1 Corinthians 15
1 MOREOVER, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
Naizvozvo, hama, ndinokuzivisai evhangeri yandakakuparidzirai, yamagamuchirawo, neyamumire mairi;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
uye yamunoponeswawo nayo, kana muchibatisisa inzwi reevhangeri randakaparidza kwamuri, kunze kwekuti makatenda pasina.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
Nokuti ndakakumikidza kwamuri pakutanga izvo zvandakagamuchirawo, kuti Kristu wakafira zvivi zvedu, zvichienderana nemagwaro;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
uye kuti wakavigwa, uye kuti wakamutswa nezuva retatu, zvichienderana nemagwaro;
5 And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:
uye kuti wakaonekwa kuna Kefasi, pashure kune vanegumi nevaviri;
6 After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
shure kweizvozvo wakaonekwa kuhama dzinopfuura mazana mashanu nguva imwe, vazhinji vavo vachiripo kusvikira ikozvino, asi vamwewo varara;
7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
shure kweizvozvo wakaonekwa kuna Jakobho; pashure kuvaapositori vese.
8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.
Uye pakupedzisira kwevese akaonekwa neniwo, sekune wakazvarwa nguva isina kufanira.
9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
Nokuti ini ndiri mudikisa wevaapositori, handifaniri kunzi muapositori, nokuti ndakashusha kereke yaMwari.
10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
Asi nenyasha dzaMwari ndiri zvandiri, uye nyasha dzake dziri pandiri hadzina kuva pasina; asi ndakabata zvikuru kupfuura vese; zvakadaro handisi ini, asi nyasha dzaMwari dzineni.
11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
Naizvozvo, kana ndiri ini kana ivo, saizvozvo tinoparidza uye saizvozvo makatenda.
12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
Zvino kana Kristu achiparidzwa kuti wakamutswa kubva kuvakafa, vamwe pakati penyu vanoreva sei kuti hakuna kumuka kwevakafa?
13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:
Asi dai pasina kumuka kwevakafa, naKristu haana kumutswa;
14 And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.
uye kana Kristu asina kumutswa, naizvozvo kuparidza kwedu hakuna maturo, nerutendo rwenyuwo harwuna maturo.
15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.
Nesuwo tinowanikwa tiri zvapupu zvaMwari zvenhema, nokuti takapupura zvaMwari kuti wakamutsa Kristu iye waasina kumutsa, kana kuri kuti vakafa havamutswi.
16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:
Nokuti dai vakafa vasingamutswi, Kristu haanawo kumutswa;
17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
uye dai Kristu asina kumutswa, rutendo rwenyu haruna maturo; muchiri muzvivi zvenyu.
18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.
Naizvozvo nevarere muna Kristu vaparara.
19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
Dai muupenyu huno tine tariro muna Kristu chete, tinonzwisa tsitsi kukunda vanhu vese.
20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
Asi ikozvinowo Kristu wakamutswa kubva kuvakafa, akava chibereko chekutanga chevarere.
21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
Nokuti sezvo nemunhu rufu rwakauya, kumuka kwevakafawo kwakauya nemunhu.
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
Nokuti vese muna Adhamu sezvavanofa, saizvozvowo vese muna Kristu vachararamiswa.
23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.
Asi umwe neumwe padzoro rake; Kristu chibereko chekutanga, tevere avo vari vaKristu pakuuya kwake,
24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
kozouya kuguma, paachazokumikidza umambo kuna Mwari, ivo Baba, paachaparadza kutonga kwese neushe hwese nesimba.
25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
Nokuti anofanira iye kutonga, kusvikira aisa vese vavengi pasi petsoka dzake.
26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
Muvengi wekupedzisira uchaparadzwa ndirwo rufu.
27 For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith, all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.
Nokuti wakaisa zvinhu zvese pasi petsoka dzake. Asi kana achiti zvinhu zvese zvakaiswa pasi pake, zviri pachena kuti ari kunze wakaisa zvinhu zvese pasi pake.
28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
Zvino kana zvinhu zvese zvaiswa pasi pake, ipapo Mwanakomanawo amene achaiswa pasi paiye wakaisa zvese pasi pake, kuti Mwari ave zvese mune zvese.
29 Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?
Ko, vanobhabhatidzirwa vakafa vachaita sei kana vakafa vasingatongomutswi? Vakagobhabhatidzirwa vakafa nemhaka yei?
30 And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?
Nemhaka yei nesu tiri panjodzi awa rega-rega?
31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
Ndinofa zuva nezuva, ndinopika nokuzvikudza pamusoro penyu kwandinako muna Kristu Jesu Ishe wedu.
32 If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die.
Kana ndakarwa nenzira yevanhu nezvikara paEfeso, zvinondibatsirei, kana vakafa vasingamutswi? Ngatidye nekunwa, nokuti mangwana tinofa.
33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
Musanyengerwa; kushamwaridzana nevakaipa kunoodza tsika dzakanaka.
34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
Pengenukai nenzira yekururama uye musatadza, nokuti vamwe vane kusaziva Mwari; ndinotaura kuti muve nenyadzi.
35 But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
Asi umwe achati: Vakafa vanomutswa sei? Uye vanouya nemuviri wakaita sei?
36 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:
Dununu, icho chaunodzvara iwe hachiitwi chipenyu kunze kwekuti chafa;
37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:
uye icho chaunodzvara, haudzvari muviri uchavapo, asi tsanga isina chinhu, kana yezviyo kana yezvimwe;
38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
asi Mwari anoipa muviri paanoda napo, nekumbeu imwe neimwe muviri wayo pachayo.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.
Nyama yese haisi nyama imwe; asi imwe inyama yevanhu, imwewo inyama yemhuka, imwewo yehove, imwewo yeshiri.
40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.
Kune miviriwo yekudenga, nemiviri yenyika; asi kubwinya kweyekudenga ndekumwe, asi kweyenyika ndekumwe.
41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.
Kumwe kubwinya ndekwezuva, nekumwe kubwinya ndekwemwedzi, uye kumwe kubwinya ndekwenyeredzi, nokuti nyeredzi inosiyana neimwe nyeredzi pakubwinya.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
Kwakadarowo kumuka kwevakafa. Kunodzvarwa mukuora, kunomutswa mukusaora;
43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
kunodzvarwa mukuzvidzwa, kunomutswa mukubwinya; kunodzvarwa muutera, kunomutswa musimba.
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
Kunodzvarwa kuri muviri wechisikirwo, kunomutswa kuri muviri wemweya. Kune muviri wechisikirwo, uye kune muviri wemweya.
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
Zvakanyorwawo saizvozvo zvichinzi: Munhu wekutanga Adhamu wakaitwa munhu anorarama; Adhamu wekupedzisira mweya unoraramisa.
46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
Asi zvinotanga hazvisi zvemweya asi zvechisikirwo; tevere zvemweya.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
Munhu wekutanga wakabva panyika, ndewevhu; munhu wechipiri ndiIshe anobva kudenga.
48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
Sewevhu, vakadarowo avo vevhu; uye sewekudenga, vakadarowo vekudenga.
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
Uye sezvatakatakura chimiro chewevhu, tichatakurawo chimiro chewekudenga.
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
Zvino ndinoreva izvi, hama, kuti nyama neropa hazvingagoni kugara nhaka yeushe hwaMwari; nokuora hakungagari nhaka yekusaora.
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
Tarirai, ndinokuudzai chakavanzika: Hatingavati tese, asi tichashandurwa tese;
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
nenguva diki-diki, mukuhwaira kweziso, pahwamanda yekupedzisira; nokuti hwamanda icharira, uye vakafa vachamutswa mukusaora, nesu tichashandurwa.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
Nokuti ichi chinoora chinofanira kupfeka kusaora, neichi chinofa chipfeke kusafa.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
Zvino kana ichi chinoora chapfeka kusaora, neichi chinofa chapfeka kusafa, ipapo kuchaitika shoko rakanyorwa rinoti: Rufu rwakamedzwa mukukunda.
Iwe rufu, rumborera rwako rwuripi? Iwe guva, kukunda kwako kuripi? (Hadēs g86)
56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
Rumborera rwerufu chivi, nesimba rechivi murairo.
57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Zvino ngaavongwe Mwari anotipa kukunda naIshe wedu Jesu Kristu.
58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
Naizvozvo, hama dzangu dzinodikanwa, simbai, musingazungunuswi, nguva dzese muchiwedzerwa pabasa raIshe muchiziva kuti kubata kwenyu hakusi pasina muna Ishe.
