1 Corinthians 9
1 Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are not ye my work in the Lord?
ཨཧཾ ཀིམ྄ ཨེཀཿ པྲེརིཏོ ནཱསྨི? ཀིམཧཾ སྭཏནྟྲོ ནཱསྨི? ཨསྨཱཀཾ པྲབྷུ ཪྻཱིཤུཿ ཁྲཱིཥྚཿ ཀིཾ མཡཱ ནཱདརྴི? ཡཱུཡམཔི ཀིཾ པྲབྷུནཱ མདཱིཡཤྲམཕལསྭརཱུཔཱ ན བྷཝཐ?
2 If I am not an apostle to others, yet surely I am to you; for the seal of my apostleship are ye in the Lord.
ཨནྱལོཀཱནཱཾ ཀྲྀཏེ ཡདྱཔྱཧཾ པྲེརིཏོ ན བྷཝེཡཾ ཏཐཱཙ ཡུཥྨཏྐྲྀཏེ པྲེརིཏོ྅སྨི ཡཏཿ པྲབྷུནཱ མམ པྲེརིཏཏྭཔདསྱ མུདྲཱསྭརཱུཔཱ ཡཱུཡམེཝཱདྷྭེ།
3 This is my answer to those who question my authority.
ཡེ ལོཀཱ མཡི དོཥམཱརོཔཡནྟི ཏཱན྄ པྲཏི མམ པྲཏྱུཏྟརམེཏཏ྄།
4 Have we not a right to eat and drink?
བྷོཛནཔཱནཡོཿ ཀིམསྨཱཀཾ ཀྵམཏཱ ནཱསྟི?
5 Have we not a right to carry about with us a sister as a wife, as well as the other apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?
ཨནྱེ པྲེརིཏཱཿ པྲབྷོ རྦྷྲཱཏརཽ ཀཻཕཱཤྩ ཡཏ྄ ཀུཪྻྭནྟི ཏདྭཏ྄ ཀཱཉྩིཏ྄ དྷརྨྨབྷགིནཱིཾ ཝྱཱུཧྱ ཏཡཱ སཱརྡྡྷཾ པཪྻྱཊིཏུཾ ཝཡཾ ཀིཾ ན ཤཀྣུམཿ?
6 Or am I alone and Barnabas bound to labor with our own hands?
སཱཾསཱརིཀཤྲམསྱ པརིཏྱཱགཱཏ྄ ཀིཾ ཀེཝལམཧཾ བརྞབྦཱཤྩ ནིཝཱརིཏཽ?
7 Who ever serveth as a soldier at his own charges? Who planteth a vineyard without eating its fruit? Or who tendeth a flock and doth not eat of the milk of the flock?
ནིཛདྷནཝྱཡེན ཀཿ སཾགྲཱམཾ ཀརོཏི? ཀོ ཝཱ དྲཱཀྵཱཀྵེཏྲཾ ཀྲྀཏྭཱ ཏཏྥལཱནི ན བྷུངྐྟེ? ཀོ ཝཱ པཤུཝྲཛཾ པཱལཡན྄ ཏཏྤཡོ ན པིཝཏི?
8 Is it on man's authority that I am saying these things, or doth not the Law too say the same?
ཀིམཧཾ ཀེཝལཱཾ མཱནུཥིཀཱཾ ཝཱཙཾ ཝདཱམི? ཝྱཝསྠཱཡཱཾ ཀིམེཏཱདྲྀཤཾ ཝཙནཾ ན ཝིདྱཏེ?
9 For it is written in the law of Moses: “Thou shalt not muzzle an ox while treading out grain.” Is it for oxen that God careth?
མཱུསཱཝྱཝསྠཱགྲནྠེ ལིཁིཏམཱསྟེ, ཏྭཾ ཤསྱམརྡྡཀཝྲྀཥསྱཱསྱཾ ན བྷཾཏྶྱསཱིཏི། ཨཱིཤྭརེཎ བལཱིཝརྡྡཱནཱམེཝ ཙིནྟཱ ཀིཾ ཀྲིཡཏེ?
10 Or doth he say it altogether on our account? On our account, no doubt, it was written, that he who plougheth ought to plough in hope, and that he who thrasheth should do it in the hope of partaking.
ཀིཾ ཝཱ སཪྻྭཐཱསྨཱཀཾ ཀྲྀཏེ ཏདྭཙནཾ ཏེནོཀྟཾ? ཨསྨཱཀམེཝ ཀྲྀཏེ ཏལླིཁིཏཾ། ཡཿ ཀྵེཏྲཾ ཀརྵཏི ཏེན པྲཏྱཱཤཱཡུཀྟེན ཀརྵྚཝྱཾ, ཡཤྩ ཤསྱཱནི མརྡྡཡཏི ཏེན ལཱབྷཔྲཏྱཱཤཱཡུཀྟེན མརྡྡིཏཝྱཾ།
11 If we have sown to you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we reap from you things for the body?
ཡུཥྨཏྐྲྀཏེ྅སྨཱབྷིཿ པཱརཏྲིཀཱཎི བཱིཛཱནི རོཔིཏཱནི, ཨཏོ ཡུཥྨཱཀམཻཧིཀཕལཱནཱཾ ཝཡམ྄ ཨཾཤིནོ བྷཝིཥྱཱམཿ ཀིམེཏཏ྄ མཧཏ྄ ཀརྨྨ?
12 If others possess this right in relation to you, do not we still more? But we have not used this right; but we submit to all things, that we may occasion no hindrance to the gospel of Christ.
ཡུཥྨཱསུ ཡོ྅དྷིཀཱརསྟསྱ བྷཱགིནོ ཡདྱནྱེ བྷཝེཡུསྟརྷྱསྨཱབྷིསྟཏོ྅དྷིཀཾ ཀིཾ ཏསྱ བྷཱགིབྷི རྣ བྷཝིཏཝྱཾ? ཨདྷིཀནྟུ ཝཡཾ ཏེནཱདྷིཀཱརེཎ ན ཝྱཝཧྲྀཏཝནྟཿ ཀིནྟུ ཁྲཱིཥྚཱིཡསུསཾཝཱདསྱ ཀོ྅པི ཝྱཱགྷཱཏོ྅སྨཱབྷིཪྻནྣ ཛཱཡེཏ ཏདརྠཾ སཪྻྭཾ སཧཱམཧེ།
13 Do ye not know, that they who minister in the offerings of the temple live from the temple? that they who serve at the altar share with the altar?
ཨཔརཾ ཡེ པཝིཏྲཝསྟཱུནཱཾ པརིཙཪྻྱཱཾ ཀུཪྻྭནྟི ཏེ པཝིཏྲཝསྟུཏོ བྷཀྵྱཱཎི ལབྷནྟེ, ཡེ ཙ ཝེདྱཱཿ པརིཙཪྻྱཱཾ ཀུཪྻྭནྟི ཏེ ཝེདིསྠཝསྟཱུནཱམ྄ ཨཾཤིནོ བྷཝནྟྱེཏད྄ ཡཱུཡཾ ཀིཾ ན ཝིད?
14 In like manner also did the Lord ordain that they who preach the gospel should live from the gospel.
ཏདྭད྄ ཡེ སུསཾཝཱདཾ གྷོཥཡནྟི ཏཻཿ སུསཾཝཱདེན ཛཱིཝིཏཝྱམིཏི པྲབྷུནཱདིཥྚཾ།
15 But I have used no right of this kind; nor have I written thus that anything of this kind should be done for me; for it were better for me to die, than that any one should take from me what I glory in.
ཨཧམེཏེཥཱཾ སཪྻྭེཥཱཾ ཀིམཔི ནཱཤྲིཏཝཱན྄ མཱཾ པྲཏི ཏདནུསཱརཱཏ྄ ཨཱཙརིཏཝྱམིཏྱཱཤཡེནཱཔི པཏྲམིདཾ མཡཱ ན ལིཁྱཏེ ཡཏཿ ཀེནཱཔི ཛནེན མམ ཡཤསོ མུདྷཱཀརཎཱཏ྄ མམ མརཎཾ ཝརཾ།
16 For in preaching the gospel, I have nothing to glory in; for I am under a necessity to do so; yea, woe is to me, if I preach not the gospel!
སུསཾཝཱདགྷེཥཎཱཏ྄ མམ ཡཤོ ན ཛཱཡཏེ ཡཏསྟདྒྷོཥཎཾ མམཱཝཤྱཀཾ ཡདྱཧཾ སུསཾཝཱདཾ ན གྷོཥཡེཡཾ ཏརྷི མཱཾ དྷིཀ྄།
17 For if I do this willingly, I have a reward; but if unwillingly, still I have been intrusted with a stewardship.
ཨིཙྪུཀེན ཏཏ྄ ཀུཪྻྭཏཱ མཡཱ ཕལཾ ལཔྶྱཏེ ཀིནྟྭནིཙྪུཀེ྅པི མཡི ཏཏྐརྨྨཎོ བྷཱརོ྅རྤིཏོ྅སྟི།
18 What then is my reward? It is that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel free of charge, that I use not to the full my right as a preacher of the gospel.
ཨེཏེན མཡཱ ལབྷྱཾ ཕལཾ ཀིཾ? སུསཾཝཱདེན མམ ཡོ྅དྷིཀཱར ཨཱསྟེ ཏཾ ཡདབྷདྲབྷཱཝེན ནཱཙརེཡཾ ཏདརྠཾ སུསཾཝཱདགྷོཥཎསམཡེ ཏསྱ ཁྲཱིཥྚཱིཡསུསཾཝཱདསྱ ནིཪྻྱཡཱིཀརཎམེཝ མམ ཕལཾ།
19 For being free from all men, yet I made myself a servant to all, that I might gain the more;
སཪྻྭེཥཱམ྄ ཨནཱཡཏྟོ྅ཧཾ ཡད྄ བྷཱུརིཤོ ལོཀཱན྄ པྲཏིཔདྱེ ཏདརྠཾ སཪྻྭེཥཱཾ དཱསཏྭམངྒཱིཀྲྀཏཝཱན྄།
20 and to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain Jews; to those under the Law, as under the Law, not being myself under the Law, that I might gain those under the Law;
ཡིཧཱུདཱིཡཱན྄ ཡཏ྄ པྲཏིཔདྱེ ཏདརྠཾ ཡིཧཱུདཱིཡཱནཱཾ ཀྲྀཏེ ཡིཧཱུདཱིཡཨིཝཱབྷཝཾ། ཡེ ཙ ཝྱཝསྠཱཡཏྟཱསྟཱན྄ ཡཏ྄ པྲཏིཔདྱེ ཏདརྠཾ ཝྱཝསྠཱནཱཡཏྟོ ཡོ྅ཧཾ སོ྅ཧཾ ཝྱཝསྠཱཡཏྟཱནཱཾ ཀྲྀཏེ ཝྱཝསྠཱཡཏྟཨིཝཱབྷཝཾ།
21 to those without the Law, as without the Law, being not without a law before God, but under the law of Christ, that I might gain those without the Law;
ཡེ ཙཱལབྡྷཝྱཝསྠཱསྟཱན྄ ཡཏ྄ པྲཏིཔདྱེ ཏདརྠམ྄ ཨཱིཤྭརསྱ སཱཀྵཱད྄ ཨལབྡྷཝྱཝསྠོ ན བྷཱུཏྭཱ ཁྲཱིཥྚེན ལབྡྷཝྱཝསྠོ ཡོ྅ཧཾ སོ྅ཧམ྄ ཨལབྡྷཝྱཝསྠཱནཱཾ ཀྲྀཏེ྅ལབྡྷཝྱཝསྠ ཨིཝཱབྷཝཾ།
22 to the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak; I have become all things to all, that I might by all means save some.
དུརྦྦལཱན྄ ཡཏ྄ པྲཏིཔདྱེ ཏདརྠམཧཾ དུརྦྦལཱནཱཾ ཀྲྀཏེ དུརྦྦལཨིཝཱབྷཝཾ། ཨིཏྠཾ ཀེནཱཔི པྲཀཱརེཎ ཀཏིཔཡཱ ལོཀཱ ཡནྨཡཱ པརིཏྲཱཎཾ པྲཱཔྣུཡུསྟདརྠཾ ཡོ ཡཱདྲྀཤ ཨཱསཱིཏ྄ ཏསྱ ཀྲྀཏེ ྅ཧཾ ཏཱདྲྀཤཨིཝཱབྷཝཾ།
23 And I do all for the sake of the gospel, that I may with others partake of it.
ཨིདྲྀཤ ཨཱཙཱརཿ སུསཾཝཱདཱརྠཾ མཡཱ ཀྲིཡཏེ ཡཏོ྅ཧཾ ཏསྱ ཕལཱནཱཾ སཧབྷཱགཱི བྷཝིཏུམིཙྪཱམི།
24 Know ye not, that of those who run in the race-course all run, but one receiveth the prize? Thus run, that ye may obtain.
པཎྱལཱབྷཱརྠཾ ཡེ དྷཱཝནྟི དྷཱཝཏཱཾ ཏེཥཱཾ སཪྻྭེཥཱཾ ཀེཝལ ཨེཀཿ པཎྱཾ ལབྷཏེ ཡུཥྨཱབྷིཿ ཀིམེཏནྣ ཛྙཱཡཏེ? ཨཏོ ཡཱུཡཾ ཡཐཱ པཎྱཾ ལཔྶྱདྷྭེ ཏཐཻཝ དྷཱཝཏ།
25 And every one who contendeth in the games is temperate in all things; they, however, to obtain a perishable crown, but we, an imperishable.
མལླཱ ཨཔི སཪྻྭབྷོགེ པརིམིཏབྷོགིནོ བྷཝནྟི ཏེ ཏུ མླཱནཱཾ སྲཛཾ ལིཔྶནྟེ ཀིནྟུ ཝཡམ྄ ཨམླཱནཱཾ ལིཔྶཱམཧེ།
26 I therefore so run, not as one uncertain; I so fight, not as one striking the air;
ཏསྨཱད྄ ཨཧམཔི དྷཱཝཱམི ཀིནྟུ ལཀྵྱམནུདྡིཤྱ དྷཱཝཱམི ཏནྣཧི། ཨཧཾ མལླཨིཝ ཡུདྷྱཱམི ཙ ཀིནྟུ ཚཱཡཱམཱགྷཱཏཡནྣིཝ ཡུདྷྱཱམི ཏནྣཧི།
27 but I beat down my body, and bring it into subjection, lest perhaps, when I have been a herald to others, I should myself be rejected as unworthy.
ཨིཏརཱན྄ པྲཏི སུསཾཝཱདཾ གྷོཥཡིཏྭཱཧཾ ཡཏ྄ སྭཡམགྲཱཧྱོ ན བྷཝཱམི ཏདརྠཾ དེཧམ྄ ཨཱཧནྨི ཝཤཱིཀུཪྻྭེ ཙ།
