< Korintotɔwo 1 6 >

1 Nɔvinyewo, nu ka ta, ne masɔmasɔ aɖe dzɔ le mi kristotɔwo dome la, mietsɔa nya la yia fia alo dukɔa ƒe ʋɔnudrɔ̃ƒe be ame siwo mevɔa Mawu o la nadrɔ̃ na mi, esi wòle be miayi kristotɔwo boŋ gbɔ?
Dare any of you, hauing businesse against an other, be iudged vnder the vniust, and not vnder the Saintes?
2 Ɖe mienyae bena, gbe ɖeka la, mí kristotɔwoe aɖu fia ɖe xexea me blibo dzi, eye míadrɔ̃ ʋɔnu xexea me tɔwo o mahã? Nu ka ta miate ŋu adzra nya suewo ɖo le mia nɔewo dome o?
Doe ye not knowe, that the Saintes shall iudge the worlde? If the worlde then shalbe iudged by you, are ye vnworthie to iudge the smallest matters?
3 Alo mienya be gbe aɖe gbe la, mí kristotɔwoe adrɔ̃ ʋɔnu mawudɔla siwo le dziƒo gɔ̃ hã, ʋuu keke wòahayi agbe sia me nuwo nye ge oa?
Knowe ye not that we shall iudge the Angels? howe much more, things that perteine to this life?
4 Nu ka ta wòhiã be miatsɔ miaƒe nyawo ayi na dzimaxɔsetɔwo be woadrɔ̃ na mi?
If then ye haue iudgements of things perteining to this life, set vp them which are least esteemed in the Church.
5 Mele nya siawo gblɔm kple susu be ŋu nakpe mi. Ɖe miele gbɔgblɔm be le miaƒe hame bliboa me la, ame aɖeke kura meli si si susu le, ale be wòate ŋu awɔ nya siawo ŋu dɔ na mi oa?
I speake it to your shame. Is it so that there is not a wise man among you? no not one, that can iudge betweene his brethren?
6 Ke nu ka ta wòle dzɔdzɔm le mia dome be kristotɔ nakplɔ nɔvia kristotɔ ayi ʋɔnu le dzimaxɔsetɔwo, ame siwo menya Mawu o la gbɔ?
But a brother goeth to law with a brother, and that vnder the infidels.
7 Ale si mietsɔ nya ɖe mia nɔewo ŋu le ʋɔnu ɖeɖe dzaa fia be woɖu mia dzi xoxo. Nu ka wɔ miaɖe mɔ be woada vo ɖe mia ŋu boŋ o? Nu ka ta miaɖe mɔ be woaba mi boŋ o?
Nowe therefore there is altogether infirmitie in you, in that yee goe to lawe one with another: why rather suffer ye not wrong? why rather susteine yee not harme?
8 Ewɔ nublanui ŋutɔ be miawo boŋue le nu vlowo wɔm. Miele amebaba dzi ɣe sia ɣi, eye esi gavlo wue nye be miewɔa nu siawo ɖe mia nɔvi kristotɔwo kekeake hã ŋu.
Nay, yee your selues doe wrong, and doe harme, and that to your brethren.
9 Ɖe mienyae be ame vɔ̃ɖiwo manyi mawufiaɖuƒe la ƒe dome oa? Migana woable mi o. Ahasiwɔlawo, trɔ̃subɔlawo, matrewɔlawo kple ŋutsu siwo dɔna kple ŋutsu bubuwo,
Knowe yee not that the vnrighteous shall not inherite the kingdome of God? Be not deceiued: neither fornicatours, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor wantons, nor buggerers,
10 fiafitɔwo kple ŋubiãlawo kple ahamulawo, ameŋunyagblɔlawo kple amebalawo la, womanyi mawufiaɖuƒe la ƒe dome o.
Nor theeues, nor couetous, nor drunkards, nor railers, nor extortioners shall inherite the kingdome of God.
11 Tsã la, mia dometɔ aɖewo ƒe agbenɔnɔ sɔ pɛpɛpɛ kple ame baɖa siawo tɔ. Ke fifia la, woklɔ miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã ɖa le mia ŋu eye le nu si Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo kple Mawu ƒe Gbɔgbɔ la wɔ na mi ta la, Mawu xɔ mi miezu eƒe ame tɔxɛwo.
And such were some of you: but yee are washed, but yee are sanctified, but yee are iustified in the Name of the Lord Iesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
12 Mia dometɔ aɖewo le gbɔgblɔm be, “Mɔɖeɖe li be míate ŋu awɔ nu sia nu faa” ne Aƒetɔ Yesu mede se tɔxɛ aɖeke ɖe wo ŋu o. Esia anya nɔ eme alea gake menye nu sia nu wɔwɔe nyona na ame o. Ame ate ŋu awɔ nu sia nu faa ne mɔɖeɖe li gake menyo be ame nazu kluvi na naneke kura o.
All thinges are lawfull vnto mee, but all thinges are not profitable. I may doe all things, but I will not be brought vnder the power of any thing.
13 Mia dometɔ aɖewo hã be ele eme be, “Mawu wɔ ƒodo na mí be míaɖu nu” gake menye esia ta wòle be ame naɖu nutsu o. Le nyateƒe me la, miganɔ bubum be nuɖuɖu le vevie akpa o elabena gbe ɖeka la, Mawu le nuɖuɖu kple míaƒe ƒodowo siaa ɖe ge ɖa. Medi be mianya nyuie hã be ahasiwɔwɔ menyo le mɔ aɖeke nu o. Menye esia ta wowɔ míaƒe ŋutilã sia ɖo o, ke boŋ ɖe wowɔe na Aƒetɔ la eye enye Aƒetɔ la ƒe didi vevie be ye ŋutɔ yeava nɔ miaƒe ŋutilãwo me.
Meates are ordeined for the bellie, and the belly for the meates: but God shall destroy both it, and them. Nowe the bodie is not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the bodie.
14 Gbe ɖeka la, Mawu afɔ miaƒe ŋutilã ɖe tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome, abe ale si tututu wòtsɔ eƒe ŋusẽ fɔ Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo ɖe tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome ene.
And God hath also raised vp the Lord, and shall raise vs vp by his power.
15 Alo mienya be miaƒe ŋutilãwo nye Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo ƒe ŋutilã ƒe akpa vovovowo oa? Ne ele alea la, ekema ɖe wònyo be miatsɔ Kristo ƒe ŋutilã ade ha kple ahasiwɔla tɔa? Gbeɖe, mele be wòanɔ alea o!
Knowe yee not, that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
16 Ɖe mienya be ame si de ha kple ahasitɔ aɖe la zu ŋutilã ɖeka kplii oa? Elabena wogblɔe be, “Wo ame evea woazu ŋutilã ɖeka.”
Doe ye not knowe, that he which coupleth himselfe with an harlot, is one body? for two, sayeth he, shalbe one flesh.
17 Ke ame si tsɔ eɖokui lé ɖe Aƒetɔ la ŋu la, eya kplii wozu ɖeka le gbɔgbɔ me.
But hee that is ioyned vnto the Lord, is one spirite.
18 Le esia ta mele gbe tem ɖe edzi na mi be miadzudzɔ ahasiwɔwɔ elabena ahasiwɔwɔ nye nu vɔ̃ si ƒoa ɖi ame ƒe ŋutilã. Eya ta ne miewɔ nu vɔ̃ sia la, miawo ŋutɔwo koe akpe fu.
Flee fornication: euery sinne that a man doeth, is without the bodie: but hee that committeth fornication, sinneth against his owne bodie.
19 Nu ka ta va se ɖe fifia hã la, mienya kpɔ be miaƒe ŋutilã nye Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe si Mawu na mi la ƒe nɔƒe eye wòle mia me ɣe sia ɣi o mahã? Miawo ŋutɔ ƒe ŋutilãwo menye mia tɔ o,
Knowe yee not, that your body is the temple of the holy Ghost, which is in you, whom ye haue of God? and yee are not your owne.
20 elabena Mawu ƒle mi ho gã aɖee. Eya ta miwɔ miaƒe ŋutilã ƒe akpa sia akpa ŋu dɔ hena Mawu ƒe dodoɖedzi kple kafukafu elabena etɔwoe mienye.
For yee are bought for a price: therefore glorifie God in your bodie, and in your spirit: for they are Gods.
