1 Ukorintiyawa 15
1 Nene nlizin minu, nuana nilime nan nishono, ubelen lirun ntucue na ndin belu minu, ulenge na ina seru inani yisin ku.
And so I make known to you, brothers, the Gospel that I preached to you, which you also received, and on which you stand.
2 Na nya nnare ina se utucu, asa imino ligbulan nlire nin likara na ndin belu minu, andi na iyina mun ba iba so hem.
By the Gospel, too, you are being saved, if you hold to the understanding that I preached to you, lest you believe in vain.
3 Bara meng nani minu nafo ucizunu nliru ulenge na meng wang na seru: Kristi na ku bara. alapi bitere nafo ubellun nliru Kutellẹ.
For I handed on to you, first of all, what I also received: that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures;
4 Iwa kasughe, amini iwa fiyaghe kisseke liri lin tat nafo ubellun nliru Kutellẹ.
and that he was buried; and that he rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures;
5 Awa durso litime kitin Kefas, nin kiti mine inun likure nin naba.
and that he was seen by Cephas, and after that by the eleven.
6 Kimal nani tutung awa durso litime kiti nuana nilime nin nshono na iwa katin akalt ataun nan nya kubi kurume, gbardan namon mine dunin lai udak kitimone, among mine namalu udu nmoro.
Next he was seen by more than five hundred brothers at one time, many of whom remain, even to the present time, although some have fallen asleep.
7 Tutung awa duro litime kitin Yakub, akuru aduro litime. kiti nanan kadura me vat.
Next, he was seen by James, then by all the Apostles.
8 Umalzinu vat, awa duro litime kitining, nafo gono kanga na ina marughe uyishi.
And last of all, he was seen also by me, as if I were someone born at the wrong time.
9 Mere kabene nan nya nanan kadura me, na nbati iyicilai unan kadura me ba, bara meng kilari Kutellẹ wa neo.
For I am the least of the Apostles. I am not worthy to be called an Apostle, because I persecuted the Church of God.
10 Nani ubolu Kutellẹ uni nta nmini nso ule na ndi, a ubolu me nme na una so hem ba. Nan nya nani, Nna katiza nani nin su katwa vat. Vat nani na mere wadi ba, ubolu Kutellẹri na udi ninmi.
But, by the grace of God, I am what I am. And his grace in me has not been empty, since I have labored more abundantly than all of them. Yet it is not I, but the grace of God within me.
11 Bara nani sa meng sa inung, nanere tidin belu ulirun ntucue, nanere anung nyina mun.
For whether it is I or they: so we preach, and so you have believed.
12 Nengene andi idin belu Kristi nafita nan nya nanan kul, nyizari among mine din belu au na ufitu nanan kul duku ba?
Now if Christ is preached, that he rose again from the dead, how is it that some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13 Andi na ufitu nanan kul duku, na ame Kristi wang ina fiyaghe ba.
For if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not risen.
14 Andi na ina fiya Kristi kuba, to uwazi bite nso hem, a uyinu sa uyenu mine tutung nso hem.
And if Christ has not risen, then our preaching is useless, and your faith is also useless.
15 Uma so tiso anan nba kinu kiti Kutellẹ, bara na tina ti ananba ti ta Kutellẹ, nworu ana fiya Kristi, a nani ana fiyaghe ba.
Then, too, we would be found to be false witnesses of God, because we would have given testimony against God, saying that he had raised up Christ, when he had not raised him up, if, indeed, the dead do not rise again.
16 Bara andi na ifiya anan kul ba, ame Kristi wang na ina fiyaghe ba.
For if the dead do not rise again, then neither has Christ risen again.
17 Andi na ina fiya Kristi ku ba, uyinu sa uyenu mine nso hemọ, inin du nan nya nalapi mine.
But if Christ has not risen, then your faith is vain; for you would still be in your sins.
18 Inung alenge na ina kuzu nan nya Kristi inung tutung wang inana.
Then, too, those who have fallen asleep in Christ would have perished.
19 Andi nan nya nlenge ulaiyere, cas tidi nin ciwu nayi udun nbu nan nya Kristi, nan nanit vat, tiso imon nkune kune.
If we have hope in Christ for this life only, then we are more miserable than all men.
20 Nani ina fiya Kristi ku nan nya nanan kul, nonon cizinu na lenge na ina kuzu.
But now Christ has risen again from the dead, as the first-fruits of those who sleep.
21 Bara na kitin nit urumari ukul na dak, kiti nit urumere wang ufitu nanan kul madak.
For certainly, death came through a man. And so, the resurrection of the dead came through a man
22 Nafo na unuzun Adamu vat naku, nanere wang unuzun Kristi vat ma se ulai.
And just as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be brought to life,
23 Nani ko uyeme nin unme ucine: Kristi kumat ncizunu, nin dortu nij nalenge na idi anitin Kristi ima tinani ulai nin dak me.
but each one in his proper order: Christ, as the first-fruits, and next, those who are of Christ, who have believed in his advent.
24 Kimal nimaline, asa Kristi ma nakpu Kiping tigowe kiti Kutellẹ uciffe, kubi ko na aba musuzu tigo nin nanan tigowe a anang nagan.
Afterwards is the end, when he will have handed over the kingdom to God the Father, when he will have emptied all principality, and authority, and power.
25 Aba su tigoh me udu kubi kongo na ale na inari ame ba tumunu nshin nabunu me.
For it is necessary for him to reign, until he has set all his enemies under his feet.
26 Unan ni vira nimaline na ima musuzu vat ukulari.
Lastly, the enemy called death shall be destroyed. For he has subjected all things under his feet. And although he says,
27 Bara, ''Anamalu uciu ko iyapin imon vat nshin nabunu me,'' kube na iworo ''a cau imon vat,'' udi kanang nworu na ulele nmunu ame ulenge na a cio ko iyapin imon na ame litime di nnanye ba.
“All things have been subjected to him,” without doubt he does not include the One who has subjected all things to him.
28 Vat ni lenge imon na ina nighe tigo kitene, na vat nimon ame usaunne litime ma ni litime kiti nlenge na ana ni imon vat kitime, Kutellẹ Ucif nan so vat nan nya vat.
And when all things will have been subjected to him, then even the Son himself will be subjected to the One who subjected all things to him, so that God may be all in all.
29 Andi na nani ba nyizari inung alenge alenge na idin tizu nani ubaptizima bara inung?
Otherwise, what will those who are being baptized for the dead do, if the dead do not rise again at all? Why then are they being baptized for them?
30 Iyaghari nta tissosin nan nya fiu ko kome kubi?
Why also do we endure trials every hour?
31 Nuana nilime nin nishono, ufo figiri nighe nin ghinue ulenge nan dimun nan nya Kristi Yisa Cikalari bit, meng belinmunu ulele: ndin kuzu nan nya kidowo kolome liri.
Daily I die, by means of your boasting, brothers: you whom I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.
32 In kpina nin nyang, nafo inyenju nnit usurne, andi inwa su nnun nin ninawa tene in Afisas, andi na iba fiyu anan kule ba? Na ti li ti so, bara na tina ku nin kwui.
If, according to man, I fought with the beasts at Ephesus, how would that benefit me, if the dead do not rise again? “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we shall die.”
33 Na iwa rusuzu minu ba: ''Ligo nan nanan nakara ananza din nanzu lidu licine.''
Do not be led astray. Evil communication corrupts good morals.
34 Fitan nan nya moro, sun lissosin li lau! Na iwa li ubun nin nalapi ba. Bara na among mine di nin yiru Kutellẹ ba, nbelle nani inan lanza ncing.
Be vigilant, you just ones, and do not be willing to sin. For certain persons have an ignorance of God. I say this to you with respect.
35 Umon ma woru ''iba fiwu anan kul inyizari? Nin niyapi nidowari iba sa?''
But someone may say, “How do the dead rise again?” or, “What type of body do they return with?”
36 Anung anan tanni! Imong ilenge na ibilisa na iba cizunu tikuna ba andi na ibijo ba.
How foolish! What you sow cannot be brought back to life, unless it first dies.
37 Imus ilenge na ubilisa na ima nuzu nin kani kidowe ba, bara ima yitu imusari cas, ima nin dẹ kpilio iso ileu sa imoimon ugan.
And what you sow is not the body that will be in the future, but a bare grain, such as of wheat, or of some other grain.
38 Kutellẹ ma ni fining kidowo ka na ame fere, tutung ko fome fimus nin kinme kidowe.
For God gives it a body according to his will, and according to each seed’s proper body.
39 Nidowo dizi ngangang, kin nit usurne duku, kin finawan ntene duku, kin kuyin duku, a kin fiboa yita ku.
Not all flesh is the same flesh. But one is indeed of men, another truly is of beasts, another is of birds, and another is of fish.
40 Nidowo duku tutung nin kitene a nin yii yita ku. Ngogon nidowo kitene kane di ugan a ngogon nidowo inyii ugang.
Also, there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. But while the one, certainly, has the glory of heaven, the other has the glory of earth.
41 Nmong ngogong duku min wui, a nmong ngogon ku min pwui, a nmong ku min niyini, bara ngogong nfong fiyini di ugang nin nfong fiyini.
One has the brightness of the sun, another the brightness of the moon, and another the brightness of the stars. For even star differs from star in brightness.
42 Nanere wang ufizu nanan kul. Ibila kining nan nya biju, iba fiu kining nin salin biju.
So it is also with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown in corruption shall rise to incorruption.
43 Ibila kining nan nya nsalin ngogong, ifiya kining nan nya ngogong. Ibila kining nan nya nsali likara ifiya kining nin likara.
What is sown in dishonor shall rise to glory. What is sown in weakness shall rise to power.
44 Ibila kining nan nya kidowo, ifiya kining nan nya kidowo nruhu. Andi kidowo nkul duku nanere wang kidowo nruhu duku.
What is sown with an animal body shall rise with a spiritual body. If there is an animal body, there is also a spiritual one.
45 Nanere tutung ina nyertin, '' unit un cizune Adamu wa so unan lai,'' Adamu nimalin so uruhun nnizun lai.
Just as it was written that the first man, Adam, was made with a living soul, so shall the last Adam be made with a spirit brought back to life.
46 Na kin ruhuere wa tu kidaba kishowo nin kidughe kin ruhue nin da.
So what is, at first, not spiritual, but animal, next becomes spiritual.
47 Unit uncizune kunan minari, iwa keghe nin lidau. Unit unba na nanuzu kitene kani.
The first man, being earthly, was of the earth; the second man, being heavenly, will be of heaven.
48 Nafo na ulenge na ina keghe nin lidau di, nanere wang alenge na ina ke nani nin lidau di. Nafo na unan kitene kane di, nanere wang inung alenge na idi anan kitene kane di.
Such things as are like the earth are earthly; and such things as are like the heavens are heavenly.
49 Nafo na tina yiru umuro nnit unan lidau, nanere wang tiba kuru tiyiru umuro nnit kitene kani.
And so, just as we have carried the image of what is earthly, let us also carry the image of what is heavenly.
50 Nene nbele ule ulirue, nuana nilime nin nishono, nya kidowo nin mii iwasa isu ugadu kipin tigo Kutellẹ ba, nanere wang kidowo in bijuzu wasa kisu ugadun kin salin bijuzu ba.
Now I say this, brothers, because flesh and blood is not able to possess the kingdom of God; neither will what is corrupt possess what is incorrupt.
51 Yeneng! Nbellin minu kidegen kanga na ki nyeshin. Na vat bitari ba kuba, vat bite ima kpiliwu nari.
Behold, I tell you a mystery. Certainly, we shall all rise again, but we shall not all be transformed:
52 Ima kpiliwu nari nin kubi cingiling, nini kpesh nin niyizi, nin wulsunu kulantun nimaline. Bara ba dunu, ima nin fiwu anan kul nin nidowon salin bijuzu, ima nin kpiliwu nari.
in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will rise up, incorruptible. And we shall be transformed.
53 Umaso gbas kidowo kin bijuzu shon usalin bijuzu, kidowo nkul shon kin sali nkul.
Thus, it is necessary for this corruptibility to be clothed with incorruptibility, and for this mortality to be clothed with immortality.
54 Asa kin bijuzue nshono kin salin bijuzue, kidowo nkul shono usali nkul, kubi konere uliru ulenge na iwa nyertin manin kulu, ''Imila ukul nan nya nnasara''
And when this mortality has been clothed with immortality, then the word that was written shall occur: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”
“O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?” (Hadēs g86)
56 Lito nkul kulaperi, a likara kulapi udukari.
Now the sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
57 Vat nin nani, liburi libo bit di kiti Kutellẹ, ulenge na ana ni nari unasara nan nya NCikilari bite, Yisa Kristi!
But thanks be to God, who has given us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Bara nani, nuana insu ni nilime nan nishono, yisinan nin nakara, sa ucancanu, ko kome kubi ikpizin ngbardang nan. nya katwa NCikilare, bara iyiru na katwa mine kitin Cikilare maso kahem ba.
And so, my beloved brothers, be steadfast and unmovable, abounding always in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not useless in the Lord.
