1 Corinthians 14
1 Pursue love, and be zealous for the spiritual things, but more that ye may prophesy.
Mubhulondayi luganu ni kunoghela nesu karama sya roho, zaidi nesu mubhwesiajhi kuhomesya bhunabii.
2 For he who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men, but to God, for no man hears, but in spirit he speaks mysteries.
Ndabha muene jha ijobha kwa lugha ijobhalepi ni bhanu bali ijobha ni K'yara. Ndabha ajhelepi jhaijhelebhwa ndabha ijobha mambo ghaghakifighili mu roho.
3 But he who prophesies speaks to men edification and encouragement and comfort.
Lakini muene jhaihomesya bhunabii, ijobha ni bhanu ni kubhajenga, kubhapela muoyo, ni kubhafariji.
4 He who speaks in a tongue builds himself up, but he who prophesies builds up the congregation.
Muene jha ijobha kwa lugha ikwijenga muene, lakini muene jha ihomesya bhunabii akalijenga likanisa.
5 Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but more that ye may prophesy. For greater is he who prophesies than he who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets, so that the congregation may receive edification.
Henu ninoghel muenga mwebhoha munenajhi kwa lugha. Lakini zaidi jha aghu, ninoghela muhomesiajhi bhunabii. Muene jhaihomesya bhunabii ndo mbaha kuliko muene jha ijobha kwa lugha (labda ajhiajhi ghwa kutafsiri), ili kwamba likanisa libhwesiajhi kujengibhwa.
6 But now, brothers, if I come to you speaking in tongues, what will I benefit you, unless I would speak to you either in a revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophesying, or in doctrine?
Lakini henu, kaka ni dada bhangu, nikahidayi kwa muenga ni kujobha kwa lugha, nibetakubhafaidila kiki muenga? nihotola lepi, isipokujha nijobha namu kwa njela jha ufunuo, au kwa njela jha maarifa, au bhunabii, au kwa njela jha lifundisu.
7 Likewise lifeless things that give a sound, whether flute or harp, if they give no distinction in the sounds, how will it be known what is being piped or harped?
Ikajhiajhi fenu fyafibeli kujha ni bhuomi kama filimbi au kinubi fikabelayi kuhomesya sauti syasijhele ni tofauti jhibeta kutambulika bhuli, khenu kaelekhu kikinibhwa?
8 For also if a trumpet gives an uncertain sound, who will prepare himself for battle?
Kwa ndabha jhikajhelayi baragumu betakuhomesya sauti jhajhibeli kumanyikana, ni kwa namna jhel'eku munu ibeta kumanya jha kujha ndo muda ghwa kwiandala kwa vita?
9 So also ye, unless ye give understandable speech by the tongue, how will that which is spoken be known? For ye will be talking into the air.
Fefuefu ni muenga. Mkahomesiajhi kwa lumilu lilobhi lya libelikujha dhahiri, ndo namna jhelekhu munu ibeta kujhelebhwa kyamwijobha? Mwibetakujha mwilongela, na ajhelepi jhaibetakubhajhelebhwa.
10 Since there are perhaps, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without significance.
Ijhelepi shaka kujha kujhe ni lugha simehele nesu paduniani, na ajhelepi hata jhimonga jhajhibelikujha ni maana.
11 If therefore I know not the force of the voice, I will be a foreigner to him who speaks, and he who speaks will be a foreigner to me.
Lakini ikajhiajhi nimanyilepi maana jha lugha, nibetakujha ne n'hesya ghwa muene jha ijobha kwa lugha, ni muene jha ijobha ibetakujha n'hesya kwa nene.
12 So also ye, since ye are zealots of spirits, seek so that ye may excel for the edification of the church.
Mebhu ni muenga. Kwa kujha mwinoghela nesu kulola bhuthihirisu bhwa roho, mulondajhi kujha munoghelayi nesu kulijenga likanisa.
13 Therefore let him who speaks in a tongue pray that he may interpret.
Nahu, muene jha ijobha kwa lugha na asomajhi kupelibhwa kutafsiri.
14 For if I pray in a tongue my spirit prays, but my intellect is unfruitful.
Kwa ndabha nikas'okayi kwa lugha, roho jhanene jhis'oma, lakini luhala lwangu lujhelepi ni matunda.
15 What is it therefore? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the intellect also. I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the intellect also.
Nikhetayi khikhi? Nibetakusoma kwa roho jhangu. Lakini kabhele nibeta kus'oka kwa luhala lwangu. Nibetakujhemba kwa roho jhiangu, na nibetakujhemba kwa luhala lwangu kabhele.
16 Otherwise if thou would bless with the spirit, how will the man who fills the place of the unlearned, say the Truly at thy thanksgiving, since he knows not what thou say?
Kama ndo mebhu, ukan'tufiajhi K'yara kwa roho, muene jhaajhele n'hesya ibetakujhedeka bhuli “Amina” pawihomesya kabhombesilu, kama ijhelebhwalepi gha wijobha?
17 For thou indeed express thanks well, but the other man is not edified.
Ndabha bhukweli bhebhe ghwibhombesya kinofu, lakini jhola ijengibhwa lepi.
18 I thank my God that I speak in tongues more than all of you.
Nikambombesya K'yara kwa ndabha nijobha kwa lugha nesu jha muenga mwebhoha.
19 Yet in an assembly I would rather speak five words with my intellect, so that I might also make others understand, than countless words in a tongue.
Lakini mu kanisa heri nijobhayi malobhi mahanu kwa bhufahamu bhwa nene ili nikabhajhi kubhamanyisya bhamana, zaidi jha kujobha malobhi elfu kumi gha lugha.
20 Brothers, become not children in your thoughts. Instead be childlike in wickedness, but in your thoughts become mature.
Kaka ni dada jhangu, musijhi bhana mu kufikiri kwa muenga. Badala jhiake, kuhusiana ni bhuofu, mujhelayi kama bhana bhadebe. Lakini mu kufikiri kwa muenga mukajhelayi bhanu bhazima.
21 In the law it is written, In other tongues and in other lips I will speak to this people, and not even so will they hear me, says the Lord.
Jhilembibhu mu sheria, “Kwa bhanu bha lugha samana ni kwa milomo ghya bhahesya nibetakujobha ni bhanu abha. Bhwala hata naha bhibetalepi kunip'eka,” ijobha Bwana.
22 Therefore tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to the unbelieving. But prophesying is not to the unbelieving, but to those who believe.
Naha, lumilu ndo ishara, sio kwa bhiamini, bali kwa bhabelikukiera. Lakini kupisya unabii ndo ishara, sio kwa bhabeli kukiera, bali kwa ndabha jha bhabhikiera.
23 If therefore the whole congregation comes together in the same place, and all speak in tongues, and unlearned or unbelieving men come in, will they not say that ye are mad?
Agha, ikajhiajhi likanisa lyoha libhonganiki pamonga ni bhoha bhajobhayi kwa lugha, ni bhahesya ni bhabhabeli kukiera bhajhingili, je, bhibhwesyalepi kujobha kujha mujhe ni wazimu?
24 But if all prophesy, and some unbelieving or unlearned man comes in, he is convicted by all, he is called to account by all.
Lakini ikajhiajhi mwebhoha mwihomesya unabii ni jhaabelikukiera au n'hesya akajhingila, ibeta kushawishibhwa ni ghoha ghaibetakupeleka. Ibeta kuhukumibhwa ni ghoha ghaghijobhibhwa.
25 And so the secrets of his heart are made manifest. And so having fallen down on his face he will worship God, declaring that God is really among you.
Siri sya muoyo bhwa muene ngasifunulibhu. Matokeo ghake, ngaabinili kifudifudi ni kumwabudu K'yara. Ngaajhedekili kujha K'yara ajhe pagati pa tete.
26 What is it therefore, brothers? When ye come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.
Khelekhu kyakikyesya henu, kaka ni nd'omb'o bhangu? Pamwibhonene pamonga, kila mmonga ajhe ni Zaburi, mafundisu, mafunulibhu, lugha au tafsiri. Mubhombayi khila khenu ili kwamba mulijengayi kanisa.
27 If any man speaks in a tongue, be according to two, or at the most three, and in succession. And let one interpret.
Kama jhejhioha jha ijobha kwa lugha bhajhelayi bhabhele au bhadatu, ni khila mmonga mu zamu. Ni khila munu atafusirijhi kyakijobhibhu.
28 But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silence in an assembly, and let him speak to himself and to God.
Lakini kama ajhelepi munu ghwa kutafsiri, basi khila mmonga bhabhi atamayi kinunu mugati mu kanisa. Basi khila mmonga alongelayi muene ni kwa K'yara.
29 And let two or three prophets speak, and let the other men pass judgment.
Ni manabii bhabhele au bhadatu bhajobhayi kwa lugha, ni bhamana bhap'olek'esiajhi kwa kupambanula kyakyajobhibhu.
30 But if it should be revealed to another man who is seated, let the first be silent.
Lakini jhaatamili akafunulibhwajhi lijambo mu huduma, jhola ambajhe ajobheghe na agudamayi.
31 For ye can all prophesy one by one, so that all may learn, and all may be encouraged.
Kwakujha khila mmonga bhinu ibhwesya kuhomesya bhunabii bhwa muene umonga badala jha bhongi ili kwamba khila mmonga abhwesiajhi kwimanyisya ni bhoha bhabhwesiajhi kupelibhwa muoyo.
32 And the spirits of prophets are subject to prophets,
Kwa kujha roho sya manabii sijhele pasi pa bhulolesi bhwa manabii.
33 for God is not a God of confusion, but of peace.
Kwa kujha K'yara sio K'yara ghwa machafuko bali ghwa imani. Kama kyajhijhele ku makanisa ghoha gha bhaamini,
34 As in all the churches of the sanctified, let the women keep silent in the churches. For it is not permitted for them to speak, but to be subordinate, as the law also says.
Jhilondeke bhadala bhatamayi kinunu mu kanisa. Kwa kujha bhiruhusibhwa lepi kulongela. Badala jhiake, bhilondeka kujha mu bhunyenyekevu, kama kabhele sheria kyajhijobha.
35 And if they want to learn anything, let them question their own husbands at home, for it is an ugly thing for women to speak in an assembly.
Kama kijhele kyokyoha bhinoghela kwimanyisya, basi bhabhakhotayi bhagosi bhabhi kunyumba. Kwa kujha soni kwa n'dala kulongela mu kanisa.
36 Or did the word of God come forth from you? Or did it come to you only?
Je lilobhi lya K'yara lyahomili kwa muenga? Je, libhafikili muenga tu?
37 If any man presumes to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge what I write to you, that they are commandments of the Lord.
Kama munu akibhuene kujha ndo nabii au bhwa mu roho, jhilondeka aghamanyayi mambo ghanikabhale mbela jha kujha ndo malaghisu gha Bwana.
38 But if any man is ignorant, let him be ignorant.
Lakini kama amanyilepi agha, mundekayi asimanyikibhu.
39 Therefore brothers, be zealous for prophesying, and do not forbid to speak in tongues.
Henu, kaka ni bhal'ombo bhangu, mulandayi nesu kuhomesya unabii, na musin'besi munu jhejhioha kujobha kwa lugha.
40 Let all things be done decently and in order.
Lakini mambo ghoha ghabhombekayi kwa unofu ni kwa bhutaratibu.
