1 Corinthians 1

1 I, Paul, [am writing this letter]. Sosthenes, our fellow believer, is with [me as I write it]. [God] appointed me to be an apostle of Christ Jesus because that is what God desired.

لە پۆڵس، ‏بانگکراو لەسەر خواستی خودا، تاکو ببێت بە نێردراوی عیسای مەسیح، هەروەها لە سۆستانیسی برامانەوە،

2 [I am sending this letter] to all you who are God’s believers in Corinth [city]. You have been set apart [by God] {[God] has set you apart} for himself because (of your close relationship with/you belong to) Christ Jesus. God has appointed you to be his people and to live in a morally pure way, just like he has appointed all the people everywhere who belong to him to live in a morally pure way. You and they have trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ [MTY]. He is their sovereign Lord as well as the sovereign Lord of all of us [(inc)] who have trusted in him.

بۆ کڵێسای خودا لە شاری کۆرنسۆس، ئەوانەی بە یەکبوون لەگەڵ عیسای مەسیح پیرۆزکراون و بانگکراون بۆ پیرۆزبوون، لەگەڵ ئەوانەی لە هەموو شوێنێکدا بە ناوی عیسای مەسیحی خاوەن شکۆمانەوە نزا دەکەن، کە گەورەی ئێمە و ئەوانیشە:

3 We [(exc)] desire that God, who is our [heavenly] Father, and Jesus Christ, who is our sovereign Lord, will continue to act kindly toward you and cause you to experience [inner] peace.

با نیعمەت و ئاشتی لە خودای باوکمان و عیسای مەسیحی خاوەن شکۆوە لەگەڵتان بێت.

4 I very often [HYP] thank God for you because he has acted toward you kindly, acting in ways that you do not deserve. He has done this because of your (having a close relationship with/being united to) Christ Jesus.

بەهۆی ئێوەوە هەمیشە سوپاسی خودام دەکەم، بۆ ئەو نیعمەتەی خودا کە بەهۆی عیسای مەسیحەوە پێتان دراوە.

5 That is, [God] has [HYP] helped you spiritually very much because of your (having a close relationship with/being united to) Christ. Specifically, God has very much [HYP] enabled you to speak messages [that his Spirit revealed to you], and he has very much enabled you to know many things [HYP] that his Spirit revealed to you.

بە یەکبوون لەگەڵ ئەودا لە هەموو بوارێکەوە دەوڵەمەند بوون، لە هەموو وتە و زانینێک.

6 In that way, [he] confirmed to you that what we [(exc)] proclaimed about Christ is true.

خودا بەو شێوەیە شایەتی ئێمە بۆ مەسیح لە ئێوەدا دەچەسپێنێت.

7 As a result, while you wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to return, within your group you truly have [LIT] every ability that [God’s] Spirit gives [to believers].

بۆیە لە هیچ بەهرەیەک کەموکوڕیتان نییە، لە کاتێکدا بە پەرۆشەوە چاوەڕوانی دەرکەوتنی عیسای مەسیحی پەروەردگارمانن.

8 God will also cause you to steadfastly [trust Christ to the very end of your lives] [EUP]. The result will be that God will not consider you guilty [of any sin] when our Lord Jesus Christ returns to earth [MTY].

ئەو هەتا کۆتایی دەتانچەسپێنێت، تاکو لە ڕۆژی عیسای مەسیحی پەروەردگارماندا بێ گلەیی بن.

9 You can depend on God to do that. He is the one who chose you to become intimately associated with his Son, Jesus Christ, who is our Lord.

خودا بەوەفایە، ئەوەی بانگی کردن بۆ پێکەوە ژیان لەگەڵ کوڕەکەی، عیسای مەسیحی خاوەن شکۆمان.

10 My fellow believers, by the authority of [MTY] our Lord Jesus Christ, I urgently appeal to all of you to agree with one another. What I mean is, stop dividing into groups. Instead, be united [MET] concerning what you understand [about spiritual matters], and be united in what you decide.

ئەی خوشکان و برایان، بە ناوی عیسای مەسیحی خاوەن شکۆمان لێتان دەپاڕێمەوە کە هەمووتان یەک هەڵوێست بن، دووبەرەکی لەنێوانتاندا نەبێت، بەڵکو هەمووتان یەک بیر و ڕاتان هەبێت.

11 My fellow believers, [I urge this] because some members of Chloe’s household have told me that you are quarreling among yourselves.

خوشک و برایانم، ماڵی خلۆیی هەواڵیان دامێ کە ناکۆکی لەنێوانتاندا هەیە.

12 That is, some of you say, “Paul is the one to whom we [are loyal],” and others say, “Peter is the one to whom we [are loyal],” and still others say, “Christ is the one to whom we [are loyal].”

مەبەستم ئەمەیە: یەکێکتان دەڵێت: «من هی پۆڵسم»، یەکێکی دیکە: «من هی ئەپۆلۆسم»، یان «من هی پەترۆسم»، یان «من هی مەسیحم.»

13 [It is ridiculous that] [RHQ] [you are quarreling and] dividing up [into groups instead of being loyal to] Christ alone. Christ certainly has not divided himself into parts and distributed those parts out [to groups of people who oppose each other]! [MET, RHQ] I, Paul, certainly did not die on the cross for you! [RHQ] When you were baptized {When someone baptized you}, you certainly did not promise that you were submitting to me! [RHQ]

ئایا مەسیح بەشکراوە؟ یان پۆڵس لە پێناوتاندا لە خاچ دراوە؟ یان بە ناوی پۆڵس لە ئاو هەڵکێشران؟

14 I thank [God] that Crispus and Gaius were the only ones from among you whom I baptized.

سوپاس بۆ خودا کەستانم لە ئاو هەڵنەکێشا، کریسپۆس و گایۆس نەبێت،

15 As a result, no one [there in Corinth except those two] can say, “Paul baptized me so that I would become (his disciple/submissive to him).”

نەوەک یەکێک بڵێت بە ناوی منەوە لە ئاو هەڵکێشراوە.

16 [Now I remember that] I also baptized the household of Stephanas, but I do not remember baptizing anyone else [there].

هەروەها ستیفاناس و خاووخێزانەکەیم لە ئاو هەڵکێشاوە، جگە لەمانە نازانم کەسی دیکەم لە ئاو هەڵکێشابێت،

17 Christ sent me not [primarily] to baptize people but to preach the good message about him. When I do that, he does not want me to use words that human philosophers [consider] wise [IRO]. I do not want the message about [what] he [accomplished when he was nailed to] the cross [MTY] to lose its power.

چونکە مەسیح نەیناردووم بۆ لەئاوهەڵکێشان، بەڵکو بۆ مزگێنیدان، ئەمەش نەک بە دانایی و قسەی زیرەکانە، نەوەک هێزی خاچی مەسیح پووچەڵ بێتەوە.

18 Those who are perishing spiritually [because they do not believe that message consider] that the message [about what Christ accomplished when he was nailed to the] cross [MTY] [is] foolish. But to us who are being saved {whom [God] is saving} [spiritually because we believe that message], it [demonstrates that] God acts powerfully [in order to save us].

پەیامی خاچ بۆ لەناوچووان گێلایەتییە، بەڵام بۆ ئێمەی ڕزگاربووان هێزی خودایە.

19 [It is like what God said that] a prophet wrote long ago, [By the things that I will do], I will show that the ideas of those who [think] [IRO] they are wise are completely useless. I will ignore the ideas that they think are [IRO] so smart.

لەبەر ئەوەی نووسراوە: [دانایی داناکان لەناودەبەم، تێگەیشتنی تێگەیشتووان بەلاوە دەنێم.]

20 So, do you know [what God thinks] about what [RHQ] people who [IRO] consider themselves to be wise and scholars and philosophers say? [He does not pay attention to what they say, because] [RHQ] he has shown clearly that what unbelievers [think is] [IRO] wise is [not wise at all], but is really foolish. (aiōn g165)

کوا دانا؟ کوا مامۆستای تەورات؟ کوا کەسی بە دەموزاری ئەم دنیایە؟ ئایا خودا دانایی ئەم جیهانەی نەکردووەتە گێلایەتی؟ (aiōn g165)

21 God, acting very wisely, made it impossible for unbelievers to know God by doing what they thought was [IRO] wise. Instead, he was happy to save those who trust [in Christ] as the result of their hearing [the message that] was proclaimed to them, a message that others consider to be foolish.

خودا بە دانایی خۆی، مەبەستی بوو کە خەڵک بیناسێت، نەک لە ڕێگەی دانایی جیهانەوە، بەڵکو خودا ویستی لە ڕێگەی مزگێنییەوە باوەڕداران ڕزگار بکات، ئەو مزگێنییەی خەڵکانێک بە گێلایەتی دەزانن.

22 The Jews want [people to prove, by performing] miracles, [that their message is true]. The non-Jews want to hear only messages consisting of talk that they consider to be very wise.

جولەکە داوای نیشانە دەکەن و یۆنانی هەوڵی دانایی دەدەن،

23 As for us, we proclaim [the message about what] Christ [accomplished for us when] he was nailed {[when they] nailed him} to the cross. That message offends Jews [because they do not think that the Messiah will die, and] non-Jews think it is [IRO] a foolish message.

بەڵام ئێمە مەسیحی لەخاچدراو جاڕدەدەین، بۆ جولەکە کۆسپە و بۆ نەتەوەکان گێلایەتییە،

24 But to us whom God has chosen to belong to himself, both Jews and non-Jews, that message shows that God acted powerfully and wisely [by sending] Christ [to die] for us.

بەڵام بۆ بانگکراوان، جولەکە و ناجولەکە، مەسیح هێز و دانایی خودایە،

25 [Unbelievers may think] [IRO] [that] God was [acting] foolishly [by doing that], but [the truth is that] he was acting more wisely than unbelievers who [just think that] [IRO] they are wise. And unbelievers may think that God was [acting] weakly [by sending his son to die], but he was acting more powerfully than unbelievers who [just think] [IRO] [that they] act powerfully.

چونکە گێلایەتیی خودا لە دانایی مرۆڤ داناترە و لاوازیی خودا لە بەهێزیی مرۆڤ بەهێزترە.

26 My fellow believers, remember what [kind of people you] were when God chose you. [Not many of you] whom he chose are people whom [unbelievers considered to be] wise. Very few of you were considered to be important. Very few of you came from families with a high social standing.

ئەی خوشک و برایان، بیربکەنەوە چۆن بوون کاتێک خودا بانگی کردن. بەپێی پێوانە مرۆییەکان کەمتان دانا بوون، هەروەها کەم کەستان توانادار و لە بنەماڵەی ناودار بوون.

27 Instead, it was [usually] those whom [unbelievers considered to be] foolish whom God chose. He did that in order to shame/discredit those whom [unbelievers consider] [IRO] wise. It was [usually] those [whom unbelievers] considered [IRO] unimportant whom God chose, in order to shame/discredit those whom unbelievers consider important.

بەڵام خودا ئەوانەی هەڵبژارد کە بەلای جیهانەوە گێلن، تاکو داناکان شەرمەزار بن، لاوازەکانی هەڵبژارد تاکو بەهێزەکان شەرمەزار بن.

28 It was usually those who are despised and considered {whom [unbelievers] despise and consider} worthless whom God chose, in order to make completely ineffective [what unbelievers consider to be important].

خودا پایەنزمەکانی جیهان و ڕق لێبووەوە و ئەوانەی هەڵبژارد کە هیچ نەبوون، تاکو ئەوانە لەناوببات کە خۆیان بە شت دەزانن،

29 [He did that] in order that no one could boast to God about being wise or important.

بۆ ئەوەی هیچ مرۆڤێک لەبەردەم خودا شانازی نەکات.

30 It is because of what God [has done] that you (have a close relationship with/belong to) Christ Jesus. God [put into effect] his wise [plan to save us] by what Christ did for us. As a result of what Christ did, God erases the record of our sins, sets us apart for himself, and frees us from our being guilty [for our sins].

بەڵام ئێوە بەهۆی خوداوە لەگەڵ عیسای مەسیحدا بوونە یەک، کە خودا بۆ ئێمەی کرد بە دانایی و ڕاستودروستی و پیرۆزکردن و کڕینەوە،

31 So, it is the Lord whom we should boast about, [not about one spiritual leader being better than another]. We should do as ([a prophet/Jeremiah]) wrote [in the Scriptures that we should do]: Those who boast should boast [only] about what the Lord [has done].

تاکو وەک ئەوەی نووسراوە: [ئەوەی شانازی دەکات، با شانازی بە یەزدانەوە بکات.]
