1 Corinthians 8
1 And as touching things sacrificed vnto idols, wee knowe that wee all haue knowledge: knowledge puffeth vp, but loue edifieth.
Alò, konsènan bagay ki te bay kon sakrifis a zidòl yo, nou konnen ke nou tout gen konesans. Konesans fè moun awogan, men lanmou bay bon konprann.
2 Nowe, if any man thinke that hee knoweth any thing, hee knoweth nothing yet as hee ought to knowe.
Si yon moun sipoze ke li konnen yon bagay, li poko konnen jan li dwe konnen an.
3 But if any man loue God, the same is knowen of him.
Men si yon moun renmen Bondye, Bondye konnen li.
4 Concerning therefore the eating of things sacrificed vnto idoles, we knowe that an idole is nothing in the worlde, and that there is none other God but one.
Konsa, konsènan manje bagay ki te ofri kon sakrifis a zidòl yo, nou konnen ke pa gen anyen vrèman kon zidòl nan mond lan, e ke pa gen okenn Dye sof ke yon sèl, Bondye.
5 For though there bee that are called gods, whether in heauen, or in earth (as there be many gods, and many lords)
Paske, menmsi genyen sa ke yo rele dye yo, swa nan syèl la oubyen sou tè a, kòm anverite gen anpil dye ak anpil senyè,
6 Yet vnto vs there is but one God, which is that Father, of whome are all things, and we in him: and one Lord Iesus Christ, by whome are all things, and we by him.
malgre sa, nou pa gen sof ke yon Bondye Papa a. De Li menm tout bagay sòti, e nou pou Li, e yon Senyè, Jésus Kris. Pa Li menm tout bagay ye, e nou egziste pa Li.
7 But euery man hath not that knowledge: for many hauing conscience of the idole, vntill this houre, eate as a thing sacrificed vnto the idole, and so their conscience being weake, is defiled.
Sepandan, se pa tout moun ki gen konesans sa a. Men kèk moun, ki abitye avèk zidòl jiska prezan, manje manje kòmsi li te sakrifye a yon zidòl, e konsyans fèb pa yo a vin souye.
8 But meate maketh not vs acceptable to God, for neither if we eate, haue we the more: neither if we eate not, haue we the lesse.
Men se pamanje k ap rekòmande nou a Bondye. Nou p ap ni pi mal si nou pa manje, ni pi bon si nou manje.
9 But take heede lest by any meanes this power of yours be an occasion of falling, to them that are weake.
Men fè atansyon ke libète sa a pa vini, nan yon jan o yon lòt, yon wòch pou fè sila ki fèb yo chite.
10 For if any man see thee which hast knowledge, sit at table in the idoles temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weake, be boldened to eate those things which are sacrificed to idoles?
Paske si yon moun wè ou menm, ki gen konesans, k ap manje nan yon tanp zidòl, si konsyans li fèb, l ap ankouraje manje bagay ki sakrifye a zidòl yo?
11 And through thy knowledge shall the weake brother perish, for whome Christ died.
Alò, akoz konesans pa ou, sila ki fèb vin pèdi, frè pou sila Kris la te mouri an.
12 Nowe when ye sinne so against the brethren, and wound their weake conscience, ye sinne against Christ.
Konsa, nan peche kont frè nou yo k ap blese konsyans a sila ki fèb yo, nou peche kont Kris la.
