1 Corinthians 10
1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
Achinjangu ngusaka mmanyilile yakuti, achatati ŵetu ŵaliji wose paasi liunde, ni wose ŵajombweche salama Bahali ja Shamu.
2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
Wose ŵabatiswe mu liunde ni mu bahali, kuti alumbikane ni che Musa.
3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat;
Wose ŵalile chakulya chilachila cha mbumu.
4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
Iyoyo wose ŵang'wele chakung'wa chilachila cha mbumu, pakuŵa ŵang'wele meesi gagatyochele mu lwala lwa mbumu luŵalukuiye, lwala lula lwaliji Kilisito nsyene.
5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
Nambo achajinji nnope mu wele mpingo wo, Akunnungu ngananonyelwa nawo, kwapele ŵawile ni iilu yao yajenele mwipululu.
6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.
Kwapele indu yo yose yatyochele kutujamuka uwe tukaŵa ŵandu ŵakulajila yangalumbana mpela ŵanyawo iŵatite pakulajila.
7 Neither be ye idolaters, as [were] some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
Ngasinnyipopelela inyago mpela ŵane iŵatite kutenda, mpela itite pakulembekwa Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu, “Ŵandu ŵatemi kulya ni kung'wa, nipele ŵajimi ni kutyala kwa kupunilana.”
8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
Tukatenda chigwagwa mpela ŵane mwa ŵanyawo iŵatite pakupanganya, pa lyuŵa limo ŵajasiche ŵandu elufu ishilini na tatu.
9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.
Tukaalinga Kilisito mpela ŵane mwa ŵanyawo iŵalinjile, wose ŵajasiche kwa kulumikwa ni majoka.
10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.
Ngasinnyinyita mpela ŵane mwa ŵanyawo iŵatite kunyinyita, ŵaulajikwe ni katumetume jwa kwinani jwakuichisya chiwa.
11 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come. (aiōn g165)
Yeleyo yose yaagwilile ŵanyawo kuti uŵe tujiganyikwe, yalembekwe kutujamuka uweji ŵatuli mmoŵa gaambesi. (aiōn g165)
12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.
Kwapele mundu jwakuliganisya kuti ajimi kwakulimbila alilolechesye anaiche kugwa.
13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God [is] faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear [it.]
Kulinjikwa kunkulinjikwa kuli kwa kawaida kwapata ŵandu. Akunnungu ali ŵakukulupilichika, nombewo ngasanneka nlinjikwe kupunda ukombole wenu. Nambo pankulinjikwa, ŵelewo champe machili ga kupililila ni litala lya kukopochela.
14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.
Kwaligongo lyo achalongo achinjangu ŵakunonyelwa ntame kwakutalichila kuipopelela inyago.
15 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.
Nguŵecheta ni ŵanyamwe ŵandu ŵaali ni umanyilisi, muiganisyeje ingunsalila yi.
16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?
Chikombe chitukuchitumia pa chakulya cha Ambuje ni chitukwatogolela Ambuje, tukulumbikana ni miasi ja Kilisito. Patukulya nkate, tukulumbikana ni chiilu cha Kilisito.
17 For we [being] many are one bread, [and] one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.
Pakuŵa nkate uli umo, namuno tuli ŵajinji, tuli chiilu chimo, pakutipala wose tukugaŵana nkate umo pewo.
18 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?
Nchilole achila chakuchipanganya ŵandu ŵa ku Isilaeli, ŵelewo ŵakulya mbopesi sya pa chilisa, akukamulangana pamo kutyosya mbopesi syo kwa Akunnungu.
19 What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?
Ana nyile uli? Chakulya chachitajikwe mbopesi kwa inyago, chikwete malumbo? Pane chinyago chikwete malumbo?
20 But I [say], that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.
Ngwamba! Chingusaka kusala chili chelechi: Mbopesi sya ŵandu ŵangakwamanyilila Akunnungu akusityosya kwa masoka ni ngaŵa kwa Akunnungu. Noneji ngangusaka ŵanyamwe nlumbikane ni masoka.
21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils.
Ngankombola kuching'welela chikombe cha Ambuje akuno nkung'welela chikombe cha masoka. Ngankombola kulya chakulya cha Ambuje ni papopo nkulya chakulya cha masoka.
22 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
Ana tukusaka kwatendekasya Ambuje akole wiu? Ana tukuganisya tukwete machili nnope kwapunda ŵelewo?
23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
Ŵandu ŵane akuti, “Indu yose ngaikukanywa,” nambo une nguti, ngaŵa yose pe yaikuŵajila. Ni ŵandu ŵane akuti, “Indu yose ngaikukanywa,” nambo une nguti, ngaŵa yose pe yaikukamuchisya.
24 Let no man seek his own, but every man another’s [wealth].
Mundu jwalijose mwa ŵanyamwe akalisosela kupoka kwakwe nsyene pe, nambo asoseje ni kupoka kwa achinjakwe.
25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, [that] eat, asking no question for conscience sake:
Yose yaikusumikwa pakusumichisya malonda nlyeje pangausya, kwa liwamba lya miningwa jenu.
26 For the earth [is] the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof.
Pakuŵa Malembelo ga Akunnungu gakuti, “Chilambo chili chao Ambuje ni yose yaili mwelemo ili yakwe.”
27 If any of them that believe not bid you [to a feast], and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake.
Naga mundu jwangakunkulupilila Kilisito annaliche pa chakulya, ni ŵanyamwe nkusaka kwaula, nlyeje yaili yose ichammichile pangausyausya kwa liwamba lya miningwa jenu.
28 But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth [is] the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof:
Nambo ansalilaga mundu, “Chakulya chi chetaje mbopesi kwa inyago,” nkalya, kwaligongo lya mundu jwammanyisye ni kwa liwamba lya miningwa,
29 Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another [man’s] conscience?
nguti, kwa liwamba lya miningwa, nambo ngaŵa miningwa jenu nambo nningwa wa ajula jwammanyisye. “Kwa chichi kulechelelwa kwangu une kulamulikwe ni nningwa wa mundu jwine?
30 For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?
Iŵaga une ngwatogolela Akunnungu kwa chakulya chingulya, kwa chichi mundu alalatile une kwa ligongo lya chakulya chinaatogolele Akunnungu?”
31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
Nipele, pankutenda chachilichose iŵeje kulya namuno kung'wa mwitendekanye yose kwaligongo lya ukulu wa Akunnungu.
32 Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God:
Nkasamwakuŵasya Ŵayahudi atamuno Ŵagiliki atamuno mpingo wa Akunnungu, wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito.
33 Even as I please all [men] in all [things], not seeking mine own profit, but the [profit] of many, that they may be saved.
Mmeje mpela une, ngusaka kwanonyelesya ŵandu wose mu indu yose inguipanganya. Pakuŵa ngangulisosela kupoka kwangu nansyene, nambo ngwasosela ŵandu kupoka kuti akulupuswe.
