< 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.
Ará, èmí kò sí le bá yín sọ̀rọ̀ bí àwọn tí í ṣe ti Ẹ̀mí, bí kò ṣe bí àwọn ti í ṣe ti ara, àní bí àwọn ọmọ ọwọ́ nínú Kristi.
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.
Wàrà ni mo ti fi bọ́ yín, kì í ṣe oúnjẹ; nítorí ẹ kò í tí le gbà á nísinsin yìí náà, ẹ kò í tí le gbà a.
3 For, whereas there is among you envying and contention, are you not carnal, and walk according to man?
Nítorí ẹ̀yin jẹ́ ti ara síbẹ̀. Nítorí, níwọ̀n bí owú jíjẹ àti ìjà ṣe wà láàrín ara yín, ẹ̀yin kò ha ṣe ti ayé bí? Ẹ̀yin kò ha ṣe bí ènìyàn lásán bí?
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?
Ǹjẹ́ ẹ̀yin kì í ṣe ènìyàn lásán bí? Níwọ́n ìgbà tí ẹ ba ń sọ pé, “Èmi ń tẹ̀lé Paulu,” àti ti ẹlòmíràn tún wí pé, “Èmi ń tẹ̀lé Apollo.”
5 The ministers of him whom you have believed; and to every one as the Lord hath given.
Jú gbogbo rẹ̀ lọ, kí ni Apollo ha jẹ́, kín ni Paulu sì jẹ́, àwọn ìránṣẹ́ lásán, nípasẹ̀ ẹni tí ẹ̀yin gbàgbọ́, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti fi fún olúkúlùkù.
6 I have planted, Apollo watered, but God gave the increase.
Èmi gbìn, Apollo ń bomirin; ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run ni ń mú ìbísí wá.
7 Therefore, neither he that planteth is any thing, nor he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
Ǹjẹ́ kì í ṣe ẹni tí ó ń gbìn nǹkan kan, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kì í ṣe ẹni tí ń bomirin; bí kò ṣe Ọlọ́run tí ó ń mú ìbísí wá.
8 Now he that planteth, and he that watereth, ate one. And every man shall receive his own reward, according to his own labour.
Ẹni tí ó ń gbìn àti ẹni tí ó ń bu omi rín ní ìrònú kan àti èrèdí kan, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan wa yóò gba èrè tirẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti ṣe é kárakára tó.
9 For we are God’s coadjutors: you are God’s husbandry; you are God’s building.
A ń bá Ọlọ́run ṣiṣẹ́ pọ̀ ni, ẹ̀yin pàápàá sì jẹ́ ọgbà ohun ọ̀gbìn fún Ọlọ́run, kì í ṣe fún wa, ilé Ọlọ́run ni yín, kì í ṣe ilé tiwa.
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.
Nípa oore-ọ̀fẹ́ tí Ọlọ́run tí fi fún mi, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọlọ́gbọ́n ọ̀mọ̀lé, mo ti fi ìpìlẹ̀ ilé lélẹ̀, ẹlòmíràn sì ń mọ lé e, ṣùgbọ́n kí olúkúlùkù kíyèsára bí yóò ṣe mọ ọ́n lé e.
11 For other foundation no man can lay, but that which is laid; which is Christ Jesus.
Nítorí kò sí ẹlòmíràn tó le fi ìpìlẹ̀ tòótọ́ mìíràn lélẹ̀ ju èyí tí a fi lélẹ̀ àní Jesu Kristi ni ìpìlẹ̀ náà.
12 Now if any man build upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble:
Ǹjẹ́ bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá fi wúrà, fàdákà, òkúta olówó-iyebiye, igi, koríko, àgékù koríko mọ lé orí ìpìlẹ̀ yìí.
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.
Iṣẹ́ olúkúlùkù ènìyàn yóò hàn, nítorí ọjọ́ náà yóò fi í hàn, nítorí pé nínú iná ni a ó ti fihàn, iná náà yóò sì dán irú iṣẹ́ èyí tí olúkúlùkù ṣe wò.
14 If any man’s work abide, which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
Bí iṣẹ́ tí ẹnikẹ́ni bá ṣe lórí rẹ̀ bá dúró, òun yóò sì gba èrè rẹ̀.
15 If any man’s work burn, he shall suffer loss; but he himself shall be saved, yet so as by fire.
Bí iṣẹ́ ẹnikẹ́ni bá jóná, òun yóò pàdánù, ṣùgbọ́n òun tìkára rẹ̀ ni a ó gbàlà, ṣùgbọ́n bí ìgbà tí ènìyàn bá la àárín iná kọjá.
16 Know you not, that you are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
Ṣé ẹ̀yin kò tilẹ̀ mọ̀ pé tẹmpili Ọlọ́run ni ẹ̀yin jẹ́? Àti pẹ̀lú pe Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run ń gbé inú yín?
17 But if any man violate the temple of God, him shall God destroy. For the temple of God is holy, which you are.
Bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá ba tẹmpili Ọlọ́run jẹ́, òun ni Ọlọ́run yóò parun; nítorí pé mímọ́ ni tẹmpili Ọlọ́run, èyí tí ẹ̀yin jẹ́.
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)
Kí ẹnikẹ́ni, má ṣe tan ara rẹ̀ jẹ mọ́. Bí ẹnikẹ́ni yín nínú ayé yìí ba rò pé òun gbọ́n, ẹ jẹ́ kí ó di òmùgọ̀ kí ó bá a le è gbọ́n. (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.
Nítorí ọgbọ́n ayé yìí jẹ́ òmùgọ̀ lọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ ọ́ nínú Ìwé Mímọ́ pé, “Ẹni ti tí ó mu àwọn ọlọ́gbọ́n nínú àrékérekè wọn”;
20 And again: The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i, “Olúwa mọ̀ èrò inú àwọn ọlọ́gbọ́n pé asán ní wọn.”
21 Let no man therefore glory in men.
Nítorí kí ẹnikẹ́ni má ṣe ṣògo nínú ènìyàn. Nítorí tí yín ni ohun gbogbo.
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;
Ìbá ṣe Paulu, tàbí Apollo, tàbí Kefa, tàbí ayé tàbí ìyè, tàbí ikú, tàbí ohun ìsinsin yìí, tàbí ohun ìgbà tí ń bọ̀; tiyín ni gbogbo wọn.
23 And you are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.
Ẹ̀yin sì ni ti Kristi; Kristi sì ni ti Ọlọ́run.
