1 Corinthians 7
1 Now concerning the question in your letter. It is well for a man to have no intercourse with a woman,
Ahusu amambo ngamsimbiye: Huli isala aje shinza unume asahag'one nushe wakwe.
2 but because there is so much immorality let each man have his own wife; and let each women have her own husband.
Walakini eshi injelo nyinchi iya zinaa shila ashe awe nu nume wakwe, na shila ashe awe nu nume wakwe.
3 Let the husband give his wife her due, and likewise the wife her husband. The wife is not mistress of her own person,
Unume ahwanziwa apele ushi ihaki yakwe iiyahwengama, shishila ushi nape hwanume.
4 but her husband is; and in the same way the husband is not master of his own person, but his wife is.
Saga yushi yatawala ubele gwakwe, nume. Na shishila unume nape sagatawala ubele gwake ila ushialinao.
5 Do not refuse one another, unless it is only temporary and by mutual consent, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again, lest through your lack of self-control Satan begin to tempt you to sin.
Mngaje ahwimane lwamgona peka, maana mwentehene masala gengo. Muwombaje shesho nkamzahugaje amasala gapute. Epo mzawezye awelelano nantele peka, aje usietono asahahwezye huwapele ingelo nkhasanga muwe ni kiasi.
6 But what I have just said is by way of concession, not command.
Walakini iyanga ega amambo ninene sagaje malajizyo.
7 I would that every one lived as I do; but each man has his own special gift from God, one this, another that.
Inyonywa aje shila muntu angahali nazine shindeho. Eshi shila weka alinishipaji shakwe afume hwa Ngolobhe. Ono alinishipaji eshi, ola alinishipaji eshi.
8 But to the unmarried, and the widows, I say that it is well for them to remain as I am.
Hwawasaga wengwilwe na awafyelwe inyanga aje shinza aje wasangale bila ahwengwe, nanzi sindehone.
9 If, however, they are not exercising self-control, by all means let them marry; for marriage is better than the fever of passion.
Walakini nkasangawawajie huizijile wahuanziwa ahwengwe. Aje aheri ahwengwe kuliko anyonywe.
10 But to those already married my commandment is - and not mine, but the Lord’s - that a wife is not to leave her husband;
Eshi hwawala wa wegwilwe ihimbapela indajizyo, saga nene ila yu Bwana. “Ushi asahalehane nu nume wakwe.”
11 (or if she has already left him let her either remain as she is, or be reconciled to him), and also that a husband is not to put away his wife.
Eshi nkanza alehane afume hwa nuwene asangale shesho asahahwenge, au nkasangashesho akondane nunumeo na unume asahapele.”
12 To the rest it is I who am speaking, not the Lord. If any brother has a wife who is not a believer, if he is willing to live with her, let him not send her away.
Walakini wawasangee iyanga- ane, saga yu Bwana- aje nkaholo wowonti ali nushi yasanga aputa ayetesha akhale nao, sagahwaziwa huneshe.
13 And a woman whose husband is not a believer, if he is willing to live with her, let her not separate from him.
Nkashee alinunume yasagaputa na ahwenteha ahale nao asahaneshe.
14 For the unbelieving husband is consecrated through union with his believing wife; and the unbelieving wife, through union with her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unholy, but now they are consecrated to God.
Hwa nume yasanga aputa ahoziwa nola yalinu lweteho ushi wakwe. Na ushi yasanga aputa ahoziwa nola unume yalinulweteho. Nkasanga sishesho awana wwenyu indisaga wazelu, walakini ulioli wozilwe.
15 But if the unbelieving partner be determined to leave, separation let it be. In such cases the believing husband or wife is not under bondage. But it is into peace that God has called us.
Umpenzi yasagaputa nkasongola asongalaje. Hunamna eyo, usahala nendu sagawapinywa ni ndopo yao. Ungolobhe atikwizizye akhale huamani.
16 For how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?
Umenye wele aje ushi angakombola unumeo? Au umenye wele aje unume angakombola ushi wakwe?
17 Only whatever be the lot in life to which God has assigned each one - and whatever the condition in which he was living when God called him- -in that let him continue. Such is the rule I give in all the churches.
Shila weka ahale amaisha hwa Bwana shawagawiye, shila wweka nanzi Ungolobhe shakwizizye awene. Owu longozi wane huviwanza vyonti.
18 So, was any man called, being circumcised? Let him not become uncircumcised. Was any man called when he was uncircumcised? Let him not be circumcised.
Aleho yahaleho atahiliwe ahakwizi welwe akombolewe? Asijaribu kuondoa alama ya tohara yake. Yupo yeyote aliyeitwa katika imani hajatahiriwa? Sanga ahwaziwa atahiliwe.
19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing. Keeping God’s commands in everything.
Hueli indola atahiliwa au sanga atahiliwe nagamo amatatizo. Shashili na matatizo hu tii iagizo lya Ngolobhe.
20 Whatever be the condition of life in which he was called, in that let him continue.
Shila weka asagale shakwizizye Ungolobhe na hukombole.
21 Were you called in slavery? Let not that trouble you; but if you can become free make use of the opportunity.
Uhali muwomba mbombo amasala Ungolobhe lwahakwizizye? Usahasaje ahusu elyo. Nkashele uwajie awe huru wombanga shesho.
22 For the slave who has been called in the Lord is the Lord’s freedman; and in the same way, the free man who is called is Christ’s slave.
Hwa weka yahakwiziwilwe nu Bwana aje muomba mbombo uyo umntu huru hwa Bwana. Nazi shila weka yali huru lwahakwiziwilwe akombolewe awe muomba mbombo wa Kristi.
23 You have been brought with a price; do not become slaves to men.
Amwe mkalililwe hu hung'alama hije msahawe waomba mbombo hwa wantu.
24 Where each man stood when he was called, there, brothers, let him stay, close to God.
Wasahala na walendu wane, humaisha gonti shila weka ahakwiziwilwe akombolewe tusagale shishesho
25 I have no command from the Lord to give you concerning unmarried women; but I give you my opinion, and it is that of a man who, through the Lord’s mercy, is deserving of your confidence.
Eshi wala wonti wagawejile kamwe sanga indi ni ndajizyo afume hwa Bwana. Ila ihumbapela iseo zyane nazi shindeho. Husanjilo zya Bwana, zizihuaminiha
26 I think then, that in view of the time of suffering now imminent, it is best for a man to remain as he is.
Kwa hiyo, isewa eshohunongwa ya malawa, shinza unume asagale nazi shaleho.
27 Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be free. Are you free from the marriage bond? Do not seek for a wife.
Upinyilwe nushi nishiapo sha hwengane? Usahahanze uuhuru afume hwelyo. Uli nu huru wafume hwashe au saganyegwilwe? Usahahanze ushi.
28 Yet if you do not marry, you have not done wrong; and if a girl marries, she has not done wrong. Such people, however, will have trouble in worldy affairs, and I wish to spare you.
Walakini nku yenje sanga uwombile imbiwi. Wasele wala wawahwengana wahugaga amalawa gagali mbalimbali nane ihwanza aje embepuzye ego.
29 Indeed, brothers, the time that remains to us has been shortened; so let those who have wives live as if they had none,
Eshi iyanga ishi awasahala na walendu wane amasala mafupi. Ahwande eshi nahuendelele, walaw wawali na hawashe wakhale aje sagawali na washe.
30 let those who weep be as though they did not weep, those who rejoice as though they did not rejoice, those who buy as though they did not possess,
Wonti wawazungumie wawenje saga wazungumie na wonti wawashiye wahalije sagawashinye, na wonti wawakala ivintu vyovyonti waweje sanga watawala shoshonti.
31 and those who use the world as though using it sparingly. For the present phase of the world is passing away.
Na wonti wawawomba imbombo zya munsi waweje sanga washunghuliha liohonti. Yaani amatindo ga munsi idujile humalishilo wakwe.
32 So I want you to be free from all anxieties. An unmarried man is anxious about the Lord’s business, how he may please the Lord;
Ihwanza unume yalihura humalawa gonti. Unume yasaga ayejile ahwihusisha ni vintu vivihumsu uBwana, isha hupendezye umwene.
33 but a married man is anxious about worldly affairs, how he may please his wife, and he is divided in his mind.
Lakini unume ya yejile ahuihusisha na mambo ya dunia, namna ya hupendezye ushi wakwe,
34 Again, the woman who is widow, or the maid, is anxious about the Lord’s business, how she may be pure in body and in mind; but the married woman is anxious about worldly affairs, how she may please her husband.
abaguhene ushi yasagaayegwilwe au unende ahuihusisha ni vintu kuhusu Bwana, inamna ya huibagula hu bele na mpepo. Lakini ushi yayengwilwe ahuihusisha ahusu ivintu vya munsi namna ya hufulaisye unume wakwe.
35 It is in your own interest that I say this; not that I may entangle you in a snare, but that I may help you to serve the Lord with fitting and undistracted service.
Iyanga ishi hufaida yenyu, mwemwe na sanga imbeha umtengo humwenyu. Iyanga eshi nalioli aje muwajie huiweshe tayari hwa Bwana bila azigwe nashashonti.
36 If, however, a father feels that he is not treating his virgin daughter in a seemly manner, in leaving her unmarried beyond the flower of her age, and so the matter is urgent, let him do what she desires; he commits no sin. Let the marriage take place.
Lakini umntu nkasewa apotilwe humuombele ishishi umwanamwali wakwe, huu seo zwake zili ni ngovu hani leha wegane nao nanzishahwanzya. Sanga mbiwi.
37 On the other hand, he who is firm in his purpose and is under no compulsion, but is free to carry out his own wishes, and who has determined to keep his daughter unmarried, does well.
Lakini awombile shahuanza saga ahwenga nemo ihaja ya ulazima, nkawajiye atawale ihamu yakwe anzawombe shinza nkasanga ahwenga.
38 So he that gives his daughter in marriage is doing right, and he who keeps her unmarried will be doing right, and he who keeps her unmarried will be doing better.
Oyo yahumwenga umwana mwali wakwe awombe shinza, wowonti ola yasaluye sagaahwenga anza wombe shinza hani.
39 A wife is bound to her husband during his lifetime; but if her husband dies, she is free to marry whomever she will, provided it be in the Lord.
Ushi apinyilwe nu nume wakwe uwakati wa ali momi. Lakini nkuleshe unume afyiye ali huru ahwengwe na wowonti yagene, lakini katika Bwana tu.
40 But she is happier, in my judgment, if she remains as she is; and I think that I, too, have the Spirit of God.
Bado katika ahwamle hwane anza songwe hani nkahale nazi shaleho. Na isewa aje nane pia indi nu Mpepo ufinjile.
