< 1 Corinthians 1 >
1 Poul, clepid apostle of Jhesu Crist, bi the wille of God, and Sostenes, brothir, to the chirche of God that is at Corynthe,
Pọl, onye a kpọrọ ịbụ onyeozi Jisọs Kraịst site nʼọchịchọ Chineke, na nwanna anyị nwoke Sostenis,
2 to hem that ben halewid in Crist Jhesu, and clepid seyntis, with alle that inwardli clepen the name of oure Lord Jhesu Crist, in ech place of hem and of oure,
Ọ bụ unu nzukọ Chineke dị na Kọrint ka a na-edere akwụkwọ a, ndị e doro nsọ nʼime Kraịst Jisọs, na ndị a kpọrọ ibi ndụ dị nsọ, tinyere ndị ahụ niile na-akpọku aha Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst, onye bụ Onyenwe ha na Onyenwe anyị:
3 grace to you and pees of God, oure fadir, and of the Lord Jhesu Crist.
Ka amara na udo nke sitere na Chineke Nna anyị, na Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst dịrị unu.
4 Y do thankyngis to my God eueremore for you, in the grace of God that is youun to you in Crist Jhesu.
Ana m ekele Chineke ekele nʼihi onyinye amara niile o nyere unu site na Kraịst Jisọs.
5 For in alle thingis ye ben maad riche in hym, in ech word, and in ech kunnyng,
Nʼihi na e emeela ka unu baa ụba nʼụzọ niile, nʼime ya, ma nʼokwu unu ma na nghọta unu. O meekwala ka unu nwee nghọta zuru ezu banyere eziokwu niile. Ọ na-emekwa ka unu nwee ike na-ekwupụta okwu banyere oziọma ya.
6 as the witnessyng of Crist is confermyd in you;
Nʼihi na ịgba akaebe banyere Kraịst pụtara ihe, guzosiekwa ike na ndụ unu.
7 so that no thing faile to you in ony grace, that abiden the schewyng of oure Lord Jhesu Crist;
Otu ihe si dị, ọ dịghị onyinye mmụọ fọdụrụ unu nke unu na-enweghị, ka unu nọrọ na-eche mgbe Chineke ga-egosipụta Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst.
8 which also schal conferme you in to the ende with outen cryme, in the dai of the comyng of oure Lord Jhesu Crist.
Ọ ga-eme ka unu dị ike ruo na mgbe ikpeazụ, meekwa ka unu bụrụ ndị na-enweghị ịta ụta nʼụbọchị Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst.
9 `A trewe God, bi whom ye ben clepid in to the felouschipe of his sone Jhesu Crist oure Lord.
Chineke, onye kpọbatara unu ka unu na Ọkpara ya bụ Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst, na-enwe mmekọrịta kwesiri ntụkwasị obi.
10 But, britheren, Y biseche you, bi the name of oure Lord Jhesu Crist, that ye alle seie the same thing, and that dissenciouns be not among you; but be ye perfit in the same wit, and in the same kunnyng.
Ụmụnna m, eji m aha Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst na-arịọ unu, ka unu niile na-ekwekọrịta nʼihe ọbụla unu kwuru, ka nkewa ọbụla gharakwa ịbata nʼetiti unu. Ana m arịọkwa unu ka unu dị nʼotu, nʼechiche obi unu na nʼizu unu.
11 For, my britheren, it is teld to me of hem that ben at Cloes, that stryues ben among you.
Nʼihi na ụmụnna m, esi m nʼọnụ ndị si nʼezinaụlọ Kloyi bịara nʼebe a nụta na esemokwu dị nʼetiti unu.
12 And Y seie that, that ech of you seith, For Y am of Poul, and Y am of Apollo, and Y am of Cefas, but Y am of Crist.
Anụrụ m na ịkpa iche iche abatala nʼetiti unu. Na ụfọdụ nʼime unu na-asị, “Abụ m onye na-eso Pọl”; ndị ọzọ na-asịkwa, “Abụ m onye na-eso Apọlọs”; ndị ọzọkwa na-asị, “Ana m eso Sefas”; ma ndị ọzọ na-asịkwa, “Ọ bụ Kraịst ka m na-eso.”
13 Whether Crist is departid? whether Poul was crucified for you, ether ye ben baptisid in the name of Poul?
Kraịst, ọ dị abụọ? Ọ bụ Pọl ka a kpọgidere nʼobe nʼihi unu? Ọ dị onye e mere baptizim nʼaha Pọl?
14 Y do thankyngis to my God, that Y baptiside noon of you, but Crispus and Gayus;
Ana m ekele Chineke ekele na ọ dịghị onye ọbụla nʼime unu m mere baptizim, ewezugakwa Krispọs na Gaiọs.
15 lest ony man seie, that ye ben baptisid in my name.
Ya mere, ọ dịghị onye nʼime unu ga-asị na e mere ya baptizim nʼaha m.
16 And Y baptiside also the hous of Stephan, but Y woot not, that Y baptiside ony other.
(Ahaa! Emekwara m Stefanas na ezinaụlọ ya baptizim. Ewezuga ndị a, amaghị m ma m ga-echetakwa onye ọzọ m mere baptizim nʼonwe m.)
17 For Crist sente me not to baptise, but to preche the gospel; not in wisdom of word, that the cros of Crist be not voidid awei.
Nʼihi na Kraịst ezighị m ime ndị mmadụ baptizim. O zitere m iji okwu dị mfe kwusaa oziọma ya. Ọ bụghị iji okwu oke mmụta na amamihe nke mmadụ ka ike nke obe Kraịst ghara ịbụ ihe efu.
18 For the word of the cros is foli to hem that perischen; but to hem that ben maad saaf, that is to seie, to vs, it is the vertu of God.
Nʼihi na okwu maka obe bụ ihe nzuzu nye ndị na-efu efu, ma nye anyị ndị a na-azọpụta, ọ bụrụ anyị ike nke Chineke.
19 For it is writun, Y schal distruye the wisdom of wise men, and Y schal reproue the prudence of prudent men.
E dere ya, “Aga m emebi amamihe ndị maara ihe. Aga m emekwa ka oke nghọta nke ndị maara ihe bụrụ ihe efu.”
20 Where is the wise man? where is the wise lawiere? where is the purchasour of this world? Whether God hath not maad the wisdom of this world fonned? (aiōn )
Olee ebe ndị oke amamihe nọ? Olee ebe ndị ode akwụkwọ nọ? Olee ebe ndị oke ịrụ ụka nke oge a nọ? Chineke o mebeghị ka amamihe nke ụwa a bụrụ ihe efu? (aiōn )
21 For the world in wisdom of God knewe not God bi wisdom, it pleside to God, bi foli of prechyng, `to maken hem saaf that bileueden.
Ma ebe ọ bụ site nʼamamihe nke Chineke, ụwa enweghị ike ịmata Chineke site na amamihe nke ya, ọ dị Chineke ezi mma isite nʼoziọma nke a na-ekwusa nke ndị mmadụ na-akpọ ihe nzuzu zọpụta ndị kweere.
22 For Jewis seken signes, and Grekis seken wisdom;
Ndị Juu chọrọ ịhụ ihe ịrịbama, ndị Griik na-achọkwa amamihe.
23 but we prechen Crist crucified, to Jewis sclaundre, and to hethene men foli;
Ma anyị onwe anyị na-ekwusa Kraịst, onye a kpọgburu nʼobe, onye bụ ihe mgbochi nʼebe ndị Juu nọ, ma na ntị ndị mba ọzọ, ọ dị ka okwu nzuzu.
24 but to tho Jewis and Grekis that ben clepid, we prechen Crist the vertu of God and the wisdom of God.
Ma nye ndị niile a kpọrọ, ma ndị Juu ma ndị Griik, Kraịst bụ ike nke Chineke bụrụkwa amamihe nke Chineke.
25 For that that is foli thing of God, is wiser than men; and that that is the feble thing of God, is strengere than men.
Nʼihi na nzuzu Chineke dị mma karịa amamihe niile nke mmadụ, adịghị ike Chineke dịkwa ukwuu karịa ike niile nke mmadụ.
26 But, britheren, se ye youre clepyng; for not many wise men aftir the fleisch, not many myyti, not many noble.
Ụmụnna m, chetakwanụ ihe unu bụ mgbe a kpọrọ unu. Chetanụ na ọ bụ ole na ole nʼime unu bụ ndị maara ihe nʼusoro ogugo mmadụ, ndị dị ike, na ndị a maara aha ha nʼobodo.
27 But God chees tho thingis that ben fonned of the world, to confounde wise men;
Ma lee na ọ bụ ihe ahụ ụwa gụrụ dịka ihe nzuzu, ka Chineke họrọ iji mee ka ihere mee ndị amamihe. Ọ bụkwa ihe ha gụrụ dịka ihe na-adịghị ike ka Chineke họọrọ iji mee ka ihere mee ndị dị ike.
28 and God chees the feble thingis of the world, to confounde the stronge thingis; and God chees the vnnoble thingis `and dispisable thingis of the world, and tho thingis that ben not, to distruye tho thingis that ben;
Nʼihi na Chineke họọrọ ihe dịkarịrị ala nke ụwa, na ihe a jụrụ ajụ, jiri ha mee ka ihe ụwa chere na ọ baghị uru, bụrụ ihe bara uru.
29 that ech man haue not glorie in his siyt.
Ka mmadụ ọbụla ghara ịnya isi nʼebe Chineke nọ.
30 But of hym ye ben in Crist Jhesu, which is maad of God to vs wisdom, and riytwisnesse, and holynesse, and ayenbiyng; that,
Ma ọ bụ nʼihi ya ka unu ji nọrọ nʼime Kraịst Jisọs, onye ghọrọ isi amamihe nye anyị site na Chineke, nke bụ ezi omume anyị na nke ido anyị nsọ, na onye mgbapụta anyị.
31 as it is wrytun, He that glorieth, haue glorie in the Lord.
Ya mere, dịka e dere ya nʼakwụkwọ nsọ, “Onye ọbụla na-anya isi, ya nyaa nʼime Onyenwe anyị.”
