1 Corinthians 11
1 Imitators of me do be even as I myself also [am] I myself also [am] of Christ.
Banini ngabalandeli bami, njengoba lami okaKristu.
2 I commend now you (brothers *k*) that in all things me you have remembered, and even as I delivered to you the teachings you are keeping.
Ngiyalibabaza-ke, bazalwane, ukuthi liyangikhumbula ezintweni zonke, lokuthi libambelele ezimisweni njengoba ngalinika.
3 I want however you to know that of every man the head Christ is, [the] head now of [the] woman [is] the man; [the] head now (*no*) of Christ God.
Kodwa ngithanda ukuthi lazi, ukuthi inhloko yawo wonke amadoda nguKristu; lenhloko yowesifazana yindoda; lenhloko kaKristu nguNkulunkulu.
4 Every man praying or prophesying [anything] on [his] head having he dishonors the head of him.
Yonke indoda ekhulekayo loba eprofethayo, ikhanda limboziwe, ilithela ihlazo ikhanda layo.
5 Every now woman praying or prophesying uncovered with the head dishonors the head (of her; *N(k)O*) one for it is and the same with which shaven.
Kodwa wonke owesifazana okhuleka kumbe aprofethe ikhanda lingambombozwanga, ulithela ihlazo elakhe ikhanda; ngoba lokhu kufanana-ke lophuciweyo.
6 If for not covers her head a woman, also she should be shorn; If [it is] now disgraceful to a woman to be shorn or to be shaven, she should cover her head.
Ngoba uba owesifazana engagubuzeli, futhi kagele; kodwa uba kukubi kowesifazana ukugela kumbe ukuphucwa, kagutshuzelwe.
7 A man indeed for not ought to cover the head image and glory of God being; (the *no*) woman however [the] glory of man is;
Ngoba indoda kayifanele ukumbomboza ikhanda, ngoba ingumfanekiso lodumo lukaNkulunkulu; kodwa owesifazana uludumo lwendoda.
8 Not for is man of woman but woman of man;
Ngoba indoda kayivelanga kowesifazana, kodwa owesifazana endodeni;
9 Truly for not was created man on account of the woman but woman on account of the man;
ngoba futhi indoda kayidalelwanga owesifazana, kodwa owesifazana indoda;
10 Because of this ought the woman authority to have on the head on account of the angels.
ngenxa yalokhu owesifazana kufanele abe lamandla phezu kwekhanda ngenxa yezingilosi.
11 However neither [is] woman without man nor man without woman in [the] Lord;
Kodwa indoda kayingaphandle kowesifazana, lowesifazana kangaphandle kwendoda, eNkosini.
12 Just as for the woman of the man [is] so also the man through the woman [is], the however all things of God.
Ngoba njengoba owesifazana evela endodeni, ngokunjalo lendoda ivela ngowesifazana, kodwa konke kuvela kuNkulunkulu.
13 In you yourselves do judge: Becoming is it for a woman revealed to God to pray?
Ziboneleni lina; kufanele yini ukuthi owesifazana akhuleke kuNkulunkulu engambombozanga?
14 (or *K*) Not even nature itself does teach you that a man indeed if he shall have long hair, a dishonor to him it is,
Imvelo uqobo lwayo kayilifundisi yini, ukuthi uba indoda ilenwele ezinde, kulihlazo kuyo?
15 a woman however if she shall have long hair, glory to her it is? For the long hair instead of a covering has been given to her;
Kodwa uba owesifazana elenwele ezinde, kuludumo kuye. Ngoba inwele uziphiwe ukuthi zibe yisimbombozo.
16 If now anyone is inclined contentious to be, we ourselves such custom no [other] have nor the churches of God.
Kodwa uba umuntu ebonakala elenkani, thina kasilawo umkhuba onjalo, ngitsho lamabandla kaNkulunkulu.
17 In this now (instructing *NK(o)*) not I do praise because not for the better but for the (worse *N(k)O*) you come together.
Kodwa ngokulaya lokhu kangilibabazi, ngoba libuthana ngokungekuhle kodwa ngokubi.
18 First indeed for coming together you in (*k*) an assembly I hear divisions among you there to be, and in part it I believe;
Okokuqala ngoba nxa libuthana ebandleni, ngizwa ukuthi kukhona ukwehlukana phakathi kwenu; njalo nganxanye ngiyakukholwa.
19 It behooves for also factions among you there to be, so that (also *no*) the approved evident may become among you.
Ngoba kufanele ukuba lobubhazuka futhi phakathi kwenu, ukuze labo abaqinisileyo babonakale phakathi kwenu.
20 Coming therefore of you together in one place not it is [the] Lord’s supper to eat;
Ngakho nxa libuthana ndawonye, lokhu kakusikho ukudla isidlo seNkosi;
21 One for [their] own supper takes first in eating, and this [one] indeed is hungry, that [one] however is drunken.
ngoba ngulowo lalowo uthatha kuqala esakhe isidlo ekudleni, lomunye ulambile, lomunye udakiwe.
22 Surely not indeed houses surely you have in which to eat and to drink? Or the church of God do you despise and put to shame those nothing having? What shall I say to you shall I praise you in this? Not I praise [you]!
Kanti kalilazo izindlu zokudlela lezokunathela? Kumbe lidelela ibandla likaNkulunkulu, liyangise yini abangelakho? Ngingathini kini? Ngingalibabaza kulokhu yini? Kangilibabazi.
23 I myself for received from the Lord that which also I delivered to you that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took bread,
Ngoba mina ngakwemukela eNkosini, lokho lami engalinika khona, ukuthi iNkosi uJesu ngobusuku eyanikelwa ngabo yathatha isinkwa,
24 and having given thanks He broke [it] and said (do take *KO*) (do eat: *K*) This of Me is the body which [is] for you (being broken; *K*) this do perform in of Me remembrance.
isibongile yasihlephuna, yathi: Thathani, lidle, lokhu kungumzimba wami owahletshunelwa lina; lokhu kwenzeni ukungikhumbula.
25 Likewise also the cup after having supped saying; This cup the new covenant is in My blood; this do perform, as often as (when *N(k)O*) you shall drink [it], in of Me remembrance.
Ngokunjalo lenkezo, sebedlile, yathi: Inkezo le iyisivumelwano esitsha egazini lami; lokhu kwenzeni, loba nini liyinatha, ukungikhumbula.
26 As often as for (when *N(k)O*) you shall eat bread this and cup (this *K*) may drink, the death of the Lord you proclaim until that (when *k*) He may come.
Ngoba loba nini nxa lisidla lesisinkwa, linatha linkezo, litshumayela ukufa kweNkosi ize ifike.
27 Therefore who[ever] maybe may eat bread (this *K*) or may drink the cup of the Lord unworthily (of the-Lord *O*) guilty will be of the body and of the blood of the Lord.
Ngakho loba ngubani odla lesisinkwa kumbe anathe inkezo yeNkosi ngokungafanelanga, uzakuba lecala lomzimba legazi leNkosi.
28 should examine however a man himself, and in this manner of the bread he should eat and of the cup he should drink;
Kodwa umuntu kumele azihlole, ngokunjalo-ke adle okwesinkwa anathe okwenkezo;
29 The [one] for eating and drinking (unworthily *K*) judgment on himself he eats and he drinks not discerning the body (of the *k*) (Lord. *K*)
ngoba odlayo anathe ngokungafanelanga, uzidlela azinathele isigwebo, engawehlukanisi umzimba weNkosi.
30 Because of this among you many [are] weak and sick, and are fallen asleep many.
Ngenxa yalokhu banengi kini ababuthakathaka labagulayo, lenengi lilele.
31 If (for *N(k)O*) ourselves we were judging, not then would we were come under judgment;
Kodwa uba besizihlolile thina, besingayikwahlulelwa;
32 Being judged however by (the *no*) Lord we are disciplined, so that not with the world we may be condemned.
kodwa nxa sisahlulelwa, sikhuzwa yiNkosi, ukuze singalahlwa kanye lomhlaba.
33 So then, brothers of mine, coming together in order to eat one another do wait for;
Ngakho, bazalwane bami, nxa libuthana ukuthi lidle, kalibomelelana.
34 If (now *k*) anyone is hungry, at home he should eat, so that not for judgment you may come together. And the other things as soon as when I may come I will set in order.
Njalo uba omunye elambile, kabokudla ekhaya; ukuze lingabuthaneli ukugwetshwa. Okuseleyo-ke, ngizakulungisa mhla ngifikayo.
