1 Ndị Kọrint 5
1 Ọ bụ akụkọ doro anya na-enwe ịkwa iko nʼetiti unu, ụdị nke ndị na-ekweghị ekwe na-apụghị ime, ka unu na-eme. Otu onye nʼime ụlọ unu kpọọrọ nwunye nna ya, ha abụọ e biri.
It is actually reported that there is fornication among you, and of a kind unheard of even among the Gentiles--a man has his father's wife!
2 Ma unu na-akpa nganga? Ihe unu kwesiri ime ọ bụghị ịkwa akwa na iru ụjụ, na ime ka onye mere ihe dị otu a si nʼọgbakọ unu pụọ?
And you, instead of mourning and removing from among you the man who has done this deed of shame, are filled with self-complacency!
3 Ọ bụ ezie na mụ na unu anọghị ugbu a, ma mụ na unu nọkwa nʼime mmụọ. Amaala m rịị onye ahụ ikpe dịka a ga-asị na mụ na unu nọ.
I for my part, present with you in spirit although absent in body, have already, as though I were present, judged him who has so acted.
4 Eji m aha Onyenwe anyị ma ya ikpe. Mgbe unu zukọrọ, aga m anọnyere unu na mmụọ. Nʼoge ahụ, site nʼike Onyenwe anyị Jisọs,
In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are all assembled and my spirit is with you, together with the power of our Lord Jesus,
5 werenụ nwoke a nyefee nʼaka ekwensu, ka ọ taa anụ ahụ ya ahụhụ, ka e nwee ike ịzọpụta mmụọ ya, mgbe Onyenwe anyị lọghachiri.
I have handed over such a man to Satan for the destruction of his body, that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord Jesus.
6 Ịnya isi unu ezighị ezi. Ọ bụ unu amaghị na nwantakịrị yiist a gwakọrọ nʼụtụ ọka na-eme ka o koo?
It is no good thing--this which you make the ground of your boasting. Do you not know that a little yeast corrupts the whole of the dough?
7 Wepụnụ ihe nʼeko achịcha a nọ nʼetiti unu, ka unu bụrụ ndị dị ọhụrụ, na ndị dị ọcha. Nʼihi na a chụọlarị Kraịst, bụ aja nwa atụrụ, nke Ngabiga anyị.
Get rid of the old yeast so that you may be dough of a new kind; for in fact you are free from corruption. For our Passover Lamb has already been offered in sacrifice--even Christ.
8 Nʼihi ya ka anyị mee mmemme a na-ejighị ihe na-eko achịcha nke bụ ihe ọjọọ na obi ọjọọ, kama ka anyị jiri achịcha na-ekoghị eko nke bụ obi ọcha na eziokwu.
Therefore let us keep our festival not with old yeast nor with the yeast of what is evil and mischievous, but with bread free from yeast--the bread of transparent sincerity and of truth.
9 E dere m unu nʼime akwụkwọ ozi m, ka unu na ndị na-akwa iko ghara inwe mmekọ ọbụla.
I wrote to you in that letter that you were not to associate with fornicators;
10 Ọ bụghị ihe gbasara ndị nke ụwa ndị na-akwa iko, maọbụ ndị anya ukwu, na ndị na-apụnara mmadụ ihe, maọbụ ndị na-ekpere arụsị. Ọ bụrụ otu a, ọ pụtara na unu ga-esi nʼụwa pụọ.
not that in this world you are to keep wholly aloof from such as they, any more than from people who are avaricious and greedy of gain, or from worshippers of idols. For that would mean that you would be compelled to go out of the world altogether.
11 Ma ugbu a, a na m edere unu ka unu na onye ọbụla nke na-akpọ onwe ya nwanna nwoke maọbụ nwanna nwanyị ghara imekọ ihe, ma ọ bụrụ na ọ na-ebi ndụ ịkwa iko, maọbụ nwee anya ukwu, maọbụ na-ekpere arụsị, onye na-ekwutọ ibe ya, onye na-aṅụbiga mmanya oke, maọbụ onye na-apụnara mmadụ ihe. Unu na ndị dị otu a erikọla nri.
But what I meant was that you were not to associate with any one bearing the name of "brother," if he was addicted to fornication or avarice or idol-worship or abusive language or hard-drinking or greed of gain. With such a man you ought not even to eat.
12 Kedụ nke gbasara m ikpe ndị na-esoghị na chọọchị ikpe? Ọ bụghị ndị nọ nʼime ka unu ga-ekpe ikpe.
For what business of mine is it to judge outsiders? Is it not for you to judge those who are within the Church
13 Chineke ga-ekpe ndị nọ nʼezi ikpe. “Chụpụnụ onye ajọọ mmadụ ahụ site nʼetiti unu.”
while you leave to God's judgement those who are outside? Remove the wicked man from among you.
