1 Qorontos 15
1 Ammas yaa obboloota, ani waaʼee wangeela ani isinitti lallabe, kan isin fudhattanii ittiin dhaabatan sanaa isin yaadachiisuu nan barbaada.
And, brothers, I make known to you the good news that I preached to you, which also ye received, and in which ye stand,
2 Isin yoo dubbii ani isinitti lallabe sana jabeessitanii qabattan wangeeluma kanaan ni fayyitu. Yoo kanaa achii akkasumaan amantan jechuu dha.
by which also ye are saved if ye hold firm that word I preached to you, unless ye believed in vain.
3 Anis waanan fudhadhe duraan dursee dabarseen isinitti kenneeraatii; akka Katabbiiwwan Qulqulluun dubbatanitti, Kiristoos cubbuu keenyaaf jedhee duʼe;
For I delivered to you at first what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures,
4 ni awwaalames; akka Katabbiiwwan Qulqulluun dubbatanitti guyyaa sadaffaatti duʼaa kaafame.
and that he was buried, and that he arose on the third day according to the scriptures,
5 Inni duraan dursee Keefaatti, ergasiis warra Kudha Lamaanitti mulʼate.
and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.
6 Sana booddee yeroo tokkotti obboloota dhibba shanii ol taʼanitti mulʼate; isaan keessaas yoo muraasni boqotan iyyuu hedduun isaanii hamma ammaatti ni jiru.
Then he appeared to over five hundred brothers at once, of whom the greater part remain until now, but some also slept.
7 Ergasiis Yaaqoobitti, itti aansee ergamoota hundatti mulʼate;
Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles,
8 dhuma irratti immoo ana kan akka gatataatti dhalateetti lakkaaʼamutti mulʼate.
and last of all, as to the untimely birth, he also appeared to me.
9 Ani ergamoota hundaa gadi; ergamaa jedhamee waamamuun iyyuu naaf hin malu; ani waldaa kiristaanaa Waaqaa ariʼachaan tureetii.
For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
10 Garuu ani ayyaana Waaqaatiin akkuman jiru kana jira; ayyaanni isaa kan naa kennames akkasumaan hin hafne. Ani hunduma isaanii caalaa jabaadhee hojjedheera; kanas utuu ana hin taʼin ayyaana Waaqaa kan na wajjin jirutu hojjete.
But by the grace of God I am what I am. And his grace for me did not become empty, but I labored more abundantly than them all, yet not I, but the grace of God with me.
11 Egaa anas taʼu yookaan isaan, wanni nu lallabnu, wanni isin amantanis kanuma.
Therefore whether I or those men, so we proclaim, and so ye believed.
12 Kiristoos warra duʼan keessaa akka kaafame erga lallabamee, isin keessaa namoonni tokko tokko akkamitti duʼaa kaʼuun warra duʼanii hin jiru jechuu dandaʼu ree?
Now if Christ is proclaimed that he has risen from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13 Erga duʼaa kaʼuun warra duʼanii hin jirre, Kiristoos iyyuu duʼaa hin kaafamne jechuudha kaa!
But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither has Christ risen.
14 Erga Kiristoos duʼaa hin kaafamin immoo lallabni keenya faayidaa hin qabu; amantiin keessanis faayidaa hin qabu.
And if Christ has not risen, then our preaching is empty, and your faith is also empty.
15 Kana malees Waaqni Kiristoosin duʼaa kaaseera jennee waaʼee Waaqaa waan dhugaa baaneef, nu waaʼee Waaqaa dhuga baatota sobaa taanee argamneerra. Garuu erga warri duʼan hin kaafamin inni Kiristoosin hin kaafne jechuu dha.
And also we are found false witnesses of God, because we witnessed according to God that he raised up the Christ, whom he did not raise up, if therefore the dead are really not raised.
16 Yoo warri duʼan kaafamuu baatan, Kiristoosis duʼaa hin kaafamneetii.
For if the dead are not raised, neither has Christ been raised.
17 Erga Kiristoos duʼaa hin kaafamin amantiin keessan faayidaa hin qabu; isinis ammuma iyyuu cubbuu keessa jirtu.
And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is vain. Ye are still in your sins.
18 Yoos warri utuu Kiristoositti jiranuu boqotan baduu isaanii ti.
Then also those who slept in Christ have perished.
19 Yoo jireenya ammaa qofaaf Kiristoosin abdanne nu warra namni hundi naʼuuf taʼuu keenya.
If we are men who have hoped in Christ in this life only, we are of all men more miserable.
20 Amma garuu Kiristoos warra boqotaniif hangafa taʼee dhugumaan warra duʼan keessaa kaafameera.
But now Christ has been raised from the dead. He became the first fruit of those who are asleep.
21 Akkuma duuti karaa nama tokkootiin dhufe, akkasuma immoo duʼaa kaʼuun warra duʼanii karaa nama tokkootiin dhufeetii.
For since death is because of a man, the resurrection of the dead is also because of a man.
22 Akkuma hundinuu Addaamiin duʼan, hundinuu Kiristoosiin jiraatoo ni taasifamuutii.
For as by Adam all die, so also by Christ all will be made alive.
23 Kun hundinuus yeroo dabaree isaatti ni taʼa; Kiristoos hangafticha, ergasii immoo yeroo inni deebiʼee dhufutti warra kan Kiristoos taʼan.
But each in his own order. Christ the first fruit, then those of Christ at his coming.
24 Innis erga bulchiinsa hunda, taayitaa fi humna hunda balleessee booddee, yeroo Waaqa Abbaatti mootummaa dabarsee kennutti dhumni ni taʼa.
Afterwards the end, when he delivers up the kingdom to the God and Father, when he will abolish all rule, and all authority and power.
25 Inni hamma diinota isaa hunda miilla isaa jala galfatutti moʼuu qabaatii.
For he must reign until he will put all his enemies under his feet.
26 Diinni dhumaa kan barbadeeffamuu qabu duʼa.
The last enemy abolished is death.
27 Inni, “Waan hunda miilla isaa jala galcheeraatii.” Garuu “Wanni hundi” isa jala galfameera jechuun akka isa waan hunda isa jala galche sana hin dabalatin beekamaa dha.
For he subordinated all things under his feet. But when he says that all things have been subordinated, it is clear that he who subordinated all things under him, is excepted.
28 Erga waan kana godhee booddee akka Waaqni waan hundumaan hundumaa taʼuuf Ilmi mataan isaa iyyuu isa waan hundumaa miilla isaa jala galche sanaaf ni bula.
And when all things are made subordinate to him, then the Son himself will also be made subordinate to him who subordinated all things to him, so that God may be all in all.
29 Yoo duʼaa kaʼuun jiraachuu baate namoonni warra duʼaniif jedhanii cuuphaman maal gochuu isaanii ti? Warri duʼanis yoo duʼaa hin kaafamin namoonni maaliif qooda isaanii cuuphamu ree?
Otherwise what will they do who are immersed for the dead? If the dead do not rise at all, why then are they immersed for the dead?
30 Nu maaliif saʼaatii hunda balaaf of saaxilla?
And we, why are we in peril every hour?
31 Yaa obboloota, ani guyyuma guyyaan akkan duʼu of jajuu karaa Gooftaa keenya Kiristoos Yesuusiin isin irratti qabuun nan kakadha.
By the pride that belongs to you, that I keep in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
32 Ani akka namaatti Efesoonitti bineensa wajjin wal loluun koo, erga warri duʼan hin kaafamnee, maal na fayyada? “Kottaa ni nyaannaa; ni dhugnas; bor ni duunaatii.”
If in respect to men I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what is the benefit to me if the dead are not raised? Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.
33 Hin gowwoomfaminaa: “Hiriyaan hamaan amala gaarii balleessa.”
Be not led astray. Evil associations corrupt good habits.
34 Gara qalbii keessan isa qajeelaatti deebiʼaa; cubbuu hojjechuus dhiisaa; namoonni Waaqa hin beekne tokko tokko isin gidduu jiruutii. Anis isin qaanessuufin waan kana dubbadha.
Sober up rightly, and do not sin, for some have ignorance of God. I speak shame about you.
35 Garuu namni tokko, “Warri duʼan akkamitti kaafamu? Dhagna akkamiitiin dhufu?” jedhee ni gaafata taʼa.
But some man will say, How are the dead raised, and with what kind of body do they come?
36 Yaa gowwaa! Wanni ati facaaftu yoo duʼe malee jireenya hin argatu.
Thou foolish man, what thou sow is not made alive unless it dies.
37 Wanni ati facaaftu sanyiidhuma, jechuunis sanyii qamadii yookaan sanyii midhaan biraati malee dhagna midhaan biqilee guddachuuf jiru sanaa miti.
And what thou sow, thou do not sow the body that it will become, but a bare grain, if it may happen of wheat, or of some other kind.
38 Waaqni garuu akkuma fedhetti dhagna isaaf kenna; tokkoo tokkoo gosa sanyiitiifis dhagna mataa isaa kenna.
But God gives it a body as he wills, and to each of the seeds its own body.
39 Foon hundinuu tokko miti; namni foon gosa tokkoo qaba; horiin foon gosa biraa, simbirroon foon gosa biraa, qurxummiinis foon gosa biraa qabu.
All flesh is not the same flesh, but one of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another of fishes, and another of birds,
40 Akkasuma immoo dhagnawwan samii irraa ni jiru; dhagnawwan lafa irraas ni jiru; garuu ulfinni dhagnawwan samii irraa gosa tokko; ulfinni dhagnawwan lafa irraa immoo gosa biraa ti.
and heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies (but the glory of the heavenly is different, and the glory of the earthly is different),
41 Aduun ulfina gosa tokkoo qabdi; jiʼis ulfina gosa biraa, urjiiwwanis ulfina gosa biraa qabu; urjiin tokko ulfinaan urjii biraatiin addaatii.
another glory is of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars, for star differs from star in glory.
42 Duʼaa kaʼuun warra duʼaniis akkasuma. Dhagni facaafamu kan baduu dha; kan hin badne taʼee immoo kaafama.
So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in the perishable, it is raised in imperishability.
43 Inni salphinaan facaafama; ulfinaan kaafama; dadhabbiin facaafama; humnaan kaafama;
It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power.
44 dhagna fooniitu facaafama; dhagna hafuuraatu kaafama. Erga dhagni foonii jiraate, dhagni hafuuraas ni jira.
It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 Kanaaf, “Addaam namichi jalqabaa lubbuu jiraataa taʼe” jedhamee barreeffameera; Addaam inni dhumaa immoo hafuura jireenya kennu taʼe.
And so it is written, The first man Adam developed into a living soul. The last Adam a life giving spirit.
46 Inni jalqabatti dhufe garuu isa hafuuraa utuu hin taʼin isa foonii ti; inni hafuuraa immoo ergasii dhufe.
Nevertheless the spiritual is not first, but the natural, then the spiritual.
47 Namichi duraa lafa irraa dhufe; inni kan lafaa ti; namichi lammaffaan immoo samii irraa dhufe.
The first man was of the earth, earthly. The second man is the Lord from heaven.
48 Warri kan lafaa taʼan akkuma namicha lafa irraa sanaa ti; warri kan samii taʼan immoo akkuma namicha samii irraa dhufe sanaa ti.
As is the earthly, such also are the earthly. And as is the heavenly, such also are the heavenly.
49 Nu akkuma bifa namicha lafaa sanaa uffanne, akkasuma immoo bifa namicha samii sanaa ni uffanna.
And just as we have worn the form of the earthly, we will also wear the form of the heavenly.
50 Yaa obboloota, akka foonii fi dhiigni mootummaa Waaqaa dhaaluu hin dandeenye yookaan akka inni badu isa hin badne dhaaluu hin dandeenye ani isinitti nan hima.
Now this I affirm, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit imperishability.
51 Kunoo, ani icciitii tokko isinittin hima: Hundi keenya hin duunu; nu hundi garuu ni geeddaramna;
Behold, I tell you a mystery. We will actually not all sleep, but we will all be transformed,
52 kunis yeroo malakanni dhumaa afuufamu yeruma sanatti hamma liphsuu ijaatti raawwatama. Malakanni ni afuufamaatii; warri duʼanis kanneen hin badne taʼanii ni kaafamu; nus ni geeddaramna.
in an instant, in the blink of an eye, at the last trumpet. For it will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be transformed.
53 Inni badu kun isa hin badne, inni duʼu kun immoo isa hin duune uffachuu qabaatii.
For this perishable must put on imperishability, and this mortal put on immortality.
54 Yeroo inni badu isa hin badne uffatee, inni duʼu immoo isa hin duune uffatutti dubbiin akkana jedhamee barreeffame sun ni raawwatama; “Duuti moʼichaan liqimfameera.” Akkasumas,
But when this perishable will have put on imperishability, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then will come to pass the saying that is written, Death was swallowed up in victory.
O death, where is thy sting? O Hades, where is thy victory? (Hadēs g86)
56 Ilkeen duʼaa cubbuu dha; humni cubbuu immoo seera.
The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
57 Waaqa karaa Gooftaa keenya Yesuus Kiristoosiin moʼicha nuu kennuuf garuu galanni haa taʼu!
But thanks is to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Kanaafuu yaa obboloota koo jaallatamoo, jabaadhaa dhaabadhaa. Wanni tokko isin hin sochoosin; akka dadhabbiin keessan Gooftaa biratti faayidaa malee hin hafne waan beektaniif yeroo hunda hojii Gooftaatiif guutummaatti of kennaa.
Therefore, my beloved brothers, become ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not empty in the Lord.
