1 Corinthians 6
1 Dare any of you, having, a matter against his brother, sue for judgment before the unrighteous, and not before the saints?
Nɔvinyewo, nu ka ta, ne masɔmasɔ aɖe dzɔ le mi kristotɔwo dome la, mietsɔa nya la yia fia alo dukɔa ƒe ʋɔnudrɔ̃ƒe be ame siwo mevɔa Mawu o la nadrɔ̃ na mi, esi wòle be miayi kristotɔwo boŋ gbɔ?
2 Or know ye not that, the saints, shall judge the world? And, if, by you, the world, is to be judged, unworthy are ye of the smallest judgment-seats?
Ɖe mienyae bena, gbe ɖeka la, mí kristotɔwoe aɖu fia ɖe xexea me blibo dzi, eye míadrɔ̃ ʋɔnu xexea me tɔwo o mahã? Nu ka ta miate ŋu adzra nya suewo ɖo le mia nɔewo dome o?
3 Know ye not that we shall judge, messengers? and not, then, matters of this life?
Alo mienya be gbe aɖe gbe la, mí kristotɔwoe adrɔ̃ ʋɔnu mawudɔla siwo le dziƒo gɔ̃ hã, ʋuu keke wòahayi agbe sia me nuwo nye ge oa?
4 If, then, for matters of this, life ye have judgment-seats, them who are of no account in the assembly, these, are ye seating thereupon?
Nu ka ta wòhiã be miatsɔ miaƒe nyawo ayi na dzimaxɔsetɔwo be woadrɔ̃ na mi?
5 With a view to shame you, am I speaking. So, is it possible that there is among you—not so much as one wise man, who shall be able to judge between his brethren, —
Mele nya siawo gblɔm kple susu be ŋu nakpe mi. Ɖe miele gbɔgblɔm be le miaƒe hame bliboa me la, ame aɖeke kura meli si si susu le, ale be wòate ŋu awɔ nya siawo ŋu dɔ na mi oa?
6 But, brother with brother, sueth for judgment, and that before unbelievers?
Ke nu ka ta wòle dzɔdzɔm le mia dome be kristotɔ nakplɔ nɔvia kristotɔ ayi ʋɔnu le dzimaxɔsetɔwo, ame siwo menya Mawu o la gbɔ?
7 Already, indeed, it is an utter defeat for you, that ye are having, law-suits, one with another. Wherefore are ye not rather taking wrong? Wherefore are ye not rather suffering yourselves to be defrauded?
Ale si mietsɔ nya ɖe mia nɔewo ŋu le ʋɔnu ɖeɖe dzaa fia be woɖu mia dzi xoxo. Nu ka wɔ miaɖe mɔ be woada vo ɖe mia ŋu boŋ o? Nu ka ta miaɖe mɔ be woaba mi boŋ o?
8 Nay! but, ye, are doing wrong, and defrauding, —and that [your] brethren.
Ewɔ nublanui ŋutɔ be miawo boŋue le nu vlowo wɔm. Miele amebaba dzi ɣe sia ɣi, eye esi gavlo wue nye be miewɔa nu siawo ɖe mia nɔvi kristotɔwo kekeake hã ŋu.
9 Or know ye not that, wrong-doers, shall not inherit, God’s kingdom? Be not deceiving yourselves: —neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites,
Ɖe mienyae be ame vɔ̃ɖiwo manyi mawufiaɖuƒe la ƒe dome oa? Migana woable mi o. Ahasiwɔlawo, trɔ̃subɔlawo, matrewɔlawo kple ŋutsu siwo dɔna kple ŋutsu bubuwo,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners—shall inherit, God’s kingdom.
fiafitɔwo kple ŋubiãlawo kple ahamulawo, ameŋunyagblɔlawo kple amebalawo la, womanyi mawufiaɖuƒe la ƒe dome o.
11 And, these things, were some of you; but ye bathed them away, —but ye were sanctified, but ye were justified, in the name of [our] Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God.
Tsã la, mia dometɔ aɖewo ƒe agbenɔnɔ sɔ pɛpɛpɛ kple ame baɖa siawo tɔ. Ke fifia la, woklɔ miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo katã ɖa le mia ŋu eye le nu si Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo kple Mawu ƒe Gbɔgbɔ la wɔ na mi ta la, Mawu xɔ mi miezu eƒe ame tɔxɛwo.
12 All things, unto me, are allowable, but, not all things, are profitable: all things, unto me, are allowable, but, I, will not be brought under authority by any.
Mia dometɔ aɖewo le gbɔgblɔm be, “Mɔɖeɖe li be míate ŋu awɔ nu sia nu faa” ne Aƒetɔ Yesu mede se tɔxɛ aɖeke ɖe wo ŋu o. Esia anya nɔ eme alea gake menye nu sia nu wɔwɔe nyona na ame o. Ame ate ŋu awɔ nu sia nu faa ne mɔɖeɖe li gake menyo be ame nazu kluvi na naneke kura o.
13 Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods; but, God, will set aside, both it and them. The body, however, is not for fornication, but, for the Lord, —and, the Lord, for the body.
Mia dometɔ aɖewo hã be ele eme be, “Mawu wɔ ƒodo na mí be míaɖu nu” gake menye esia ta wòle be ame naɖu nutsu o. Le nyateƒe me la, miganɔ bubum be nuɖuɖu le vevie akpa o elabena gbe ɖeka la, Mawu le nuɖuɖu kple míaƒe ƒodowo siaa ɖe ge ɖa. Medi be mianya nyuie hã be ahasiwɔwɔ menyo le mɔ aɖeke nu o. Menye esia ta wowɔ míaƒe ŋutilã sia ɖo o, ke boŋ ɖe wowɔe na Aƒetɔ la eye enye Aƒetɔ la ƒe didi vevie be ye ŋutɔ yeava nɔ miaƒe ŋutilãwo me.
14 God, moreover, hath both raised up, the Lord, and will raise, us, up from among [the dead] through his power.
Gbe ɖeka la, Mawu afɔ miaƒe ŋutilã ɖe tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome, abe ale si tututu wòtsɔ eƒe ŋusẽ fɔ Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo ɖe tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome ene.
15 Know ye not that, your bodies, are, members of Christ? Shall I, then, take away the members of the Christ and make them members of a harlot? Far be it!
Alo mienya be miaƒe ŋutilãwo nye Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo ƒe ŋutilã ƒe akpa vovovowo oa? Ne ele alea la, ekema ɖe wònyo be miatsɔ Kristo ƒe ŋutilã ade ha kple ahasiwɔla tɔa? Gbeɖe, mele be wòanɔ alea o!
16 Or know ye not that, he that joineth himself unto the harlot, is, one body? For, saith he, the two, shall become, one flesh;
Ɖe mienya be ame si de ha kple ahasitɔ aɖe la zu ŋutilã ɖeka kplii oa? Elabena wogblɔe be, “Wo ame evea woazu ŋutilã ɖeka.”
17 But, he that joineth himself unto the Lord, is, one Spirit.
Ke ame si tsɔ eɖokui lé ɖe Aƒetɔ la ŋu la, eya kplii wozu ɖeka le gbɔgbɔ me.
18 Flee fornication! Every sin, whatsoever a man shall commit, is, outside his body, but, he that committeth fornication, bringeth sin into his own body.
Le esia ta mele gbe tem ɖe edzi na mi be miadzudzɔ ahasiwɔwɔ elabena ahasiwɔwɔ nye nu vɔ̃ si ƒoa ɖi ame ƒe ŋutilã. Eya ta ne miewɔ nu vɔ̃ sia la, miawo ŋutɔwo koe akpe fu.
19 Or know ye not that, your body, is, a shrine of the Holy Spirit that is within you, which ye have from God? And ye are not your own; —
Nu ka ta va se ɖe fifia hã la, mienya kpɔ be miaƒe ŋutilã nye Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe si Mawu na mi la ƒe nɔƒe eye wòle mia me ɣe sia ɣi o mahã? Miawo ŋutɔ ƒe ŋutilãwo menye mia tɔ o,
20 For ye have been bought with a price! Therefore glorify God in your body.
elabena Mawu ƒle mi ho gã aɖee. Eya ta miwɔ miaƒe ŋutilã ƒe akpa sia akpa ŋu dɔ hena Mawu ƒe dodoɖedzi kple kafukafu elabena etɔwoe mienye.
