1 Qorontos 6
1 Isin keessaa namni kam iyyuu yoo nama biraa irraa falmii qabaate, dhimma isaa qulqulloota duratti dhiʼeeffachuu irra akkamitti warra Waaqatti hin amanin duratti murtiif dhiʼeeffachuuf ija jabaata?
How dare any of you file a lawsuit before pagan judges if you have a dispute with your neighbor! Instead you should bring this before other believers.
2 Isin akka qulqulloonni addunyaatti muran hin beektanii? Erga kan addunyaatti murtan taatanii waan xixinnootti muruu hin dandeessanii?
Don't you know that Christian believers will judge the world? If you're going to judge the world, are you not fit to judge in the most minor cases?
3 Isin akka nu ergamoota Waaqaatti murru hin beektanii? Yoos hammam caalaa waan jireenya addunyaa kanaatti haa murru ree?
Don't you know we are going to judge angels? How much more those things that relate to this life!
4 Egaa yoo falmii dhimma akkasii qabaattan maaliif namoota waldaa Kiristaanaa keessatti tuffataman duratti dhiʼeeffattu ree?
So if you have to judge things that relate to this life, how can you go to judges that are not respected by the church?
5 Anis isin qaanessuuf waan kana nan dubbadha. Namni beekaan falmii amantoota gidduu jiruuf murtii kennuu dandaʼu tokko iyyuu hin jiru jechuudhaa?
I'm trying to shame you by saying this. What? You can't find one wise person among you who can settle a dispute that you have?
6 Obboleessi tokko obboleessa kaan himachuuf jedhee mana murtii dhaqa; kunis fuula warra hin amannee duratti!
Instead one believer takes another believer to court, and places the issue before unbelievers!
7 Wal himachuun keessan amma iyyuu guutumaatti moʼatamuu keessan argisiisa. Qooda kanaa dabni isinitti hojjetamuu hin wayyuu? Gowwoomfamuu isinii hin wayyuu?
The very fact you have lawsuits against each other already is a complete disaster. Wouldn't it be better to accept the injustice? Why not let yourselves be defrauded?
8 Garuu isin mataan keessan iyyuu ni gowwoomsitu; dabas ni hojjettu; kanas obbolootuma keessanitti hojjettu.
But you would rather cause injustice and defraud even your fellow-believers in church.
9 Isin akka jalʼoonni mootummaa Waaqaa hin dhaalle hin beektanii? Hin gowwoominaa: halaleewwan yookaan warri Waaqa tolfamaa waaqeffatan yookaan ejjitoonni yookaan dhiironni sagaagaltoonni yookaan dhiironni dhiira wajjin sagaagalan,
Don't you know those who are unjust will not inherit the kingdom of God? Don't be fooled! People who are immoral, worship idols, commit adultery, sexual perverts, homosexuals,
10 yookaan hattoonni yookaan doqnoonni yookaan machooftonni yookaan warri maqaa nama balleessan yookaan saamtonni mootummaa Waaqaa hin dhaalan.
thieves, greedy, drunkards, abusers, or cheats, will not inherit the kingdom of God.
11 Gariin keessan akkas turtan. Taʼus isin maqaa Gooftaa keenya Yesuus Kiristoosii fi Hafuura Waaqa keenyaatiin dhiqamtaniirtu; qulqullooftaniirtu; qajeeltotas taasifamtaniirtu.
Some of you were once like that, but you have been made clean and holy. You have been made right in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God.
12 “Wanti hundinuu naaf eeyyamameera;” kan faayidaa qabu garuu hunda isaa miti; “Wanti hundinuu naaf eeyyamameera;” garuu wanti tokko iyyuu na hin moʼatu.
People say, “I'm free to do anything”—but not everything is appropriate! “I'm free to do anything”—but I will not let anything control me! People say,
13 “Nyaanni garaadhaaf; garaanis nyaataaf;” Waaqni garuu lachan isaanii iyyuu ni balleessa. Dhagni Gooftaa tajaajiluudhaaf malee halalummaaf miti; Gooftaanis dhagnaaf.
“Food for the stomach, and the stomach for food”—but God will destroy both of them. Also, the body is not meant to be used for immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.
14 Waaqni humna isaatiin warra duʼan keessaa Gooftaa kaaseera; nus akkasuma ni kaasa.
By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us up the same way.
15 Isin akka dhagni keessan kutaa dhagna Kiristoos taʼe hin beektanii? Yoos ani kutaa dhagna Kiristoos fuudhee kutaa dhagna sagaagaltuu godhuu ree? Gonkumaa hin taʼu!
Don't you know your bodies are parts of Christ's body? Should I take the parts of Christ's body and join them to a prostitute? Absolutely not!
16 Isin akka namni sagaagaltuu wajjin wal qunnamtii qabu tokko ishee wajjin dhagna tokko taʼu hin beektanii? “Lamaan isaanii iyyuu foon tokko ni taʼu” jedhameeraatii.
Don't you realize that anyone who has sex with a prostitute becomes “one body” with her? Remember that Scripture says, “The two will become one body.”
17 Namni Gooftaa wajjin tokko taʼe garuu Gooftaa wajjin hafuuraan tokko.
But whoever is joined to the Lord is one with him in spirit!
18 Halalummaa irraa baqadhaa. Namni cubbuu biraa hunda dhagna isaatii alatti hojjeta; namni halalummaa hojjetu garuu dhagnuma ofii isaatti cubbuu hojjeta.
Stay away from sexual immorality! All other sins that people commit are outside of the body, but sexual immorality is a sin against your own body.
19 Isin akka dhagni keessan mana qulqullummaa Hafuura Qulqulluu isin keessa jiraatu, kan Waaqa irraa argattan sanaa taʼe hin beektanii? Isin kan ofii keessanii miti;
Don't you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit that is within you, that you received from God?
20 isin gatiin bitamtan; kanaafuu dhagna keessaniin Waaqaaf ulfina kennaa.
You don't belong to yourself—a price was paid for you! So glorify God in your body!
