1 Qoronttosa 1

1 Xoossa shenen Yesus Kiristoosas kiitistanas xeygetida Phawulosapene nu isha Sostinosape,

Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,

2 Qoronttosan diza Xoossa woossa keethas, Goda Yesus Kiristoosas duma keezidaytasine isttasara nuusara Goda gidida Goda Yesus Kiristoosa suntha awan awanka xeygiza ammanizaytara gidanas xeygetida asa wursos.

to the assembly of God which is at Corinth—those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints, with all who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, both theirs and ours:

3 Nu Aawa Xoossafe Goda Yesus Kiristoosape kiyatethine saroy intes gido.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

4 Goda Yesus Kiristoosa baggara intes imetida Xoossa kiyatetha gishshi wurso wode inte gishshika ta Xoossu galatays.

I always thank my God concerning you for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus,

5 Gaasoyka ay yoonka, hessikka hasa7an gidin eratetha wurson inte duretidista.

that in everything you were enriched in him, in all speech and all knowledge—

6 Kiristoosa gishshi nu intes markattidayssi inte achchan minnides.

even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you—

7 Hessa gishshi inte Yessus Kiristoosay qonccana gallas naagishin ayana imotethatape aykoka intes paccena.

so that you come behind in no gift, waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,

8 Goda Yesus Kiristoosa nam7antho yaana gallasan inte inte bolla boroy bayinda beettana mala wursethi gakanas izi intena lo7ethi naagana.

who will also confirm you until the end, blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9 Izi ba naaza nu Goda Yesus Kiristoosa issipetethako intena xeygida Xoossi izi ammanetida Xoossukko.

God is faithful, through whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

10 Ta ishato! inte garisan shaaketethi doontta mala intes issi wozinayne issi qofay daana mala inte inte garisan issino gidana mala Goda Yesus Kiristoosa sunthan ta intena woossays.

Now I beg you, brothers, through the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions amongst you, but that you be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgement.

11 Ta ishato inte garisan palamay dizayssa ta Qalo7i so asape siyadis.

For it has been reported to me concerning you, my brothers, by those who are from Chloe’s household, that there are contentions amongst you.

12 Yoozika hayssa malakko; Inte garisan issi issi asati ta Phawulosa baggakko gees; baggay qasse ta Aphilosa baggakko gees; baggay qasse ta keefa baggakko gishin haray qasse ta Kiristoosa baggaakko gees.

Now I mean this, that each one of you says, “I follow Paul,” “I follow Apollos,” “I follow Cephas,” and, “I follow Christ.”

13 Histiko Kiristoosay shaaketi wodhidee? Inte gishshi Phawulosay kaqettidee? Woyko Phawulosa sunthan xamaqetidetii?

Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptised into the name of Paul?

14 Inte giddofe Qarsoxxosapene Gayiyosape attin hara oonaka ta xamaqontta gishshi Xoossa galatays.

I thank God that I baptised none of you except Crispus and Gaius,

15 Hessa gishshi oonikka “Ta Phawulosa sunthan xamaqistadis” gaana asi deena.

so that no one should say that I had baptised you into my own name.

16 Tumuka Isxxifanose so asa xamaqadis. Heytape hara ta xamaqidakone ta eriza uray deena.

(I also baptised the household of Stephanas; besides them, I don’t know whether I baptised any other.)

17 Kiristoosay tana kiitiday mishiracho qaala yootanas attin xamaqanas gidena. Kiristoosa masiqaley hada gidontta mala ta asape gidida cinccatethan sabakikke.

For Christ sent me not to baptise, but to preach the Good News—not in wisdom of words, so that the cross of Christ wouldn’t be made void.

18 Masiqaleza kiitay dhayana dizaytas eeyatethikko. Gido attin attana diza nuusu gidiko Xoossa wolqakko.

For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

19 “Cinccata cinccateth ta issitafe dhaysana; eranchata eratetha ta hada oothana” geeteti geesha maxaafan xaafettides.

For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise. I will bring the discernment of the discerning to nothing.”

20 Cinccay awan dizee? Tamarida eray awan dizee? Hayssa wodeza piligi erizay awan dizee? Xoossi ha alameza erateth eeyatethan kessibeynee? (aiōn g165)

Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Hasn’t God made foolish the wisdom of this world? (aiōn g165)

21 Xoossa eratethafe dendidayssan alamey ba eratetha giddon Xoossu eroy xoonin sabako eeyatethan ammanizayta ashshanas Xoossa shene gidides.

For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom didn’t know God, it was God’s good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe.

22 Ay wodeka Ayhudati duma malata koyettes. Girike asati qasse erateth koyettes.

For Jews ask for signs, Greeks seek after wisdom,

23 Nuna gidiko kaqetida Kiristoosa sabakosu. Hessika Ayhudatas dhuphekko. Hanko ammanontta deretas qasse eeyatethikko.

but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Greeks,

24 Xoossi xeygidaytas istti Ayhudista gidin woykko Girike dere asa gidikkoka Kiristoosay Xoossa wolqane Xoossa eratethikko.

but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God;

25 Gaasoyka asa erape Xoossa eeyatethi aadhida eratethikko. Asa minotethafe Xoossa laafatethi aadhes.

because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

26 Ta ishato kase inte xeygetiza wode inte ay mala asakkone ane qopite. Asa qofa mala gidiko intefe darizayti erata gidekista. Intefe daroti waolqqay bayindaytakko. Darotikka gita keeththa asape yeletibeykkista.

For you see your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, and not many noble;

27 Gido attin Xoossi erata yeelachanas derape eeyata doorides. Xoossi minota yeelachanas alamezape daburanchata doorides.

but God chose the foolish things of the world that he might put to shame those who are wise. God chose the weak things of the world that he might put to shame the things that are strong.

28 Xoossi hanko ammanontta asa achan deettes geeteti erettiza miishata bayinda miisha mala oothana hayssa alamezan leqettidaytane kawuyidayta hada milatizayta doorides.

God chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised, and the things that don’t exist, that he might bring to nothing the things that exist,

29 Hessika izi oothiday oonkka iza sinthan ceeqetontta malakko.

that no flesh should boast before God.

30 Intena qasse Xoossi Yesus Kiristoosara issifetethi deyana mala oothides. Hessa gishshi Xooss Yesus Kiristoosa nu erateth, nu xiilloteth, nu geeshatethine nuna ashshizade gidana mala oothides.

Because of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption,

31 Hesa gishshi kase “Ceeqiza uray Godan ceeqo” geeteti geesha maxaafan xaafetida malakko.

that, as it is written, “He who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.”
