1 Corinthians 1
1 Paul called to be an Apostle of Iesus Christ, through the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,
Paulo ywakemilwe ni Kristo pangika Mtume kwa mapenzi ga Nnongo, ni Sosthene nnuna witu.
2 Vnto the Church of God, which is at Corinthus, to them that are sanctified in Christ Iesus, Saintes by calling, with all that call on the Name of our Lord Iesus Christ in euery place, both their Lord, and ours:
Kwa likanisa lya Nnongo lyalibile Korintho, kwa balo ambabo babekilwe wakfu mu Yesu Kristo, babakemilwe panga bandu atakatifu twaandikya kae balo boti babakema lina lya Ngwana witu Yesu Kristo mahali palo, Ngwana wabe ni witu.
3 Grace be with you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Iesus Christ.
Neema na amani ibe kwinu buka kwa Nnongo tate bitu ni Ngwana witu Yesu Kristo.
4 I thanke my God alwayes on your behalfe for the grace of God, which is giuen you in Iesus Christ,
Masoba gote nimsukuru Nnongo wango kwa ajili yinu, kwa sababu ya neema ya Nnongo ywabile awapeile Yesu Kristo.
5 That in all things ye are made rich in him, in all kinde of speach, and in all knowledge:
Abapangite kuwa matajiri mu'kila ndela, katika longela pamope maarifa gake.
6 As the testimonie of Iesus Christ hath bene confirmed in you:
Abapangite matajiri, kati ushuhuda kuhusu Kristo wautithibitisha kuwa kweli nkati yinu.
7 So that ye are not destitute of any gift: wayting for the appearing of our Lord Iesus Christ.
Kwa eyo ipungwa kwaa karama ya kiroho, kati samubile na kilulu so kuulinda ufunuo wa Ngwana witu Yesu Kristo.
8 Who shall also confirme you vnto the ende, that ye may be blamelesse, in the day of our Lord Iesus Christ.
Alowa kumwimarisha mwenga mpaka mwisho, ili kana mukaumilwe lisoba lya Ngwana witu Yesu Kristo.
9 God is faithfull, by whom ye are called vnto the fellowship of his Sonne Iesus Christ our Lord.
Nnongo ni mwaminifu ywabile abakemile mwenga mu'ushirika wa mwana wake, Yesu Kristo Ngwana witu.
10 Nowe I beseeche you, brethren, by the Name of our Lord Iesus Christ, that ye all speake one thing, and that there be no dissensions among you: but be ye knit together in one mind, and in one iudgement.
Nambeambe niasihi mwainja ni numbwango, pitya lina lya Ngwana witu Yesu Kristo, panga mwabote muyikityange, ni panga kana kube ni banganika nkati yinu. Niasihi muungane pamope mu'nia jimo.
11 For it hath bene declared vnto me, my brethren, of you by them that are of the house of Cloe, that there are contentions among you.
Mana bandu ba nyumba ya Kloe batumakiye kuwa kubile ni banganika nkati yinu.
12 Nowe this I say, that euery one of you saith, I am Pauls, and I am Apollos, and I am Cephas, and I am Christs.
Nibile na mana yee: Kila yumo abaya “nenga na ywaa Paulo”, au “nenga ni ywaa Apolo,” au nenga nI ba Kefa” au “nenga ni wa Kristo.”
13 Is Christ deuided? was Paul crucified for you? either were ye baptized into the name of Paul?
Je! Kristo atebanganika? Je Paulo atisulubilwa kwaajili yinu? Je! mwatibatizwa kwa lina lya Paulo?
14 I thanke God, that I baptized none of you, but Crispus, and Gaius,
Nenda kumshukuru Nnongo kuwa nimbatiliza kwaa yeyete, ila Krispo ni Gayo.
15 Lest any should say, that I had baptized into mine owne name.
Yee yabile panga ntopo ywoywoti aweza baya mwabatizwa kwa lina lyango.
16 I baptized also the houshold of Stephanas: furthermore knowe I not, whether I baptized any other.
(Pia natekuabatiza ba nyumba ya Sephania. Zaidi ya palo, nitangite kwaa kati nambatiza mundu ywenge yeyote).
17 For CHRIST sent me not to baptize, but to preache the Gospel, not with wisdome of wordes, lest the crosse of Christ should be made of none effect.
Kwa kuwa, Kristo antumile kwaa batiza ila ubili injili. Antumile longela kwa maneno ga ekima ya kimundu, ili panga ngupu ya msalaba wa Kristo kana ubuke.
18 For that preaching of the crosse is to them that perish, foolishnesse: but vnto vs, which are saued, it is the power of God.
Kwa kuwa ujumbe wa msalaba ni upuuzi kwa balo batiwaa. Lakini kwa balo ambabo Nnongo atikwalopwa, ni ngupu ya Nnongo.
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisedome of the wise, and will cast away the vnderstanding of the prudent.
Kwa kuwa iandikilwe, “Nalowa kuiharibu hekima ya ywabile ni busara. Nalowa kuuharibu ufahamu wa babile ni malango.”
20 Where is the wise? where is the Scribe? where is the disputer of this worlde? hath not God made the wisedome of this worlde foolishnesse? (aiōn g165)
Abile kwako mundu ywabile ni busara? ywabile kwako ywabile ni elimu? ywabile kwako ywabaya nga mshawishi wa dunia yee? Je Nnongo aigalambwile kwaa hekima ya dunia yee no pangika ulalo? (aiōn g165)
21 For seeing the worlde by wisedome knewe not God in the wisedome of GOD, it pleased God by the foolishnesse of preaching to saue them that beleeue:
Buka dunia ipangika mu'hekima yake intangite kwaa Nnongo, impendeza kwaa Nnongo mu'ulalo wabe wa hubiri ili kubalopwa balo baaminiya.
22 Seeing also that the Iewes require a signe, and the Grecians seeke after wisdome.
Kwa Ayahudi kulokiya ishara ya miujiza ni kwa Ayunani upala hekima.
23 But wee preach Christ crucified: vnto the Iewes, euen a stumbling blocke, and vnto the Grecians, foolishnesse:
Lakini tumuhubiri Kristo ywaatisulubilwa, ywabile kikwazo kwa Ayahudi na nga ulalo kwa Ayunani.
24 But vnto them which are called, both of the Iewes and Grecians, we preach Christ, the power of God, and the wisedome of God.
Lakini kwa balo babakemile ni Nnongo, Ayahudi ni Ayunani, twamuhubiri Kristo kati ngupu ni hekima ya Nnongo.
25 For the foolishnesse of God is wiser then men, and the weakenesse of God is stronger then men.
Kwa kuwa ulalo wa Nnongo wabile ni hekima kuliko ya bandu, ni udhaifu wa Nnongo wabile ni ngupu kuliko ya bandu.
26 For brethren, you see your calling, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble are called.
Lola wito wa Nnongo nnani yinu, ainja ni nnumbwa ngo. Ni baingi kwaa nkati yinu mwabile ni hekima mu'viwango vya bandu. Ni baingi kwa nkati yinu mwabile ni ngupu. baingi kwaa nkati yinu mubelekwi mu ukolo.
27 But God hath chosen the foolish thinges of the world to confound the wise, and God hath chosen the weake thinges of the worlde, to confound the mightie things,
Lakini Nnongo asawile ile ya kilalo ya dunia ili kwiaibisha yabile ni hekima. Nnongo asawile sa'kinyatike mu'dunia kukiabisha sa kibile ni ngupu.
28 And vile things of the worlde and thinges which are despised, hath God chosen, and thinges which are not, to bring to nought thinges that are,
Nnongo asawile chelo cha hali ya pae ni chabile chakisalaulilwe mu'dunia. Asawile ata ilebe ambayo yabalangilwe kwaa pangika ilebe, kwa kuipanga ilebe kwaa yabile ni yhamani.
29 That no flesh shoulde reioyce in his presence.
Apangite nyoo ili kana abe yeyote ywabile ni sababu ya kuipunia nnonge yake.
30 But ye are of him in Christ Iesus, who of God is made vnto vs wisedome and righteousnesse, and sanctification, and redemption,
Kwa sababu ya chelo chaakipangite Nnongo, nambeambe mubile nkati ya Kristo Yesu, ywabile apangike hekima kwa ajili yinu kuoma kwa Nnongo. Abile nga haki yitu, utakatifu ni ukombozi.
31 That, according as it is written, Hee that reioyceth, let him reioyce in the Lord.
Kati matokeo, kati liandiko lyatibaya, “Ywaisipu, aisipu mu'Nngwana.”
