the Lord shall declare it, because it shall be revealed in fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work, of what sort it is.
Ikabheje, lyubha lya ukumu liengo lya kila mundu shilibhoneshe mobha gushibhaishe a Kilishitu. Pabha, lyene lyubhalyo a Nnungu shibhapime kushimilika kwa kila liengo.
14 If any man’s work abide, which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
Monaga shashenjile mundu shibhonekaga kulonjeya, bhai shaposhele upo.
15 If any man’s work burn, he shall suffer loss; but he himself shall be saved, yet so as by fire.
Ikabheje shashenjile mundu shitinikaga, bhai, akapegwa upo, ikabheje nnyene shatapulwe mbuti akolobhweshe pa moto.
16 Know you not, that you are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
Bhuli, nkakwimanyanga kuti mmanganya ni likanisha, na kuti Mbumu jwa a Nnungu anatama mmunda jenunji?
17 But if any man violate the temple of God, him shall God destroy. For the temple of God is holy, which you are.
Bhai, mundu aangabhanyaga likanisha lya a Nnungulyo, a Nnungu shibhanng'angabhanye jwene mundujo, pabha likanisha lya a Nnungu, ni lya Ukonjelo na lyene likanisha lya a Nnungulyo, ni mmanganyanji.
18 Let no man deceive himself: if any man among you seem to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. (aiōn g165)
Nnaitembanje! Mundu jojowe munkumbi gwenunji aiganishiyaga kuti ashikola lunda malinga lwa pa shilambolyo, mbaya aiputuye nkupinga akole lunda lwa kweli. (aiōn g165)
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written: I will catch the wise in their own craftiness.
Pabha lunda lwa pa shilambolyo pano ni ungumba kwa a Nnungu. Na Majandiko ga Ukonjelo gakuti, “A Nnungu bhanakwaakamulanga bhakwetenje lunda, nkupenya kwabhonji.”
20 And again: The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
Kabhili Majandiko gakuti, “Bhakulungwa bhamumanyi ng'aniyo ya bhakwetenje lunda kuti ikapwaa.”
21 Let no man therefore glory in men.
Bhai mundu anaipunile bhandu. Pabha indu yowe yenunji.
22 For all things are yours, whether it be Paul, or Apollo, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to some; for all are yours;
Ibhaga a Pauli, eu a Apolo, eu a Kepa, eu shilambolyo, eu gumi na kuwa, eu indu ipali, nnaino na ikwiya, yowe ni yenunji,
23 And you are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.
ikabheje mmanganya ni bha a Kilishitu na bhalabho a Kilishitu ni bha a Nnungu.
