1 Corinthians 15
1 And I make known to you, brothers, the good news that I proclaimed to you, which you also received, in which you also have stood,
Naizvozvo, hama, ndinokuzivisai evhangeri yandakakuparidzirai, yamagamuchirawo, neyamumire mairi;
2 through which you are also being saved, if you hold fast [to] the word—what I proclaimed as good news to you—unless you believed in vain.
uye yamunoponeswawo nayo, kana muchibatisisa inzwi reevhangeri randakaparidza kwamuri, kunze kwekuti makatenda pasina.
3 For I delivered to you as most important what I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Writings,
Nokuti ndakakumikidza kwamuri pakutanga izvo zvandakagamuchirawo, kuti Kristu wakafira zvivi zvedu, zvichienderana nemagwaro;
4 and that He was buried, and that He has risen on the third day according to the Writings,
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 afterward He appeared to above five hundred brothers at once, of whom the greater part remain until now, and some also fell asleep;
shure kweizvozvo wakaonekwa kuhama dzinopfuura mazana mashanu nguva imwe, vazhinji vavo vachiripo kusvikira ikozvino, asi vamwewo varara;
7 afterward 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 untimely birth—He also appeared to me,
Uye pakupedzisira kwevese akaonekwa neniwo, sekune wakazvarwa nguva isina kufanira.
9 for I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the Assembly of God,
Nokuti ini ndiri mudikisa wevaapositori, handifaniri kunzi muapositori, nokuti ndakashusha kereke yaMwari.
10 and by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace that [is] toward me did not come in vain, but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God that [is] 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, I or they, so we preach, and so you believed.
Naizvozvo, kana ndiri ini kana ivo, saizvozvo tinoparidza uye saizvozvo makatenda.
12 And if Christ is preached, that He has risen out of the dead, how [do] certain among you say 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 And if there is no resurrection of [the] dead, neither has Christ risen;
Asi dai pasina kumuka kwevakafa, naKristu haana kumutswa;
14 and if Christ has not risen, then our preaching [is] void, and your faith [is] also void,
uye kana Kristu asina kumutswa, naizvozvo kuparidza kwedu hakuna maturo, nerutendo rwenyuwo harwuna maturo.
15 and we are also found [to be] false witnesses of God, because we testified of God that He raised up the Christ, whom He did not raise if then dead persons do not rise;
Nesuwo tinowanikwa tiri zvapupu zvaMwari zvenhema, nokuti takapupura zvaMwari kuti wakamutsa Kristu iye waasina kumutsa, kana kuri kuti vakafa havamutswi.
16 for if dead persons do not rise, neither has Christ risen,
Nokuti dai vakafa vasingamutswi, Kristu haanawo kumutswa;
17 and if Christ has not risen, your faith is vain, you are yet in your sins;
uye dai Kristu asina kumutswa, rutendo rwenyu haruna maturo; muchiri muzvivi zvenyu.
18 then, also, those having fallen asleep in Christ perished;
Naizvozvo nevarere muna Kristu vaparara.
19 if we only have hope in Christ in this life, we are to be most pitied of all men.
Dai muupenyu huno tine tariro muna Kristu chete, tinonzwisa tsitsi kukunda vanhu vese.
20 And now, Christ has risen out of the dead—He became the first-fruits of those sleeping,
Asi ikozvinowo Kristu wakamutswa kubva kuvakafa, akava chibereko chekutanga chevarere.
21 for since through man [is] death, also through Man [is] a resurrection of the dead,
Nokuti sezvo nemunhu rufu rwakauya, kumuka kwevakafawo kwakauya nemunhu.
22 for even as in Adam all die, so also in the Christ all will be made alive,
Nokuti vese muna Adhamu sezvavanofa, saizvozvowo vese muna Kristu vachararamiswa.
23 and each in his proper order: Christ, a first-fruit, afterward those who are the Christ’s in His coming,
Asi umwe neumwe padzoro rake; Kristu chibereko chekutanga, tevere avo vari vaKristu pakuuya kwake,
24 then—the end, when He may deliver up the kingdom to God, even the Father, when He may have made all rule useless, and all authority and power.
kozouya kuguma, paachazokumikidza umambo kuna Mwari, ivo Baba, paachaparadza kutonga kwese neushe hwese nesimba.
25 For it is necessary for Him to reign until He may have put all the enemies under His feet.
Nokuti anofanira iye kutonga, kusvikira aisa vese vavengi pasi petsoka dzake.
26 The last enemy is done away with—death.
Muvengi wekupedzisira uchaparadzwa ndirwo rufu.
27 For He put all things under His feet, and when one may say that all things have been subjected, [it is] evident that He is excepted who subjected all things to 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 may be subjected to Him, then also the Son Himself will be subject to Him, who subjected to Him all things, that God may be the 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 Seeing what will they do who are immersed for the dead, if the dead do not rise at all? Why are they also immersed for the dead?
Ko, vanobhabhatidzirwa vakafa vachaita sei kana vakafa vasingatongomutswi? Vakagobhabhatidzirwa vakafa nemhaka yei?
30 Why do we also stand in peril every hour?
Nemhaka yei nesu tiri panjodzi awa rega-rega?
31 I die every day, by the glorying of you that I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Ndinofa zuva nezuva, ndinopika nokuzvikudza pamusoro penyu kwandinako muna Kristu Jesu Ishe wedu.
32 If I fought with wild beasts in Ephesus after the manner of a man, what [is] the advantage to me if the dead do not rise? Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!
Kana ndakarwa nenzira yevanhu nezvikara paEfeso, zvinondibatsirei, kana vakafa vasingamutswi? Ngatidye nekunwa, nokuti mangwana tinofa.
33 Do not be led astray; evil communications corrupt good manners;
Musanyengerwa; kushamwaridzana nevakaipa kunoodza tsika dzakanaka.
34 wake up, as is right, and do not sin; for some have an ignorance of God; I say [it] to you for shame.
Pengenukai nenzira yekururama uye musatadza, nokuti vamwe vane kusaziva Mwari; ndinotaura kuti muve nenyadzi.
35 But someone will say, “How do the dead rise?”
Asi umwe achati: Vakafa vanomutswa sei? Uye vanouya nemuviri wakaita sei?
36 Unwise! You—what you sow is not quickened except it may die;
Dununu, icho chaunodzvara iwe hachiitwi chipenyu kunze kwekuti chafa;
37 and that which you sow, you do not sow the body that will be, but a bare grain, it may be of wheat, or of someone of the others,
uye icho chaunodzvara, haudzvari muviri uchavapo, asi tsanga isina chinhu, kana yezviyo kana yezvimwe;
38 and God gives a body to it according as He willed, and its proper body to each of the seeds.
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 of fishes, and another of birds;
Nyama yese haisi nyama imwe; asi imwe inyama yevanhu, imwewo inyama yemhuka, imwewo yehove, imwewo yeshiri.
40 and [there are] heavenly bodies and earthly bodies; but one [is] the glory of the heavenly, and another that of the earthly;
Kune miviriwo yekudenga, nemiviri yenyika; asi kubwinya kweyekudenga ndekumwe, asi kweyenyika ndekumwe.
41 one glory of sun, and another glory of moon, and another glory of stars, for star differs from 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; there is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body;
Kunodzvarwa kuri muviri wechisikirwo, kunomutswa kuri muviri wemweya. Kune muviri wechisikirwo, uye kune muviri wemweya.
45 so also it has been written: “The first man Adam became a living creature,” the last Adam [is] for a life-giving spirit,
Zvakanyorwawo saizvozvo zvichinzi: Munhu wekutanga Adhamu wakaitwa munhu anorarama; Adhamu wekupedzisira mweya unoraramisa.
46 but that which is spiritual [is] not first, but that which [was] natural, afterward that which [is] spiritual.
Asi zvinotanga hazvisi zvemweya asi zvechisikirwo; tevere zvemweya.
47 The first man [is] out of the earth—earthly; the second Man [is] the LORD out of Heaven;
Munhu wekutanga wakabva panyika, ndewevhu; munhu wechipiri ndiIshe anobva kudenga.
48 as [is] the earthly, such [are] also the earthly; and as [is] the heavenly, such [are] also the heavenly;
Sewevhu, vakadarowo avo vevhu; uye sewekudenga, vakadarowo vekudenga.
49 and according as we bore the image of the earthly, we will also bear the image of the heavenly.
Uye sezvatakatakura chimiro chewevhu, tichatakurawo chimiro chewekudenga.
50 And this I say, brothers, that flesh and blood are not able to inherit the Kingdom of God, nor does the corruption inherit the incorruption.
Zvino ndinoreva izvi, hama, kuti nyama neropa hazvingagoni kugara nhaka yeushe hwaMwari; nokuora hakungagari nhaka yekusaora.
51 Behold, I tell you a secret: we indeed will not all sleep, but we will all be changed;
Tarirai, ndinokuudzai chakavanzika: Hatingavati tese, asi tichashandurwa tese;
52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, in the last trumpet, for it will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed;
nenguva diki-diki, mukuhwaira kweziso, pahwamanda yekupedzisira; nokuti hwamanda icharira, uye vakafa vachamutswa mukusaora, nesu tichashandurwa.
53 for it is necessary for this corruptible to put on incorruption, and this mortal to put on immortality;
Nokuti ichi chinoora chinofanira kupfeka kusaora, neichi chinofa chipfeke kusafa.
54 and when this corruptible may have put on incorruption, and this mortal may have put on immortality, then will be brought to pass the word that has been written: “Death was swallowed up—to 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 And the sting of death [is] sin, and the power of sin the Law;
Rumborera rwerufu chivi, nesimba rechivi murairo.
57 and to God—thanks, to Him who is giving us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ;
Zvino ngaavongwe Mwari anotipa kukunda naIshe wedu Jesu Kristu.
58 so that, my beloved brothers, become steadfast, unmovable, abounding in the work of the LORD at all times, knowing that your labor in the LORD is not vain.
Naizvozvo, hama dzangu dzinodikanwa, simbai, musingazungunuswi, nguva dzese muchiwedzerwa pabasa raIshe muchiziva kuti kubata kwenyu hakusi pasina muna Ishe.
