1 Corinthians 10
1 My fellow believers, I want to remind you about our(exc) [Jewish] ancestors. They were all under the cloud [by which God miraculously led them and protected them when they left Egypt with Moses]. All those ancestors crossed the [Red] Sea [after God miraculously made the water separate so that they could walk through it].
Innyara irusa, ni henu, aka coo uru wara ana dizi Uganjimari wa kuri wa tarsa anyumo uraba udandang.
2 God caused all of them to begin to live under the authority of [MTY] Moses [when they walked] under that cloud and [walked through the Red] Sea.
Vat uwe awuza we ubaptisma angumo ama ganjimari nan uraba udandang.
3 All [those ancestors of ours ate the same food that God] miraculously [provided].
Vat uwe waree imum yarce ibibe biririn usandu inde.
4 They all drank water that [God] miraculously [provided]. That is, they all drank water that God miraculously made come out of the rock. That rock was [a symbol of] [MET] Christ, who went with them. [So we conclude that God helped all of those people in many ways].
Vat uwe wa si imum usa ibibe biririn usandu inde. Barki sa wa si ahira ani poo nibibe biririn sa na tarsi we, nipoo me ninee nini vana Asere.
5 However, [we also conclude that] God was angry [LIT] with most of those people [because they sinned against him. He caused almost all of them to die, and as] a result their bodies were scattered in the desert.
Daki Ugomo Asere maa kunna urunta uma roo mawe ba, mukizi muwe me mu samirka anija.
6 Those things [that happened long ago] became examples to teach us [the following things]: We should not desire to [do] evil things as those people desired to do.
Ana me timum tigeme imum ubatta ini ahira aruu, kati ti inki timum tibur amuruba kasi wenne ba.
7 We should not worship idols as many of those people did. [Remember that Moses] wrote, “The people sat down. They ate and drank [to honor the golden calf that they had just made]. Then they got up to dance [immorally].”
Kati icukuno anu tarsa umakiri kasi āye sa waa wuzi. Kasi unyertike sa āwuzi, “Anu waka vukuno wa ri wa si wa kuri wahirri wawuzi biranza.”
8 We should not have sexual relations with someone to whom we are not married, as many of them did. As a result, God [punished them by] causing 23,000 people to die in [only] one day.
Kati timussi wana nee naa anu ruma mabura nan inyani sa inzo aru wani ba, kasi maroo mawe me, roni inde anuu a ino ukiran kana kuru are inkani kataru wa wee.
9 We should not try to see how much we can sin without the Lord punishing us. Some of them did that, and as a result they died because [poisonous] snakes [bit them].
Kati timansa vana Asere kasi sa maroo mawe mawuzi, iwa ihuzzi we.
10 We should not complain [about what God does]. Some of them did that, and as a result an angel destroyed them. [So God will certainly punish us if we sin like they did].
Kati ticukuno anu humoro kasi weme, wa wiji atari tibibe bika dura ka Asere biwono.
11 All those things [that happened to our ancestors long ago] are examples for us. [Moses] wrote those things to warn us [who are living at this time which is near the end]. We are the people for whom God has done [the things that he decided to do in] the previous periods of time. (aiōn g165)
Timum tigeme takem we bati icuunon duru imum ubatta. A nyertike icukuno imum ikubum, haru ande sa umara unee wa aye ace aruu. (aiōn g165)
12 So [I say this to] all those who confidently [think that they will always] steadfastly continue to [believe what God said and will never disobey what he commanded]: Be careful that you [(sg)] do not sin [when you are tempted].
Barki anime, ca komdevi magamari memmerum, ma wuzi merum kati marizi.
13 [Remember that] your desires to sin are the same desires that other people have. But when you are tempted to sin, you can trust God [to help you]. He will not permit you to be tempted {anything to tempt you} more than you are able to resist. Instead, when you are tempted {things tempt you}, he will also provide a way [for you] to endure it [without sinning].
Umansa uda ayeshi, uge sa wamu aye anyumo uvat anuu ba. Anyo, Asere ahuma ani. Madā cekime amansa shi unu mansa sa udi aki nikara nishi ba. Madi nya shi unaa uroo anyumo ubata me sa adi wuzi shi.
14 So, [I say to] you people whom I love, [avoid] worshipping idols [just like you would] run away from [anything that is dangerous].
Barki anime shi ande sa mahemshi cekini utarsa umakiri.
15 It is to people who [think that they] are wise that I write. So, you, as wise people, judge whether what I am writing [is true].
Inzi tize nan shi kasi anuu bassa ukang, bati I batti imum sa inboo shi.
16 [During the Lord’s Supper, after we ask God to] bless (the [wine]/the [juice]) [in the] cup, we give thanks for it [and drink it]. By doing that, we certainly are [RHQ] sharing in what Christ [did for us when] his blood [flowed from his body when he died. During the Lord’s Supper, when we break] the bread [and eat it], we are certainly sharing in [MTY] what Christ [did for us when] his body [suffered for us on the cross]. [RHQ]
Kusso kuringirka kuge sa tizin unu tingirka me, inzo nigome nine anyumo amaye ma vana Asere? Ubiredi me sa tizin upozo me, inzo nigome nine anyume vana Asere?
17 Because it is one loaf of bread that we [break and eat during the Lord’s Supper, it symbolizes that] we who are many are one group, because we all eat from the one loaf.
Barki ubiredi u'inde uni, haru gbardan ani pum ni'inde. Vat uruu tidi rii ubiredi u'inde nigome.
18 Consider [what happens when] the Israeli people [eat the food that the priests] sacrifice on the altar [outside the Temple]. They participate in [what the priests do at] [MTY] the altar. [RHQ] [Similarly, if you eat food that non-believers have offered to an idol in a temple, you are participating in their worship of the idol there].
Irani anuu Isaraila; ida rusa shi ba ana katuma udenge Asere wakenzi imum yaree abinime ani ba?
19 By saying that, [I] do not mean that offering food to an idol makes it anything [more than just ordinary food [RHQ].] I do not mean that an idol is anything [more than just an idol].
Nyani ni in gusan shi ani me? Makiri imum ini? Nani imumare sa anyinza makiri, ire imum ini?
20 No! Instead, I mean that what people sacrifice [to idols], they are sacrificing to demons, not to God. So, [if you eat food that has been sacrificed to idols, you are participating in worshipping the demons that the idols represent]. And I do not want you to participate in worshipping demons!
Mi inzin tize atimum sa anu zatu tarse Asere wa ninza, wa ninza agberge ne wani inzo asere ba. Inda nyaram Iwuzi tanu nan agbergene ba.
21 When you drink the [grape juice/wine in] [MTY] the cup [at the Lord’s Supper], you cannot participate in the [blessings that] the Lord [Jesus] brought to us and at the same time drink the [wine in the] [MTY] cup that people offer to demons! When you eat at the Lord’s table, you cannot participate in the blessings the Lord provided [MTY] when he died for us and at the same time participate in the things that represent demons [by eating food that has been sacrificed to idols]
Ida saa shi aku soo ku Ugomo Asere ikuri isii ka gbergene ba, ida ree shi imum yaree Ugomo Asere ikuri iree ya gbergene ba.
22 [If you participate in honoring demons in that way], you will certainly make the Lord very angry [RHQ]! (Remember that you are certainly not stronger than he is./Do you think that you are stronger than he is?) [RHQ] [Certainly not, so you will not escape his punishing you if you honor demons in that way!]
Nani tinyara tiwu Ugomo Asere ni'eru? Titeki me nikara?
23 [Some people say], “[God] permits [believers to do] anything.” But [I say that] not everything that people do benefits [those who do it! Yes, some people say], “God permits [believers to do] all things.” But not everything that people do helps them to become [spiritually] mature.
“Kondi nyani izi rep,” Inzo kondi nyani izin katuma ba, “Kondi nyani izi rep” inzo kondi nyanini I'eze unure aje anu ba.
24 No one should try to benefit [only] himself. Instead, each person should try to benefit other people [spiritually].
Kati uye ma nyari ubura unicee nume ba, anime manyari ubura uhenu.
25 [This is what you should do]: Eat any [food] that is sold {that people sell} in the market. Do not ask questions [to find out if that food has been offered] {[someone offered that food]} [to idols, just] because you think it would be wrong [to eat such food].
Udake uree vat imum me sa azin unu ziza me ukasuwa, sārki ubasa utize.
26 [Remember that the Psalmist wrote], “Everything on the earth belongs to [the] Lord [God because he created it!]” [So, food that has been offered to idols belongs to the Lord, not to the idols, and you may eat it].
Barki “unee nan vat timum me sa tira anyumo me I Ugomo Asere ini.”
27 If a non-believer invites you to a meal, go if you want to, and eat any food that is set {that [he] sets} before you. Do not ask [whether it was offered to idols, just] because you think that it would be wrong [to eat such food].
Ingi unu zatu uhem in na Asere ma titawe agi irii imum yaree, ahun ini ruba yaree me uree vat imum me sa anya we sārki uhara Iruba.
28 But if someone says to you, “This is food that was sacrificed [to an idol],” do not eat it, for the sake of the person who told that to you, and also because someone there may think that it is wrong [to eat such food].
Ingi uye magunan hu, “Imum yaree ima kiri mani” kati uree ba. Udi wuu anime barki de sa mabuka we, nan bassa.
29 I do not mean that you [should be concerned about whether it is all right to eat such food]. What I mean is that you should be concerned about others who may think that it is wrong to eat such food. Since I know that I (am free/have the right) [to eat such food without God punishing me], no one should [RHQ] say that what I am doing is wrong just because he himself thinks that it is wrong.
In boo Ubassa ude sa mabuka we inzo ubassa uwe ba. Barki nyanini adi ziki ucara uye acani mi?
30 If I thank [God] for the food when I eat [food that has been offered to an idol], no one should criticize me for eating food for which I have thanked God [RHQ]!
Ingi ma guna ankoi barki imum yarce sa maree nyanini idi wu azogun barki sa maguna ankoi?
31 So [I say to you in conclusion], when you eat [food], or drink [something], or do anything else, do everything in order that [people will] praise God.
Barki anime, ingi uzin naree nan usaa, wuza vat barki unonzo asere.
32 Do not do anything that would hinder Jews or Greeks [from becoming believers], and do not do things that would encourage members of God’s congregations to sin.
Kati ucukuno unaa upilko, wa yanhudawa, nan Aheliniyawa nan anuu Asere ba.
33 [Do as I do]. I try to please everyone in every way. I do this by not seeking to benefit myself. Instead, I try to benefit many others, in order that they may be saved {that [God] may save them} [from the guilt of their sins].
Ma wuza morso bati in rumi vati anuu muruba vat atimun. Inzo barki nicee num ba, barki konderi: Ma wuza anime bati wa kem ubara.
