1 Corinthians 7
1 Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: [It is] good for a man not to touch a woman.
Inte taas xaafida mala asi macashako gakontta aggizako lo7okko. Gido attin laymmape naagistanas atuma asas issas issas macha du. Macashas issineys issineys azinay do.
2 Nevertheless, [to avoid] fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.
Azinay ba machcheys koshizaz wursi ootho. Machaka ba azinas koshizazi ubbaa oothu.
4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.
Machi asatethi izis xalala gidontta azinasara kotha. Hessaththoka azina asatethi izas xalala gidontta machcheyssara kotha.
5 Defraud ye not one the other, except [it be] with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.
Nam7ay dosan woossas giidi zoren gido giidi qachida gallasatape attin hara gallas issay issas akaye goopite. Hessa geedon intes intena haaroy xoonin xala7ey intena paccontta mala nam7ay issife aqqite.
6 But I speak this by permission, [and] not of commandment.
Ta hessa gizay coo azazo mala gidontta zore zorays.
7 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.
Asi wuri ta mala machcho ekontta dizako ta dosayss. Gido attin issi issi asas Xoossafe imettida duma imotay dees. Issas duma issi imotay dees. Hankoyssas qass hara imotay dees.
8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.
Buro ekonttaytane gelonttayta gishshi qasseka azinay hayqida macashata gishshi ta gizay istti gelonttane ekontta ta mala dizako isttas lo7o gayss.
9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.
Gido attin istti bena naaganas danda7onttayta gidiko geleton eketon Coo amon xuugistanape ekoyne geloy lo7o.
10 And unto the married I command, [yet] not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from [her] husband:
Ekidaytasine gelidaytas ta immiza azazoy hayssakko. Hiskka Goda azazope attin ta azazo gidena. Azina gelida machcheya ba azinape shaaketufu.
11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to [her] husband: and let not the husband put away [his] wife.
Shaaketiza gidiko hara azina gelontta uttu. Akaye giiko ba azinara giigu. Azinayka ba machcho anjji yeddofo.
12 But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
Hanko asas qass ta hizgays. Hessa gizayka tana attin Goda gidena. Ammanontta macha diza ammanizadey machcheya izara daana dosikko izi izo anjjanas bessena.
13 And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.
Ammanontta azinay diza ammaniza maccashiya he ammanontta azinay izira daanas koyko iza izape anjjista baanas izis bessena.
14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
Gaasoyka ammanontta azinay ammaniza ba machcheyin anjjetes. Ammanontta maccashayaka ammaniza ba azinan anjjistawus. Hessatho hanontta aggiko inte yelida nayti tunata gidana shin ha7i qass anjjetidaytakko.
15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such [cases]: but God hath called us to peace.
Gido attin nam7afe issay ammanonttadey shaakistana koyko shaaketo. Adde gidin macca gidin ammanizadey hessa mala wogan qachetena. Xoossi nuna saron daana mala xeygides.
16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save [thy] husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save [thy] wife?
Hane ne ne azina ashanakone ay erazii? Woyko haysso ne ne machcho ashanakone ay erayii?
17 But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches.
Coo issi issi ura Xoossi xeygida malane Goday wothida mala deyo. Woossa keethatas ta wothiza wogay hessako.
18 Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.
Issadey ammananape kase qaxaretidazi gidiko qaxaretontta asa mala hanopo. Qass qaxaretontta dishe ammanidadeyka qaxaretofo.
19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.
Qaxaretin qaxaretontta aggin nam7ankka go7ay baawa. Wanna ayfe yoy Xoossa azazo polokko.
20 Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.
Issi issi uray ba xeygettida xeygetethan minni deyo.
21 Art thou called [being] a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use [it] rather.
Ammaniza wode ne aylee? Ne hessas daro metotopa; wozistana danda7iko wozista. Gaasoyka ayle gidi dishe Goda ammanidadey izi Goda goqakko. Hessaththoka ammaniza wode goqa gidonttadey izi Kiristoosas ayllekko.
22 For he that is called in the Lord, [being] a servant, is the Lord’s freeman: likewise also he that is called, [being] free, is Christ’s servant.
23 Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.
Inte miishan shametidista. Hessa gishshi asa aylle gidopite.
24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.
Ta ishato intefe issi issi uray ba xeygetida mala Xoossara minni deyo.
25 Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.
Gela7otane paanthata gishshi taas godape imettida azazoy deena. Gido attin Goda maarotethafe dendidayssan ta intes ammanetidade gidada intena zorays.
26 I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, [I say], that [it is] good for a man so to be.
Hayssa ha7i wode meto gaason inte ha7i diza mala dizako taas lo7o milates.
27 Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.
Ne machidade gidiko anjjanas koyopa. Machonttade gidiko machcho ekkanas koyopa.
28 But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.
Macho ekikoka nagara gidena. Gela7oyaka geliko nagara gidena. Gido attin ekkiza asati, gelizayti hayssa alameza bolla istta daro metoy gakkana. Ta qass hessi inte bolla gakontta aganayssa dosayss.
29 But this I say, brethren, the time [is] short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;
Ta ishato ta qofay hayssa malakko. wodezi qanthi gidida gishshi macha dizadey macha bayindade mala deyo.
30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;
Yekkizayti yekontta asa mala, ufa7ettizayti ufa7etontta asa mala gideto. Miishe shammidadentti shamettida miisha bess gi qopopeto.
31 And they that use this world, as not abusing [it]: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
Hayssa alameza miishan go7etizayti wursi go7etontta asa mala gid deeto. Gaasoyka Hayssa alameza hanoy adhanas deess.
32 But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:
Inte hirigay bayinda daana mala ta koyays. Machonttadey Goda ufayssanas Goda gishshi qopees.
33 But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please [his] wife.
Machidadey qass ba machchiyo ufayssanas hayssa alameza miishi qopees.
34 There is difference [also] between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please [her] husband.
Hayssan iza qofay nam77u keezi shaaketes. Gelontta macashiya woykko gela7oya Godaz xalala qopaysu. Izis gita qofayka ashonkka, ayanankka Godas dumatethikko. Gelidara gidiko ba azina ufayssanas hayssa alameza hano xalala qopaysu.
35 And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.
Ta hessa gizay intes lo7anaz qopadape attin intena daro qofan yeganas gidena. Taas gita qofay inte wozinay shaaketi nam7u kezontta inte Godan minnidi wogara deyanaskko.
36 But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of [her] age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.
Issadey ba oychida gela7oyo wogara oykontta aggiko izi wodeyka ciimi ciimi bikko ekkana koyko ba koyda mala ekko. Ekikone geliko lo7okko. Nagara gidena.
37 Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.
Gido attin hayssa ha yoozan iza wozinay qaaxontta bena haridi gela7oyo ekkike giidi muritida uray lo7o oothides.
38 So then he that giveth [her] in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth [her] not in marriage doeth better.
Hessa gishshi gela7oyo ekidadey lo7o oothides. Ekonttadeyka adhetha lo7o oothides.
39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.
Issi macashi azinay paxxa diza wode kumethan ba azinara qachistadusu. Azinay hayqiko ba koyda ura gelana danda7aysu. Iza gelanadey ammanizade gido attin gelu.
40 But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.
Ta qofa mala gidiko iza gelontta dizako daro ufayssan deyandusu. Taasika tanan Xoossa ayanay diza milates.
