1 Corinthians 7
1 Now concerning the things about which you wrote: 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 But, because of sexual immoralities, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.
3 Let the husband fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband.
Azinay ba machcheys koshizaz wursi ootho. Machaka ba azinas koshizazi ubbaa oothu.
4 The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband. Likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife.
Machi asatethi izis xalala gidontta azinasara kotha. Hessaththoka azina asatethi izas xalala gidontta machcheyssara kotha.
5 Do not deprive one another, unless it is by consent for a season, that you may give yourselves to prayer, and may be together again, that Satan does not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.
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 this I say by way of concession, not of commandment.
Ta hessa gizay coo azazo mala gidontta zore zorays.
7 Yet I wish that all people were like me. However each one has his own gift from God, one of this kind, and another of that kind.
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 But I say to the unmarried and to widows, it is good for them if they remain even as I am.
Buro ekonttaytane gelonttayta gishshi qasseka azinay hayqida macashata gishshi ta gizay istti gelonttane ekontta ta mala dizako isttas lo7o gayss.
9 But if they do not have self-control, let them marry. For it's better to marry than to burn.
Gido attin istti bena naaganas danda7onttayta gidiko geleton eketon Coo amon xuugistanape ekoyne geloy lo7o.
10 But to the married I command—not I, but the Lord—that the wife not leave her husband
Ekidaytasine gelidaytas ta immiza azazoy hayssakko. Hiskka Goda azazope attin ta azazo gidena. Azina gelida machcheya ba azinape shaaketufu.
11 (but if she departs, let her remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband not leave his wife.
Shaaketiza gidiko hara azina gelontta uttu. Akaye giiko ba azinara giigu. Azinayka ba machcho anjji yeddofo.
12 But to the rest I—not the Lord—say, if any brother has an unbelieving wife, and she is content to live with him, let him not leave her.
Hanko asas qass ta hizgays. Hessa gizayka tana attin Goda gidena. Ammanontta macha diza ammanizadey machcheya izara daana dosikko izi izo anjjanas bessena.
13 The woman who has an unbelieving husband, and he is content to live with her, let her not leave her husband.
Ammanontta azinay diza ammaniza maccashiya he ammanontta azinay izira daanas koyko iza izape anjjista baanas izis bessena.
14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified in the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the brother. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are 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 Yet if the unbeliever departs, let there be separation. The brother or the sister is not under bondage in such cases, but God has called you 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 how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?
Hane ne ne azina ashanakone ay erazii? Woyko haysso ne ne machcho ashanakone ay erayii?
17 Only, as the Lord has assigned to each one, as God has called each, so let him walk. So I command in all the churches.
Coo issi issi ura Xoossi xeygida malane Goday wothida mala deyo. Woossa keethatas ta wothiza wogay hessako.
18 Was anyone called having been circumcised? Let him not become uncircumcised. Has anyone been 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 each person stay in that calling in which he was called.
Issi issi uray ba xeygettida xeygetethan minni deyo.
21 Were you called being a slave? Do not let that bother you, but if you get an opportunity to become free, use it.
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 who was called in the Lord being a slave is the Lord's free person. Likewise he who was called being free is Christ's slave.
23 You were bought with a price. Do not become slaves of people.
Inte miishan shametidista. Hessa gishshi asa aylle gidopite.
24 Brothers, let each one, in whatever condition he was called, stay in that condition with God.
Ta ishato intefe issi issi uray ba xeygetida mala Xoossara minni deyo.
25 Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment from the Lord, but I give my judgment as one who has obtained mercy from the Lord to be trustworthy.
Gela7otane paanthata gishshi taas godape imettida azazoy deena. Gido attin Goda maarotethafe dendidayssan ta intes ammanetidade gidada intena zorays.
26 I think that it is good therefore, because of the distress that is on us, that it is good for a person to remain as he is.
Hayssa ha7i wode meto gaason inte ha7i diza mala dizako taas lo7o milates.
27 Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be freed. Are you free from a wife? Do not seek a wife.
Ne machidade gidiko anjjanas koyopa. Machonttade gidiko machcho ekkanas koyopa.
28 But if you marry, you have not sinned. If a virgin marries, she has not sinned. Yet such will have oppression in the flesh, and I want to 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 I say this, brothers: the time is short, that from now on, those who have wives should be as though they had none;
Ta ishato ta qofay hayssa malakko. wodezi qanthi gidida gishshi macha dizadey macha bayindade mala deyo.
30 and those who weep, as though they did not weep; and those who rejoice, as though they did not rejoice; and those who buy, as though they did not possess;
Yekkizayti yekontta asa mala, ufa7ettizayti ufa7etontta asa mala gideto. Miishe shammidadentti shamettida miisha bess gi qopopeto.
31 and those who use the world, as not using it to the fullest. For the form of this world is passing away.
Hayssa alameza miishan go7etizayti wursi go7etontta asa mala gid deeto. Gaasoyka Hayssa alameza hanoy adhanas deess.
32 But I desire to have you to be free from cares. He who is unmarried is concerned for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord;
Inte hirigay bayinda daana mala ta koyays. Machonttadey Goda ufayssanas Goda gishshi qopees.
33 but he who is married is concerned about the things of the world, how he may please his wife,
Machidadey qass ba machchiyo ufayssanas hayssa alameza miishi qopees.
34 and is divided. And the woman that is unmarried, or a virgin, is concerned about the things of the Lord, so that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But the one that is married is concerned about 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 This I say for your own profit; not that I may ensnare you, but for that which is appropriate, and that you may attend to 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 anyone thinks that he is behaving inappropriately toward his virgin, if she is past the flower of her age, and if need so requires, let him do what he desires. He does not sin. 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 But he who stands steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but has power over his own heart, to keep his own virgin, does well.
Gido attin hayssa ha yoozan iza wozinay qaaxontta bena haridi gela7oyo ekkike giidi muritida uray lo7o oothides.
38 So then both he who gives his own virgin in marriage does well, and he who does not give her in marriage does better.
Hessa gishshi gela7oyo ekidadey lo7o oothides. Ekonttadeyka adhetha lo7o oothides.
39 A wife is bound to her husband as long as he lives; but if the husband is dead, she is free to be married to whomever she desires, 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 stays as she is, in my judgment, and I think that I also have God's Spirit.
Ta qofa mala gidiko iza gelontta dizako daro ufayssan deyandusu. Taasika tanan Xoossa ayanay diza milates.
