1 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,
An Paulo, moluongi mondo obed jaote mar Kristo Yesu kaluwore gi dwaro mar Nyasaye kaachiel kod owadwa Sostheno,
2 To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be holy, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:
Wandikonu un kanisa mar Nyasaye man Korintho, ma un joma osepwodhi ei Kristo Yesu, kendo moseluongi mondo obed jomaler kaachiel gi ji mamoko duto man kamoro amora maluongo nying Ruodhwa Yesu Kristo, ma en Ruodhgi kendo Ruodhwa:
3 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ngʼwono gi kwe moa kuom Nyasaye Wuonwa kod Ruoth Yesu Kristo obed kodu.
4 I always thank my God for you because of the grace He has given you in Christ Jesus.
Adwokone Nyasacha erokamano kinde duto kuomu, nikech ngʼwonone mosemiyou kuom Kristo Yesu.
5 For in Him you have been enriched in every way, in all speech and all knowledge,
Nimar kuome usebedo momew e yore duto kuom weche ma uwacho kod ngʼeyo ma un-go,
6 because our testimony about Christ was confirmed in you.
nikech nendwa kuom Kristo nosir e dieru.
7 Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly await the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Kuom mano, ok uremo mich moro amora mar Roho kuritogo odiechiengʼ ma Ruodhwa Yesu Kristo nofwenyree.
8 He will sustain you to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
En bende obiro ritou mondo ubed motegno nyaka giko, mondo omi ubed maonge bura chiengʼ mar Ruodhwa Yesu Kristo.
9 God, who has called you into fellowship with His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful.
Nyasaye moseluongou mondo ubedi e lalruok gi Wuode Yesu Kristo Ruodhwa en ja-adiera.
10 I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree together, so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be united in mind and conviction.
Jowetena, asayou e nying Ruodhwa Yesu Kristo, mondo un duto uwinjru ngʼato gi ngʼato. Kik pogruok moro amora bedi e kindu, to beduru kuriworu maonge pogruok, ka un gi dwaro achiel kod paro achiel.
11 My brothers, some from Chloe’s household have informed me that there are quarrels among you.
Jowetena, jood Kloe moko osekelona wach ni nitie dhawo e dieru.
12 What I mean is this: Individuals among you are saying, “I follow Paul,” “I follow Apollos,” “I follow Cephas,” or “I follow Christ.”
Tiend gima awacho chal kama: Ngʼat moro kuomu wacho niya, “An ngʼat Paulo,” to ngʼat machielo to wacho niya, “An ngʼat Apolo,” machielo bende oramo niya, “An ngʼat Kefa,” to moro wacho niya, “An ngʼat Kristo.”
13 Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptized into the name of Paul?
Kristo dipogre nyadi di? Paulo bende nogur e msalaba nikech un? Koso nuyudo batiso e nying Paulo?
14 I thank God that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius,
Adwoko erokamano ne Nyasaye ni ne ok abatiso ngʼato kuomu kata achiel makmana Krispo gi Gayo,
15 so no one can say that you were baptized into my name.
omiyo onge ngʼama nyalo wacho ni noyudo batiso e nyinga.
16 Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas; beyond that I do not remember if I baptized anyone else.
(Ee, jood Stefano bende ne abatiso, to ok apar ni ne abatiso ngʼat machielo mokalo mano.)
17 For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with words of wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
Nikech Kristo ne ok oora mondo abatis ji, to noora mondo ayal Injili, ok gi weche mamit mag rieko dhano, nono to dipo ka msalap Kristo obedo tekone.
18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
Wach msalaba en fuwo ni joma lal, to ni wan joma iwaro, en teko Nyasaye,
19 For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.”
nikech ondiki niya, “Abiro ketho rieko joma riek; kendo ngʼeyo mar joma riek abiro keyo nono.”
20 Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? (aiōn g165)
Ere ngʼama jarieko? Ere japuonj chik? Ere jatwak molony moloyo e pinyni? Donge Nyasaye osemiyo rieko mar pinyni odoko fuwo? (aiōn g165)
21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know Him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.
Nyasaye nochano gi riekone ni piny ok nyal ngʼeyo Kristo gi riekone owuon, to nochano mana ni kuom fuwo mar wach mwalandoni ema owarogo joma oyie.
22 Jews demand signs and Greeks search for wisdom,
Jo-Yahudi dwaro ni nyaka timnegi honni, to jo-Yunani to manyo rieko,
23 but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles,
to wan wayalo Kristo mane ogur, ma en kidi machwanyo jo-Yahudi kendo en fuwo ni joma ok jo-Yahudi.
24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
To kuom ji duto ma Nyasaye oseluongo, bed ni gin jo-Yahudi kata jo-Yunani, Kristo en teko Nyasaye kendo en rieko Nyasaye.
25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength.
Nikech fup Nyasaye riek moloyo rieko dhano, kendo nyawo mare otegno moloyo teko dhano.
26 Brothers, consider the time of your calling: Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were powerful; not many were of noble birth.
Jowetena, parieuru kaka nuchal kane Nyasaye oluongou. Ji mathoth kuomu ne ok joma riek, kipimou gi rieko dhano, bende ji mathoth kuomu ne ok joma rahuma kata joma oa e koth ruodhi.
27 But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.
To Nyasaye noyiero gima ofuwo mag piny mondo okuodgo wi joma riek. Nyasaye noyiero bende gik manyap mag piny mondo okuodgo wi joma rateke.
28 He chose the lowly and despised things of the world, and the things that are not, to nullify the things that are,
Nyasaye noyiero gik ma piny ochayo kendo manono mondo otiekgo gik ma jopiny kwano ni lich.
29 so that no one may boast in His presence.
Notimo kamano mondo kik ngʼato osungre e nyime.
30 It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God: our righteousness, holiness, and redemption.
En e chakruok mar ngimau ei Kristo Yesu, mane obedonwa rieko moa kuom Nyasaye, tiende ni tim makare, pwodhruok, kod resruok.
31 Therefore, as it is written: “Let him who boasts boast in the Lord.”
Emomiyo, mana kaka ondiki niya, “Ngʼat ma sungore mondo osungre kuom Jehova Nyasaye.”
