1 Corinthians 7
1 Now as to the matters about which ye wrote, it is good for a man not to touch a woman;
Kusino mukandembile: ghamo masiki manofu umughosi nangaghonaghe nu n'dala ghwa mwene.
2 but on account of the commonness of fornication, let every man have his own wife, and every woman her own husband.
Looli lino ulwakuva ingelo nyinga isavuvwafu umughosi ghwenu avisaghe nu muunhu ghwa mwene na ghweni un'dala avisaghe numughosi ghwa mwene.
3 Let the husband render to his wife her due; and so also the wife to her husband.
Umughosi anoghile pikum'pela umuunhu ghwa mwene luno lunoghile musavutolani vwa mwene, kange vulevule naju n'dala am'pelaghe luno lunoghile umughosi ghwamwene.
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.
Na ghwe n'dala juno alinuvutemi mum'biili ghwa mwene, ghwe mughosi. Kange vulevule najumughosi nalinnuvutemi vwa m'biili ghwa mwene, looli un'dala ghwa mwene ghwe alinavo
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.
Namungafinyanaghe pano mughona palikimo, looli nave mupuling'line kunsiki ghuno ghuvikilue. Muvombaghe vulevule ulwakuuti mukave nsiki ghwa kufunya. Kange lunoghile pigomokilanila palikimo, ulwakuuti usetano aleke kukuvaghela kukiling'ania kyongo.
6 But I say this by way of permission, not command.
Looli nijova ku isi soni nuvwavuke nakwekuuti lulaghilo.
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.
Ninoghelua umuunhu ghweni asava ndavule une nilivuo. Looli umuunhu ghweni alinikipelua kyamwene kuhuma kwa Nguluve. Uju alinikipelua iki, ghwope jula alinikipelua kila
8 I say also to the unmarried and the widows, it is good for them to remain as I am;
Kuvano navatolilue navafwile niiti ndiki, luvele luvanoghile vajighe kisila kutolua, ndavule nilivuo unhe.
9 but if they cannot control themselves, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn.
Looli nave pikusigha, luvanoghile pitolua. Ulwakuva luvanoghile avene kutolua ulwakuuti valeke kuva nuvunoghelua.
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,
Lino kuvano vitolua nikuvapela ululaghilo, na nene ghwe Mutwa, “Umumama nangalekanaghe nu mughosi ghwa mwene.”
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.
Looli nave alekeng'ine kuhuma kwa mughosi, ajighaghe vulevule nangatoluaghe kange nambe lunoghile anoghile kupulingana kange numughosi ghwa mwene. Na “Jumughosi nangam'pelaghe italaka umuunhu ghwa mwene.”
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;
Looli kuvano vasighile, niiti- unhe, nakwekuuti u Mutwa- kuuti nde unyalukolo ghweni alinumuunhu ghwa mwene juno na ikwitika kange akwiline oikukala naghwope nanoghilele pikumuleka.
13 and if a wife hath an unbelieving husband, and he be satisfied to dwell with her, let her not put her husband away.
Nave umukimama naitike, nave akwiline kukukala naghwope nanga mulekaghe.
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.
Kwa mughosi juno naitike ivalasivua vwimila vwa lwitiko lwa muunhu ghwa mwene. Na jumumama juno naitike ivalasivua vwimila vwa mughosi ghwa mwene juno itike. Nafyelusava avuo avanha viinhu vale vivanavanofu, looli kyang'haani vavalasivue.
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.
Looli umughanike juno namwiti anagavuke alutaghe. Pa uluo, unkulu nambe umwanilumbu naikungua ni njiigho savanave. Unguluve atukemelile tukalaghe nhu lutengano.
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?
Ukagula ndani nave ulin'dala pano ukum'pokagha umughosi ghwako? Nambe ghukagula ndani nave umughosi, nighani ghukum'poka umuunhu ghwako?
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.
Umuunhu ghweni ikalaghe ndavule u Mutwa avaghavile, umuunhu ghweni ndavule u Nguluve avakemelile avene. Uvu vwe vulongosi vwango ku ng'ong'ano sooni.
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.
Pwale juno akadumulilue yeakemelilue mulwitiko? Alaghelagha kuvusia ikivalilo kya vudumulilua. Pwale jumonga juno akemelilue mu lwitiko nadumulilue? Nalunoghile kudumulua.
19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.
Pa uluo kuva adumulivue nambe juno nadumulivue kusita lumonga. Ikinyalumonga kwe kupulika indaghilo sa Nguluve.
20 Let every one remain in the same calling in which he was called.
Umuunhu ghweni asighalaghe mung'emelo ndavule alyale ye ikemelua nu Nguluve pano ikwitika.
21 Wast thou called being a slave, care not for it; but even if thou canst be made free, use it rather.
Ulyale nkami unsiki ghuno u Nguluve ikukukemela? Nungasaghaghe ku uluo. looli nave ghuvaghila kuva mwavuke, vombagha vulevule.
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.
Kwajumo juno juno akemelilue nhu Mutwa hene nkami muunhu mwavuke mwa Mutwa. Ndavule, viino jumo juno mwavuke kukwitika ghwe nkami ghwa Kilisite.
23 Ye were bought with a price; become not the slaves of men.
Mumalile kughulua ni kyuma kinga, pa uluo mulekaghe piiva vakami va vaanhu.
24 In that state, brethren, in which he was called, let every one remain with God.
Vakuulu numue va mwanilumbu vango, mu mikalile ghooni umuunhu ghweeni ndavule tulyakemelilue kukwitika, tujighaghe vulevule
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.
Lino, vala voni vano navalile nambe, n'sila lulaghilo kuhuma kwa Mutwa. Looli nikuvapela imavilo sango ndavule nilivuo. Mulusungu lwa Mutwa luno lwa kyang'haani.
26 I think, then, that it is well, on account of the impending distress, for a man to remain as he is.
Looli, nisagha ndike ulwakuva sa lugasio, lunoghile umughosi ajighaghe ndavule alivuo.
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.
Ukungilue kwa muunhu ghwako nulufingo lwa vutolani? Nungalondaghe uvwavuke kuhuma ku uluo. Ulimwavuke kuhuma kwa muunhu ghwako nakuva nutolilue? Nungamulondaghe umu mama.
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.
Looli nave nutolilue, nuvombile amakole. Vasighile vala vano navatolano viva ni ngasio jino silipapinga. Une nilonda nivaseghusie ku isio.
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;
Looli nijova ndiiki, vakuulubnumue valumbu vango, un'siki n'debe. Kuhumalino na kughendelela vaala vano valinava mama vikalaghe hweene valivuvule.
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;
Vooni vano vasasukunile vavisaghe hene vasila lusukunalo, vooni vano vakalile, nave navakakelile, na vooni vano vighula ikiinhu kyoni, nave navahalile kimonga.
31 and they that use this world as not abusing it; for the outward condition of this world is passing away;
Vooni vano vitigha ni iisi, vave heene navakale vitigha na veene, ulwakuuva amatindo gha iisighifikila uvusililo vwa mwene.
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;
Nilonda muve vavuke mu ngasio soni. umughosi juno natolile ivomba ifiinu fya Mutwa, ndavule inoghelua umwene.
33 but he that is married careth about the things of the world, how to please his wife.
Looli umughosi juno atolile ikuvika mu fiinu fya mu iisi, ndavule lunoghile pikumovosia umunu ghwa mwene,
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.
aghaving'ine. Umumama juno natolilue minja vuvule ikuvika nifiinu fya Mutwa, ndavule lunoghile ku lekeng'ana mum'biili na munhumbula. looli umumama juno atolilue ikuvika mu finhu fya mu iisi, ndavule lunoghile pikumovosia umughosi ghwa mwene.
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.
Nijova vulevule kuuti luvumbulilo lwinu jumue, nakwekuuti nivateghile ulutegho umue. Nijova vulevule ulwakuuva sa kyang'haani, ulwa kuuti lunoghile pikuvika vavombi kwa Mutwa kisila kikuvasi kyokyoni.
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.
Nave umuunhu isagha ikunua kukum'bombela nhu vWAoghopua uminja ghwa mwene, vwimila vwa masaghe gha mweene ghaliningufu kyongo, muleke atolanaghe na ghwope ndavule ighanile. Nakwekuuti nyivi.
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.
Looli nave mulamuile ulwa kuleka kutola, nakwekuuti ikwumilisivua, nambe nave akagwile pikuvutema uvunoghelua vwa mwene, iva avombile vunofu nambe aleke pikuntola.
38 So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; and he that doth not give her in marriage doeth better.
Pa uluo, juno ikuntola uminja ghwa mwene ivomba vunofu, ghweni juno asalwile kuleka kutola iva avombile vunofu.
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.
Umumama akungilue numugosi ghwa mwene ye ajighe mwumi. Looli nave umughosi afwile, mwavuke kutolua kwa muunhu ghweni juno amughanile, looli mu mwa Mutwa mwene.
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.
Nikyale muvulamusi vwango, iva nulukelo kyongo nave ikale ndavule alivuo. Najune nisagha kuuti nili nu Mhepo ghwa Nguluve.
