1 Corinthians 15
1 Now I declare to you, brothers, the Good News which I preached to you, which also you received, in which you also stand,
Woli enibhechukisha, emwe bhamula bhasu nemwe bhayala bhasu, ingulu yo musango gwo bhwana gunu nabhasimuliye, inu emwe mwailamiye no kuimeleguluko.
2 by which also you are saved, if you hold firmly the word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.
Ni ku musango gwo bhwana gunu mwakisibhwe, alabha mukagugwata omusango nimugumililako lwa kutyo nabhasimuliye emwe, atali ati mwekilisishe kutyo-ela.
3 For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Messiah died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
Alabha okwamba lwa kutyo nailamiye kunsonga lwa kutyo nailetele kwemwe ili: ati okulubhana na maandiko, Kristo afuye kulwa ingulu ye bhibhibhi bhyeswe,
4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,
okulubhana na maandiko nasikwa, na ati nasuluka ku lusiku lwa kasatu.
5 and that he appeared to Kefa, then to the twelve.
Na ati namusolomokela Kefa, okumala bhaliya ekumi na bhabhili.
6 Then he appeared to over five hundred brothers at once, most of whom remain until now, but some have also fallen asleep.
Okumala nabhasolomokela kwo mwanya gumwi emwe bhamula bhasu nemwe bhayala bhasu kukila ngendo magana gatanu. Abhafu bhebhwe bhachali bhamaanga, mbe nawe abhandi bhebhwe bhaongee ntilo.
7 Then he appeared to Jacob, then to all the emissaries,
Okumala namusolomokela Yakobho, okumala jintumwa jone.
8 and last of all, as to the child born at the wrong time, he appeared to me also.
Kubhutelo bhwa gone, nansolomokela anye, lwa kutyo omwana kebhulwa omwanya guchali kukinga (ndebhile).
9 For I am the least of the emissaries, who is not worthy to be called an emissary, because I persecuted the assembly of God.
Kulwo kubha anye nili mutoto ku Ntumwa. Niteile okubhilikilwa intumwa, kunsonga nalinyasishe likanisa lwa Nyamuanga.
10 But by the grace of God I am what I am. His grace which was given to me was not futile, but I worked more than all of them; yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
Mbe nawe kulwe chigongo cha Nyamuanga nilio lwa kutyo nili, ne chigongo chaye kwanye chaliga chitali cha kutyo-ela. Kukila ejo, nakolele kwa managa kukila bhone. Mbe nawe aliga atali anye, nawe ni chigongo cha Nyamuanga chinu chili munda yani.
11 Whether then it is I or they, so we proclaim, and so you believed.
Kulwejo alabha nanye amwi bhenene, mbe echisimula kutyo na echikilisha kutyo.
12 Now if Messiah is preached, that he has been raised from the dead, how do some amongst you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
Woli alabha Kristo asimuywe kuti unu asulukile mu bhafuye, ejibha atiki abhandi bhyemwe bhaike ati bhutalio bhusuluko bhwa bhafuye?
13 But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither has Messiah been raised.
Mbe nawe alabha bhutalio bhusuluko bhwa bhafuye, mbe nolwo Kristo one atasulukile.
14 If Messiah has not been raised, then our proclaiming is in vain and your faith also is in vain.
Na alabha Kristo atasulukile, kwibhyo obhusimusi bhweswe ni bhwa kutyo-ela ne likilisha lyemwe one ni lwa kutyo-ela.
15 Yes, we are also found false witnesses of God, because we testified about God that he raised up Messiah, whom he didn’t raise up if it is true that the dead are not raised.
Na echibhonekana kubha ati bhabhambasi bho lulimi okulubhana na Nyamuanga, kunsonga chamubhambaliye Nyamuanga mubhutasikene, okwaika ati amusuluye Kristo, kenu atamusuluye.
16 For if the dead aren’t raised, neither has Messiah been raised.
Alabha abhafuye bhatakusululwa, Yesu one atasuluywe.
17 If Messiah has not been raised, your faith is vain; you are still in your sins.
Na alabha Kristo atasuluywe, elikilisha lyemwe no lwa kutyo-ela na muchali mu bhibhibhi bhyemwe.
18 Then they also who are fallen asleep in Messiah have perished.
Nolwo kutyo bhaliya bhanu bhafuye mu Kristo one bhasimbagilisha.
19 If we have only hoped in Messiah in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.
Akabha kwo bhulame bhunu bhwenyele chili no bhuyali kwo mwanya gunu oguja mu Kristo, abhanu bhone, eswe chili bho kusasilwa kukila bhanu bhone.
20 But now Messiah has been raised from the dead. He became the first fruit of those who are asleep.
Mbe nawe woli Kristo asulukile okusoka mu bhafuye, amatwasho go kwamba agabhanu bhafuye.
21 For since death came by man, the resurrection of the dead also came by man.
Kulwo kubha olufu lwejile nilulabha ku munu, one okulabha ku munu obhusuliko bhwa abhafuye.
22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Messiah all will be made alive.
Kulwo kubha ku Adamu bhone abhafwa, nikwo kutyo one mu Kristo bhone abhakola kubha bhamaanga.
23 But each in his own order: Messiah the first fruits, then those who are Messiah’s at his coming.
Mbe nawe bhuli umwi mu bhikolwa bhyaye: Kristo, amatwasho go kwamba, no okumala bhalya bhanu bhali bha Kristo abhakolwa kubha bhaanga mu mwanya gwo kuja kwaye.
24 Then the end comes, when he will deliver up the Kingdom to God the Father, when he will have abolished all rule and all authority and power.
Niwo bhulibha obhutelo, anu Kristo alibhayana obhukama bhwa Nyamuanga Lata. Jinu anu niwo alisimagisha obhukama bhwone no bhutunge bhwone na amanaga.
25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.
Kulwo kubha ni bhusi-bhusi atunge Kukinga anu akateleo abhasoko bhaye bhona emwalo ye bhigele bhyaye.
26 The last enemy that will be abolished is death.
Omusoko wa kubhutelo okunyamulwa niwe lufu.
27 For, “He put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when he says, “All things are put in subjection”, it is evident that he is excepted who subjected all things to him.
Kulwo kubha “Ateyewo bhuli chinu emwalo ye bhigele bhyaye.” Mbe nawe ungwa niyaikwa “Ateyewo bhuli chinu,” Na abhwelu ati inu itakusangisha bhaliya bhanu bhateyewo ati bhuli chinu emwalo yaye omwene.
28 When all things have been subjected to him, then the Son will also himself be subjected to him who subjected all things to him, that God may be all in all.
Mu mwanya ebhinu bhyona bhiteywewo emwalo yaye, okumala omwana omwene katelwao emwalo yaye unu abhiteyeo ebhinu bhyona emwalo yaye. Gunu gulibhonekana koleleki ati Nyamuanga Lata abhe bhyona mu bhyona.
29 Or else what will they do who are immersed for the dead? If the dead aren’t raised at all, why then are they immersed for the dead?
Amwi one abhakola-ki bhaliya bhanu bhabhatijibhwe ingulu ya bhafuye? Alabha abhafuye bhatakusululwa chimi, kulwa -ki lindi abhabhatijibhwa ingulu yebhwe?
30 Why do we also stand in jeopardy every hour?
Na ni kulwa -ki chili mu ntambala bhuli mwanya?
31 I affirm, by the boasting in you which I have in Messiah Yeshua our Lord, I die daily.
Bhamula bhasu na bhayala bhasu, mu kwikuya kwani kwimwe, jinu nili najo mu Kristo Yesu Latabhugenyi weswe, enilasha kutya: enifwaga kusiku.
32 If I fought with animals at Ephesus for human purposes, what does it profit me? If the dead are not raised, then “let’s eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.”
Ejinsakilaki, mukulola kwa bhana-munu, akalabha nalwanile na jintyanyi jinsiku eyo Efeso, alabha abhafuye bhatasululwa? “Siga woli chilye na chinywe, kulwo kubha mutondo echifwa.”
33 Don’t be deceived! “Evil companionships corrupt good morals.”
Mwasiga kujigwa-jigwa: “Amaijo mabhibhi aganyamula Jintumwa je kisi.
34 Wake up righteously and don’t sin, for some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.
Mubhe no kwibhalilila! Nimulame mu bhulengelesi! Nimusige okugendelela okukola ebhibhibhi. Kulwo kubha abhandi bhemwe mutana bhumenyi bhwa Nyamuanga. Enaika kutya nibhaswashe emwe.
35 But someone will say, “How are the dead raised?” and, “With what kind of body do they come?”
Mbe nawe munu undi alyaika ati, “Abhafuye abhasululwa kutiki? Na bhene bhalija na mibhili gwa mbikaki?”
36 You foolish one, that which you yourself sow is not made alive unless it dies.
Awe uli mumumu muno! Chiliya chinu ouyamba chitakutula kukula atali chifwe okwamba.
37 That which you sow, you don’t sow the body that will be, but a bare grain, maybe of wheat, or of some other kind.
Na chiliya ouyamba gutali mubhili gunu ogukula, nawe ni njuma inu iletele omutenga. Eitula okubha ili ingano amwi chinu chindi.
38 But God gives it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.
Mbe nawe Nyamuanga kaiyana omubhili kutyo Kenda, na bhuli njuma mubhili gwayo gwenene.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.
Mbe emibhili jona jitakususana. Atali, guliwo omubhili gumwi ogwa abhanu, no omubhili ogundi ogwa jityanyi, no mubhili ogundi ogwa jinyonyi, no ogundi ingulu ya jinswi.
40 There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial differs from that of the terrestrial.
One jiliwo emibhili ja Mulwile ne mibhili ja muchalo. Mbe nawe likusho lye mibhili ja Mulwile ni ja mbika umwi na likusho lya muchalo one ni lindi.
41 There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.
Liliwo likusho limwi elya lisubha, na liliwo likusho elindi elyo kwesi, na liliwo likusho elindi elya jinjota. kulwo kubha injota eimwi itasikene na jinjota ejindi mwikusho.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown perishable; it is raised imperishable.
Nikwo kutyo one bhuli no bhusuluko bhwa bhafuye. Chinu echiyambwa echinyamuka, na chinu echimela chitakunyamuka.
43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power.
Chiyambilwe mu bhikolwa bhyo bhusimuka, nichimelela mwikusho. Nichiyambwa mu bhulenga, nichimelela mu managa.
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body and there is also a spiritual body.
Chiyambilwe mu mubhili gwo bhusimuka, nichimelela mu mubhili gas chinyamwoyo. Alabha guliwo omubhili gwo bhusimuka, guliwo omubhili gwo Mwoyo one.
45 So also it is written, “The first man Adam became a living soul.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
Kwibhyo one jandikilwe ati, “Omunu wo kwamba Adamu akolelwe omubhili gunu obhulaka.” Adamu wo bhutelo akolelwe omwoyo gunu ogusosha obhuanga.
46 However, that which is spiritual isn’t first, but that which is natural, then that which is spiritual.
Mbe nawe owe chinyamwoyo atejile okwamba atali owo bhusimuka, no kumala owe chinyamwoyo.
47 The first man is of the earth, made of dust. The second man is the Lord from heaven.
Omunu wo kwamba ni wa kuchalo, akolelwe kwo liteli lwa amwi. Omunu wa kabhili oyo asokele mu Mulwile.
48 As is the one made of dust, such are those who are also made of dust; and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
Lwa kutyo uliya akolelwe kwo liteli lwa ansi, nikwo kutyo one bhaliya bhanu bhakolelwe kwo liteli lwa ansi. Lwa kutyo omunu wa Mulwile ali, nikwo kutyo one bhaliya abha Mulwile.
49 As we have borne the image of those made of dust, let’s also bear the image of the heavenly.
Lwa kutyo chigegele echijejekanyo cho munu wo liteli lwa ansi, echigega one echijejekanyo cho munu wa Mulwile.
50 Now I say this, brothers, that flesh and blood can’t inherit God’s Kingdom; neither does the perishable inherit imperishable.
Woli enibhabhwila, bhamula bhasu na bhayala bhasu, ati omubhili na insagama bhitakutula okulya omwandu obhukama bhwa Nyamuanga. Nolwo obhwo kunyamuka okulya omwandu bhunyantanyamuka.
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery. We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed,
Lola! Enibhabhwila emwe imbisike ye chimali: chitalifwa bhona, nawe bhona chiliindulwa.
52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last shofar. For the shofar will sound and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed.
Chiliindulwa mu mwanya, kuliwo kutema-tema kwe liso, ku linyawegona elya kubhutelo. Kulwo kubha linyawegona lililila, na abhafuye bhalisuka bhatana mibhili jo kunyamula, na chiliindulwa.
53 For this perishable body must become imperishable, and this mortal must put on immortality.
Kawoli gunu ogwo kunyamuka ni bhusi-bhusi gufwale gunyatanyamuka, na gunu ogwo kufwa ni bhusi-bhusi gufwale gunyantafwa.
54 But when this perishable body will have become imperishable, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”
Mbe nawe mu mwanya gunu ogwo kunyamuka gukafwala bhunyantanyamuka, na gunu ogwo kufwa gukafwala bhunyantafwa, Niwo ilija inyaika inu yandikilwe ati, “olufu lwamilwa no bhuigi.”
“Olufu, obhuigi bhwawo bhulya- ki? Olufu, obhululu bhwawo bhulya- ki”” (Hadēs g86)
56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
Obhululu bhwo lufu ni chibhibhi, na managa ge chibhibhi ni chilagilo.
57 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
Mbe nawe isime ku Nyamuanga, unu kachiyana eswe obhuigi okulabha ku Latabhugenyi weswe Yesu Kristo!
58 Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
Kulwejo, abhendwa bhamula bhasu na bhayala bhasu, nimulume musimbagiliye na mwasiga kutingisika. Nsiku jona nulole emilimu ja Latabhugenyi, kunsonga mumenyele ati emilimu jemwe mu Latabhugenyi jitali ja kutyo- ela.
