1 Akorinitho 10
1 Na rĩrĩ, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, ndikwenda mũkorwo mũtooĩ ũndũ ũyũ, atĩ maithe maitũ ma tene othe maatongoragio nĩ itu, na atĩ othe nĩmaringire iria.
Not I want (for *N(k)O*) you to be ignorant, brothers, that the fathers of us all under the cloud were and all through the sea passed,
2 Othe nĩmabatithirio matuĩke andũ a Musa marĩ rungu rwa itu rĩu, o na marĩ iria-inĩ rĩu.
and all into Moses (were baptized *N(k)O*) in the cloud and in the sea
3 Na othe maarĩĩaga irio o imwe cia kĩĩroho,
and all the same spiritual food ate
4 na maanyuuaga maaĩ o mamwe ma kĩĩroho; nĩgũkorwo maanyuire kuuma rwaro-inĩ rwa ihiga rwa kĩĩroho rũrĩa rwatwaranaga nao, naruo rwaro rũu rwarĩ Kristũ.
and all the same spiritual they drank drink they were drinking for from [the] spiritual accompanying [them] rock, the rock then was Christ;
5 O na kũrĩ ũguo-rĩ, aingĩ ao matiigana gũkenia Ngai; nacio ciimba ciao ikĩhurunjwo werũ-inĩ.
Nevertheless not with the most of them was well pleased God; they were strewn for in the wilderness.
6 Na rĩrĩ, maũndũ macio meekĩkire marĩ ta cionereria, nĩgeetha ngoro ciitũ itikerirĩrie gwĩka maũndũ mooru ta macio meekire.
These things now types to us have become for not to be us desirers of evil things even as they also they also desired.
7 Mũtigatuĩke ahooi mĩhianano, ta ũrĩa amwe ao maatariĩ; o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Andũ acio magĩikara thĩ kũrĩa na kũnyua, magĩcooka magĩũkĩra kũina na gwĩkenia.”
Neither idolaters do become even as some of them (as *N(k)O*) it has been written: Sat down the people to eat and to drink and rose up to play.
8 Ningĩ tũtikahũũre ũmaraya, ta ũrĩa amwe ao meekire, nao magĩkua andũ ngiri mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ithatũ mũthenya ũmwe.
Neither shall we commit sexual immorality even as some of them committed sexual immorality, and fell (in *k*) one day twenty three thousand.
9 O na ningĩ tũtikanagerie Mwathani, ta ũrĩa amwe ao meekire, nao makĩniinwo nĩ nyoka.
Neither shall we test the (Christ *NK(O)*) even as (and *k*) some of them tested, and by serpents (were destroyed. *N(k)O*)
10 Na mũtikae gũteta, ta ũrĩa amwe ao meekire, nao makĩũragwo nĩ mũraika ũrĩa mũniinani.
Neither do grumble (just as *N(k)O*) (and *k*) some of them grumbled, and perished by the Destroyer.
11 Maũndũ macio meekĩkire kũrĩ o marĩ cionereria, na makĩandĩkwo marĩ ma gũtũkaania, ithuĩ tũkinyĩrĩirwo nĩ kũhingio kwa mahinda. (aiōn g165)
These things now (all *K*) (typologically it was happening *N(k)O*) to them, were written then for admonition of us to whom the ends of the ages (has come. *N(k)O*) (aiōn g165)
12 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ũngĩĩra nĩũrũgamĩte wega-rĩ, menyerera ndũkae kũgũa!
Therefore the [one] thinking to have stood he should take heed lest he may fall.
13 Mũtirĩ mwagerio na magerio mangĩ tiga o marĩa makoraga andũ. Nake Ngai nĩmwĩhokeku; ndangĩtĩkĩra mũgerio na magerio marĩa mũtangĩhota gwĩtiiria. No rĩrĩa mũkũgerio-rĩ, nĩarĩmuonagĩrĩria njĩra ya kũũrĩra nĩguo mũhotage gwĩtiiria magerio macio.
Temptation you not has seized only except what is common to man; faithful now [is] God, who not will allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but will provide with the temptation also the escape to be able (you *k*) to endure [it].
14 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, arata akwa endwa, ũragĩrai ũhoro wa kũhooya mĩhianano.
Therefore, beloved of mine, do flee from idolatry.
15 Ndĩraarĩria andũ oogĩ; mwĩkũũranĩrei ũrĩa ndĩroiga.
As to sensible [ones] I speak, do judge for yourselves what I say.
16 Gĩkombe gĩa gũcookia ngaatho kĩrĩa tũcookagia ngaatho nĩ ũndũ wakĩo-rĩ, githĩ ti kũgwatanĩra thakame ya Kristũ? Na githĩ mũgate ũrĩa twenyũraga ti kũgwatanĩra mwĩrĩ wa Kristũ?
The cup of blessing that we bless, surely a participation it is in the blood of Christ The bread that we break, surely a participation in the body of Christ it is?
17 Na tondũ mũgate ũcio nĩ ũmwe-rĩ, ithuĩ, o na tũrĩ aingĩ, tũrĩ o mwĩrĩ ũmwe, nĩgũkorwo ithuĩ othe tũrĩĩaga mũgate o ũcio ũmwe.
Because [there is] one loaf one body the many we are; for all of the one loaf we partake.
18 Ta mwĩcũraniei ũhoro wa andũ a Isiraeli: Arĩa marĩĩaga irio cia igongona-rĩ, githĩ matigwatanagĩra kĩgongona kĩu?
do consider Israel according to flesh: (Surely *N(k)O*) those eating the sacrifices fellow partakers in the altar are?
19 Ndĩrenda kuuga atĩa? Atĩ kĩrĩa kĩrutĩirwo mũhianano nĩ kĩndũ kũrĩ, kana atĩ mũhianano guo mwene nĩ kĩndũ kũrĩ?
What then do I mean? That an idol-sacrifice anything is or that an idol anything is?
20 Aca! Ũrĩa ndĩroiga nĩ atĩ magongona ma andũ arĩa matarĩ na ũngai marutagĩrwo ndaimono, na ti Ngai, na ndikwenda mũgĩe ngwatanĩro na ndaimono.
Rather that what (they sacrifice *N(k)O*) (the *ko*) (gentiles *KO*) to demons and not to God (they sacrifice; *N(k)O*) Not I do wish now you fellow partakers with demons to be.
21 Mũtingĩhota kũnyuĩra gĩkombe kĩa Mwathani, na mũnyuĩre gĩkombe kĩa ndaimono o nakĩo; mũtingĩhota kũgwatanĩra metha-inĩ ya Mwathani, na mũgwatanĩre metha-inĩ ya ndaimono.
Not you are able [the] cup of [the] Lord to drink and [the] cup of demons; Not you are able of [the] table of [the] Lord to partake and of [the] table of demons.
22 Kaĩ tũrageria kwarahũra ũiru wa Mwathani? Kaĩ tũrĩ na hinya kũmũkĩra?
Or do we provoke to jealousy the Lord? Surely not stronger than He are we?
23 “Niĩ ndirigĩrĩirio gwĩka ũndũ,” no ti ũndũ o wothe ũrĩ na kĩguni. “Niĩ ndirigĩrĩirio gwĩka ũndũ,” no ti ũndũ o wothe ũrĩ na uumithio.
All things (to me *K*) are lawful but not all things are profitable; All things (to me *K*) are lawful but not all edify.
24 Gũtirĩ mũndũ wagĩrĩirwo nĩgũcaragia maũndũ ma kwĩguna we mwene, no nĩacaragie maũndũ ma kũguna andũ arĩa angĩ.
No one the [good] of himself should seek but that of the other (each. *K*)
25 Rĩĩagai kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩendagio thoko-inĩ ya nyama mũtekwĩyũria ciũria nĩ ũndũ wa mwĩcuuko wa thamiri,
Everything in the meat market being sold do eat nothing inquiring on account of conscience;
26 nĩgũkorwo, “Thĩ nĩ ya Mwathani, na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wayo.”
The Lord’s for [is] the earth and the fullness of it.
27 Mũndũ ũtarĩ mwĩtĩkia angĩmwĩta mũkarĩe irio gwake, na inyuĩ mũkorwo nĩ mũkwenda gũthiĩ-rĩ, rĩa irio ciothe iria mũngĩheo mũtekwĩyũria ciũria cia mwĩcuuko wa thamiri.
If (now *k*) anyone invites you of the unbelieving and you wish to go, everything which is being set before you do eat nothing inquiring on account of conscience;
28 No mũndũ angĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Irio ici irutĩtwo irĩ igongona,” mũtigacirĩe, nĩ ũndũ wa mũndũ ũcio wamwĩra ũguo, o na nĩ ũndũ wa mwĩcuuko wa thamiri;
If however anyone to you shall say; This (temple-sacrifice *N(k)O*) is, not do eat on account of him which having shown [it] and conscience; (of the for Lord [is] the earth and the fullness of her. *K*)
29 ngiuga ũguo ti thamiri yaku ndagweta, no nĩ thamiri ya mũndũ ũcio ũngĩ. Nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, wĩyathi wakwa ũgũciirithio nĩkĩ nĩ ũndũ wa thamiri ya mũndũ ũngĩ?
[the] conscience now I am saying [is] not your own but that of the other. so why so why for the freedom of mine is judged by another’s conscience?
30 Ingĩrĩanĩra irio na andũ angĩ ndĩ na ngaatho-rĩ, nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma njambio nĩ ũndũ wa kĩndũ kĩu njokeirie Ngai ngaatho nĩ ũndũ wakĩo?
If (now *k*) I myself with thankfulness partake, why am I denigrated for that which I myself give thanks?
31 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, rĩrĩa mũkũrĩa kana rĩrĩa mũkũnyua, o na kana mũgĩĩka ũndũ o wothe-rĩ, wĩkagei nĩ ũndũ wa kwenda kũgoocithia Ngai.
Whether therefore you eat or drink or whatever you perform, all things to the glory of God do perform.
32 Tigai gwĩka ũndũ ũngĩhĩngithia mũndũ, arĩ Mũyahudi, kana arĩ Mũyunani, o na kana ũhĩngithie kanitha wa Ngai,
Without offense both to Jews do you be and to Greeks and to the church of God —
33 o ta ũrĩa niĩ ngeragia gũkenia andũ othe na njĩra o yothe. Nĩgũkorwo ndicaragia ũndũ wa kwĩguna niĩ mwene, no njaragia ũrĩa ingĩguna andũ aingĩ, nĩguo mahonoke.
even as I myself also I myself also all in all things please not seeking the of myself (profiting *N(k)O*) but that of the many that they may be saved.
