1 Korintoarrei 14

1 Çarreitzate chariteari, eta çareten dohain spiritual guthicioso, baina guehienic prophetiza deçaçuen.

Pursue love, and earnestly seek the spiritual things, and rather that you may prophesy,

2 Ecen lengoage arrotzez minço dena etzaye guiçoney minço, baina Iaincoari: ecen nehorc eztu ençuten, eta spirituz mysterioac erraiten ditu.

for he who is speaking in an [unknown] tongue—he does not speak to men, but to God, for no one listens, and he speaks secrets in spirit;

3 Baina prophetizatzen duena, guiçoney minço çaye edificationetan, eta exhortationetan, eta consolationetan.

and he who is prophesying to men speaks edification, and exhortation, and comfort;

4 Lengoage arrotzez minço denac, bere buruä edificatzen du: baina prophetizatzen duenac, Eliçá edificatzen du.

he who is speaking in an [unknown] tongue, edifies himself, and he who is prophesying, edifies the Assembly;

5 Nahi dut bada çuec gucioc lengoage diuersez minça çaitezten, baina nahiago prophetiza deçaçuen ecen handiago da prophetizatzen duena ecen ez lengoage diuersez minço dena, baldin interpretatzen ezpadu, Eliçác edificatione har deçançát.

and I wish you all to speak with tongues, and more that you may prophesy, for greater is he who is prophesying than he who is speaking with tongues, except one may interpret, that the Assembly may receive edification.

6 Bada orain, anayeác, baldin banathor çuetara lengoage arrotzez minço naicela, cer probetchu eguinen drauçuet: baldin minça ezpanaquiçue edo reuelationez, edo scientiaz, edo prophetiaz, edo doctrinaz?

And now, brothers, if I may come to you speaking tongues, what will I profit you, except I will speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophesying, or in teaching?

7 Eta gauça arima gabe soinu emaiten dutenec- ere edo den chirula, edo harpa, baldin cerbait differentia tonuz ezpademate, nolatan eçaguturen da chiruláz edo harpáz ioiten dena?

Yet the things without life giving sound—whether pipe or harp—if they may not give a difference in the sounds, how will be known that which is piped or that which is harped?

8 Ecen baldin soinu iaquin-bat eman ezpadeça trompettác, nor preparaturen da bataillara?

For also, if a trumpet may give an uncertain sound, who will prepare himself for battle?

9 Hala çuec-ere baldin adi daitequeen hitza mihiaz pronuntia ezpadeçaçue, nolatan adituren da erraiten dena? ecen airera minçaçale içanen çarete.

So also you, if you may not give speech easily understood through the tongue—how will that which is spoken be known? For you will be speaking to air.

10 Hambat (heltzen ohi den beçala) soinu mota da munduan, eta batre ezta muturic.

There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is unmeaning.

11 Beraz baldin ezpadaquit vozaren verthutea, içanen natzayó minço denari barbaro: eta minço çaitadana barbaro içanen çait.

If, then, I do not know the power of the voice, I will be a foreigner to him who is speaking, and he who is speaking is a foreigner to me;

12 Hala çuec-ere dohain spiritual guthicioso çaretenaz gueroz, çarreitzate hetan abundoso içateari Eliçaren edificationetan.

so you also, since you are earnestly desirous of spiritual gifts, seek for the building up of the Assembly that you may abound;

13 Halacotz lengoage arrotzez minço denac othoitz begui interpreta ahal deçançát.

for this reason he who is speaking in an [unknown] tongue—let him pray that he may interpret;

14 Ecen baldin lengoage arrotzez othoitz eguiten badut, ene spirituac othoitz eguiten du: baina ene adimendua fructu gabe da.

for if I pray in an [unknown] tongue, my spirit prays, and my understanding is unfruitful.

15 Cer bada? othoitz eguinen dut spirituz, baina othoitz eguinen dut adimenduz-ere: cantaturen dut spirituz, baina cantaturen dut adimenduz-ere.

What then is it? I will pray [in] the spirit, and I will also pray [with] understanding; I will sing psalms [in] the spirit, and I will also sing psalms [with] understanding;

16 Bercela, baldin benedica badeçac spirituz, ignorantaren lekua daducanac nolatán erranen du Amen hire remerciamenduaren gainera? ecen hic cer erraiten duan etzeaquic.

since, if you may bless in spirit, he who is filling the place of the commoner, how will he say the Amen at your giving of thanks, since he has not known what you say?

17 Ecen hic bay esquerrac emaiten dituc, baina bercea eztatec edificatzen.

For you, indeed, give thanks well, but the other is not built up!

18 Esquerrac emaiten drauzquiot neure Iaincoari, ceren çuec gucioc baino guehiago lengoagez minço bainaiz.

I give thanks to my God—more than you all with tongues speaking—

19 Baina Eliçán nahiago naiz borz hitz neure adimenduz minçatu, berceac-ere instrui ditzadançát, ecen ez hamar milla hitz lengoage arrotzez.

but I wish to speak five words in an assembly through my understanding, that I also may instruct others, rather than myriads of words in an [unknown] tongue.

20 Anayeác, etzaretela adimenduz haour: baina çareten malitiaz haour, eta adimenduz çareten guiçon eguinac.

Brothers, do not become children in the understanding, but in the evil be children, and in the understanding become perfect;

21 Leguean scribatua da, Halacotz berce lengoagetaco gendez, eta ezpain arrotzez minçaturen natzayo populu huni: eta are halatan eznaute ençunen, dio launac.

in the Law it has been written, that, “With other tongues and with other lips I will speak to this people, and even so they will not hear Me, says the LORD”;

22 Bada lengoage arrotzac dirade seignaletan, ez sinhesten duteney, baina infideley: baina prophetiá, ez infideley, baina sinhesten duteney.

so that the tongues are for a sign, not to the believing, but to the unbelieving; and the prophecy [is] not for the unbelieving, but for the believing.

23 Bada baldin Eliça gucia bil badadi batetara, eta guciac lengoage arrotzez minça ditecen, eta ignorantac, edo infidelac sar ditecen: eztuté erranen, ecen erhotzen çaretela?

If, therefore, the whole assembly may come together to the same place, and all may speak with tongues, and there may come in commoners or unbelievers, will they not say that you are mad?

24 Baina baldin guciéc prophetizatzen baduté, eta sar dadin cembeit infidel edo ignorant, vençutzen da guciéz, eta iugeatzen da guciéz.

And if all may prophesy, and anyone may come in, an unbeliever or commoner, he is convicted by all, he is discerned by all,

25 Eta halatan haren bihotzeco secretuac manifestatzen dirade: eta hala ahoz beheraturic adoraturen du Iaincoa, declaratzen duela ecen Iaincoa eguiazqui çuetan dela.

and so the secrets of his heart become visible, and so having fallen on [his] face, he will worship God, declaring that God really is among you.

26 Cer da bada anayeac? biltzen çareten oroz, çuetaric batbederac psalmu du, doctrina du, reuelatione du, lengoage du, interpretatione du, gauça guciac edificationetan eguin bitez.

What then is it, brothers? Whenever you may come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be for building up;

27 Ezpa lengoage arrotzez edocein minço bada, biguez edo gorena hirurez eguin bedi, eta aldizca: eta batec interpreta beça.

if anyone speaks an [unknown] tongue, by two, or at the most, by three, and in turn, and let one interpret;

28 Eta baldin interpretaçaleric ezpada, ichil bedi Eliçan lengoage arrotzez minço dena, eta bere buruäri minça bequió eta Iaincoari.

and if there may be no interpreter, let him be silent in an assembly, and let him speak to himself, and to God.

29 Eta biga edo hirur Propheta minça bitez, eta bercéc iugea beçate.

And prophets—let two or three speak, and let the others discern,

30 Eta baldin cerbait berce iarriric dagoen bati reuelatu içan baçayó, lehena ichil bedi.

and if [anything] may be revealed to another [who is] sitting, let the first be silent;

31 Ecen guciéc bata bercearen ondoan prophetiza ahal deçaqueçue, guciéc ikas deçatençát, eta guciac consola ditecençát.

for you are able, one by one, all to prophesy, that all may learn, and all may be exhorted,

32 Eta Prophetén spirituac Prophetén suiet dirade.

and the spiritual gift of prophets are subject to prophets,

33 Ecen Iaincoa ezta confusionezco Iainco, baina baquezco, sainduén Eliça gucietan agueri den beçala.

for God is not [a God] of tumult, but of peace, as in all the assemblies of the holy ones.

34 Çuen emazteac Elicetan ichilic beude: ecen etzaye permettitzen minçatzera: baina bire suiet, Legueac-ere erraiten duen beçala.

Your women, let them be silent in the assemblies, for it has not been permitted to them to speak, but to be subject, as the Law also says;

35 Eta baldin cerbait ikassi nahi baduté, etchean bere senharrac interroga bitzate: ecen deshonest da emaztén Eliçán minçatzea.

and if they wish to learn anything, let them question their own husbands at home, for it is a shame to women to speak in an assembly.

36 Ala çuetaric Iaincoaren hitza ilki içan da? ala çuetara beretara heldu içan da?

Did the word of God come forth from you? Or did it come to you alone?

37 Baldin cembeitec vste badu Propheta dela, edo spiritual, eçagut beça ecen scribatzen drauzquiçuedan gauçác Iaincoaren manamendu diradela.

If anyone thinks to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge the things that I write to you—that they are commands of the LORD;

38 Eta ignorant dena, ignorant biz.

and if anyone is ignorant—let him be ignorant;

39 Halacotz, anayeác, çareten prophetizatzera guthicioso, eta lengoage arrotzez minçatzea ezteçaçuela empatcha.

so that, brothers, earnestly desire to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak with tongues;

40 Baina gauça guciac bidezqui eta ordenançaz eguin bitez.

let all things be done decently and in order.
