1 Corinthians 12
1 Now concerning spiritual things, brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant.
Ashaalongo ajangu, ga kalama kopoka kuka Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo, ngunapinga mmumanyanje ukoto.
2 You know that when you were unbelievers, you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.
Mmumanyinji kuti, nkanabhe tapulwanga mwashinkpuganywanga, nikwiikaguya yanamu ikabheleketa.
3 Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by God's Spirit says, "Jesus is accursed." No one can say, "Jesus is Lord," but by the Holy Spirit.
Bhai ngunakummalanjilanga kuti, mundu jojowe alongoywa naka Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo akakombola bheleketa, “A Yeshu bhashiloshwa,” nkali bheleketa “A Yeshu ni Bhakulungwa,” ikabhe kwa Mmbumu jwa Ukonjelo.
4 Now there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.
Bhai ishipagwa kalama ya namuna yaigwinji, ikabheje ashoya ni Mbumu jumope jula.
5 There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord.
Na kabhili gapali maengo gamagwinji ga tenda, ikabheje Bhakulungwa bhamope bhala.
6 There are various kinds of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all.
Numbe ishipagwa namuna yaigwinji ya kamula maengo, ikabheje a Nnungu ni bhamope, bhaatenda maengo gowe ku bhandu bhowe.
7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all.
Ikabheje kila mundu anapegwa nng'ibhulo naka Mbumu kwa pwaida ja bhowe.
8 For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom, and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
Pabha mundu jumo anapegwa lilobhe lya lunda, na juna lumanyio, malinga shaapinga Mbumujo.
9 to another faith, by the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, by the one Spirit;
Mbumu jojo anakumpa juna ngulupai, na juna kalama ya lamya.
10 and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; to another different kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues.
Juna anapegwa mashili ga itendi ya ilapo, na juna kalama ja londola, na juna anakombola kuapulanya kalama ika Mbumu na ili nngabha ika Mbumu, na juna bheleketa ibheleketo ya ambi, na juna kulombola ibheleketo ya ambiyo.
11 But the one and the same Spirit works all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.
Gowego maengo gaka Mbumu jumo pejo, akumpa kila mundu kalama ilekanila malinga shaapinga nnyene.
12 For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Messiah.
Malinga pushili shiilu shimo shishikola ibhalo yaigwinji, nkali ibhalo ishulwisheyo shiilu ni shimo, nneyo peyo shibhali a Kilishitu.
13 For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all given to drink of one Spirit.
Pabha uwe tubhaga Bhayaudi eu Bhagiliki eu bhatumwa eu bhangwana, tubhowe tushibhatishwa naka Mbumu jumo pejo, nkupinga tubhe shiilu shimo, na tubhowe tushipegwa Mbumu jumo pejo.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
Bhai, shiilu shangali shibhalo shimo, ikabhe ibhalo yaigwinji.
15 If the foot would say, "Because I'm not a hand, I'm not part of the body," that would not make it less a part of the body.
Monaga lukongono lubheleketaga, “Pabha nne nngabha nkono, bhai nne nngabha jwa shiilu,” Bhuli! Kwa lyene ligongolyo ngulukanabhe lwa shiilu? Ng'oo!
16 And if the ear would say, "Because I'm not the eye, I'm not part of the body," that would not make it less a part of the body.
Monaga likutu likabhelekete, “Pabha nne nngabha liyo, nne nngabha jwa shiilu,” bhuli, kwa bheleketa nneyo, ngulikanabhe lya shiilu? Ng'oo!
17 If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were an ear, where would the sense of smell be?
Monaga shiilu showe shikaliji liyo, kukapali kupilikana? Monaga shiilu showe shikaliji likutu, tukanushiye shanabhuli?
18 But as a matter of fact, God has arranged the members of the body, each one of them, according to his design.
Ikabheje, a Nnungu bhashikwiibhika nshiilu ibhalo ya lekanila malinga shibhapinjile.
19 If they were all the same member, where would the body be?
Monaga yowe ikaliji shibhalo shimo, shiilu shikapali kwai?
20 So now there are many members, but one body.
Bhai nnaino shiilu ni shimo, ikabheje ibhalo yaigwinji.
21 The eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no need for you," or again the head to the feet, "I have no need for you."
Bhai, liyo likaulugulila nkono “Ngakuupinga ugwe,” wala ntwe ukakugalugulila makongono “Ngakumpinganga mmanganya.”
22 On the contrary, those members which seem to be weaker are essential,
Nkali nneyo, inabhoneka kuti, ibhalo ya shiilu iganishiywa yangali ya mmbone, mbena ni ya mmbone kaje.
23 and the parts which we think less honorable we treat with greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with dignity,
Na ibhalo ya shiilu ituganishiya yangali ishima ila, ni itukwigoya kwa kaje, ibhalo ya shiilu ikabhonekana kuti ya mmbone, inagoywa kwa kaje,
24 whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the lesser member,
pabha ibhalo yetu ina ili ya mmbone ikagoywa kwa kaje. A Nnungu bhayene, bhashikushilundanya shiilu ukoto na kushikuya shibhalo shangali sha mmbone shila,
25 that there may be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same concern for one another.
nkupinga ganapagwe malekano nshiilu, ikabhe ibhalo yowe ikulupalilane.
26 When one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. If a member is honored, all rejoice with it.
Monaga shibhalo shimo shiulalaga, ibhalo yowe shiipotekwe. Shibhalo shimo shikuywaga ibhalo yowe shiangalale.
27 Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.
Bhai, mmanganya mmowe shiilu shimo sha a Kilishitu, kila jumo jwenunji ni shibhalo sha shiilusho.
28 God has set some in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracle workers, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, and various kinds of tongues.
A Nnungu bhashibhika nnikanisha, bhantai mitume, bhabhili, ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu, bhatatu, bhaajiganya na bhananji, bha tenda ilapo na bha bhalamyanga bhalwelenji na bhana bhajangutilanga, na bhana ashikalongolele na bhana bha bheleketanga shibheleketo shijeni.
29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all miracle workers?
Bhuli bhowe ashimitume? Bhowe ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu? Bhowe bhaajiganya? Bhowe bhaatendanga ilapo?
30 Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?
Bhuli bhowe bhaalamyanga? Bhuli, bhowe bhabheleketanga shibheleketo shijeni? Bhuli, bhowe bhalombolanga shibheleketo shijeni?
31 But earnestly desire the greater gifts. Moreover, I show a most excellent way to you.
Bhai nkolanje shilokoli sha kola kalama ya punda. Numbe nne shininnanguyanje mpanda gwa mmbone, kupunda jowe.
