< 1 Corinthians 14 >

1 Follow after love, and earnestly desire spiritual things, and especially that you may prophesy.
Cheo ayi npiziru nsu nin filizunu Kutellẹ, bara inan se usu anaba.
2 For the one who speaks in another language speaks not to people, but to God; for no one understands; but in the Spirit he speaks mysteries.
Bara ulenge na adin su uliru nin long lilen na adin su uliru nin nanutari ba nin Kutelleari, na umon wasa ayininghe ba bara na adin bellu nan nya Nfip milau imon ile na inyesin.
3 But he who prophesies speaks to people for their encouragement, strengthening, and comfort.
Ulenge na adin su annabci, din liru nin nanitari atizanani ikunjo, atizanani likara, anin tizanani ayi asheu.
4 He who speaks in another language edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.
Ulenge na adin su uliru nin tilem din zazinu litimere, a unan sun annabci kpizina tukunan kilari Kutellẹ.
5 Now I desire to have you all speak with other languages, but rather that you would prophesy, and he is greater who prophesies than he who speaks with other languages, unless he interprets, that the church may be built up.
In di nin su vat mine iwa din su uliru nin tong tilem, nin likati nane wang, usu nighari isu anabci. Ulenge na adinsuzu anabci katin unan liru nin tilem adi na unan kpilizu tileme duku ba, bara kilari nlire nan se ukunu.
6 But now, brothers, if I come to you speaking with other languages, what would I profit you, unless I speak to you either by way of revelation, or of knowledge, or of prophesying, or of teaching?
Nene nuana nilime nin nishono, nwa dak kitimine nnin liru nin tong tilem, iyaghari ima se kitinighe, se de ntunun minu nliru fwang, sa uyiru, sa anabci, sa udursuzu kiti?
7 Even things without life, giving a voice, whether pipe or harp, if they did not give a distinction in the sounds, how would it be known what is piped or harped?
Andi adadu nsali tilai nafo ishirya sa abengbeng na tiwuyi mine di ngangang ba, ima ti iyinzari umon yinin iyaghari idin wulusue?
8 For if the trumpet gave an uncertain sound, who would prepare himself for war?
Asa ipene kulantun ghe nin lon li wuyi ugan na lin likumba, umon ba ti iyinzari ayinin kubin kelu ndu likume?
9 So also you, unless you uttered by the tongue words easy to understand, how would it be known what is spoken? For you would be speaking into the air.
Nanere di ni ghinue wang; asa idin su uliru nin ti gbulang tongo nati di kanan ba, iyizari imati umong yining imon ile na ibelle, iba liru, na umon ba yinu ba.
10 There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none is without meaning.
Tilem duku gbardang nyi, na nlong duku sa uma'na ba.
11 If then I do not know the meaning of the sound, I would be to him who speaks a foreigner, and he who speaks would be a foreigner to me.
Bara nani andi na nyinno imong ile na idin belẹ nin long lilem ba, nmaso kumara kiti nnan lirẹ, ame unan lirẹ wang so kumara kitining.
12 So also you, since you are zealous for spiritual things, seek that you may abound to the building up of the church.
Anung wang andi idin yalinu nworu iyene Nfip micine in nan nya mine yitan yakyak n kelu kutin nlira.
13 Therefore let him who speaks in another language pray that he may interpret.
Ame ule na adin liru nin long lilem na asu nlira ase ukpiliuwe.
14 For if I pray in another language, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.
Bara nwa ti nlira nin long lilem, uruhu nghari di nlire a na kibinayi ni nnin mara imon icine ba.
15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also. I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.
Nyaghari meng basu? Mba su nlira nin ruhu ning, nkquru nsu nlira nin kibinayi ning tutung. Mba su avu nin ruhu nin, nkuru su avu nin kibinayi nin tutung.
16 Otherwise if you bless with the spirit, how will he who fills the place of the unlearned say the "Amen" at your giving of thanks, seeing he does not know what you say?
Andi na nani ba, uwa su liru Kutellẹ nin ruhu ame ule na adin lanzu timap feba ti inyizari aworo ''usonani'' andi udin nakpu ngudiya, a na ame yiro imon ilenge na fe din belue ba?
17 For you truly give thanks well, but the other person is not built up.
Fe nnaKpa ugudiyẹ fe gegeme kang, na ulele in nin setikunang nan nya ba.
18 I thank God I speak in tongues more than you all.
Ngode Kutellẹ nworu nkatin minu vat nin su nliru nin tilem ngangang.
19 However in the church I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in another language.
Ukatin mengku nworu nbelin agbulang ataun nan nya kuti Nlira nin yinnu ning nnan kele among, nnin woru nenge nbelin agbulang amui nin tilem likure a na umong lanza ba.
20 Brothers, do not be children in thoughts, yet in malice be babies, but in thoughts be mature.
Nuana nilime ni nishono, na iwa su ukpilizu tinonoba. Kitene nimon inanzang, son nafo nono, nan nya kpilizu mine yitan awasara.
21 In the law it is written, "By people of strange tongues and by the lips of strangers I will speak to this people; but even then they will not listen to me," says the Lord.
Nan nya sharawe ina yertin, “Kiti nanit tilem tilem nin tinu namarari nma liru nin nanit alele; vat nin nani na ima lanzui ba,” Ubellun Ncikilari.
22 Therefore tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to the unbelieving; but prophesying is for a sign, not to the unbelieving, but to those who believe.
Bara nani tileme alamar, na kiti na nan dortu Kutellẹ ba, se kiti na nan salin dortu Kutellẹ. U anabci na kulapari kiti na nan ṣali dortu Kutellẹ ba se kiti na nan dortu Kutellẹ.
23 If therefore the whole church is assembled together and all speak in tongues, and unlearned or unbelieving people come in, won't they say that you are crazy?
Andi bara nanere, vat anan dortu Kutellẹ nwa dazuro isu uliru nin tilem, anan das nin nanan salin dortu Kutellẹ nin da pira, na iba woru tidi nin nilazaba? ag,
24 But if all prophesy, and someone unbelieving or unlearned comes in, he is reproved by all, and he is judged by all.
Iwa din woru vat mine di nan nya annabci kunan das sa unan salin dortu Kutellẹ nin da pira, amase uyinnu vat nile imon na alanza, ame kpilizu nin litime imon irika na alanza idin belue.
25 And thus the secrets of his heart are revealed. So he will fall down on his face and worship God, declaring that God is among you indeed.
Imon liyeshin kibinayi me ba nuzu kanang anin diu nin muro me a su Kutellẹ usujada a durso kanang Kutellẹ nan nya mine.
26 What is it then, brothers? When you come together, each one has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has another language, has an interpretation. Let all things be done to build each other up.
N'yaghari tutung nuana nilime nin nishono? Iwa da zuro ligowe, umon dinin na sem, umon udursuzu kiti, umon upuzunu nimon, umon uliru nin tilem, sa ukpilizu tilem. Na tisu imon vat ti nan se tikunant kuti Nlira.
27 If anyone speaks in another language, let it be two, or at the most three, and in turn; and let one interpret.
Asa umon lira nin lon lilem, na ise anit naba sa natat, nan nya mine, ise umon unan kpilizu nimon ile na ibelle.
28 But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in the church, and let him speak to himself, and to God.
Asa na unan kpiliu dukuba, kogha mine min tik nan nya kilari nlire, na ana su uliru nin litime usanme a Kutellẹ.
29 Let the prophets speak, two or three, and let the others discern.
Na a annabawa naba sa natat su uliru, na among anan lanzẹ nin dumun ulire na ibelle.
30 But if a revelation is made to another sitting by, let the first keep silent.
Andi ujinjin duku nan nya lissosin mine na ayinno, na ame ulenge na ayita nlire ti tik.
31 For you can all prophesy one by one, that all may learn and all may be encouraged.
Andi kogha mine nsu u annabnaci nalalarum bara kogha mine nan se likara nibinayi.
32 The spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets,
Bara ti ruhu na anabawa, inung a anabawere nin nati mine din dortu mun.
33 for God is not a God of confusion, but of peace. As in all the churches of the saints,
Bara na Kutellẹ. di Kutellẹ. ku shogolog ba, kun lisosin limanghari. Nafo na nitin nlira nanit alauwe di.
34 let the women keep silent in the churches, for it has not been permitted for them to speak; but let them be in subjection, as the Law also says.
Na awani mizin tik nan nya niti nlira. Bara na iyina nani isu uwiliru ba, na inughe yita nin ni nati, nanere uduke din belu.
35 If they desire to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home, for it is shameful for a woman to chatter in the church.
Andi imoimon duku ile na idin konu nani ayi inyinnuẹ na itirin ales mine nilari. Bara imon ncinghari uwani su uliru nan nya kilari nlira.
36 What? Was it from you that the word of God went out? Or did it come to you alone?
Uliru Kutellẹ na nuzu kiti minere? Anughere una duru kiti mine cassa?
37 If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him recognize the things which I write to you, that they are the commandment of the Lord.
Asa umon din pillu ame annabiari sa unit unan ruhu, na a belu nenge imon ile na ina nyertin minu uduka Ncikilariari.
38 But if someone does not recognize this, he is not recognized.
Asa umon nari ule ulire na iwa yinin ninghe. ba.
39 Therefore, my brothers, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues.
Bara nani linuana, piziran usu nworu isu u ananbci, nani na iwa wanting uliru nin tilem ba.
40 Let all things be done decently and in order.
Bara nani na tisu imon vat nan nyan kanang nin libau dert licine gegeme.
