1 Corinthians 7
1 Now concerning the things about which you wrote to me: it is good for a man not to touch a woman.
Kusino mukandembile: ghamo masiki manofu umughosi nangaghonaghe nu n'dala ghwa mwene.
2 But, because of sexual immoralities, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.
Looli lino ulwakuva ingelo nyinga isavuvwafu umughosi ghwenu avisaghe nu muunhu ghwa mwene na ghweni un'dala avisaghe numughosi ghwa mwene.
3 Let the husband give his wife the affection owed her, and likewise also the wife her husband.
Umughosi anoghile pikum'pela umuunhu ghwa mwene luno lunoghile musavutolani vwa mwene, kange vulevule naju n'dala am'pelaghe luno lunoghile umughosi ghwamwene.
4 The wife doesn’t have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise also the husband doesn’t have authority over his own body, but the wife does.
Na ghwe n'dala juno alinuvutemi mum'biili ghwa mwene, ghwe mughosi. Kange vulevule najumughosi nalinnuvutemi vwa m'biili ghwa mwene, looli un'dala ghwa mwene ghwe alinavo
5 Don’t deprive one another, unless it is by consent for a season, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer, and may be together again, that Satan doesn’t tempt you because of your lack of self-control.
Namungafinyanaghe pano mughona palikimo, looli nave mupuling'line kunsiki ghuno ghuvikilue. Muvombaghe vulevule ulwakuuti mukave nsiki ghwa kufunya. Kange lunoghile pigomokilanila palikimo, ulwakuuti usetano aleke kukuvaghela kukiling'ania kyongo.
6 But this I say by way of concession, not of commandment.
Looli nijova ku isi soni nuvwavuke nakwekuuti lulaghilo.
7 Yet I wish that all men were like me. However, each man has his own gift from God, one of this kind, and another of that kind.
Ninoghelua umuunhu ghweni asava ndavule une nilivuo. Looli umuunhu ghweni alinikipelua kyamwene kuhuma kwa Nguluve. Uju alinikipelua iki, ghwope jula alinikipelua kila
8 But I say to the unmarried and to widows, it is good for them if they remain even as I am.
Kuvano navatolilue navafwile niiti ndiki, luvele luvanoghile vajighe kisila kutolua, ndavule nilivuo unhe.
9 But if they don’t have self-control, let them marry. For it’s better to marry than to burn with passion.
Looli nave pikusigha, luvanoghile pitolua. Ulwakuva luvanoghile avene kutolua ulwakuuti valeke kuva nuvunoghelua.
10 But to the married I command—not I, but the Lord—that the wife not leave her husband
Lino kuvano vitolua nikuvapela ululaghilo, na nene ghwe Mutwa, “Umumama nangalekanaghe nu mughosi ghwa mwene.”
11 (but if she departs, let her remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband not leave his wife.
Looli nave alekeng'ine kuhuma kwa mughosi, ajighaghe vulevule nangatoluaghe kange nambe lunoghile anoghile kupulingana kange numughosi ghwa mwene. Na “Jumughosi nangam'pelaghe italaka umuunhu ghwa mwene.”
12 But to the rest I—not the Lord—say, if any brother has an unbelieving wife, and she is content to live with him, let him not leave her.
Looli kuvano vasighile, niiti- unhe, nakwekuuti u Mutwa- kuuti nde unyalukolo ghweni alinumuunhu ghwa mwene juno na ikwitika kange akwiline oikukala naghwope nanoghilele pikumuleka.
13 The woman who has an unbelieving husband, and he is content to live with her, let her not leave her husband.
Nave umukimama naitike, nave akwiline kukukala naghwope nanga mulekaghe.
14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified in the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified in the husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are holy.
Kwa mughosi juno naitike ivalasivua vwimila vwa lwitiko lwa muunhu ghwa mwene. Na jumumama juno naitike ivalasivua vwimila vwa mughosi ghwa mwene juno itike. Nafyelusava avuo avanha viinhu vale vivanavanofu, looli kyang'haani vavalasivue.
15 Yet if the unbeliever departs, let there be separation. The brother or the sister is not under bondage in such cases, but God has called us in peace.
Looli umughanike juno namwiti anagavuke alutaghe. Pa uluo, unkulu nambe umwanilumbu naikungua ni njiigho savanave. Unguluve atukemelile tukalaghe nhu lutengano.
16 For how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?
Ukagula ndani nave ulin'dala pano ukum'pokagha umughosi ghwako? Nambe ghukagula ndani nave umughosi, nighani ghukum'poka umuunhu ghwako?
17 Only, as the Lord has distributed to each man, as God has called each, so let him walk. So I command in all the assemblies.
Umuunhu ghweni ikalaghe ndavule u Mutwa avaghavile, umuunhu ghweni ndavule u Nguluve avakemelile avene. Uvu vwe vulongosi vwango ku ng'ong'ano sooni.
18 Was anyone called having been circumcised? Let him not become uncircumcised. Has anyone been called in uncircumcision? Let him not be circumcised.
Pwale juno akadumulilue yeakemelilue mulwitiko? Alaghelagha kuvusia ikivalilo kya vudumulilua. Pwale jumonga juno akemelilue mu lwitiko nadumulilue? Nalunoghile kudumulua.
19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but what matters is keeping God’s commandments.
Pa uluo kuva adumulivue nambe juno nadumulivue kusita lumonga. Ikinyalumonga kwe kupulika indaghilo sa Nguluve.
20 Let each man stay in that calling in which he was called.
Umuunhu ghweni asighalaghe mung'emelo ndavule alyale ye ikemelua nu Nguluve pano ikwitika.
21 Were you called being a bondservant? Don’t let that bother you, but if you get an opportunity to become free, use it.
Ulyale nkami unsiki ghuno u Nguluve ikukukemela? Nungasaghaghe ku uluo. looli nave ghuvaghila kuva mwavuke, vombagha vulevule.
22 For he who was called in the Lord being a bondservant is the Lord’s free man. Likewise he who was called being free is Christ’s bondservant.
Kwajumo juno juno akemelilue nhu Mutwa hene nkami muunhu mwavuke mwa Mutwa. Ndavule, viino jumo juno mwavuke kukwitika ghwe nkami ghwa Kilisite.
23 You were bought with a price. Don’t become bondservants of men.
Mumalile kughulua ni kyuma kinga, pa uluo mulekaghe piiva vakami va vaanhu.
24 Brothers, let each man, in whatever condition he was called, stay in that condition with God.
Vakuulu numue va mwanilumbu vango, mu mikalile ghooni umuunhu ghweeni ndavule tulyakemelilue kukwitika, tujighaghe vulevule
25 Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment from the Lord, but I give my judgment as one who has obtained mercy from the Lord to be trustworthy.
Lino, vala voni vano navalile nambe, n'sila lulaghilo kuhuma kwa Mutwa. Looli nikuvapela imavilo sango ndavule nilivuo. Mulusungu lwa Mutwa luno lwa kyang'haani.
26 Therefore I think that because of the distress that is on us, it’s good for a man to remain as he is.
Looli, nisagha ndike ulwakuva sa lugasio, lunoghile umughosi ajighaghe ndavule alivuo.
27 Are you bound to a wife? Don’t seek to be freed. Are you free from a wife? Don’t seek a wife.
Ukungilue kwa muunhu ghwako nulufingo lwa vutolani? Nungalondaghe uvwavuke kuhuma ku uluo. Ulimwavuke kuhuma kwa muunhu ghwako nakuva nutolilue? Nungamulondaghe umu mama.
28 But if you marry, you have not sinned. If a virgin marries, she has not sinned. Yet such will have oppression in the flesh, and I want to spare you.
Looli nave nutolilue, nuvombile amakole. Vasighile vala vano navatolano viva ni ngasio jino silipapinga. Une nilonda nivaseghusie ku isio.
29 But I say this, brothers: the time is short. From now on, both those who have wives may be as though they had none;
Looli nijova ndiiki, vakuulubnumue valumbu vango, un'siki n'debe. Kuhumalino na kughendelela vaala vano valinava mama vikalaghe hweene valivuvule.
30 and those who weep, as though they didn’t weep; and those who rejoice, as though they didn’t rejoice; and those who buy, as though they didn’t possess;
Vooni vano vasasukunile vavisaghe hene vasila lusukunalo, vooni vano vakalile, nave navakakelile, na vooni vano vighula ikiinhu kyoni, nave navahalile kimonga.
31 and those who use the world, as not using it to the fullest. For the mode of this world passes away.
Vooni vano vitigha ni iisi, vave heene navakale vitigha na veene, ulwakuuva amatindo gha iisighifikila uvusililo vwa mwene.
32 But I desire to have you to be free from cares. He who is unmarried is concerned for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord;
Nilonda muve vavuke mu ngasio soni. umughosi juno natolile ivomba ifiinu fya Mutwa, ndavule inoghelua umwene.
33 but he who is married is concerned about the things of the world, how he may please his wife.
Looli umughosi juno atolile ikuvika mu fiinu fya mu iisi, ndavule lunoghile pikumovosia umunu ghwa mwene,
34 There is also a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares about the things of the world—how she may please her husband.
aghaving'ine. Umumama juno natolilue minja vuvule ikuvika nifiinu fya Mutwa, ndavule lunoghile ku lekeng'ana mum'biili na munhumbula. looli umumama juno atolilue ikuvika mu finhu fya mu iisi, ndavule lunoghile pikumovosia umughosi ghwa mwene.
35 This I say for your own benefit, not that I may ensnare you, but for that which is appropriate, and that you may attend to the Lord without distraction.
Nijova vulevule kuuti luvumbulilo lwinu jumue, nakwekuuti nivateghile ulutegho umue. Nijova vulevule ulwakuuva sa kyang'haani, ulwa kuuti lunoghile pikuvika vavombi kwa Mutwa kisila kikuvasi kyokyoni.
36 But if any man thinks that he is behaving inappropriately toward his virgin, if she is past the flower of her age, and if need so requires, let him do what he desires. He doesn’t sin. Let them marry.
Nave umuunhu isagha ikunua kukum'bombela nhu vWAoghopua uminja ghwa mwene, vwimila vwa masaghe gha mweene ghaliningufu kyongo, muleke atolanaghe na ghwope ndavule ighanile. Nakwekuuti nyivi.
37 But he who stands steadfast in his heart, having no urgency, but has power over his own will, and has determined in his own heart to keep his own virgin, does well.
Looli nave mulamuile ulwa kuleka kutola, nakwekuuti ikwumilisivua, nambe nave akagwile pikuvutema uvunoghelua vwa mwene, iva avombile vunofu nambe aleke pikuntola.
38 So then both he who gives his own virgin in marriage does well, and he who doesn’t give her in marriage does better.
Pa uluo, juno ikuntola uminja ghwa mwene ivomba vunofu, ghweni juno asalwile kuleka kutola iva avombile vunofu.
39 A wife is bound by law for as long as her husband lives; but if the husband is dead, she is free to be married to whomever she desires, only in the Lord.
Umumama akungilue numugosi ghwa mwene ye ajighe mwumi. Looli nave umughosi afwile, mwavuke kutolua kwa muunhu ghweni juno amughanile, looli mu mwa Mutwa mwene.
40 But she is happier if she stays as she is, in my judgment, and I think that I also have God’s Spirit.
Nikyale muvulamusi vwango, iva nulukelo kyongo nave ikale ndavule alivuo. Najune nisagha kuuti nili nu Mhepo ghwa Nguluve.
