1 Abakkolinso 15
1 Abooluganda, mbajjukiza Enjiri gye nababuulira era gye mwakkiriza era gye munywereddemu.
I make known now to you, brothers, the gospel that I evangelised to you, which also you received, in which also you have stood
2 Mulokolebwa lwa Njiri eyo gye nababuulira, bwe muginywererako, naye bwe kitaba bwe kityo muba mwakkiririza bwereere.
through which also you are being saved, to the word I evangelised to you if you hold fast, unless only except in vain you have believed.
3 Kubanga nabategeeza ekigambo ekikulu ennyo nange kye nnaweebwa ekigamba nti Kristo yafa olw’ebibi byaffe, ng’Ebyawandiikibwa bwe bigamba,
I delivered for to you in [the] foremost what also I received that Christ died for the sins of us according to the Scriptures
4 era nti yaziikibwa, n’azuukizibwa ku lunaku olwokusatu ng’Ebyawandiikibwa bwe bigamba,
and that He was buried and that He has been raised on the day the third according to the Scriptures
5 era nti yalabibwa Keefa n’oluvannyuma ekkumi n’ababiri.
and that He appeared to Cephas, then to the Twelve.
6 Era yalabibwa abooluganda abasukka ebikumi ebitaano omulundi gumu era abamu ku abo bakyali balamu newaakubadde ng’abalala baafa.
Thereafter He appeared to above five hundred brothers at once of whom the greater part remain until now, some however (and *k*) were fallen asleep.
7 Olwo n’alyoka alabikira Yakobo, n’oluvannyuma n’alabikira n’abatume bonna.
Then He appeared to James, then to the apostles all.
8 Oluvannyuma lwa bonna n’alyoka alabikira nange, ng’omwana azaalibbwa nga musowole.
Last then of all as an untimely birth He appeared also to me. also to me.
9 Kubanga nze nsembayo mu batume, Era sisaanira na kuyitibwa mutume, kubanga nayigganya Ekkanisa ya Katonda.
I myself for am the least of the apostles who not am fit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God;
10 Naye olw’ekisa kya Katonda ndi nga bwe ndi kaakano, era ekisa Katonda kye yankwatirwa tekyafa bwereere. Kubanga nakola nnyo okusinga abalala bonna, naye si nze nakola wabula ekisa kya Katonda ekiri nange kye kyakola.
By [the] grace however of God I am what I am, and the grace of Him toward me myself not void has been, Rather more excessive than them all I toiled, not I myself however, but the grace of God that [was] with me myself.
11 Oba nze oba bo, be baakola ennyo ekyo si kikulu, ekikulu kye kino nti twababuulira Enjiri era nammwe ne mugikkiriza.
Whether therefore I myself or they, thus we preach and thus you believed.
12 Kale obanga abantu bategeezebwa nti Kristo yazuukizibwa mu bafu lwaki abamu mu mmwe bagamba nti tewali kuzuukira kwa bafu?
If now Christ is preached that out from [the] dead He has been raised, how say among you some that a resurrection of [the] dead not there is?
13 Kale obanga tewali kuzuukira kwa bafu ne Kristo teyazuukizibwa.
If however a resurrection of [the] dead not there is, neither Christ has been raised;
14 Era obanga Kristo teyazuukizibwa, bye tubategeeza tebiriimu, era n’okukkiriza kwammwe tekuliiko kye kugasa.
if then Christ not has been raised, [is] void then (also *no*) the preaching of us, void (now *k*) also the faith (of you. *NK(O)*)
15 Ate era tuba ng’aboogera eby’obulimba ku Katonda, kubanga twakakasa nti Katonda yazuukiza Kristo. Naye teyamuzuukiza bwe kiba ng’abafu tebazuukizibwa.
We are found then also false witnesses of God, because we have witnessed concerning God that He raised up Christ whom not He has raised if indeed if indeed then [the] dead not are raised;
16 Kale obanga abafu tebazuukizibwa, ne Kristo teyazuukizibwa.
If for [the] dead not are raised, neither Christ has been raised;
17 Era obanga Kristo teyazuukizibwa okukkiriza kwammwe tekuliimu nsa, era mukyali mu bibi byammwe.
if then Christ not has been raised, [is] futile the faith of you (is; *o*) still you are in the sins of you;
18 Era n’abo abaafa nga bakkiriza Kristo baazikirira.
Then also those having fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
19 Kale obanga essuubi lyaffe mu Kristo likoma mu bulamu buno bwokka, tuli bakusaasirwa nnyo okusinga abantu bonna.
If in life this in Christ already hoping we are only, more to be pitied than all men we are.
20 Kyokka ddala Kristo yazuukizibwa mu bafu, era bye bibala ebibereberye eby’abo abaafa.
Now however Christ has been raised out from [the] dead, firstfruit of those having fallen asleep (he became. *K*)
21 Kuba ng’okufa bwe kwaleetebwa omuntu, era n’okuzuukira kw’abafu kwaleetebwa muntu.
Since for through a man [came] (*k*) death also through a man resurrection of [the] dead.
22 Kuba ng’abantu bonna bwe baafa olwa Adamu, era bwe batyo bonna balifuulibwa abalamu olwa Kristo.
For as indeed in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
23 Kyokka buli omu mu luwalo lwe, Kristo ye yasooka era bw’alijja ababe ne baddako,
each however in the own order: [the] firstfruit Christ, then those of Christ at the coming of Him;
24 olwo enkomerero n’eryoka etuuka, Kristo n’akwasa Katonda Kitaawe obwakabaka; Kristo ng’amaze okuzikiriza obufuzi bwonna, n’obuyinza bwonna era n’amaanyi gonna.
then the end, when (He may hand over *N(k)(o)*) the kingdom to the God and Father, when He may have annulled all dominion and all authority and power;
25 Kubanga Kristo agwanidde okufuga okutuusa bw’alissa abalabe be bonna wansi w’ebigere bye.
It behooves for Him to reign until that (when *k*) He may have put all the enemies under the feet of Him.
26 Omulabe we alisembayo okuzikirizibwa kwe Kufa.
[The] last enemy to be abolished [is] death.
27 Kubanga yassa ebintu byonna wansi w’ebigere bye. Naye bw’agamba nti ebintu byonna biri wansi we, kitegeeza nti aggyeko oli ey’amusobozesa okufuga ebintu byonna.
All things for He has put in subjection under the feet of Him; When however it may be said that all things have been put in subjection, [it is] evident that [is] excepted the [One who] having put in subjection to Him all things;
28 Katonda bw’alimala okussa byonna mu buyinza bwa Kristo, olwo Kristo yennyini, Omwana we, n’alyoka afugibwa Katonda eyamuwa okufuga byonna. Era olwo Katonda n’alyoka afugira ddala byonna.
When now shall have been subjected to Him all things, then also Himself the Son will be put in subjection to the [One] having put in subjection to Him all things, so that may be God all in all.
29 Kale obanga abafu tebazuukizibwa, abo ababatizibwa ku lw’abafu balikola batya? Era kale lwaki babatizibwa ku lwabwe?
Otherwise what will they do who are baptized for the dead? If at all [the] dead not are raised; why also are they baptized for (*k*) (them? *N(K)O*)
30 Era ffe lwaki tuli mu kabi buli kaseera?
Why also we ourselves are in danger every hour?
31 Abooluganda, olw’okwenyumiriza kwe munninamu, era kwe nnina mu Kristo Yesu Mukama waffe, nkakasa nti nfa buli lunaku.
Every day I die, as surely as (in you *NK(O)*) boasting, (brothers *NO*) which I have in Christ Jesus the Lord of us.
32 Kale obanga nze omuntu obuntu nalwana n’ensolo enkambwe mu Efeso, kingasa ki? Obanga abafu tebazuukizibwa, “Kale tulye tunywe kubanga enkya tuli ba kufa.”
If according to man I fought wild beasts in Ephesus, what to me the profit? If [the] dead not are raised, Let us eat and let us drink, tomorrow for we die.
33 Temulimbibwalimbibwanga, kubanga “emikwano emibi gyonoona empisa ennungi.”
Not do be misled: Do corrupt morals good companionships bad.
34 Mweddemu, mutambulirenga mu butuukirivu mulekeraawo okukola ebibi, kubanga abamu mu mmwe tebamanyi Katonda. Kino nkyogera kubakwasa nsonyi.
do sober up righteously and not do sin; ignorance for of God some have; to [the] shame of you (I speak. *N(k)O*)
35 Naye omuntu ayinza okubuuza nti, “Abafu bazuukizibwa batya?” Era nti, mubiri gwa ngeri ki gwe bajja nagwo?
But will say someone; How are raised the dead? With what then body do they come?
36 Musirusiru ggwe! Ensigo gy’osiga temeruka nga tennafa.
Fool you yourself What you sow not does come to life only unless it may die;
37 Era ensigo eyo gy’osiga eba mpeke buweke; so si ekirivaamu oba ya ŋŋaano, oba ya ngeri ndala.
And what you sow, not the body that will be you sow but a bare grain, if it would be of wheat or of some of the rest;
38 Naye Katonda agiwa omubiri nga bw’ayagala, era buli ngeri ya nsigo agiwa omubiri gwayo.
But God gives to it a body even as He has willed and to each of the seeds (*k*) [its] own body.
39 Kubanga emibiri gyonna tegiba gya ngeri emu. Waliwo omubiri ogw’abantu, waliwo ogw’ensolo, waliwo ogw’ennyonyi, era waliwo n’ogw’ebyennyanja.
Not all flesh [is] the same flesh but one indeed (flesh *k*) of men, another however flesh of beasts, another however (flesh *no*) of birds another however of fish.
40 Noolwekyo waliwo emibiri egy’omu ggulu, n’emibiri egy’omu nsi. Naye ekitiibwa ky’emibiri egy’omu ggulu kirala, era n’eky’egy’omu nsi kirala.
And bodies [there are] heavenly and bodies earthly; But one indeed [is] the of the heavenly glory, another however that of the earthly.
41 Waliwo ekitiibwa ky’enjuba, waliwo eky’omwezi, era waliwo ekitiibwa eky’emmunyeenye. Naye era n’emmunyeenye tezenkanankana mu kwaka kubanga buli munyeenye ya njawulo mu kwaka.
One [is] [the] glory of [the] sun, and another [the] glory of [the] moon, and another [the] glory of [the] stars; star for from star differs in glory.
42 Era bwe kiri mu kuzuukira. Omubiri guziikibwa nga gwa kuvunda, ne guzuukizibwa nga si gwa kuvunda.
So also [is] the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in decay, it is raised in immortality;
43 Guziikibwa nga si gwa kitiibwa, naye ne guzuukizibwa nga gujjudde ekitiibwa. Guziikibwa nga munafu, naye guzuukizibwa nga gwa maanyi.
It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;
44 Guziikibwa nga mubiri bubiri, naye guzuukizibwa nga mubiri gwa mwoyo. Kale obanga waliwo omubiri obubiri, era waliwo omubiri ogw’omwoyo,
It is sown a body natural, it is raised a body spiritual. (If *NO*) there is a body natural, there is also (body *k*) spiritual.
45 kyekyava kiwandiikibwa nti, “Adamu, omuntu eyasooka, yatondebwa ng’alina obulamu.” Kyokka Adamu ow’oluvannyuma ye Mwoyo aleeta obulamu.
So also it has been written: Became the first man Adam into a soul living; the last Adam into a spirit life-giving.
46 Naye eky’omwoyo si kye kyasooka, wabula eky’omubiri obubiri kye kyasooka, n’oluvannyuma eky’omwoyo ne kijja.
However not first [was] the spiritual but the natural, then the spiritual.
47 Omuntu eyasooka yava mu ttaka, yakolebwa mu nfuufu. Ye omuntu owookubiri yava mu ggulu.
The first man [was] from [the] earth made of dust, the second man ([is] the Lord *K*) from heaven.
48 Ng’eyakolebwa mu nfuufu bw’ali, n’abo abaakolebwa mu nfuufu bwe bali.
As the [one] made of dust, so also [are] those of the earth, and as the heavenly [one], so also those of heaven;
49 Era nga bwe tufaanana oyo eyakolebwa mu nfuufu, era bwe tutyo bwe tulifaanana oyo eyava mu ggulu.
And even as we have born the image of the earthly, (we will bear *NK(o)*) also the image of the heavenly.
50 Abooluganda, kye ŋŋamba kye kino nti omubiri guno ogw’oku nsi, ogw’ennyama n’omusaayi, teguyinza kusikira bwakabaka bwa Katonda. Emibiri gyaffe egivunda tegisobola kuba gya lubeerera.
This now I say, brothers, that flesh and blood [the] kingdom of God to inherit not (is able, *N(k)O*) nor the decay the immortality does inherit.
51 Naye leka mbabuulire ekyama: Si ffenna abalifa, naye eŋŋombe ey’enkomerero bw’erivuga ffenna tulifuusibwa
Behold a mystery to you I tell; All (indeed *k*) not we will sleep, all however we will be changed —
52 mu kaseera katono ng’okutemya kikowe. Kubanga eŋŋombe erivuga, n’abafu balizuukizibwa, nga tebakyaddayo kufa era ffenna tulifuusibwa.
in an instant in [the] twinkling of an eye at the last trumpet; [The] trumpet will sound for, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we ourselves will be changed.
53 Kubanga omubiri guno oguvunda gwa kufuuka ogutavunda, era omubiri guno ogufa gwa kufuuka ogutafa.
It behooves for perishable this to put on imperishable and mortal this to put on immortality.
54 Omubiri guno oguvunda bwe gulifuuka ogutavunda, ogufa ne gufuuka ogutafa, olwo Ekyawandiikibwa ne kiryoka kituukirira ekigamba nti, “Okufa kuwanguddwa.”
When now perishable this may have put on [the] imperishable and mortal this may have put on (*o*) immortality, then will come to pass the word which written: Has been swallowed up death in victory.
Where of you, O death, the victory Where of you, (O Hades, *N(K)O*) the sting (Hadēs g86)
56 Obuyinza obulumya buva mu kibi, n’amaanyi g’ekibi gava mu mateeka.
And the sting of death [is] sin, and the power of sin the law.
57 Kyokka Katonda yeebazibwe atuwanguza ffe ku bwa Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo.
however to God [be] thanks who is giving us the victory through the Lord of us Jesus Christ.
58 Noolwekyo, baganda bange abaagalwa, mubenga banywevu era abatasagaasagana nga mweyongeranga bulijjo okukola omulimu gwa Mukama waffe, kubanga mumanyi nti okufuba kwammwe si kwa bwereere mu Mukama waffe.
Therefore, brothers of mine beloved, steadfast do be, immovable, abounding in the work of the Lord always, knowing that the toil of you not is in vain in [the] Lord.
