< 1 Corinthians 8 >

1 Concerning now the idol-sacrifices, we know indeed all knowledge we have. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.
Tun milim houna'a kikatdoh anneh thudol seikhom ute. Nanghon nahet nau chamkimtah chu mijousen napompeh diuvin nagel'uve. Hinla hetna hin eiho kihithei sahna eipeh laiyun, ngailutna joh hin Houbung asahdoh ahibouve.
2 If (now *k*) anyone thinks (to have known *N(k)O*) anything, (not yet *N(k)O*) (no [thing] *k*) (he knew *N(k)O*) even as it is necessary to know;
Ijakai donbutna hea kingaitoa chun hetna tahbeh aneilou ahi.
3 If however anyone loves God, he has known by Him.
Hinlah Pathen ngailu mi chu Pathen in ahetpeh mi hi ahi.
4 Concerning the eating therefore of the idol-sacrifices we know that no [thing] an idol [is] in [the] world and that [there is] no God (other *k*) only except one.
Hiti chu ahileh, milim houna'a kikatdoh saneh thu ahil'a itin tem? Aphai, eiho jousen milim hi pathen tahbeh ahipoi, chule Pathen khatseh bou aume ti iheuve.
5 Even truly if indeed if indeed there are [those] named gods whether in heaven or on (*k*) earth, as there are gods many and lords many;
Van sunga le lei chunga pathen ho tia kouthei ding uminte, chule mi phabep hon pathen tampi le pakai tampi hou tahbeh uvinte.
6 yet to us [there is] one God the Father of whom [are] the [things] all and we ourselves for Him, and one Lord Jesus Christ through whom [are] the [things] all and we ourselves through Him.
Hinlah eihon Pa chu Pathen khatseh, ijakai sempa ahin, chule eiho Ama dinga hinga ihiuve ti iheuve. Chule Pakai khatseh bou Yeshua Christa chu ahin, Ama jal'a Pathen in ijakai asema chule Ama jal'a eiho hinna eipeh u ahi.
7 But not in all [is] this knowledge; Some now (by custom *N(K)O*) until now of the idol as of an idol-sacrifice eat, and the conscience of them weak being it is defiled.
Ahinlah atahsan jousen chehi ahetsoh keiyu ahipoi. Mi phabep chun lim semthu pathen chu atahbeh a angaitouva, hitia chu limsemthu pathena lhatdohsa thil chu aneh tenguleh, pathen tahbeh hou dan'a kigeljiu ahi, chule se le pha ahetkhen nau chu asuboiyin ahi.
8 Food however us not (will commend *N(k)O*) to God; neither (for *ko*) if not we shall eat [still] do we come short [then] nor if we shall eat (have we an advantage. *NK(o)*)
Eihon ithilneh u chun, Pathen lunglhaina sodohsah ponte, ti hi adih e ti iheuve. Hichu inehlouva ahileh ima imansah u aumpon, chule ineh ujongleh ima aphachom imupouve.
9 do be careful however lest perhaps the right of you this an occasion of stumbling may become to those (weak. *N(k)O*)
Hinlah eiho ikichihtheina dingu chu, eiho ichamlhat nau chun ase le apha hetna lhasam khat'in kipalna a aneikhah louna ding hi ahi.
10 If for anyone shall see you who is having knowledge in an idol’s temple eating, surely the conscience of him weak being he will be encouraged the idol-sacrifices to eat?
Ajeh iham itileh midangin nangman hetna sangjo nanei jeh a milim houna in'a naneh chu hung muhenlang hileh, hichun amaho se-le-pha hetna aneiyu chu anahsahmo bola, milim houna a lhatdoh anneh chu aneh tahlou dingu ham?
11 (Is destroyed *N(K)O*) (for *N(k)O*) the [one] who is being weak (through *N(k)O*) your knowledge, (the *no*) brother for whom Christ died.
Hitia chu nangman hetna chungnungjo nanei jeh a, Christian alhasam khat, ajeh a Christa thi, chu nasuhmang ding ahitai.
12 Thus then sinning against the brothers and wounding their conscience being weak, against Christ you sin.
Chule nangman atahsan midang chun adihpoi, tia alung uva atahsan uchu abol ding uva natil khouva ahileh, nangma Christa dounaa chonsea nahitai.
13 Therefore if food snares the brother of mine, certainly not shall I eat meat to the age so that not the brother of mine I may snare. (aiōn g165)
Hitia hi keiman ipi ham chu kaneh jeh a atahsan midangin chonsetnaa aneileh, keiman kahin laisen sa kiti neponge, ajeh chu keiman atahsan midang khat chu kakipalsah nompon ahi. (aiōn g165)
