1 Corinthians 5

1 [Now I want to discuss another matter]. It has been {People have} reported to me, and I believe that it is true, that some people among you have been acting in a sexually immoral way, in a way that is so bad that not even (pagans/people who do not know about God) act that way. People tell me that a man is living with his stepmother (OR, his father’s other wife).

Mun ji cewa akwai lalata mai kazanta a cikin ku, irin lalatar ba ba a yarda da ita ba ko a cikin al'ummai. Labarin da na samu shine, wani daga cikin ku yana kwana da matar mahaifinsa.

2 You should be sad about what that man is doing! He should have been expelled {[You] should have expelled him} from your congregation! [But you] have not [done that], so (how can you be proud, [thinking that you are spiritually mature?]/it is disgusting that you are proud, [thinking that you are spiritually mature]!) [RHQ]

Kuma kuna fahariya sosai! Ba bakinciki ya kamata ku yi ba? Shi wanda ya yi haka, dole a fitar da shi daga cikin ku.

3 As for me, I have already decided [how you should] punish that man. And even though I am away from you, my spirit is with you, and you should do as I would do if I were there with you.

Gama Kodashike ba ni tare da ku cikin jiki, amma ina tare daku a ruhu, na rigaya na hukunta wanda yayi wannan, tamkar ina wurin.

4 [What I have decided is that] when you have gathered together with the authority [MTY] of our Lord Jesus, and my spirit is with you, and the power of our Lord Jesus [is with you],

Lokacin da ku ka taru a cikin sunan Ubangijinmu Yesu, ruhuna yana nan tare da ku cikin ikon Ubangiji Yesu, na rigaya na hukunta wannan mutum.

5 you should hand that man over to Satan. Then Satan can injure/punish his body, in order that [he will turn away from his sinful behavior] and his spirit will be saved on the day when the Lord [returns] [MTY].

Na yi haka ne domin in mika wannan mutum ga Shaidan domin a hallaka jikin, don ruhunsa ya tsira a ranar Ubangiji.

6 It is not good that, [while you are letting that immoral man continue to be in your congregation], you are boasting [about being spiritually mature]. (You know that a small amount of yeast affects all the bread dough [MET] [into which it is put] {[a woman puts it]}./Do you not know that a small amount of yeast affects all the bread dough [MET] [into which it is put]?) [RHQ] [Similarly, one person who continues to sin will have a bad effect on all the congregation].

Fahariyarku bata yi kyau ba. Ko baku sani ba yisti dan kadan ya kan bata dukan dunkule?

7 So, [just like we Jews] expel the old yeast [from our houses during the Passover celebration] in order that we may have a fresh batch of dough without yeast in it [MET], [you must expel such evil people from your congregation]. Do [that so that you can truly be holy people], as [I know that] you really are. Remember that Christ was sacrificed {sacrificed himself} [so that God could spare us from being punished for our sins, just like the Jews sacrificed lambs during] the [first] Passover celebration [so that God would spare their firstborn sons from being killed].

Ku tsarkake kan ku daga tsohon yisti domin ku zama sabon dunkule, wato gurasar da ba ta da yisti. Gama an yi hadayar Almsihu, dan ragonmu na idi.

8 So let us celebrate [the fact that God has freed us from being punished us for our sins] [MET], [just like the Jews] in [later years] celebrated Passover [to celebrate God freeing them from being slaves in Egypt. They made sure that there was] no old yeast in the dough. [They ate bread that] had no yeast in it. [Similarly], [we should make sure that there are no people in our congregations] [MET] [who act] maliciously [toward others] or [act] wickedly. Instead, [make sure] [MET] [that all those in our congregations are ones who act] sincerely and [speak] truthfully.

Don haka, bari mu yi idinmu ba da tsohon yisti ba, wato yisti irin na rashin tabi'a da mugunta. Maimakon haka, bari muyi bukin idi da gurasa marar yisti ta aminci da gaskiya.

9 In the previous letter that I wrote to you, I said that you should not associate with sexually immoral people.

Na rubuta maku a cikin wasikata cewa kada ku yi hudda da fasikan mutane.

10 I did not mean that you should not associate with unbelievers who are immoral, or who desire things that belong to others, or who (forcefully seize things that belong to others/are swindlers), or who worship idols. You would have to leave this world [to avoid all people] like that.

Ba ina nufin fasikan mutane na wannan duniya ba, ko masu zari, ko 'yan'damfara, ko masu bautar gumaka, tunda kafin ku rabu da su sai kun bar wannan duniya.

11 But now [I am stating clearly that] when I wrote, I [meant that] you should not associate with those who say that they are fellow believers, if they are sexually immoral or if they desire and forcefully seize things that belong to others, or worship idols, or slander others, or become drunk. You should not associate with people like that, and you should not even eat with them!

Amma yanzu ina rubuta maku cewa kada ku yi hudda da duk wanda ake kira dan'uwa amma yana zama cikin fasikanci, ko zari, ko bautar gumaka, ko in shi mai ashar ne, ko mashayi, ko dan'damfara. Kada ko abinci ku ci da irin wannan mutum.

12 It is certainly not [RHQ] my business to judge people who are not believers and who do not belong to [Christian congregations]. But it certainly is [RHQ] your business to judge those who are in [your congregation]!

Domin ta yaya zan iya shar'anta wadanda ba 'yan Ikklisiya ba? Maimakon haka, ba ku ne zaku shar'anta wadanda ke cikin ikilisiya ba?

13 God is the one who will judge those who are not believers. [Do as the Scriptures command]: “Expel the wicked person from your midst!”

Amma Allah ke shar'anta wadanda ke waje. “Ku fitar da mugun mutumin daga cikin ku.”
