1 Abakkolinso 5

1 Twategeezebwa nga mu mmwe mulimu obwenzi, ate obwenzi obutali na mu baamawanga, kubanga omuntu atwala muka kitaawe n’amufuula mukazi we.

It is actually reported that there is fornication among you, a kind of fornication that is not even named among the Gentiles, for a man has his father's wife.

2 Mwekuluntazizza mu kifo ky’okwewombeeka. Oyo akola ekikolwa ng’ekyo eky’okwekuluntaza, tasaanye kuggyibwamu mu mmwe?

And you are puffed up! You should have mourned instead and removed the man who did this from among you.

3 Nze newaakubadde nga siri eyo nammwe mu mubiri, naye nga bwe ndi nammwe mu mwoyo, omuntu eyakola ekyo mmaze okumusalira omusango okumusinga.

For though I am absent in body, I am present in spirit. And I have already judged the man who did this, just as though I were present.

4 Mu linnya lya Mukama waffe Yesu, mukuŋŋaane nga nange ndi nammwe mu mwoyo n’amaanyi ga Mukama waffe Yesu nga gali nammwe.

So when you are gathered together in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and I am with you in spirit, along with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

5 Omuntu ng’oyo mumuweeyo eri Setaani omubiri gwe guzikirizibwe, omwoyo gwe gulyoke gulokolebwe ku lunaku lwa Mukama waffe.

hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of his flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

6 Okwenyumiriza kwammwe si kulungi. Temumanyi ng’ekizimbulukusa ekitono kizimbulukusa ekitole kyonna?

Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump?

7 Muggyeemu ekizimbulukusa eky’edda, mulyoke mubeere ekitole ekiggya, nga temuliimu kizimbulukusa; kubanga Kristo ye ndiga eyaweebwayo ng’ekiweebwayo eky’Okuyitako ku lwaffe.

Purge out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump of dough, since you really are unleavened. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed for us.

8 Noolwekyo tulye embaga si na kizimbulukusa eky’edda, newaakubadde ekizimbulukusa eky’ettima n’ekibi, naye tugirye n’omugaati ogutaliimu kizimbulukusa nga gulimu obulongoofu n’amazima.

So then, let us celebrate the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and evil, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

9 Mbawandiikira nga mbalabula obutegattanga na benzi,

I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with fornicators.

10 so si okwewala abenzi ab’ensi eno, oba aboomululu, oba abakumpanya, oba abasinza bakatonda abalala, kubanga kyandibagwanidde mmwe okuva mu nsi.

Yet I certainly did not mean the fornicators of this world or the greedy or swindlers or idolaters, since you would then need to go out of the world.

11 Naye kaakano mbawandiikira nga mbategeeza nti mwewale omuntu yenna ayitibwa owooluganda ng’ate mwenzi, owoomululu, asinza bakatonda abalala, oba omuvumi, oba omutamiivu oba omukumpanya. Ab’engeri eyo n’okulya temulyanga nabo.

But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who is named as a brother if he is a fornicator or greedy, an idolater or a reviler, a drunkard or a swindler; do not even eat with such a man.

12 Kale nze nfaayo ki okusalira ab’ebweru omusango? Lwaki sisalira abo abali mu mmwe?

For what have I to do with judging those who are outside the church? Do you not judge those who are inside the church?

13 Naye ab’ebweru Katonda ye abasalira. Omubi oyo ali mu mmwe mumuggyeemu.

God will judge those who are outside the church. “Therefore you must remove the evil person from among you.”
