1 Corinthians 15
1 And I make known to you, brothers, the good news that I proclaimed to you, which you also received, in which you also have stood,
Ashaalongo ajangunji, nnaino ngunapinga ninkumbushiyanje ga Ngani ja Mmbone jinannungushiyenje jila, na mmanganya gunnjiposhelenje nikwiishimilika najo.
2 through which you are also being saved, if you hold fast [to] the word—what I proclaimed as good news to you—unless you believed in vain.
Kwa pitila jenejo nnatapulwanga, ibhaga nngabhikangaga mmitima guninnungushiyenje, na ibhaga kulupalila kwenunji kukabhe kwayoyo.
3 For I delivered to you as most important what I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Writings,
Nne nashinkumpanganga ntenga gwa mana gunaposhele gula, kuti a Kilishitu bhashinkuwa kwa ligongo lya yambi yetu, malinga shigalugula Majandiko ga Ukonjelo.
4 and that He was buried, and that He has risen on the third day according to the Writings,
Na kabhili bhashinkushikwa, na lyubha lya tatu gubhayushiywe, malinga Majandiko ga Ukonjelo shigalugula.
5 and that He appeared to Cephas, then to the Twelve,
Na kabhili nammalanjilenje kuti, gubhaakoposhele a Kepa, na kungai likumi limo na bhabhili bhala.
6 afterward He appeared to above five hundred brothers at once, of whom the greater part remain until now, and some also fell asleep;
Gakapiteje genego gubhaakoposhelenje bhandu mmia nng'ano gwanakamo, mpaka pungujandika pano bhananji bhabhakotonji, ikabheje bhananji bhawilenje.
7 afterward He appeared to James, then to all the apostles.
Kungai gubhaakoposhele a Yakobho na ashimitume bhowe.
8 And last of all—as to the untimely birth—He also appeared to me,
Bhakaakoposhelanjeje bhowe, gubhangoposhele na nne, naliji malinga mwana abhelekwe mobha gakanabhe malila.
9 for I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the Assembly of God,
Pabha nne najwakumpelo munkumbi gwa ashimitume, na wala ngapinjikwa kushemwa ntume, pabha nashinkulishima likanisha lya a Nnungu.
10 and by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace that [is] toward me did not come in vain, but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God that [is] with me;
Ikabheje kwa nema ja a Nnungu, njibha ntume malinga shini shino, nema jabho kwangu nne jangabha jayoyo. Nne njitenda liengo kupunda bhowe, nngabha nne, ikabhe nema ja a Nnungu jitenda liengo na nne.
11 whether, then, I or they, so we preach, and so you believed.
Ikabheje nkali nneyo, ibhe bhanganyabho, eu nne, jejino ni ngani jitulunguya na ni jinkukulupalilanga.
12 And if Christ is preached, that He has risen out of the dead, how [do] certain among you say that there is no resurrection of [the] dead?
Pabha, nnaino inalunguywa kuti a Kilishitu bhashiyuka bhakaweje, ashaajenunji bhana bhaakombolanga bhuli kubheleketa kuti bhawilenje bhakayukanga?
13 And if there is no resurrection of [the] dead, neither has Christ risen;
Bhai, monaga bhawilenje bhakayukanga, nabhalabho a Kilishitu bhangayuka,
14 and if Christ has not risen, then our preaching [is] void, and your faith [is] also void,
na monaga a Kilishitu bhangayuka, bhai kulunguya kwetu kwayoyo na ngulupai jenunji jayoyo.
15 and we are also found [to be] false witnesses of God, because we testified of God that He raised up the Christ, whom He did not raise if then dead persons do not rise;
Punda gowego, uwe tunabhoneka tubhakong'ondela bha unami kwa a Nnungu, pabha tushikong'ondela kuti, a Nnungu bhashinkwaayuya a Kilishitu, ibhaga kweli bhawilenje bhakayukanga, bhai bhangaayuya.
16 for if dead persons do not rise, neither has Christ risen,
Pabha ibhaga kweli bhawilenje bhakayukanga, bhai nabhalabho a Kilishitu bhangayuka.
17 and if Christ has not risen, your faith is vain, you are yet in your sins;
Monaga a Kilishitu bhangayuka, bhai ngulupai jenunji jayoyo, launo nninginji na yambi yenunji.
18 then, also, those having fallen asleep in Christ perished;
Punda genego bhowe bhawilenje bhali bhalundenenje na a Kilishitu, bhaobhilenje.
19 if we only have hope in Christ in this life, we are to be most pitied of all men.
Ibhaga twaakulupalile a Kilishitu kwa jene ndamo jinope, bhai uwe tubhandu bha bhonelwa shiya, kupunda bhandu bhowe pa shilambolyo.
20 And now, Christ has risen out of the dead—He became the first-fruits of those sleeping,
Ikabheje ni kweli kuti, a Kilishitu bhayushile bhakaweje, ni bha ntai kuyuka kwa bhawilenje.
21 for since through man [is] death, also through Man [is] a resurrection of the dead,
Pabha, malinga shiwo shishiika pashilambolyo kupitila mundu, nneyo peyo na ga yuka bhawilenje, gashiika kupitila mundu juna.
22 for even as in Adam all die, so also in the Christ all will be made alive,
Malinga bhandu shibhawanganga nilundana na a Adamu, nneyo peyo bhowe shibhayuywanje nilundana na a Kilishitu.
23 and each in his proper order: Christ, a first-fruit, afterward those who are the Christ’s in His coming,
Ikabheje kila mundu shaayuywe namuna jakwe, bha ntai kuyuywa ni a Kilishitu, nikwiya bhowe bhalinginji bha a Kilishitu, mobha gushibhaishe.
24 then—the end, when He may deliver up the kingdom to God, even the Father, when He may have made all rule useless, and all authority and power.
Penepo shiguishe mpelo, a Kilishitu pushibhaakamuye Atati a Nnungu upalume gwabho, bhapeyaga kila upalume na ukulungwa na kila mashili.
25 For it is necessary for Him to reign until He may have put all the enemies under His feet.
Pabha a Kilishitu bhanapinjikwa bhatagwale, mpaka a Nnungu pushibhaabhikanje ashaamagongo ajabho pa makongono gabho.
26 The last enemy is done away with—death.
Mmagongo nnjabho shaapeywe kumpelo, shaabhe shiwo.
27 For He put all things under His feet, and when one may say that all things have been subjected, [it is] evident that He is excepted who subjected all things to Him,
Pabha Majandiko ganalugula, “A Nnungu bhashikwiibhika indu yowe pamakongono gabho.” Ikabheje Majandiko pugaalugula kuti, “Indu yowe shibhailibhatile nkwiitagwala,” penepo a Nnungu bhakwa muindumo, pabha bhenebho ni bhakwiibhika indu yowe pai jabho a Kilishitu.
28 and when all things may be subjected to Him, then also the Son Himself will be subject to Him, who subjected to Him all things, that God may be the all in all.
Ikabheje indu yowe ibhikwaga pai ja ukulungwa gwa a Kilishitu, penepo Mwana nnyene shaabhikwe pai ja ukulungwa gwa a Nnungu, nkupinga a Nnungu bhatagwale indu yowe.
29 Seeing what will they do who are immersed for the dead, if the dead do not rise at all? Why are they also immersed for the dead?
Bhai, ibhaga kuyuka kwakwa, bhuli, bhandunji bhaabhatishwanga kwa ligongo lya bhawilenje bhala, shibhatendanje nndi? Ibhaga bhawilenje bhakayukanga, kwa nndi kubhatishwa kwa ligongo lya bhawilenje?
30 Why do we also stand in peril every hour?
Uwe kwa nndi tunakwiibhika mwaajogoya mobha gowe?
31 I die every day, by the glorying of you that I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Ashaalongo ajangu, nne mobhaga nguti, ngunakwiibhika nshiwo! Shingwiipunila kwenu mmanganyanji, ni lundana kwenunji na a Kilishitu Yeshu Bhakulungwa bhetu, inandenda nunguye gegano.
32 If I fought with wild beasts in Ephesus after the manner of a man, what [is] the advantage to me if the dead do not rise? Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!
Ibhaga tumbilila kwangu kukaliji kwa shigundupe, bhai, kukomana kwangu na makoko ga munng'itu, yani bhandunji bha ku Epesho bhala, kumbwaile nndi? Monaga bhawilenje bhakayukanga, bhai, “Tulye na papila, pabha malabhi shituwe.”
33 Do not be led astray; evil communications corrupt good manners;
Nnatembwanje, mikungulu jangali ja mmbone jinakumpuganya mundu.
34 wake up, as is right, and do not sin; for some have an ignorance of God; I say [it] to you for shame.
Nkolanje lunda kabhili malinga shinkupinjikwanga, nnatendanje yambi. Pabha bhananji bhakakwaamanyanga a Nnungu ukoto. Ngunabheleketa gegano, nkolanje oni!
35 But someone will say, “How do the dead rise?”
Ikabheje mundu shaabhuye, “Bhaayukanga bhuli bhawilenje? Shibhayukanje na shiilu shashi?”
36 Unwise! You—what you sow is not quickened except it may die;
Mmwe libhelu! Shinkupanda shikamela shikatandubhe kuwa.
37 and that which you sow, you do not sow the body that will be, but a bare grain, it may be of wheat, or of someone of the others,
Inkupanda mmbeju, pana mmbeju ja mpunga, eu jina na nngabha litepo lyowe.
38 and God gives a body to it according as He willed, and its proper body to each of the seeds.
A Nnungu bhanakuipa litepo, malinga shibhaapinga bhayene, kila mmbeju na litepo lyakwe.
39 All flesh [is] not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another of fishes, and another of birds;
Iilu ikalingana. Bhandunji bhashikolanga iilu yabhonji, na bhannyama yabhonji, na ijuni nneyo peyo iilu yabhonji, na yamaki nneyo peyo.
40 and [there are] heavenly bodies and earthly bodies; but one [is] the glory of the heavenly, and another that of the earthly;
Ipali iilu ya kunnungu, na iilu ya pa shilambolyo, kukonja kwa iilu ya kunnungu ni kuna, na kukonja kwa iilu ya pa shilambolyo kuna.
41 one glory of sun, and another glory of moon, and another glory of stars, for star differs from star in glory.
Kupali kukonja kwa lyubha, na kukonja kwa mwei, na kukonja kwa ndondwa, nkali ndondwa inalekanila kwa konja.
42 So also [is] the resurrection of the dead: it is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption;
Nneyo peyo, pushiibhe ga yuka bhawilenje, malinga mmbeju, shiilu shinashikwa pai niangabhanika, ikabheje shinayuywa nibha shiilu sha ngaangabhanika.
43 it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;
Shiilu sha gundu pushishikwa shinanyegala, pushiyuywa shili na ukonjelo, na pushishikwa shangali mashili, ikabheje pushiyuywa shili na mashili.
44 it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body; there is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body;
Pushishikwa ni shiilu sha shibhelekwe, ikabheje pushiyuywa ni shiilu sha mbumu. Shipali shiilu sha shibhelekwe, na nneila peila shipali shiilu sha mbumu.
45 so also it has been written: “The first man Adam became a living creature,” the last Adam [is] for a life-giving spirit,
Pabha Majandiko ganataya, “Mundu jwa ntai a Adamu, apengenywe nipegwa gumi”, ikabheje Adamu jwa kumpelo, ni Mbumu akwaapanganga bhandu gumi.
46 but that which is spiritual [is] not first, but that which [was] natural, afterward that which [is] spiritual.
Ikabheje shilongolela nngabha shiilu sha Mbumu, ikabhe shiilu sha shibhelekwe, kungai nikwiya shiilu sha mbumu shila.
47 The first man [is] out of the earth—earthly; the second Man [is] the LORD out of Heaven;
Adamu jwa ntai papengenywe kwa lilongo, paaliji jwa pa litaka, Adamu jwa bhili kwakopweshe kunnungu.
48 as [is] the earthly, such [are] also the earthly; and as [is] the heavenly, such [are] also the heavenly;
Bhandunji bha pa shilambolyo, bhanalandana na mundu apengenywe na lilongo jula, na bhalinginji bha kunnungu bhala, bhanalandana na akopweshe kunnungu jula.
49 and according as we bore the image of the earthly, we will also bear the image of the heavenly.
Malinga shitulendene naka jwene apengenywe na lilongo jula, nneyo peyo shitulandane naka jwene akopweshe kunnungu jula.
50 And this I say, brothers, that flesh and blood are not able to inherit the Kingdom of God, nor does the corruption inherit the incorruption.
Bhai, ashaalongo ajangunji, nne nguti nnei, iilu yetu ipengenywe kwa nnyama na minyai ikaulishi Upalume gwa a Nnungu, wala shiangabhanika, shikalishi shangaangabhanika.
51 Behold, I tell you a secret: we indeed will not all sleep, but we will all be changed;
Mpilikananje, ngunakummalanjilanga shinjubhi, nngabha kuti tubhowe tupingawa, ikabhe tubhowe shitutindiganywe,
52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, in the last trumpet, for it will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed;
shangupe, malanga ga mmbila ja kumpelo, mbuti kukapila kwa meyo. Pabha mbalapala shijione, bhawilenje shibhayukanje na bhanaangabhanyikanje kabhili, na uwe shitutindiganywe.
53 for it is necessary for this corruptible to put on incorruption, and this mortal to put on immortality;
Pabha inapinjikwa kila shiangabhanyika shinaangabhanyishe, yani shiilu shawa, shinawe.
54 and when this corruptible may have put on incorruption, and this mortal may have put on immortality, then will be brought to pass the word that has been written: “Death was swallowed up—to victory;
Bhai, shiilu sha angabhanyika shino shibhaga sha ngaangabhanyika, yani shiilu shawa shila, shibhaga nngabha shawa, penepo shigatimilile Majandiko ga Ukonjelo ga kuti, “Shiwo shilepele na shipeshiywe.”
“Shiwo, mashili gako gali kwei?” “Kupoteka kwako kuli kwei?” (Hadēs g86)
56 And the sting of death [is] sin, and the power of sin the Law;
Shiwo shinakola mashili ga bhulaga, kwa ligongo lya yambi, na yambi inakola mashili kwa ligongo lya Shalia ja a Musha.
57 and to God—thanks, to Him who is giving us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ;
Ikabheje tunatenda eja kwa a Nnungu bhakututenda tukombole, kupitila ku Bhakulungwa bhetu a Yeshu Kilishitu.
58 so that, my beloved brothers, become steadfast, unmovable, abounding in the work of the LORD at all times, knowing that your labor in the LORD is not vain.
Bhai, ashaalongo ajangunji nkupingwanga, nnjimangananje nninginji mwiishimilikenje ukoto. Mpundanje kamula liengo lya Bhakulungwa, nnikumumanyanga kuti, liengo lyenunji ku Bhakulungwa nngabha lya yoyo.
