1 Corinthians 8
1 Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth.
Houjik lai murtida katluraba potki maramda nakhoina hanglakpa wahanggi maramda: Hoi, eikhoi pumnamakki khangba lei haiba eikhoina khang-i. Adubu khangbana chaothokhalli, adubu nungsibana semgatli.
2 If any man thinketh that he knoweth anything, he knoweth not yet as he ought to know;
Karigumba khara khang-i haina khanjaba makhoising aduna makhoina khangpham thokpa adu youna tasengna khangdri.
3 but if any man loveth God, the same is known of him.
Adubu Tengban Mapubu nungsijaba mahak adubudi Tengban Mapuna khangbi.
4 Concerning therefore the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is [anything] in the world, and that there is no God but one.
Adu oirabadi lai murtida katluraba pot chabagi matangdadi: Lai murtidi tasengna taibangpanda leiba natte amasung Tengban Mapu amakhak lei haibasi eikhoina khang-i.
5 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth; as there are gods many, and lords many;
Atiya amadi malem asida laini haina kounabasing leirabasu aduga asigumba laising amadi mapusing yamna leirabasu,
6 yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we through him.
Eikhoigidi Tengban Mapu ama haibadi Ipa adu lei. Pot pumnamakpu sembiba mapu adu mahakni aduga eikhoina mahakkidamak lei. Aduga Ibungo amakhak lei, mahakti Jisu Christtani. Mahakki mapanna pot pumnamak sembi aduga mahakki mapanna eikhoina hingbani.
7 Howbeit in all men there is not that knowledge: but some, being used until now to the idol, eat as [of] a thing sacrificed to an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.
Adubu mi khudingmakna achumba asi khangde. Mi kharadi lai murti latlakpagi heinabi leirakpana houjik phaoba makhoina lai murtida katluraba pot chaba matamda lai murtida katluraba pot chabagum khalli. Aduga makhoigi achum aran khangba pukning adu sonbagi maramna makhoibu chinjak aduna maanghalle haina phaojei.
8 But meat will not commend us to God: neither, if we eat not, are we the worse; nor, if we eat, are we the better.
Adumakpu chinjakna eikhoiga Tengban Mapuga leinaba mari adu phagat-hanba natte. Eikhoina chadraga karisu mangjaba leite aduga charaga tongjaba karisu leite.
9 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to the weak.
Adumakpu, nakhoigi naning tamba adu pangthokpada thajaba sonbasing adubu papta tahandanaba cheksillu.
10 For if a man see thee which hast knowledge sitting at meat in an idol’s temple, will not his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?
Maramdi lousing adu leiriba nahakna lai murtigi sangda chaba adu achum aran khangnaba pukning sonba mahakna urabadi mahakpu nahakna lai murtida katpa pot chananaba thougatpa oiroidra?
11 For through thy knowledge he that is weak perisheth, the brother for whose sake Christ died.
Adu oirabadi nahakki lousing adugi maramna mahakkidamak Christtana sibikhiba nahakki asonba nachin nanao adubu manghalloidra?
12 And thus, sinning against the brethren, and wounding their conscience when it is weak, ye sin against Christ.
Aduga matou asumna nahakna nachin nanaosinggi mathakta pap touraba amadi makhoigi achum aran khangnaba pukning adubu sokhallabadi nahakna Christtagi maiyokta pap tou-i.
