1 Corinthians 10

1 And I do not wish you to be ignorant, brothers, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,

Ka püie, Mosia hnu läkie mi pupae ia kya khawikie ti cun nami süm vai hlüei veng. Amimi cun khawngmei naw jah ksung lü Mpanglaisen pi phyawn lü khekhamkie ni.

2 and all were immersed into Moses in the cloud, and in the sea;

Mosia hnu ami läka kba ami van khawngmei ja tui üng baptican khamkie.

3 and all ate the same spiritual food,

Avan naw Ngmüimkhya ei atänga ei u lü,

4 and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they were drinking of a spiritual rock following them, and the rock was the Christ;

ami van naw Ngmüimkhya tui awki he ni; jah ngkhahpüikia Ngmüimkhya Lung üngka tüi awki he; acuna Lung cun Khritaw amät kung ni.

5 but in the most of them God was not well pleased, for they were strewn in the wilderness,

Acunsepi, avangea khana Pamhnam am je se, khawkhyawng khawa thi u lü ami pumsa khyük päihki.

6 and those things became types of us, for our not passionately desiring evil things, as also these desired.

Ahine hin mimi phäha msuimcäpnak ni, amimia bilawha kba am dawki käh bilawh vaia sitih jah peki,

7 Neither become idolaters, as certain of them, as it has been written: “The people sat down to eat and to drink, and stood up to play”;

juktuh ami sawhkhaha mäiha juktuh käh sawhkhah u. “Hüipawmnak ja eiawknaka pawia khyange ngawki he” tilü Cangcim naw pyenki.

8 neither may we commit whoredom, as certain of them committed whoredom, and there fell in one day twenty-three thousand;

Avang he ami mkhyea kba käh mi mkhye khaie, mhnüp mat üng khyang tawng nghngih jah thawng kthum ami thiha mäiha käh mi ve vai u.

9 neither may we tempt the Christ, as also certain of them tempted, and perished by the serpents;

Avang naw Khritaw cam u se, kphyu naw jah hnimki, cunakyase Bawipa käh mi cam vai u.

10 neither murmur, as also some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer.

Avang he putcit u se thihnaka Ngsä naw a jah hnima mäiha käh mi ve vai u.

11 And all these things happened to those persons as types, and they were written for our admonition, to whom the end of the ages came, (aiōn g165)

Ahine cun akceea phäha msuimcäpnak vaia phäha ami veia kya lawki, cunsepi mimi phäha cingnak vaia ng’yuki ni. Mimi cun apäihnak law hlü hnüha kcün üng mi vekie ni. (aiōn g165)

12 so that he who is thinking to stand—let him observe, lest he fall.

Khängkia nami ngdüikia nami ngaih üng käh nami kyuk vaia mcei ua.

13 No temptation has taken you—except that of man; and God is faithful, who will not permit you to be tempted above what you are able, but He will make, with the temptation, also the outlet, for your being able to bear [it].

Nghngicima khamei thei hlawhlepnak ni nami khamei ta. Pamhnam a khyü mäki kyase, am nami khamei thei vaia hlawhlepnak nami khana am pha lawsak. Nami khameinak thei vaia hlawhlepnak üngka naw lätnak vaia lam pi ning pawh pet khai.

14 For this reason, my beloved, flee from the idolatry;

Acunakyase, ka mhlänake aw, juktuh sawhkhahnak cun jeih ua.

15 as to wise men I speak—judge what I say.

Khyang kthemea jah mtheha kba ning jah mtheh veng, i ka pyen ti cun ksing ua.

16 The cup of the blessing that we bless—is it not the fellowship of the blood of the Christ? The bread that we break—is it not the fellowship of the body of the Christ?

Bawipa Müeinaka Pamhnama veia jenak mi mtheh üng mi summangeia khawt: acuna khawt mi awk üng, Khritawa thisen mi awyümki, muk mi bo mi ei üng Khritawa pumsa mi yümeiki.

17 Because one bread, one body, are we the many—for we all partake of the one bread.

Khyang khawjaha mi kyase pi, muk mat mi eiyüm üng pumsa mata mi kya lawki.

18 See Israel according to the flesh! Are those not eating the sacrifices in the fellowship of the altar?

Isarel khyange jah teng süm u; Pamhnam üng ami peta ngkengnaka sa eikie cun naw phyawnkunga bilo yümkiea kyaki ni.

19 What do I say then? That an idol is anything? Or that a sacrifice offered to an idol is anything?

Juktuha veia peta eiawk ja juktuh cun iyawa kya ve ka tiki aw?

20 [No, ] but that the things that the nations sacrifice—they sacrifice to demons and not to God; and I do not wish you to come into the fellowship of the demons.

Ka! juktuha veia peta ngkengtainak cun Pamhnama veia peta am kya lü, khawyaiea veia peta ni akya ve, ka tiki ni. Khawyaia püipawa nami kya vai am hlüei veng.

21 You are not able to drink the cup of the LORD and the cup of demons; you are not able to partake of the table of the LORD and of the table of demons;

Bawipa khawt ja khawyaia khawt atänga am aw thei u ti; Bawipa kbe ja khawyaia kbe atänga am jah ei thei u ki.

22 do we arouse the LORD to jealousy? Are we stronger than He?

Am ani üng, Bawipa mlung mi setsak khai aw? Mimi hin Bawipa kthaka mi kyan bawki aw?

23 All things are lawful to me, but not all things are profitable; all things are lawful to me, but not all things build up;

“Avan pawh vaia nglawiki,” ami ti. Acun cun cang ve, cunsepi avan hin am daw. “Mimi cun avan mi pawh theiki” cunsepi avan cun mi phäha dawkia am kya.

24 let no one seek his own—but each another’s.

Nami hlüei käh sui u lü khyang kcea hlüei sui ua.

25 Eat whatever is sold in the meat-market, not inquiring, because of the conscience,

Meh ami Jawihtuknaka ami jawih naküt mät ksingeinaka üng käh ngthäh u lü nami ei üng yahki.

26 for the earth and its fullness [are] the LORD’s;

Cangcim naw, “Khawmdek jah khana vekie naküt cun Bawipa kaa kyakie ni,” tia pyenki.

27 and if anyone of the unbelieving calls you, and you wish to go, eat all that is set before you, inquiring nothing, because of the conscience;

Am jumeiki naw buh na ei khaia a ning khüei üng, mät ksingeinak üng käh ngthäh lü a ning mbei naküt na ei sawxat vai.

28 and if anyone may say to you, “This is a thing sacrificed to an idol,” do not eat, because of that one who showed [it], and of the conscience, for the LORD’s [is] the earth and its fullness:

Khyang mat naw “Hin hin juktuh hjawkhanaka eiawk ni,” a ti üng, ning mthehkia phäha ja ksingeinaka phäh käh eia.

29 and conscience, I say, not of yourself, but of the other, for why [is it] that my liberty is judged by another’s conscience?

Acun cun nanga ksingeinak am ni lü, khyang kcea ksingeinaka phäha kyaki. “Acunüng dawki,” Khyang mat naw, “Ise khyang kcea ksingeinak naw ka lätnak cun na khyawh pe khai ni? ti lü a ning kthäh üng,

30 And if I partake thankfully, why am I spoken of [as] evil, for that for which I give thanks?

Ka eiawka phäha Pamhnama veia jenak ka pyen üng, ivai acuna eia phäh khyange naw na mseteikie ni?

31 Whether, then, you eat, or drink, or do anything, do all to the glory of God;

Daw ve, a i nami pawh üng pi, nami ei üng pi kyase, nami awk üng pi kyase Pamhnama hlüngtainak vaia avan pawh ua.

32 become offenseless, both to Jews and Greeks, and to the Assembly of God;

Judahea pi kyase, Krikea pi kyase, Pamhnama sangcima pi kyase am nami jah kyukngtäsak vaia xüngsei ua.

33 as I also please all in all things, not seeking my own profit, but that of many—that they may be saved.

Ka bilawh naküt üng khyang ka jesak vaia ktha na lü ami lät vaia phäh ja ami daw vai cun ngai lü, kamäta dawnak vai am sui veng.
