1 Corinthians 10
1 And I do not wish you to be ignorant, brothers, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,
Walongu wayangu nfira muvimani shilii shashiwalawiriti wambuyi wa twenga yawamfatiti Musa. Woseri waweriti pasi pa ulolera wa liwundu lilii na woseri walokiti mubahali njeri ilii.
2 and all were immersed into Moses in the cloud, and in the sea;
Woseri wabatizitwi waweri wantumini wa Musa muliwundi lilii na mubahali njeri ilii.
3 and all ate the same spiritual food,
Woseri waliyiti shiboga shiraa shilii sha shirohu.
4 and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they were drinking of a spiritual rock following them, and the rock was the Christ;
Vilaa vilii walanditi shakulanda shiraa shilii sha shirohu. Womberi walanditi kulawa mulitalawu lulii lya shirohu lwaluwafatiti, litalawu ali ndo Kristu mweni.
5 but in the most of them God was not well pleased, for they were strewn in the wilderness,
Pamuhera na hangu, wavua wawu wamfiriziyiti ndiri Mlungu na mauti gawu gapalasiyitwi kushiwala.
6 and those things became types of us, for our not passionately desiring evil things, as also these desired.
Vinu, goseri aga galawira kutuberiziya twenga, su natuwera wantu wakufira vidoda gambira womberi ntambu yawatenditi.
7 Neither become idolaters, as certain of them, as it has been written: “The people sat down to eat and to drink, and stood up to play”;
Namguwira vinyagu gambira wamu wawu ntambu yawatenda. Malembu Mananagala ntambu yagalonga, “Wantu walivagiti kuliya na kulanda na wagoloka na wavina vidoda.”
8 neither may we commit whoredom, as certain of them committed whoredom, and there fell in one day twenty-three thousand;
Namuhumba gambira wamu wawu ntambu yawahumbiti, wahowiti wantu elufu malongu mawili na miya tatu kwa lishaka limu.
9 neither may we tempt the Christ, as also certain of them tempted, and perished by the serpents;
Natumjera Mtuwa Kristu gambira wamu wawu tambu yawamjeriti, woseri wahowiti kwa kulumwa na wanjoka.
10 neither murmur, as also some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer.
Namuhinginika gambira wamu wawu ntambu yawatenda, su walagitwi na lihoka lya kulaga lyakatumitwi na Mlungu.
11 And all these things happened to those persons as types, and they were written for our admonition, to whom the end of the ages came, (aiōn g165)
Su shitwatila ashi shiwapatiti shiwera mfanu kwa wamonga na galembitwi su kutuberiziya twenga, yatulikala mumashaka gapakwegera kupelera. (aiōn g165)
12 so that he who is thinking to stand—let him observe, lest he fall.
Ulii yakalihola kuwera kagangamala, kaloli hweri nakaguwa.
13 No temptation has taken you—except that of man; and God is faithful, who will not permit you to be tempted above what you are able, but He will make, with the temptation, also the outlet, for your being able to bear [it].
Majeru gampatiti mahenga ndiri kwa wantu. Mlungu kaaminika, yomberi hapeni kawaleki mjerwi kupita makakala genu. Kumbiti pamjerwa hakawapanani makakala ga kuhepelera na njira ya kulawira amu.
14 For this reason, my beloved, flee from the idolatry;
Su, waganja wangu mtiri kuviguwira vinyagu.
15 as to wise men I speak—judge what I say.
Nankutakula na mwenga, wantu yawawera na luhala, muliholi maweni aga gantakula.
16 The cup of the blessing that we bless—is it not the fellowship of the blood of the Christ? The bread that we break—is it not the fellowship of the body of the Christ?
Patulutekelera lutekeru lwa Mtuwa, hashi, tulikolerana ndiri pamuhera na mwazi gwa Kristu? Hashi, patumega libumunda tulikolerana pamuhera ndiri na nshimba ya Kristu?
17 Because one bread, one body, are we the many—for we all partake of the one bread.
Toziya kwana libumunda limu hera, tembera twenga yatuwera tuvuwa, tuwera nshimba yimu, toziya twawoseri tubagulana pamuhera mulibumunda liraa ali.
18 See Israel according to the flesh! Are those not eating the sacrifices in the fellowship of the altar?
Mwawaloli wantu wa Israeli, walii yawaliya shilii shashilaviyitwi tambiku su walikolerana pamuhera na Mlungu kupitira tambiku zyawamlavilira.
19 What do I say then? That an idol is anything? Or that a sacrifice offered to an idol is anything?
Vinu, ntakuli shishi? Shiboga shawashitambikiriti shinyagu shintu shikulu kuliku shiboga? Na vinyagu avi, vintu vikulu?
20 [No, ] but that the things that the nations sacrifice—they sacrifice to demons and not to God; and I do not wish you to come into the fellowship of the demons.
Ndala! Shantakula neni ndo ashi. Tambiku zyawazilaviya wantu yawammana ndiri Mlungu wamlavilira ndiri Mlungu, walavilira washamshera. Na neni nfira ndiri nakamu mwenga mulikolerani pamuhera na washamshera.
21 You are not able to drink the cup of the LORD and the cup of demons; you are not able to partake of the table of the LORD and of the table of demons;
Mwenga hapeni mlandiri lutekeru lwa Mtuwa, uganu mwankulandira lutekeru lwa washamshera, hapeni muwezi kuliya shiboga pameza pa Mtuwa na pameza pa washamshera.
22 do we arouse the LORD to jealousy? Are we stronger than He?
Hashi, tufira kumtenda Mtuwa kaweri na weya? Hashi, twana makakala ng'anji kuliku yomberi?
23 All things are lawful to me, but not all things are profitable; all things are lawful to me, but not all things build up;
Su wantu wamu pakati penu walonga, “Vintu vyoseri vilewelerwa ndiri, kumbiti nonga vyoseri ndiri viherepa. Vintu vyoseri vyavilewelewitwi, kumbiti nonga vyoseri ndiri vinyawa.”
24 let no one seek his own—but each another’s.
Muntu yoseri pakati penu nakasakula mota yakuwi mweni, kumbiti kasakuli mota ya myaguwi.
25 Eat whatever is sold in the meat-market, not inquiring, because of the conscience,
Mliyi shoseri shilii shawawuza kusoku pota na kulikosiya kosiya toziya ya nfiru zyenu ziweri na unakaka,
26 for the earth and its fullness [are] the LORD’s;
toziya Malembu Mananagala galonga, “Pasipanu na vyoseri vyaviweramu viwera vya Mtuwa.”
27 and if anyone of the unbelieving calls you, and you wish to go, eat all that is set before you, inquiring nothing, because of the conscience;
Handa muntu yakamwamini ndiri Kristu pakawashemera kuliya shiboga na mwamuwa kugenda, mliyi vyoseri vyakawatandireni pota ya kukosiya kosiya toziya ya nfiru zyenu.
28 and if anyone may say to you, “This is a thing sacrificed to an idol,” do not eat, because of that one who showed [it], and of the conscience, for the LORD’s [is] the earth and its fullness:
Kumbiti muntu pakawagambireni, “Shiboga ashi washitambikilira vinyagu,” Su toziya ya ulii yakawagambireni na toziya ya nfiru zyenu, namliya.
29 and conscience, I say, not of yourself, but of the other, for why [is it] that my liberty is judged by another’s conscience?
Ntakula, toziya ya nfiru, nfiru ya yenu ndiri kumbiti nfiru yakuwi ayu yakawagambireni. Hamunkosiyi, iwera hashi ulekeziwu wa neni utozwi na nfiru ya muntu gwingi?
30 And if I partake thankfully, why am I spoken of [as] evil, for that for which I give thanks?
Payiwera neni nonga mayagashii Mlungu toziya ya shiboga shaneni, iwera hashi muntu gwingi kanongi kwa shiboga shanongiti mayagashii Mlungu?
31 Whether, then, you eat, or drink, or do anything, do all to the glory of God;
Su shoseri shamtenda, kuliya ama kulanda, mtendi goseri kwa ukwisa wa Mlungu.
32 become offenseless, both to Jews and Greeks, and to the Assembly of God;
Namuwera shileweleru kwa Wayawudi ama kwa wantu yawawera ndiri Wayawudi ama kwa Shipinga sha wantu shawamjimira Mlungu.
33 as I also please all in all things, not seeking my own profit, but that of many—that they may be saved.
Mulikali gambira neni, nfira kuwaherepeziya wantu woseri kwa vyoseri vyantenda, toziya nsakula ndiri mota yangu namweni, kumbiti mota ya woseri wapati kulopoziwa.
