1 Korin 15
1 Nawkamyanawk, kahoih tamthanglok to nangcae khaeah ka taphong, ka thuih ih kahoih tamthanglok to na talawk o moe, nang doet o haih boeh;
NOW I make known unto you, brethren, the gospel which I have preached unto you, and which ye have received, in which also ye have stood fast;
2 kang thuih o ih kahoih to tamthanglok to kacakah na tapom o nahaeloe, to kahoih tamthanglok hoiah ni pahlong ah na oh o, to tih ai nahaeloe na tang o haih to azom pui ah ni om tih.
by which also ye are saved; if ye cleave to that word I have preached to you, except haply ye have believed in vain.
3 Ka talawk ih kahoih tamthanglok to kang thuih o hmaloe; Cabunawk mah thuih ih baktih toengah, Kri loe aicae zaehaih pongah duek;
For I delivered to you among the first things that which I also had received, that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures;
4 Anih loe aphum ah oh moe, Cabunawk mah thuih ih baktih toengah Anih loe ni thumto naah angthawk let:
and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
5 Anih to Kipha mah hnuk, to pacoengah kami hatlai hnetto mah doeh hnuk o:
and that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:
6 to pacoengah anih to cumvai pangato pong kapop nawkamyanawk mah nawnto hnuk o; nihcae thung ih thoemto kaminawk loe vaihi khoek to hing o vop, toe thoemto kaminawk loe duek o boeh.
afterwards he appeared before five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater number remain alive unto this hour, but some also are gone to rest.
7 To pacoengah Jakob mah Anih to hnuk, to pacoengah patoeh ih kaminawk boih mah hnuk o.
Afterwards he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
8 Hnukkhuem koekah loe atue pha ai naah tapen baktiah kaom, kai mah doeh Anih to ka hnuk.
And last of all he was seen also by me, who am but as an abortion.
9 Kai loe patoeh ih kaminawk thungah kathoeng koekah ka oh, Sithaw kricaabu ka pacaekthlaek pongah, kai loe patoeh ih kami, tiah kawk han doeh kam cuk ai.
For I am the least of the apostles, who am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
10 Toe Sithaw tahmenhaih rang hoiah vaihi ka oh baktih toengah ka oh thaih: ka nuiah ang paek ih tahmenhaih loe azom pui ai; toe kai loe nihcae boih pongah tok ka sak pop kue: to tiah om cadoeh kai mah ka sah ai, kai hoi nawnto kaom Sithaw tahmenhaih mah ni sak.
But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was given to me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all; yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
11 To pongah kai mah doeh, to tih ai boeh loe nihcae mah doeh lok to kang taphong o baktiah, nangcae mah doeh na tang o boeh.
Therefore whether I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
12 Kri loe duekhaih thung hoi vaihi angthawk boeh, tiah kang thuih o boeh, toe kawbangmaw nangcae thung ih thoemto kaminawk mah loe kadueh kami angthawk lethaih om ai, tiah thuih o?
But if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you, that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13 Kadueh kami angthawk lethaih om ai nahaeloe, Kri loe angthawk let ai, tih haih ih ni.
But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither is Christ risen:
14 Duekhaih thung hoi Kri angthawk let ai nahaeloe, aicae mah taphong ih lok loe azom pui ah om ueloe, nangcae tanghaih doeh azom pui ah ni om tih.
and if Christ be not risen, vain indeed is our preaching, and vain also your faith.
15 Ue, kadueh kami angthawk let ai nahaeloe, anih loe duekhaih thung hoi angthawk let ai to mah, Sithaw mah Kri to duekhaih thung hoi pathawk let boeh, tiah kang thuih o pongah, kaicae loe Sithaw hnukung amsawn ah ni ka om o tih.
Yea, and we also are found false witnesses for God; because we have testified on the behalf of God, that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if indeed the dead are not raised.
16 Kadueh kami angthawk let ai nahaeloe, Kri doeh angthawk let ai, tih haih ih ni.
For if the dead are not raised, neither is Christ risen:
17 Kri angthawk let ai nahaeloe, nangcae tanghaih loe azom pui ah ni oh; nangcae loe nangmacae zaehaih thungah ni na oh o vop.
and if Christ be not risen, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
18 To pacoengah Kri ah iip kaminawk doeh anghmaa angtaa o boeh.
Then also they who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
19 A tawnh o ih Kri oephaih loe hae long nuiah hing nathung han khue ah om nahaeloe, aicae loe kaminawk boih pongah kamtang koekah ni a oh o.
If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are more miserable than all other men.
20 Toe Kri loe vaihi duekhaih hoi angthawk let boeh pongah, anih loe iip kaminawk ih thingthai tangsuek ah oh.
But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first-fruit of those who have fallen asleep.
21 Kami rang hoiah duekhaih angzoh baktih toengah, kadueh angthawk lethaih doeh kami rang hoiah ni angzoh.
For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
22 Adam ah kami boih duek baktih toengah, Kri ah kami boih hing o toeng tih.
For as in Adam all are dead, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.
23 Toe Kri loe kathai tangsuek thingthai ah oh; Anih angzoh naah Kri ah kaom kaminawk loe, angmacae ih atue phak naah angthawk o let tih.
But every one in his own rank: Christ the first-fruit; afterwards those that are Christ’s at his appearing.
24 Anih mah ukhaih, sakthaihaih hoi thacakhaihnawk pazawk boih pacoengah, long boenghaih to om tih, to naah ukhaih prae to Ampa, Sithaw khaeah paek tih.
Then cometh the end, when he shall deliver up the kingdom to God, and the Father; when he shall have destroyed every dominion and every authority and power.
25 A misanawk a khok tlim ah suem boih ai karoek to Anih mah uk tih.
For he must reign, until he hath put all enemies under his feet.
26 Hnukkhuem koekah pazawk han ih misa loe duekhaih to ni.
The last enemy shall be destroyed, death.
27 Anih mah hmuennawk to a khok tlim ah suek boih boeh. Toe hmuennawk boih Anih tlim ah suek boeh, tiah Anih mah thuih naah, hmuennawk boih Anih khok tlim ah Suemkung, Anih thuih koehhaih ih na ai ni, tito amtueng.
For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith, that all things are put under him, it is evident that there is an exception of him, who subjected all things to him.
28 Hmuennawk boih Anih tlim ah suek pacoengah, Sithaw loe tih boih boih ih Sithaw ah oh thai hanah, Capa loe hmuennawk boih Anih tlim ah Suemkung khaeah, angmah hoi angmah to ang paek tih.
But when he shall have put all things under him, then also the Son himself shall be subjected to him who put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
29 Kadueh kami angthawk ai nahaeloe, kadueh kaminawk han tuinuem kaminawk loe kawbangmaw om o tih? Tipongah kadueh kaminawk hanah tui a nuem pae o loe?
Else what will they do who are baptised? for the dead, if wholly dead they rise no more. Why are they then baptised for the dead?
30 Tipongah aicae loe ni thokkruek zithaih hoiah kho a sak o loe?
and why do we also expose ourselves to danger every hour?
31 Kai loe ni thokkruek ka duek, aicae Angraeng Kri Jesu ah ka tawnh ih nangcae anghoehaih rang hoiah, ka thui thaih.
I solemnly declare by all the joy over you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
32 Kadueh kami angthawkhaih om ai nahaeloe, kaminawk ih khosakhaih baktiah, Efisa vangpui ah kasan moinawk hoi kang panhaih to tih atho maw om tih? Aicae loe khawnbangah a duek o han boeh pongah, Caak moe naek hanah ni a oh o boeh.
If after the manner of men I have fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, of what advantage would it be to me, if the dead did not rise again? shall we eat and drink; because to-morrow we die?
33 Minawk mah aling thaih koi kami ah om o hmah: kahoih ai kami hoi angkomhaih mah kahoih tuinuen to amrosak.
Be not deceived: evil conversations corrupt good manners.
34 Toenghaih bangah poek cai oh, zaehaih sah o hmah; thoemto kaminawk loe Sithaw panoekhaih tawn o ai: na zat o han ih ni hae lok hae kang thuih o.
Awake as the righteous, and sin not; for some have an ignorance of God: I speak this to your shame.
35 Toe kadueh kami loe kawbangmaw angthawk let tih? Kawbaktih taksa hoiah maw angthawk tih? tiah thoemto kaminawk mah dueng o tih.
But will any man say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
36 Kamthu nang, Na patit ih aanmu loe qong ai ah amprawk thai ai:
Thou fool! what thou sowest is not quickened except it die:
37 aanmu na patit naah, akung to na patii ai, cangti doeh, kalah aanmu doeh, amuu to ni na patit:
and that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body which shall be afterwards, but the bare grain, perhaps of wheat, or of some of the other seeds:
38 Sithaw mah ni a koeh baktiah akung ah angcoengsak, amu boih angmacae ih amuu baktih toengah akung ah angcoengsak.
but God giveth it a body as he pleaseth, and to each of the seeds its peculiar body.
39 Taksa loe anghmong o boih ai: kami taksa, moi taksa, tanga taksa, tavaa taksa, tiah oh o.
All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, and another flesh of cattle, and another of fishes, and another of birds.
40 Van taksa oh baktih toengah, long taksa doeh oh: toe van taksa lensawkhaih to lah moe, long taksa lensawkhaih doeh lah.
Also there are celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and that of the terrestrial another.
41 Ni lensawkhaih, khrah lensawkhaih hoi cakaehnawk lensawkhaih to anghmong ai: cakaeh maeto hoi maeto lensawkhaih doeh lah boih.
There is one glory of the sun; and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for star differeth from star in glory.
42 Kadueh kami angthawk lethaih doeh to tiah ni oh. Qong hanah patit ih oh baktih toengah, qong ai ah angthawkhaih doeh oh:
So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
43 patit naah pakoeh han om ai; angthawk naah loe lensawkhaih hoiah akoep: patit naah thazok; angthawk naah loe thacakhaih hoiah akoep:
it is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
44 patit naah long taksa ah oh; angthawk naah loe Muithla taksa ah oh. Long taksa oh baktih toengah, Muithla taksa doeh oh.
it is sown an animal body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is an animal body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 Hmaloe koek kami Adam loe hinghaih tawn kami ah oh, tiah tarik ih oh; hnukkhuem koek Adam loe hinghaih paekkung Muithla ah oh.
And so it is written, There was a first man Adam a living soul; a last Adam a quickening spirit.
46 Toe Muithla taksa to om hmaloe ai, long taksa ni oh hmaloe, to pacoengah ni Muithla taksa to oh vop.
But that which is spiritual was not first, but that which is animal; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47 Hmaloe koek kami loe long hoiah ni sak, to pongah long kami ah oh: hnetto haih kami loe van bang ih Angraeng ah oh.
The first man was of the earth, earthly; the second man was the Lord from heaven.
48 Long kaminawk loe, long kami baktiah oh o: van kaminawk loe, van kami baktiah oh o.
As is the earthly, so are they also that are earthly: and as is the heavenly, such also are they that are heavenly.
49 Aicae loe long hoi kaom krang kanghmong ah tapen baktih toengah, van hoi kaom krang hoiah doeh anghmong toeng tih.
And as we have borne the image of the earthly, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
50 Nawkamyanawk, taksa hoi athii mah Sithaw prae toep o thai mak ai; kaqong thaih mah kaqong thai ai to toep thai mak ai, tiah ka thuih.
But this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God: neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
51 Tahngai oh, loktamqu kang thuih o han; aicae loe a iip o boih mak ai, aicae loe,
Behold, I shew you a mystery; we shall not indeed all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 hnukkhuem koek mongkah to uengh naah, akra ai ah, mik pakhrip nathung amkhraih o boih tih: mongkah uengh naah kadueh kaminawk loe kaqong thai ai ah angthawk o tih, aicae loe amkhraih tih boeh.
in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 Hae kaqong thaih hmuen hae, kaqong thai ai hmuen mah khuk ueloe, hae kadueh thaih hmuen hae, kadueh thai ai hmuen mah khuk tih.
For that which is corruptible must put on incorruption, and that which is mortal must put on immortality.
54 Hae kaqong thaih hmuen hae, kaqong thai ai hmuen mah khuk moe, hae kadueh thaih hmuen hae, kadueh thai ai hmuen mah khuk naah loe, Pazawkhaih mah duekhaih to paaeh ving boeh, tiah tarik ih lok to akoep tih boeh.
So when that which is corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and that which is mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying which is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 Aw duekhaih, nang ih kasoe loe naah maw oh? Aw taprong na pazawkhaih loe naah maw oh? (Hadēs g86)
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? (Hadēs g86)
56 Zae loe duekhaih kasoe ah oh moe, kaalok loe zae thacakhaih ah oh.
The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
57 Toe aicae Angraeng Jesu Kri rang hoiah pazawkhaih paekung, Sithaw khaeah pakoehaih om nasoe.
But thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 To pongah, palung ih nawkamyanawk, poek amkhrai o hmah, kacakah angdoe oh. Angraeng ih tok to sah o poe ah, Angraeng toksak loe azom pui ai ni, tito panoek oh.
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, be stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
