1 Corinthians 7
1 Now, concerning the things whereof ye wrote, it were, good, for a man, not to touch, a woman;
Naa! Leleꞌ ia au ae suraꞌ soꞌal dala-dalaꞌ fo mitane sia hei susura ma mae, “Ona bee na? Malole lenaꞌ, touꞌ ra afiꞌ sao, do?”
2 But, on account of fornications, let, each man, have, his own wife, and, each woman, have, her own husband:
Taꞌo ia: huu hambu kakaꞌeꞌ naeꞌ fo atahori bisa tudꞌa sia hohongge-bubꞌuniꞌ a, naeni de malole lenaꞌ touꞌ esa sao akaꞌ inaꞌ esa. Onaꞌ naa boe, inaꞌ esa sao akaꞌ touꞌ esa boe.
3 Unto the wife, let the husband render what is her due, and, in like manner, the wife also, unto the husband, —
Sao touꞌ re! Afiꞌ momopo saom hak na, fo sungguꞌ naꞌabꞌue no nggo. Sao inaꞌ re! Afiꞌ momopo saom hak na, fo sungguꞌ naꞌabꞌue no nggo.
4 The wife, over her own body, hath not authority, but the husband, and, in like manner, the husband also, over his own body, hath not authority, but the wife.
Huu inaꞌ fee aon fo dadꞌi touꞌ a enan ena. Boe ma touꞌ a o fee aon fo dadꞌi inaꞌ a enan boe.
5 Be not depriving one another—unless perhaps by consent for a season, that ye may have leisure for prayer, and, again, may be together, —lest Satan be tempting you by reason of your want of self-control.
De esa afiꞌ tola esa, huu hei ruꞌa nggi miꞌena hak! Te mete ma mae hule-oꞌeꞌ a, ma nda nau duꞌa dalaꞌ laen ra sa, bisa miꞌitataaꞌ mbei fo nda sungguꞌ miꞌibꞌue losaꞌ a sa. Sadꞌi touꞌ-inaꞌ ola-olaꞌ no maloleꞌ dei, ma mala haraꞌ sa onaꞌ naa. Boe ma mete ma hule-oꞌe basa na, malole lenaꞌ ruꞌa nggi miꞌibꞌue baliꞌ leo. Mete ma nda taꞌo naa sa, na soe ena! Huu nitu ra malanggan kokoe mudꞌaꞌ atahori nda mana maꞌatataa beꞌiꞌ aon sa.
6 This, however I am saying, by way of concession, not of injunction;
Dalaꞌ ia au mana olaꞌ, nda Lamatualain hohoro-lalanen sa.
7 Besides, I desire all men to be, even as myself, —but, each one, hath his, personal, gift from God, one, after this manner, and, another, after that.
Tungga dudꞌuꞌa ngga, na, malole lenaꞌ atahori afiꞌ sao, onaꞌ au ia. Te Lamatualain fee atahori esa-esaꞌ papala-babꞌanggiꞌ nandaa no e. Hambu atahori ruma Ana fee se sao. Boe ma hambu atahori ruma fai Ana nda fee se sao sa.
8 But I say, to the unmarried, and to the widows, good, were it for them, that they should abide, even as I;
Au ae ufadꞌe touꞌ ma inaꞌ nda feꞌe mana saoꞌ sa, ma ina falu ra, fo, malole lenaꞌ afiꞌ sao onaꞌ au sie boe.
9 But, if they have not self-control, let them marry, for, better, is it, to marry than to burn.
Te mete ma nda bisa miꞌitataaꞌ mala ao mara sa na, malole lenaꞌ sao. Malole lenaꞌ atahori sao, te hokoꞌ, na, eni hihiin bisa nalutu baliꞌ aon.
10 To the married, however, I give charge—not, I, but the Lord, —that, a wife, from her husband, do not depart, —
Naa, ia nda miaꞌ a au mesaꞌ nggo sa. Huu au ae ufadꞌe saa fo hita Lamatuan parenda neu atahori manasaoꞌ ra nae, sao inaꞌ afiꞌ mahelaꞌ mo sao ma.
11 But, if she should even depart, let her remain unmarried, or, to her husband, be reconciled; and let not, a husband, leave, his wife.
Te mete ma ana lao hela sao toun, na, sudꞌi boe sao seluꞌ fai. Malole lenaꞌ, heoꞌ baliꞌ fo mudame mo touꞌ a. Onaꞌ naa boe, touꞌ afiꞌ mahelaꞌ mo sao ma.
12 But, unto the rest, say, I—not the Lord, —if, any brother, hath, a wife that believeth not, and, she, is well pleased to dwell with him, let him not leave her;
Naa, ia mia au mesaꞌ nggo, nda mia hita Lamatuan sa. Boe ma atahori laen ra, au ae olaꞌ taꞌo ia: mete ma hambu atahori saraniꞌ fo sao inan nda namahere neu Kristus sa, na, afiꞌ hela hendi e, mete ma saon nataa nasodꞌa nakandoo no e.
13 And, a woman who hath a husband that believeth not, and, he, is well pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave her husband; —
Onaꞌ naa boe, mete ma hambu inaꞌ fo saon nda namahere neu Kristus sa, na, afiꞌ hela hendi touꞌ a, mete ma touꞌ a nau sira ruꞌa se rasodꞌa raꞌabꞌue rakandoo.
14 For the husband that believeth not is hallowed in the wife, and the wife that believeth not is hallowed in the brother: else were, your children, impure, but, now, are they, pure.
Huu touꞌ fo nda namahere Kristus sa dadꞌi ndoo-meuꞌ boe, huu nenepaꞌaꞌ no sao inan naa. Boe ma inaꞌ fo nda mana namahere neu Lamatuaꞌ sa dadꞌi ndoo-meuꞌ boe, huu nenepaꞌaꞌ no touꞌ a ena. Mete ma hokoꞌ, na, ana nara nda ndoo-meuꞌ sa. Te no dalaꞌ ia, ara hambu cap ndoo-meuꞌ sia Lamatualain matan ena.
15 But, if, the unbelieving, departeth, let him depart: the brother or the sister hath not come into bondage, in such cases, but, in peace, hath God called us.
Te mete ma hambu sao touꞌ do inaꞌ nda ramahere neu Kristus sa, lao hela saon atahori mamahereꞌ, na, hela e neuꞌ ena. Huu touꞌ do ina mamahereꞌ a nda nenepaꞌaꞌ onaꞌ naa sa ena. Lamatualain noꞌe nggi fo dadꞌi Eni atahorin, fo bisa misodꞌa no nee-nee ma mole-dame.
16 For how knowest thou, O woman, whether, thy husband, thou shalt save? Or how knowest thou, O man, whether, thy wife, thou shalt save?
Sao inaꞌ mana mamahereꞌ re! Mbei ma hei bisa fee masoi-masodꞌaꞌ neu sao mara. Mbei ma hokoꞌ boe. Sao touꞌ mana mamahereꞌ ra! Mbei ma hei bisa fee masoi-masodꞌaꞌ neu sao mara, Mbei ma hokoꞌ boe. Hei nda mihine no matetuꞌ sa.
17 If not—as the Lord hath distributed—unto each one, as God hath called, each one, so, let him be walking; —and, so, in all the assemblies, I ordain.
Onaꞌ mae taꞌo naa, te atahori tetende-nemberiin onaꞌ bee leleꞌ Lamatualain noꞌe nala dadꞌi Eni atahorin, na, nasodꞌa nakandoo taꞌo naa ena. Afiꞌ tao laen fai, huu Lamatualain mana nauli taꞌo naa. Au unori hohoro-lalaneꞌ ia ra neu basa atahori saraniꞌ ra.
18 After being circumcised, was any called? let him not become uncircumcised; in uncircumcision, hath any been called? let him not be circumcised:
Conto onaꞌ ia, mete ma hei parna sunat fo mitudꞌu mae, hei atahori Yahudi, dei de Lamatuaꞌ noꞌe nggi, na, afiꞌ mifinii sunat naa. Boe ma atahori fo nda feꞌe sunat sa leleꞌ Lamatua noꞌe se dadꞌi Eni enan, na, sudꞌi boe sunat fo dadꞌi tanda oi, sira dadꞌi Lamatuaꞌ atahorin ena.
19 The circumcision, is, nothing, and, the uncircumcision, is, nothing, —but keeping the commandments of God.
Mete ma parna sunat, na, nda naꞌena sosoan saa sa boe. Ma mete ma nda sunat sa boe o, naa o nda naꞌena sosoan saa sa boe. Mana naꞌena sosoaꞌ, naeni: hita tataon tungga Lamatualain parenda nara.
20 Each one, in the calling wherein he was called, in the same, let him abide:
Leleꞌ Lamatualain pili nala nggi dadꞌi Eni atahorin, Ana nda denu nggi sunat, do afiꞌ sunat sa. Dadꞌi hela neu fo ama taꞌoꞌ a naa leo. Nda parlu nggati sa.
21 A bond-servant, wast thou called? let it not cause thee concern; but, if thou canst even become, free, rather use it.
Au fee nekendandaaꞌ esa fai. Mete ma dadꞌi atahori aten leleꞌ Lamatuaꞌ noꞌe nggo, na, hela neu fo dadꞌi taꞌoꞌ a naa leo, nda saa sa boe. Te itaꞌ mbei ma bisa dadꞌi atahori nenemboꞌiꞌ, na, dadꞌi taꞌoꞌ naa leo! Mete ma nda bisa dadꞌi atahori nenemboꞌit sa o, nda saa sa boe.
22 For, he who in the Lord was called, being a bond-servant, is, a freed-man of the Lord: in like manner, he that was called being, a freeman, is Christ’s bond-servant: —
Huu leleꞌ Lamatuaꞌ noꞌe atahori ate esa dadꞌi atahorin, ate naa dadꞌi onaꞌ atahori nenemboꞌit mia ue-tataos fee neu Lamatuaꞌ sia ataꞌ. Boe ma leleꞌ Lamatuaꞌ noꞌe atahori nenemboꞌit esa dadꞌi Eni atahorin, leleꞌ ia atahori naa dadꞌi Kristus aten ena.
23 With a price, have ye been bought, —do not become bond-servants of men:
Kristus bae naꞌetu basa hei no felin seli! Dadꞌi ama afiꞌ dadꞌi ate soaꞌ neu atahori laen.
24 Each one, wherein he was called, brethren, in the same, let him abide with God.
Toronoo susue nggara, e! Leleꞌ Lamatuaꞌ noꞌe nala nggi dadꞌi Eni atahorin, hei tetende-nemberiim taꞌo bee, na, hela taꞌo naa leo. Sudꞌi boe nggati fai. Hela neu taꞌoꞌ a naa ena, fee neu Lamatualain.
25 But, concerning them who are virgin, injunction of the Lord, have I none; yet, a judgment, do I give, as one who hath obtained mercy from the Lord to be, faithful:
Hei mitane au soꞌal nda feꞌe masaoꞌ ra sa, mana nda parna sungguꞌ-soro raꞌabꞌue sa. Lamatualain nda nafadꞌe au soꞌal dalaꞌ naa sa. Te hei bisa mimihere saa fo au olaꞌ, huu Lamatualain natudꞌu kasian neu au. Au duꞌa taꞌo ia:
26 I consider this, then, to be, good, in the circumstances, by reason of the existing distress, —that it is, good for a man, so, to be:
Leleꞌ ia hita hambu doidꞌosoꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ. Dadꞌi mete ma atahori ona bee, na, hela taꞌoꞌ a na leo. Au masud ngga taꞌo ia:
27 Hast thou become bound to a wife? do not seek to be loosed; hast thou become loosed from a wife? do not seek a wife.
Mete ma ho nenepaꞌaꞌ mo sao ma, na, afiꞌ mboꞌi hendi e fai. Mete ma ho nda nenepaꞌaꞌ mo sao ina ma sa ena, na, sudꞌi boe sangga mae sao seluꞌ ina laen fai.
28 If, however, thou shouldst even marry, thou hast not sinned; and, if one who is virgin should marry, that one hath not sinned; —but, tribulation of the flesh, shall, such, have: —howbeit, I, spare you.
Te mete ma ho dadꞌi sao, na nda sala saa boe. Mete ma inaꞌ nda feꞌe parna sungguꞌ naꞌabꞌue no touꞌ fo dadꞌi sao, na ana nda tao salaꞌ saa sa boe. Ma misinedꞌa, te dei fo atahori masaoꞌ ra hambu sususaꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia. Au masud ngga naa fo ama afiꞌ susa taꞌo naa boe.
29 But, this, I say—the opportunity is, contracted for what remaineth—in order that, they who have wives, may be, as though they had none,
Toronoo susue nggara e! Tungga au dudꞌuꞌa ngga, taꞌo ia: fula-fai ra boe raꞌaeꞌeku, boe ma fai mateteꞌen deka-deka ena. De atahori fo masaoꞌ ra, afiꞌ mete-seꞌu neuꞌ a sao ma, te musi tao afiꞌ neu Lamatualain boe.
30 And, they who weep, as though they wept not, and, they who rejoice, as though they rejoiced not, and, they who buy, as though they possessed not,
Onaꞌ naa boe, mete ma atahori nggae, malole lenaꞌ tao manggatee ralan fo sudꞌi nggae, naa fo bisa taoafiꞌ neu Lamatualain. Mete ma hambu ruma rala nara ramahoꞌo, malole lenaꞌ tao aon onaꞌ nda ramahoꞌo sa, naa fo bisa taoafiꞌ neu Lamatualain. Mete ma hambu mana bisa banda-hasaꞌ nakandooꞌ a, malole lenaꞌ masodꞌan onaꞌ atahori nda mana naꞌena saa-saa sa boe, naa fo ana bisa taoafiꞌ neu Lamatualain.
31 And, they who use the world, as though they used it not to the full, —for the fashion of this world passeth away;
Mete ma hambu mana pake sudꞌiꞌ a sa sia raefafoꞌ ia, malole lenaꞌ ana tao aon onaꞌ atahori nda mana namahena neuꞌ a sudꞌiꞌ a saa sia raefafoꞌ ia sa, naa fo ana bisa taoafiꞌ neu Lamatualain. Huu raefafoꞌ ia lalaon dei fo sambu-lalo se.
32 And I desire you to be, without anxiety: —the unmarried man, is anxious for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord;
Au nau fo ama afiꞌ dudꞌuꞌa ia-naaꞌ. Huu atahori fo nda sao sa, fai kakaꞌeꞌn naen seli soaꞌ neu Lamatualain hihii-nanaun. Naeni de ana bisa sangga dalaꞌ fo uetao namahoꞌo Lamatualain ralan.
33 But, he that hath married, is anxious for the things of the world, how may please his wife—
Te atahori mana sao ena o musi taoafiꞌ neu raefafoꞌ ia hihii-nanaun boe. Ana nau taoafiꞌ neu soꞌal Lamatualain hihii-nanaun boe, te eni o musi sangga dalaꞌ fo tao nemehoꞌo saon boe. Naa mana tao ralan bingga-banggi ia-naa. Onaꞌ naa boe, inaꞌ fo saon nese ena, ma inaꞌ fo nda feꞌe sao sa. Ara taoafiꞌ neu soꞌal Lamatualain hihii-nanaun, naa fo ao nara ma rala nara o meuꞌ boe. Te ina masaoꞌ ra, rala nara raꞌabꞌabꞌanggi ia-naa. Huu ana nau taoafiꞌ neu Lamatualain hihii-nanaun, ma ana musi sangga dalaꞌ fo tao nemehoꞌo saon ralan.
34 And he is divided; and, the unmarried woman, or the virgin, is anxious for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy [both] in her body and in her spirit; but, she that hath married, is anxious for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
35 This, however, with a view to your own profit, am I saying, —not that, a snare, upon you, I may cast, but with a view to what is comely, and devoted unto the Lord, without distraction.
Au ufadꞌe dalaꞌ ia ra neu nggi, naa fo ama hambu mita malole nara. Au nda nau fo hei nene teꞌe-sii nalaꞌ sa. Au nanau ngga, hei tao ndoo-tetuꞌ, boe ma taoafiꞌ neu Lamatualain hihii-nanaun, naa fo dudꞌuꞌa mara afiꞌ babꞌanggi ia-naaꞌ.
36 If however anyone considereth it behaving unseemly towards his virginity, if he should be beyond the bloom of life, —and, thus, it ought to come about, what he chooseth, let him do, —he sinneth not: let them marry:
Mete ma hambu touꞌ esa nae sao nala inaꞌ esa, too na dai ena, na, hela se sao leo. Lelanan fai mete ma touꞌ naa nda naꞌatataaꞌ nala aon sa. Ara nda tao salaꞌ saa sa boe. Afiꞌ losa ara akaꞌ raꞌadꞌedꞌeaꞌ rakandooꞌ a, boe ma neu fai maꞌabꞌuin ma, touꞌ naa tao dala nda matetuꞌ ra sa.
37 But, he that standeth in his heart, steadfast, having no necessity, but hath authority concerning his own will, and, this, hath determined in his own heart, —to preserve his own virginity, well shall he do.
Te mete ma ana naꞌatataaꞌ nala aon, na afiꞌ neꞌesusuuꞌ e sao lai-lai. Huu ana nahine eni nae tao saa. Hela neu fo ana naꞌatataaꞌ dooꞌ o malole boe.
38 So that, he that giveth in marriage his own virginity, doeth, well; and, he that giveth it not, shall do, better.
Dadꞌi touꞌ mana sao nala inaꞌ fo eni hiiꞌ a, naa maloleꞌ. Boe ma nda manasaoꞌ a saa o, malole lenaꞌ fai.
39 A wife, is bound for as long a time as her husband is living; but, if the husband have fallen asleep, she is, free, to be married unto whom she pleaseth, —only, in the Lord;
Sao ina nenepaꞌaꞌ no sao touꞌ losa mate. Te mete ma saon mate ena, na, ana o bisa sao seluꞌ boe, sadꞌi sao feun naa atahori mana namahere neu Kristus.
40 But, happier, is she, if, so, she remain, —in my judgment; for I think, I also, have the Spirit of God.
Tungga dudꞌuꞌa ngga na, malole lenaꞌ ina falu a sudꞌi boe sao fai. Au duꞌa ae nenoriꞌ ia mia Lamatualain Dula-dalen mana sia au e.
