1 Corinthians 3
1 And I could not speake vnto you, brethren, as vnto spirituall men, but as vnto carnall, euen as vnto babes in Christ.
Nanye, bhamula bhasu na bhayala bhasu, nitalomele nemwe kuti lwa bhanu bhechinyamwoyo, nawe lwa bhanu bhechinyamubhili. Na lwa bhana bhalela mu Kristo.
2 I gaue you milke to drinke, and not meat: for yee were not yet able to beare it, neither yet nowe are yee able.
Nabhanywesishe amata na jitali nyama, kulwokubha aliga mutemaliliye okulya jinyama. Na woli muchali kwimalilila.
3 For yee are yet carnall: for whereas there is among you enuying, and strife, and diuisions, are ye not carnall, and walke as men?
Kulwokubha emwe muchali bhachinyamubhili. Kulwokubha lifubha no kwikuya okubhonekana agati yemwe. Angu, mutakwikala okulubhana no mubhili, na angu, mutakulibhata lwakutyo jibheile abhana bhanu?
4 For when one sayeth, I am Pauls, and another, I am Apollos, are yee not carnall?
Kulwokubha oumwi kaikati, “Enimulubha Paulo” Oundi kaikati “Enimulubha Apolo,” mutakwikala lwa bhana bhanu?
5 Who is Paul then? and who is Apollos, but the ministers by whome yee beleeued, and as the Lord gaue to euery man?
Apolo niga? na Paulo niga? Abhakosi bha unu mwikilisishe, bhuli unu Latabhugenyi ayanile okukola.
6 I haue planted, Apollos watred, but God gaue the increase.
Anye nayambile, Apolo natako amanji, nawe Nyamuanga nakusha.
7 So then, neither is hee that planteth any thing, neither hee that watreth, but God that giueth the increase.
Kulwejo, atalyati unu ayambile nolo unu ateeko amanji atana chona chona. Nawe ni Nyamuanga unu kakusha.
8 And he that planteth, and he that watreth, are one, and euery man shall receiue his wages, according to his labour.
Woli unu kayamba na unu katako amanji bhona ni sawa, na bhuli umwi kalamila omuyelo okulubhana ne milimu jae.
9 For we together are Gods labourers: yee are Gods husbandrie, and Gods building.
Kulwokubha eswe chili bhakosi bha Nyamuanga, emwe ni migunda ja Nyamuanga, inyumba ya Nyamuanga.
10 According to the grace of God giuen to mee, as a skilfull master builder, I haue laide the foundation, and another buildeth thereon: but let euery man take heede how he buildeth vpon it.
Okusokana ne chigongo cha Nyamuanga chinu nayanibhwe kuti mumbaki mukulu, nateewo omusingi, no oundi nombaka ingulu yagwo. Nawe omunu nabhwe mulengelesi kutyo kombakako ingulu yae.
11 For other foundation can no man laie, then that which is laied, which is Iesus Christ.
Kulwokubha atalio undi unu katula okumbaka omusingi ogundi okukila gunu gumbakilwe, gunu guli Yesu Kristo.
12 And if any man builde on this foundation, golde, siluer, precious stones, timber, haye, or stubble,
Woli, labha oumwi mwimwe kombaka ingulu yae kwa jijaabhu, Jiela, amabhui go bhugusi bhunene, amati, obhunyasi, nolo amabhabhi,
13 Euery mans worke shalbe made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shalbe reueiled by the fire: and the fire shall trie euery mans worke of what sort it is.
omulimu gwae gulisululwa, kwo bhwelu bhwa mumwisi bhuliisulula. Kulwokubha ilisululwa no mulilo. Omulilo gulilegeja obhwekisi bhwo mulimu gwa bhuli munu kutyo akolele.
14 If any mans worke, that he hath built vpon, abide, he shall receiue wages.
Labha chona chona chinu omunu chinu ombakile chikasigala, omwene alibhona omuyelo.
15 If any mans worke burne, he shall lose, but he shalbe saued himselfe: neuerthelesse yet as it were by the fire.
Nawe labha omulimu gwo munu gukalungula kwo mulilo, atalibhona muyelo. Nawe omwene alichungulwa, lwakutyo kasoka mumulilo.
16 Knowe ye not that ye are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
Mutakumenya ati emwe muli eyekalu lya Nyamuanga na ati Omwoyo gwa Nyamuanga gwikaye munda yemwe?
17 If any man destroy the Temple of God, him shall God destroy: for the Temple of God is holy, which ye are.
Labha omunu akalinyamula liyekalu lya Nyamuanga, Nyamuanga kamunyamula omunu uliya. Kulwokubha liyekalu lya Nyamuanga ni lyelu, na kutyo nemwe.
18 Let no man deceiue himselfe: If any man among you seeme to be wise in this world, let him be a foole, that he may be wise. (aiōn g165)
Omunu atajakwijiga omwene, labha wona wona mwimwe ketogelati ali no bhwengeso ku mwanya gunu, nabhe lwo “mumumu” niwo kabha mwengeso. (aiōn g165)
19 For the wisdome of this worlde is foolishnesse with God: for it is written, He catcheth the wise in their owne craftinesse.
Kulwokubha obhwengeso bhwa kuchalo chinu ni bhumumu imbele ya Nyamuanga, Kulwokubha jandikilwe, “Kakoma abho bhwengeso kubhulige lige bhwebhwe”
20 And againe, The Lord knoweth that the thoughtes of the wise be vaine.
Na lindi “Latabhugenyi kamenya obhwiganilisha bhwa bhengeso ati ni bhutamu tamu.”
21 Therefore let no man reioyce in men: for all things are yours.
Kulwejo omunu ataja kwikuisha abhana bhanu! Kulwokubha ebhinu bhyona ni bhyemwe.
22 Whether it be Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death: whether they be things present, or thinges to come, euen all are yours,
Labha ni Paulo, nolo Apolo, nolo Kefa, nolo echalo, nolo obhulame, nolo lufu, nolo bhinu bhinu bhilio, nolo bhinu bhilibhao. Byona ni bhyemwe.
23 And ye Christes, and Christ Gods.
nemwe muli bha Kristo na Kristo niwa Nyamuanga.
