1 Corinthians 4
1 Let men this wyse esteme vs eve as the ministers of Christ and disposers of ye secretes of God.
Achọrọ m ka unu na-ele anyị anya dịka ndị na-ejere Kraịst ozi, ndị e nyefere ihe omimi Chineke nʼaka.
2 Furthermore it is requyred of the disposers that they be founde faithfull.
Ma ihe dị mkpa bụ na o kwesiri ka ndị na-elekọta ihe ọbụla bụrụ ndị kwesiri ntụkwasị obi.
3 With me is it but a very smal thinge that I shuld be iudged of you ether of (mans daye) No I iudge not myn awne selfe.
Anaghị m echegbu onwe m banyere ihe unu na-eche gbasara m maọbụ ihe a na-ekpe nʼụlọikpe nke mmadụ. Nʼezie, anaghị m ekpekwa onwe m ikpe.
4 I know nought by my selfe: yet am I not therby iustified. It is the Lorde that iudgeth me.
O doro m anya na akọnuche m adịghị ama m ikpe, ma nke a egosighị na m bụ onye ikpe na-amaghị. Ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị naanị ka ọ dịrị ikpe m ikpe.
5 Therfore iudge no thinge before the tyme vntill the Lorde come which will lighten thinges that are hyd in darcknes and ope the counsels of the hertes. And then shall every man have prayse of God.
Ya mere, unu ekpela ikpe tupu oge ya eruo, cherenụ ruo mgbe Onyenwe anyị nʼonwe ya ga-abịa. Ọ ga-eme ka ihe niile zoro ezo nʼọchịchịrị pụta ìhè. Ọ ga-agbakwa ọchịchọ nzuzo niile nke dị nʼobi nʼanwụ. Mgbe ahụ, onye ọbụla nʼotu nʼotu ga-anatakwa otuto ruuru ya site nʼaka Chineke.
6 These thinges brethre I have described in myn awne person and Apollos for youre sakes that ye myght learne by vs that no man coute of him selfe beyonde that which is above written: that one swell not agaynst another for eny mans cause.
Ugbu a ụmụnna m ejiri m onwe m na Apọlọs mara unu atụ maka ọdịmma nke unu, ka unu nwee ike isite nʼaka anyị mụta ihe site nʼihe ahụ e dere bụ nke na-asị, “Unu agafekwala ihe e dere nʼakwụkwọ nsọ.” Ka onye ọbụla nʼime unu hapụ iji otu onye nyaa isi ma leda ndị ọzọ anya.
7 For who preferreth the? What hast thou that thou hast not receaved? Yf thou have receaved it why reioysest thou as though thou haddest not receaved it?
Onye gwara gị na ị pụrụ iche nʼetiti mmadụ ndị ọzọ? Ọ dị ihe ọbụla i nwere nke abụghị ihe ị natara anata? Ọ bụ gịnị ka i nwere nke ị na-anataghị anata? Ma ọ bụrụ na i natara ya, gịnị mere i ji anya isi dịka a ga-asị na ị nataghị ya anata?
8 Now ye are full: now ye are made rych: ye raygne as kinges with out vs: and I wold to god ye dyd raygne that we might raygne with you.
Ma ugbu a, ihe niile zuru unu oke. Ugbu a, unu abụrụkwala ndị ọgaranya. Unu abụrụla eze ma anyị esoghị unu. Nʼezie, ọ gaara atọ m ụtọ ma a sị na unu anọrọla nʼocheeze unu, ka anyị nwe ike soro unu bụrụ eze.
9 Me thinketh that God hath set forth vs which are Apostles for the lowest of all as it were me appoynted to deeth. For we are a gasyngestocke vnto the worlde and to ye angels and to men.
Ọ na-adị m nnọọ ka Chineke o weere anyị bụ ndị ozi mee anyị ndị dịkarịsịrị ala, ndị a na-echeta naanị mgbe ihe niile na-agwụsị agwụsị, dịka ndị a mara ikpe ọnwụ. Nʼihi na-akpọpụtara anyị nʼihu ọha mmadụ mee anyị ihe nlere anya nye ụmụ mmadụ na ndị mmụọ ozi.
10 We are foles for Christes sake and ye are wyse thorow Christ. We are weake and ye are stroge. Ye are honorable and we are despised.
Anyị aghọọla ndị nzuzu nʼihi Kraịst, ma unu onwe unu bụ ndị maara ihe nʼime Kraịst. Anyị bụ ndị na-adịghị ike ma unu dị ike. Anyị bụ ndị a jụrụ ajụ na ndị a na-eleda anya, ma unu bụ ndị a na-asọpụrụ.
11 Eve vnto this daye we honger and thyrst and are naked and are boffetted wt fistes and have no certayne dwellinge place
Tutu ruo ugbu a, anyị na-ebu ọnụ nọrọkwa nʼakpịrị ịkpọ nkụ. Anyị enweghị ezigbo uwe anyị ji achụ oyi. Ndị mmadụ na-emeso anyị mmeso ọjọọ, ma anyị enweghị ebe obibi nke aka anyị.
12 and laboure workinge with oure awne hondes. We are revysed and yet we blesse. We are persecuted and suffer it.
Aka anyị ka anyị ji arụpụtara onwe anyị ihe anyị na-eri. Mgbe ndị mmadụ na-abụ anyị ọnụ, anyị na-agọzi ha. Mgbe ha na-ata anyị ahụhụ, anyị nọ na-enwe ndidi.
13 We are evyll spoken of and we praye. We are made as it were the filthynes of the worlde the ofscowringe of all thinges even vnto this tyme.
Anyị na-eji okwu dị nro na-azaghachi ndị na-ekwujọ anyị. Tutu ruo ugbu a, a na-emeso anyị mmeso dịka anyị bụ unyi ndị ụwa na-azachapụ, dịka ihe a jụrụ ajụ nʼanya ndị ụwa.
14 I write not these thinges to shame you: but as my beloved sonnes I warne you.
Anaghị m edere unu ihe ndị a ka ihere mee unu, kama ana m ede ya ịdụ unu ọdụ, na ịdọ unu aka na ntị, dịka ụmụ m hụrụ nʼanya.
15 For though ye have ten thousande instructours in Christ: yet have ye not many fathers. In Christ Iesu I have begotten you thorowe ye gospell.
Ọ bụ ezie na unu nwere ọtụtụ ndị nche, ma unu enweghị karịa otu nna. Nʼihi na ọ bụ m bụ nna unu nʼime Kraịst Jisọs, site nʼoziọma ahụ m wetaara unu.
16 Wherfore I desyre you to folowe me.
Ya mere, ana arịọ m unu, ka unu na-eṅomi ndụ m.
17 For this cause have I sent vnto you Timotheus which is my deare sonne and faithfull in the Lorde which shall put you in remembrauce of my wayes which I have in Christ eve as I teache every where in all congregacios.
Nʼihi nke a, ana m ezitere unu Timoti, bụ ezi nwa m onye m hụrụ nʼanya, nke kwesiri ntụkwasị obi nʼime Onyenwe anyị. Ọ ga-echetara unu otu m si e bi ndụ nʼime Onyenwe anyị Kraịst Jisọs, dịka m na-akụzi ya nʼebe niile na nzukọ niile.
18 Some swell as though I wolde come no more at you.
Ụfọdụ nʼime unu amalitela ịfụlị onwe ha elu, chee na mụ enweghị ike ịbịakwute unu ọzọ.
19 But I will come to you shortely yf God will: and will knowe not ye wordes of the which swell but ye power:
Ma site nʼike Onyenwe anyị, aga m abịa ịhụ unu anya nʼoge na-adịghị anya. Mgbe m bịara, aga m achọpụta ihe ndị ahụ na-akpa nganga pụrụ ime, ọ bụghị ihe ha nwere ike ikwu.
20 for ye kyngdome of God is not in wordes but in power.
Nʼihi na alaeze Chineke abụghị ihe okwu ọnụ kama ọ bụ ngosipụta ịdị ike.
21 What will ye? Shall I come vnto you with a rodde or els in love and in the sprete of mekenes?
Ya mere, unu ka ọ dịrị ịhọrọ nke unu chọrọ. Unu chọrọ ka m jiri ụtarị bịakwute unu, ka ọ bụ ka m jiri obi dị umeala na mmụọ nke ịhụnanya bịa?
