1 Ndị Kọrint 6
1 Mgbe onye ọbụla nʼetiti unu nwere esemokwu megide ibe ya, unu ọ pụrụ i buru okwu ahụ gaa nʼụlọikpe ka ndị ajọ omume kpeere unu ikpe, karịa ịga ya nʼihu ndị nsọ?
Dare any of you, having a matter of complaint against another, try it before the unjust, and not before the saints?
2 Ọ bụ na unu amabeghị na ọ bụ ndị nsọ ga-ekpe ụwa ikpe? Ọ bụrụkwa na unu ga-ekpe ụwa ikpe, ọ pụtara na unu etozughị oke idozi okwu ntakịrị dapụtara nʼetiti unu?
Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? And if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy of judging the smallest controversies?
3 Ọ bụ na unu amataghị na ọ bụ anyị ga-ekpe ndị mmụọ ozi ikpe? Gịnị ga-emekwa ka anyị ghara idozi okwu ụka dịkarịsịrị nta nke ndụ a?
Know ye not that we shall judge angels? what! and not worthy of judging the affairs of this life?
4 Ya mere, ọ bụrụ na esemokwu dị otu a adapụta nʼetiti unu, unu ga-ewere okwu ahụ jekwuru ndị ibi ndụ ha na-akpọ nzukọ ihe efu ka ha kpee ya?
Therefore if ye have controversies about the things of this life, do ye set them to judge, who are despised by the church?
5 Ana m ekwu nke a ime ka ihere mee unu. Ọ ga-abụ na e nweghị ike ịchọta ọ bụladị otu onye maara ihe nʼetiti unu, onye ga na-ekpe ikpe dị nʼetiti nwanna na ibe ya?
I speak it to your shame. What! is there not one wise man among you, that is able to judge between his bretheren?
6 Ma lee, nwanna na-akpọrọ nwanna ya aga ụlọ ikpe, ka ndị na-ekweghị ekwe kpee ha ikpe!
But one brother goeth to law with another, and this before infidels.
7 Ebe unu na-enwe esemokwu nke ikpe ikpe nʼetiti unu, ọ pụtara na unu bụ ndị emeriri kpamkpam. Nʼihi gịnị ka unu na-adịghị ekwe ka emejọ unu? Nʼihi gịnị ka unu na-adịghị ekwe ka a ghọgbuo unu?
Now there is certainly a fault among you, that ye have law-suits with one another: why do ye not rather endure wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?
8 Ma unu onwe unu na-emejọ, ma na-aghọgbu, ọ bụladị ụmụnna unu nʼime Kraịst.
But ye do wrong and defraud, and that even your brethren.
9 Ọ bụ na unu amaghị na ndị na-eme ajọ omume dị otu a enweghị oke ọbụla nʼalaeze Chineke? Unu ekwela ka eduhie unu. Nʼihi na ọ dịghị onye ọbụla na-akwa iko, na ndị na-efe arụsị, ndị ikom nwere nwunye na-akwa iko, na ndị ikom na-eji ndị ikom ibe ha akwa iko,
What! know ye not that the unjust shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor the effeminate, nor sodomites, nor thieves,
10 ndị niile na-ezu ohi, ndị anya ukwu, ndị na-aṅụbiga mmanya oke, ndị nkwutọ, maọbụ ndị na-apụnara mmadụ ihe ha nwere, agaghị eketa oke nʼalaeze Chineke.
nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor rapacious persons, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
11 Na mbụ, ụfọdụ nʼime unu na-ebi ndụ dị otu a. Ma ugbu a, a sachapụla mmehie unu, doo unu nsọ nye Chineke. Ọ bụkwa site nʼaha Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst na nʼime Mmụọ nke Chineke anyị ka a gụrụ unu ka ndị ezi omume.
And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the spirit of our God.
12 Ị na-asị, “Enwere m ike ime ihe niile m maara na m kwesiri ime,” ma ọ bụghị ihe niile ga-abara m uru. “Enwere m ike ime ihe niile m maara ziri ezi,” ma a gaghị ekwe ka ihe ọbụla na-achị m.
All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be under the power of any:
13 Unu na-asị, “E mere ihe oriri maka afọ, meekwa afọ maka ihe oriri, ma Chineke ga-emebi ma afọ ma ihe oriri.” Ekeghị ahụ anyị maka ịkwa iko, kama o mere ya maka Onyenwe anyị, Onyenwe anyị dịkwa maka ahụ anyị.
meats are for the belly, and the belly for meats, but God will destroy both it and them. But the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.
14 Chineke mere ka Onyenwe anyị site nʼọnwụ bilie, ọ ga-ejikwa ike ya mee ka anyị si nʼọnwụ bilie.
And as God hath raised up the Lord, so will He raise up us by his power.
15 Ọ bụ na unu amataghị na ahụ unu bụ akụkụ ahụ Kraịst? Ọ dị mma na m ga-eji ahụ Kraịst mee ka e jikọtaa ya na ahụ nwanyị akwụna? Tụfiaa!
Know ye not that your bodies are members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them members of an harlot?
16 Ọ bụ na unu amataghị na onye ya na nwanyị akwụna na-enwe mmekọrịta, ya na nwanyị ahụ bụ otu ahụ? Nʼihi na e kwuru, “Ha abụọ ga-abụ otu anụ ahụ.”
God forbid! What! know ye not that he who is joined to an harlot is one body with her? for these two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
17 Ma onye ọbụla e jikọtara ya na Onyenwe anyị, ya na onye ahụ ga-abụ otu nʼime mmụọ.
And he that is joined to the Lord is one spirit.
18 Gbaaranụ mmehie ịkwa iko ọsọ. Ọ dịghị mmehie ọzọ na-emetụta anụ ahụ mmadụ dịka mmehie ịkwa iko. Ọ bụ mmehie mmadụ na-eme megide anụ ahụ ya.
Flee from whoredom. Every other sin, that a man committeth, is without the body; but he, that committeth whoredom, sinneth against his own body.
19 Ọ bụ na unu amataghị na ahụ unu bụ ụlọnsọ nke Mmụọ Nsọ ahụ Chineke nyere unu, onye bi nʼime unu? Anụ ahụ unu abụkwaghị nke unu onwe unu, kama unu bụ nke Chineke.
What! know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, which is in you, which ye have from God?
20 E jiri oke ọnụahịa zọpụta unu. Ya mere jirinụ anụ ahụ unu nye Chineke otuto.
and ye are not your own, for ye are bought with a price. Glorify God therefore in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
