1 Akorinitho 5
1 Nĩ ma ndeto nĩiraario atĩ thĩinĩ wanyu kũrĩ na ũtharia, na nĩ ũtharia mũthemba ũrĩa ũtangĩoneka o na kũrĩ andũ arĩa matetĩkĩtie Ngai: Naguo nĩ atĩ ũmwe wanyu nĩakomete na mũtumia wa ithe.
It is reported commonly [that there is] fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father’s wife.
2 Na inyuĩ mũgakenera ũndũ ũcio! Githĩ mũtiagĩrĩirwo nĩgũkorwo mũiyũrĩtwo nĩ kĩeha, nĩguo mũndũ ũcio wĩkĩte ũguo mũmũingate, ehere ngwatanĩro-inĩ yanyu?
And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
3 O na ndakorwo ndirĩ hamwe na inyuĩ kũu, ndĩ hamwe na inyuĩ thĩinĩ wa roho, na nĩndĩkĩtie gũtuĩra mũndũ ũcio wĩkĩte ũguo ciira, o ta ndĩ hamwe na inyuĩ.
For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, [concerning] him that hath so done this deed,
4 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũrĩkorwo mũnganĩte thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Mwathani witũ Jesũ, na niĩ ndĩ hamwe na inyuĩ thĩinĩ wa roho, o na hinya wa Mwathani witũ Jesũ ũrĩ ho-rĩ,
In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
5 mũndũ ũcio mũneanei kũrĩ Shaitani, nĩgeetha mehia make ma kĩĩmwĩrĩ maniinwo, naguo roho wake ũkaahonokio mũthenya ũrĩa wa Mwathani.
To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
6 Mwĩgaatho ũcio wanyu ti mwega. Kaĩ inyuĩ mũtooĩ atĩ ndawa nini ya kũimbia mĩgate nĩĩtũmaga kĩmere gĩothe kĩimbe?
Your glorying [is] not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
7 Eheriai ndawa ĩyo ya kũimbia mĩgate ĩrĩa ya tene biũ nĩguo mũtuĩke kĩmere kĩerũ gĩtarĩ na ndawa ya kũimbia, tondũ ũguo nĩguo mũtariĩ. Nĩgũkorwo Kristũ, o we gatũrũme gaitũ ka Bathaka, nĩarĩkĩtie kũrutwo igongona.
Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
8 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, nĩtũkũngũĩre Gĩathĩ, ti na ndawa ĩyo ya tene ya kũimbia mĩgate, ĩyo ya rũmena na ya waganu, no tũkũngũĩre na mũgate ũtarĩ na ndawa ya kũimbia, o guo mũgate wa wĩhokeku na wa ũhoro wa ma.
Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened [bread] of sincerity and truth.
9 Nĩndĩmwandĩkĩire marũa-inĩ makwa ngamwĩra mũtigage kũgĩaga thiritũ na andũ arĩa ahũũri maraya,
I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:
10 ũguo ti kuuga mweheranĩre na andũ a thĩ ĩno, arĩa ahũũri maraya, kana arĩa akoroku, kana arĩa atunyani, o na kana arĩa ahooi mĩhianano. Mũngĩĩka ũguo-rĩ, no mũkiumire gũkũ thĩ.
Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.
11 No rĩu, ndĩramwandĩkĩra nĩguo mũtikagĩe thiritũ na mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũrĩa wĩĩtaga mũrũ kana mwarĩ wa Ithe witũ, no nĩ mũhũũri maraya, kana nĩ mũkoroku, kana nĩ mũhooi mĩhianano kana nĩ mũndũ wa gũcambania, o na kana nĩ mũrĩĩu wa njoohi kana nĩ mũtunyani. Mũndũ ta ũcio mũtikarĩĩanĩre nake.
But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
12 Ũkĩrĩ wĩra wakwa gũciirithia arĩa matarĩ a kanitha? Githĩ inyuĩ mũtikĩagĩrĩirwo nĩgũciirithia arĩa marĩ a kanitha?
For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
13 Ngai nĩwe ũgaaciirithia arĩa marĩ nja. “Ingatai mũndũ ũcio mwaganu oime thĩinĩ wanyu.”
But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
