1 Corinthians 7
1 Nowe concerning the thinges whereof ye wrote vnto mee, It were good for a man not to touche a woman.
Kaakano ku bintu bye mwampandiikira, kirungi omusajja obutakwatanga ku mukazi.
2 Neuertheles, to auoide fornication, let euery man haue his wife, and let euery woman haue her owne husband.
Naye olw’ebikolwa eby’obwenzi, buli musajja abeerenga ne mukazi we; era na buli mukazi abeerenga ne bba.
3 Let the husband giue vnto the wife due beneuolence, and likewise also the wife vnto the husband.
Omusajja ateekwa okutuukirizanga eby’obufumbo byonna eri mukazi we era n’omukazi bw’atyo.
4 The wife hath not the power of her owne bodie, but ye husband: and likewise also the husband hath not ye power of his own body, but the wife.
Kubanga omukazi bw’afumbirwa aba takyafuga mubiri gwe ye wabula bba, era n’omusajja bw’atyo aba takyafuga mubiri gwe ye wabula mukazi we y’aba agulinako obuyinza.
5 Defraude not one another, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may giue your selues to fasting and praier, and againe come together that Satan tempt you not for your incontinecie.
Buli omu alemenga okumma munne wabula nga mulagaanye ekiseera mulyoke mufune ebbanga ery’okusabiramu n’oluvannyuma muddiŋŋanenga, Setaani aleme okubasuula olw’obuteefuga bwammwe.
6 But I speake this by permission, not by commandement.
Naye kino nkyogera mu ngeri ya kukkiriziganya so si mu ngeri ya kuwa kiragiro.
7 For I woulde that all men were euen as I my selfe am: but euery man hath his proper gift of God, one after this maner, and another after that.
Nandyagadde buli omu abeere nga nze; naye buli muntu alina ekirabo ekikye ku bubwe ekiva eri Katonda, omu mu ngeri emu n’omulala mu ngeri endala.
8 Therefore I say vnto the vnmaried, and vnto the widowes, It is good for them if they abide euen as I doe.
Naye njogera eri abo abatannawasa ne bannamwandu; kirungi okusigala nga bwe bali, era nga nze bwe ndi.
9 But if they cannot abstaine, let them marrie: for it is better to marrie then to burne.
Naye bwe baba tebasobola kwefuga bafumbirwe, oba bawase, kubanga okufumbiriganwa kisinga okwakiriranga okw’okwegomba.
10 And vnto ye maried I comand, not I, but ye Lord, Let not ye wife depart from her husband.
Naye abafumbo mbawa etteeka eriva eri Mukama waffe: omukazi tanobanga ku bba.
11 But and if shee depart, let her remaine vnmaried, or be reconciled vnto her husband, and let not the husband put away his wife.
Singa baawukana, omukazi ateekwa kubeerera awo, oba si ekyo addeyo ewa bba basonyiwagane; n’omusajja tagobanga mukazi we.
12 But to ye remnant I speake, and not ye Lord, If any brother haue a wife, ye beleeueth not, if she be content to dwell with him, let him not forsake her.
Abalala njogera gye bali kubanga si tteeka eriva eri Mukama waffe, naye mbagamba nti owooluganda bw’abeera n’omukazi atali mukkiriza ng’ayagala okubeera naye, tamugobanga.
13 And the woman which hath an husband that beleeueth not, if he be content to dwell with her, let her not forsake him.
Era omukazi omukkiriza alina bba atali mukkiriza naye ng’amwagala, tamuvangako.
14 For the vnbeleeuing husband is sanctified to the wife, and the vnbeleeuing wife is sanctified to the husband, els were your children vncleane: but nowe are they holie.
Kubanga omusajja atali mukkiriza ayinza okufuulibwa omukkiriza ng’ayambibwa mukyala we omukkiriza, oba omukyala atali mukkiriza ayinza okufuulibwa omukkiriza ng’ayambibwa bba omukkiriza. Kubanga bwe kitaba ekyo abaana bammwe banditwaliddwa ng’abatali balongoofu naye ku lw’ekyo abaana bammwe baba balongoofu.
15 But if the vnbeleeuing depart, let him depart: a brother or a sister is not in subiection in such things: but God hath called vs in peace.
Kyokka oyo atali mukkiriza bw’ayagala okwawukana, baawukane; mu nsonga eyo omusajja omukkiriza oba omukyala taasibwenga mu ekyo, kubanga Katonda ayagala abaana be okubeera n’eddembe.
16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt saue thine husband? Or what knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt saue thy wife?
Ggwe omukazi omukkiriza omanyi otya ng’olirokola balo? Oba ggwe omusajja omukkiriza omanyi otya ng’olirokola mukazi wo?
17 But as God hath distributed to euery man, as the Lord hath called euery one, so let him walke: and so ordaine I, in all Churches.
Buli omu abeere mu bulamu Mukama bwe yamuwa, era Katonda mwe yamuyitira mw’abatambuliranga. Ekyo ky’ekiragiro kye mpa ekkanisa zonna.
18 Is any man called being circumcised? let him not gather his vncircumcision: is any called vncircumcised? let him not be circumcised.
Eyayitibwa ng’amaze okukomolebwa aleme kugamba nti ssinga teyakomolebwa, n’oyo eyakkiriza nga si mukomole aleme kufaayo ku kukomolebwa.
19 Circumcision is nothing, and vncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandements of God.
Kubanga okukomolebwa si kintu era obutakomolebwa si kintu, wabula ekikulu kwe kukwata amateeka ga Katonda.
20 Let euery man abide in the same vocation wherein he was called.
Buli omu abeerenga mu kuyitibwa Katonda kwe yamuyitiramu.
21 Art thou called being a seruant? care not for it: but if yet thou maiest be free, vse it rather.
Oba nga wayitibwa ng’oli muddu ekyo kireme okuba ekikulu; naye bw’oba ng’ofunye omukisa okufuuka ow’eddembe, gukozese.
22 For he that is called in the Lord, being. a seruant, is the Lords freeman: likewise also he that is called being free, is Christes seruant.
Kubanga eyayitibwa Mukama nga muddu, Mukama yamufuula wa ddembe, n’oyo eyali ow’eddembe yafuuka muddu wa Kristo.
23 Yee are bought with a price: be not the seruants of men.
Mwagulibwa na muwendo noolwekyo temufuukanga baddu ba bantu.
24 Brethren, let euery man, wherein hee was called, therein abide with God.
Kale abooluganda, buli kifo kyonna omuntu yenna ky’alimu, mwe yayitirwa abeere mu ekyo.
25 Nowe concerning virgines, I haue no commandement of the Lord: but I giue mine aduise, as one that hath obtained mercie of the Lord to be faithfull.
Naye ku ky’abatafumbirwanga wadde okuwasa, sirina kiragiro kiva eri Mukama wabula Mukama mu kusaasira kwe yampa amagezi agayinza okwesigibwa kwe nnaasinziira okubawa ekirowoozo kyange.
26 I suppose then this to bee good for the present necessitie: I meane that it is good for a man so to be.
Kino nkirowooza nga kirungi, olw’embeera eya kaakano, nga kirungi omuntu okusigala nga bw’ali.
27 Art thou bounde vnto a wife? seeke not to be loosed: art thou loosed from a wife? seeke not a wife.
Obanga oli mufumbo tosaanye kwawukana na munno. Naye obanga wayawukana n’omukazi, tonoonya wa kuwasa.
28 But if thou takest a wife, thou sinnest not: and if a virgine marrie, shee sinneth not: neuerthelesse, such shall haue trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.
Kyokka omusajja bw’awasa aba tayonoonye, era n’embeerera bw’afumbirwa naye aba tayonoonye. Wabula abafumbo, obufumbo bujja kubaleetera emitawaana gye nandiyagadde mwewale.
29 And this I say, brethren, because the time is short, hereafter that both they which haue wiues, be as though they had none:
Naye kino kye mbategeeza abooluganda nti ekiseera kiyimpawadde. Noolwekyo abo abalina abakazi babe ng’abatabalina.
30 And they that weepe, as though they wept not: and they that reioyce, as though they reioyced not: and they that bye, as though they possessed not:
N’abo abakaaba babe ng’abatakaaba, n’abo abasanyuka babe ng’abatasanyuka. N’abo abagula ebintu babe ng’abatalina kintu kye bayita kyabwe.
31 And they that vse this worlde, as though they vsed it not: for the fashion of this worlde goeth away.
Era n’abo abakozesa eby’oku nsi kuno bireme okubamalamu ennyo, kubanga ensi eya kaakano eggwaawo.
32 And I would haue you without care. The vnmaried careth for the things of the Lord, howe he may please the Lord.
Naye kye mbagaliza mmwe bwe buteraliikirira. Omusajja atali mufumbo yeemalira ku bya Mukama, engeri gy’asanyusa Mukama.
33 But hee that is maried, careth for the things of the world, how he may please his wife.
Naye omufumbo yeeraliikirira bya nsi, nga bw’anaasanyusa mukazi we;
34 There is difference also betweene a virgine and a wife: the vnmaried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy, both in body and in spirite: but shee that is maried, careth for the things of the worlde, howe shee may please her husband.
aba yeesazeemu, ng’atta aga n’aga. N’omukazi atali mufumbo n’embeerera bafaayo ku bintu bya Mukama, babeerenga batukuvu mu mubiri ne mu mwoyo. Naye omukazi omufumbo yeeraliikirira bya mu nsi, engeri gy’anaasanyusaamu bba.
35 And this I speake for your owne commoditie, not to tangle you in a snare, but that yee follow that, which is honest, and that yee may cleaue fast vnto the Lord without separation.
Bino mbyogera olw’okubagasa, so si kubaziyiza kuwasa na kufumbirwa. Kubanga njagala musobole okuweereza Mukama nga tewali birala bibaziyiza okweweerayo ddala.
36 But if any man thinke that it is vncomely for his virgine, if shee passe the flower of her age, and neede so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them be maried.
Omusajja bw’alowooza nti aba teyeeyisizza bulungi eri omuwala oyo gw’ayogereza bw’atamuwasa, bwe bafumbiriganwa, aba tayonoonye.
37 Neuerthelesse, hee that standeth firme in his heart, that hee hath no neede, but hath power ouer his owne will, and hath so decreed in his heart, that hee will keepe his virgine, hee doeth well.
Naye oyo asobola okwefuga ng’alina omutima omunywevu, n’asalawo awatali kuwalirizibwa nti omuwala tajja kumuwasa, aba asazeewo bulungi.
38 So then hee that giueth her to mariage, doeth well, but he that giueth her not to mariage, doeth better.
Kale oyo awasa omuwala gw’ayogereza aba akoze bulungi, naye oyo atamuwasa y’aba asinze okukola obulungi.
39 The wife is bounde by the Lawe, as long as her husband liueth: but if her husband bee dead, shee is at libertie to marie with whome she will, onely in the Lord.
Omukazi omufumbo abeera kitundu kya bba, bba bw’aba akyali mulamu. Naye bba bw’afa olwo ayinza okufumbirwa omusajja omulala gw’ayagala, kyokka omusajja oyo ateekwa kuba mu Mukama waffe yekka.
40 But shee is more blessed, if she so abide, in my iudgement: and I thinke that I haue also the Spirite of God.
Naye nze ndowooza nti alina omukisa oyo singa taddayo kufumbirwa. Era ndowooza nga nange nnina Omwoyo wa Katonda.
