1 Corinthians 3
1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in the Messiah.
Ndipo abale sindikanakuyankhulani ngati auzimu koma adziko lapansi, makanda chabe mwa Khristu.
2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
Ndinakupatsani mkaka osati chakudya cholimba pakuti munali musanakonzeke kuchilandira. Zoonadi, simunakonzekebe.
3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
Mukanali adziko lapansi. Pakuti pakati panu pali kaduka ndi kukangana, kodi si inu a dziko lapansi? Kodi simukuchita ngati anthu wamba?
4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?
Pamene wina anena kuti, “Ine ndimatsatira Paulo,” ndipo wina akuti, “Ine ndimatsatira Apolo,” Kodi si inu akunja?
5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as YHWH gave to every man?
Ndiponso kodi Apolo ndi ndani? Nanga Paulo ndi ndani? Otumikira chabe, omwe kudzera mwa iwo inu munakhulupirira monga Ambuye anawagawira aliyense ntchito yake.
6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but YHWH gave the increase.
Ine ndinadzala mbewu, Apolo anayithirira, koma Mulungu ndiye anayikulitsa.
7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but YHWH that giveth the increase.
Choncho kuphatikiza iye wodzala ndi iye wothirira, onse sali kanthu, koma Mulungu yekha amene amakulitsa zinthu.
8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.
Munthu wodzala ndi munthu wothirira ali ndi cholinga chimodzi, ndipo aliyense adzapatsidwa mphotho molingana ndi ntchito yake.
9 For we are labourers together with YHWH: ye are YHWH 's husbandry, ye are YHWH 's building.
Pakuti ife ndife antchito anzake a Mulungu; inu ndinu munda wa Mulungu, Nyumba ya Mulungu.
10 According to the favour of YHWH which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
Mwachisomo chimene Mulungu wandipatsa, ine ndinayika maziko monga mmisiri waluntha, ndipo ena akumangapo. Koma aliyense ayenera kuchenjera mmene akumangira.
11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Yahushua the Messiah.
Pakuti wina sangayikenso maziko ena oposera amene anakhazikitsidwa kale, amene ndi Yesu Khristu.
12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;
Ngati munthu aliyense amanga pa maziko awa pogwiritsa ntchito golide, siliva, miyala yamtengowapatali, milimo yamitengo, tsekera kapena udzu,
13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.
ntchito yake idzaonekera pamene Tsiku la chiweruzo lidzazionetsa poyera. Tsikulo lidzafika ndi moto, ndipo motowo ndi umene udzayesa ntchito ya munthu aliyense.
14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
Ngati zimene zamangidwazo sizidzagwa, adzalandira mphotho yake.
15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
Ndipo ngati zidzanyeke ndi moto, sadzalandira mphotho koma iye mwini adzapulumukabe, koma monga ngati munthu amene wapulumuka mʼmoto.
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of YHWH, and that the Spirit of YHWH dwelleth in you?
Kodi inu simukudziwa kuti ndinu Nyumba ya Mulungu ndipo kuti Mzimu wa Mulungu amakhala mwa inu?
17 If any man defile the temple of YHWH, him shall YHWH destroy; for the temple of YHWH is holy, which temple ye are.
Ngati wina aliyense awononga Nyumba ya Mulunguyo, Mulungu nayenso adzamuwononga ameneyo; popeza Nyumba ya Mulungu ndi yopatulika ndipo Nyumbayo ndi inu amene.
18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. (aiōn g165)
Choncho musadzinyenge. Ngati wina wa inu akuganiza kuti ndi wanzeru pa mulingo wa mʼbado uno, ayenera kukhala “wopusa” kuti athe kukhala wanzeru. (aiōn g165)
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with YHWH. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
Pakuti nzeru ya dziko lapansi ndi yopusa pamaso pa Mulungu. Monga kwalembedwera kuti, “Iye amakola anthu ochenjera mu msampha wa kuchenjera kwawo,”
20 And again, YHWH knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
ndiponso, “Ambuye amadziwa kuti maganizo a wanzeru ndi opandapake.”
21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;
Choncho, wina asanyadire anthu chabe! Zonse ndi zanu,
22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Kepha, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;
kaya Paulo kapena Apolo kapena Kefa kapena dziko lapansi, kapena moyo, kapena imfa, kapena tsopano, kapena mʼtsogolo, zonse ndi zanu,
23 And ye are the Messiah's; and the Messiah is YHWH 's.
ndipo inu ndinu a Khristu, ndipo Khristu ndi wa Mulungu.
