Biblia Takatifu (Swahili): New Testament portions
1It is absolutely heard, that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as the like is not among the heathens; that one should have his father’s wife.
1Ziko habari za kuaminika kwamba kuna uzinzi miongoni mwenu; tena ni uzinzi mbaya ambao haujapata kuwako hata kati ya watu wasiomjua Mungu. Nimeambiwa eti mmoja wenu anaishi na mke wa baba yake!
2And you are puffed up; and have not rather mourned, that he might be taken away from among you, that hath done this deed.
2Mnawezaje kujivuna? Ingekuwa afadhali kwenu kuomboleza, na huyo aliyefanya kitu hicho aondolewe miongoni mwenu.
3I indeed, absent in body, but present in spirit, have already judged, as though I were present, him that hath so done,
3Nami, kwa upande wangu, ingawa kwa mwili niko mbali nanyi, hata hivyo kwa roho niko hapo pamoja nanyi: na hivyo, kama vile nipo hapo, nimekwisha mhukumu huyo aliyefanya jambo hilo la aibu.
4In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, you being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus;
4Wakati mnapokusanyika pamoja kwa jina la Bwana Yesu, nami nikiwa pamoja nanyi kwa roho, basi, kwa uwezo wa Bwana wetu Yesu,
5To deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
5mkabidhini mtu huyo kwa Shetani ili mwili wake uharibiwe na roho yake iweze kuokolewa Siku ile ya Bwana.
6Your glorying is not good. Know you not that a little leaven corrupteth the whole lump?
6Majivuno yenu hayafai! Je, hamjui kwamba chachu kidogo huchachusha donge lote la unga?
7Purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new paste, as you are unleavened. For Christ our pasch is sacrificed.
7Jitakaseni, mkatupe mbali chachu ya kale ili mpate kuwa donge jipya lisilotiwa chachu kama mnavyopaswa kuwa; maana, Kristo, Pasaka yetu, amekwisha tolewa tambiko.
8Therefore let us feast, not with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
8Basi, tufanye karamu hiyo si kwa chachu ile ya kale, chachu ya ubaya na uovu, bali kwa mkate usiotiwa chachu, mkate wa usafi na kweli.
9I wrote to you in an epistle, not to keep company with fornicators.
9Niliwaandikia katika barua yangu msishirikiane na wazinzi.
10I mean not with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or the extortioners, or the servers of idols; otherwise you must needs go out of this world.
10Ukweli ni kwamba sikuwa na maana ya watu wote duniani walio wazinzi, wachoyo, walaghai na wenye kuabudu sanamu. Maana, ili kuwaepa hao wote ingewalazimu ninyi kuihama dunia hii kabisa!
11But now I have written to you, not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother, be a fornicator, or covetous, or a server of idols, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner: with such a one, not so much as to eat.
11Nilichoandika ni hiki: msishirikiane na ndugu Mkristo aliye mzinzi, mchoyo, mwenye kuabudu sanamu, mchongezi mlevi na mlaghai. Mtu wa namna hiyo, hata kula msile naye.
12For what have I to do to judge them that are without? Do not you judge them that are within?
12Je, ni shauri langu kuwahukumu watu walio nje? Hao Mungu atawahukumu. Je, ninyi hampaswi kuwahukumu wale walio katika jamii yenu ninyi wenyewe?
13For them that are without, God will judge. Put away the evil one from among yourselves.
13Mfukuzeni mbali nanyi huyo mwovu!
