1 Corinthians 13
1 If I can speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but am destitute of Love, I have but become a loud-sounding trumpet or a clanging cymbal.
Sa ya cukuno inzin intize ina lem anabu, nan alem ibe ya Asere, in ani me inzom unu su, ma cukuno ni gareren na so akan nani biruma ba su akan.
2 If I possess the gift of prophecy and am versed in all mysteries and all knowledge, and have such absolute faith that I can remove mountains, but am destitute of Love, I am nothing.
Ko sa ya cukuno inzin in bibe biriri bi busa utize makuri ma tinka kadure ka anyimo sa ka gunne, inu rusa um nani inzin unu nya iriba, in daki mi azo iri iumum ini ba.
3 And if I distribute all my possessions to the poor, and give up my body to be burned, but am destitute of Love, it profits me nothing.
Ko sa a cukuno ma nya timumu tum vat barki anyizi anu diri, ikuri in witi nipum num barki a punsi. Inka inzom unu su, daki ma kem iri imum ba. (Ma nya unu nipum num barki inbezi ubari uni).
4 Love is patient and kind. Love knows neither envy nor jealousy. Love is not forward and self-assertive, nor boastful and conceited.
Usu um nanu tiriba nan iriba ishew im usu uda wuza ni ero nan ubezi ubari ba, usu uda wuza u yeze unice ba.
5 She does not behave unbecomingly, nor seek to aggrandize herself, nor blaze out in passionate anger, nor brood over wrongs.
Udira umu eh. Uda nonzo nice nume ba. Uzo unu debe uhirza iriba ba, uda basa me timum tizenzen.
6 She finds no pleasure in injustice done to others, but joyfully sides with the truth.
Uda wuza apuru arum un boo tize ba, in anime uwuza apuru arum in kadure.
7 She knows how to be silent. She is full of trust, full of hope, full of patient endurance.
Usu utiri zaza, iriba anyimo timum vat, uyeze, in ti timum vat u kabisa timum vat, u nyiza iriba in timum vat, ukuri ukabisa timumvat.
8 Love never fails. But if there are prophecies, they will be done away with; if there are languages, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be brought to an end.
Usu uda marsaba, inka u iso imum in cukuno anime irani, idi aki. Inka tilem tirani, curno me inka urusa urani, udi aki.
9 For our knowledge is imperfect, and so is our prophesying;
Barki tizinu urusa cin-cin, ti kuri tizinu boosa cin-cin.
10 but when the perfect state of things is come, all that is imperfect will be brought to an end.
Uganiya sa unu rusa udang ma aye, se unu cin ma aki.
11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, felt like a child, reasoned like a child: when I became a man, I put from me childish ways.
Uganiya sa ma zi vana, ma busi tize ti hana, ma basa tize ti hana, idi nyizi tize ti hana. Sa ma una ma bari unu ma ceki timum ti hana.
12 For the present we see things as if in a mirror, and are puzzled; but then we shall see them face to face. For the present the knowledge I gain is imperfect; but then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
Ana me ti hira cin-cin kasi u hira umangani, roni um henu nan mu henu, aneme in rusa cin-cin, uganiya idi kem urasu dan, kasi sa awuzum urusa udang.
13 And so there remain Faith, Hope, Love--these three; and of these the greatest is Love.
Ana me timumti taru tigino me ta cukuno anime; U iko iriba eze, nan usu se imum idang anyimo aweme ine ini usu.
