1 Corinthians 3
1 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal. As unto little ones in Christ.
Ka püie, akcanga ta kei hin naw Ngmüimkhya takie vei ka pyen akba nami veia pyen lü am ng’yah. Kei cun naw khawmdek üng nami säng hamkia kya se Khritaw üng hnasena kba ni ka ning jah mtheh.
2 I gave you milk to drink, not meat; for you were not able as yet. But neither indeed are you now able; for you are yet carnal.
Kei naw angcang käh ning jah mbei lü cihtui ni ka ning jah tu. Isetiakyaküng nangmi cun angcang am ei thei ham u ki. Tuh pi am ei thei ham u ki.
3 For, whereas there is among you envying and contention, are you not carnal, and walk according to man?
Isetiakyaküng, hin khawmdeka khyange xüna kba nami xüngkiea kyase ni. Hmuhmsitnak ja ngvawknak nami ksunga vekia kyase, pumsa khyanga kya u lü, khawmdek khyanga vea mäiha nami ve hamkia am kyaki aw?
4 For while one saith, I indeed am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollo; are you not men? What then is Apollo, and what is Paul?
Nangmi üngka mat naw, “Pawluh ka läki” akce naw, “Apawluh ka läki” nami ti ta, khawmdek khyangea kba nami vecawhki am ni aw?
5 The ministers of him whom you have believed; and to every one as the Lord hath given.
U ni Apawluh ta? U ni Pawluh ta? Nami jum vai ja ning jah cehpüiki Pamhnama mpyaea kani kyaki. Bawipa a jah mtat khut bikia mat cima kani kyaki.
6 I have planted, Apollo watered, but God gave the increase.
Kei naw ka nglinki, Apawluh naw tui buiki, acunsepi, Pamhnam naw va dämsaki.
7 Therefore, neither he that planteth is any thing, nor he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
Acunakyase, dämsaki cun Pamhnam kya lü nglinki ja buiki naw i am khyaih khawh.
8 Now he that planteth, and he that watereth, ate one. And every man shall receive his own reward, according to his own labour.
Mci sawki ja tui buiki hngalangnak am ve, ani pawha kba Pamhnam naw jah thung be khai.
9 For we are God’s coadjutors: you are God’s husbandry; you are God’s building.
Nangmi cun Pamhnama laia kya lü keimie cun Pamhnama phäh atänga khut kami biki. Nangmi cun Pamhnama imloa pi nami kyaki.
10 According to the grace of God that is given to me, as a wise architect, I have laid the foundation; and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
Pamhnam naw a na pet bäkhäknak sumei lü sawngsa theikia bilawh akba tüneinak ka taki. A cuna khana akce naw sawngsaki. Lüpi nangmi mat cim naw ihawkba nami sawngsak cun sitih ua.
11 For other foundation no man can lay, but that which is laid; which is Christ Jesus.
Pamhnam naw tüneinak mat däka kyaki Jesuh Khritaw a tak pänga kya lü u naw pi tüneinak akce am ta yah.
12 Now if any man build upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble:
Avang naw xüi, ngui ja aphumah lung sumei lü tüneinaka khana sawngsa khaie. Akcee naw thing, mphyaw ja cangkpa sumei khaie.
13 Every man’s work shall be manifest; for the day of the Lord shall declare it, because it shall be revealed in fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work, of what sort it is.
Khyang mat cima bilawh cun Khritawa khawmhnüp naw mdan law lü mi hmu law khai. Acuna mhnüp üng khyang naküta bilawh cun mei naw kcet lü akcang cun mdan khai.
14 If any man’s work abide, which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
Tüneinaka khana jah sawngsak cun mei naw amceih ta sawngsaki naw ngkhyengnak yah khai.
15 If any man’s work burn, he shall suffer loss; but he himself shall be saved, yet so as by fire.
Na bilawh mei naw a uih päih ta amdang vai ni cunsepi mei üng a bilawh lätki cun küikyannak yah khai.
16 Know you not, that you are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
Nami k'uma Pamhnama Ngmüimkhya vekia kyase nangmi cun Pamhnama Templea nami kyaki ti cun nami ksingki.
17 But if any man violate the temple of God, him shall God destroy. For the temple of God is holy, which you are.
Pamhnama temple kpyehki a u pi, Pamhnam naw ani pi kpyeh hnga khai ni. Pamhnama temple cun ngcimcaihki kyase namimät kung pi acuna templea nami kyaki.
18 Let no man deceive himself: if any man among you seem to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. (aiōn g165)
Namimät käh mawngsak u. Nami ksunga mat naw hina khawmdek üng themkia a ngaih üng, a themnak law vaia ang ma se. (aiōn g165)
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written: I will catch the wise in their own craftiness.
Hina khawmdeka themnak cun Pamhnama ngaih a angnak ni. “Pamhnam naw khyang ktheme cun, ami mäta ksingnak am jah angsaki” tia a ng’yuki ni.
20 And again: The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
“Bawipa naw, khyang kthemea ngaihnak amdanga kyaki ti cun ksingki” tia pyenki.
21 Let no man therefore glory in men.
Acunakyase, aupi a bilawhnak thei üng käh awhcah kawm. A naküt hin Mhnama ka ni.
22 For all things are yours, whether it be Paul, or Apollo, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to some; for all are yours;
Pawluha pi kyase, Apawluha pi kyase, Pitaa pi kyase, khawmdeka pi kyase, xünnaka pi kyase, thihnaka pi kyase, ve k'umkia pi kyase, ve law khaia pi kyase, avan nami ka ni,
23 And you are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.
nangmi pi Khritawa ka kya lü, Khritaw pi Pamhnama ka ni.
