1 Corinthians 13
1 If I speak with the languages of men and of angels, but don’t have love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.
Ata neni paweza kutakula luga zya wantu na zya wantumintumi wa kumpindi, kumbiti pawera nahera mafiliru, neni wera gambira lidebi lyahera shintu ama kengeli.
2 If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but don’t have love, I am nothing.
Weza kayi kuwera na lifupu lya kutunga ujumbi wa Mlungu, panuvimana bada zyoseri na kumana kila shintu, weza kuwera na njimiru ya kuyihamiziya migongu, kumbiti pawera nahera mafiliru neni nashintu ndiri.
3 If I give away all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but don’t have love, it profits me nothing.
Pandaviya ulunda waneni woseri na kuwapanana wahushu, kayi pandaviya nshimba yaneni ilunguziwi motu, handa pawera nahera mafiliru neni hapeni mpati shintu.
4 Love is patient and is kind. Love doesn’t envy. Love doesn’t brag, is not proud,
Yakawera na mafiliru kahepeleri na utanga na yakawera na mafiliru kahera weya, hapeni kaweri na malingisi ama kalitumba.
5 doesn’t behave itself inappropriately, doesn’t seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil;
Yakawera na mafiliru hapeni kakosi ligoya, hapeni kasakuli mota yakuwi mweni na hapeni kaweri na maya kanongola longola na hapeni katuli mumoyu vintu vidoda vyawamtendiriti.
6 doesn’t rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;
Mafiliru hapeni gasekeleri ukondola, kumbiti gasekelera unakaka.
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things.
Muntu yakawera na mafiliru kahepeleri goseri na kajimilira goseri na kakanka goseri.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will be done away with. Where there are various languages, they will cease. Where there is knowledge, it will be done away with.
Mafiliru gahera upeleru. Handa kwana mafupu ga kutunga ujumbi wa Mlungu, aga hagawuki lishaka limu, mafupu ga kutakula luga zyazimanika ndiri hagawuki, handa kwana kuvimana hakupiti.
9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part;
Toziya mafupu ga kuvimana vyoseri gamalilika ndiri na lifupu lyatwenga lya kutunga ujumbi wa Mlungu likamilika ndiri.
10 but when that which is complete has come, then that which is partial will be done away with.
Mlungu hakavikamilishi vyoseri, shilii shashikamilika ndiri, hashiwuki.
11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child. Now that I have become a man, I have put away childish things.
Paweriti namwana ntakuliti shiwana, nuvimaniti shiwana, nuliholiti shiwana. Kumbiti vinu neni namuntu mkulu, vitwatira vya shiwana nuvileka.
12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, even as I was also fully known.
Shatuwona vinu shiwoneka gambira sheni shashiwoneka ndiri weri mushiloleru, kumbiti shakapanu hatuwoni sheni kwa sheni. Vinu nuvimana katepu hera, kumbiti shakapanu hanuvimani hweri goseri, gambira Mlungu ntambu yakamana neni.
13 But now faith, hope, and love remain—these three. The greatest of these is love.
Vinu gankulikala matatu aga, njimiru na litumbiru na mafiliru, kumbiti lyaliwera likulu mugoseri ndo mafiliru.
