1 Vakolinto 11
1 Muniyiga nene ngati chemukumuyiga Kilisitu.
Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.
2 Nikuvalumba nyenye kwa kunikumbuka na ndava ya kugakamula malagizu ganavapelili.
Now I praise you, brothers, because you remember me in everything and hold fast to the teachings that have been handed down, just as I delivered them to you.
3 Nambu nigana mmanyayi kuvya Kilisitu ndi mutu wa kila mgosi, na mgosi ndi mutu wa mdala waki, na Chapanga ndi mutu wa Kilisitu.
But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
4 Hinu ndi mgosi yoyoha mweakumuyupa Chapanga amala kukokosa ujumbi wa Chapanga kuni agubiki mutu waki, mwenuyo akuhuvevesa mutu waki ndi Kilisitu.
Every man who prays or prophesies with his head veiled disgraces his head,
5 Na mdala ngati akumuyupa Chapanga amala kukokosa ujumbi wa Chapanga changagubika mutu waki, mdala mwenuyo ndi akumvevesa mgosi waki ndi mutu waki, mdala mweikita chenicho ndi iwanangana ngati mdala mwaketili mayunju pamutu waki.
and every woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled disgraces her head, for it is one and the same as having her head shaved.
6 Mdala mwangagubika mutu waki, ndi mbanga aketayi mayunju gaki. Nambu ngati soni kwa mdala kuketa zoha amala nganila mayunju gaki, ndi mbanga agubika mutu waki.
If a woman will not veil herself, she should cut off her hair. But if it is disgraceful for a woman to cut off her hair or shave her head, she should wear a veil.
7 Mgosi iganikiwa lepi kugubika mutu waki, ndava mwene ndi luhumu na ukulu wa Chapanga, nambu mdala ndi chilolilo cha ukulu wa mgosi.
For a man ought not to have his head veiled, since he is the image and glory of God, but woman is the glory of man.
8 Mgosi awumbi lepi kuhuma kwa mdala, nambu mdala awumbiwi kuhuma kwa mgosi.
For man did not come from woman, but woman from man.
9 Mgosi awumbiwi lepi ndava ya mdala, nambu mdala awumbiwi ndava ya mgosi.
Neither was man created for the sake of woman, but woman for the sake of man.
10 Ndava yeniyo na ndava ya vamitumu va kunani kwa Chapanga. Mdala agubika mutu waki, uvya ulangisu kulangisa uhotola weuvi panani yaki.
That is why a woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.
11 Hati ago, palongolo ya BAMBU mdala chindu lepi changali mgosi, na mgosi chindu lepi changali mdala voha vihuvalilana.
Nevertheless, in the Lord neither is man independent of woman nor woman independent of man.
12 Ngati mdala cheawumbiwi kuhuma kwa mgosi, mewawa mgosi ivelekewa na mdala. Nambu vindu vyoha vihuma kwa Chapanga.
For just as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman, but all things come from God.
13 Mwavene muhukumwa, wu, chabwina mdala kumuyupa Chapanga changagubika chindu kumutu?
Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head unveiled?
14 Hati vandu chevawumbiwi yilangisa kuvya mgosi kuvya na mayunju gatali ndi soni kwaki mwene,
Does not even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair it is a disgrace to him,
15 nambu kwa mdala kuvya na mayunju gatali ndi utopesa kwaki, apewi mayunju gatali muni gamgubikayi.
but if a woman has long hair it is her glory? For her long hair is given for a covering.
16 Nambu mundu igana undindani ndava ya lijambu ili, amanyayi kuvya tete tivii lepi na mvelu wungi wa undindani, mewawa mumsambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu kawaka mivelu yingi.
But if anyone is inclined to be contentious, we have no such custom, and neither do the churches of God.
17 Peniyendelela kuvapela malagizu aga, nihotola lepi kuvalumba hati padebe, mikonganeku yinu nyenye mwihenga mambu gamahele gahakau kuliku gabwina.
Now in giving the following instructions, I do not praise you, since you come together not for the better, but for the worse.
18 Pakutumbula, niyuwini ngati pemwikonganeka pamonga ngati msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu mwipechengana. Nene nisadika padebe,
For in the first place, I hear that there are divisions among you when you come together as a church, and in some part I believe it.
19 changali mtahu yiganikiwa pavya ulekenganu pagati yinu, muni kulangisa vala veviyidakiliwa na Chapanga vamanyikayi hotohoto.
For there must be factions among you to show which of you are approved.
20 Chakaka mwikonganeka, mwihololela mwilya chakulya cha kumkumbuka lifwa la BAMBU, nambu lepi!
Now when you come together, it is not to eat the Lord's supper.
21 Muni pamwilya kila mmonga winu ilya chakulya, hati yihumila vangi vilya Changali kuvalindila vayavi ndi yihumila vangi vavi na njala, na vangi vagalili!
For when you eat, some of you eat your own supper without waiting for others. So one person is hungry while another gets drunk.
22 Wu, mwihotola lepi kulya na kunywa kunyumba yinu? Amala mukuyivevesa msambi wa vandu vevakumsadika Kilisitu va Chapanga na kuvavevesa vandu avo vangali chindu? Nivakokosela kyani? Nivalumba? Lepi! Lepi kuvala lijambu ili.
What! Do you not have houses for eating and drinking? Or do you despise the church of God and put to shame those who do not have anything? What should I say to you? Should I praise you for this? I do not praise you.
23 Muni nene napokili mawuliwu kuhuma kwa BAMBU genavalekili, kuvya kilu yila BAMBU Yesu peagotoliwi kwa makoko vaki, atolili libumunda,
For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night in which he was betrayed took bread,
24 akamsengusa Chapanga, akalimetula, akajova. “Yeniyi ndi higa yangu yeyiwusiwa ndava yinu, mkita aga kwa kunikumbuka nene.”
and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “Take and eat this bread; this is my body, which is broken for you. Do this in remembrance of me.”
25 Mewawa, pamali kulya, akatola chikombi, akajova. “Chenichi ndi chikombi cha lilaganu lamupya lelikitwa livya na makakala kwa ngasi yangu. Mkita naha kila pemwinywa, kwa kunikumbuka nene.”
In the same way, he also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.”
26 Kila lukumbi pemwilya libumunda lenili na kunywa chikombi ichi, mukokosa lifwa la BAMBU, mbaka peibwela.
For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
27 Ndava yeniyo, mundu yeyoha mweilya libumunda na kunywa chikombi cha BAMBU changali kuganikiwa, yati ivya na lijambu ndava ya ngasi ya BAMBU
So then, whoever eats this bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in a manner unworthy of the Lord will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
28 Yikumgana mundu yoyoha ajilolayi mwene hoti, kangi alyayi libumunda lenilo na anywela chikombi chenicho.
So a person should examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup.
29 Muni mundu yeyoha mweilya na kunywa changali kumanya mana ya higa ya BAMBU, akujiletela uhamula waki mwene.
For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment on himself, since he shows no regard for the body of the Lord.
30 Ndi mana vamahele pagati yinu vatamu, na vangi vafwili.
That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a considerable number have fallen asleep.
31 Ngati tijilolili tavete bwina ngati tibuniwi lepi na Chapanga.
If we would evaluate ourselves, we would not be judged.
32 Nambu patihamuliwa na BAMBU, tiwuliwa, tikotoka kuhengewa uhamula pamonga na vandu va mulima.
But when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined so that we will not be condemned with the world.
33 Hinu, valongo vangu, pamkonganeka pamonga kulya libumunda la kumkumbuka BAMBU, kila mundu amlindilayi muyaki.
So then, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.
34 Na ngati kuvi na mundu mweavi na njala, alyayi hoti kunyumba yaki. Muni kukonganeka kwinu kukoto kuleta uhamula. Nambu, kuvala mambu gangi, yati nikuvajovela penibwela.
If anyone is hungry, he should eat at home, so that when you come together it will not result in condemnation. I will set the remaining matters in order when I come.
