1 Corinthians 7
1 Nowe concerning the thinges whereof ye wrote vnto mee, It were good for a man not to touche a woman.
Kuhusu mambo ghamnyandikili: Kuyele wakati ambapu ni kinofu ngosi akolokugona ni ndala munu.
2 Neuertheles, to auoide fornication, let euery man haue his wife, and let euery woman haue her owne husband.
Lakini kwa ndabha ya majaribu mingi gha zinaa khila ngosi ayelai ni ndala wa muene, na khila ndala ayelai ni ngosi munu.
3 Let the husband giue vnto the wife due beneuolence, and likewise also the wife vnto the husband.
Ngosi ipasika kumpela ndala haki ya muene ya ndobho, ni khela khela ndala ni muene kwa ngosi munu.
4 The wife hath not the power of her owne bodie, but ye husband: and likewise also the husband hath not ye power of his own body, but the wife.
Si ndala yayele ni mamlaka juu ya mbhelhe wa muene, ni ngosi. Khela khela, ngosi ni muene ayelepi ni mamlaka juu ya mbhele wa muene, bali ndala ayenaku.
5 Defraude not one another, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may giue your selues to fasting and praier, and againe come together that Satan tempt you not for your incontinecie.
Mkolokuyimana pamwigona pamonga, isipokwa mkubalianaa kwa muda maalum. Mketai naha ili kukabha muda wa maombi. Kisha mwibhuesya kukhelhebhukilana kabhele pamonga, ili kwamba Shetani akolokuhida kubhajaribu kwa kukosa kiasi.
6 But I speake this by permission, not by commandement.
Lakini nijobha agha mambo kwa hiari na si kama amri.
7 For I woulde that all men were euen as I my selfe am: but euery man hath his proper gift of God, one after this maner, and another after that.
Nitamani kila mmonga ngayele kama nene kaniyele. Lakini khila mmonga ayele ni karama ya muene kuhoma kwa K'yara. Oyo ayele ni karama eye, ni yhola karama yhela.
8 Therefore I say vnto the vnmaried, and vnto the widowes, It is good for them if they abide euen as I doe.
Kwa bhabelili kugegekibhwa ni bhajane niobha kwamba, ni kinofu kwa bhene kama bhabakili bila kugegekibhwa, kama kaniyele nene.
9 But if they cannot abstaine, let them marrie: for it is better to marrie then to burne.
Lakini kama mwibhuesyalepi kwizuila, bhipasibhwa kugegekibhwa kwa ndabha heri kwa bhene kugegekibhwa kuliko kuyaka tamaa.
10 And vnto ye maried I comand, not I, but ye Lord, Let not ye wife depart from her husband.
henu kwa bhala bhabhagegekibhu nikabhaphela amri, nelepi bali ni Bwana. “Ndala akolokutengana ni ngosi munu.”
11 But and if shee depart, let her remaine vnmaried, or be reconciled vnto her husband, and let not the husband put away his wife.
Lakini kama kajitenga kuhoma kwa ngosi munu, abakilai mewa bila kugegekibhwa au vinginevyo apatanai ni ngosi munu. Ni “Ngosi akolokumphela talaka ndala munu.”
12 But to ye remnant I speake, and not ye Lord, If any brother haue a wife, ye beleeueth not, if she be content to dwell with him, let him not forsake her.
Lakini bhakili, nijobha - nene, si Bwana -kwamba kama ndongo yeywoha yhola ayele ni ndala yaiaminilepi na iridhika kuishi ni muene, ipasibhwa lepi kundeka.
13 And the woman which hath an husband that beleeueth not, if he be content to dwell with her, let her not forsake him.
Kama ndala ayele ni ngosi yakamwamini lepi natiai iridhika kuishi ni muene, akolokundeka.
14 For the vnbeleeuing husband is sanctified to the wife, and the vnbeleeuing wife is sanctified to the husband, els were your children vncleane: but nowe are they holie.
Kwa ngosi yabelili kuamini itasika kwa ndabha ya imani ya ndala munu. Ni ndala yabelili kuamini itakasika kwa ndabha ya ngosi munu yaiamini. Viginevyo Bwana bhuinyu ngabhayelepi safi, lakini kwa kueli bhatakasiki.
15 But if the vnbeleeuing depart, let him depart: a brother or a sister is not in subiection in such things: but God hath called vs in peace.
Lakini mwenzi yaiaminilepi kabhokai na alotai. Kwa namna eyu, mhaja au ndhombho bhifungibhwalepi ni fiapo fya bhene. K'yara atukutili kwa amani.
16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt saue thine husband? Or what knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt saue thy wife?
Wimanyala bhuli kama ndala, huenda ilota kumwokola ngosibhu? Au wimanya bhuli kama ngosi, huenda ilotakumwola ndalabhu?
17 But as God hath distributed to euery man, as the Lord hath called euery one, so let him walke: and so ordaine I, in all Churches.
Khila mmonga tu aishi maisha kama Bwana akibhagabhili, khila mmonga kama K'yara akibhakutili bhene. Obho ni mwongozo wa nene kwa makanisa ghoha.
18 Is any man called being circumcised? let him not gather his vncircumcision: is any called vncircumcised? let him not be circumcised.
Ayele yataharibhu pakutibhu kuamini? Akolokujaribu kubhoka alama ya tohara ya muene.
19 Circumcision is nothing, and vncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandements of God.
Ayele yeywoha yhola yakutibhu mu imani ataharibhulepi wala yabelili kutahiribhwa kuyelepi matatizo. Kakujele ni matatizo ni kutii amri sa K'yara.
20 Let euery man abide in the same vocation wherein he was called.
Khila mmonga abakilai mu wito kayele pakutibhu ni K'yara kuamini.
21 Art thou called being a seruant? care not for it: but if yet thou maiest be free, vse it rather.
Wayele mtumwa wakati K'yara pakukutili? Ukolokujali kuhusu eyu. Lakini kama wibhuesya kuya huru, fuanyai naha.
22 For he that is called in the Lord, being. a seruant, is the Lords freeman: likewise also he that is called being free, is Christes seruant.
Kwa mmonga yaikutibhwa ni Bwana kama mtumwa ni munu huru mu Bwana. Kama khela, yayele huru pakutibhu kuamini ni mtumwa wa Kristu.
23 Yee are bought with a price: be not the seruants of men.
Mmali kugholibhwa kwa thamani, henu mkolokuya bhatumwa bhanadamu.
24 Brethren, let euery man, wherein hee was called, therein abide with God.
Mhaja ni ndhombho bhangu, mu maisha ghoghoha khila mmonga watete twakutibhwai kuamini, tubakilai khela.
25 Nowe concerning virgines, I haue no commandement of the Lord: but I giue mine aduise, as one that hath obtained mercie of the Lord to be faithfull.
Henu, bhala bhoa ambabho bhabhabelili kugega kamwe, nujihe ni amri kuhoma kwa Bwana. Lakini nikabhaphela maoni ghangu kama nikiyele kwa huruma sa Bwana, sasiaminika
26 I suppose then this to bee good for the present necessitie: I meane that it is good for a man so to be.
Henu nifikirila naha kwa ndabha ya usumbufu, ni kinofu ngosi abakilai kama kayele.
27 Art thou bounde vnto a wife? seeke not to be loosed: art thou loosed from a wife? seeke not a wife.
Ufungibhu kwa ndala ni kiapo kya ndobho? Kolokulonda uhuru kuhoma henu. Uyele huru kuhoma kwa ndala au ugegekibhu lepi? Ukolokulonda ndala.
28 But if thou takest a wife, thou sinnest not: and if a virgine marrie, shee sinneth not: neuerthelesse, such shall haue trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.
Lakini kama ugegeli ufanyili lepi dhambi Na kama ndala agegekibhu lepi agegekibhu, afanyililepi hambi. Bado bhala bhigegana bhikabha masumbufu gha aina mbalimbali. Ninene nilonda nibhaepusyai aghu.
29 And this I say, brethren, because the time is short, hereafter that both they which haue wiues, be as though they had none:
Lakini nikabhabhoka naha, mhaja ni ndhombho bhangu mudani ufupi. Tangu henu ni kuyendelela, bhla bhabhayele ni bhadala bhaishyai kama bhayehenabhu.
30 And they that weepe, as though they wept not: and they that reioyce, as though they reioyced not: and they that bye, as though they possessed not:
Bhoa bhabhayele ni huzuni bhakifuanyai kama bhayele bhayelepi ni huzuni, ni bhoa bhabhinuna khenu kyokyokhela, kama bhamiliki hee kyokyokhela.
31 And they that vse this worlde, as though they vsed it not: for the fashion of this worlde goeth away.
Na bhoa bhabhishughulika ni ulimwengu, bhayelai kama bhashughuliki lepi nabhu. Kwa ndabha mitindo ya dunia yifikira muishu bhwaki.
32 And I would haue you without care. The vnmaried careth for the things of the Lord, howe he may please the Lord.
Nilonda muyelai huru kwa masumbufu ghoa, ngosi yabelili kugega akajihusisha ni henu fafikamhusu Bwana, namna ya kumpendesya muene.
33 But hee that is maried, careth for the things of the world, how he may please his wife.
Lakini ngosi yagegili kajihusisha ni mambo gha dunia, namna ya kumpendesya mdalamunu,
34 There is difference also betweene a virgine and a wife: the vnmaried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy, both in body and in spirite: but shee that is maried, careth for the things of the worlde, howe shee may please her husband.
agawanyiki ndala yabelili kugegekibhwa au bikira kajihusisha ni fhenu kuhusu Bwana, namna ya kujitenga katika mbhelhe ni mu roho. Lakini ndala yagegekibhu kajihusisha ni fhenu dunia, namna ya kumfurahisya ngosi munu.
35 And this I speake for your owne commoditie, not to tangle you in a snare, but that yee follow that, which is honest, and that yee may cleaue fast vnto the Lord without separation.
Nijobha naha kwa faia ya yhomo mwayhomo, na mbhekalepi nteghu kwayhomo. Nijobha naha kwa khela ni haki, ili kwamba mwibhuesya kwibheka wakfu kwa Bwana bila kikwazo kyokyokhela.
36 But if any man thinke that it is vncomely for his virgine, if shee passe the flower of her age, and neede so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them be maried.
Lakini kama munu ifikirila ibhuesyalepi kuntendela kwa heshima mwana wali bha muene, kwa ndabha ya hisia sa muene sejele ni nghofho sana, lekai ageganai ni muene kama kaganili. Siyo dhambi.
37 Neuerthelesse, hee that standeth firme in his heart, that hee hath no neede, but hath power ouer his owne will, and hath so decreed in his heart, that hee will keepe his virgine, hee doeth well.
Lakini kama afuanyili maamuzi ghakutokugega, na kuyelepi haja ya lazima, na kama ibhuesya kutawala hamu ya muene ilokufuanya kinofu kama agegilepi.
38 So then hee that giueth her to mariage, doeth well, but he that giueth her not to mariage, doeth better.
Henu, ambayi akangega mwanamwali wa muene ifuanya kinofu, na yeywoha yhola ambayi ichagula kutokugega ilokufuanya kinofu zaidi.
39 The wife is bounde by the Lawe, as long as her husband liueth: but if her husband bee dead, shee is at libertie to marie with whome she will, onely in the Lord.
Ndala afungibhu ni ngosi munu wakati ayele hai. Lakini kama ndala kafwai, ayele huru kugegekibhwa ni yuywoha yhola yaaganili, lakini katika Bwana tu.
40 But shee is more blessed, if she so abide, in my iudgement: and I thinke that I haue also the Spirite of God.
Nakhona mu maamuzi ghayhoni ilotakuya ni furaha zaidi kama kaiishi kayele. Na nifikirila kuya ninene kabhele niyele ni Roho wa K'yara.
