1 Corinthians 1
1 Paul called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,
Kai Pawl, Cathut ngainae lahoi Jisuh Khrih e guncei lah kaawm e hoi ka nawngha Sosthenes ni,
2 To the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:
maimae Bawipa Jisuh Khrih min ka kaw e kho tangkuem kaawm e taminaw hoi, tami kathoung lah kaw lah kaawm e Kawrin kho e Khrih Jisuh thung thoungsak lah kaawm e, Cathut e kawhmoun ca na patawn awh. Bawipa teh ama ka kaw e naw puenghoi kaimae Bawipa lah ao.
3 Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Maimae Pa Cathut hoi Bawipa Jisuh Khrih koe e lungmanae hoi lungmawngnae teh nangmouh koe awm lawiseh.
4 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;
Khrih Jisuh lahoi na poe e Cathut e lungmanae dawkvah, nangmouh hanelah ka Cathut koe lunghawilawk pou ka dei.
5 That in every thing you are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge;
Nangmanaw teh hote Khrih lahoi lawk dei thainae, panue thainae, bangpueng dawk na bawi awh toe.
6 Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:
Khrih hoi kâkuen e lawkpanuesaknae teh nangmouh dawk a cak toe.
7 So that you come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Hatdawkvah, nangmouh teh Bawipa Jisuh Khrih bout a kamnuenae ngaihawi laihoi ring awh navah, poehno roeroe na toum a mahoeh.
8 Who shall also confirm you to the end, that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Maimae Bawipa Jisuh Khrih e hnin dawk nangmouh teh apinihai tounhoehe lah o nahan, Bawipa ni nangmouh teh apout totouh na caksak han.
9 God is faithful, by whom you were called to the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
Ama e Capa, Jisuh Khrih e huikonae thungvah, nangmouh na ka kaw e Cathut teh yuemkamcu lah ao.
10 Now I beseech you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
Hmaunawnghanaw Bawipa Jisuh Khrih min lahoi pahrennae kahei. Lungthin suetalah awm awh. Kâ kapeknae tawn awh hanh. Pouknae buet touh dawk kâracui awh.
11 For it has been declared to me of you, my brothers, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
Hmaunawnghanaw Khaloe imthung ni, pou a kâtaran awh a ti.
12 Now this I say, that every one of you says, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.
Nangmouh ni kai teh Pawl e vaica doeh, kai teh Apollos e vaica doeh, kai teh Piter e vaica doeh, Kai teh Khrih e vaica doeh na ti awh.
13 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
Khrih teh a kâkapek na maw. Pawl na ou nangmouh han thingpalam dawk ka dout. Nahoeh pawiteh Pawl e min dawk na ou baptisma na coe awh.
14 I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;
Crispus hoi Gaius hloilah apihai baptisma ka poe hoeh dawk Cathut koe ka lunghawi.
15 Lest any should say that I had baptized in my own name.
Hatdawkvah kai Pawl e min dawk baptisma ka coe e apihai awmhoeh.
16 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.
Stiven imthung baptisma ka poe, alouknaw baptisma ka poe vaimoe ka panuek hoeh.
17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
Baptisma poe hanlah Khrih ni na patoun hoeh. Kamthang kahawi pâpho hane doeh na patoun. Tami lungang thoumnae dawk nahoeh, telah pawiteh Khrih thingpalam hnosakthainae ayawmyin han doeh.
18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but to us which are saved it is the power of God.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, thingpalam kamthang kahawi heh kahmat naw hanelah teh pathunae lah doeh ao, rungngang lah kaawm e maimouh hane teh Cathut e bahu doeh.
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
Cakathoung ni, a lungkaangnaw e thoumnae ka raphoe pouh han. Pouknae ka rasang naw e pouknae hai ka pahnawt pouh han.
20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? (aiōn g165)
A lungkaangnaw teh nâne ao. Cakathutkungnaw teh nâne ao. Laidei kathoumnaw te nâne ao. Talaivan lungangnae teh Cathut ni pathunae lah a coung sak toung nahoehmaw. (aiōn g165)
21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
Talaivan lungangnae lahoi Cathut a panue thai awh hoeh dawkvah, Cathut ni pâpho e pathunae lawk lahoi ka yuem e naw rungngang hane a ngainae ao.
22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
Judahnaw ni mitnoutnae naw a hei awh. Griknaw ni lungangnae lahoi a tawng awh.
23 But we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness;
Maimouh teh thingpalam dawk pathout lah kaawm e Khrih e kamthang pâpho awh. Hete kamthang kahawi teh Judahnaw kamthuinae lah ao teh, Jentelnaw hanlah pathunae lah ao.
24 But to them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
Hatei, Judah thoseh, Griknaw thoseh, Cathut ni a kaw e taminaw hanelah, Khrih teh Cathut e bahu hoi lungangnae lah ao.
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
Cathut e pathunae teh taminaw lungangnae hlak a lunganghnawn rah. Cathut thayounnae teh, taminaw thasainae hlak a thasaihnawn.
26 For you see your calling, brothers, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
Nangmouh na kawnae pouk a haw. A kaw e thung dawk ka thoumthai kapap awm hoeh. Athakaawme kapap awm hoeh. Ka talue e kapap awm hoeh.
27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
Cathut ni ka thoumthai naw kaya sak nahan talaivan koe lah ka pathu naw a rawi. Athakaawme taminaw kaya sak nahan, talai koe lah tha kayoun naw a rawi.
28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, has God chosen, yes, and things which are not, to bring to nothing things that are:
Ka tangreng naw kaya sak nahan, talaivan koe lah ka roedeng e, khet kamcu hoeh e, bang ka cungkeihoehe naw Cathut ni a rawi.
29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.
Hatdawkvah Cathut hmalah apihai kâoup thai hoeh.
30 But of him are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made to us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
Nangmouh teh Cathut pawlawk dawk Khrih Jisuh thung na o awh. Khrih teh maimouh hanlah Cathut koehoi ka tho e maimae lungangnae, thoungnae, lannae hoi ratangnae lah o.
31 That, according as it is written, He that glories, let him glory in the Lord.
Hatdawkvah Cakathoung ni a dei patetlah ka kâoup e tami teh Bawipa dawk ma kâoup naseh.
