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,
Koeinaakhqi, pakdamkhqi ing myi ak kaiawh tuicunli ami na kat ce a sim kaana nami awm ham amni ngaih khqi nyng.
2 and all were immersed into Moses in the cloud, and in the sea;
Cekkhqi boeih ing Mosi awh myi ing tuicunli awh baptisma hu uhy.
3 and all ate the same spiritual food,
Myihla buh pynoet ce vel qip unawh,
4 and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they were drinking of a spiritual rock following them, and the rock was the Christ;
myihla tui pynoet ce a na aw qip uhy; a mingmih a hu awh ak bat myihla lungnu awhkawng tui ce aw uhy, cawhkaw lungnu ce Khrih ni.
5 but in the most of them God was not well pleased, for they were strewn in the wilderness,
Cehlai thlang ak kuum ak khanawh Khawsa ak kaw am law adawngawh qamkoh khuiawh thi boeih uhy.
6 and those things became types of us, for our not passionately desiring evil things, as also these desired.
A mingmih ing ami sai them che awh kawlung amni taaknaak ahamna ni toek hly kawi na awm law hy.
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”;
Thlang pynoet ing myiqawl ami bawk amyihna nangmih khqing koeh bawk law lawt uh; “Thlangkhqi ing awk a ai aham ngawi unawh laam aham dyi uhy,” tinawh qee hyt amyihna.
8 neither may we commit whoredom, as certain of them committed whoredom, and there fell in one day twenty-three thousand;
Cekkhqi ak khuiawh thlang vang ing nupa thawlhnaak ami sai dawngawh khawnghi hypoet awh thlang thongkul thongthum ami thih amyihna, ningnih ing nupa thawlhnaak koeh sai u sih.
9 neither may we tempt the Christ, as also certain of them tempted, and perished by the serpents;
Thlangvang ing Bawipa ami noek ami dak dawngawh – khqui ing cuk khqi nawh ami thih boeih amyihna – ningnih ing Bawipa ve noek a dak aham am awm hy.
10 neither murmur, as also some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer.
A mingmih anglakawhkaw thlangvang ing ami saibi a dawngawh – khan ceityih ing a thih sak khqi boeih amyihna, ningnih taw koeh saibi u sih.
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)
Ningmih ing ni toek aham vemyih khqi ve ana awm nawh a tym a pha lawh ning ngaih ni taaknaak aham qeena ak awm ni. (aiōn g165)
12 so that he who is thinking to stand—let him observe, lest he fall.
Cedawngawh, ak cak cana dyi nyng, tinawh ak poek nang ing, am nang tluuknaak aham ngaihta lah!
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].
Thlanghqing a venawh amak law khawi sykzoeknaak ce nangmih a venawh am law hy. Khawsa taw ypawm hy; anih ing am nang yh noeng sykzoeknaak ce nak khanawh am pha law sak kaw. Sykzoeknaak hu bai tik seiawm, sykzoeknaak ak kaiawh nang dyihnaak thai a hamna anih ing lam qoek a bah law kaw.
14 For this reason, my beloved, flee from the idolatry;
Cedawngawh, ka lungnaak ka pyikhqi, myiqawl bawknaak ce cen taak uh.
15 as to wise men I speak—judge what I say.
Thlakcyikhqi venawh ni awi kak kqawn law hy; kak kqawn ve na mimah ing hqimhqa lah uh.
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?
Zoseennaak boet ningnih ing ni zeelnaak ve Khrih a thi ni qupnaak pyi am nu? Phaihpi ning thek uh ve Khrih a pum ni qupnaak pyi am nu?
17 Because one bread, one body, are we the many—for we all partake of the one bread.
Ningnih thlang khawzah ve phaipi cunoet, pum pynoet na nik awm ni; ni cu boeih na phaipi cunoet doeng ni ni quum haih uh.
18 See Israel according to the flesh! Are those not eating the sacrifices in the fellowship of the altar?
Israel thlangkhqi ce poek lah uh bulnaak awhkaw buh ak aikhqi taw bawkthang am qup haih lawt unawh aw?
19 What do I say then? That an idol is anything? Or that a sacrifice offered to an idol is anything?
Cawhtaw kai ing myiqawl a venawh bulnaak awh ami pek qup pyi ham ka ti nawh nu? Am ni,
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.
lukih thlangkhqi ing bulnaak ami sai taw Khawsa venawh ami sai am nawh; qaai a venawh ni ami sai, nangmih ing qaai mi naming pha qu am ni ngaih pyi khqi nyng.
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 a boet ingkaw qaai a boet am aw haih thai kawm uk ti; Bawipa ak caboei ingkaw qai ak caboei am veel haih thai bai kawm uk ti.
22 do we arouse the LORD to jealousy? Are we stronger than He?
Bawipa ve tlaiseet sak ham cai uhyk ti my? Anih anglakawh ningnih nik tha awm khqoet nawh nu?
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;
Ik-oeih boeih sai ciimcaih hy, cehlai ik-oeih boeih sai am leek hy. Ik-oeih boeih sai ciimcaih hy, cehlai ik-oeih boeih sai ing thlang am tlaih vawng hy.
24 let no one seek his own—but each another’s.
Cedawngawh u awm amah a leeknaak hly doeng a sui kana thlang chang a leeknaak hly sui seh nyng.
25 Eat whatever is sold in the meat-market, not inquiring, because of the conscience,
Kawlung khuiawh doetnaak a taak qee kaana meh a mi zawih ce ai mai,
26 for the earth and its fullness [are] the LORD’s;
ikawtih, khawmdek ingkaw ak khuiawh ak awm boeih ve Bawipa koe ni.
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;
Amak cangnaak thlang ing buh ai na nik khy nawh ceh aham na ngaih awhtaw, kawlung khuiawh doetnaak a taak qee kaana na haiawh a toen law ce ai mai.
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:
Cehlai u ingawm, “Vawhkaw buh a an ve bulnaak buh a an ni,” a ti awhtaw ak kqawn lawkung mi kawlung a caihnaak aham koeh ai voel,
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?
nang ak kawlung ap kqawn ngaih na nyng, ak kqawn lawkung ak kawlung ni kak kqawn ngaihnaak hy. Ikaw ham nu ka ngaihdingnaak ce thlang ak poeknaak ing awi a deng kaw?
30 And if I partake thankfully, why am I spoken of [as] evil, for that for which I give thanks?
Ymnaak ing buh veel nawh Khawsa venawh zeelnaak awi kak kqawn awhtaw, kaw tinawh nu coet ak kap na ka awm kaw?
31 Whether, then, you eat, or drink, or do anything, do all to the glory of God;
Cedawngawh na awk na ainaak ingkaw them na sainaak hoei awh, Khawsa a boeihmangnaak na sai lah.
32 become offenseless, both to Jews and Greeks, and to the Assembly of God;
Thlang ang bahnaak aham ik-oeih koeh sai law uh, Juda awm, Greek awm Khawsa ak thlangboel awm –
33 as I also please all in all things, not seeking my own profit, but that of many—that they may be saved.
ik-oeih a soep a hoei awh thlang boeih ak kawngaih sai aham kak tha ka lawh lawt amyihna nangmih ing namik tha lo lawt lah uh. Kamah a leeknaak doeng ce am sui nyng saw hulna ami awm thainaak aham thlang khawzah a leeknaak ni ka sui hy.
