1 Corinthians 13
1 If I can speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but am destitute of Love, I have but become a loud-sounding trumpet or a clanging cymbal.
Tujobhai kuya ninena kwa lugha sa bhanadamu ni sa malaika. Kakiyele kutya ni dulili upendo, niyele shaba yayilela au upatu wa wivuma.
2 If I possess the gift of prophecy and am versed in all mysteries and all knowledge, and have such absolute faith that I can remove mountains, but am destitute of Love, I am nothing.
Ni ndabha niyele ni kalama ya unabii ni ufahamu wa kueli sa sifighibhu ni maalifa, ni kuwa niyele ni imani ya kuhamisya kid'onda.
3 And if I distribute all my possessions to the poor, and give up my body to be burned, but am destitute of Love, it profits me nothing.
Kakiyele ikayelai nidulili upendo, nene khenu hee. Ni tujobhelai ndabha nipisya miliki jha nene jhioha ni kubhalesya bha b'onji ni kujha nikabhuh'omesya mb'el'e bhuangu ili nihomibhwayi ni kunyanyibhwa muoto. Lakini kama nidulili luganu jhikanitangalila lepi khenu.
4 Love is patient and kind. Love knows neither envy nor jealousy. Love is not forward and self-assertive, nor boastful and conceited.
Luganu lwisindamala ni kutangatila. Luganu lwikitufya lepi au kwifuna. Kijhelepi kiburi
5 She does not behave unbecomingly, nor seek to aggrandize herself, nor blaze out in passionate anger, nor brood over wrongs.
au bhupasioli. Bhwilonda lepi mambo gha muene, wibhonalepi bhuchungu manyata, bhwala bhwibhalangalepi mabhibhi.
6 She finds no pleasure in injustice done to others, but joyfully sides with the truth.
Bhwihobhokela lepi bhudhalimu. Badala jhiake, bhwihobhoka mu bhukweli.
7 She knows how to be silent. She is full of trust, full of hope, full of patient endurance.
Luganu lwisindmala mambo ghoha, bhwikiera mambo ghoha bhujhe ni bhujasiri bhuoha mu mambo ghoha, ni kusindamala mambo ghoha.
8 Love never fails. But if there are prophecies, they will be done away with; if there are languages, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be brought to an end.
Luganu lwisindwa lepi. Ikajhiajhi bhujhe bhunabii, bhuoha bhwip'eta. Ikajhiajhi lugha, sibetakuleka. Ikajhiajhi kujha ni maarifa, ghibetakul'ota.
9 For our knowledge is imperfect, and so is our prophesying;
Kwa kujha tumanyili kwa sehemu na twibhomba bhunabii kwa sehemu.
10 but when the perfect state of things is come, all that is imperfect will be brought to an end.
Lakini pajhihida hela jha jhikamiliki, jhela jhajhibeli kujha kamili jhibeta kulota.
11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, felt like a child, reasoned like a child: when I became a man, I put from me childish ways.
Bhonijhi ne muana, najobhili kama muana, ifikirireghe kama muana, niamuleghe kama muana. Bho nijhele ne n'nyuluala, nabhekhili patali ni nene mambo gha bhuana.
12 For the present we see things as if in a mirror, and are puzzled; but then we shall see them face to face. For the present the knowledge I gain is imperfect; but then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
Kwa kujha henu twilola kama kiobho, kama sura mu ngisi, lakini wakati bhola twibetakubhona mihu kwa mihu. Henu nimanyili kwa sehemu, lakini bhwakati bhola nibetakumanya nesu kama ni nene kyanimanyikene nesu.
13 And so there remain Faith, Hope, Love--these three; and of these the greatest is Love.
Lakini henu mambo agha madatu ghitamisya: Imani, tumaini lya lihida, ni luganu. Lakini lya lijhele libhaha nesu jha agha ndo luganu.
