1 Korintiana 8
1 Ary ny amin’ ny hena aterina amin’ ny sampy, dia fantatsika fa manana fahalalana isika rehetra. Ny fahalalana mampieboebo; fa ny fitiavana no mampandroso.
To speake of thinges dedicate vnto ydols we are sure that we all have knowledge. knowledge maketh a man swell: bnt love edifieth.
2 Fa raha misy manao azy hahalala, dia tsy mbola mahalala araka izay tokony ho fantany akory izy.
If eny man thinke that he knoweth eny thinge he knoweth nothynge yet as he ought to knowe.
3 Fa raha misy tia an’ Andriamanitra, dia izy no fantany.
But yf eny man love god the same is knowen of him.
4 Ary ny amin’ ny mihinana ny hena aterina amin’ ny sampy, dia fantatsika fa tsinontsinona akory ny sampy amin’ izao tontolo izao, ary tsy misy Andriamanitra afa-tsy Iray ihany.
To speake of meate dedicat vnto ydols we are sure that ther is none ydoll in the worlde and that ther is none other god but one.
5 Fa na dia misy aza atao hoe andriamanitra, na any an-danitra, na etỳ an-tany (toy ny misy andriamanitra maro sy tompo maro);
And though ther be yt are called goddes whether in heven other in erth (as ther be goddes many and lordes many)
6 nefa amintsika kosa dia Andriamanitra iray ihany, dia ny Ray, Izay nihavian’ ny zavatra rehetra, ary ho Azy isika; ary iray ihany ny Tompo, dia Jesosy Kristy, Izay nahariana ny zavatra rehetra sady nahariana antsika koa.
yet vnto vs is there but one god which is the father of whom are all thinges and we in him: and one lorde Iesus Christ by whom are all thinges and we by him.
7 Kanefa tsy ary manana izany fahalalana izany avokoa ny olona rehetra; fa ny sasany, satria zatra amin’ ny sampy mandraka ankehitriny izao, dia homana ny hena ka mahatsiaro azy ho zavatra naterina tamin’ ny sampy; ka dia voaloto ny fieritreretany, satria malemy.
But every man hath not knowledge. For some suppose that ther is an ydoll vntyll this houre and eate as of a thinge offered vnto ye ydole and so their consciences beynge yet weake are defyled.
8 Fa ny hanina tsy hampaninona antsika amin’ Andriamanitra; fa na dia tsy homana aza isika, dia tsy matiantoka, ary na dia homana kosa aza isika, dia tsy mahazo tombony.
Meate maketh vs not acceptable to god. Nether yf we eate are we ye better. Nether yf we eate not are we the worsse.
9 Nefa tandremo, fandrao izany fahafahanareo izany ho tonga fahatafintohinana ho an’ ny malemy.
But take hede that youre libertie cause not ye weake to faule.
10 Fa raha misy mahita anao izay manam-pahalalana mipetraka mihinana ao amin’ ny tempolin’ ny sampy, tsy hampahasahy ny fieritreretan’ ny malemy hihinana izay hena aterina amin’ ny sampy koa va izany?
For yf some man se ye which hast knowledge sit at meate in the ydoles teple shall not the conscience of hym which is weake be boldened to eate those thinges which are offered vnto ye ydole?
11 Fa verin’ ny fahalalanao ny malemy, dia ny rahalahy izay navotan’ i Kristy tamin’ ny fahafatesana?
And so thorow thy knowledge shall ye weake brother perisshe for whom christ dyed.
12 Fa raha manota toy izany amin’ ny rahalahy ianareo ka manimba ny fieritreretan’ ny malemy, dia manota amin’ i Kristy ianareo.
Whe ye synne so agaynst the brethren and wounde their weake consciences ye synne agaynst Christ.
