Moral Disorders
1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.
Yakini habari imeenea ya kuwa kwenu kuna zinaa, na zinaa ya namna isiyokuwako hata katika Mataifa, kwamba mtu awe na mke wa babaye.
2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
Nanyi mwajivuna, wala hamkusikitika, ili kwamba aondolewe miongoni mwenu huyo aliyetenda jambo hilo.
3 For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,
Kwa maana kweli, nisipokuwapo kwa mwili, lakini nikiwapo kwa roho, mimi mwenyewe nimekwisha kumhukumu yeye aliyetenda jambo hilo, kana kwamba nikiwapo.
4 in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Katika jina la Bwana wetu Yesu, ninyi mkiwa mmekusanyika pamoja na roho yangu, pamoja na uweza wa Bwana wetu Yesu;
5 to deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
kumtolea Shetani mtu huyo, ili mwili uadhibiwe, ili na roho iokolewe katika siku ya Bwana Yesu.
6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
Kujisifu kwenu si kuzuri. Hamjui kwamba chachu kidogo hulichachusha donge zima?
7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
Basi, jisafisheni, mkatoe ile chachu ya kale, mpate kuwa donge jipya, kama vile mlivyo hamkutiwa chachu. Kwa maana Pasaka wetu amekwisha kutolewa kuwa sadaka, yaani, Kristo;
8 therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
basi na tuifanye karamu, si kwa chachu ya kale, wala kwa chachu ya uovu na ubaya, bali kwa yasiyochachika, ndio weupe wa moyo na kweli.
9 I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:
Naliwaandikia katika waraka wangu, kwamba msichangamane na wazinzi.
10 yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.
Sisemi msichangamane kabisa na wazinzi wa dunia hii, au na wenye kutamani, au na wanyang'anyi, au na wenye kuabudu sanamu; maana hapo ingewalazimu kutoka katika dunia.
11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
Lakini, mambo yalivyo, naliwaandikia kwamba msichangamane na mtu aitwaye ndugu, akiwa ni mzinzi au mwenye kutamani au mwenye kuabudu sanamu au mtukanaji au mlevi au mnyang'anyi; mtu wa namna hii msikubali hata kula naye.
12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
Maana yanihusu nini kuwahukumu wale walio nje? Ninyi hamwahukumu hao walio ndani?
13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
Lakini hao walio nje Mungu atawahukumu. Ninyi mwondoeni yule mbaya miongoni mwenu.
