1 Wakorintho 5
1 Tumesikia taarifa kuwa kuna zinaa miongoni mwenu, aina ya zinaa ambayo haipo hata katikati ya watu wa Mataifa. Tuna taarifa kwamba mmoja wenu analala na mke wa baba yake.
It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even among the nations, that one has his father's wife.
2 Nanyi mwajisifu! Badala ya kuhuzunika? Yule aliyefanya hivyo anapaswa kuondolewa miongoni mwenu.
You are puffed up, and did not rather mourn, that he who had done this deed might be removed from among you.
3 Ingawa sipo pamoja nanyi kimwili lakini nipo nanyi kiroho, nimekwisha mhukumu yeye aliyefanya hivi, kama vile nilikuwepo.
For I most certainly, as being absent in body but present in spirit, have already, as though I were present, judged him who has done this thing.
4 Mnapokutanika pamoja katika jina la Bwana wetu Yesu, na roho yangu ipo pale kama kwa nguvu za Bwana wetu Yesu, nimekwisha mhukumu mtu huyu.
In the name of our Lord Jesus, you being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,
5 Nimekwisha kumkabidhi mtu huyu kwa Shetani ili kwamba mwili wake uharibiwe, ili roho yake iweze kuokolewa katika siku ya Bwana.
are to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord.
6 Majivuno yenu si kitu kizuri. Hamjui chachu kidogo huharibu donge zima?
Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little yeast leavens the whole lump?
7 Jisafisheni ninyi wenyewe chachu ya kale, ili kwamba muwe donge jipya, ili kwamba mwe mkate usiochachuliwa. Kwa kuwa, Kristo, Mwana Kondoo wetu wa pasaka amekwisha kuchinjwa.
Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed for us.
8 Kwa hiyo tusherekee karamu si kwa chachu ya kale, chachu ya tabia mbaya na uovu. Badala yake, tusherekee na mkate usiotiwa chachu wa unyenyekevu na kweli.
Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old yeast, neither with the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
9 Niliandika katika barua yangu kuwa msichangamane na wazinzi.
I wrote to you in my letter to have no company with sexual sinners;
10 Sina maana wazinzi wa dunia hii, au na wenye tamaa au wanyang'anyi au waabudu sanamu kwa kukaa mbali nao, basi ingewapasa mtoke duniani.
yet not at all meaning with the sexual sinners of this world, or with the covetous and extortioners, or with idolaters; for then you would have to leave the world.
11 Lakini sasa nawaandikia kutojichanganya na yeyote anayeitwa kaka au dada katika Kristo, lakini anaishi katika uzinzi au ambaye ni mwenye kutamani, au mnyang'anyi, au mwabudu sanamu, au mtukanaji au mlevi. Wala msile naye mtu wa namna ile.
But as it is, I wrote to you not to associate with anyone who is called a brother who is a sexual sinner, or covetous, or an idolater, or a slanderer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner. Do not even eat with such a person.
12 Kwa hiyo nitajihusishaje kuwahukumu walio nje ya Kanisa? Badala yake, ninyi hamkuwahukumu walio ndani ya kanisa?
For what have I to do with also judging those who are outside? Do you not judge those who are within?
13 Lakini Mungu anawahukumu walio nje. “Mwondoeni mtu mwovu miongoni mwenu”
But those who are outside, God judges. "Put away the wicked man from among yourselves."
