1 Corinthians 11
1 [Follow my example], just like I [try to] follow Christ’s example.
Munivingililaghe une, ndavule une vule nikum'bingilila u Kilisite.
2 I praise you because you remember all the things [that I taught you] and because you follow the instructions that I gave you. You have done just like I told you to do.
Lino nikuvapala ulwakuva vule mukung'umbuka mu agha ghoni. Nikuvapaala ulwakuuva mughakolile amapokeo ndavule aletile kulyumue.
3 [Now], I want you to know that the one who has authority over [MTY] every man is Christ, and the ones who have authority over women are men (OR, their husbands), and the one who has authority over Christ is God.
Looli nilonda mukagule kuuti u Kilisite ghwe muutu ghwa mughosi ghweni, ghwoope umughosi ghwe muutu ghwa mumama, nakuuti u Nguluve ghwe muutu ghwa Kilisite.
4 [So] if any man [wears a covering over] his head when he prays or speaks a message God gave him, he disgraces himself [SYN].
Umughosi ghweni juno ikufunya nambe juno ihumia uvuvili iva afwalile ikofili ku muutu ikughupela isoni umutu ghwa mwene.
5 Also, if any woman does not wear a covering over her head when she prays or speaks a message that God gave her, she disgraces herself (OR, she dishonors her husband). That would be acting like [SIM] [women who are ashamed because] their heads have been shaved.
Looli umumama ghweni juno ikufunya nambe ihumia uvuvivi umuutu ghwa mwene angabuhile kufwala ikofili mhu muutu ikughupela isoni umuunhu ghwa mwene. Ulwakuva ghuling'ine kange heene abikilue.
6 So, if women do not wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them], they should let someone shave their heads [so that they will be ashamed]. But since women are ashamed if someone cuts their hair [short] or shaves off their hair, they should wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them].
Nave heene umumama na kwe kuuti na ifunika umuutu ghwa mwene, panaketue ilinyele lya mwene live lifupi. Ulwakuva nave se soni umu mama kuketa ilinyele lya mwene nambe kuketua, looli afunike umuutu ghwa mwene.
7 Men should not wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them], because they represent what God is like [MET] and they show how great God is. But women show how great men (OR, their husbands) are.
Looli nalunoghile umughosi kufunika umutu ghwa mwene, ulwakuva kye kihwani nu vwitike vwa Nguluve. looli umumama vwe vwitiki vwa mughosi.
8 [Remember that God intends that men have authority over women. We know that] because [God] did not make [the first] man, [Adam], from the [first] woman, [Eve]. Instead, he made that woman [from a bone that he took] from the man.
Ulwakuva umughosi nahumilanile nu mumama. Looli umumama alyahumile nu mughosi.
9 Also, [God] did not create [the first] man [to help] the woman. Instead, [he] created the woman [to help] the man.
Nambe mughosi nakavumbilue vwimila vwa mumama. Looli umumama alyavumbilue nu mughosi.
10 For that reason, women should wear something [to cover] their heads [as a symbol of their being under their husbands’] [MTY] authority. They should also [cover their heads] so that the angels [will see that and rejoice].
Pa uluo umumama anoghile kuva ni ndaghilo ija vutavulilua pa muutu ghwa mwene, vwimila vwa nyamola
11 However, remember that [even though God created the first] woman from [the first] man, all other men [have been born] from women. So men cannot be independent of women, nor can women be independent of men. But all things, [including men and women], come from God.
Pa uluo, mwa Mutwa, umumama napwale mwene nambe umughosi, nambe umumama.
Ulwakuva ndavule vulevule umumama alya humile kwa mughosi, vulevule alyahumile kwa mumama. Kange ifinu fyoni fihuma kwa Nguluve.
13 Consider this for yourselves: Is it proper for [RHQ] women to pray to God while they do not have coverings over their heads?
Highagha jumue: Vuli! sa kyang'haani umu mama ansume u Nguluve umuutu ghwa mwene ghuve pavuvalafu?
14 (Everyone senses that it is disgraceful for men to have long hair./Doesn’t everyone sense that it is disgraceful for men to have long hair?) [RHQ]
Vuli kange inyiho seene nasikuvavulanisia kuuti umughosi angave nilinyele ilitali soonibkwa mwene.
15 But it is very delightful if women have long hair, because [God] gave them long hair to be like a [beautiful] covering [for their heads].
Vuli ulwigho nalukuvavulanisia kuuti umumama avisaghe nhi linyele ilitali vwe vwimila vwitiki kwa mwene? Ulwakuva apelilue ilinyele lila live litali ndavule umwene ghwa mwene.
16 But whoever wants to argue [with me about my saying that women should have a covering over their heads when they pray or speak a message from God should consider the fact that] we [apostles] do not [permit] any other custom, and the [other] congregations of God do not have any other custom.
Looli umuunhu ghweni ilonda kukaning'ana vwimila vwa iili, usue natulinilinge nambe ing'ong'ano sa Nguluve.
17 Now I want to tell you [about some other things]. I do not praise you about them, because whenever you believers meet together, good [things do not happen]. Instead, bad things [happen].
Mu masio ghano ghavingilile, une nanikuva paala. Ulwakuva panomukong'ana, nakwekuuti lyambulilo looli luvumbulilo.
18 First of all, people have told me that when you gather together as a group [to worship God], you divide into groups [that are hostile to each other]. To some extent I believe that is true.
Ulwavutengulilo, nipulika kuuti pano mukong'ana mulukong'ano, kwefile ifighavo palyumue, na pakighavo nikwitika.
19 It seems that you must divide into [groups that despise each other] in order that it might be clear/evident which people among you [God] approves of!
Ulwakuuva lunoghile peluve misuguano mulyumue, ulwakuuti vala vano vavitikisie vikagulika kulyumue.
20 When you gather together, you [IRO] eat the meal [that you say is to remember the death of] the Lord [Jesus for us].
Ulwakuuva mutang'ana, kino mulia nakwekuuti kyakulia kya Mutwa.
21 But [what happens when] you eat is that each person eats his own meal before [he thinks about sharing his food with anyone else]. As a result, [when the meal is over], some people are [still] hungry and others are drunk! [So it is not a meal that honors the Lord].
Pano mulia, umuunhu ghweni ilisagha ikyakulia kya mwene jujuo pano avange navalile. Kange uju ghwope alininjala, nuju aghalile.
22 ([You act as though] you do not have your own houses in which you can eat and drink [whatever you want to]!/Do you not have your own houses in which you can eat and drink [whatever you want to]?) [RHQ] Do you not realize [RHQ] [that by acting selfishly in this way], it is God’s people whom you are despising, and it is the poor people [in your group] whom you are treating as though they were not important? What shall I say to you about that [RHQ]? Do [you expect] me to praise you [about what you do] [RHQ]? I certainly will not praise you!
Vuli nakwesile inyumba isakulia na kunywila? Vuli musyojuile ulukongano lwa Nguluve nakuvapela isoni vano navalinikinhu? Nijova kiki kulyumue? Nivapaale? Nanikuvapala ku iili!
23 The Lord taught me these things that I also taught you: During the night that Jesus was betrayed {[Judas] enabled [the enemies of] the Lord Jesus to seize him}, he took some bread.
Ulwakuva nikupile kuhuma kwa Mitwa kila kiino nivapelile umue kwa Mutwa Yesu, ikilo jila jino ye alekilue, akatolile un'kate.
24 After he thanked God for it, he broke it into pieces. [Then he gave it to his disciples] and said, “This bread [represents] [MET] (OR, is) my body, that [I am about to sacrifice] for you. Eat bread in this [way again and again] to remember my [offering myself as a sacrifice for you].”
Ye ahongisie, alyadenyile nakujova, “Ughu ghwe m'bili ghwango ghuno ghuli vwimila ghwinu. Muvombaghe ndiiki kukung'umbuka une.”
25 Similarly, after they ate their meal, he took a cup [MTY] [of wine]. He [thanked God for it. Then he gave it to his disciples], saying, “[The wine in] [MTY] this cup [represents] [MET] (OR, is) my blood [that will flow from my body] ([to put into effect/to establish]) the new agreement [that God is making with people]. Whenever you drink wine in this way, do it to remember that [my blood flowed for you].”
Vulevule akatoola ikikombe ye alile, na kujova, “Ikikombe iki lwe lufingo ulupia mu danda jango. Muvombaghe ndiiki kye kiinga kiila pano munyua, kukung'umbuka une.”
26 [Remember that] until the Lord [Jesus] returns [to the earth], whenever you eat the [bread that represents his body] and drink the wine [MTY] [that represents his blood], you are telling other people that he died [for you].
Unsiki ghweni pano mulia un'kate ughu na kukinywela ikikombe, mupalisia uvufue vwa Mutwa m'paka pano ilikwisa.
27 So, those who eat that bread and drink that wine [MTY] in a way that is not proper [for those who belong to the Lord] are guilty of [acting in a way that is contrary to what] our [Lord intended when he offered] his body [as a sacrifice] and his blood [flowed when he died].
Pa uluo, umuunhu ghweni juno ilia un'kate nambe juno inywila ikikombe ikio ikya Mutwa nainoghela, iva ajikavile ihatia ja m'bili nibdanda ja Mutwa.
28 Before any believer eats that bread and drinks that wine [MTY], he should think carefully about [what he is doing],
Umuunhu ajiposiaghe jujuo, kange alisaghe um'bili nakunyua ikikombe ikio.
29 because if anyone eats [the bread that represents Christ’s body] and drinks [the wine that represents his blood] without recognizing that all God’s [people should be united, God will] punish him [for doing that].
Ulwakuva juno ilia na kunyua nambe kusanganula um'bili, ilia na kunyua uvuhighi vwa mwene jujuo.
30 Many people in your group are weak and sick, and several have died [EUP] because of [the way they acted when they ate that bread and drank that wine].
Vwimila vwa ulu avaanhu viinga mulyumue ve vatamu kange muvamo mulumue vafwile.
31 If we would think carefully about what we [are doing], [God] would not judge [and punish] us [like that].
Looli tulolaghe jusue natuhighua.
32 But when the Lord judges [and punishes] us [for acting wrongly], he disciplines us [to correct us], in order that he will not [need to] punish us when he punishes [the people who do not trust in Christ] [MTY].
Looli pano tuhighua nu Mutwa, tugomokesevua, ulwakuuti na tungahighuaghe palikimo ni iisi.
33 So, my fellow believers, when you gather together to eat [food to remember the Lord’s dying for you], wait until everyone [has arrived so that you can find out who does not have enough food].
Pa uluo, vakuulu nava mwanilumbu vango, pano mutang'ana mulisaghe, mughulanaghe.
34 Those who are so hungry [that they cannot wait to eat until everyone else has arrived] should eat in their own homes [first], in order that when you gather together God will not judge [and punish them for] ([being inconsiderate of/not being concerned about]) [others]. And when I come [to Corinth] I will give you instructions about other matters [concerning the Lord’s Supper].
Umuunhu angave nhinjala, alisaghe ku nyumba ja mwene, ulwakuuti pano mjtang'ana palikimo namungahighanaghe. vwimila vwa agha aghange ghano mulembile, nikuvavula pano niliva nikwisa.
