1 Corinthians 8
1 Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.
Lino vwimila vwa kyakulia fino fihumisivue litekolo kufihwani: tukagwile kuuti “Usue tweeni tulinuvumang'anyi.” Uvumang'anyi vuleta ulughinio, looli ulughano lujenga.
2 But if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he doesn’t yet know as he ought to know.
Nave umuunhu ghweni isagha kuuti akagwile limongo, umuunhu ujua nambe nakagwile heene jilondua akagule.
3 But anyone who loves God is known by him.
Looli nave umuunhu amughanile u Nguluve, umuunhubujuo ikagulika nu mwene.
4 Therefore concerning the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is anything in the world, and that there is no other God but one.
Kange vwimila vwa fakulia fino fihumisivue fihumisivue litekelo ku fihweni: tukagwile kuuti “Ikihwani nakwekuuti kinu mu iisi iji,” ulwakuva nakwale u Nguluve ila jumo mwene.”
5 For though there are things that are called “gods”, whether in the heavens or on earth—as there are many “gods” and many “lords”—
Ulwakuva kwevale vinga vano vitambulua manguluve ndavuve vulanga, nambe iisi, ndavule ghalivuo “Amanguluve na vatua vinga.”
6 yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we live through him.
“Palikimo nakuva kulyusue kwale u Nguluve jumo mwene juno ghwa Nhaata, ifinu fyoni fihumile kwa mwene, tatusue tukale kwa mwene, u Mutwa jumo u Yesu Kilisite, juno vwimila umwene ifinu fyoni kwefile, kwa mwene jujuo na jusue kwetule.”
7 However, that knowledge isn’t in all men. But some, with consciousness of an idol until now, eat as of a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
Nambe vulevule, uvukagusi uvuo namwevule n'kate mwa muunhu ghweni. pauluo, avange valyahasing'ine kukufunya ku fihwani pakali apuo, nambe lino vali ifakulia ifi hwene kuuti kinu kino kihumisivue kuva litekelo ku fihwani. Inyivonelo save sisoveleng'ine ulwakuva mbotembote.
8 But food will not commend us to God. For neither, if we don’t eat are we the worse, nor if we eat are we the better.
Looli ikyakulia nakyekino kilatuhufia usue kwa Nguluve. Usue natulivavivi kyoongo nave natulile ikyakulia, nave uvulugu kyoongo nave tulile.
9 But be careful that by no means does this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to the weak.
Looli mulolelaghe ulwakuuti uvwavuke vwiinu vuleke kuva vwe vwambusio ulwa kun'kuvasia um'botebote mulwitiko.
10 For if a man sees you who have knowledge sitting in an idol’s temple, won’t his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?
Leka usaghaghe kuuti umuunhu akuvwene, uve ghwejuno ulinuvukagusi, ghulia ikyakulia mu nyumba ija kufunyila ija fihwani. Inyivonelo sake umuunhu ujuo kwande sikunua pikagulika nambe jumwene jujuo valisaghe ifiinu fino vasanguile kuva litekelo kufihwani?
11 And through your knowledge, he who is weak perishes, the brother for whose sake Christ died.
Pa uluo vwimila vwa vukagusi vwako uvwa lweli ulwa muvuhumo vwa fihwani, n'kulu nambe umwanilumbu juno m'botem'bote, juno kange n'kilisite alyafwile vwimila umwene, itipulua.
12 Thus, sinning against the brothers, and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ.
Pauluo, pano ghuvomba inyivi palikimo avakuulu nava lumbu vakomukusilemasia inyivonelo sivanave sino mbotembote, muvomba inyivi kwa Kilisite.
13 Therefore, if food causes my brother to stumble, I will eat no meat forever more, that I don’t cause my brother to stumble. (aiōn g165)
Pauluo, nave ikyakulia kikwambusia pikunkuvasia un'kulu nambe umwanilumbu, nanilalia inyama kange, ulwakuuti nimwambusie unkulu nambe umwanilumbu kughua. (aiōn g165)
