1 Corinthians 8
1 Now concerning those things that are sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up; but charity edifieth.
Inge, ke mwe mongo ma mwet uh kisakunang nu ke ma sruloala. Pwaye kas se ma mwet uh fahk mu, “Kut nukewa oasr etauk lasr.” Tusruktu, etauk mwe akfulatye insien mwet uh, a lungse mwe musaeak mwet uh.
2 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he hath not yet known as he ought to know.
Kutena mwet su nunku mu el etu sie ma, pwayena lah el soenna sun etu ma fal elan etu kac.
3 But if any any love God, the same is known by him.
Tusruktu mwet se su lungse God, God El etal.
4 But as for the meats that are sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.
Ouinge, ke mwe mongo ma itukyang nu ke ma sruloala: kut etu lah sie ma sruloala tia ma pwaye ac wangin moul la. Kut etu lah oasr God sefanna.
5 For although there be that are called gods, either in heaven or on earth (for there be gods many, and lords many).
Finne oasr ma pangpang “god uh,” in kusrao ku fin faclu, ac finne pukanten kain “god” ac “leum” ingan,
6 Yet to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
a nu sesr oasr God sefanna, Papa, su orala ma nukewa ac kacl kut moul. Ac oasr Leum sefanna, Jesus Christ, ke su ma nukewa orekla ac ke su kut moul.
7 But there is not knowledge in every one. For some until this present, with conscience of the idol: eat as a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
Tusruktu tia mwet nukewa etu ma inge. Kutu mwet uh arulana pahla ke ma sruloala, pwanang nwe misenge elos fin kang kain in mongo inge elos srakna nunku kac mu ma nun ma sruloala. Ke sripen lulalfongi lalos munas, elos nunku mu mongo inge ac akfohkfokyalos.
8 But meat doth not commend us to God. For neither, if we eat, shall we have the more; nor, if we eat not, shall we have the less.
Finne fuka, mwe mongo uh tia ku in akfototoye kut nu sin God. Kut fin tia kang kut tia kolukla kac; ku kut finne kang, kut tia pac wola kac.
9 But take heed lest perhaps this your liberty become a stumblingblock to the weak.
Tusruktu kowos in karinganang tuh sukosok lowos ke ma kowos oru inge in tia aktukulkulyelos su munas in lulalfongi lalos.
10 For if a man see him that hath knowledge sit at meat in the idol’s temple, shall not his conscience, being weak, be emboldened to eat those things which are sacrificed to idols?
Fin pa mwet se su nunak la munas in ouiya se inge el liye kom su pangpang oasr “etauk” yoro, ke kom mongo in tempul lun ma sruloala, ya ouiya se inge ac tia akkeyal elan kang pac mwe mongo ma kisayang nu ke ma sruloala?
11 And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ hath died?
Na ke sripen “etauk” lom an, mwet se su munas lulalfongi la el kunausyukla — a el inge mwet Christian se wiom su Christ el misa kacl.
12 Now when you sin thus against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.
Ac in lumah se inge, kowos orekma koluk lain Christ ke kowos oru ma koluk lain mwet Christian wiowos, ac sifil akmunasye nunak in elos su munas.
