1 Corinthians 15
1 Now I make known unto you brethren, the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye received, wherein also ye stand,
Naizvozvo, hama, ndinokuzivisai evhangeri yandakakuparidzirai, yamagamuchirawo, neyamumire mairi;
2 by which also ye are saved, if ye hold fast the word which I preached unto you, except ye believed in vain.
uye yamunoponeswawo nayo, kana muchibatisisa inzwi reevhangeri randakaparidza kwamuri, kunze kwekuti makatenda pasina.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which also I received: that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
Nokuti ndakakumikidza kwamuri pakutanga izvo zvandakagamuchirawo, kuti Kristu wakafira zvivi zvedu, zvichienderana nemagwaro;
4 and that he was buried; and that he hath been raised on the third day according to the scriptures;
uye kuti wakavigwa, uye kuti wakamutswa nezuva retatu, zvichienderana nemagwaro;
5 and that he appeared to Cephas; then to the twelve;
uye kuti wakaonekwa kuna Kefasi, pashure kune vanegumi nevaviri;
6 then he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain until now, but some are fallen asleep;
shure kweizvozvo wakaonekwa kuhama dzinopfuura mazana mashanu nguva imwe, vazhinji vavo vachiripo kusvikira ikozvino, asi vamwewo varara;
7 then he appeared to James; then to all the apostles;
shure kweizvozvo wakaonekwa kuna Jakobho; pashure kuvaapositori vese.
8 and last of all, as to the [child] untimely born, he appeared to me also.
Uye pakupedzisira kwevese akaonekwa neniwo, sekune wakazvarwa nguva isina kufanira.
9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
Nokuti ini ndiri mudikisa wevaapositori, handifaniri kunzi muapositori, nokuti ndakashusha kereke yaMwari.
10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not found vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
Asi nenyasha dzaMwari ndiri zvandiri, uye nyasha dzake dziri pandiri hadzina kuva pasina; asi ndakabata zvikuru kupfuura vese; zvakadaro handisi ini, asi nyasha dzaMwari dzineni.
11 Whether then [it be] I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
Naizvozvo, kana ndiri ini kana ivo, saizvozvo tinoparidza uye saizvozvo makatenda.
12 Now if Christ is preached that he hath been raised from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
Zvino kana Kristu achiparidzwa kuti wakamutswa kubva kuvakafa, vamwe pakati penyu vanoreva sei kuti hakuna kumuka kwevakafa?
13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither hath Christ been raised:
Asi dai pasina kumuka kwevakafa, naKristu haana kumutswa;
14 and if Christ hath not been raised, then is our preaching vain, your faith also is vain.
uye kana Kristu asina kumutswa, naizvozvo kuparidza kwedu hakuna maturo, nerutendo rwenyuwo harwuna maturo.
15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we witnessed of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead are not raised.
Nesuwo tinowanikwa tiri zvapupu zvaMwari zvenhema, nokuti takapupura zvaMwari kuti wakamutsa Kristu iye waasina kumutsa, kana kuri kuti vakafa havamutswi.
16 For if the dead are not raised, neither hath Christ been raised:
Nokuti dai vakafa vasingamutswi, Kristu haanawo kumutswa;
17 and if Christ hath not been raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
uye dai Kristu asina kumutswa, rutendo rwenyu haruna maturo; muchiri muzvivi zvenyu.
18 Then they also that are fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
Naizvozvo nevarere muna Kristu vaparara.
19 If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.
Dai muupenyu huno tine tariro muna Kristu chete, tinonzwisa tsitsi kukunda vanhu vese.
20 But now hath Christ been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of them that are asleep.
Asi ikozvinowo Kristu wakamutswa kubva kuvakafa, akava chibereko chekutanga chevarere.
21 For since by man [came] death, by man [came] also the resurrection of the dead.
Nokuti sezvo nemunhu rufu rwakauya, kumuka kwevakafawo kwakauya nemunhu.
22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.
Nokuti vese muna Adhamu sezvavanofa, saizvozvowo vese muna Kristu vachararamiswa.
23 But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; then they that are Christ’s, at his coming.
Asi umwe neumwe padzoro rake; Kristu chibereko chekutanga, tevere avo vari vaKristu pakuuya kwake,
24 Then [cometh] the end, when he shall deliver up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have abolished all rule and all authority and power.
kozouya kuguma, paachazokumikidza umambo kuna Mwari, ivo Baba, paachaparadza kutonga kwese neushe hwese nesimba.
25 For he must reign, till he hath put all his enemies under his feet.
Nokuti anofanira iye kutonga, kusvikira aisa vese vavengi pasi petsoka dzake.
26 The last enemy that shall be abolished is death.
Muvengi wekupedzisira uchaparadzwa ndirwo rufu.
27 For, He put all things in subjection under his feet. But when he saith, All things are put in subjection, it is evident that he is excepted who did subject all things unto him.
Nokuti wakaisa zvinhu zvese pasi petsoka dzake. Asi kana achiti zvinhu zvese zvakaiswa pasi pake, zviri pachena kuti ari kunze wakaisa zvinhu zvese pasi pake.
28 And when all things have been subjected unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subjected to him that did subject all things unto him, that God may be all in all.
Zvino kana zvinhu zvese zvaiswa pasi pake, ipapo Mwanakomanawo amene achaiswa pasi paiye wakaisa zvese pasi pake, kuti Mwari ave zvese mune zvese.
29 Else what shall they do that are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them?
Ko, vanobhabhatidzirwa vakafa vachaita sei kana vakafa vasingatongomutswi? Vakagobhabhatidzirwa vakafa nemhaka yei?
30 why do we also stand in jeopardy every hour?
Nemhaka yei nesu tiri panjodzi awa rega-rega?
31 I protest by that glorying in you, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
Ndinofa zuva nezuva, ndinopika nokuzvikudza pamusoro penyu kwandinako muna Kristu Jesu Ishe wedu.
32 If after the manner of men I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what doth it profit me? If the dead are not raised, let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die.
Kana ndakarwa nenzira yevanhu nezvikara paEfeso, zvinondibatsirei, kana vakafa vasingamutswi? Ngatidye nekunwa, nokuti mangwana tinofa.
33 Be not deceived: Evil companionships corrupt good morals.
Musanyengerwa; kushamwaridzana nevakaipa kunoodza tsika dzakanaka.
34 Awake to soberness righteously, and sin not; for some have no knowledge of God: I speak [this] to move you to shame.
Pengenukai nenzira yekururama uye musatadza, nokuti vamwe vane kusaziva Mwari; ndinotaura kuti muve nenyadzi.
35 But some one will say, How are the dead raised? and with what manner of body do they come?
Asi umwe achati: Vakafa vanomutswa sei? Uye vanouya nemuviri wakaita sei?
36 Thou foolish one, that which thou thyself sowest is not quickened except it die:
Dununu, icho chaunodzvara iwe hachiitwi chipenyu kunze kwekuti chafa;
37 and that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be, but a bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other kind;
uye icho chaunodzvara, haudzvari muviri uchavapo, asi tsanga isina chinhu, kana yezviyo kana yezvimwe;
38 but God giveth it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.
asi Mwari anoipa muviri paanoda napo, nekumbeu imwe neimwe muviri wayo pachayo.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one [flesh] of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fishes.
Nyama yese haisi nyama imwe; asi imwe inyama yevanhu, imwewo inyama yemhuka, imwewo yehove, imwewo yeshiri.
40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the [glory] of the terrestrial is another.
Kune miviriwo yekudenga, nemiviri yenyika; asi kubwinya kweyekudenga ndekumwe, asi kweyenyika ndekumwe.
41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differeth from another star in glory.
Kumwe kubwinya ndekwezuva, nekumwe kubwinya ndekwemwedzi, uye kumwe kubwinya ndekwenyeredzi, nokuti nyeredzi inosiyana neimwe nyeredzi pakubwinya.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
Kwakadarowo kumuka kwevakafa. Kunodzvarwa mukuora, kunomutswa mukusaora;
43 it is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
kunodzvarwa mukuzvidzwa, kunomutswa mukubwinya; kunodzvarwa muutera, kunomutswa musimba.
44 it is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual [body].
Kunodzvarwa kuri muviri wechisikirwo, kunomutswa kuri muviri wemweya. Kune muviri wechisikirwo, uye kune muviri wemweya.
45 So also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam [became] a life-giving spirit.
Zvakanyorwawo saizvozvo zvichinzi: Munhu wekutanga Adhamu wakaitwa munhu anorarama; Adhamu wekupedzisira mweya unoraramisa.
46 Howbeit that is not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; then that which is spiritual.
Asi zvinotanga hazvisi zvemweya asi zvechisikirwo; tevere zvemweya.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven.
Munhu wekutanga wakabva panyika, ndewevhu; munhu wechipiri ndiIshe anobva kudenga.
48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
Sewevhu, vakadarowo avo vevhu; uye sewekudenga, vakadarowo vekudenga.
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
Uye sezvatakatakura chimiro chewevhu, tichatakurawo chimiro chewekudenga.
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
Zvino ndinoreva izvi, hama, kuti nyama neropa hazvingagoni kugara nhaka yeushe hwaMwari; nokuora hakungagari nhaka yekusaora.
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all shall not sleep, but we shall all be changed,
Tarirai, ndinokuudzai chakavanzika: Hatingavati tese, asi tichashandurwa tese;
52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
nenguva diki-diki, mukuhwaira kweziso, pahwamanda yekupedzisira; nokuti hwamanda icharira, uye vakafa vachamutswa mukusaora, nesu tichashandurwa.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
Nokuti ichi chinoora chinofanira kupfeka kusaora, neichi chinofa chipfeke kusafa.
54 But when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
Zvino kana ichi chinoora chapfeka kusaora, neichi chinofa chapfeka kusafa, ipapo kuchaitika shoko rakanyorwa rinoti: Rufu rwakamedzwa mukukunda.
Iwe rufu, rumborera rwako rwuripi? Iwe guva, kukunda kwako kuripi? (Hadēs g86)
56 The sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law:
Rumborera rwerufu chivi, nesimba rechivi murairo.
57 but thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Zvino ngaavongwe Mwari anotipa kukunda naIshe wedu Jesu Kristu.
58 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not vain in the Lord.
Naizvozvo, hama dzangu dzinodikanwa, simbai, musingazungunuswi, nguva dzese muchiwedzerwa pabasa raIshe muchiziva kuti kubata kwenyu hakusi pasina muna Ishe.
