1 Corinthians 8
1 Now, concerning the idol-sacrifices, we are aware—because we, all, have knowledge, —knowledge, puffeth up, but, love, buildeth up;
Mɔla po, tin maadi mani t padinandi maama. Tin ban yaali “t bani, ki yua kuli bani li niman nni.
2 If anyone thinketh that he knoweth anything, not yet knoweth he, as he must needs come to know,
Mi banma daano waangi oba i, ama yua pia mi buama liba daano. Nilo ya yedi k o bani, ama wan ya bani k o da ki bani ki gbeni.
3 But, if anyone loveth God, the same, is known of him—
Ama yua bua u tienu, u tienu mɔ bani wani.
4 Concerning, then, the eating of idol-sacrifices, we are aware—that an idol is, nothing, in the world, and that, none, is God save one.
Yaali ntie ti padnandi ya ŋmanma, t bani ki padli ki tie pu, k u tienu mɔ tie yendi'o.
5 For, if indeed there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or upon earth, —as indeed there are gods many and lords many,
Kelima a bona boncianli ye polu po yeni tinga nni ke bi niba yiil u tienu, ke li gɔa tie mɔmɔma ki dugini boncianli ya po u tienu buoli yabi.
6 [Yet], to us, there is one God the Father, of whom are all things, and, we, for him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and, we, through him.
Ama t ya po u tienu tie yendo o, jesu kristo, yua ya po i ke bonli kuli ye, ke ti mɔa pia i miani,
7 Howbeit, not in all, is the knowledge; but, some, by their familiarity, until even now, with the idol, as an idol-sacrifice, eat it, and, their conscience, being, weak, is defiled.
Yeni li kuli ne boncianli ki bani ki tie yeni, bonciali bo maani ti padinandi ŋmanma hali yeni mɔlane. Bani ki se ke li paa yeni, bi gɔa jɔgini bi maalima nni.
8 Food, indeed, will not commend us unto God, —neither, if we eat not, do we lack, nor, if we eat, do we abound.
Mi jiema ka bu todi'ti ke tin ŋanbi ke nagini u tienu, li jiema ki pugidi ti liba kuli, ti ya din gɔga, li gɔ kan wadi'ti bonli.
9 But be taking heed, lest, by any means, your right, itself, become, an occasion of stumbling, unto the weak;
Ŋanbi ki diidi mani, ke da cedi ke yin yal iba po n cedi ke yuan k ŋanbi ki sie te da baa.
10 For, if anyone should see [thee] who hast knowledge, in an idol-temple, reclining, will not, his conscience, being, weak, be built up for the eating of the idol-sacrifices?
Ki dugini, nilo ya la'ŋa ka kaa ki di o tingbandiegun nni, li kan paani o mɔ ya pali wan di ii?
11 In fact, he that is weak, is being destroyed, by thy knowledge—the brother for whose sake Christ died.
Ŋan yedi ka pia mi banma po ba te cedi ki yua da ki paagi wan bia, lani n tie a ninja yua ki jesu bo kpe o po yeni.
12 But, in thus sinning against the brethren am wounding their conscience, seeing it is weak, against Christ, are ye sinning.
A ya biidi a naataani ke gɔa biid bi pala, a biidi jesu n yeni.
13 Therefore, if food is an occasion of stumbling unto my brother, in nowise will I eat flesh unto the age that abideth, —that, I may not occasion, my brother, to stumble. (aiōn g165)
Lani cedi mi jiema po ya ba cedi nilo n ba ti biidin nni, n kan di lan jiema k da tua tantudli n naataanu po. (aiōn g165)
