1 Ndị Kọrint 16
1 Nʼihe niile banyere ụtụ ihe onyinye nke ndị nsọ, gbalịanụ mee dịka m nyere ndị chọọchị dị nʼakụkụ Galeshịa nʼiwu.
NOW concerning the collection which is for the saints, as I have given an order to the churches of Galatia, so also do ye.
2 Ụbọchị ụka niile, ka onye ọbụla site nʼihe ọ kpatara nʼizu ụka ahụ wepụta ụfọdụ ihe nke ọ ga-eji nye onyinye a. Unu e cherekwala ịnakọta ihe onyinye ndị a ruo mgbe m ga-abịa. Ka a hapụ iche tutu ruo mgbe m bịara.
On the first day of the week let every one of you set apart with himself, treasuring it up, whatsoever he may please to give, that when I come there may be then no gatherings.
3 Mgbe m bịara, aga m edenye ndị ahụ kwesiri ntụkwasị obi, bụ ndị unu họpụtara akwụkwọ nkọwa, ziga ha ibugara ndị nọ na Jerusalem onyinye obiọma unu.
But when I come, whosoever you shall approve by letters, those will I send to carry your charity to Jerusalem.
4 Ọ bụrụkwa na ọ dị mkpa na m ga-eso ha gaa, mụ na ha ga-esoro.
But if it be of importance that I should go also, they shall go with me.
5 Aga m abịa ileta unu mgbe m gasịrị Masidonia. Nʼihi na ana m ezube isi nʼụzọ Masidonia abịa.
Now I will come unto you when I have passed through Macedonia (for I am passing through Macedonia);
6 Mgbe m bịara, ọ na-adị m ka mụ na unu ga-anọ ogologo oge. Ma eleghị anya, anyị ga-anọ tutu oge oyi agwụ. Mgbe ahụ site, nʼinyeaka unu, aga m ahapụ unu gaa ebe ọzọ.
and perhaps I shall abide with you, yea and winter with you, that you may send me forward whithersoever I go.
7 Nʼihi na-achọghị m ileta unu ugbu a m nọ nʼije ngafere. Kama ana m ezube ịbịa nọnyere unu nwa oge, ma ọ bụrụ na Onyenwe anyị e kwenye.
For I will not see you now in passing, but I hope to remain some considerable time with you if the Lord permit.
8 Ma aga m anọ nʼEfesọs tutu ruo oge Pentikọọsụ,
But I shall abide at Ephesus until the Pentecost:
9 nʼihi na-emegheela ọnụ ụzọ dị ukwuu nke na-arụpụta ezi ọrụ nye m, ma ha dị ọtụtụ bụ ndị na-eguzogide m.
for there is opened to me a great door, and effectual, and there are many adversaries.
10 Ọ bụrụ na Timoti abịa, lezienụ anya mee ka ọ ghara inwe ihe ọ ga-atụ egwu mgbe ọ nọ nʼetiti unu, nʼihi na ọ bụ onye na-arụ ọrụ Onyenwe anyị dịka m si arụ ya.
But if Timothy come, see that he may be among you without fear: for he worketh the Lord’s work, as I also do.
11 Ka onye ọbụla ghara ileda ya anya. Kama, dupunụ ya nʼije ya nʼudo ka o nwe ike lọghachikwute m. Mụ na ụmụnna ndị ọzọ na-ele anya nlọta ya.
Let no man therefore treat him with disrespect; but forward him on his way in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brethren.
12 Arịrịọ m nwanne anyị Apọlọs ka o soro ụmụnna ndị ọzọ bịa leta unu, ma ọ bụghị uche ya ma ọlị ịbịakwute unu ugbu a. Ọ ga-abịa mgbe ọbụla ohere pụtara.
As concerning brother Apollos, I besought him much that he would come to you with the brethren; but it was not at all his wish to come at this time: but he will come when he can find a good opportunity.
13 Na-echenụ nche mgbe niile, guzosienụ ike nʼime okwukwe unu. Dịrịnụ ka ndị tozuru dimkpa, ndị dị ike.
Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, be manful, be strong.
14 Werenụ ịhụnanya na-arụ ọrụ ọbụla unu na-arụ.
Let all your concerns be transacted in love.
15 Ugbu a, arịọ m unu ụmụnna m, unu maara na ezinaụlọ Stefanas bụ ndị mbụ kwere ekwe nʼala Akaịa. Ha nyekwara onwe ha maka ijere ndị nsọ ozi.
Now I exhort you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first fruits of Achaia, and they have devoted themselves to the ministry of the saints: )
16 Ana m arịọ unu ka unu na-asọpụrụ ndị dị otu a, nakwa onye ọbụla bụ onye otu anyị na onye ọrụ anyị.
wherefore submit yourselves to such, and to every one that worketh with us and laboureth.
17 Obi tọrọ m ụtọ nʼọbịbịa nke Stefanas na Fọtunetus na Akaikọs. Ha emelara m ihe unu gaara emere m, ma a sị na unu nọ nʼebe a.
I rejoice in the arrival of Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus; because what was lacking from you, they have supplied.
18 Ha kwalitere mmụọ m dịka ha kwalitere nke unu. Nyenụ ndị dị otu a nsọpụrụ.
For they have refreshed my spirit and yours; respect therefore such men.
19 Ụlọ chọọchị niile dị nʼokpuru Eshịa na-ezitere unu ozi ekele. Akwila na Prisila, na nzukọ dị nʼụlọ ha na-enye unu ekele obiọma nʼime Onyenwe anyị.
The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church which is in their house.
20 Ụmụnna niile nọ nʼebe a na-ekele unu. Werenụ isurita ọnụ dị nsọ kelerịta onwe unu.
All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.
21 Ọ bụ mụ onwe m bụ Pọl ji aka m na-ede ekele nke a.
The salutation of Paul with mine own hand.
22 Ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla ahụghị Onyenwe anyị nʼanya, ka ọ bụrụ onye a bụrụ ọnụ. Onyenwe anyị bịa!
If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema, Maranatha.
23 Ka amara Onyenwe anyị Jisọs dịnyere unu.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
24 Ka ịhụnanya m dịnyere unu niile site nʼOnyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst. Amen.
My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen. The first epistle to the Corinthians was written from Philippi by Stephanas, and Fortunatus, and Achaicus, and Timothy.
