1 Qorontos 10
1 Yaa obboloota, akka abbootiin keenya hundi duumessa jala turan, akka hundi isaaniis galaana keessa darban akka isin utuu hin beekin haftan ani hin barbaadu.
MOREOVER, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
2 Hundi isaaniis kan Musee taʼuuf duumessaa fi galaanaan cuuphaman.
And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
3 Hundi isaaniis nyaata hafuuraa tokkicha nyaatan.
And did all eat the same spiritual meat;
4 Hundi isaaniis dhugaatii hafuuraa tokkicha dhugan. Isaan kattaa hafuuraa isa isaan wajjin deemaa ture irraa dhuganiiruutii; kattaan sunis Kiristoos ture.
And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
5 Taʼu iyyuu waan Waaqni hedduu isaaniitti hin gammadiniif isaan lafa gammoojjii keessatti dhuman.
But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
6 Wantoonni kunneen akka nu akkuma isaanii waan hamaa hin hawwineef fakkeenya nuu taʼan.
Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.
7 Akka isaan keessaa namoonni tokko tokko godhan sana isin waaqota tolfamoo hin waaqeffatinaa; kunis akkuma, “Namoonni nyaachuu fi dhuguuf tataaʼan; sirbuufis kaʼan” jedhamee barreeffamee dha.
Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
8 Akka isaan keessaa namoonni tokko tokko halalummaa raawwatanii guyyaa tokkotti namoonni 23,000 dhuman sana, nu halalummaa raawwachuu hin qabnu.
Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
9 Akka isaan keessaa tokko tokko Gooftaa qoranii bofaan ajjeefaman sana nu Gooftaa qoruu hin qabnu.
Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.
10 Isin akka isaan keessaa tokko tokko guungumanii isa nama balleessuun balleeffaman sana hin guunguminaa.
Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.
11 Kun hundi akka fakkeenya taʼuuf isaan irratti raawwatame; nuu warra dhumni baraa itti dhufeef immoo akka of eeggannaa taʼuuf barreeffame. (aiōn g165)
Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come. (aiōn g165)
12 Kanaafuu namni waan dhaabate of seʼu akka hin kufneef of haa eeggatu.
Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.
13 Qorama nama irra gaʼu malee qoramni tokko iyyuu isinitti hin dhufne. Waaqnis amanamaa dha; inni akka isin waan baachuu hin dandeenyeen qoramtan isin hin godhu. Yommuu qoramtanitti garuu inni akka isin obsuu dandeessaniif karaa ittiin keessaa baatan isiniif qopheessa.
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
14 Kanaafuu yaa michoota ko, isin waaqota tolfamoo waaqeffachuu irraa baqadhaa.
Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.
15 Ani namoota hubannaa qabanittin dubbadha; waan ani dubbadhu isinuu murteessaa.
I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.
16 Xoofoon eebbaa kan nu eebbifnu sun dhiiga Kiristoos wajjin tokkummaa qaba mitii? Buddeenni nu caccabsinu sunis foon Kiristoos wajjin tokkummaa qaba mitii?
The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?
17 Waan buddeenni tokko qofti jiruuf, nu baayʼee taanu iyyuu dhagnuma tokko; hundi keenya buddeenuma tokkicha sana irraa hirmaannaatii.
For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.
18 Mee saba Israaʼel ilaalaa: Warri aarsaa irraa nyaatan sun iddoo aarsaa irraa qooda qabu mitii?
Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?
19 Egaa maal jechuu koo ti? Nyaanni waaqota tolfamoof aarsaa dhiʼeeffamu wayi moo ree yookaan Waaqni tolfamaan wayi moo ree jechuu kootii?
What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?
20 Akkas miti; aarsaan namoonni ormaa dhiʼeessan hafuurota hamoodhaaf malee Waaqaaf miti; ani akka isin hafuurota hamoo wajjin tokkummaa qabaattan hin barbaadu.
But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.
21 Isin xoofoo Gooftaatii fi xoofoo hafuurota hamoo dhuguu hin dandeessan; maaddii Gooftaatii fi maaddii hafuurota hamoo irrattis hirmaachuu hin dandeessan.
Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils.
22 Nu Gooftaa hinaaffaaf kakaafnaa? Nu isa caalaas jabaannaa?
Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
23 “Wanni hundinuu anaaf eeyyamamaa dha;” kan faayidaa qabu garuu waan hunda miti. “Wanni hundinuu anaaf eeyyamamaa dha;” kan nama fayyadu garuu waan hunda miti.
All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
24 Namni tokko iyyuu waan warra kaaniif gaarii taʼe barbaaduu qaba malee waan ofii isaatiif gaarii taʼe barbaaduu hin qabu.
Let no man seek his own, but every man another’s wealth.
25 Utuu gaaffii qalbii keessaa tokko illee hin kaasin waan gabaa fooniitti gurguramu kam iyyuu nyaadhaa;
Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, that eat, asking no question for conscience sake:
26 “Laftii fi wanni lafa irra jiru hundinuu kan Gooftaatii.”
For the earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof.
27 Warra hin amanin keessaa yoo namni tokko nyaataaf isin affeere, isinis yoo dhaquu barbaaddan dhaqaa; utuu gaaffii qalbii keessaa tokko illee hin kaasin waan isin duratti dhiʼeeffame kam iyyuu nyaadhaa.
If any of them that believe not bid you to a feast, and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake.
28 Garuu yoo namni tokko, “Kun waaqota tolfamoodhaaf dhiʼeeffame” isiniin jedhe, sababii namicha isinitti hime sanaatii fi sababii qalbiitiif waan sana hin nyaatinaa.
But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof:
29 Kanas qalbii namicha sanaati malee kan keeti jechuu koo miti. Maaliif qalbii nama biraatiin bilisummaa kootti murama ree?
Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another man’s conscience?
30 Ani ergan galateeffachuudhaan nyaata sana irratti hirmaadhee maaliifan waan ittiin Waaqa galateeffadhuun balaaleffatama ree?
For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?
31 Kanaafuu yoo nyaattan yookaan yoo dhugdan yookaan yoo waanuma fedhe illee hojjettan waan hunda ulfina Waaqaatiif hojjedhaa.
Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
32 Yihuudoota yookaan Giriikota yookaan waldaa kiristaanaa kan Waaqaa hin gufachiisinaa;
Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God:
33 kunis akkuma ani nama hunda karaa hundaan gammachiisuuf yaalii godhutti jechuu dha. Ani akka isaan fayyaniif buʼaa namoota baayʼeetiif malee buʼaa kootiif jedhee waan kana hin godhu.
Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.
