1 Corinthians 11
1 Be imitators of me, even as I also am of Messiah.
Munikengame nenga, Kati na nenga ninkengamite Kristo.
2 Now I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in all things, and hold firm the traditions, even as I delivered them to you.
Nambeambe naasifu kwasababu ya yamunikombokii nenga katki makowe gati. Nabasifu kwa kuwa mugakamwi mapokeo kati yaniyaletike kwinu.
3 But I would have you know that the head of every man is Messiah, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Messiah is God.
Bai nataka mutange ya kuwa Kristo ni Ntwe wa kila nnalome, ni ywembe nnalome nga ntwe wa nnwawa, ni ya kuwa Nnongo nga ntwe wa Kristo.
4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonours his head.
Kila nnalome ywaloba au ywaboywa unabii mana atipunika ntwe wake atiuabisha ntwe wake.
5 But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered dishonours her head. For it is one and the same thing as if she were shaved.
Lakini kila nnwawa ywaloba au boywa unabii ali abile ni ntwe wake wazi atiuaibisha ntwe wake. Kwa mana ni sawa na kati atinyolewa.
6 For if a woman is not covered, let her hair also be cut off. But if it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut off or be shaved, let her be covered.
Mana itei kati nnwawa apunika kwaa ntwe wake, ni akatwe nywili yake ipangike kuwa mwipi. Mana paibile ni oni ya nnwawa kukata nywili yake au nyolewa, bai apunike ntwe wake.
7 For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.
Mana apalikwa kwaa nnalome kupunika ntwe wake, kwa kuwa ywembe mpwano na utukufu wa Nnongo. Lakini nwawani utukufu wa nnalome.
8 For man is not from woman, but woman from man;
Mana nnalome abokana kwaa ni nwawa. Ila nwawa abokana ni nnalome.
9 for man wasn’t created for the woman, but woman for the man.
Wala nnalome aumbilwa kwaa kwa ajili ya nnwawa. Ila nwawa aumbilwe kwa ajili ya nnalome.
10 For this cause the woman ought to have authority over her own head, because of the angels.
Ayee nga sababu nwawa apalikwa kuwa na ishara ya mamlaka nnani ya ntwe wake, kwa sababu ya malaika.
11 Nevertheless, neither is the woman independent of the man, nor the man independent of the woman, in the Lord.
Hata nyoo, katika Ngwana, nwawa abile kwaa kichake bila nnalome, au nnalome bila nwawa.
12 For as woman came from man, so a man also comes through a woman; but all things are from God.
Maana kati ya nwawa aboka kwa nnalome, nyonyonyo nnalome aboka kwa nwawa. Ni ilebe yote uboka kwa Nnongo.
13 Judge for yourselves. Is it appropriate that a woman pray to God unveiled?
Muhukumu mwabene: Je! ibile sahihi nnwawa annobe Nnongo hali ya ntwe wake ubile wazi?
14 Doesn’t even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonour to him?
Je hata asili kichake haiwafundishi kwaa ya kuwa nnalome abile ni nywili ndefu ni oni kwake?
15 But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her, for her hair is given to her for a covering.
Je asili aiwapundhi kwaa kuwa nwawa mana abile ni nywili ndefu ni utukufu kwake? Mana apeilwe nywili ndefu kati ngobo yake.
16 But if any man seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God’s assemblies.
Lakini mana itei mundu yoyote apala bishana nnani ya lee, twenga twabile kwaa ni namna yenge, wala likanisa lya Nnongo.
17 But in giving you this command I don’t praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse.
Mu'maagizo yaaisa, nenga niasifia kwaa. Mana mana mukusanywike, kwa faida kwaa ila kwa hasara.
18 For first of all, when you come together in the assembly, I hear that divisions exist amongst you, and I partly believe it.
Mana kwanza, niyowine ya kuwa mkutanapo mulikanisa, kwabile ni mgawanyiko kati yinu, ni kwa sehemu nendaaminiya.
19 For there also must be factions amongst you, that those who are approved may be revealed amongst you.
Kwa mana ni lazima ibe misuguano nkati yinu, ili kwamba balo balioyeketelwa bayowanike kwinu.
20 When therefore you assemble yourselves together, it is not the Lord’s supper that you eat.
Kwa mana mana mukutanike, cha mulyaa ni chakulya kwaa cha Ngwana.
21 For in your eating each one takes his own supper first. One is hungry, and another is drunken.
Mwenda lyaa, kila yumo ulyaa chakulya chake mwene kabla wenge balyaa kwaa. hata yolo abile ni njala, ni yolo ywalewite.
22 What, don’t you have houses to eat and to drink in? Or do you despise God’s assembly and put them to shame who don’t have enough? What shall I tell you? Shall I praise you? In this I don’t praise you.
Je ntopo nyumba ya kulyaa ni nywaa? Je mwalidharau likanisa lya Nnongo ni kubafedhehesha babile kwaa ni kilebe? Nilongele namani kwinu? Nibasifu? nalowa kwasifu kwaa kwa lee.
23 For I received from the Lord that which also I delivered to you, that the Lord Yeshua on the night in which he was betrayed took bread.
Mana natipokya boka kwa Ngwana chelo chanipeilwe ni mwenga ya kuwa Ngwana Yesu, kilo chelo paasalitilwe, atiutola nkate.
24 When he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “Take, eat. This is my body, which is broken for you. Do this in memory of me.”
Baada ya shukuru, atiutekwana ni kubaya, “Ayee nga yega yango, wabile kwa ajili yinu. Mupange nyaa kwa kunikombokya nenga.”
25 In the same way he also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me.”
Nga nyonyonyo atitola kikombe baada ya kulyaa, no baya, “Kikombe chelo nga agano lyayambe katika mwai bango. Mupange nyoo mara ganansima kila pa'munywea, kwa kunikombokya nenga.”
26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
Kwa kila muda pamulyaa nkate woo ni kuinywea ikombe, mwaitangaza kiwo sa Ngwana mpaka paaisile.
27 Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks the Lord’s cup in a way unworthy of the Lord will be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.
Kwa eyo, kila ywa alya nkate au nywea kikombe chelo cha Ngwana istahiliya kwaa, alowa ipatia hatia ya yega ni mwai ya Ngwana.
28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup.
Mundu kannaluya mwene kwanza, na nyoo alyee nkate, ni kuinywea kikombe.
29 For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy way eats and drinks judgement to himself if he doesn’t discern the Lord’s body.
Maana ywa lyaa ni nywaa bila kuutafsiri yega, ulyaa ni nywaa hukumu yake mwene.
30 For this cause many amongst you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep.
Ayee nga sababu ya bandu baingi nkati yinu ni atamwe ni dhaifu, ni baadhi yinu bawile.
31 For if we discerned ourselves, we wouldn’t be judged.
Lakini mana tuichunguza twabene twalowa hukumilwa kwaa.
32 But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.
Ila twahukumilwa ni Ngwana, twarudiwa, ili kana tuise hukumilwa pamope ni dunia.
33 Therefore, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.
Kwa eyo, ainja ni alombo bango, mana mukwambine mpate lyaa, musubiriane.
34 But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest your coming together be for judgement. The rest I will set in order whenever I come.
Mundu mana abile ni njala, ni alyee munyumba yake, ili mana mukwembine mpamo ibile kwaa kwa hukumu. Na kuhusu makowe yenge yamugaandikile, nalowa kuwaelezea mana niisile.
