1 Corinthians 6

1 Dare any of you, having a matter against his neighbor, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before the saints?

Ka kaha ranei tetahi o koutou, mehemea he tautohe tana ki tona hoa, ki te haere ki te whakawa i te aroaro o te hunga he, a kauaka ki te aroaro o te hunga tapu?

2 Don’t you know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

Kahore oti koutou i matau ma te hunga tapu e whakawa te ao? ki te riro ma koutou e whakawa te ao, e kore ranei koutou e tau hei whakarite i nga mea iti rawa?

3 Don’t you know that we will judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?

Kahore koutou i matau ko tatou hei whakawa mo nga anahera? kauaka oti nga mea o tenei ao?

4 If then you have to judge things pertaining to this life, do you set them to judge who are of no account in the assembly?

Na, ki te mea he whakawa a koutou ki nga mea o tenei ao, whakanohoia ai ranei e koutou ko te hunga iti o te hahi hei whakarite?

5 I say this to move you to shame. Isn’t there even one wise man among you who would be able to decide between his brothers?

I korero atu ai ahau i tenei kia whakama ai koutou. Koia ranei, kahore rawa e kitea kia kotahi he tangata whakaaro i roto i a koutou, hei whakarite ina whakawa ona teina i a raua?

6 But brother goes to law with brother, and that before unbelievers!

kei te whakawa ia te tuakana i te teina, a i te aroaro rawa o te hunga whakaponokore?

7 Therefore it is already altogether a defect in you that you have lawsuits one with another. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded?

Ehara, kua waiho ke tena hei he i roto i a koutou, ta koutou whakawa tetahi i tetahi. he aha te whakaririka kau ai ina ahatia koutou? he aha te tangohia noatia atu ai a koutou mea?

8 No, but you yourselves do wrong and defraud, and that against your brothers.

Ehara, ko koutou tonu kei te mahi i te he, a kei te tango pokanoa, ko o koutou teina ano te meatanga.

9 Or don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals,

Tena ranei kahore koutou i te matau, e kore te hunga whakahere he e whiwhi ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua? Kei tinihangatia koutou; e kore te hunga moepuku, te hunga karakia whakapakoko ranei, te hunga puremu, te hunga whakawahine, te hunga ranei e mea ana i te tane hei wahine,

10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortionists, will inherit God’s Kingdom.

Nga tangata tahae, nga tangata apo, nga haurangi, te hunga taunu, te hunga hao taonga ranei, e whiwhi ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua.

11 Some of you were such, but you were washed. You were sanctified. You were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit of our God.

He pera hoki etahi o koutou i mua; otira kua horoia koutou, kua whakatapua, kua whakatikaia i runga i te ingoa o te Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti, he meatanga na te Wairua o to tatou Atua.

12 “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are expedient. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be brought under the power of anything.

He tika nga mea katoa maku, otira e kore e pai katoa. he tika nga mea katoa maku, otira e kore ahau e pai ki tetahi mea hei rangatira moku.

13 “Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods,” but God will bring to nothing both it and them. But the body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

Ko nga kai mo te kopu, ko te kopu mo nga kai: heoi ka ngaro tenei i te Atua me era hoki. Ehara hoki te tinana i te mea mo te moepuku, engari ma te Ariki, ko te Ariki hoki hei Ariki mo te tinana:

14 Now God raised up the Lord, and will also raise us up by his power.

A na te Atua i ara ai te Ariki, waihoki mana tatou ka ara ai, ma tona kaha.

15 Don’t you know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? May it never be!

Kahore oti koutou i matau, he wahi o koutou tinana no te Karaiti? me tango koia e ahau nga wahi o te Karaiti, a ka mea i a ratou hei wahi mo te wahine kairau? Kahore rapea!

16 Or don’t you know that he who is joined to a prostitute is one body? For, “The two”, he says, “will become one flesh.”

A kahore ranei koutou i matau, ko te tangata e honoa ki te wahine kairau he tinana kotahi? e ki ana hoki ia, Hei kikokiko kotahi raua tokorua.

17 But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit.

Otiia ko te tangata e honoa ki te Ariki, kotahi tonu te wairua.

18 Flee sexual immorality! “Every sin that a man does is outside the body,” but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.

Rere atu ra i te moepuku. No waho o te tinana nga hara katoa e hara ai te tangata; ko te tangata ia e moepuku ana, e hara ana ia ki tona ake tinana.

19 Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,

A kahore ranei koutou i matau, he whare tapu to koutou tinana no te Wairua Tapu i roto na i a koutou, i homai nei e te Atua? e ehara i te mea no koutou ake koutou;

20 for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.

Kua oti hoki koutou te hoko ki te utu: whakakororiatia te Atua ki o koutou tinana.
