< 1 Corinthians 11 >

1 Moi jineka Khrista laga niyom cholai, eneka nisena tumikhan bhi moi laga niyom khan koribi.
[Follow my example], just like I [try to] follow Christ’s example.
2 Etiya moi apnikhan ke prosansa kori ase kele koile apnikhan moi nimite sob to yaad kore, aru apuni laga jati laga niyom khan takot pora dhure, jineka moi apnikhan laga hathte punchai dise.
I praise you because you remember all the things [that I taught you] and because you follow the instructions that I gave you. You have done just like I told you to do.
3 Etiya moi apnikhan ke bujhai dibole mon thaka to Khrista to mota manu khan laga matha ase, aru mota khan to maiki khan laga matha ase, aru Isor to Khrista laga matha ase.
[Now], I want you to know that the one who has authority over [MTY] every man is Christ, and the ones who have authority over women are men (OR, their husbands), and the one who has authority over Christ is God.
4 Sob manu jun prathana aru bhabobani kore, etu homoi te tai laga matha te kiba jinis rakhise koile, tai laga matha ke opman kori ase.
[So] if any man [wears a covering over] his head when he prays or speaks a message God gave him, he disgraces himself [SYN].
5 Kintu kun mahila prathana aru bhabobani kore aru tai laga matha dhakikena nakore, tai laga matha ke opman kore. Kilekoile etu to eke kotha nisena ase jineka ekjon mahila tai laga matha te thaka chuli sob kati loi.
Also, if any woman does not wear a covering over her head when she prays or speaks a message that God gave her, she disgraces herself (OR, she dishonors her husband). That would be acting like [SIM] [women who are ashamed because] their heads have been shaved.
6 Kilekoile jodi ekjon mahila tai laga matha ke nadhake, tinehoile taikhan laga chuli bhi kati bole dibi. Kintu jodi mahila khan taikhan laga chuli kati bole nahoile bhi matha takulu kori bole opman lage koile, taikhan ke taikhan laga matha dhakibole kobi.
So, if women do not wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them], they should let someone shave their heads [so that they will be ashamed]. But since women are ashamed if someone cuts their hair [short] or shaves off their hair, they should wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them].
7 Kilekoile ekjon mota pora matha dhaka to thik nohoi, kelemane tai to Isor laga noksa aru mohima nisena taike bonaise. Kintu ekjon maiki to tai laga mota laga mohima ase.
Men should not wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them], because they represent what God is like [MET] and they show how great God is. But women show how great men (OR, their husbands) are.
8 Kilekoile mota manu to maiki pora nohoi. Ulta, maiki he mota manu pora ase.
[Remember that God intends that men have authority over women. We know that] because [God] did not make [the first] man, [Adam], from the [first] woman, [Eve]. Instead, he made that woman [from a bone that he took] from the man.
9 Kilekoile mota manu to maiki khan nimite bona nohoi, kintu maiki ke mota manu nimite bonaise.
Also, [God] did not create [the first] man [to help] the woman. Instead, [he] created the woman [to help] the man.
10 Etu nimite maiki khan to taikhan laga matha dhaki kene rakhibo lage, eneka hoile manu khan janibo tai mota laga adhikar te ase koi kene, aru tai eitu khan kora to sorgodoth khan nimite ase.
For that reason, women should wear something [to cover] their heads [as a symbol of their being under their husbands’] [MTY] authority. They should also [cover their heads] so that the angels [will see that and rejoice].
11 Hoilebi, Probhu logote to, maiki to mota pora ajad nohoi, aru mota bhi maiki pora ajad nohoi.
However, remember that [even though God created the first] woman from [the first] man, all other men [have been born] from women. So men cannot be independent of women, nor can women be independent of men. But all things, [including men and women], come from God.
12 Kilekoile maiki to mota manu pora ase, aru mota bhi maiki pora he ase: kintu sob jinis to Isor pora he ase.
13 Nijor pora bisar kori sabi: ekjon mahila tai laga matha nadhaki kene Isor ke prathana kora to thik ase naki?
Consider this for yourselves: Is it proper for [RHQ] women to pray to God while they do not have coverings over their heads?
14 Etu prithibi laga niyom nijor pora he apnikhan ke nasikhai, jodi ekjon mota chuli lamba kore, etu to tai nimite sorom ase nohoi?
(Everyone senses that it is disgraceful for men to have long hair./Doesn’t everyone sense that it is disgraceful for men to have long hair?) [RHQ]
15 Kintu jodi ekjon maiki chuli lamba rakhe, etu tai laga mohima ase nohoi? Kilekoile taike lamba chuli diya to taike dhakibole nimite dise.
But it is very delightful if women have long hair, because [God] gave them long hair to be like a [beautiful] covering [for their heads].
16 Kintu jodi kunba manu etu kotha khan pora mon khushi nai, amikhan logote bhi aru Isor laga girja khan te bhi aru etu pora alag dusra niyom nai.
But whoever wants to argue [with me about my saying that women should have a covering over their heads when they pray or speak a message from God should consider the fact that] we [apostles] do not [permit] any other custom, and the [other] congregations of God do not have any other custom.
17 Kintu etiya moi kobole thaka adesh khan, moi apnikhan ke prosansa kora nohoi, apnikhan eke logote aha to, bhal hobole nohoi, kintu bisi biya nimite.
Now I want to tell you [about some other things]. I do not praise you about them, because whenever you believers meet together, good [things do not happen]. Instead, bad things [happen].
18 Kilekoile sob pora age te, moi etu huni bole paise jitia apnikhan girja te eke logote joma hoi, apnikhan majote mon namili kene alag thake, aru etu kotha ke biswas kori bole tan nai.
First of all, people have told me that when you gather together as a group [to worship God], you divide into groups [that are hostile to each other]. To some extent I believe that is true.
19 Kelemane kunba biswasi khan nijor dimag cholai kene kun he asol biswasi ase koi kene sabole, alag dol khan shuru kori bole bhabe.
It seems that you must divide into [groups that despise each other] in order that it might be clear/evident which people among you [God] approves of!
20 Kelemane jitia apnikhan ekta jagate eke logote ahe, etu to Probhu laga Bhoj kha luwa kori bole nahe.
When you gather together, you [IRO] eat the meal [that you say is to remember the death of] the Lord [Jesus for us].
21 Kilekoile jitia kha luwa kora somoi hobo, sob manu nijor laga kha luwa to poila khai loi; kunba to khabole napaikena bhuka thake, aru kunba to bisi khai kene nisa hoi kene thake.
But [what happens when] you eat is that each person eats his own meal before [he thinks about sharing his food with anyone else]. As a result, [when the meal is over], some people are [still] hungry and others are drunk! [So it is not a meal that honors the Lord].
22 Kilekoile apnikhan kha luwa kori bole nimite nijor ghor nai naki? Na apnikhan Isor laga girja ke ghin kore aru gorib manu khan ke sorom khilai?
([You act as though] you do not have your own houses in which you can eat and drink [whatever you want to]!/Do you not have your own houses in which you can eat and drink [whatever you want to]?) [RHQ] Do you not realize [RHQ] [that by acting selfishly in this way], it is God’s people whom you are despising, and it is the poor people [in your group] whom you are treating as though they were not important? What shall I say to you about that [RHQ]? Do [you expect] me to praise you [about what you do] [RHQ]? I certainly will not praise you!
23 Kilekoile moike Probhu pora ki dise etu moi apnikhan ke di ase, Probhu Jisu he, Taike thogai diya rati te, roti loise,
The Lord taught me these things that I also taught you: During the night that Jesus was betrayed {[Judas] enabled [the enemies of] the Lord Jesus to seize him}, he took some bread.
24 aru Tai dhanyavad dise, aru Tai bhangai kene koise, “Etu Moi laga khun ase, juntu tumikhan nimite ase. Moike yaad kori kene etu koribi.”
After he thanked God for it, he broke it into pieces. [Then he gave it to his disciples] and said, “This bread [represents] [MET] (OR, is) my body, that [I am about to sacrifice] for you. Eat bread in this [way again and again] to remember my [offering myself as a sacrifice for you].”
25 Thik etu nisena, Tai bhi kha luwa kora pichete kup to loise, eneka koi kene, “Etu kup to Ami laga khun te ekta notun laga vachan ase. Apnikhan kiman bar etu pibo, Moike yaad kori kene etu koribi.”
Similarly, after they ate their meal, he took a cup [MTY] [of wine]. He [thanked God for it. Then he gave it to his disciples], saying, “[The wine in] [MTY] this cup [represents] [MET] (OR, is) my blood [that will flow from my body] ([to put into effect/to establish]) the new agreement [that God is making with people]. Whenever you drink wine in this way, do it to remember that [my blood flowed for you].”
26 Kilekoile hodai jitia apnikhan etu roti pora khabi aru etu kup pora pibo, apnikhan Probhu mora laga khobor to prochar kori thakibo jitia tak Tai wapas nahhe.
[Remember that] until the Lord [Jesus] returns [to the earth], whenever you eat the [bread that represents his body] and drink the wine [MTY] [that represents his blood], you are telling other people that he died [for you].
27 Etu karone, jun hoilebi, thik pora nabuji kene Probhu laga roti khai nohoile kup pora pi loi, tai to Probhu laga gaw aru Tai laga khun age te te golti hobo.
So, those who eat that bread and drink that wine [MTY] in a way that is not proper [for those who belong to the Lord] are guilty of [acting in a way that is contrary to what] our [Lord intended when he offered] his body [as a sacrifice] and his blood [flowed when he died].
28 Kintu ekjon manu tai nijorke poila sai lobole dibi, aru etu nisena taike roti khabole aru kup pora pibole dibi.
Before any believer eats that bread and drinks that wine [MTY], he should think carefully about [what he is doing],
29 Kilekoile jun manu tai nijor gaw ke bhal pora nasai kene khai aru pi loi, tai to nijorke bisar kora laga khai loi aru pi loi.
because if anyone eats [the bread that represents Christ’s body] and drinks [the wine that represents his blood] without recognizing that all God’s [people should be united, God will] punish him [for doing that].
30 Etu nimite apnikhan majote bisi manu komjur aru bemar ase, aru bisi manu ghumai kene ase.
Many people in your group are weak and sick, and several have died [EUP] because of [the way they acted when they ate that bread and drank that wine].
31 Kintu jitia amikhan nijorke sai, amikhan ke bisar nahobo.
If we would think carefully about what we [are doing], [God] would not judge [and punish] us [like that].
32 Kintu jitia amikhan ke Probhu pora bisar kore, etu amikhan ke sidha kori bole nimite ase, eneka hoile amikhan ke prithibi logote bodnam nohobo.
But when the Lord judges [and punishes] us [for acting wrongly], he disciplines us [to correct us], in order that he will not [need to] punish us when he punishes [the people who do not trust in Christ] [MTY].
33 Etu karone, moi laga bhai khan, jitia apnikhan eke logote Probhu laga Bhojan khabole ahe, ekjon-ekjon nimite rukhi bhi.
So, my fellow believers, when you gather together to eat [food to remember the Lord’s dying for you], wait until everyone [has arrived so that you can find out who does not have enough food].
34 Jodi kunba ekjon bhuk lagi thakile, taike ghor te khabole dibi, eneka hoile tumi duijon Isor laga bisar te eke logote nahibo. Aru apnikhan pora dusra kiba likha khan to, moi aha pichete apnikhan ke dikhai dibo.
Those who are so hungry [that they cannot wait to eat until everyone else has arrived] should eat in their own homes [first], in order that when you gather together God will not judge [and punish them for] ([being inconsiderate of/not being concerned about]) [others]. And when I come [to Corinth] I will give you instructions about other matters [concerning the Lord’s Supper].
