1 Abhakorintho 15
1 Eshi embizusya bha kolo na mwailombo juu yizu lyana bhalombeleye amba mwaliposheye na hwemelele nalyo.
Now I declare to you, brothers, the Good News which I preached to you, which also you received, in which you also stand,
2 Katika izu eli mwaushe nkashele mubhalikhate imara izu lyanabhalombeleye amwe afanaje mwaheteshe wene.
by which also you are saved, if you hold firmly the word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.
3 Nkashele pawandilo shanaposheye humuhimu naletile hwilimwe: neshe shehweli aje arengane ne nsimbo, Kristi afwiye kwajili yembibhi zwetu,
For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
4 alengane nensimbo asyelelwe naje azwoshele isiku elyatatu.
that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,
5 Naje abhonesha bhwa Kefa, antele hwabhala kumi na bhabhele.
and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.
6 Antele abhoneshe hwa wakati umo abhoneshe hwa kolo na hwayiombo zaidi ya bhantu mia zisanu. Abhinji bado bhali womi, lelo bhamo bhagonile utulo.
After that he appeared to over five hundred brothers at once, most of whom remain until now, but some have also fallen asleep.
7 Antele abhoneshe hwa Yakobo, antele abhonesha hwa tumwa bhonti.
After that he appeared to James, then to all the apostles,
8 Mwisho wa gonti, abhoneshe hwiline neshe shila hwa mwana yapepwe husiku zwasezilisawa.
and last of all, as to the child born at the wrong time, he appeared to me also.
9 Afwanaje ane endi dodo hwa mitume. Sehwanziwa akwiziwe mtume, eshabhanza esha Ngolobhe
For I am the least of the apostles, who is not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
10 Lelo hu neema eya Ngolobhe endi neshe shehali na neema yakwe hwaline seyali yewene. Badala yakwe nabhombile ebidii ashile wonti. Lelo senaline ne bali neema eya Ngolobhe yeli mhati yane.
But by the grace of God I am what I am. His grace which was bestowed on me was not futile, but I worked more than all of them; yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
11 Eshi nkashile nene au bhebho ulombelela esho taminile esho.
Whether then was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed.
12 Eshe nkashele Kristi alombele we aje asyoshele hwa bhafwe, ebhe hwele mubhabhobho muyigo nahumo azwoshe bhabhafwiye?
Now if Christ is preached, that he has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13 Lelo nkashele nahumo azwoshe abhafwe basi hata Kristi sagazweshele.
But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither has Christ been raised.
14 Na nkashile Kristi sagazwoshele esho alombelele hwetu hubhe hwewene imani yetu abhe yewene.
If Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain, and your faith also is in vain.
15 Na tipatihene aje bhashahidi bhwilenka ahusu Ungolobhe kwa sababu tishuhudie Ungolobhe sha hwisalo aje azwozwe Kristi wakati sagazwozwezwe.
Yes, we are found false witnesses of God, because we testified about God that he raised up Christ, whom he did not raise up, if it is so that the dead are not raised.
16 Nkashile abhafwe sebhazwoha, U Yesu wape sagazwoshele.
For if the dead are not raised, neither has Christ been raised.
17 Nkashile Kristi sagazwoshele ahwamini hwetu ni bure na msele mlimbibhi zwenyu.
If Christ has not been raised, your faith is vain; you are still in your sins.
18 Esho hata bhala bhabhafwiye katika Kristi bhape bhatejele.
Then they also who are fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
19 Nkashele humaisha ega gene yaje tilinoujasili hwa wakati wa wayenza mhati mwa Kristi abhantu wonti, atee tibhalongwe zaidi ya bhantu wonti.
If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all people most to be pitied.
20 Lelo eshi Kristi azwoshele afume hwabhafwiye, madodo agahwande gabhala bhabhafwiye.
But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who are asleep.
21 Afwanaje efwa ehenzele ashilile umuntu, antele ashilile muntu azwosyewe hwa bhabhafwiye.
For since death came by man, the resurrection of the dead also came by man.
22 Afwatanaje nkashele katika u Adamu bhantu bhonti bhafwa, esho nantele katika Kristi bhayibhombwa womi wakati ubhenze hwakwe.
For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
23 Lelo kila muntu katika shapajile hwakwe kristi madondo aga hwande antele bhala bhabhli Kristi bhayibhomba bhomi wakati uwahwenza hwakwe.
But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, then those who are Christ's, at his coming.
24 Ndipo waibha umalilo, pala uKristi nayibha akabidhi umwene uwa Ngolobhe uBaba. Ene pala nayibha akomesya oungozi wonti nemamlaka gonti ne nguvu zwonti.
Then the end comes, when he will deliver up the Kingdom to God, even the Father; when he will have abolished all rule and all authority and power.
25 Afwatanaje lazima atawale mpaka nayibhabheha abhibhibha kwe pansi eye magagakwe.
For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.
26 Ubhibhi uamalishile uwnankayiziwe efwa.
The last enemy that will be abolished is death.
27 Afwanaje “abheshele kila hantu pansi pamanamagakwe.” Lelo neyanga abheshele kila hantu ni wazi aje ene sehusizwa bhala bhabhabhehwelwe kila muntu pansi yakwe yoyo.
For, "He put all things under his feet." But when he says "all things" are put under, it is evident that the one who put all things under is the exception.
28 Wakati evintu vyonti vibhehwelwe pansi yakwe, antele Umwana wakwe yoyo ayibhelwa pansi ya mwahele ambaye abheshele evintu vyonti pansi yakwe. Ene ebhoneshe ili kwamba Ungolobhe uBaba abhe gonti katika vyonti.
When all things have been subjected to him, then the Son will also himself be subjected to him who subjected all things to him, that God may be all in all.
29 Au nantele bhabhombe yenu bhala bhabhahozwe kwajili bhabhafweye? Nkashile abhafwa sebhazwoha tee, yenu antele bhahozi wa kwajili yabho?
Or else what will they do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them?
30 Naye nu tilimhatari kila sala?
Why do we also stand in jeopardy every hour?
31 Kolo na Yilombo bhane ashilile ahwisifu hwane katika amwe ambayo endinayo o katika Kristi Yesu Gosi wetu etangazwa eshe efwa kila lisiku.
I affirm, brothers, by the boasting in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
32 Esaidila yenu katika enyelezwo ezwe bhanadamu nkashele nakhomene wanyama akhali ohwo hwa Efeso, nkashile bhabhafwiye? “Sebhazwoha leha basi tilyaje na mwele, afwanaje sandabho taifwa.”
If I fought with animals at Ephesus for human purposes, what does it profit me? If the dead are not raised, then "let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die."
33 Mganje akhopelwe sololile amabhibhi gunankanya etabia enyinza.
Do not be deceived. "Bad company corrupts good morals."
34 “Mubhanje nekiasi! mkhalaje katika lyoli mgaje ahwendele abhombo embibhi. Afwanaje bhamobhamo kati yenyu sebhanowelewa uwa Ngolobhe eyanga eshi kwa esoni zwenyu.
Become sober-minded, and do not sin, for some are ignorant about God. I say this to your shame.
35 Lelo umuntu uhwenje abhayanje, Hwele abhafwe bhazwoha? Wape bhayenza neshe hwelebhwele nobele?”
But someone will say, "How are the dead raised?" and, "With what kind of body do they come?"
36 Awe ulilema tee! shila shahatotile seshiwezizwe ahwande amele isipokua shifwiye.
You foolish one, that which you yourself sow is not made alive unless it dies.
37 Na shila shotota se bele ambao gwaibha bali mbeyu yechi puye ahwezizwe abhengano au hantu ahamwao.
That which you sow, you do not sow the body that will be, but a bare grain, maybe of wheat, or of some other kind.
38 Lelo Ungolobhe ayipela ubele shasongwelwe umwahale na katika kila mbeyu bele ngwakwe mwenyewe.
But God gives it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.
39 Amabele gonti segelengene isipokuwa gahweli amabele gwa bhantu ubele gumo gwe makoko na ubele gumo wenyonyi gumo kwe samaki.
All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of humans, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.
40 Antele gahweli amabele amwanya na mabele agapansi. Lelo uhwinza wakwe ubele ugwamwanya ni halimo nowa pansi hwenje.
There are also celestial bodies, and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial differs from that of the terrestrial.
41 Huli uwinza umo wisaya na uwinza umo wemwezi, na uwinza umo wentondwe afwatanaje entondwe emo elegene nento ndwe uwinza.
There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.
42 Esho shashihweli nante azwozwewe bhabhafwiye shitotwa shinanjiha shashimela seshinanjiha.
So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption.
43 Shitolilwe katika amatumizi agekawada shimezewa katika uwinza shitotilwa katika uswogusu shimezewa katika enguvu.
It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power.
44 Shitotilwe katika ubele wa silishimezwa katika ubele ushiroho nkashile kuguhweli ubele ugwe asili gwape ugweshiro guhweli.
It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body and there is also a spiritual body.
45 Esho antele esimbwilwe muntu uwa hwanda yuadamu abhombwelwe roho yekhala.” u Adamu uwamalisholo abhombeshe roho yefumya owomi.
So also it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living soul." The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
46 Lelo uwe shiroho sagahenzele kwanza bali uwe asili napande uweshiroho.
However that which is spiritual is not first, but that which is natural, then that which is spiritual.
47 Umuntu uwa hwande wa pansi alengenyezewe humankondi. Umuntu uwabhele afumile umwanya.
The first man is of the earth, made of dust. The second man is from heaven.
48 Neshe ula yalenganyiziwe humana ondi shesho antele bhala bhabhale ngenywe humankondi. Nkashile ula umuntu umbinguni shahweli nantele bhala abhamwanya.
As is the one made of dust, such are those who are also made of dust; and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
49 Kama ambavyo tumebeba mfano wa mtu wa mavumbi, tutabeba pia mfano wa mtu wa mbinguni.
As we have borne the image of those made of dust, let us also bear the image of the heavenly.
50 Eshe embabhola kolo na yilombo bhane aje ubele nedanda seviwezizwa aghale umwene uwa Ngolobhe, hata uwanankaye uwaghale wasiunajiha.
Now I say this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption.
51 Enye! Embabhola amwe esiri eyelyoli: Hetaifwa ntenti bali tenti bhonti bhaigalunyiwa.
Look, I tell you a mystery. We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed,
52 Taigalunyizwa katika uwa sizue na damlehwiliso katika endundwe eyahumalisho, afwatanale endundwe zwailila na bhabhafwiye bhaizwoha nehali eyesitenachishe.
in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed.
53 Maana uu wananjishe lazima ukwate waseunanjiha nogu wa fwa lazima ukwate wasegwa fwe.
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 Lelo uwakati owo wa nachishe wakwatiziwa sintenachishe huu uwafwe nkaukwate usintefwe, ndipo gwayenza enjango ambao usibwilwe, “Efwa emililwe katika ashindwe.”
But when this corruptible will have put on incorruption, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: "Death is swallowed up in victory."
"Death, where is your victory? Death, where is your sting?" (Hadēs g86)
56 Ulyoyo uwefwa ni ubhibhi na enguvu ye ubhibhi ni sheria.
The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
57 Lelo ehusalifwa Ungolobhe, atipela ate amene ashilile uGosi wetu uYesu Kristi!
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Eshi bhasungwena bhakolo na mwailombo bhanji imara na mgaje ayinje. Antele yibhombi embombo eya Gosi, kwa sababu mumenye aje embombo yenyu katika Gosi sio wene.
Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord's work, because you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
