1 Ukorontiyawa 8
1 Usuro imumare Sa a wiro makiri: Tirusa uguna, “vat uru tizin nu rusa.” Urusa ukeuē Jezze Uni boroo, U hemu wuza a soo.
Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth.
2 Inki uye mabasa marusa ire mun, unu ugi nome mamu rusa imumbe sa yawuna urii marusi ba.
If any man thinketh that he knoweth anything, he knoweth not yet as he ought to know;
3 Inki uyd mazinnu hem inna Asere, masa rusa innu nugeno me.
but if any man loveth God, the same is known of him.
4 Usuro abanga imuma re sa a wiroo makiri: Ti rusa u guna, “makiri uneēge me daki iri mum inibi, “ukuru buka” Are Asere azoni senke a inde.”
Concerning therefore the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is [anything] in the world, and that there is no God but one.
5 Inki aguna aginome sa atisa makiri marāni, nani anyimo Azesere nani u neē. Kasi gusi sa aye warani agussanwe, “makiri sas, sas, uneē nani Azesere.” Kāsi gusi besa “makiri marāni nan ana ti kura” gbardang.
For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth; as there are gods many, and lords many;
6 Anime ahira aru, asere a inde ani, a coo uneē vat, usuro u me uni a bara vat timumum barkim e, ti vengize, Ugomo Asere U inde mani, dēsa usurou me uni kodi nyani ya cukuno, hartu me cangi, usuro ume uni tirāni.”
yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we through him.
7 A' anime daki kōvima mazin nu rusa ugimo me ba. Ine ini yawuna dāti u tuba, aye wa nanzo makiri, wa kuri ware iginome kasi igebesa, awuza makiri. Iriba iwe ya counome barki uzattu ini kara nutonmo.
Howbeit in all men there is not that knowledge: but some, being used until now to the idol, eat as [of] a thing sacrificed to an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.
8 Daki imummare ini inyinza unu ukaba uruba, kogussi daki ta tā kin ki ukaba uruba, kogussi daki ta reba ida kassika me ukaba uru ba.
But meat will not commend us to God: neither, if we eat not, are we the worse; nor, if we eat, are we the better.
9 A name wuza seēke kati uturi u wome u cukuno binyo bu pilliko u'uye unu zatu ni kara ni kadure.
But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to the weak.
10 Ubata uyerine, inki uye unu zatu ini kara nuturi iriba ma irawe hu unu rusa, u zinna re imumāre sa awito ma kiri, dakki wa nyame ni kara narū in guna mari imumare imakiri me ba?
For if a man see thee which hast knowledge sitting at meat in an idol’s temple, will not his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?
11 Barki urusa uwe azesere uzina u makiri, u henu unu zattu mikara nu tonno iriba, dēsa yeso ma wi barki me' a humee.
For through thy knowledge he that is weak perisheth, the brother for whose sake Christ died.
12 Barki anime, inki wa cara aye anu hanu anu zatu nikara nuturi iriba, wawuza ni hara ni madini aje Ugomo Asere.
And thus, sinning against the brethren, and wounding their conscience when it is weak, ye sin against Christ.
