1 Corinthians 6
1 [Now another matter]: When any of you [believers] accuses another believer about some matter, he takes that matter to judges who are not believers, [for them to decide the case], instead of asking God’s people [to decide it]. (That is disgusting!/Why do you do that?) [RHQ]
Assa umon mine di nin nung nin mong, a ba yiru gwane a do mun kuti nshariya nyih? Ado ninghe kitin nan salin nyiru Kutellẹ. Na mbara a do mun kiti nibinai nilau.
2 [I want] you to know that [we who are] God’s people will [some day] judge those who are unbelievers. [RHQ] So, since you will be judging unbelievers, you certainly are capable of judging between [believers who disagree on] small matters! [RHQ]
Na ayiru anan nibinai nilau nyiru Kutellẹ ima su uyẹ ushara ba? Andi anung iba sharantu uyii, na iwanya ikelle imon inanzan ba?
3 (You should keep in mind that we will even judge angels!/Do you not know that we will even judge angels?) [RHQ] So we certainly should be able to judge about [matters that relate to how we] conduct our lives here on earth!
Na iyiru tibasu nono kadura Kutellẹ ushara ba? Andi nanere iyaghari ba wantinari tisu ushara nimon natibit ba?
4 Therefore, when you [believers] have a dispute, you should certainly not choose as judges [to decide your case] people whom the congregation cannot respect [because those judges are not believers]! [RHQ]
Andi ibassu ushariya nimon ushafa kolomeliri, bara iyanghari iba yiru ille imone idomun kiti nale na idimun liyisin licine nanya nono Kutellẹ ba?
5 I am saying this to make you ashamed. Surely there is someone among you who is wise enough to judge disputes between believers! [RHQ]
Imon ncighari kiti mine. Na umon unang nyiru duku nan nya mine ulle na awanya a kelle nnung me kitik mine linana nanilime nan nishono ba?
6 But instead, some believers [among you] accuse other believers in a legal court. And what is worse, you let the cases be judged by unbelievers {unbelievers judge the cases}!
Nafo na ulire di, ulle na ayinna nin Kutellẹ asa ado nin gwana unan yinni nin Kutellẹ kutii nshariya, i do mun kiti nnan nshara ulenghe na ayiru Kutellẹ ba!
7 The fact that you have any lawsuits among you [shows that] you have completely failed [as Christians] (OR, [allowed Satan to] defeat you). You should [allow other believers] to wrong you [without taking them to court!]! [RHQ] You should not accuse them when [they] cheat you! [RHQ]
Kidene andi nnung di nan nya mine anun anan nbi imal diu. Iyaghari ba wantin minu useru kulape, iyari bati na iba yinnu fi ba? Vat nin nani fe nari usunu icuce muna ba?
8 But [what is happening is that] some of you are cheating others and doing wrong to them. [That is bad]. But you are doing that to fellow believers, [and that is worse]!
Anung nati alapi icuce among nuwana mine, nilime nan nishono!
9 (You should keep in mind that wicked people will not become [members of] the group over whom God will rule./Do you not know that wicked people will not become [members of] the group over whom God will rule?) [RHQ] Do not be deceived {Do not deceive yourselves} [by thinking wrongly about these matters]. People who are sexually immoral, or who worship idols, or who (commit adultery/have sex with someone to whom they are not married), or who happily allow others to commit homosexual acts with them, or who take the initiative in committing homosexual acts,
Na anun yiru ba anan nsu lidu linanzang iba diru ugadu kilari tigoh Kutellẹ ba? Yenje iwa yinin nin kinu. Anan nnozu nin na nawani buu, anan nchil, anan nzina, ukaruwa gankilime nin nani lime anan nozu nan nanilime,
10 or who are thieves, or who desire and forcefully seize things that belong to others, or who are drunkards, or who slander others, or who are swindlers, will not enter the place where God rules.
alikiri, anan nsu nimon nyi, anan nsontoro, unan minu nimon nanit- na umon mine ba se ugadu tigoh Kutellẹ ba.
11 Some of you previously did things like that. But [God] has freed/cleansed you [MET] [from your sinful behavior]. [He] has set you apart for himself. [He] has erased the record of your sins [because you trusted] [MTY] in the Lord Jesus Christ and because of what the Spirit of our God [has done for you].
Among mine nadi nanere. Ina ni kussu munu, inani na lente lau, inani natimunu iso dert nan Kutellẹ nanyan Lisa Nchikilari Yesu Kristi nin nfip milau Kutellẹ bite.
12 [Some of you may say], “God allows us to do anything [that he does not forbid].” But [I would reply], “[That is true], but not everything that God permits us to do helps us.” [Yes, as some of you say], God permits us to do anything [that he does not forbid]. But as for me, I will not let anything make me [its slave; that is, I will not do anything that will gain control over me in such a way that I will not be able to stop doing it].
“Ko iyene imon icineari kitinigh,” bara na ni ko iyaghari imon icine ba. “Ko iyeme imone icineari kitinigh,” na mbaso kucin nimon imon nyẹ ba.
13 [Some of you may also say], “Food is just for [us to put in] the stomach, and the stomach is just for [us to put] food [in]. And since God will do away with food and stomachs [when he gives us our new bodies, what we do with our bodies sexually does not affect us any more than eating food does.” But what you have concluded is wrong, because] the Lord does not [want us to use] our bodies to do sexually immoral things. Instead, the Lord [wants us to use our bodies in ways that please him]. Also, the Lord [wants us to do what is good] for our bodies.
“Imonli libburiari, libburi tutun bara imonliari,” amma Kutellẹ ba narri inin vat. Na kidowo ina ke kin bara usuzun uzinari ba, ina ke kidowo bara Chikilari, ame ba pizuru kidowo imonle Chikilari.
14 God, by his power, caused the Lord [Jesus] to live again after he died, and he will cause us to live again after we die, [which shows that he is very concerned about our bodies].
Kutellẹ wa fya Chikilare aba kuru a fya arik ku nan nya likari me.
15 You should keep in mind that your bodies belong to Christ. [RHQ] So, should I [or any other believer] [RHQ] take our body, which belongs to Christ, and join it [sexually] to a prostitute? No, certainly not!
Na iyiru anung abiri nidowo nin Kristie? Ba na mba yaunu abiri kidowa Kristi mmunu nin kilakia? na uwa so nani ba!
16 When a man has sexual relations [EUP] with a prostitute, [it is as though] their two bodies become one body. (You should never forget that!/Do you not know that?) [RHQ] What [Moses] wrote [about people who join together sexually is], “The two of them will become [as though they are] one body.”
Na iyuru ba ulle na amunu kidowo nin nkilaki iso kidowo kirum ninghe ba? Nafo na inyerte na bellin, “Awanbe ba so kidowo kirum.”
17 But anyone who is united {who joins himself} to the Lord becomes one with him spiritually.
Nanere ulle na amunu Chikilari iso fisudu wurume ninghe.
18 Always (run away from/avoid) committing sexually immoral acts. Other sins that people commit do not affect their bodies, but those who commit sexually immoral acts sin against their own bodies.
Choon piit kitin kulapin nzina! “Ko kome kulapi na unit din nsu kudii mamal kidowari,” unan su kulapin nzina adinsu nan nya kidowo mere.
19 (Keep in mind that your bodies are [like] [MET] temples of the Holy Spirit./Do you not know that your bodies are [like] [MET] temples of the Holy Spirit?) [RHQ] The Spirit, whom God gave you, lives within you. You do not belong to yourselves. You belong to God,
Na anung nyiru nidowo mine Kuti Lisosin Nfip milau ulle na assosin nan nya mine ba, ulle na ina seru kiti Kutelle? Na anung anan natiminere ba?
20 [because when his Son died for you it was as though] [MET] [God] paid a price for you. So honor God by [how you use] your bodies!
Bara ina seru munu nin nimon ilau. Bara ikatin ikurfung nani sun liru Kutellẹ nan nya nidowo mine.
