1 Corinthians 13

1 If I speak with the languages of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.

Ba n ya bi maadi bi nisaliba mabuoli Leni malekinba ya mabuoli kuli, ki naa pia mi buama, N baa tie nani ya kudi n mua bi nani ban pua ya longa ke ki tiendi ku fuugu yeni.

2 If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

Ba n ya bi baa mi mawangima paabu, ki go bandi yaala n duagi kuli, ki go baa mi bandima kuli, Baa n ya pia ya dandanli n baa fidi ki fuadi a juana, N ya pia mi buama mii tie pu.

3 If I give away all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing.

Baa n ya bi boagidi n piama kuli ki puni a luoda, Baa n ya bi baa teni n gbanandi Ban ju mi fatama, N yaa pia mi buama, li kan todi nni liba.

4 Love is patient and is kind. Love does not envy. Love does not brag, is not proud,

Mi buama pia li junli ki go hanbidi. Mi buama ki pia nunponli. Maa kpiagidi mi yuli, Maa gbengidi mi yuli mo.

5 does not behave itself inappropriately, does not seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil;

Maa pia boandi, Maa lingi yaala hani mi yuli po bebe, Maa fiindi mi pali, Maa kpaagi yaala n bia.

6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;

Maa mangidi mi pali leni yaala ki tiegi, Ama mi mangidi mi pali leni i moamoani.

7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things.

Mi buama tiendi sugili li bonla kuli po. Mi pia li dandanli leni mi suginma Leni li junli li bonla kuli nni.

8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will be done away with. Where there are various languages, they will cease. Where there is knowledge, it will be done away with.

Mi buama ki pia gbenma. Mi mawangima baa pendi, Mi malanma baa gbeni, Mi bandima moko baa pendi.

9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part;

Kelima moala ti bandima tie bonjenga bebe, Ti mawangima moko tie bonjenga bebe.

10 but when that which is complete has come, then that which is partial will be done away with.

Ama yaala n tie bonmunli ya ti cua ki bonjenga baa pendi.

11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child. Now that I have become a man, I have put away childish things.

Min den tie biga ya yogunu, N den maadi nani ki biga yeni, Ki bungi nani ki biga yeni, Ki go kpaagi nani ki biga yeni, Ama moala ke tua ja, N cedi li bonwaabonla.

12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, even as I was also fully known.

Moala ti laa likui nani tin nua ti nannanli ki maduubiga nni maama, Ke laa doagidi cain. Laa yogunu, ti baa le likuli ki nunga leni kiyaga. Moala, yin bani bonjega, Li bonmunli ya ti cua ya yogunu N baa bandi cain nani U tienu n bani cain maama,

13 But now faith, hope, and love remain—these three. The greatest of these is love.

Moala bonla taa n ye ki kan pendi, Lani n tie li dandanli, mi sugima leni mi buama, likuli siiga yaala n cie tie mi buama.
