1 Corinthians 8
1 Now, concerning the idol-sacrifices, we are aware—because we, all, have knowledge, —knowledge, puffeth up, but, love, buildeth up;
Sambano kwa ngani ja yakulya yetaje mbopesi kwa inyago tukumanyilila kuti wose tukwete umanyilisi. Umanyilisi ukututendekasya tulilape twachinsyene nambo unonyelo ukutugumba.
2 If anyone thinketh that he knoweth anything, not yet knoweth he, as he must needs come to know,
Mundu aganisyaga kuti akuchimanyilila chindu, nganaŵe kuchimanyilila chachili chose mpela yakuti pakusachilwa kwimanyilila.
3 But, if anyone loveth God, the same, is known of him—
Nambo iŵaga mundu akunnonyela Akunnungu, akumanyika ni Akunnungu.
4 Concerning, then, the eating of idol-sacrifices, we are aware—that an idol is, nothing, in the world, and that, none, is God save one.
Nipele, kwa ngani ja yakulya yetaje mbopesi kwa inyago tukwimanyilila kuti inyago ngaŵa chindu pachilambo, ni kuti ngapagwa Akunnungu ŵane ikaŵe Akunnungu ŵamo pe.
5 For, if indeed there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or upon earth, —as indeed there are gods many and lords many,
Namuno ipali indu yejinji yati ŵandu akuiŵilanga minnungu, pachilambo pano ni kwinani, namuno kwana minnungu ni achambuje ŵajinji,
6 [Yet], to us, there is one God the Father, of whom are all things, and, we, for him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and, we, through him.
nambo kukwetuwe Akunnungu ali ŵamo pe ŵaali Atati jwagumbile yose, ni uweji tukutama kwa ligongo lya ŵelewo. Sooni tukwete Ambuje ŵamo pe ŵelewo ali Che Yesu Kilisito, kwalitala lya ŵelewo indu yose yagumbikwe, noweji tukutama kwalitala lya ŵelewo.
7 Howbeit, not in all, is the knowledge; but, some, by their familiarity, until even now, with the idol, as an idol-sacrifice, eat it, and, their conscience, being, weak, is defiled.
Nambo ngaŵa kila mundu jwakwimanyilila yose yi, ŵandu ŵane ŵasyoŵelele kutaga mbopesi kwa inyago, mpaka sambano alyaga chakulya cho akuganisya chili cha inyago. Pakuwa miningwa jao jili jakulepetala akuliganisya kuti akulisakasya kwakulya chakulya cho.
8 Food, indeed, will not commend us unto God, —neither, if we eat not, do we lack, nor, if we eat, do we abound.
Chakulya ngachikukombola kutujausya chiŵandi ni Akunnungu, twalekaga kulya ngapagwa chachikutusoŵa, ni twalyaga ngapagwa chachikonjecheka kukwetu.
9 But be taking heed, lest, by any means, your right, itself, become, an occasion of stumbling, unto the weak;
Nambo nlilolechesye ni kulechelelwa kwenu, nkaika kwatendekasya ŵaali ni chikulupi cha kulepetala kwinjila mu sambi.
10 For, if anyone should see [thee] who hast knowledge, in an idol-temple, reclining, will not, his conscience, being, weak, be built up for the eating of the idol-sacrifices?
Pakuŵa mundu jwaali ni chikulupi chakulepetala, ammonaga mmwe junkwimanyilila nkulya mu nyuumba ja inyago, ana ngasanyengeka nombejo kulya yakulya yetaje mbopesi kwa inyago?
11 In fact, he that is weak, is being destroyed, by thy knowledge—the brother for whose sake Christ died.
Kwayele, mundu jwaali ni chikulupi chakulepetala chasocheye kwa ligongo lya umanyilisi wenu, ni Kilisito ŵawile kwa liwamba lya jwelejo!
12 But, in thus sinning against the brethren am wounding their conscience, seeing it is weak, against Christ, are ye sinning.
Iŵaga nkwasoyasya achinjenu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito kwanti yeleyo, ni kujiulasya miningwa jao jakulepetala, nkwaleŵela Kilisito.
13 Therefore, if food is an occasion of stumbling unto my brother, in nowise will I eat flesh unto the age that abideth, —that, I may not occasion, my brother, to stumble. (aiōn g165)
Nipele chakulya chankuŵasyaga njangu jwakunkulupilila Kilisito ajinjile mu sambi, ngangulya nyama ng'o, pakuŵa nalyaga chinanneŵesye njangu jwakunkulupilila Kilisito ajinjile mu sambi. (aiōn g165)
