Bakorintha I 5
1 Mongwe le mongwe o bua kaga selo se se maswe se se diragetseng koo mo gare ga lona, sengwe se se bosula thata se le e leng bone baheitane ba sa se direng! Lo na le motho mongwe mo phuthegong ya lona yo o tshelang mo sebeng le mosadi wa ga rraagwe.
Above all else, it is being said that there is fornication among you, even fornication of a such kind that is not among the Gentiles, so that someone would have the wife of his father.
2 Mme a lo santse lo ipelafatsa, lo re lo ba “Semowa?” Ke eng fa lo sa lele ka khutsafalo le ditlhong, le gore lo bone gore motho yo o ntshiwa mo botokololong jwa lona?
And yet you are inflated, and you have not instead been grieved, so that he who has done this thing would be taken away from your midst.
3 Le fa ke se na le lona koo, ke ntse ke akanya thata kaga se mme mo leineng la Morena Jesu Keresete ke setse ke ntse ke akanya thata kaga se ke ka se dirang, fela jaaka ekete ke koo. Lo tshwanetse go phutha phuthego, mme nonofo ya Morena Jesu e tlaa nna le lona fa lo kopana, mme le nna ke tlaa bo ke le teng mo moweng,
Certainly, though absent in body, I am present in spirit. Thus, I have already judged, as if I were present, him who has done this.
In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, you have been gathered together with my spirit, in the power of our Lord Jesus,
5 mme lo kgaole motho yo mo bolokong jwa phuthego, lo mo tsenye mo diatleng tsa ga Satane, go mo otlhaya, mo tsholofelong ya gore mowa wa gagwe o tle o bolokwe fa Morena Jesu Keresete a bowa.
to hand over such a one as this to Satan, for the destruction of the flesh, so that the spirit may be saved in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
6 Mo kana go hakgamatsa jang gore lo bo lo ipelafatsa kaga boitshekiso jwa lona, mme le fa go ntse jalo lo letla selo sa go nna jaana go tswelela pele. A ga lo itse gore fa motho a le mongwe fela a letlelelwa go tswelela mo sebeng, ka bofefo go tlaa ama batho botlhe?
It is not good for you to glory. Do you not know that a little leaven corrupts the entire mass?
7 Tlosang sefatlhi se se maswe se, motho yo o bosula yo, mo gare ga lona, gore lo nne lo le phepa. Keresete, Kwana ya Modimo re mmolaetswe.
Purge the old leaven, so that you may become the new bread, for you are unleavened. For Christ, our Passover, has now been immolated.
8 Jalo a re jeng moletlo o mo dipelong tsa rona mo go ene re gole thata mo botshelong jwa Sekeresete, re tlogele gotlhe kwa morago, botshelo jo bogologolo ka mafufa otlhe a jone le bosula. Mo boemongjwa seo, a re jeng moletlo wa senkgwe se se itshekileng sa tlotlo le bopelo-e-phepha le boammaaruri.
And so, let us feast, not with the old leaven, not with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
9 Erile fa ke lo kwaletse la ntlha ke rile lo seka lwa tlhakana le batho ba ba bosula.
As I have written to you in an epistle: “Do not associate with fornicators,”
10 Mme erile fa ke bua jalo ke ne ke sa bue kaga batho ba ba sa dumeleng ba ba tshelelang mo boakeng, kgotsa difatlha tsa batsietsi le magodu le baobamedi ba medimo ya disetwa. Gonne ga lo ka ke lwa nna mo lefatsheng leno kwa ntle ga batho ba ba ntseng jalo.
certainly not with the fornicators of this world, nor with the greedy, nor with robbers, nor with the servants of idolatry. Otherwise, you ought to depart from this world.
11 Se ke neng ke se raya ke gore ga lo a tshwanela go tsalana le mongwe yo o ipitsang Mokeresete mme e le moakafadi, kgotsa sefatlha, kgotsa motsietsi, kgotsa moobamedi wa medimo ya disetwa, kgotsa letagwa, kgotsa mokgadi. Lo se ka lwaa ja le motho yo o ntseng jalo.
But now I have written to you: do not associate with anyone who is called a brother and yet is a fornicator, or greedy, or a servant of idolatry, or a slanderer, or inebriated, or a robber. With such a one as this, do not even take food.
12 Ga se tiro ya rona go atlhola ba ba kwa ntle. Mme ke tiro ya rona tota go atlhola le go dirana thata le ba e leng ditokololo tsa phuthego, le ba ba leofang.
For what have I to do with judging those who are outside? But do not even you yourselves judge those who are inside?
13 Modimo o le osi ke moatlhodi wa ba ba ka kwa ntle mme lona ka bo lona lo tshwanetse go dirana le motho yoo gore lo mo kgaole mo phuthegong ya lona.
For those who are outside, God will judge. But send this evil person away from yourselves.
