1 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, a called apostle of Jesus Christ, through the will of God, and Sosthenes the brother,
An Paulo, moluongi mondo obed jaote mar Kristo Yesu kaluwore gi dwaro mar Nyasaye kaachiel kod owadwa Sostheno,
2 to the assembly of God that is in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints, with all those calling upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place — both theirs and ours:
Wandikonu un kanisa mar Nyasaye man Korintho, ma un joma osepwodhi ei Kristo Yesu, kendo moseluongi mondo obed jomaler kaachiel gi ji mamoko duto man kamoro amora maluongo nying Ruodhwa Yesu Kristo, ma en Ruodhgi kendo Ruodhwa:
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
Ngʼwono gi kwe moa kuom Nyasaye Wuonwa kod Ruoth Yesu Kristo obed kodu.
4 I give thanks to my God always concerning you for the grace of God that was given to you in Christ Jesus,
Adwokone Nyasacha erokamano kinde duto kuomu, nikech ngʼwonone mosemiyou kuom Kristo Yesu.
5 that in every thing ye were enriched in him, in all discourse and all knowledge,
Nimar kuome usebedo momew e yore duto kuom weche ma uwacho kod ngʼeyo ma un-go,
6 according as the testimony of the Christ was confirmed in you,
nikech nendwa kuom Kristo nosir e dieru.
7 so that ye are not behind in any gift, waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Kuom mano, ok uremo mich moro amora mar Roho kuritogo odiechiengʼ ma Ruodhwa Yesu Kristo nofwenyree.
8 who also shall confirm you unto the end — unblamable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ;
En bende obiro ritou mondo ubed motegno nyaka giko, mondo omi ubed maonge bura chiengʼ mar Ruodhwa Yesu Kristo.
9 faithful [is] God, through whom ye were called to the fellowship of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
Nyasaye moseluongou mondo ubedi e lalruok gi Wuode Yesu Kristo Ruodhwa en ja-adiera.
10 And I call upon you, brethren, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that the same thing ye may all say, and there may not be divisions among you, and ye may be perfected in the same mind, and in the same judgment,
Jowetena, asayou e nying Ruodhwa Yesu Kristo, mondo un duto uwinjru ngʼato gi ngʼato. Kik pogruok moro amora bedi e kindu, to beduru kuriworu maonge pogruok, ka un gi dwaro achiel kod paro achiel.
11 for it was signified to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of Chloe, that contentions are among you;
Jowetena, jood Kloe moko osekelona wach ni nitie dhawo e dieru.
12 and I say this, that each one of you saith, 'I, indeed, am of Paul' — 'and I of Apollos,' — 'and I of Cephas,' — 'and I of Christ.'
Tiend gima awacho chal kama: Ngʼat moro kuomu wacho niya, “An ngʼat Paulo,” to ngʼat machielo to wacho niya, “An ngʼat Apolo,” machielo bende oramo niya, “An ngʼat Kefa,” to moro wacho niya, “An ngʼat Kristo.”
13 Hath the Christ been divided? was Paul crucified for you? or to the name of Paul were ye baptized;
Kristo dipogre nyadi di? Paulo bende nogur e msalaba nikech un? Koso nuyudo batiso e nying Paulo?
14 I give thanks to God that no one of you did I baptize, except Crispus and Gaius —
Adwoko erokamano ne Nyasaye ni ne ok abatiso ngʼato kuomu kata achiel makmana Krispo gi Gayo,
15 that no one may say that to my own name I did baptize;
omiyo onge ngʼama nyalo wacho ni noyudo batiso e nyinga.
16 and I did baptize also Stephanas' household — further, I have not known if I did baptize any other.
(Ee, jood Stefano bende ne abatiso, to ok apar ni ne abatiso ngʼat machielo mokalo mano.)
17 For Christ did not send me to baptize, but — to proclaim good news; not in wisdom of discourse, that the cross of the Christ may not be made of none effect;
Nikech Kristo ne ok oora mondo abatis ji, to noora mondo ayal Injili, ok gi weche mamit mag rieko dhano, nono to dipo ka msalap Kristo obedo tekone.
18 for the word of the cross to those indeed perishing is foolishness, and to us — those being saved — it is the power of God,
Wach msalaba en fuwo ni joma lal, to ni wan joma iwaro, en teko Nyasaye,
19 for it hath been written, 'I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the intelligence of the intelligent I will bring to nought;'
nikech ondiki niya, “Abiro ketho rieko joma riek; kendo ngʼeyo mar joma riek abiro keyo nono.”
20 where [is] the wise? where the scribe? where a disputer of this age? did not God make foolish the wisdom of this world? (aiōn g165)
Ere ngʼama jarieko? Ere japuonj chik? Ere jatwak molony moloyo e pinyni? Donge Nyasaye osemiyo rieko mar pinyni odoko fuwo? (aiōn g165)
21 for, seeing in the wisdom of God the world through the wisdom knew not God, it did please God through the foolishness of the preaching to save those believing.
Nyasaye nochano gi riekone ni piny ok nyal ngʼeyo Kristo gi riekone owuon, to nochano mana ni kuom fuwo mar wach mwalandoni ema owarogo joma oyie.
22 Since also Jews ask a sign, and Greeks seek wisdom,
Jo-Yahudi dwaro ni nyaka timnegi honni, to jo-Yunani to manyo rieko,
23 also we — we preach Christ crucified, to Jews, indeed, a stumbling-block, and to Greeks foolishness,
to wan wayalo Kristo mane ogur, ma en kidi machwanyo jo-Yahudi kendo en fuwo ni joma ok jo-Yahudi.
24 and to those called — both Jews and Greeks — Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God,
To kuom ji duto ma Nyasaye oseluongo, bed ni gin jo-Yahudi kata jo-Yunani, Kristo en teko Nyasaye kendo en rieko Nyasaye.
25 because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men;
Nikech fup Nyasaye riek moloyo rieko dhano, kendo nyawo mare otegno moloyo teko dhano.
26 for see your calling, brethren, that not many [are] wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble;
Jowetena, parieuru kaka nuchal kane Nyasaye oluongou. Ji mathoth kuomu ne ok joma riek, kipimou gi rieko dhano, bende ji mathoth kuomu ne ok joma rahuma kata joma oa e koth ruodhi.
27 but the foolish things of the world did God choose, that the wise He may put to shame; and the weak things of the world did God choose that He may put to shame the strong;
To Nyasaye noyiero gima ofuwo mag piny mondo okuodgo wi joma riek. Nyasaye noyiero bende gik manyap mag piny mondo okuodgo wi joma rateke.
28 and the base things of the world, and the things despised did God choose, and the things that are not, that the things that are He may make useless —
Nyasaye noyiero gik ma piny ochayo kendo manono mondo otiekgo gik ma jopiny kwano ni lich.
29 that no flesh may glory before Him;
Notimo kamano mondo kik ngʼato osungre e nyime.
30 and of Him ye — ye are in Christ Jesus, who became to us from God wisdom, righteousness also, and sanctification, and redemption,
En e chakruok mar ngimau ei Kristo Yesu, mane obedonwa rieko moa kuom Nyasaye, tiende ni tim makare, pwodhruok, kod resruok.
31 that, according as it hath been written, 'He who is glorying — in the Lord let him glory.'
Emomiyo, mana kaka ondiki niya, “Ngʼat ma sungore mondo osungre kuom Jehova Nyasaye.”
