1 Corinthians 7
1 Now as to the matters about which ye wrote, it is good for a man not to touch a woman;
Su, kwa vitwatira vilii vyamunembiriti kuwera, iherepa kwa wantu pawayuga ndiri.
2 but on account of the commonness of fornication, let every man have his own wife, and every woman her own husband.
Toziya ya uhumba nentu, su kila mpalu kaweri na mdala gwakuwi mweni na kila mdala kaweri na mpalu gwakuwi mweni.
3 Let the husband render to his wife her due; and so also the wife to her husband.
Mpalu katendi galii gagafiruwa na mdala gwakuwi na mdala katendi galii gagafiruwa na mpalu gwakuwi.
4 The wife hath not the disposal of her own body, but her husband; and so also the husband hath not the disposal of his own body, but his wife.
Nshimba ya mdala, yakuwi mweni ndiri, kumbiti ya mpalu gwakuwi. Ntambu iraayi nshimba ya mpalu, yakuwi mweni ndiri, kumbiti ya mdala gwakuwi.
5 Defraud not one another, except by agreement for a time, that ye may have a season for prayer; and be together again, that Satan may not tempt you through your incontinence.
Namuliyimana maweni, kumbiti mpatani kutenda hangu kwa shipindi shididini hera, su muwezi kulikala kwa kumluwa Mlungu, shakapanu muliwuyiri kayi, su Shetani nakiza kuwajera toziya muweza ndiri kulilewelera.
6 But I say this by way of permission, not command.
Aga ganuwagambirani neni na gamalagaliru ndiri.
7 I would that all men were as I myself; but every one hath his own gift from God, one man this, and another that.
Neni menfiri wantu woseri waweri gambira neni ntambu yanwera, kumbiti kila yumu kawera na lifupu kulawa kwa Mlungu, yumu kana lifupu ali na yumonga kana lifupu lilii.
8 I say also to the unmarried and the widows, it is good for them to remain as I am;
Vinu wantu walii yawayuga ndiri na walii yawawera wakenja nuwagambira hangu iherepa walikali gambira neni ntambu yanwera.
9 but if they cannot control themselves, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn.
Kumbiti muntu pakasinda kulilewelera, su kayugi mdala, mana membaka nentu kuyuga kuliku kuwera na lumatamata.
10 But to those who are married it is my command, yet not mine, but the Lord's: Let not the wife separate herself from her husband,
Kwa wantu yawayugiti na yawayugitwi nankuwapanani malagaliru, ganeni ndiri kumbiti ga Mtuwa, mdala nakalekana na mpalu gwakuwi,
11 and if she have separated herself let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband; and let not the husband put away his wife.
Kumbiti pakalekana nayomberi, kalikali pota na kuyugwa ama kakolaniziwi mawoku na mpalu gwakuwi na mpalu nakamleka mdala gwakuwi.
12 But to the rest say I, not the Lord: If any brother hath an unbelieving wife, and she be satisfied to dwell with him, let him not put her away;
Kwa wamonga neni nonga, gweka yangu hera na kumbiti Mtuwa ndiri, Payiwera mpalu yakawera na mdala yakamwamini ndiri Yesu na mdala ayu kajimira kulikala na yomberi, nakamleka mdala ayu.
13 and if a wife hath an unbelieving husband, and he be satisfied to dwell with her, let her not put her husband away.
Na handa mdala kana mpalu yakamwamini ndiri Yesu na mpalu ayu kajimira kulikala na yomberi, su mdala ayu nakamlema mpalu gwakuwi.
14 For the unbelieving husband hath been made holy by his wife, and the unbelieving wife hath been made holy by the brother; otherwise were your children unclean, but, as it is, they are holy.
Toziya mpalu ayu yakamjimira ndiri Yesu hakapungwi na Mlungu kwa kulikolerana na mdala gwakuwi na mdala ayu yakamwamini ndiri Yesu hakajimirwi na Mlungu kwa kulikolerana na mpalu gwakuwi. Pamonga wana wawu mewaweri ndiri wa Mlungu, kumbiti vinu wajimirwa kuwera wana wa Mlungu.
15 But if the unbelieving separateth himself, let him separate himself; a brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases. But God hath called you to be in peace.
Kumbiti payiwera ulii yakamjimira ndiri Kristu pakafira kumleka muyaguwi yakawera Mkristu, su kamleki. Su mpalu ama mdala hakaweri mlekeru. Mlungu kawashemiti mwenga mulikali kwa ponga.
16 For how dost thou know, O wife, but that thou mayst save thy husband? or how dost thou know, O husband, but that thou mayst save thy wife?
Gwenga mdala, guvimana hashi kuwera gwana unakaka kuwera haguwezi kumlopoziya mpalu gwaku? Ama gwenga mpalu, guvimana hashi kuwera gwana unakaka kuwera haguwezi kumlopoziya mdala gwaku?
17 But let every one continue to walk in the lot which the Lord appointed him, in the condition in which God called him. And this direction I give in all the churches.
Kila muntu kalikali kugenderana na mafupu gakapananitwi na Mtuwa na ntambu yakashemitwi na Mlungu. Ali ndo lilagaliru lyaneni muvipinga vyoseri vya wantu vyawamwamini Yesu.
18 Was any one called being circumcised, let him not become as if uncircumcised; hath any one been called in uncircumcision, let him not become circumcised.
Hashi, kwana muntu yoseri yakayingiziwitwi kala jandu pakashemitwi na Mlungu? Nakalipayira kuwera kayingiziwitwi ndiri jandu na handa pakashemitwi kawera kayingiziyitwi ndiri jandu, su nakayingiziwa jandu.
19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.
Toziya kwingiziwa jandu ama kwingiziwa ndiri jandu shintu ndiri, shintu shikulu ndo kugajimira Malagaliru ga Mlungu.
20 Let every one remain in the same calling in which he was called.
Su kila yumu kasigali ntambu pakashemitwi na Mlungu.
21 Wast thou called being a slave, care not for it; but even if thou canst be made free, use it rather.
Hashi, gwenga guweriti mmanda pagushemitwi na Mlungu? Nagulishera, kumbiti paguwera mlekeru, gutendi hangu.
22 For he that was called in the Lord, being a slave, is the Lord's freeman. In like manner the freeman, who is called, is Christ's slave.
Toziya yomberi yakashemitwi na Mtuwa pakawera mmanda, muntu ayu hakaweri mlekeru gwa Mtuwa. Ntambu iraayi ulii muntu mlekeru yakashemitwi na Kristu, kawera mmanda gwa Kristu.
23 Ye were bought with a price; become not the slaves of men.
Mlungu kawahemeriti mwenga kwa beyi nkulu, su namuwera kayi wamanda wa wantu.
24 In that state, brethren, in which he was called, let every one remain with God.
Walongu wayangu, kila yumu gwenu kasigali mukulikolerana pamuhera na Mlungu ntambu yakaweriti pakashemitwi.
25 Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord; but I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.
Vinu kwa visoweru vya wadala yawawera wali, nahera lilagaliru lya Mtuwa, kumbiti ntakula ntambu yamona neni, kwa lusungu lwa Mtuwa, nstaili kwaminika.
26 I think, then, that it is well, on account of the impending distress, for a man to remain as he is.
Su, kulawirana na ntabika yaiwera vinu, neni nulihola kuwera iherepa nentu muntu kasigali ntambu yakawera.
27 Art thou bound to a wife, seek not to be loosed from her; art thou loosed from a wife, do not seek for one.
Hashi, gwenga guyuga? Su nagulekana na mdala gwaku. Hashi, gwenga guyuga ndiri? Su nagufira kuyuga.
28 But if thou hast married, thou hast committed no sin; and if a virgin hath married, she hath committed no sin. Such, however, will have trouble in the flesh, which I desire to spare you.
Kumbiti paguyuga gutenda ndiri vidoda na handa mwali pakayugwa katenda ndiri vidoda. Womberi pawayugana hawapati ntabika mumakaliru aga, kumbiti neni menfiri ndiri gawapati aga.
29 But this I say, brethren, the time that remaineth is short; that both they that have wives may be as though they had none;
Walongu waneni, nfira kutakula hangu, shipindi shashisigala shididini hera na kwanjira vinu walii yawayuga walikali gambira waliyuga ndiri,
30 and they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;
na walii yawalila waweri gambira walira ndiri na walii yawanemelera waweri gambira wanemelera ndiri na walii yawahemera waweri gambira wahera shintu shawahemeliti,
31 and they that use this world as not abusing it; for the outward condition of this world is passing away;
na walii yawawera na lihengu lya pasipanu, waweri gambira wahera lihengu la pasipanu. Toziya pasipanu ntambu yatupamana, pankupita.
32 and I would have you free from anxious cares. He that is unmarried careth about the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord;
Neni menfiriti mwenga namlishera. Muntu yakahera mdala kankuliholera lihengu lya Mtuwa, toziya yomberi kankujera kumfiriziya Mtuwa.
33 but he that is married careth about the things of the world, how to please his wife.
Kumbiti mpalu yakayugiti kankuliholera lihengu lya pasipanu, su kamfiriziyi mdala gwakuwi,
34 There is a difference also between a wife and a virgin; the unmarried woman careth about the things of the Lord, to be holy, both in body and in spirit; but she that is married careth about the things of the world, how to please her husband.
na yomberi maholu gakuwi galibagula. Mdala yakayugwa ndiri ama yakawera mwali katenda lihengu lya Mtuwa, kapati kuwera mananagala gwa nshimba na rohu. Kumbiti mdala yakayugitwi katendaga lihengu lya pasipanu, su kamfiriziyi mdala gwakuwi.
35 And this I say for your own profit; not to cast a noose over you, but with a view to what is becoming, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.
Nuwagambirani aga toziya nfira kuwatanga mwenga. Neni nfira ndiri kuwapoka ulekelu wenu, kumbiti nfira mwenga mtendi maheri na mulilaviyi maweni kumtendera lihengu lya Mtuwa pota na kukwegwa na vintu vyamonga.
36 But if any one thinketh that he behaveth improperly in respect to his virgin [[daughter]], if she pass the flower of her age [[without being married]], and if it must be so, let him do what he will, he committeth no sin; let them marry.
Handa muntu kawona kamtendera weri ndiri mwali yakamfindika pakamuyuga ndiri na handa hapeni kawezi kulikala pota na kuyuga, su katendi ntambu yakafira, yomberi kayugi na hapeni katendi vidoda.
37 But if any one is settled in his purpose, and is under no necessity, but is free to act as he will, and hath determined in his heart to keep his own virgin daughter [[unmarried]], he doeth well.
Kumbiti mpalu ayu pakaamuwa mumoyu mwakuwi pota na kuyuga na handa kaweza kuzikolamlima matamata zyakuwi na kwamuwa ntambu ya kutenda, su katenda weri nentu pakamuyuga ndiri mwali ayu.
38 So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; and he that doth not give her in marriage doeth better.
Su mpalu yakayuga katenda hweri, kumbiti ulii yakayugiti ndiri katenda hweri nentu.
39 The wife is bound to her husband as long as he liveth; but if her husband die, she is free to marry whom she will, only in the Lord.
Mdala yakayugitwi kakolerana pamuhera na mpalu gwakuwi mushipindi shoseri pamberi pa kuhowa. Kumbiti mpalu gwakuwi pakahowa, mdala ayu kawera mlekeru, na pakafira mweni kaweza kuyugwa na muntu yoseri, kumbiti mpalu ayu kaweri Mkristu.
40 But she is happier if she remain as she is, in my opinion; and I too think that I have the Spirit of God.
Kumbiti yamona neni, kwa mdala ayu mbaka pakalikala ntambu yakawera. Aga ndo ntambu yanulihola na neni nulihola kuwera nana Rohu gwa Mlungu.
