1 Corinthians 10
1 For I wish not ye should be ignorant, brethren, that, all our fathers, were, under the cloud, and, all, passed through the sea, —
Gonne ga re a tshwanela go lebala, bakaulengwe ba ba rategang, se se diragaletseng batho ba ga rona mo sekakeng bogologolo. Modimo o ne wa ba etelela pele ka leru le le neng le tsamaya kwa pele ga bone; mme o ne wa ba ralatsa botlhe sentle metsi a Lewatle je Lehibidu.
2 And, all, immersed themselves into Moses, in the cloud, and in the sea;
Se se ka nna sa bidiwa e le “kolobetso” ya bone, —ba kolobeditswe botlhe mo lewatleng le mo lerung! —jaaka balatedi ba ga Moshe, boineelo jwa bone mo go ene jaaka moeteledi-pele wa lona.
3 And, all, did eat [the same] spiritual food,
Mme ka kgakgamatso wa ba romelela dijo go ja le metsi go nwa gone kwa sekakeng; ba ne ba a nwa metsi a Keresete o ba a neileng. O ne a le teng a na le bone jaaka Lefika le le nonofileng la thudiso ya semowa.
4 And, all, drank, the same spiritual drink, —for they continued to drink of the spiritual rock that followed them, and, the rock, was the Christ: —
5 Nevertheless, with the most of them, God, was not well-pleased, for they were strewed along in the desert.
Le fa go ntse jalo bontsi jwa bone botlhe ba ne ba se ka ba utlwa Modimo, mme o ne a ba nyeletsa mo sekakeng.
6 But, in these things, they became, ensamples for us, to the end we should not be covetous of evil things, even as, they, also coveted;
Mo thutong e re tlhagisiwa gore ga re a tshwanela go eletsa dilo tse di bosula jaaka ba ne ba dira,
7 Neither become ye, idolaters, as some of them, —as it is written—The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to be making sport;
le eseng go obamela medimo ya disetwa jaaka ba ne ba dira. (Dikwalo di re bolelela gore, “batho ba ne ba nna fa fatshe go ja le go nwa mme ba tloga ba nanoga ba bina,” ba obamela namane ya gauta), modimo wa sesetwa.
8 Neither let us commit fornication, as, some of them, committed fornication, and there fell, in one day, three and twenty thousand;
Thuto e nngwwe ya rona ke kaga se se neng sa direga fa bangwe ba bone ba leofa le basadi ba banna ba bangwe, mme dikete di le masome a mabedi le boraro tsa a swa ka letsatsi.
9 Neither let us be putting the Lord to the test, as, some of them, put him to the test, and, by the serpents, were perishing;
Mme se leke bobelotelele jwa Morena, ba ne ba dira jalo, mme ba a swa, ba bolawa ke malomo a noga.
10 Neither be ye murmuring, even, as some of them, murmured, and perished by the destroyer.
Le gone o se ka wa ngongoregela Modimo le tirisano ya one le wena, jaaka bangwe ba bone ba ne ba dira, gonne ke gone ka moo Modimo o ileng wa romela moengele wa one go ba nyeletsa botlhe.
11 But, these things, by way of type, were happening unto them, and were written with a view to our admonition, unto whom, the ends of the ages, have reached along. (aiōn g165)
Dilo tse tsotlhe di ba diragaletse e le dikai, jaaka dithuto tsa boitlamo mo go rona go re tlhagisa gore re seka ra dira jaaka bone; dilo tse di kwadilwe gore re tle re bale kaga bone le go ithuta mo go bone mo malatsing ano a bofelo jaaka lefatshe le le gaufi le bokhutlo jwa lone. (aiōn g165)
12 So that, he that thinketh he is standing, let him take heed lest he fall.
Jalo itlhokomeleng. Fa lo akanya, lo re, “Oo, ga nka ke ka tlhola ke tshwara jalo gape”, a se e nne tlhagiso mo go lona. Gonne le lona lo ka wela mo sebeng.
13 Trial, hath not taken you, save such as man can bear; faithful, moreover is God, who will not suffer you to be tried above what ye are able, but will make, with the trial, also the way of escape, that ye may be able to hold out.
Mme gakologelwang se, dikeletso tse di bosula tse di tlang mo botshelong jwa lona ga se sepe se sesha le se se pharologanyo. Ba le bantsi ba ne ba lebagana le mathata a a ntseng fela jalo pele ga lona. Mme ga go na thaelo epe e e sa kganelesegeng. Lo ka tshepa Modimo go kganela thaelo gore e se ka ya nna le thata mo lo sa ka keng lwa e fenya, gonne Morena o solofeditse se, mme o tlaa diragatsa se a se buileng. O tlaa lo supegetsa ka fa lo ka falolang nonofo ya thaelo ka gone gore lo kgone go itshoka kgatlhanong le yone.
14 Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry, —
Jalo ditsala tse di rategang, tshabang kobamelo nngwe le nngwe ya medimo ya disetwa.
15 As, to prudent men, I speak, —judge, ye, what I say: —
Lo batho ba ba botlhale. Bonang ka bo lona gore a se ke tlogang ke se bua ke boammaaruri.
16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not, a sharing together of the blood of the Christ? The loaf which we break, is it not, a sharing together of the body of the Christ?
Fa re kopela senwelo sa mofine tshegofatso fa Lomating lwa Morena, a se ga se reye gore, botlhe ba ba se nwang ba tlhakanela tshegofatso ya madi a ga Keresete? Mme fa re ngathoganya senkgwe se go ja mmogo, se se supa gore rotlhe re tlhakanetse dithuso mo mmeleng wa gagwe.
17 Because, one loaf, one body, we, the many, are, for we, all, of the one loaf, partake.
Ga go re sepe gore re kae foo, rotlhe re ja mo senkgweng se le sengwe fela, go supa gore rotlhe re ditokololo tsa mmele o le mongwe wa ga Keresete.
18 Be looking at Israel after the flesh: —are not, they who eat the sacrifices, joint partakers with the altar?
Mme batho ba Sejuta botlhe ba ba jang ditlhabelo ba kopa nngwa ka yone tiro eo.
19 What, then, am I saying?—that, an idol-sacrifice, is anything? or that, an idol, is anything?
Keleka go reng? A ka re medimo ya disetwa o baheitane ba e leretseng ditlhabelo e a tshela ka boammaaruri le gore ke medimo tota, le gore a ditlhabelo tse di na le tlhwatlhwa nngwe? Nnyaa, ga ke rialo.
20 On the contrary—that, the things which the nations sacrifice, unto demons, and not unto God, they sacrifice; and I wish not that ye should become, sharers together with the demons!
Se ke se buang ke gore batho ba ba ntshetsang medimo e ya disetwa dijo, ba ikopantse mmogo mo go direleng mewa e e maswe ditlhabelo, tota e seng Modimo. Mme ga ke rate ope wa lona a nna le kabelo epe le mewa e e maswe fa loo ja dijo tse di tshwanang le tsa baheitane, tse di diretsweng mewa e e maswe.
21 Ye cannot be drinking—a cup of the Lord, and a cup of demons; ye cannot be partaking of, a table of the Lord, and a table of demons.
Ga lo kake lwaa nwa senwelo fa lomating lwa bojelo lwa Morena le fa go lwa ga Satane. Ga lo kake lwaa ja senkgwe fa lomating lwa Morena le fa lomating lwa ga Satane.
22 Or are we to provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we mightier than he?
Ke eng? A o leka Morena go go galefela. A o nonofile go mo feta?
23 All things are allowable—but, not all things, are profitable, —all things are allowable—but, not all things, upbuild.
O gololesegile go ja dijo tse di abetsweng medimo ya disetwa fa o batla go di ja; ga se kgatlhano le molao wa Modimo go ja dijo tse di ntseng jalo, mme ga go reye gore o tswelele pele go go dira. Go ka nna ga letlelesega, mme ga go kake ga nna botoka ga ba ga nna le thuso epe.
24 Let, no one, be seeking, what concerneth himself, but that which concerneth some one else.
Se ikakanyetse fela ka bo wena. Leka go akanyetsa motho yo mongwe le ene, le se se mo siametseng.
25 Whatsoever, in the market, is sold, eat, —asking no question, for conscience sake;
Se lo tshwanetseng go se dira ke se: Jaang nama nngwe le nngwe e lo e batlang e e rekisiwang kwa matlhabelong. Se botseng gore a e ka ne e abetswe medimo ya disetwa, e se re kgotsa karabo ya lo koafatsa.
26 For, unto the Lord, belongeth the earth, and the fullness thereof.
Gonne lefatshe le sengwe le sengwe se se molemo mo go lone ke sa Morena ebile ke sa gago go se akola.
27 If one of them who believe not invite you, and ye are disposed to go, whatsoever is set before you, eat, —asking no question, for conscience sake.
Fa mongwe yo e seng Mokeresete a go kopa go ya dijong nae, tswelelang amogela taletso fa o batla. Ja sengwe le sengwe se se mo lomating lwa bojelo o se ka wa botsa dipotso dipe kaga sone. Mme ga o nke o itse go re a di diretswe medimo ya disetwa kgotsa nnyaa, le gone ga o kitla o nna le segakolodi se se bokoa morago ga o di ja.
28 But, if anyone should say unto you, —This, is, a holy sacrifice, do not eat, for that man’s sake who disclosed it, and for conscience sake: —
Mme fa mongwe a go tlhagisa gore nama e e abetswe medimo ya disetwa jalo se e je ka ntlha ya motho yo o go boleletseng, le ka segakolodi sa gagwe.
29 But, conscience, I mean, not thine own, but the other’s, —for why is my freedom to be judged by another’s conscience?
Mo lebakeng le, maikutlo a gagwe kaga tsone ke selo sa botlhokwa, e seng a gago. Mme o ka botsa gore ka go reng, a ke tshwanetse go kaelwa le go laolelwa ka se mongwe a se akanyang?
30 If, I, with gratitude, partake, why am I to be defamed, as to that for which, I, give thanks?
Fa ke ka leboga Modimo ka dijo mme ke di itumelela ke eng fa mongwe a ka letlelelwa go senya sengwe le sengwe fela ka gore o akanya gore ga se a siama?
31 Whether, therefore, ye eat or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do, all things to the glory of God.
Go siame, ke tlaa lo bolelela gore ke eng. Ke ka gore o tshwanetse go dira sengwe le sengwe mo kgalaletsong ya Modimo, le e leng go ja le go nwa ga gago.
32 Give no occasion of stumbling—whether to Jews, or to Greeks, or to the assembly of God:
Jalo se nne sekgopi mo go ope, le fa e ka bo e le Bajuta, kgotsa Badichaba kgotsa Bakeresete.
33 Even as, I also, in all things do please all, not seeking my own profit, but that of the many, that they may be saved.
Seo ke leano le ke le latelang le nna. Ke leka go itumedisa mongwe le mongwe mo go sengwe le sengwe se ke se dirang, e seng go dira se ke se ratang kgotsa se se ntshwanetseng, fa e se se se siametseng ba bangwe, gore ba tle ba bolokwe.
