< 1 Corinthians 7 >
1 Now concerning the things about which you wrote: it is good for a man not to touch a woman.
Ahusu amambo ngamsimbiye: Huli isala aje shinza unume asahag'one nushe wakwe.
2 But, because of sexual immoralities, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman 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 fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband.
Unume ahwanziwa apele ushi ihaki yakwe iiyahwengama, shishila ushi nape hwanume.
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.
Saga yushi yatawala ubele gwakwe, nume. Na shishila unume nape sagatawala ubele gwake ila ushialinao.
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.
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 this I say by way of concession, not of commandment.
Walakini iyanga ega amambo ninene sagaje malajizyo.
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.
Inyonywa aje shila muntu angahali nazine shindeho. Eshi shila weka alinishipaji shakwe afume hwa Ngolobhe. Ono alinishipaji eshi, ola alinishipaji eshi.
8 But I say to the unmarried and to widows, it is good for them if they remain even as I am.
Hwawasaga wengwilwe na awafyelwe inyanga aje shinza aje wasangale bila ahwengwe, nanzi sindehone.
9 But if they do not have self-control, let them marry. For it's better to marry than to burn.
Walakini nkasangawawajie huizijile wahuanziwa ahwengwe. Aje aheri ahwengwe kuliko anyonywe.
10 But to the married I command—not I, but the Lord—that the wife not leave her husband
Eshi hwawala wa wegwilwe ihimbapela indajizyo, saga nene ila yu Bwana. “Ushi asahalehane nu nume wakwe.”
11 (but if she departs, let her remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband not leave his wife.
Eshi nkanza alehane afume hwa nuwene asangale shesho asahahwenge, au nkasangashesho akondane nunumeo na unume asahapele.”
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.
Walakini wawasangee iyanga- ane, saga yu Bwana- aje nkaholo wowonti ali nushi yasanga aputa ayetesha akhale nao, sagahwaziwa huneshe.
13 The woman who has an unbelieving husband, and he is content to live with her, let her not leave her husband.
Nkashee alinunume yasagaputa na ahwenteha ahale nao asahaneshe.
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.
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 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.
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, as the Lord has assigned to each one, as God has called each, so let him walk. So I command in all the congregations.
Shila weka ahale amaisha hwa Bwana shawagawiye, shila wweka nanzi Ungolobhe shakwizizye awene. Owu longozi wane huviwanza vyonti.
18 Was anyone called having been circumcised? Let him not become uncircumcised. Has anyone been called in uncircumcision? 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, but the keeping of the commandments of God.
Hueli indola atahiliwa au sanga atahiliwe nagamo amatatizo. Shashili na matatizo hu tii iagizo lya Ngolobhe.
20 Let each person stay in that calling in which he was called.
Shila weka asagale shakwizizye Ungolobhe na hukombole.
21 Were you called being a slave? Do not let that bother you, but if you get an opportunity to become free, use it.
Uhali muwomba mbombo amasala Ungolobhe lwahakwizizye? Usahasaje ahusu elyo. Nkashele uwajie awe huru wombanga shesho.
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 Messiah'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 were bought with a price. Do not become slaves of people.
Amwe mkalililwe hu hung'alama hije msahawe waomba mbombo hwa wantu.
24 Brothers, let each one, in whatever condition he was called, stay in that condition with God.
Wasahala na walendu wane, humaisha gonti shila weka ahakwiziwilwe akombolewe tusagale shishesho
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.
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 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.
Kwa hiyo, isewa eshohunongwa ya malawa, shinza unume asagale nazi shaleho.
27 Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be freed. Are you free from a wife? Do not seek a wife.
Upinyilwe nushi nishiapo sha hwengane? Usahahanze uuhuru afume hwelyo. Uli nu huru wafume hwashe au saganyegwilwe? Usahahanze ushi.
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.
Walakini nku yenje sanga uwombile imbiwi. Wasele wala wawahwengana wahugaga amalawa gagali mbalimbali nane ihwanza aje embepuzye ego.
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;
Eshi iyanga ishi awasahala na walendu wane amasala mafupi. Ahwande eshi nahuendelele, walaw wawali na hawashe wakhale aje sagawali na washe.
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;
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 not using it to the fullest. For the form of this world is passing away.
Na wonti wawawomba imbombo zya munsi waweje sanga washunghuliha liohonti. Yaani amatindo ga munsi idujile humalishilo wakwe.
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;
Ihwanza unume yalihura humalawa gonti. Unume yasaga ayejile ahwihusisha ni vintu vivihumsu uBwana, isha hupendezye umwene.
33 but he who is married is concerned about the things of the world, how he may please his wife,
Lakini unume ya yejile ahuihusisha na mambo ya dunia, namna ya hupendezye ushi wakwe,
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.
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 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.
Iyanga ishi hufaida yenyu, mwemwe na sanga imbeha umtengo humwenyu. Iyanga eshi nalioli aje muwajie huiweshe tayari hwa Bwana bila azigwe nashashonti.
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.
Lakini umntu nkasewa apotilwe humuombele ishishi umwanamwali wakwe, huu seo zwake zili ni ngovu hani leha wegane nao nanzishahwanzya. Sanga mbiwi.
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.
Lakini awombile shahuanza saga ahwenga nemo ihaja ya ulazima, nkawajiye atawale ihamu yakwe anzawombe shinza nkasanga ahwenga.
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.
Oyo yahumwenga umwana mwali wakwe awombe shinza, wowonti ola yasaluye sagaahwenga anza wombe shinza hani.
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.
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 if she stays as she is, in my judgment, and I think that I also have God's Ruach.
Bado katika ahwamle hwane anza songwe hani nkahale nazi shaleho. Na isewa aje nane pia indi nu Mpepo ufinjile.
