1 Corinthians 3
1 And I, brothers, was not able to speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly—as to babies in Christ;
Walongu wayangu, neni mweziti ndiri kutakula na mwenga gambira wana wina na Rohu gwa Mlungu, ntakula na mwenga gambira wantu wa pasipanu, gambira wanonu mumakaliru ga Shikristu.
2 with milk I fed you, and not with meat, for you were not yet able, but not even yet are you now able,
Nuwalandiziya mwenga maweri, pota na kuwapanani shiboga shikamala, toziya mwenga maweni shirii. Ata vinu mwakala ndiri kushiliya.
3 for yet you are fleshly, for where [there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are you not fleshly, and walk in the manner of men?
Toziya mwenga mwankulikala gambira wantu wa pasipanu ntambu yawalikala. Hashi, yanakaka ndiri kuwera kwana weya na kulilewana pakati penu? Goseri aga gawalanguziyani mwenga mwankali wantu wa pasipanu na mwankulikala gambira pasipanu ntambu yapafira.
4 For when one may say, “I, indeed, am of Paul,” and another, “I—of Apollos,” are you not fleshly?
Yumu gwenu pakatakula, “Neni nufata Paulu,” Na yumonga kalonga, “Neni numufata Apolu.” Hashi, mtenda ndiri gambira wantu wa pasipanu ntambu yawatenda?
5 Who, then, is Paul, and who Apollos, but servants through whom you believed, and to each as the LORD gave?
Hashi, Apolu ndo gaa? Hashi, Paulu ndo gaa? Twenga twa wantumintumi hera wa Mlungu, yatuwajegerani mwenga njimiru. Kila yumu gwetu katenda lihengu lyakapananitwi na Mtuwa.
6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God was giving growth;
Neni nyaliti mbeyu na Apolu katiriti mashi, kumbiti Mlungu ndo yakayimeriziyiti mbeyu ayi.
7 so that neither is he who is planting anything, nor he who is watering, but He who is giving growth—God;
Ulii yakayaliti na ulii yakitiliti mashi shintu ndiri, kumbiti Mlungu gweka yakuwi ndo yakavitenditi vyoseri avi vikuli.
8 and he who is planting and he who is watering are one, and each will receive his own reward according to his own labor,
Muntu yakayaliti na muntu yakitiliti mashi, woseri watenda lihengu lyakulinganira, Mlungu hakamfupi kila muntu kulawirana na lihengu lyakatenditi.
9 for we are fellow-workmen of God; you are God’s tillage, God’s building.
Toziya twenga twawalongu, tutenda lihengu pamuhera na Mlungu na mwenga mwalirambu lya Mlungu na mwenga mwanumba ya Mlungu.
10 According to the grace of God that was given to me, as a wise master-builder, I have laid a foundation, and another builds on [it],
Kwa utanga wa mafupu gampananitwi na Mlungu, ntenditi lihengu gambira mnyawa numba na ntuliti lyanjiru, muntu gwingi kankunyawa palyanjiru ali. Kumbiti kila muntu kaliloli weri ntambu yakanyawa.
11 for no one is able to lay another foundation except that which is laid, which is Jesus the Christ;
Kwahera muntu gwingi yakaweza kutula lyanjiru lyamonga pa ulii yakalituliti kala, lyanjiru ali ndo Yesu Kristu.
12 and if anyone builds on this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw—
Pa lyanjiru ali, wantu wamonga hawanyawi kwa zahabu ama madini gawagashema mpiya ama kwa mabuwi ga mpiya zivuwa, ama mitera ama miteti ama lyasi.
13 the work will become visible of each, for the day will declare [it], because it is revealed in fire, and the work of each, what kind it is, the fire will prove;
Na uherepa wa lihengu lya kila muntu haliwoneki mulishaka lya Kristu pakashigubutula. Toziya mulishaka ali motu hagugubutuli lihengu lya kila muntu na motu hagupimi na kulanguziya uherepa wakuwi.
14 if the work of anyone remains that he built on [it], he will receive a wage;
Payiwera shakanyawiti muntu palyanjiru alu pashilungula ndiri mumotu agu, su mnyawa numba hakawanki lifupu.
15 if the work of any is burned up, he will suffer loss, but himself will be saved, but so as through fire.
Kumbiti lihengu lya muntu yoseri palilungulira, kumbiti yakanyawiti hakaagamiziyi lifupu lyakuwi, kumbiti mweni hakalopoziwi gambira kusolopoka kulawa mumotu.
16 Have you not known that you are a temple of God, and the Spirit of God dwells in you?
Hashi, mwenga muvimana ndiri kuwera mwenga Mwanumba nkulu ya Mlungu na Rohu gwa Mlungu kalikala mngati mwemwenga?
17 If anyone ruins the temple of God, God will ruin him; for the temple of God is holy, which you are.
Su muntu pakaihalibisiya Numba nkulu ya Mlungu, Mlungu hakamuhalabisiyi yomberi. Toziya Numba nkulu ya Mlungu ndo inanagala na maweni mwenga ndo handa numba ya Mlungu.
18 Let no one deceive himself; if anyone seems to be wise among you in this age—let him become a fool, that he may become wise, (aiōn g165)
Namulipayira! Muntu yoseri pakati pa mwenga pakalihola kana luhala lwa ntambu ya pasipanu, mbaka kaweri mzyigizyigi su kapati kuwera na luhala lwa nakaka. (aiōn g165)
19 for the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God, for it has been written: “Who is taking the wise in their craftiness”;
Toziya luhala lwa wantu wa pasipanu luwera luzyigizyigi kulongolu kwa Mlungu. Malembu Mananagala ntambu yagalonga, “Mlungu kankuwagomiziya yawawera na luhala muwujanja wawu.”
20 and again, “The LORD knows the reasonings of the wise, that they are vain.”
Na Malembu Mananagala gamonga kayi, “Mtuwa kavimana kuwera maholu ga yawawera na luhala gafaa ndiri.”
21 So then, let no one glory in men, for all things are yours,
Su muntu nakalitumbiria kila shintu shawatenda wantu, toziya kila shintu sha mwenga.
22 whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things about to be—all are yours,
Kaweri Paulu ama Apolu ama Kefa ama pasipanu ama makaliru ama kuhowa, ama vitwatira vya vinu na vya shakapanu, vyoseri vya mwenga.
23 and you [are] Christ’s, and Christ [is] God’s.
Na mwenga mwawantu wa Kristu na Kristu gwa Mlungu.
