< 1 Corinthians 14 >
1 Follow after love; yet desire earnestly spiritual [gifts], but rather that ye may prophesy.
Nungsiba tallu, aduga thawaigi oiba khudolsing, thoidok hendokna Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpabu thawai yaona pamjou.
2 For he that speaketh in a tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God; for no man understandeth; but in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
Khangdaba atoppa lon ngangba mahak aduna madu misingda ngangba natte adubu Tengban Mapudani, maramdi madu mi kana amatana khangde. Adum oinamak thawaigi mapanna mahakna athuppasing adu ngangbani.
3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men edification, and comfort, and consolation.
Adubu Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpa makhoising aduna misingda ngangduna makhoibu panggal kalhanbi, pukning thougatpi amasung themjinbi.
4 He that speaketh in a tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.
Khangdaba atoppa lon ngangbasing aduna makhoi masakhaktabu semgatli adubu Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpa makhoising aduna singlup apumbabu semgatli.
5 Now I would have you all speak with tongues, but rather that ye should prophesy: and greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.
Nakhoi khudingmakna khangdaba atoppa lon ngangba adu eina pamjei; adubu nakhoida Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpagi khudol leiba aduna henna eina pamjei. Maramdi singlup semgatnabagidamak kanagumba amana lon handokpiba nattrabadi atoppa khangdaba lon ngangba mi adudagidi Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpiba mi aduna henna chao-i.
6 But now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak to you either by way of revelation, or of knowledge, or of prophesying, or of teaching?
Maram aduna, nungsijaraba ichil-inaosing eina nakhoigi nanakta lakpa matamda eina khangdaba atoppa lon nganglaga nakhoigidamak ei kari kannapham leibage? Eina nakhoida Tengban Mapugi phongdokpiba khara nattraga lousing khara nattraga Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpiba nattraga tambiba purakpa nattrabadi nakhoida kari amata kanade.
7 Even things without life, giving a voice, whether pipe or harp, if they give not a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?
Makhol thokpa, thawai yaodaba pot, haibadi bashi nattraga bina maknasu, tan kaina khonglabadi kari tanthano haiba kanana kamdouna khanggani?
8 For if the trumpet give an uncertain voice, who shall prepare himself for war?
Peresingga khongbada sengna makhol thoktrabadi kanana langi thourang tougadage?
9 So also ye, unless ye utter by the tongue speech easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye will be speaking into the air.
Matou asigumna, nakhoigi leina misingna khangba ngamba wa ngangba nattanadi nakhoina ngangliba adu karino haiba kanana khangba ngamgadage? Nakhoina madu arembada ngangba oigani.
10 There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and no [kind] is without signification.
Malem asida tongan tonganba lon mayam ama lei, adumakpu makhoigi marakta wahandok leitaba lon-di amata leite.
11 If then I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be to him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh will be a barbarian unto me.
Adu oirabadi kanagumba amana ngangba lon amagi wahandok adu eina khangba ngamdrabadi, ngangliba mi adugi maphamda eihak mireibakki mi oirani aduga eigi iphamdana mahak mireibak macha amani.
12 So also ye, since ye are zealous of spiritual [gifts], seek that ye may abound unto the edifying of the church.
Nakhoina Thawaigi khudolsing adu khourangna pamjabagi maramna, pumnamakki mathakta singlup semgatpada mateng pangba khudolsing adubu henna sijinnanaba nakhoina hotnagadabani.
13 Wherefore let him that speaketh in a tongue pray that he may interpret.
Maram asigidamak atoppa lon ngangba mahak aduna mahakna ngangliba adu handoknabagidamak Tengban Mapuda haijasanu.
14 For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.
Maramdi eina atoppa lon amada haijarabadi, madu eigi thawaina haijabani, adubu maduda eigi pukning wakhaldi saruk yade.
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.
Adu oirabadi eina kari tougani? Eina eigi thawaina haijagani, aduga eigi pukningnasu haijagani; Eigi thawaina isei sakchagani, aduga eigi pukningnasu sakchagani.
16 Else if thou bless with the spirit, how shall he that filleth the place of the unlearned say the Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he knoweth not what thou sayest?
Nahakna Tengban Mapubu thagatchaba matamda nahakki thawaina khakta thagatlabadi, tinnaba aduda saruk yariba karisu khangdaba mising aduna nahakna Tengban Mapu thagatchabagi hairiba aduda “Amen” haina karamna haigani? Nahakna hairiba adu makhoina khangnabagi lambi suklei leite.
17 For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.
Nahakki Tengban Mapubu thagatchabagi haijaba aduna yamna ningthijaba oirabaphaobada maduna atoppa masingbu semgatloi.
18 I thank God, I speak with tongues more than you all:
Eina nakhoi pumnamaktagi henna khangdaba atoppa lonsing ngangbagidamak eina Tengban Mapubu thagatli.
19 howbeit in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue.
Adubu singlup tinnaba matamda eina khangdaba londa wahei lising tara ngangbabudi atoppasingbu tambinabagidamak miyamna khangba ngamgadaba wahei manga ngangbana henna pamjei.
20 Brethren, be not children in mind: howbeit in malice be ye babes, but in mind be men.
Ichil-inaosa nakhoina anganggumna khanba toklo. Phattaba toubagi matangdadi angang oibiyu adubu wakhal khanbadadi ahal oibiyu.
21 In the law it is written, By men of strange tongues and by the lips of strangers will I speak unto this people; and not even thus will they hear me, saith the Lord.
Mapugi Puyada asumna iduna lei, “Ibungona hai, atoppa lonsing ngangba misinggi mapanna, nganggani eina eigi misingda. Nganggani eina mireibakki chinbalgi mapanna, adubu madu phaobada, taroi makhoina eigi wa.”
22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to the unbelieving: but prophesying [is for a sign], not to the unbelieving, but to them that believe.
Adu oirabadi khangdaba atoppa lon ngangba haibasi khudamgidamakni, madu thajaba misinggidamak natte, adubu thajadaba-singgidamaktani. Adubu Tengban Mapugi wa takthokpa haibasina thajaba-singgidamaktani, thajadaba-singgidamakta natte.
23 If therefore the whole church be assembled together, and all speak with tongues, and there come in men unlearned or unbelieving, will they not say that ye are mad?
Maram aduna singlup apumbana tinnabada mipum khudingmakna khangdaba atoppa lon nganglabadi, karisu khangdaba nattraga thajadaba misingna changlakpada makhoina nakhoi pumnamak ngaore haina hairoidra?
24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one unbelieving or unlearned, he is reproved by all, he is judged by all;
Adubu nakhoi pumnamakna Tengban Mapugi wa sandoktuna leiringeida kanagumba thajadaba nattraga karisu khangdaba mi amana changlaklabadi makhoina tariba aduna makhoigi pap khanghangani amasung makhoina taribasing aduna makhoibu wayengani,
25 the secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so he will fall down on his face and worship God, declaring that God is among you indeed.
Makhoigi aronba wakhal adu phongdokkani; aduga “Tasengnamak nakhoigi narak asida Tengban Mapu lei” haina haidokcharaga nonthajaduna Tengban Mapubu khurumjagani.
26 What is it then, brethren? When ye come together, each one hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.
Adunadi eikhoina kari haigani, ichil inaosa? Nakhoina Tengban Mapubu thagat-khurumjanabagidamak tinnaba matamda, amana thagat esei sakpa, amana tambiba, atoppa amana Tengban Mapugi phongdokpiba adu phongdokpa, atoppa amana khangdaba atoppa lon ngangba, aduga atoppa amana amuk hairiba adu handokpa nakhoi amamamna tou. Adubu pumnamak adu singlup adu semgatnaba oigadabani.
27 If any man speaketh in a tongue, [let it be] by two, or at the most three, and [that] in turn; and let one interpret:
Nakhoina khangdaba atoppa lon nganglabadi, nakhoi ani nattraga ahumdagi hendana madu mathang manao naina ngangsanu, aduga ngangliba adu kanagumba amana handoksanu.
28 but if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.
Adubu madu handoknaba mi amata leitrabadi ngangliba mahak aduna singlupta tuminna leisanu amasung madu masa mathantada amadi Tengban Mapuda ngangjasanu.
29 And let the prophets speak [by] two or three, and let the others discern.
Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpa ani nattraga ahumna ngangsanu aduga ateising aduna makhoina hairiba adu chang yengjasanu.
30 But if a revelation be made to another sitting by, let the first keep silence.
Adubu tinnaba aduda phamliba kanagumba amana Tengban Mapudagi paojel phangjarabadi, hanna ngangliba mahakna ngangba lepkadabani.
31 For ye all can prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted;
Pumnamakna tamjanaba amadi pukning thougatpiba phangjanaba nakhoi pumnamakna amamam oina Tengban Mapugi wa adu phongdokpa yai.
32 and the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets;
Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpagi khudol adu ngangliba mahakki makha polhangadabani.
33 for God is not [a God] of confusion, but of peace; as in all the churches of the saints.
Maramdi Tengban Mapudi mawong maril naidabagi Mapu natte adubu ingthabagini. Aduga Tengban Mapugi misingna tinnaba khudingmakta toubagum,
34 Let the women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but let them be in subjection, as also saith the law.
Singlup tinnabada nupisingna tuminna leisanu. Makhoida wa ngangbagi ayaba leite, adubu wayel yathangna haibagumna makhoina makha ponna leigadabani.
35 And if they would learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home: for it is shameful for a woman to speak in the church.
Makhoina karigumba amagi maramda khangning hangningba pamlabadi, makhoina mayumda masa masagi nupasingda hangsanu. Maramdi nupina singlup tinnaba matamda wa ngangba haibasi ikainingaini.
36 What? was it from you that the word of God went forth? or came it unto you alone?
Nattraga Tengban Mapugi wahei adu nangondagi lakpa oiribra? Nattraga madu lakkhiba adu nakhoikhaktadara?
37 If any man thinketh himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him take knowledge of the things which I write unto you, that they are the commandment of the Lord.
Kanagumbana mahak Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpa nattraga thawaigi khudol lei haina khanjarabadi, eina nakhoida iriba asi Ibungogi yathangni haiba adu mahakna khangsanu.
38 But if any man is ignorant, let him be ignorant.
Adubu masida mahakna thousadrabadi mahakpusu thaoiruganu.
39 Wherefore, my brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.
Maram aduna, ichil inaosa, Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpada pukning luppu, aduga atoppa lonsing ngangba thingganu.
40 But let all things be done decently and in order.
Pumnamaksing asi ningthina amadi mathang manao naiba mawongda tougadabani.
