2 Twandĩkĩra kanitha wa Ngai ũrĩa ũrĩ Korinitho, kũrĩ arĩa othe maamũrĩtwo thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ na magetwo matuĩke andũ atheru, o hamwe na arĩa othe marĩ kũndũ guothe makayagĩra rĩĩtwa rĩa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ, o we Mwathani wao na witũ:
Vnto the congregacion of God which is at Corinthum. To them that are sanctified in Christ Iesu sainctes by callynge with all that call on the name of oure lorde Iesus Christ in every place both of theirs and of oures
3 Wega na thayũ irogĩa kũrĩ inyuĩ ciumĩte kũrĩ Ngai Ithe witũ na Mwathani Jesũ Kristũ.
Grace be with you and peace fro God oure father and from the lorde Iesus Christ.
4 Nĩnjookagĩria Ngai ngaatho hĩndĩ ciothe nĩ ũndũ wanyu, nĩ ũndũ wa wega wake ũrĩa mũheetwo thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ.
I thanke my God all wayes on youre behalfe for ye grace of God which is geuen you by Iesus Christ
5 Nĩgũkorwo thĩinĩ wake nĩmũtongetio maũndũ-inĩ mothe, mũgatongio ũhoro-inĩ wa mĩario yanyu yothe o na ũhoro-inĩ wothe wa kũmenya maũndũ,
that in all thinges ve are made riche by him in all lerninge and in all knowledge
6 tondũ-rĩ, ũira witũ ũkoniĩ Kristũ nĩwekĩrirwo hinya thĩinĩ wanyu.
even as the testimony of Iesus Christ was confermed in you)
7 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio gũtirĩ kĩheo gĩa kĩĩroho o na kĩmwe mũtarĩ nakĩo, o mũgĩetagĩrĩra na kĩyo kũguũranĩrio kwa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ.
so that ye are behynde in no gyft and wayte for the apperynge of oure lorde Iesus Christ
8 Nake nĩarĩmũikaragia mũrĩ na hinya nginya mũthia, nĩguo mũtikanakorwo mũrĩ na ũcuuke mũthenya ũrĩa wa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ.
which shall streght you vnto ye ende that ye maye be blamelesse in ye daye of oure lorde Iesus Christ.
9 Ngai nĩ mwĩhokeku, o we ũrĩa wamwĩtire nĩguo mũkorwo na ngwatanĩro na Mũriũ Jesũ Kristũ, Mwathani witũ.
ffor god is faythfull by whom ye are called vnto ye fellishyppe of his sonne Iesus Christe oure lorde
10 Atĩrĩrĩ, inyuĩ ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, ndamũthaitha thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ, atĩ inyuothe mũiguane o mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ, nĩguo mũtikagĩe na nyamũkano gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu, no mũikare mũiguanĩte, na mũrĩ na meciiria o mamwe, na ngoro o ĩmwe.
I beseche you brethre in ye name of oure lorde Iesus Christ that ye all speake one thynge and that there be no dissencion amoge you: but be ye knyt together in one mynde and in one meaynge.
11 Tondũ rĩĩrĩ ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, nĩmenyithĩtio nĩ andũ amwe a kuuma nyũmba ya Kiloe atĩ nĩ kũrĩ na ngũĩ gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu.
It is shewed vnto me (my brethren) of you by them that are of the housse of Cloe that ther is stryfe amonge you. And this is it that I meane:
12 Ũrĩa ndĩroiga nĩ atĩrĩ: Ũmwe wanyu oigaga atĩ, “Niĩ nũmagĩrĩra Paũlũ”; ũngĩ akoiga atĩ, “Niĩ nũmagĩrĩra Apolo”; nake ũngĩ akoiga atĩ, “Niĩ nũmagĩrĩra Kefa”; o na ningĩ ũngĩ akoiga atĩ, “Niĩ nũmagĩrĩra Kristũ.”
how that comelie amonge you one sayeth: I holde of Paul: another I holde of Apollo: ye thyrde I holde of Cephas: ye four ye I holde of Christ.
13 Kaĩ Kristũ agayanĩtio? Paũlũ-rĩ, nĩwe waambirwo mũtĩ igũrũ nĩ ũndũ wanyu? Mwabatithirio thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Paũlũ?
Ys Christ devided? was Paul crucified for you? ether were ye baptised in ye name of Paul?
14 Nĩngũcookia ngaatho nĩ ũndũ gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wanyu niĩ ndaabatithirie, o tiga Kirisipo na Gayo.
I thanke God that I christened none of you but Crispus and Gayus
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe ũngiuga atĩ mwabatithirio thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa.
lest eny shulde saye that I had baptised in myne awne name.
16 Ĩĩ, o na ningĩ nĩndabatithirie andũ a nyũmba ya Stefana; no tiga acio, ndingĩririkana kana nĩ kũrĩ mũndũ ũngĩ ndaabatithirie.
I baptised also the housse of Stephana. Forthermore knowe I not whether I baptised eny man or no.
17 Nĩ gũkorwo Kristũ ndaandũmire ngabatithanie, no aandũmire ngahunjie Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega, no ti ndĩũheane na ũũgĩ wa mũndũ, nĩgeetha mũtharaba wa Kristũ ndũkae kwagithio kĩene.
For Christ sent me not to baptyse but to preache ye gospell not with wysdome of wordes lest the crosse of Christ shuld have bene made of none effecte.
18 Nĩgũkorwo ndũmĩrĩri ya mũtharaba nĩ ũrimũ kũrĩ arĩa maroora, no kũrĩ ithuĩ arĩa tũrahonokio-rĩ, ũndũ ũcio nĩ hinya wa Ngai.
For ye preachinge of the crosse is to them yt perisshe folishnes: but vnto vs which are saved it is ye power of God.
19 Nĩgũkorwo kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Ũũgĩ wa andũ arĩa oogĩ nĩkũniina ngaaũniina; naguo ũmenyo wa andũ arĩa imenyi ndĩkĩũtue wa tũhũ.”
For it is written: I will destroye the wysdome of the wyse and will cast awaye the vnderstondinge of the prudet.
20 Mũndũ ũrĩa mũũgĩ-rĩ, akĩrĩ kũ? Mũndũ ũrĩa mũthomu-rĩ, akĩrĩ kũ? Arĩ ha mũciiri ũrĩa ũũĩ gũciira maũndũ ma mahinda maya tũrĩ? Githĩ Ngai ndatuĩte ũũgĩ wa thĩ ĩno ũrimũ? (aiōn g165)
Where is the wyse? Where is the scrybe? Where is the searcher of this worlde? Hath not God made the wysdome of this worlde folisshnes? (aiōn g165)
21 Nĩgũkorwo Ngai na ũndũ wa ũũgĩ wake nĩonire atĩ andũ a thĩ ĩno na ũũgĩ wao matikaamũmenya, akĩona kwagĩrĩire ahũthĩre maũndũ ma ũrimũ marĩa tũhunjagia nĩgeetha ahonokie arĩa mamwĩtĩkagia.
For when the worlde thorow wysdome knew not God in ye wysdome of God: it pleased God thorow folisshnes of preachinge to save them yt beleve.
22 Ayahudi metagia ciama, nao Ayunani macaragia ũũgĩ,
For ye Iewes requyre a signe and the Grekes seke after wysdome.
23 no ithuĩ tũhunjagia ũhoro wa Kristũ arĩ mwambe mũtĩ igũrũ: maũndũ macio nĩ mũhĩnga kũrĩ Ayahudi na ũrimũ kũrĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ,
But we preache Christ crucified vnto the Iewes an occasion of fallinge and vnto the Grekes folisshnes:
24 no kũrĩ arĩa Ngai etĩte, Ayahudi o na Ayunani, Kristũ nĩwe hinya wa Ngai na ũũgĩ wa Ngai.
but vnto the which are called both of Iewes and Grekes we preache Christ ye power of God and the wysdome of God.
25 Nĩgũkorwo ũrimũ wa Ngai nĩ mũũgĩ gũkĩra ũũgĩ wa mũndũ, naguo ũhũthũ wa Ngai nĩ mũritũ gũkĩra hinya wa mũndũ.
For the folishnes of God is wyser then me: and the weakenes of God is stronger then men.
26 Ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, ta gĩciiriei ũrĩa mwatariĩ rĩrĩa mwetirwo. Ti aingĩ anyu oogĩ na ũũgĩ wa andũ a gũkũ thĩ; na ti aingĩ mangĩaguucĩrĩirie andũ; o na ti aingĩ maciarĩirwo mĩciĩ ĩrĩa ĩrĩ igweta.
Brethren loke on youre callinge how that not many wyse men after the flesshe not many myghty not many of hye degre are called:
27 No Ngai aathuurire maũndũ marĩa ma ũrimũ ma thĩ ĩno nĩguo aconorithie andũ arĩa oogĩ; ningĩ Ngai aathuurire maũndũ marĩa matarĩ hinya ma thĩ ĩno nĩguo aconorithie arĩa marĩ hinya.
but God hath chosen the folysshe thinges of the worlde to confounde the wyse. And God hath chosyn the weake thinges of the worlde to confounde thinges which are mighty.
28 Agĩthuura maũndũ marĩa mahũthũ ma thĩ ĩno, na marĩa matarĩ ma gũtĩĩka, o gwata marĩa matarĩ maũndũ kũrĩ, nĩgeetha amaagithie bata,
And vile thinges of the worlde and thinges which are despysed hath God chosen yee and thinges of no reputacion for to brynge to nought thinges of reputacion
29 nĩgeetha mũndũ o na ũ ndakanetĩĩe mbere ya Ngai.
that no flesshe shulde reioyce in his presence.
30 No rĩrĩ, nĩwe ũtũmĩte mũkorwo mũrĩ thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ, ũrĩa ũtuĩkĩte ũũgĩ uumĩte kũrĩ Ngai nĩ ũndũ witũ, ũguo nĩ kuuga, ũthingu witũ, na ũtheru, na gũkũũrwo.
And vnto him partayne ye in Christ Iesu which of God is made vnto vs wysdome and also rightewesnes and saunctifyinge and redempcion.
31 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Mũndũ ũrĩa ũkwĩraha, nĩerahage nĩ ũndũ wa Mwathani.”
That accordinge as it is written: he which reioyseth shulde reioyce in the Lorde.
