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,
Pacino cino cindi mobanse bame, ndayandanga kumwanushako Makani Aina ngondalamukambaukila. Mwalatambula cena pakwinga epashimpa lushomo lwenu.
2 by which also ye are saved, if ye hold fast the word which I preached unto you, except ye believed in vain.
Lesa nakamupulushe ne Mulumbe Waina uwu, na kamusunga cena maswi akendi ngondalamukambaukila. Na mubula kwinseco, lushomo lwenu ingaluba lwabulyo.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which also I received: that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
Ame ndalatambula makani alayandikinga, awo ngondalamwambila mbuli ncondalambilweti, Klistu walafwila bwipishi bwetu mbuli ncecalembwa mu Mabala a Lesa,
4 and that he was buried; and that he hath been raised on the third day according to the scriptures;
kwambeti balamubika mumanda, nomba Lesa walamupundusha pabusuba bwa butatu mbuli Mabala Lesa ncalambanga.
5 and that he appeared to Cephas; then to the twelve;
Kayi palikuba makani akwambeti walabonekela kuli Petulo ne kuli batumwa likumi ne babili.
6 then he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain until now, but some are fallen asleep;
Kayi walabonekela kuli beshikwiya bakendi bapita myanda isanu, bangi bacili bayumi lelo necikabeti nabambi bafwa.
7 then he appeared to James; then to all the apostles;
Pacindi nacimbi walabonekela kuli Jemusi ne kuli batumwa bonse.
8 and last of all, as to the [child] untimely born, he appeared to me also.
Nomba pamapwililisho walabonekela kulinjame ondyeti mwana ngobalayambakanya.
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.
Ame njame mung'ana pabatumwa bonse, kayi nkandelela nekukwiweti mutumwa sobwe, pakwinga njame ndalikupensha mubungano wa Lesa.
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.
Nomba cebo ca kwambeti Lesa waina moyo, lelo nenjame ndemutumwa. Kwina moyo kwakendi ntelo kwabulyo sobwe, kayi ndalimbikila kusebensa ncito kupita batumwa nabambi, nomba ntame ndalikusebensa sobwe, nsombi ni kwinamoyo kwa Lesa.
11 Whether then [it be] I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
Neco ncondalikukambauka nambi ncobalikukambauka nabambi, nsombi twense tulakambaukunga Mulumbe umo umo uwo ngomulashomonga.
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?
Lino, pakwinga mulumbe wetu niwakwambeti Klistu walapunduka kubafu, inga nipacebo cini nabambi mulinjamwe ncobela kwambileti bafwa nteti bakapunduke?
13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither hath Christ been raised:
Pakwinga na bafwa nteti bakapunduke, ekwambeti nendi Yesu uliya kupunduka kubafu.
14 and if Christ hath not been raised, then is our preaching vain, your faith also is vain.
Anu na Klistu uliya kupunduka kubafu, ncotulakambaukunga nicabulyo, kayi nekushoma kwenu nikwabulyo.
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.
Pelu palico, ingacilesheti afwe tulabepenga Lesa, pakwambeti Lesa walapundusha Yesu kubafu. Na nicakubinga kwambeti bafwa nteti bakapunduke, anu Lesa uliya kumupundusha Yesu kubafu.
16 For if the dead are not raised, neither hath Christ been raised:
Neco, na bafwa nteti bakapunduke, anu neye Yesu uliya kupunduka sobwe.
17 and if Christ hath not been raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
Kayi na Lesa uliya kumupundusha Yesu, okwambeti lushomo lwenu muli Klistu nilwabulyo, kayi mucili panshi pangofu yabwipishi.
18 Then they also that are fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
Kayi ngacipandululeti abo balafwa kabali bashoma muli Yesu, bafwa kufwililila.
19 If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.
Na kupembelela kwetu muli Klistu nikwabuyumi bwacino cindi conka, ekwambeti afwe ingatuba ne nsoni kupita bantu bonse mucishi capanshi.
20 But now hath Christ been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of them that are asleep.
Nomba cakubinga nicakwambeti, Lesa walamupundusha Klistu kubafu kuba citondesho cakwambeti, uliyense eti akafwe nakapundushiwe kubafu.
21 For since by man [came] death, by man [came] also the resurrection of the dead.
Mbuli lufu ncolwalesa pacebo ca muntu umo, cimocimo nekupunduka kubafu kwalesa pacebo ca muntu umo.
22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.
Mbuli Adamu ncalatuletela lufu twense, nenjafwe twense Klistu nakatupundushe kubafu.
23 But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; then they that are Christ’s, at his coming.
Nomba Lesa nakapundushenga muntu uliyense pacindi cakendi camwelela. Cakutanguna Lesa walapundusha Klistu cisepo citanshi, kayi Klistu akesa nakapundushe abo bashoma muliendiye.
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.
Popelapo mapwililisho acishi nakashike, Klistu akakoma bendeleshi bamishimu yaipa bonse, bulelo bonse ne ngofu shonse nakatwale Bwami mumakasa a Lesa Baishi.
25 For he must reign, till he hath put all his enemies under his feet.
Neco Klistu welela kwendelesha bulelo kushikila cindi Lesa ncoti akakome balwani bakendi, ne kubabika panshi pamyendo yakendi Klistu.
26 The last enemy that shall be abolished is death.
Mulwani wakupwililisha eti akomwe ni lufu.
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.
Mabala a Lesa alambangeti, “Lesa labiki bintu byonse panshi pa myendo ya Mwana muntu.” Paliya kutonshana nditu pamaswi akwambeti, “bintu byonse” Nkabilasankanyangaponga Lesa mwine uyo labikinga bintu byonse kuli Klistu.
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.
Neco bintu byonse byakabikwa mubwendeleshi bwa Klistu, nendi nakalibike panshi pa bwendeleshi bwa Baishi abo balabika bintu byonse panshi palyendiye, kufumapo Lesa nakendeleshe kwakupwililila kucindi cacindi.
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?
Ingalino, cilyeconi kubantu abo balabatishiwanga pacebo ca bantu bafwa? Nicani ncobela kwinsa? Na nicakubinga kwambeti Lesa nkelela kupundusha bafwa, mbuli bantu ncobalambanga, inga nipacebo cini bantu ncobalabatishiwanga cebo cabafwa beti bakabule kupundushiwa?
30 why do we also stand in jeopardy every hour?
Nipacebo cini afwe ncotulabikilinga buyumi bwetu mumapensho cindi conse?
31 I protest by that glorying in you, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
Mobanse bame, ame ndalangananga nelufu busuba ne busuba. Nomba ndambilishinga kulitunta kwakame palinjamwe, nikulitunta kwa buyumi bwetu muli Klistu Yesu, kayi ecilampanga kwambeco.
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.
Lino na ndalalwana ne bantu abo bela kwambweti nibanyama kuno ku Efenso, kupitila mumiyeyo ilafumunga kubantu, inga ndalacanapo cani? Neco na bafwa nteti bakapunduke, anu caina kwinsa mbuli ncobakute kwambeti. “Katulyani ne kunwa. Pakwinga lilo nitukafwe.”
33 Be not deceived: Evil companionships corrupt good morals.
“Kamutabepwa. Cinga cakwenda pamo ne bantu bakute bwikalo bwaipa cikute kwipisha bwikalo bwaina.”
34 Awake to soberness righteously, and sin not; for some have no knowledge of God: I speak [this] to move you to shame.
Cangamukani! Shiyani bwikalo bwenu bwaipa. Ndambanga cakumupa nsoni pakwinga mobambi nkamumwishi Lesa.
35 But some one will say, How are the dead raised? and with what manner of body do they come?
Naumbi muntu ngawipusheti, “Inga bafwa nibakapundukeconi? Nibakabe ne mibili ilyeconi?”
36 Thou foolish one, that which thou thyself sowest is not quickened except it die:
Uku nikwipusha kwakutabila! Mukute mwafumbika nseke mubulongo, nkaikute kumena kaitana ibeti ilabolo.
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;
Kayi nkamwela kubyala nseke shamena kendi, nsombi inseke shine, na ni shamaila nambi shacishango camushobo uliwonse.
38 but God giveth it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.
Lesa eukute kupa mbuto imo ne imo mubili, kwelana ne kuyanda kwakendi.
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.
Munyemfu wabintu byonse bikute buyumi nkawakoshana sobwe, bantu bakute munyemfu umbi, banyama bakute umbi, nasho inswi shikute munyemfu umbi.
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.
Pali mibili yakwilu, kayi neya pacishi capanshi, nabo bulemu bwa mibili yakwilu bwapusana ne bulemu bwa mibili yapacishi capanshi.
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.
Lisuba nkalyakoshana ne mwenshi, nawo mwenshi nkawakoshana ne nyenyenshi, nasho nyenyenshi nkashakoshana sobwe.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
Umu emoti ikabele mibili pakupunduka kubafu. Mubili ngotukute kubika mumanda ukute kuya kubola, nomba wapundushiwa nteti ukabole sobwe.
43 it is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
Pakubika mubilli mumanda ukute koli waipa, kayi wabula ngofu, nomba pakupunduka nukabe wabeka! Ukute ngofu!
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].
Mubili ukute kubikwa mumanda ni mubili wabuntu, pakupunduka nukabe mubili wa mushimu. Nditu na pali mubili wabuntu, anu nawo mubili wa mushimu nkoli.
45 So also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam [became] a life-giving spirit.
Pakwinga Mabala a Lesa alambangeti, “Adamu muntu mutanshi walalengweti abe muyumi” Nomba Adamu wakupwililisha emushimu ukute kupa buyumi.
46 Howbeit that is not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; then that which is spiritual.
Neco, tulabono kwambeti ntewo mubili wa mushimu wela kutanguna, nsombi usa mubili wabuntu, wakonkapo ni mubili wa mushimu.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven.
Muntu wakutanguna walikuba wapacishi capanshi, kayi walabumbwa kufumina kubulongo, muntu walakonkapo walafumina kwilu kumayoba.
48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
Mbuli muntu wakutanguna walabumbwa kufumina kubulongo ncalikuba encobabele bapacishi capanshi, mbuli uyo wakwilu kumayoba ncabele encobabele nabo bakwilu.
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
Lino mbuli ncotwakoshana ne uyo walabumbwa kufumina kubulongo, kayi nitukakoshane ne uyo walafuma kwilu kumayoba.
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
Mobanse bame, cintu ncondambanga nicakwambeti, muntu ukute mubili wa munyemfu ne milopa nkela kwingila mu Bwami bwakwilu sobwe, nambi cikute kufwa, kuba citabolo.
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all shall not sleep, but we shall all be changed,
Nyumfwani cancine ncine casolekwa, nteti tukafwe twense.
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.
Pakwinga tolompita yakalila twense nitukashinte popelapo, mbuli kukapula kwa linso. Pakwinga tolompita yakalila bafwa nibakapunduke, nteti tukafwepo kayi twense nitukashinte.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
Pakwinga mibili ikute kubola yela kuba itabolo. Cikute kufwa cela kushinta kuba citafu.
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.
Ici cakenshika kwambeti, cikute kubola cakashinta kuba citabolo, kayi ceshikufwa cakashinta kuba citafu, popelapo Mabala a Lesa nakakwanilishiwe alambangeti, “Lufu lulalobo kayi kukoma kulashiki.
Obe lufu inga kukoma kwakobe kulikupeyo? Obe lufu inga ngofu shakobe shilikupeyo?” (Hadēs g86)
56 The sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law:
Lufu lwalafuma kubwipishi, nabo bwipishi bwalafuma ku mulawo.
57 but thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Nomba tulalumbunga Lesa latupanga ngofu shakukoma kupitila muli Mwami wetu Yesu Klistu!
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.
Neco, mobanse bame, kamwimanani ncili. Sebensani ncito ya Mwami cindi conse, pakwinga mucisheti ncito ya Mwami njemulenshinga nteyo yabulyo sobwe.
